Press Release 
 
Lakestar SPAC I completes oversubscribed Private Placement 
Luxembourg, 18 February 2021 - Lakestar SPAC I SE ("Lakestar SPAC I"), a Luxembourg-incorporated newly formed special 
purpose acquisition company ("SPAC"), is pleased to confirm that it has completed its private placement announced on 17 
February 2021. 
The private placement was several times oversubscribed and raised gross proceeds of EUR 275 million through the 
issuance of 27,500,000 units at a price of EUR 10.00 per unit, each consisting of one share (a "Public Share") and 1/3 
warrant (a "Public Warrant"). The units were solely offered to institutional investors. 
Dr. Klaus Hommels, Sponsor and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Lakestar SPAC I: "We are delighted to see that our 
offer was highly oversubscribed. Apart from the trust investors are showing in our network and our expertise, I 
personally interpret this as confidence in the opportunities the European tech sector offers, which I think are 
plentiful. If Europe wants to fund a thriving tech scene and foster digital sovereignty, it needs a thriving financial 
scene as well. We want to play our part in making this happen, and the EUR 275 million proceeds will be deployed 
accordingly on the most promising European tech company and its management." 
Stefan Winners, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Lakestar SPAC I: "We take the overwhelming level of investor interest 
as a strong indication of trust. With this tailwind, we look forward to the listing of the SPAC. What we are really 
excited about is to find an outstanding European tech company, and to enable it to continue its success story as a 
public company. Our search starts now." 
Lakestar SPAC I was established for the purpose of acquiring a European late-stage growth company in the technology 
sector with an equity value between EUR 750 million and EUR 4 billion and intends to use the proceeds from the private 
placement in connection with this business combination. All of the proceeds from the private placement and an 
additional sponsor subscription of founder shares and founder warrants (the "Additional Sponsor Subscription") will be 
transferred into an escrow account. Should the escrow account be subject to negative interest rates, those will be 
covered by the proceeds from the Additional Sponsor Subscription, allowing for a redemption of the Public Shares at a 
price of EUR 10.00 per share. 
The Public Shares will be admitted for trading on the regulated market (regulierter Markt) of the Frankfurt Stock 
Exchange (General Standard) (ticker LRS1). The Public Warrants will be introduced to trading on the open market ( 
Freiverkehr) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Börse Frankfurt Zertifikate AG) (ticker LRSW). Trading of the shares and 
warrants is expected to commence on 22 February 2021. Closing with the private placement investors through delivery of 
the shares and warrants is scheduled for 23 February 2021.

securities (the "Securities") of Lakestar SPAC I SE (the "Company") in the United States, Australia, Canada, Japan or 
any other jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful. The Securities of the Company may not be

benefit of, any national, resident or citizen of Australia, Canada or Japan subject to certain exceptions. 
This publication constitutes neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation to buy any securities. The securities have 
already been sold. 
In the United Kingdom, this publication is only being distributed to and is only directed at persons who are (i) 
investment professionals falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial 
Promotion) Order 2005, as amended (the "Order"), or (ii) persons falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order

The Units are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or 
otherwise made available to any Retail Investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a "Retail Investor" means a person who 
is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU of the 
European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); 
(ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 
January 2016 on insurance distribution, as amended, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as 
defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation 
(EU) No 1286/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 November 2014 on key information documents for 
packaged retail and insurance-based investment products (the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Units or

Solely for the purpose of the product governance requirements contained within (i) MiFID II, (ii) Articles 9 and 10 of 
Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 of 7 April 2016 supplementing MiFID II and (iii) local implementing 
measures (together, the "MiFID II Requirements"), and disclaiming any and all liability, whether arising in tort, 
contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Requirements) may otherwise have with 
respect thereto, the Public Shares and Public Warrants have been subject to a product approval process. As a result, it 
has been determined that (i) the Public Shares are (a) compatible with an end target market of Retail Investors and 
investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II, and 
(b) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels permitted by MiFID II and (ii) the Public Warrants are 
(a) compatible with an end target market of investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible 
counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II, and (b) eligible for distribution to professional clients and eligible 
counterparties through all distribution channels permitted by MiFID II.
