On December 19, 2012, Chart Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 7,500,000 Units (“Units”), each Unit consisting of one share of common stock, $.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), and one warrant (“Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock, pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-177280). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $75,000,000. The underwriters of the IPO were granted an option to purchase up to an additional 1,125,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any.
As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company, on December 19, 2012, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 375,000 placement units (the “Placement Units”) to Chart Acquisition Group, LLC, Joseph Wright and Cowen Overseas Investments LP, generating gross proceeds of $3,750,000. Each Placement Unit is comprised of one share of Common Stock and one Warrant.
A total of $75,000,000 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 stockholders. An audited balance sheet as of December 19, 2012 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.
