On November 1, 2013, Quartet consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 8,400,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one right to automatically receive one-tenth of one share of common stock upon consummation of an Initial Business Combination. The units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $84,000,000.

Simultaneously with each of the consummation of the IPO and the exercise of the over-allotment option, Quartet consummated a private placement of an aggregate of 608,125 units to its Sponsors and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., the representative of the underwriters of its IPO, and their respective designees. The private units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $6,081,250.
