OSPREY TECHNOLOGY ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations
Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp. (formerly known as Osprey Energy Acquisition Corp. II) (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware as a blank check company under the name “Osprey Acquisition Corp. II” on June 15, 2018. The Company changed its name to “Osprey Energy Acquisition Corp. II” on September 27, 2018 and then to “Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp.” on June 17, 2019. 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”).
To date, the Company’s efforts have been limited to organizational activities and activities relating to the initial public offering. The Company has not identified any acquisition target and has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any discussions, directly or indirectly, with respect to identifying any acquisition target. The Company has generated no revenues to date and it does not expect that it will generate operating revenues until it consummates an initial business combination at the earliest. Although the Company may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business or industry, it intends to focus on opportunities in the technology sector, particularly companies pursuing aSoftware-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) model.
As of September 30, 2019, the Company had not yet commenced operations. All activity for the period from June 15, 2018 (inception) through September 30, 2019 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below.
The registration statements for the Company’s Initial Public Offering were declared effective on October 31, 2019. On November 5, 2019, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 27,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $275,000,000, which is described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 7,500,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Osprey Sponsor II, LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $7,500,000, which is described in Note 4.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on November 5, 2019, an amount of $275,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), which will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.
On November 11, 2019, the underwriters notified the Company of their intention to exercise their over-allotment option in full on November 13, 2019. As such, on November 13, 2019, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 4,125,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, and the sale of an additional 825,000 Private Placement Warrants, at $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $42,075,000. A total of $41,250,000 of the net proceeds was deposited into the Trust Account, bringing the aggregate proceeds held in the Trust Account to $316,250,000.
Transaction costs for the Initial Public Offering amounted to $18,047,876 consisting of $6,325,000 of underwriting fees, $11,068,750 of deferred underwriting fees and $654,126 of other offering costs. In addition, $1,126,709 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company’s initial Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting fees and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
