Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 30, 2020, Atlas Crest Investment Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 50,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one-third 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. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000,000. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 7,500,000 additional Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any.
On October 30, 2020, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 8,000,000 warrants to Atlas Crest Investment LLC (the “Sponsor”) at a purchase price of $1.50 per warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $12,000,000.
A total of $500,000,000, comprised of $490,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and $10,000,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
An audited balance sheet as of October 30, 2020 reflecting the receipt of the proceeds upon the consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
