Organization and Business Operations | 1. Organization and Business Operations Organization and General Gores Holdings II, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on August 15, 2016. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenue to date. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the Business Combination. The Company’s Sponsor is Gores Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The Company has selected December 31 st as its fiscal year-end. At June 30, 2018, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 15, 2016 (inception) through June 30, 2018 relates to the Company’s formation and initial public offering (“Public Offering”) described below. The Company completed the Public Offering on January 19, 2017 (the “IPO Closing Date”). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its Business Combination, at the earliest. Subsequent to the Public Offering, the Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined below) held in the Trust Account (as defined below). Proposed Verra Mobility Business Combination On June 21, 2018, the Company, AM Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), AM Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), Greenlight Holding II Corporation (“Greenlight”) and PE Greenlight Holdings, LLC (the “Platinum Stockholder” or, in its capacity as the Stockholder Representative, the “Stockholder Representative”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger Agreement (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, (i) the merger of First Merger Sub with and into Greenlight, with Greenlight continuing as the surviving corporation (the “First Merger”) and (ii) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the merger of Greenlight with and into Second Merger Sub with Second Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Proposed Business Combination”). As a result of the First Merger, the Company will own 100% of the outstanding common stock of Greenlight and each share of common stock of Greenlight will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a portion of the consideration. As a result of the Second Merger, the Company will own 100% of the outstanding interests in the Second Merger Sub. Following the closing of the Proposed Business Combination, the Company will own, directly or indirectly, all the stock of Greenlight and its subsidiaries and the stockholders of Greenlight as of immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger (the “Greenlight Stockholders”) will hold a portion of the Company's Class A common stock. The Merger Agreement The consideration to be paid to the Greenlight Stockholders will be a combination of cash and stock, as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and certain other transaction documents contemplated thereby. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate consideration payable to the Greenlight Stockholders will consist of (i) an amount in cash equal to the Closing Cash Payment Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and (ii) shares of newly-issued Class A common stock equal to the Closing Number of Securities (as defined in the Merger Agreement). The merger consideration payable to the Greenlight Stockholders is also subject to adjustment based on Greenlight’s working capital, cash and indebtedness as of the closing date, among other adjustments contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Based upon assumed net indebtedness of approximately $852 million (after giving effect to the partial repayment of existing indebtedness), the aggregate merger consideration to be paid by the Company is expected to be approximately $2.3 billion. In addition to the consideration to be paid at the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, certain of the Greenlight Stockholders will be entitled to receive additional earn-out payments from the Company of up to an aggregate of 10 million shares of Class A common stock, if the price of Class A common stock trading on the Nasdaq exceeds certain thresholds during the five-year period following the closing of the Mergers. Consummation of the Transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions as well as specified cash availability conditions. The Merger Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and may be terminated by the parties thereto as specified therein. In order to facilitate the Proposed Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to the cancellation of 3,478,261 of its Founder Shares and the Company has agreed to the purchase of shares of Class A common stock by the participants in the Private Placement (as defined below) (pursuant to the subscription agreements entered into in connection therewith) at a discounted price of $9.20. Private Placement Subscription Agreements On June 21, 2018, the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain investors, including the Sponsor, pursuant to which the investors have agreed to purchase in the aggregate 43,478,261 shares of Class A common stock in a private placement for $9.20 per share (the “Private Placement”). The anticipated gross proceeds from the Private Placement of approximately $400,000,000 will be used to partially fund the cash consideration to be paid to the Greenlight Stockholders. The Private Placement is conditioned on, among other things, the closing of the Proposed Business Combination. Tax Receivable Agreement At the closing of the Proposed Business Combination, the Company will enter into a Tax Receivable Agreement with the the Platinum Stockholder and the Stockholder Representative. The Tax Receivable Agreement will generally provide for the payment by the Company to the Platinum Stockholder of 50% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that the Company actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) in periods after the closing of the Proposed Business Combination, as a result of the increase in tax basis of the intangible assets of Highway Toll Administration LLC (“HTA”) resulting from the acquisition of HTA by Verra Mobility Corporation prior to the Proposed Business Combination. The Company generally will retain benefit of the remaining 50% of these cash savings. Financing Upon the IPO Closing Date and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, an aggregate of $400,000,000 was placed in a Trust Account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”). Trust Account Funds held in the Trust Account can be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a‑7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, that invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. As of June 30, 2018, the Trust Account consisted of cash and treasury bills compliant with Rule 2a‑7. The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay income taxes, if any, none of the funds held in trust will be released until the earliest of: (i) the completion of the Business Combination; or (ii) the redemption of any public shares of common stock properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of such public shares of common stock if the Company does not complete the Business Combination within 24 months from the IPO Closing Date; or (iii) the redemption of 100% of the public shares of common stock if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the IPO Closing Date, subject to the requirements of law and stock exchange rules. Business Combination The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Public Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination. The Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest income earned) at the time of the Company signing a definitive agreement in connection with the Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination, including the Proposed Business Combination. The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for a Business Combination, is required to either (i) seek stockholder approval of the Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest income but less taxes payable, or (ii) provide stockholders with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a stockholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest income but less taxes payable. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of the Business Combination or will allow stockholders to sell their shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek stockholder approval, unless a vote is required by law or under NASDAQ rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval, it will complete its Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. Currently, the Company will not redeem its public shares of common stock in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its public shares of common stock and the related Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination. For business and other reasons, the Company has elected to provide its stockholders with the opportunity to have their public shares redeemed in connection with a stockholder vote to approve the Proposed Business Combination rather than a tender offer. As a result of the foregoing redemption provisions, the public shares of common stock will be recorded at the redemption amount and classified as temporary equity, in accordance with ASC 480, “ Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ” (“ASC 480”) in subsequent periods. The Company will have 24 months from the IPO Closing Date to complete its Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within this period of time, it shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares of common stock for a per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account, including interest income, but less taxes payable (less up to $100,000 of such net interest income to pay dissolution expenses) and (iii) as promptly as possible following such redemption, dissolve and liquidate the balance of the Company’s net assets to its remaining stockholders, as part of its plan of dissolution and liquidation. The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they waived their rights to participate in any redemption with respect to their Founder Shares (as defined below); however, if the Sponsor or any of the Company’s officers, directors or affiliates acquire public shares of common stock, they will be entitled to a pro rata share of the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the required time period. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per Unit in the Public Offering. Emerging Growth Company Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. |
