NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

In December 2018, the Sponsor purchased 7,187,500 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”), for an aggregate price of $25,000. In March 2019, the Sponsor transferred to the Company’s independent directors an aggregate of 90,000 Founder Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $313. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 937,500 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. The forfeiture was to be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters so that the Founder Shares would represent 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. On April 5, 2019, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option which closed simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering; thus, the 937,500 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

The initial shareholders agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, amalgamation, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

 

Private Placement Warrants

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering on April 8, 2019, the Company sold 7,750,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $7.75 million. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants have been accounted for as liabilities, with an initial fair value of $6.98 million. The difference between the proceeds received and the fair value was recognized as a capital contribution in additional paid-in capital on the Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity. A portion of the net proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.

Contemporaneously with the execution of the Transaction Agreement, the initial shareholders entered into an amendment and restatement of the existing Sponsor Agreement (as amended and restated, the “Sponsor Agreement”) with New Pubco, the Company and FoA, pursuant to which, among other things, (i) immediately prior to the Domestication (as defined below), all of the Private Placement Warrants owned by the Sponsor will be exchanged for ordinary shares and (ii) excluding the Founder Shares held by the Company’s independent directors (unless transferred to any other initial shareholder or permitted transferee thereof), 40% of the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor will be vested and wholly owned by the Sponsor as of the closing of the Proposed Business Combination and 60% of the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor will be subject to vesting and forfeiture in accordance with certain terms and conditions.

Pursuant to the Sponsor Agreement, the initial shareholders have agreed to (i) vote or cause to be voted at the general meeting all of their Founder Shares and all other equity securities that they hold in the Company in favor of each proposal in connection with the Proposed Business Combination and the Transaction Agreement and any other matters reasonably necessary for consummation of the Proposed Business Combination, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to cause to be done all reasonably necessary, proper or advisable actions to consummate the Proposed Business Combination, (iii) waive all redemption rights and certain other rights in connection with the Proposed Business Combination and (iv) be bound by the same exclusivity obligations that bind the purchaser-side parties in the Transaction Agreement.

PIPE Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Transaction Agreement, the Company entered into the Replay PIPE Agreements (as defined below) with various investors, including an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which such investors agreed to purchase ordinary shares (which ordinary shares will be converted into Replay LLC Units pursuant to the Domestication and then will be converted into the right to receive shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Replay Merger (as defined below)). In the aggregate, the PIPE Investors (as defined below) have committed to purchase $250.0 million of PIPE Shares (as defined below), at a purchase price of $10.00 per PIPE Share, including $10.0 million of PIPE Shares to be purchased by an affiliate of the Sponsor.

Related Party Loans

On December 1, 2018, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $250,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of June 30, 2019 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company borrowed $250,000 under the Note, and fully repaid on May 6, 2019.

In addition to the Note, the Company borrowed approximately $2,000 from a related party for general and administrative expenses. The Company repaid this amount on May 7, 2019.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

 

Reimbursement

The Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. The Company’s Audit Committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, officers, directors or the Company’s or any of their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf.
