Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 15, 2020, Globis Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 11,500,000 units (the “Units”), which included the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase an additional 1,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, on December 15, 2020. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrant”), with each Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000 (before underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses).
As also previously disclosed, simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private sale of 4,188,889 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $0.75 per Private Placement Warrant to Globis SPAC LLC and Up and Up Capital, LLC, generating gross proceeds of $3,141,667. In addition, Up and Up Capital, LLC purchased an aggregate of 100,833 units (the “Placement Units”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, or $1,008,333 in the aggregate (collectively with the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, the “Private Placements”).
The net proceeds from the IPO, together with certain of the proceeds from the Private Placements, $116,150,000 in the aggregate, were placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders with Wilmington Trust Company acting as trustee. An audited balance sheet as of December 15, 2020 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placements has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
