The information included in Item 8.01 is incorporated into this Item by reference.

 

The shares of Class A Common Stock (as defined below) were offered and sold in a private placement on November 12, 2020 in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The purchaser represented that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D. The shares of Class A Common Stock issued in the private placement were offered without any general solicitation by the Company (as defined below) or its representatives.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 2020, on October 16, 2020, 5:01 Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 8,000,000 shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), generating gross proceeds to the Company of $80,000,000. The Company granted the underwriter in the IPO a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,200,000 additional shares of Class A Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any.

 

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 360,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to the Company’s sponsor, 5:01 Acquisition LLC, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,600,000.

 

Subsequently, on November 9, 2020, the underwriter exercised the over-allotment option in part, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the additional 256,273 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Over-Allotment Shares”) occurred on November 12, 2020. In connection with the over-allotment exercise, the Company issued 256,273 Over-Allotment Shares at a price of $10.00 per share, generating total gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million. After giving effect to the issuance of the Over-Allotment Shares, the over-allotment option remains exercisable for up to 943,727 shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the sale of the Over-Allotment Shares, the Company completed the private sale of 5,126 shares of Class A Common Stock to the Company’s sponsor, 5:01 Acquisition LLC, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $51,260.

 

A total of $82.6 million of the net proceeds from the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock in the IPO (including the Over-Allotment Shares) and the private placements on October 16, 2020 and November 12, 2020 were placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders.

 

Included with this report as Exhibit 99.1 is a pro-forma balance sheet reflecting the partial exercise of the over-allotment option.
