Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On December 5, 2017, Leisure Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and one-half of one warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $200,000,000.

 

On December 5, 2017, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 6,825,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, to MLCP GLL Funding LLC, an affiliate of Matthews Lane Capital Partners LLC, Hydra LAC, LLC, an affiliate of Hydra Management, LLC, HG Vora Special Opportunities Master Fund, Ltd. and certain members of the Company’s management team, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $6,825,000.

 

A total of $200,000,000, comprised of $196,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO, including approximately $7,000,000 of the underwriter’s deferred discount, and $4,000,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, were placed in a trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
