Rose Hill is a blank check company incorporated on March 29, 2021, as a Cayman Islands exempted company and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities, which we refer to as our initial business combination. On October 18, 2021, Rose Hill consummated its IPO of its units, with each unit consisting of one Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one redeemable warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, which included the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 units.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Rose Hill completed the private sale of (i) an aggregate of 4,950,000 warrants to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $1.25 per warrant (the “Sponsor Private Placement Warrants”), generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,187,500, (ii) an aggregate of 345,000 warrants to J.V.B. Financial Group, LLC at a purchase price of $1.25 per warrant (the “CCM Private Placement Warrants”), generating gross proceeds to the Company of $431,250 and (iii) an aggregate of 805,000 warrants to Cantor Fitzgerald & Co at a purchase price of $1.25 per warrant (the “UW Private Placement Warrants” and together with the Sponsor Private Placement Warrants and the CCM Private Placement Warrants, the “Private Placement Warrants”), generating gross proceeds to the Company of $1,006,250. The net proceeds from the IPO together with certain of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, $146,625,000 in the aggregate, were placed in a trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Trust Account”) maintained by Continental, acting as trustee.
Our IPO prospectus and amended and restated articles of association provided that we had until January 18, 2023 (the date which was 15 months after the consummation of the IPO) to complete an initial business combination. As stated in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 13, 2023, an extraordinary general meeting was held on January 12, 2023 (“Prior Extension Meeting”) where our shareholders approved a proposal to amend our Articles to extend the date by which we must consummate an initial business combination from January 18, 2023, to July 18, 2023. In connection with the Prior Extension Meeting, holders of the Class A ordinary shares were permitted to exercise their right to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account. Shareholders holding 14,118,106 Class A ordinary shares elected to have their shares redeemed leaving an aggregate of approximately $2.8 million in the Trust Account following the Prior Extension Meeting.
Our Articles currently provides for the return of the IPO proceeds held in the Trust Account to the holders of public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by July 18, 2023. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we do not complete our initial business combination by July 18, 2023, or if the Extension Proposal is approved, the Extended Date.
