On June 25, 2021, Coliseum Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 15,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (each, an “Ordinary Share”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each, a “Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-254513) related to the IPO, originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 19, 2021 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”):

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants included in the Units sold as part of the Units in the IPO, except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement.
