Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 16, 2021, Rapid7, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Rapid7”), Rapid7 International Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rapid7 (the “Purchaser”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of IntSights Cyber Intelligence Ltd., a private company limited by shares formed under the laws of the State of Israel (“IntSights”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on July 16, 2021, the Purchaser acquired (the “Acquisition”) all of the issued share capital of IntSights for approximately $335 million (the “Consideration”) consisting primarily of cash, subject to certain adjustments for IntSights’ working capital, transaction expenses, cash and indebtedness, and of deferred and unvested shares of Rapid7’s common stock to be issued to the founders of IntSights in connection with the transaction.

IntSights is a provider of contextualized external threat intelligence and proactive threat remediation.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, upon the closing of the Acquisition (the “Closing”), each of IntSights’ shareholders and holders of vested options to purchase IntSights’ ordinary shares became entitled to receive their pro rata portion of the Consideration in the form of cash, less the exercise price of vested options, as applicable. Options to purchase ordinary shares of IntSights that were not vested as of the Closing were canceled and following the Closing, certain holders of such options became entitled to receive substitute equity awards issued by Rapid7, in each case to be determined in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. In addition, each of IntSights’ founders agreed that the payment of 30% of their portion of the Consideration will be paid in the form of an aggregate of 206,608 shares of Rapid7’s common stock. The common stock Consideration will be deferred and paid over a thirty-month period following the Closing, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties and post-Closing covenants of Rapid7, Purchaser and IntSights that are customary for a transaction of this nature, as well as limitations on the obligations and liabilities of the shareholders of IntSights, including no recourse directly against the shareholders of IntSights for a breach of the business-related warranties. IntSights has obtained customary representation and warranty insurance.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the Acquisition is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
