GLACU Global Lights Acquisition Corporation

Greenland Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ: GLACU, the “Company”) announced today that it closed its initial public offering of 4,400,000 units, which included 400,000 units issued pursuant to the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option.

Of the proceeds received from the consummation of the initial public offering and a simultaneous private placement of units, $44,000,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the public offering) was placed in trust. An audited balance sheet of the Company as of July 27, 2018 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the initial public offering and the private placement will be included as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
