Note 3 — Public Offering

 

Public Unit

 

On August 14, 2017, the Company sold 4,000,000 Public Units at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit in the Public Offering generating gross proceeds of $40,000,000. Each Public Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Public Shares”), and one right (the “Public Rights”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon consummation of an initial Business Combination.

 

On August 16, 2017, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part. The closing of the sale of 425,000 over-allotment option Units generating gross proceeds of $4,250,000 took place on August 21, 2017.

 

If the Company does not complete its Business Combination within the necessary time period described in Note 1, the Public Rights will expire and be worthless. Since the Company is not required to net cash settle the Rights and the Rights are convertible upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination, management determined that the Rights are classified within shareholders’ equity as “Additional paid-in capital” upon their issuance in accordance with ASC 815-40. The proceeds from the sale are allocated to Public Shares and Rights based on the relative fair value of the securities in accordance with ASC 470-20-30. The value of the Public Shares and Rights will be based on the closing price paid by investors.

 

At the closing of the Public Offering and over-allotment option, the Company paid an upfront underwriting discount of $1,200,000 and $127,500, 3.0% of the per unit offering price to the underwriter, respectively, with an additional fee of $1,000,000 and $106,250 (the “Deferred Discount”), 2.5% of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the Company’s completion of the Business Combination, respectively. The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Business Combination. In the event that the Company does not close a Business Combination, the underwriter has waived its right to receive the Deferred Discount. The underwriter is not entitled to any interest accrued on the Deferred Discount. Total offering costs were $1,851,217, which consist of $1,327,500 of underwriter’s commissions and $523,717 of other offering costs.

 

Purchase Option

 

On August 14, 2017, the Company sold the underwriters, for $100, a unit purchase option to purchase up to a total of 250,000 Units exercisable at $10.50 per Unit (or an aggregate exercise price of $2,625,000) commencing on the later of the consummation of a Business Combination and six months from February 8, 2018. The unit purchase option expires on August 8, 2022. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to the Units being offered in the Public Offering. The Company has agreed to grant to the holders of the unit purchase option, demand and “piggy back” registration rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the effective date of the Public Offering, including securities directly and indirectly issuable upon exercise of the unit purchase option.
