The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $250,000,000. Further, in connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 333-253105) for the IPO, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2021, as amended (the “Registration Statement”):

a Warrant Agreement, dated March 23, 2021, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agreement”), which sets forth the expiration and exercise price of and procedure for exercising the Warrants; certain adjustment features of the terms of exercise; provisions relating to redemption and cashless exercise of the Warrants; certain registration rights of the holders of Warrants; provision for amendments to the Warrant Agreement; and indemnification of the warrant agent by the Company under the agreement;

a Registration Rights Agreement, dated March 23, 2021, among the Company, the Sponsor and certain security holders of the Company, which provides for customary demand and piggy-back registration rights for the Sponsor, and customary piggy-back registration rights for such other security holders, as well as certain transfer restrictions applicable to the Sponsor with respect to the Company’s securities, and, upon and following consummation of our initial business combination, the right of the Sponsor to nominate three individuals for election to the Company’s board of directors;

 

   

Letter Agreement, dated March 23, 2021, among the Company, the Sponsor and each executive officer and director of the Company and certain other officers of an affiliate of the Sponsor and an advisor of the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor and each executive officer and director of the Company and such officers of an affiliate of the Sponsor and an advisor of the Sponsor has agreed to vote any Class A Ordinary Shares held by him, her or it in favor of the Company’s initial business combination; to facilitate the liquidation and winding up of the Company if an initial business combination is not consummated within 24 months; to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Company’s securities; to certain indemnification obligations of the Sponsor; and the Company has agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination without the prior consent of the Sponsor;

Item 3.02.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Simultaneous with the consummation of the IPO and the issuance and sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement of 4,666,667 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $7,000,000 (the “Private Placement”).

to the Public Warrants, except that if held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, they (i) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, (ii) are not subject to being called for redemption (except in certain circumstances when the Public Warrants are called for redemption and a certain price per Class A Ordinary Share threshold is met) and (iii) subject to certain limited exceptions, will be subject to transfer restrictions until 30 days following the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. The Private Placement Warrants have been issued pursuant to, and are governed by the Warrant Agreement.

On March 23, 2021 and in connection with the IPO, the Company adopted its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

Except for the withdrawal from interest earned on the Offering Proceeds in the trust account that may be released to pay income taxes, if any, none of the funds held in the trust account will be released until the earlier of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to consummate an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (a) to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (b) with respect to any other provisions relating to shareholders’ rights.
