Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 30, 2020, PropTech Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“PTAC”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with PTAC Merger Sub Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of PTAC (“Merger Sub”), Porch.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Joe Hanauer, in his capacity as the representative of all Pre-Closing Holders (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Holder Representative”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between PTAC and the Company will be effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PTAC (the “Merger”). Once effective, all equity securities of the Company will be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of merger consideration pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, as more fully set forth under “Consideration” below.

 

Consideration

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the aggregate consideration to be paid in the Merger is $471,500,000, as adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, and apportioned between cash and Class A Common Stock of PTAC, par value $0.001 per share (“PTAC Common Shares”), as more specifically set forth therein. In addition, PTAC will issue to the Pre-Closing Holders an aggregate 5,000,000 restricted PTAC Common Shares as more particularly described under “Earn Out” below.

 

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), (a) each share of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than dissenting shares, Company Restricted Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and shares of Company Common Stock, if any, held in the treasury of the Company) will be canceled and converted into and become the right to receive the applicable portion of the total merger consideration in accordance with an allocation schedule to be provided by the Company (the “Allocation Schedule”) that will set forth the allocation of the merger consideration and Earn-Out Shares (as defined below) among the pre-closing holders of the Company, and (b) each warrant to purchase Company Common Stock or preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Company Preferred Stock”) (other than Underwater Warrants (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) that is unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be canceled and converted into and become the right to receive the applicable portion of the total merger consideration in accordance with the Allocation Schedule.

 

In addition, as of the Effective Time, (i) each option to purchase Company Common Stock (“Company Option”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Pre-Closing Holder who is providing services to the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be assumed and converted into an option with respect to a number of PTAC Common Shares in the manner set forth in the Merger Agreement, and each such active employee of the Company (“Employee Earn Out Recipient”) who is a Pre-Closing Holder who holds a Company Option will receive such holder’s allocation of the Earn Out Shares (subject to a continuous employment requirement), (ii) each Company Option that is outstanding at such time and held by a pre-closing holder who is not then providing services to the Company will be converted into a number of Company Common Shares in the manner set forth in the Merger Agreement, (iii) each award of restricted stock units with respect to shares of Company Common Stock (“Company RSUs”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be assumed and converted into the right to receive an award of restricted stock units denominated in a number of PTAC Common Shares in the manner set forth in the Merger Agreement, and each Employee Earn Out Recipient who holds Company RSUs will receive such holder’s allocation of the Earn Out Shares (subject to a continuous employment requirement), (iv) each award of Company Restricted Shares that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be assumed and converted into the right to receive an award of restricted shares denominated in a number of PTAC Common Shares in the manner set forth in the Merger Agreement and (v) each Employee Earn Out Recipient who holds Company Restricted Shares will receive such holder’s allocation of the Earn Out Shares (subject to a continuous employment requirement).

At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Transactions,” and the closing, the “Closing”), PTAC will also issue or cause to be issued to the Pre-Closing Holders of the Company an aggregate 5,000,000 restricted PTAC Common Shares (subject to vesting, forfeiture and certain other restrictions (including on transfer) set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Earn Out Shares”). With respect to the Earn Out Shares: (i) one-third (1/3) of the Earn Out Shares will vest if the closing price of the PTAC Common Shares is greater than or equal to $18.00 over any twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined in the Merger Agreement) within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period, (ii) one-third (1/3) of the Earn Out Shares will vest if the closing price of the PTAC Common Shares is greater than or equal to $20.00 over any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period, and (iii) one-third (1/3) of the Earn Out Shares will vest if the closing price of the PTAC Common Shares is greater than or equal to $22.00 over any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period, in each case, prior to the expiry of three (3) years from the Closing (the “Earn Out Period”). In addition, if there is a sale of PTAC prior to the expiration of the Earn Out Period that will result in the holders of PTAC Common Shares receiving a price per share equal to or in excess of the applicable price per share thresholds described above, then Earn Out Shares will vest in connection with such sale of the Company in the manner set forth in the Merger Agreement.
