On March 5, 2021, Hennessy Capital Investment Corp.

No fractional Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade.

The Units not separated will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “HCICU.” Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate the Units into shares of Class A Common Stock and Warrants.
