Lilium N.V. (NASDAQ: LILM) (“Lilium” or the “Company”), developer of the first all-electric vertical take-off and landing (“eVTOL”) jet and global pioneer in Regional Air Mobility (RAM), announced today that it has launched an underwritten public offering of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares (the “Shares”) and warrants to purchase Shares (the “Warrants” and, together with the Shares, the “Securities”), as well as a concurrent private placement offering of Shares and warrants to purchase Shares (“PIPE Warrants”) including to BIT Capital, Earlybird Venture Capital and Aceville Pte. Limited, an affiliate of Tencent Holdings Limited (“Aceville”), as well as certain Lilium board members (the “PIPE”). Additionally, the Company will issue to Aceville (i) a pro rata warrant to purchase Shares (the “Aceville Pre-Funded Warrant”) and Aceville has agreed to partially prepay a portion of the total exercise price of the Aceville Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Aceville Pre-Funding”) and (ii) an accompanying PIPE Warrant to purchase Shares, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions and the receipt of shareholder approval for an increase in the Company’s authorized share capital.

In connection with the underwritten public offering, the Company expects to grant to the underwriter an option to purchase up to 15% additional Shares and accompanying Warrants sold in the underwritten public offering during the 30 days after the offering prices, solely to cover over-allotments. B. Riley Securities is serving as the sole bookrunner and underwriter for the underwritten public offering. The underwritten public offering is subject to market, regulatory and other conditions and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.

The Securities being offered pursuant to the underwritten public offering are being offered pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-267719) previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which the SEC declared effective on October 12, 2022. A preliminary prospectus supplement related to the underwritten public offering will be filed with the SEC, will form a part of the effective registration statement, and will be available on the SEC’s website located at http://www.sec.gov or may be obtained from B. Riley Securities, Attention: Prospectus Department, 1300 North 17th Street, Suite 1300, Arlington, Virginia 22209; Telephone: (703) 312-9580, or by emailing prospectuses@brileyfin.com.

In connection with the concurrent PIPE, a number of investors, including BIT Capital, Earlybird Venture Capital and Aceville, as well as certain Lilium board members, agreed to purchase Shares for $1.05 per Share and accompanying warrant. Each PIPE Warrant will be exercisable for one Share at an exercise price of $1.50 per Share following the receipt of shareholder approval for an increase in the Company’s authorized share capital. The PIPE Warrants will expire six years from the date of issuance. The securities purchase agreements contain customary registration rights.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the underwritten public offering, the PIPE and the Aceville Pre-Funding to continue to fund the development and operations of the Company and for general corporate purposes.

Neither the underwritten public offering nor the PIPE is conditional on the other. The securities sold in the PIPE are being issued pursuant to the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation S, have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state or other applicable jurisdiction’s securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state or other jurisdiction's securities laws.
