Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 16, 2020, the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-251040) (the “Registration Statement”) relating to the initial public offering (the “IPO”) of Corner Growth Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Company subsequently filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-251403) pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which was effective immediately upon filing. On December 21, 2020, the Company consummated the IPO of 40,000,000 units (the “Units”), which includes the partial exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase up to an additional 5,250,000 Units at the IPO price to cover over-allotments. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $400,000,000. Further, in connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement:

 

an Underwriting Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, among the Company and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., which contains customary representations and warranties and indemnification of the underwriter by the Company;
   
a Warrant Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agreement”), which sets forth the expiration and exercise price of and procedure for exercising the Warrants (as defined below); certain adjustment features of the terms of exercise; provisions relating to redemption and cashless exercise of the Warrants; certain registration rights of the holders of Warrants; provision for amendments to the Warrant Agreement; and indemnification of the warrant agent by the Company under the agreement;
   
a Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, dated December 16, 2020 between the Company and CGA Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Sponsor purchased 7,600,000 private placement warrants (including 666,667 private placement warrants purchased in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option), each exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, at a price of $1.50 per warrant (the “Private Placement Warrants” and, together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”);

 

an Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee, which establishes the trust account that will hold the net proceeds of the IPO and certain of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, and sets forth the responsibilities of the trustee; the procedures for withdrawal and direction of funds from the trust account; and indemnification of the trustee by the Company under the agreement;

 

a Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, among the Company, the Sponsor and certain shareholders of the Company, which provides for customary demand and piggy-back registration rights for the Sponsor, and customary piggy-back registration rights for such other shareholders, as well as certain transfer restrictions applicable to the Sponsor with respect to the Company’s securities, and, upon and following consummation of our initial business combination, the right of the Sponsor to nominate three individuals for election to the Company’s board of directors;

 

a Letter Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, among the Company, the Sponsor and each executive officer and director of the Company, pursuant to which the Sponsor and each executive officer and director of the Company has agreed to vote any Class A Ordinary Shares held by him, her or it in favor of the Company’s initial business combination; to facilitate the liquidation and winding up of the Company if an initial business combination is not consummated within 24 months; to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Company’s securities; to certain indemnification obligations of the Sponsor; and the Company has agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination without the prior consent of the Sponsor; and

 

an Administrative Services Agreement, dated December 16, 2020, between the Company and the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to make available office space, secretarial and administrative services, as may be required by the Company from time to time, for $40,000 per month until the earlier of the Company’s initial business combination or liquidation.

 

The above descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the applicable agreement, each of which is incorporated by reference herein and filed herewith as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

Simultaneous with the consummation of the IPO and the issuance and sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement of 7,600,000 Private Placement Warrants (including 666,667 Private Placement Warrants purchased in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option) at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $11,400,000. The Private Placement Warrants, which were purchased by the Sponsor, are substantially similar to the Public Warrants, except that if held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, they (i) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, (ii) are not subject to being called for redemption (except in certain circumstances when the Public Warrants are called for redemption and a certain price per Class A Ordinary Share threshold is met) and (iii) 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 Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. The Private Placement Warrants have been issued pursuant to, and are governed by the Warrant Agreement.

On December 16, 2020 and in connection with the IPO, the Company adopted its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
