Item 1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

As disclosed under the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal” beginning at page 77 of the final prospectus and definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 7, 2021 by Parent, Parent entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of December 21, 2020 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Parent, Juniper, JIH Merger Sub, Inc. (“JIH Merger Sub”), Jade Blocker Merger Sub 1, Inc. (“Blocker Merger Sub 1”), Jade Blocker Merger Sub 2, Inc. (“Blocker Merger Sub 2”), Jade Blocker Merger Sub 3, Inc. (“Blocker Merger Sub 3”), Jade Blocker Merger Sub 4, Inc. (“Blocker Merger Sub 4”), Jade Blocker Merger Sub 5, Inc. (“Blocker Merger Sub 5,” and, together with Blocker Merger Sub 1, Blocker Merger Sub 2, Blocker Merger Sub 3 and Blocker Merger Sub 4, the “Blocker Merger Subs” and together with Juniper, JIH Merger Sub, and Parent, the “Parent Parties”), Clearlake Capital Partners IV (AIV-Jupiter) Blocker, Inc. (“Blocker 1”), Clearlake Capital Partners IV (Offshore) (AIV-Jupiter) Blocker, Inc. (“Blocker 2”), Clearlake Capital Partners V (AIV-Jupiter) Blocker, Inc. (“Blocker 3”), Clearlake Capital Partners V (USTE) (AIV-Jupiter) Blocker, Inc. (“Blocker 4”), Clearlake Capital Partners V (Offshore) (AIV-Jupiter) Blocker, Inc. (“Blocker 5,” and, together with Blocker 1, Blocker 2, Blocker 3 and Blocker 4, the “Blockers”), Janus Midco, LLC (“Midco”), Jupiter Management Holdings, LLC, Jupiter Intermediate Holdco, LLC, J.B.I., LLC, and Cascade GP, LLC, solely in its capacity as equityholder representative.

The Business Combination Agreement provided for (a) JIH Merger Sub to be merged with and into Juniper with Juniper being the surviving corporation in the business combination and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, (b) each of the Blocker Merger Subs to be merged with and into the corresponding Blockers with such Blocker being the surviving corporation in each such business combination and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, (c) each other equityholder of Midco to contribute or sell, as applicable, all of its equity interests in Midco to Parent in exchange for cash and/or shares of common stock of Parent (“Parent common stock”) and (d) Parent to contribute all of the equity interests in Midco acquired pursuant to the foregoing transactions to Juniper (the transactions contemplated by the foregoing clauses (a)-(d) together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Transactions”) such that, as a result of the consummation of the Transactions, Midco became a wholly owned subsidiary of Juniper.

Item 2.01 of this Report discusses the consummation of the Transactions and various other transactions and events contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement which took place on June 7, 2021 (the “Closing”) and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On June 3, 2021, Juniper held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) at which the Juniper stockholders considered and adopted, among other matters, the Business Combination Agreement. On June 7, 2021, the parties consummated the Transactions.

At the Special Meeting, holders of 11,150 shares of Juniper common stock that were originally sold in its initial public offering (the “public shares”) exercised their rights to have such shares redeemed for cash in connection with the business combination.

70,270,400 shares of Parent common stock were issued to the existing equity holders of Midco at the Closing. Each outstanding share of common stock of Juniper was converted into one share of Parent common stock. The outstanding warrants of Juniper automatically entitle the holders to purchase shares of Parent common stock upon consummation of the Transactions.

2

Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions (including as a result of the conversions described above), there were 136,384,250 shares of Parent common stock and 27,400,000 Parent warrants issued and outstanding. Upon the Closing, Juniper’s common stock, warrants and units ceased trading, and shares of Parent common stock and Parent warrants began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbols “JBI” and “JBI WS,” respectively. As of the Closing, the pre-combination equity holders of Midco owned approximately 51.4% of the outstanding shares of Parent common stock and the former stockholders of Juniper (excluding the PIPE investors) owned approximately 30.2% of the outstanding shares of Parent common stock.

As noted above, the per share conversion price of approximately $10.05 for holders of public shares electing conversion was paid out of Juniper’s trust account, which had a balance immediately prior to the Closing of approximately $347 million. Following the payment of redemptions and after giving effect to the $250.0 million PIPE financing described below, Juniper had approximately $347 million of available cash for disbursement in connection with the Transactions. Of these funds, approximately $62.8 million was used to pay certain transaction expenses and $545.4 million was paid to Midco and Blocker Sellers as cash consideration in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement.

Amendments to the Sponsor Letter Agreement and Sponsor Registration and Stockholder Rights Agreement

In connection with the Closing, Juniper, Juniper Industrial Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”) and the other parties to the Sponsor Letter Agreement, dated November 7, 2019 (the “Sponsor Letter Agreement”), entered into an amendment to the Sponsor Letter Agreement (the “Sponsor Letter Agreement Amendment”) pursuant to which (i) all references to “Founder Shares” or “Common Stock” (each as defined in the Sponsor Letter Agreement) were replaced with references to Parent common stock, (ii) all references to “Private Placement Warrants” (as defined in the Sponsor Letter Agreement) were replaced with references to Parent warrants and (iii) Parent received third-party beneficiary rights to enforce certain rights and obligations of the Sponsor Letter Agreement.

In connection with the Closing, Juniper, the Sponsor and the other parties to the Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Agreement, dated November 13, 2019 (the “Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Agreement”), entered into an amendment to the Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Agreement (the “Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Amendment”) pursuant to which (i) all references to “Founder Shares” or “Common Stock” (each as defined in the Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Agreement) will be deemed to be references to Parent common stock, (ii) all references to “Private Placement Warrants” and “Working Capital Warrants” (each as defined in the Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Agreement) will be deemed to be references to Parent warrants, (iii) references to the registration rights to which the Sponsor is entitled are appropriately updated for the transaction structure and (iv) certain governance rights included in Article V of the Sponsor Registration and Stockholders Rights Agreement will be removed and the governance rights included in the Investor Rights Agreement will control.

This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amendment to Sponsor Letter Agreement Amendment and the Sponsor Registration and Stockholder Rights Agreement Amendment, which are included as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Report and are incorporated herein by reference.

Investor Rights Agreement

At the Closing, Parent entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) with CCG, the Sponsor, certain stockholders of Juniper and certain former stockholders of Midco with respect to the shares of Parent common stock issued as partial consideration under the Business Combination Agreement. The Investor Rights Agreement includes, among other things, the following provisions:

Registration Rights. Parent is required to file a resale shelf registration statement on behalf of the Parent security holders promptly after the Closing. The Investor Rights Agreement also provides certain demand rights and piggyback rights to the Parent security holders, subject to underwriter cutbacks and issuer blackout periods. Parent shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the resale shelf registration statement, any demand registration statement, any underwritten takedown, any block trade, any piggyback registration statement and all expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under the Investor Rights Agreement, whether or not the registration statement becomes effective.

3

Director Appointment. Subject to certain step down provisions, CCG has the right to nominate four board members (each, a “CCG Director”) and one board observer to the Parent board of directors. CCG retains these nomination rights until, in the case of CCG Director nomination rights, it no longer beneficially owns at least 10% of the total voting power of the then outstanding shares of Parent common stock. The Sponsor has the right to nominate two directors to the initial board (each a “Sponsor Director”). The four CCG Directors, the two Sponsor Directors, the two initial independent directors, and the Chief Executive Officer of Parent will comprise the initial board of directors appointed in connection with the business combination. The Board shall be divided in three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, with each director serving a three-year term and one class being elected at each year’s annual meeting of stockholders of Parent. One initial independent director, one CCG Director, and the Chief Executive Officer will be nominated as Class I directors with initial terms ending at Parent’s 2022 annual meeting of stockholders; one initial independent director, one CCG Director, and one Sponsor Director will be nominated as Class II directors with initial terms ending at Parent’s 2023 annual meeting of stockholders; and two CCG Directors and one Sponsor Director will be nominated as Class III directors with initial terms ending at Parent’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders.

This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Investor Rights Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 10.5 to this Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Indemnification Agreements

In connection with the Closing, Parent entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. Each indemnification agreement provides for indemnification and advancements by Parent of certain expenses and costs relating to claims, suits or proceedings arising from his or her service to Parent or, at our request, service to other entities, as officers or directors to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

The foregoing description of the indemnification agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the indemnification agreements, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Lock-Up Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Parent entered into a Lock-Up Agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) with CCG, pursuant to which CCG will not be able to (i) transfer Parent warrants beneficially owned or otherwise held by them for a period of 30 days from the Closing and (ii) transfer any other securities of Parent beneficially owned or otherwise held by them for a period of 180 days from the Closing (the “Lock-Up Period”), subject to certain customary exceptions.

This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Sponsor Lock-Up Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 10.4 to this Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Earnout Agreement

In connection with the Closing, Parent, Sponsor and the other holders of Juniper’s Class B common stock (such holders, together with the Sponsor, the “Class B Holders”) entered into Restricted Stock Agreement (the “Earnout Agreement”), pursuant to which 2,000,000 shares of Parent common stock (the “Earnout Shares”) held by the Class B Holders are subject to certain voting and transfer restrictions until such Earnout Shares vest in accordance with the terms of the Earnout Agreement. Pursuant to the Earnout Agreement, (i) 400,000 Earnout Shares vest and become unrestricted by the terms of the Earnout Agreement at such time as the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of a share of Parent common stock exceeds $11.50 (the “Minimum Price”) for any period of 10 trading days out of 20 consecutive trading days and (ii) an additional 1,600,000 Earnout Shares, plus the amount of Earnout Shares to become vested pursuant to clause (i) above vest at such time as the VWAP of a share of Parent common stock exceeds $12.50 (the “Maximum Price”) for any period of 10 trading days out of 20 consecutive trading days.

If Parent undergoes a change of control transaction on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing, all of the Earnout Shares (to the extent not previously vested) will automatically vest immediately prior to the consummation of such change of control. If Parent undergoes a change of control transaction (or enters into definitive agreements in respect of a change of control transaction) after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary of the Closing, then (i) 400,000 Earnout Shares (to the extent not previously vested) will automatically vest immediately prior to such change of control to the extent the per share price of Parent common stock payable to the holders thereof in such change of control exceeds the Minimum Price and (ii) an additional 1,600,000 Earnout Shares, plus the amount of Earnout Shares to become vested pursuant to clause (i) above (to the extent not previously vested) will automatically vest immediately prior to such change of control to the extent the per share of Parent common stock payable to the holders thereof in such change of control exceeds the Maximum Price.

Warrant Agreement

In connection with the Closing and in accordance with the Juniper Warrant Agreement, Parent and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company entered into the Parent Warrant Agreement principally to (i) reflect that the warrants issuable thereunder constitute warrants exercisable for Parent common stock (rather than the common stock of Juniper) and (ii) remove provisions in the warrant agreement, dated November 13, 2019, by and between Juniper and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company that relate to Juniper’s pre-closing status as a blank check company incorporated for the purpose of acquiring one or more operating businesses through a business combination (including delineations between public warrants, private placement warrants and working capital warrants, provisions related to the issuance of working capital warrants and provisions related to Juniper’s initial public offering)

Certain of Parent’s officers and directors committed to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 of the PIPE Shares as part of the PIPE Investment.

The PIPE Investment closed on June 7, 2021 and the issuance of an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of Parent common stock occurred concurrently with the consummation of the Transactions.

FORM 10 INFORMATION

Item 2.01(f) of Form 8-K states that if the predecessor registrant was a shell company, as Juniper was immediately before the Transactions, then the registrant must disclose the information that would be required if the registrant were filing a general form for registration of securities on Form 10. Accordingly, Janus, as the successor issuer to Juniper, is providing the information below that would be included in a Form 10 if Janus were to file a Form 10.

However, there may be events in the future that Parent’s management is not able to predict accurately or over which Parent has no control. The risk factors and cautionary language contained in this Report, and incorporated herein by reference, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations described in such forward-looking statements, including among other things:

• the ability to maintain the listing of Parent’s securities on a national securities exchange;

• changes adversely affecting the business in which Parent is engaged;

• the ongoing impact of the coronavirus pandemic and its effect on Parent or its customers;

• Parent’s ability to execute on its plans to develop and market new products and the timing of these development programs;

• Parent’s ability to compete in the highly competitive payment processing industry;

• the rate and degree of market acceptance of Parent’s solutions and products;

• Parent’s ability to identify and integrate acquisitions;

• the performance and security of Parent’s services and products;

During the period of Marcum’s engagement by Juniper, and the subsequent interim period preceding Marcum’s dismissal, there were no disagreements with Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports covering such periods.
