SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED November 12, 2021
PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS
Sieger Healthcare Acquisition Corp
$75,000,000
7,500,000 Units
Sieger Healthcare Acquisition Corp is a newly incorporated blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to as our initial business combination. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, engaged in any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with us.
This is an initial public offering of our securities. Each unit has an offering price of $10.00 and consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. Only whole warrants are exercisable. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. The warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination or 12 months from the closing of this offering, and will expire five years after the completion of our initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or our liquidation, as described herein. The underwriters have a 45-day option from the date of this prospectus to purchase up to an additional 1,125,000 units to cover over-allotments, if any.
We will provide our public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A ordinary shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account described below as of two business days prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Class A ordinary shares that were sold as part of the units in this offering, which we refer to collectively as our public shares, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described herein.
We will have 18 months from the closing of this offering to consummate an initial business combination. However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within 18 months, we may, but are not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to six times by an additional one month each time (for a total of up to 24 months to complete a business combination), as described in more detail in this prospectus. Public shareholders will not be offered the opportunity to vote on or redeem their shares in connection with any such extension. If we are unable to consummate our initial business combination within the above time period, we will redeem 100% of the public shares at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account (less taxes payable and up to $75,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and certain conditions as further described herein.
Our sponsor, Sieger Healthcare LLC, has committed to purchase an aggregate of 2,833,333 warrants (or 2,983,333 warrants if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, at a price of $1.50 per warrant, or $4,250,000 in the aggregate (or $4,475,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), in a private placement that will close simultaneously with the closing of this offering.
Our initial shareholders currently own 2,531,250 Class B ordinary shares, up to 281,250 of which will be surrendered to us by our sponsor, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for no consideration after the closing of this offering depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised and including 375,000 Class B ordinary shares issued in connection with the forward purchase agreements described below. The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of our initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to the adjustments described herein. Only holders of Class B ordinary shares will have the right to appoint directors in any general meeting held prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. On any other matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders, holders of the Class B ordinary shares and holders of the Class A ordinary shares will vote together as a single class, except as required by law.
In November 2021, certain institutional accredited investors, which we refer to collectively as the forward purchasers, entered into forward purchase agreements with us that provide for the purchase by the forward purchasers of an aggregate of 1,500,000 forward purchase units, with each forward purchase unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000,000, or $10.00 per unit, in a private placement to close concurrently with the closing of our initial business combination. We issued 375,000 additional Class B ordinary shares to our sponsor, which represent the adjustment to the ratio applicable to the conversion of the Class B ordinary shares that our sponsor would have been entitled to at the closing of our initial business combination as a result of the issuance of 1,500,000 additional Class A ordinary shares under the forward purchase agreements. As a result, the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares at the closing of our initial business combination will not trigger a further adjustment to this ratio. Further, prior to this offering, our sponsor transferred an aggregate of 150,000 Class B ordinary shares to the forward purchasers for no cash consideration, which represent 6.7% of the Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding immediately after this offering (assuming no exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option). As a result of the foregoing, and our sponsor’s transfer of 118,125 Class B ordinary shares to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and independent directors prior to this offering, our sponsor will own 2,263,125 Class B ordinary shares prior to this offering, up to 275,625 of which will be surrendered to us by our sponsor for no consideration after the closing of this offering depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised. The total number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding after this offering and the expiration of the underwriter’s over-allotment option, which includes the 375,000 Class B ordinary shares issued in connection with the forward purchase agreements, will equal 20% of the sum of the total number of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares outstanding at such time plus the 1,500,000 Class A ordinary shares to be sold pursuant to the forward purchase agreements. In addition, concurrent with the closing of this offering, our sponsor will transfer an aggregate 37,500 private placement warrants to the forward purchasers for no cash consideration. None of the forward purchasers are affiliated with our sponsor or any member of our management.
Certain qualified institutional buyers or institutional accredited investors who are not affiliated with our sponsor or any member of our management, which we refer to as the anchor investors, have expressed to us an interest to purchase up to an aggregate of 7,500,000 units in this offering, representing in the aggregate up to 100% of the units in this offering (or 87.0% of the units in this offering if the underwriter exercises the over-allotment option in full) at the offering price. Because this indication of interest is not a binding agreement or commitment to purchase, our anchor investors may determine to purchase more, fewer or no units in this offering or the underwriter may determine to sell more, fewer or no units to the anchor investors. See “Summary—The Offering—Expressions of Interest.”
Currently, there is no public market for our units, Class A ordinary shares or warrants. We have applied to have our units listed on the NASDAQ Global Market, or NASDAQ, under the symbol “SIGQU” . We expect the Class A ordinary shares and warrants comprising the units to begin separate trading on the 52nd day following the date of this prospectus (or, if such date is not a business day, the following business day) unless Piper Sandler & Co. (the “underwriter”), inform us of their decision to allow earlier separate trading, subject to our satisfaction of certain conditions as described further herein. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, we expect that the Class A ordinary shares and warrants will be listed on NASDAQ under the symbols “SIGQ” and “SIGQW,” respectively.
We are an “emerging growth company” under applicable federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page
39 for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities. Investors will not be entitled to protections normally afforded to investors in Rule 419 blank check offerings.
Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
