Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 25, 2021, the registration statement (File No. 333-255046) (the “Registration Statement”) relating to the initial public offering (“IPO”) of EG Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. In connection therewith, the Company entered into the following agreements previously filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement:
| • | An Underwriting Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and between the Company and BTIG, LLC (“BTIG”), as representative of the underwriters; |
| • | A Warrant Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company; |
| • | An Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and the Company; |
| • | A Registration and Stockholder Rights Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and among the Company, EG Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and BTIG; |
| • | A Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and between the Company and the Sponsor; |
| • | Indemnity Agreements, dated May 25, 2021, by and among the Company and each of the directors and officers of the Company; |
| • | An Administrative Services Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, between the Company and the Sponsor; |
| • | A Letter Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and among the Company, the Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors; and |
| • | A Forward Purchase Agreement, dated May 25, 2021, by and between the Company and the forward purchaser. |
The above descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the applicable agreement, each of which is incorporated by reference herein and filed herewith as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 and 10.13, respectively.
On May 28, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 22,500,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Class A Share”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant (“Warrant”) entitling its holder to purchase one Class A Share at a price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a public offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $225,000,000.
As of May 28, 2021, a total of $225,000,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement (as defined below) were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders. An audited balance sheet as of May 28, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement will be filed within 4 business days of the consummation of the IPO.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Sponsor Private Placement”) with the Sponsor of an aggregate of 4,333,333 warrants (“Sponsor Private Warrants”) to purchase 4,333,333 Class A Shares, each at a price of $1.50 per Sponsor Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $6,500,000.
The Private Warrants are identical to the warrants sold in the IPO except that the Private Warrants will be non-redeemable and may be exercised on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they continue to be held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. Additionally, such initial purchasers agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Warrants or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Registration Statement) until three years after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. Such initial purchasers were granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Warrants.
The Sponsor Private Warrants were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On May 25, 2021, in connection with the IPO, the Company filed its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. The terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation are set forth in the Registration Statement and are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On May 26, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the IPO, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
