On July 16, 2020, Artius Acquisition Inc. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 72,450,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 9,450,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in full of their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $724,500,000.
Substantially concurrently with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 11,326,667 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a purchase price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, to the Company’s sponsor, Artius Acquisition Partners LLC, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $16,990,000.
A total of $724,500,000, comprised of $710,010,000 of the proceeds from the IPO, including approximately $25,357,500 of the underwriters’ deferred discount, and $14,490,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, were placed in a trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
