EG Acquisition registered with the SEC to offer 25 million units, each consisting of one share of Class A common stock and one-third of one redeemable warrant; whole warrants exercisable at $11.50.
The founders’ shares are subject to a three-year lockup, the SPAC noted in the filing.
“Our sponsor believes that this longer lock-up period should better align the interests of the sponsor with those of our investors, and should also provide a competitive advantage when approaching potential target companies, compared to special purpose acquisition companies where the founder shares are subject to a shorter lockup period,” the SPAC said in the filing.
The blank-check company said it will find a merger target by drawing on management’s experience in financial services and asset management; businesses focusing on clean energy and sustainability; transportation and transportation-related businesses; real estate; and healthcare.
EG Acquisition is led by CEO and Director Gregg Hymowitz, chairman and CEO of investment firm EnTrust Global.
