Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On March 12, 2021, Vector Acquisition Corporation II (the “Company,” “we” or “our”) consummated an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 45,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), at an offering price of $10.00 per share and a private placement with Vector Acquisition Partners II, L.P. of 1,100,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at an offering price of $10.00 per share. The net proceeds from the IPO together with certain of the proceeds from the private placement, $450,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Offering Proceeds”), were placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and the underwriters of the IPO with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. Except for the withdrawal of interest income (if any) to pay our income taxes, if any, none of the funds held in trust will be released from the trust account until the earliest of: (i) the completion of our initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of our public shares if we have not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, and (iii) the redemption of our public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares.

 

An audited balance sheet as of March 12, 2021 reflecting receipt of the Offering Proceeds has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
