When including the Issuer’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Stock” and, together with the Class A Stock, the “Common Stock”), the Reporting Persons beneficially own 27.7% of the Common Stock.

Retirement of Coliseum Loan

On September 3, 2020, Purple Innovation, LLC ( “Purple LLC”) and the Issuer entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) leading a group of financial institutions (collectively the “Lenders”) and consummated the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Closing”). All defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement by and among Purple LLC, the Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. KeyBank will act as the sole administrative and collateral agent under the Credit Agreement (the “Administrative Agent”). The Issuer is a guarantor under the Credit Agreement.


CUSIP No. 74640Y 106   13D/A   Page  10 of 12

 

The Credit Agreement provides for a $45 million term loan and a $55 million revolving line of credit. Proceeds from the term loan, which were fully drawn at closing, were used to retire all indebtedness related to Purple LLC’s existing Credit Agreement dated as of February 2, 2018 by and among Borrower, CCP, the Separate Account and COC (and together with CCP and the Separate Account, “Coliseum Lenders”), as amended and restated in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated February 26, 2019, and as further amended by the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 27, 2020, the Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 15, 2020, and the Waiver and Consent to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of August 20, 2020 (collectively the “Coliseum Loan”). The retirement of the Coliseum Loan included a prepayment fee of approximately $2.5 million.

The foregoing summary of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 23 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Lock-Up Agreements

On September 9, 2020, the Issuer launched an underwritten secondary public offering of 11,826,087 shares of its Class A Stock (the “Secondary Offering”) to be sold by InnoHold, LLC, as described in the Issuer’s prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) on September 11, 2020. The Reporting Persons and the Separate Account did not purchase any of the Class A Stock in the Secondary Offering. There were no transactions in the securities of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons and the Separate Account that were effected in the sixty days preceding the filing of this Amendment, or since the last 13D filing, whichever is less.

In connection with the Secondary Offering, each of CCM and Gray (each a “Coliseum Party”, and collectively, the “Coliseum Parties”) entered into a Lock-Up Agreement, dated September 8, 2020 (collectively, the “Lock-Up Agreements”), with BofA Securities, Inc. (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Coliseum Parties agreed, subject to specified exceptions, that, until November 8, 2020, they will not, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter:

 

  1.

directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of Class A Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Stock, whether owned on September 8, 2020 or thereafter acquired by the Coliseum Parties or with respect to which the Coliseum Parties have or acquire the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”), or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any of the Lock-up Securities, or file or cause to be filed any registration statement in connection therewith, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or

 

  2.

enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of Class A Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise.

The foregoing description of the Lock-Up Agreements are qualified in their entirety to the Lock-Up Agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 24 and 25 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
