As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K of Eucrates Biomedical Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), on October 27, 2020, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 10,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, no par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one-third of one warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $100,000,000. The Company granted Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, the underwriters of the IPO, (the “Representatives”) a 45 day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 20, 2020, the Representatives partially exercised the over-allotment option and on November 24, 2020, purchased an additional 479,626 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating gross proceeds of $4,796,260.
As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company, substantially concurrent with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Unit Subscription Agreement, dated October 23, 2020, by and between the Company and Eucrates LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 350,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,500,000. In connection with the Representatives’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option, the Sponsor purchased an additional 9,592 Private Placement Units, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $95,925.
In connection with the closing and sale of the Over-Allotment Units and 9,592 additional Private Placement Units (together, the “Over-Allotment Closing”), a total of $4,796,260 comprised of $4,700,335 of the proceeds from the closing and sale of the Over-Allotment Units (which amount includes $167,869 of the Representatives’ deferred discount) and $95,925 of the proceeds of the sale of the additional 9,592 Private Placement Units, 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.
An audited balance sheet as of October 27, 2020 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and previously filed as Exhibit 99.1 to a Current Report on Form 8-K on November 2, 2020. The Company’s unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of October 27, 2020, adjusted for the Over-Allotment Closing on November 24, 2020 is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
