NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TLGY Acquisition Corporation (the “Company” or “TLGY”) today announced that the underwriters of its previously announced public offering of units have fully exercised their option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 units at the public offering price of $10.00 per unit, resulting in additional gross proceeds of $30 million. After giving effect to the full exercise of the over-allotment option, the total number of units sold by the Company in the public offering increased to 23,000,000 units and for aggregate gross proceeds of $230 million.
The units are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market and trade under the ticker symbol “TLGYU”. Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant and a contingent right to receive at least one-fourth of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Company expects that the Class A ordinary shares and warrants will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbols "TLGY" and "TLGYW", respectively.
