Item 8.01. Other Events

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 7, 2021, on April 12, 2021 Model Performance Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated the IPO of 5,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share (“Ordinary Share”), one-half of one warrant (“Warrant”) entitling its holder to purchase one Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per whole share and one right (“Right”) to receive one-tenth of one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Company granted the underwriters of the IPO (the “Underwriters”) a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 units at the IPO price to cover over-allotments, which was subsequently exercised on April 12, 2021 (the “Over-Allotment Option”). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $50,000,000.

On April 15, 2021, the Over-Allotment Option closed. The total aggregate issuance by the Company of the Over-Allotment Option Units at a price of $10.00 per unit resulted in total gross proceeds of $7,500,000. On April 15, 2021, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company consummated the private sale of an additional 22,500 private Units, generating gross proceeds of $225,000. The Private Units 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.

As of April 12, 2021, a total of $50,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the private placement consummated simultaneously with the closing of the IPO were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders. As of April 15, 2021, a total of $57,500,000 of the proceeds from the IPO (including the Over-allotment Option) and the private placement consummated simultaneously with the closing of the IPO were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders.

An audited balance sheet as of April 12, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the private placement is included with this report as Exhibit 99.1

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
