On August 6, 2021, AMCI Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 15,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000.
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 (File No. 333-253107) for the IPO, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 12, 2021 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”):
