Corporate Information
On August 16, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Spire Global Subsidiary, Inc. (formerly known as Spire Global, Inc.) (“Old Spire”) closed its Merger with NavSight Holdings, Inc. (“NavSight”), a special purpose acquisition company, pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2021, by and among Spire, NavSight, NavSight Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NavSight (“NavSight Merger Sub”), and Peter Platzer, Theresa Condor, Jeroen Cappaert, and Joel Spark. As a result, NavSight Merger Sub merged with and into Old Spire, the separate corporate existence of NavSight Merger Sub ceased, and Old Spire continued as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of NavSight (the “Merger” and, such consummation, the “Closing”). NavSight then changed its name to Spire Global, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiary, “New Spire” or “Spire”) and Old Spire changed its name to Spire Global Subsidiary, Inc. Before the Merger, NavSight’s shares and warrants were traded on the NYSE under the ticker symbols “NSH” and “NSH.WS”, respectively. On the Closing Date, Spire’s Class A Common Stock and Public Warrants began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbols “SPIR” and “SPIR.WS”, respectively. Old Spire was incorporated in 2012 as a Delaware corporation under the name NanoSatisfi, Inc., which was changed to Spire Global, Inc. in 2015. NavSight Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in May 2020 as a Delaware corporation and a special purpose acquisition company and, on September 9, 2020, completed its initial public offering.

As of November 14, 2022, 18,099,982 Warrants are outstanding, consisting of 11,499,982 Public Warrants and 6,600,000 Private Warrants. Both the Private and Public Warrants were issued as part of the IPO.
Each Warrant is governed by the Warrant Agreement and entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of our Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, at any time. Pursuant to the Offer, we are offering up to an aggregate of 3,619,996 shares of our Class A Common Stock in exchange for all of the Warrants.
