Item 8.01. Other Events

 

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 14, 2021, on June 11, 2021, Global Consumer Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated the IPO of 17,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”) and one half of one redeemable warrant (“Warrants”), with each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to certain adjustment as described in the registrant’s final prospectus filed with the SEC on June 10, 2021 (the “Prospectus”). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $170,000,000. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 2,550,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with Global Consumer Acquisition LLC of 431,510 units (the “Private Units”), generating total proceeds of $4,315,100. The Private Units are identical to the Units sold as part of the public Units in this offering. Additionally, such initial purchasers agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Prospectus) until 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 Units. 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 June 11, 2021, a total of $170,850,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the private placement were placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders.

 

An audited balance sheet as of June 11, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the private placement is included with this report as Exhibit 99.1.
