Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Business Combination Agreement Amendment

On March 18, 2020, Nebula Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Nebula”), entered into Amendment No. 1 and Waiver (the “Amendment”) to the Business Combination Agreement, dated January 5, 2020 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Nebula, BRP Hold 11, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Blocker”), the Blocker’s sole stockholder (the “Blocker Holder”), Nebula Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ParentCo”), NBLA Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Merger Sub LLC”), NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub Corp”), Open Lending, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Company”), and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, as the Securityholder Representative, pursuant to which Nebula will acquire the Company for consideration of a combination of cash and shares (the “Business Combination”). Capitalized terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Amendment.

The Amendment amends the Business Combination Agreement to (i) waive the provisions in the Business Combination Agreement that require Nebula to commence a tender offer for the public NAC Warrants, (ii) provide that Nebula shall seek the approval of the holders of the public NAC Warrants, at a meeting of the holders of the public NAC Warrants, to amend the terms of the Warrant Agreement, dated January 9, 2018 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Nebula and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC to provide that, upon consummation of the Business Combination, each of Nebula’s outstanding public NAC Warrants, which entitle the holder to purchase one share of Nebula Class A common stock, will be exchanged for cash in the amount of $1.50 per each whole public NAC Warrant (the “Warrant Amendment”), (iii) provide that the obligations of the Company, Blocker and the Blocker Holder to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement shall be conditioned on the registered holders of the public NAC Warrants holding at least a majority of the public NAC Warrants approving the Warrant Amendment, and (iv) provide that all of the Contingency Consideration (consisting of 15,000,000 shares of ParentCo Common Stock) will be issued if, prior to or as of the second anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP of the ParentCo Common Shares is greater than or equal to $13.00 for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) trading day period.

The Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.2 and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K. For a detailed discussion of the Business Combination Agreement, see Nebula’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on January 6, 2020 (the “January 8-K”). For the full text of the Business Combination Agreement, see Exhibit 2.1 to the January 8-K, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2.1 hereto.

Founder Support Agreement Amendment

On March 18, 2020, the holders of the NAC Class B Common Stock (including Nebula Holdings, LLC, the “Sponsor”), the Company, ParentCo and Nebula entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Founder Support Agreement, dated January 5, 2020, by and among Nebula, ParentCo, the Company, the Sponsor and the holders of Nebula’s Class B common stock (the “Founder Support Agreement Amendment”), which amendment provides that (i) the earn-out consideration (consisting of 1,250,000 shares of ParentCo Common Stock) will be issued by ParentCo to the Sponsor if, prior to or as of the second anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP of the ParentCo Common Shares is greater than or equal to $13.00 for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) trading day period and (ii) 3,437,500 ParentCo Common Shares issued in exchange for the shares of Nebula’s Class B common stock will be released from lockup and no longer subject to forfeiture if, prior to or as of the seventh anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP of the ParentCo Common Shares is greater than or equal to $13.00 for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) trading day period.

The Founder Support Agreement Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

Additional Information

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, Nebula intends to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 that will include a proxy statement for the stockholders and warrantholders of Nebula that also constitutes a prospectus of ParentCo. Nebula urges investors, stockholders and other interested persons to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus as well as other documents filed with the SEC because these documents will contain important information about Nebula, the Company and the proposed Business Combination (including the proposed Warrant Amendment). After the registration statement is declared effective, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus to be included in the registration statement will be mailed to stockholders and warrantholders of Nebula as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed Business Combination and proposed Warrant Amendment. Stockholders and warrantholders will also be able to obtain a copy of the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge by directing a request to: Nebula Acquisition Corporation, Four Embarcadero Center, Suite 2100, San Francisco, CA 94111. The preliminary and definitive proxy statement/prospectus to be included in the registration statement, once available, can also be obtained, without charge, at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).

Participants in the Solicitation

Nebula, the Company and their respective directors and executive officers may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies with respect to the proposed Business Combination under the rules of the SEC. Information about the directors and executive officers of Nebula is set forth in Nebula’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on February 14, 2020. Information regarding the persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be deemed participants in the solicitation of the stockholders in connection with the potential Business Combination will be set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus when it is filed with the SEC. These documents can be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above.

Non-Solicitation

This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the potential Business Combination and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of Nebula, ParentCo or the Company, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a definitive prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act.

Forward-looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, Nebula’s ability to consummate the potential Business Combination with the Company. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of Nebula’s and the Company’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Nebula and the Company. These forward looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including general economic, political and business conditions, the continuing spread of COVID-19 (also known as novel coronavirus or coronavirus disease 2019), applicable taxes, inflation, interest rates and

the regulatory environment, the outcome of judicial proceedings to which the Company is, or may become a party, the inability of the parties to enter into definitive agreements or consummate the proposed Business Combination; the risk that the approval of the stockholders of Nebula for the potential Business Combination is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the potential Business Combination, including as a result of a delay in consummating the potential Business Combination or difficulty in integrating the businesses of Nebula and the Company; the amount of redemption requests made by Nebula’s stockholders; those factors discussed in Nebula’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of Nebula filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Nebula nor the Company presently do not know or that Nebula and the Company currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Nebula’s and the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Nebula and the Company anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause their assessments to change. However, while Nebula and the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Nebula and the Company specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Nebula’s or the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

EXECUTION VERSION

AMENDMENT NO. 1 AND WAIVER, dated as of March 18, 2020 (this “Amendment”), to the BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT, dated as of January 5, 2020 (the “Agreement”), by and among Nebula Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“NAC”), BRP Hold 11, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the person listed as the Blocker Holder on the signature pages to the Agreement, Nebula Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation, NBLA Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company, NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation, Open Lending, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company solely in its capacity as the Securityholder Representative. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms are used herein as defined in the Agreement.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the parties have entered into the Agreement; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.04 of the Agreement, the parties wish to amend the Agreement and waive certain provisions of the Agreement as set forth in this Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the rights and obligations contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Amendments the Agreement.

 

(A).

Section 2.03 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following (and corresponding changes to the defined terms and section references set forth in Section 10.03(b) of the Agreement shall be deemed to be made):

“SECTION 2.03 Contingency Consideration.

(a) Following the Closing, in addition to the consideration to be received pursuant to Section 1.01(c) and 2.02 and as part of the overall Aggregate Consideration, the Blocker Holder and the Company Unitholders shall be issued Fifteen Million (15,000,000) ParentCo Common Shares, in the aggregate (the “Contingency Consideration”), if, at any time prior to or as of the second anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP is greater than or equal to Thirteen Dollars ($13.00) over any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) trading day period (the “Share Target”).

(b) If the Share Target set forth in Section 2.03(a) shall have been achieved, within five (5) Business Days following the achievement of the Share Target, ParentCo shall issue the Contingency Consideration to the Blocker Holder and each Company Unitholder as specified on the Payment Spreadsheet.


(c) If a Change of Control of the ParentCo occurs prior to the second anniversary of the Closing and the Contingency Consideration that is issuable pursuant to Section 2.03(a) remains unissued as of immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, the Contingency Consideration shall immediately vest and the Company Unitholders and the Blocker Holder shall be entitled to receive the Contingency Consideration prior to the consummation of such Change of Control (payable to the Company Unitholders and the Blocker Holder as specified on the Payment Spreadsheet). For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall have been deemed to occur with respect to ParentCo upon:

(i) the sale, lease, license, distribution, dividend or transfer, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the assets of ParentCo, as applicable, and its subsidiaries taken as a whole;

(ii) a merger, consolidation or other business combination of ParentCo (or any subsidiary or subsidiaries that alone or together represent more than fifty percent (50%) of the consolidated business of ParentCo at that time) or any successor or other entity holding fifty percent (50%) or more all of the assets of ParentCo and its subsidiaries that results in the stockholders of ParentCo (or such subsidiary or subsidiaries) or any successor or other entity holding fifty percent (50%) or more of the assets of ParentCo and its subsidiaries or the surviving entity thereof, as applicable, immediately before the consummation of such transaction or series of related transactions holding, directly or indirectly, less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of ParentCo (or such subsidiary or subsidiaries) or any successor, other entity or surviving entity thereof, as applicable, immediately following the consummation of such transaction or series of related transactions; or

(iii) any person or “group” (within the meaning of Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act as in effect on the Closing Date) shall obtain beneficial ownership (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) of the voting stock of ParentCo representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the capital stock of ParentCo entitled to vote for the election of directors of ParentCo.

(d) The Contingency Consideration and the Share Target shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into ParentCo Common Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to ParentCo Common Shares, occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the time the Contingency Consideration is delivered to the Blocker Holder and Company Unitholders, if any.”

 

(B).

Section 8.01(h) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“(h) Warrantholder Approval. The registered holders of the public NAC Warrants holding at least a majority of the public NAC Warrants shall have approved an amendment to the NAC Warrant Instrument adding a provision pursuant to which there will be an automatic redemption of all public NAC Warrants for $1.50 per whole public NAC Warrant upon the consummation of the Transactions.”

 

2


Section 2. Waiver of Tender Offer. Section 7.07 of the Agreement provides that, in connection with the Transactions, NAC shall commence the Tender Offer with respect to the publicly held NAC Warrants, including filing with the SEC the Schedule TO, Schedule 14D-9 and other Offer Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties to the Agreement have decided that, rather than commencing the Tender Offer, NAC shall instead seek to amend the NAC Warrant Instrument pursuant to the proposed amendment to the NAC Warrant Instrument attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Amendment”). To that end, the parties have agreed that, rather than commencing the Tender Offer and filing the Offer Documents, NAC shall call a special meeting of the holders of public NAC Warrants (and include in the notice of such meeting in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus) pursuant to which NAC shall seek the consent of the holders of the public NAC Warrants to the Warrant Amendment. The parties hereby waive NAC’s obligation to perform NAC’s obligations under Sections 2.05 and Section 7.07 of the Agreement.

Section 3. Parties in Interest. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Amendment, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Amendment.

Section 4. Entire Agreement. This Amendment constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as amended by this Amendment, the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Section 5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 6. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO WARRANT AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDMENT TO THE WARRANT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made as of _____________________, 2020, by and between Nebula Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Warrant Agent”).

WHEREAS, the Company and the Warrant Agent are parties to that certain Warrant Agreement, dated as of January 9, 2018, and filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on January 16, 2018 (the “Warrant Agreement”), which governs the Warrants (capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Warrant Agreement);

WHEREAS, on January 5, 2020, a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) was entered into by and among the Company, BRP Hold 11, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the person listed as the Blocker Holder on the signature pages to the Business Combination Agreement, Nebula Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation, NBLA Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company, NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation, Open Lending, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company solely in its capacity as the Securityholder Representative;

WHEREAS, the Company and the Warrant Agent seek to amend the Warrant Agreement to provide that, upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Contribution Agreement, all of the issued and outstanding Public Warrants will be exchanged for cash in the amount of $1.50 per whole Public Warrant and the Warrant Agreement thereafter terminated with respect to such Public Warrants; and

WHEREAS, on ___________________, 2020, the Company held a special meeting of the holders of Public Warrants pursuant to which the Company obtained the required approval of the holders of the Public Warrants to this Warrant Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows.

Amendment to Warrant Agreement. The Company and the Warrant Agent hereby amend the Warrant Agreement to add a new “Section 6.5” immediately following “Section 6.4” which shall read as follows:

“6.5 Mandatory Redemption of Public Warrants. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, at the First Effective Time (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below)), each Public Warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action by the Registered Holder thereof, or any prior notice by the Company, be exchanged and deemed transferred by such Registered Holder to the Company, in consideration for the right to receive payment of cash from the Company in the amount of $1.50 per whole Public Warrant (the “Consideration”) to be delivered to such Registered Holder by or at the direction of the Company as soon as reasonably practicable. Thereafter, each such Registered Holder shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Public Warrants other than the right to receive the Consideration and this Agreement shall be deemed terminated with respect to the Public Warrants. “Business Combination Agreement” means that certain Business Combination Agreement by and among the Company, BRP Hold 11, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the person listed as the Blocker Holder on the signature pages to the Business Combination Agreement, Nebula Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation, NBLA Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company, NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation, Open Lending, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company solely in its capacity as the Securityholder Representative.

Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Amendment by or for the benefit of the Company or the Warrant Agent shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

Severability.

Effect of Headings. The section headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Amendment and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.
