Item 8.01 Other Events
On March 26, 2012, BGS Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 4,000,000 Units (“Units”), each Unit consisting of one ordinary share, no par value per share (“Ordinary Share”), and a Warrant (“Warrants”) to purchase one Ordinary Share, pursuant to the registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-178780) (“Registration Statement”). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $40,000,000.
Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 3,266,667 warrants (“Placement Warrants”) to certain initial holders and the lead underwriter of the IPO, generating gross proceeds of $2,450,000.
The Placement Warrants are substantially similar to the Warrants, except that if held by the original holder or their permitted assigns, they (i) are not subject to being called for redemption and (ii) subject to certain limited exceptions, will be subject to transfer restrictions until 30 days following the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. If the Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the initial holders or permitted transferees of the initial holders, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Warrants included in the Units sold in the IPO.
A total of $40,600,000 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 March 26, 2012 reflecting receipt of the proceeds from consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report on Form 6-K.
