Amendment No. 1 to Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1

Filed November 26, 2019

CIK 0001790121

 

Dear Mr. Alper:

 

Ackrell SPAC Partners I Co. (the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) hereby transmits its response to the comment letter received from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), dated December 4, 2019, regarding the amended Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed November 26, 2019.

 

For the Staff’s convenience, we have repeated below the Staff’s comments in bold, and have followed each comment with the Company’s response.

 

In addition, we respectfully inform the Staff that the unit structure has changed. Originally each unit contained a share of common stock and a half-warrant; it currently consists of a unit containing a subunit and a half warrant, and each subunit contains a share of common stock and a half-warrant. Each whole warrant still entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock, no fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade; however upon separation of the units, only subunits will trade and the common stock will not trade separately unless and until we consummate an initial business combination.
