Item 8.01.
Other Events.

On November 22, 2021, bleuacacia ltd (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 27,600,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 3,600,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, one right (“Right”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”). Each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-sixteenth (1/16) of one Class A ordinary share, and as a result, the holder must have 16 Rights in order to receive a Class A ordinary share at the closing of the initial business combination. 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. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $276,000,000.

On November 22, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 7,520,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to bleuacacia sponsor LLC at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,520,000.

A total of $276,000,000, comprised of $270,480,000 of the proceeds from the IPO (which amount includes $9,660,000 of the underwriters’ deferred discount) and $5,520,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee.

An audited balance sheet as of November 22, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
