Vantage Energy Acquisition ^{Priced, Nasdaq: VEACU}

We are a newly organized blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this prospectus as our initial business combination. We are a portfolio company of NGP XI, an energy-focused private equity fund with a mandate to make investments in energy and natural resources, with an emphasis on investments in businesses and/or assets in: the upstream and midstream energy sectors, principally in North America (including, without limitation, the exploration and/or production of hydrocarbons, and the processing, transportation, storage and/or logistics relating to hydrocarbons); and the oilfield and related energy services sectors. We have not selected any potential business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any potential business combination target. Although we may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business or industry, or one that does not fit with NGP XI’s mandate, we intend to capitalize on the ability of our management team and the broader NGP platform to identify, acquire and operate a business in the energy industry that may provide opportunities for attractive risk-adjusted returns and specifically to focus on opportunities in the upstream oil and gas industry in North America where our Chief Executive Officer’s networks and experience are suited.
