| Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
On January 7, 2021, Crucible Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) completed its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 25,875,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 3,375,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s exercise of its option to purchase additional Units in full. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of the Company. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $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 $258,750,000.
Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 4,783,333 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to the Company’s sponsor, Foundry Crucible I, LLC (the “Sponsor”), at a purchase price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,175,000. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the warrants sold as part of the Units in the IPO except that, as long as the Sponsor or its permitted transferees beneficially own the Private Placement Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants (including the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Private Placement Warrants) are subject to certain transfer restrictions and the holders thereof are entitled to certain registration rights, and: (1) will not be redeemable by the Company (except as described in the Company’s prospectus); and (2) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis.
A total of $258,750,000, comprised of proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of: (1) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination; (2) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company's second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to allow redemptions in connection with its initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity; and (3) the redemption of all of the Company’s public shares if it is unable to complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law.
In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, the forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company registration statement (File No. 333-251495):
