Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On April 25, 2022, the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-263874)
(the "Registration Statement") relating to the initial public offering (the
"IPO") Aimfinity Investment Corp. I (the "Company") was declared effective by
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. On April 28, 2022, the Company
consummated the IPO of 8,050,000 units (the "Units"). Each Unit consists of one
Class A ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (the "Class A Ordinary
Shares"), one Class 1 redeemable warrant (the "Class 1 Warrant") and one-half of
one Class 2 redeemable warrant (the "Class 2 Warrant", together with the Class 1
Warrant, the "Public Warrants"), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder
thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50
per share. This includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their
over-allotment option pursuant to which the underwriters purchased an additional
1,050,000 Units. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit,
generating gross proceeds of $80,500,000.

the private sale of 492,000 Units (the "Private Placement Units") to the
Company's sponsor, Aimfinity Investment LLC (the "Sponsor"), at a purchase price
of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company
of $4,920,000 (such sale, the "Private Placement"). The Private Placement Units
are identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except that the Sponsor has agreed
not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Units (except to
certain permitted transferees) until 30 days after the completion of the
Company's initial business combination.
