Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. V, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 7, 2021 (the “January 7 Current Report”), in which Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. V reported, among other events, the execution of the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Merger Agreement

 

Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. V is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“SCH”). On January 7, 2021, SCH entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among SCH, Plutus Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of SCH (“Merger Sub”), and Social Finance, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SoFi”).

 

The Merger

 

The Merger Agreement provides that, among other things and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, the following transactions will occur (together with the other agreements and transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”):

 

(i)       at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”), Merger Sub will merge with and into SoFi, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SoFi will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SCH (the “Merger”);

 

(ii)       as a result of the Merger, among other things, and subject to the adjustments provided in the Merger Agreement, all of the common stock and preferred stock of SoFi, excluding the Series 1 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0000025 per share, of SoFi (the “Company Redeemable Preferred Stock”), which will convert into Series 1 Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0000025 per share, of SCH (after the Domestication) (the “Acquiror Series 1 Preferred Stock”), will be converted into the right to receive an aggregate number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of SCH (after the Domestication) (“SCH Common Stock”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $6,569,840,376 by (y) $10.00;

 

(iii)        upon the effective time of the Domestication (as defined below), SCH will immediately be renamed “SoFi Technologies, Inc.”

 

The Board of Directors of SCH (the “Board”) has unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement and related matters by the shareholders of SCH.

 

The Domestication

 

Prior to the Closing, subject to the approval of SCH’s shareholders, and in accordance with the DGCL, the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2020 Revision) (the “CICL”) and SCH’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as may be amended from time to time, the “Cayman Constitutional Documents”), SCH will effect a deregistration under the CICL and a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL (by means of filing a certificate of domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware), pursuant to which SCH’s jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”).

 

In connection with the Domestication, (i) each of the then issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of SCH (the “SCH Class A Ordinary Shares”), will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of SCH (after its Domestication) (the “SCH Class A Common Stock”, and together with the SCH Class B Common Stock, the “SCH Common Stock”), which are entitled to one vote per share, (ii) each of the then issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of SCH (“SCH Class B ordinary shares”), will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a share of SCH Class A Common Stock; provided, however, that with respect to the SCH Class B ordinary shares held by SCH Sponsor V LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company and shareholder of SCH (the “Sponsor”), in connection with the Domestication, the Sponsor will instead receive upon the conversion of the SCH Class B ordinary shares held by it, a number of shares of SCH Common Stock equal to (x) the number of SCH Class B ordinary shares held by it as of immediately prior to the Domestication minus (y) after giving effect to the Domestication, the number of shares of SCH Common Stock underlying the director restricted stock unit award agreement entered into between SCH and Jennifer Dulski, dated November 13, 2020 (the “Director RSU Award”), that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Domestication, (iii) each then issued and outstanding warrant of SCH will convert automatically into a warrant to acquire one share of SCH Class A Common Stock (“Domesticated SCH Warrant”), pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, dated October 8, 2020, between SCH and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and (iv) each then issued and outstanding unit of SCH (the “Cayman SCH Units”) will convert automatically into a unit of SCH (after the Domestication) (the “Domesticated SCH Units”), with each Domesticated SCH Unit representing one share of SCH Class A Common Stock and one-third of one Domesticated SCH Warrant.

Certain Related Agreements

 

Subscription Agreements

 

On January 7, 2021, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, SCH entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of which, the PIPE Investors have collectively subscribed for 122,500,000 shares of the SCH Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price equal to $1,225,000,000 (the “PIPE Investment”), a portion of which is expected to be funded by certain investors that are existing directors, officers or equityholders of SCH, SCH Sponsor V LLC (the “Sponsor”) and/or their respective affiliates (collectively, the “Sponsor Related PIPE Investors”). The PIPE Investment will be consummated prior to or substantially concurrently with the Closing.

 

The Subscription Agreements for the PIPE Investors (other than the Sponsor Related PIPE Investors, whose registration rights are governed by the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement described below (the “Non-Insider PIPE Investors”)), provide for certain registration rights. In particular, SCH is required to, as soon as practicable but no later than 30 calendar days following the Closing, submit to or file with the SEC a registration statement registering the resale of such shares. Additionally, SCH is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 90th calendar day following the filing date thereof if the SEC notifies SCH that it will “review” the registration statement and (ii) the 10th business day after the date SCH is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. SCH must use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement effective until the earliest of: (a) the date the Non-Insider PIPE Investors no longer hold any registrable shares, (b) the date all registrable shares held by the Non-Insider PIPE Investors may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 and (c) two years from the date of effectiveness of the registration statement.

 

The Subscription Agreements will terminate with no further force and effect upon the earliest to occur of: (i) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; (ii) the mutual written agreement of the parties to such Subscription Agreement; (iii) if any of the conditions to closing set forth in such Subscription Agreement are not satisfied on or prior to the Closing and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement fail to occur; and (iv) December 31, 2021 if the Closing has not occurred on or before such date .

 

Sponsor Support Agreement

 

On January 7, 2021, SCH also entered into a Sponsor Support Agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”), by and among SCH, the Sponsor, certain directors and officers of SCH and SoFi, pursuant to which the Sponsor and each director and officer of SCH agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and not to redeem their shares in SCH in connection therewith, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by the Sponsor Support Agreement.

 

SoFi Holders Support Agreement

Registration Rights Agreements

 

The Merger Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, the combined company, the Sponsor, certain equityholders of SoFi and certain of their respective affiliates, as applicable, and the other parties thereto, will enter into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “A&R Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which SCH will agree to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), certain shares of SCH Common Stock and other equity securities of SCH that are held by the parties thereto from time to time. In addition, the Merger Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, the combined company, certain holders of the Acquiror Series 1 Preferred Stock and certain of their respective affiliates, as applicable, will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Series 1 Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which SCH will agree to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), certain shares of Acquiror Series 1 Preferred Stock and other equity securities of SCH that are held by the parties thereto from time to time.

 

Lock-Up Agreement and Bylaw Transfer Restrictions

The Series 1 Agreement will become effective as of and subject to the Closing, except that it became effective as of January 7, 2021 with respect to the cash payment described in the next sentence. The Series 1 Agreement contains financial and other covenants, provides for certain information rights and provides for a cash payment to the Series 1 Holders, immediately upon the Closing, in full satisfaction of the special payment rights set forth in the Original Series 1 Agreement.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed transaction between SoFi and SCH. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of SCH’s securities, (ii) the risk that the transaction may not be completed by SCH’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by SCH, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the shareholders of SCH, the satisfaction of the minimum trust account amount following redemptions by SCH’s public shareholders and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals, (iv) the lack of a third party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the proposed transaction, (v) the inability to complete the PIPE Investment, (vi) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, (vii) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on SoFi’s business relationships, operating results, and business generally, (viii) risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations of SoFi and potential difficulties in SoFi employee retention as a result of the transaction, (ix) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against SoFi or against SCH related to the Merger Agreement or the proposed transaction, (x) the ability to maintain the listing of SCH’s securities on a national securities exchange, (xi) the price of SCH’s securities may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and highly regulated industries in which SCH plans to operate or SoFi operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting SCH’s or SoFi’s business and changes in the combined capital structure, (xii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities, and (xiii) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive industry. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of SCH’s registration on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-248915 and 333-249396), the Registration Statement on Form S-4 discussed above and other documents filed by SCH from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and SoFi and SCH assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither SoFi nor SCH gives any assurance that either SoFi or SCH, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations.
