Item 8.01. Other Events.
On August 5, 2021, Healthwell Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 25,000,000 units (the “Units”). The company has granted Jefferies LLC a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,750,000 units at the initial public offering price to cover any over-allotment. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $250,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 7,700,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to Healthwell Acquisition Corp. I Sponsor LLC at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant (the “Private Placement”), generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,700,000.
A total of $250,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
An audited balance sheet as of August 5, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
