Item 8.01. Other Events

 

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 22, 2022 (the “Current Report”), Yotta Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 10,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Common Stock”), one redeemable warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of Common Stock upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any.

 

As of April 22, 2022, a total of $100,000,000 of the net proceeds from the sale of Units in the IPO and the private placement were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders. An audited balance sheet as of April 22, 2022, reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the private placement, is included with this report as Exhibit 99.1.

 

On April 25, 2022, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option. On April 27, 2022, the underwriters purchased 1,500,000 Units (the “Option Units”) generating gross proceeds of $15,000,000. Simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Option Units, the Company completed a private placement sale of 30,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per unit (the “Private Placement Units”), generating total proceeds of $300,000. As a result, as of April 27, 2022, and aggregate of $115,000,000 was held in the trust account.

 

The Private Placement Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.

 

On April 27, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the over-allotment option, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
