On February 12, 2021, Lazard Growth Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 57,500,000 units (the “Units”), including 7,500,000 Units sold upon exercise in full of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), with each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $575,000,000.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the issuance and sale of the Units, the Company consummated the sale to the Company’s sponsor, LGACo 1 LLC, of 9,000,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), with each Private Placement Warrant exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share subject to adjustment, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $13,500,000.

A total of $575,000,000, comprised of $563,500,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and $11,500,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
