As previously reported on April 18, 2022, Aura FAT Projects Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 11,500,000 units (“Units”), including the issuance of 1,500,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of its over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Share”), and one redeemable warrant (“Warrant”), each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-263717). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000.
As previously reported, on April 18, 2022, simultaneously with the consummation of the Offering, the Company completed a private placement of an aggregate of 5,000,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $5,000,000 (the “Private Placement”). A total of $117,300,000, comprised of the proceeds from the Offering and the proceeds of the Private Placement, net of the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses, was deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders.
On June 2, 2022, the Company issued a press release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, announcing that the holders of the Units may elect to separately trade the shares of Class A Common Stock and the Warrants comprising the Units commencing on June 3, 2022. Those Units not separated will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “AFARU,” and the Class A Common Stock and Warrants that are separated will trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbols “AFAR” and “AFARW,” respectively. Holders of Units will need to instruct their brokers to contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, to separate their Units into shares of Class A Common Stock and Warrants.
