Item 8.01. Other Events.

On September 16, 2015, Double Eagle Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 50,000,000 of its units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 2,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (“Class A Share”), and one warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one Class A Share at a price of $5.75 per one-half share ($11.50 per whole share). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds, before expenses, of $500,000,000.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Offering, the Company consummated the private sale of an aggregate of 19,500,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), each exercisable to purchase one-half of one Class A Share at $5.75 per one-half share ($11.50 per whole share), to the Company’s sponsor, Double Eagle Acquisition LLC (the “Sponsor”), Harry E. Sloan and the Company’s independent directors (and/or one or more of their estate planning vehicles) at a price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds, before expenses, of $9,750,000 (the “Private Placement”). The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants included in the Units sold in the Offering, except that, so long as they are held by their initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, (i) they will not be redeemable by the Company, (ii) they (including the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold until 30 days after the Company completes its initial business combination and (iii) they may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis.

Approximately $500,000,000 of the proceeds from the Offering and the Private Placement were placed in a trust account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. Except for the withdrawal of interest to pay income taxes, if any, the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that none of the funds held in trust will be released from the trust account until the earlier of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination or (ii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete a business combination within 24 months from the closing of the Offering, subject to applicable law.

The Company is including as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K executed copies of its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, Warrant Agreement, Letter Agreements, Investment Management Trust Agreement, Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and the press release issued by the Company announcing the pricing of the Offering.
