The securities to be registered hereby are units, Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, and rights to receive Class A ordinary shares of Hennessy Capital Investment Corp. VII (the “ Registrant”). The description of the units, Class A ordinary shares and rights contained in the section entitled “Description of Securities” in the Registrant’s prospectus forming part of its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 283087), initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2024, as thereafter amended and supplemented from time to time (as so amended and supplemented, the “ Registration Statement”), to which this Form 8-A relates, is incorporated by reference herein. Any form of prospectus or prospectus supplement to the Registration Statement that includes such descriptions and that is subsequently filed is also incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2. Exhibits.

Pursuant to the instructions as to exhibits for Form 8-A, no exhibits are required to be filed, because no other securities of the Registrant are registered on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, and the securities registered hereby are not being registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
