ONE MADISON CORPORATION (NYSE: OMAD) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 3.02. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Transaction Agreement
On December 12, 2018, One Madison Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“One Madison” or the “Company”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Rack Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Seller”), and Rack Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Seller (“Rack Holdings”), to which One Madison will acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Rack Holdings from Seller, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The transactions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement will result in a “Business Combination” involving the Company for purposes of the Company’s Amended & Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Charter”). The Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
Stock Purchase Agreement
Consideration
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement, One Madison has agreed to pay to Seller at the closing of the Business Combination (“Closing”) $950 million in cash in consideration for the acquisition of Rack Holdings, which amount will be (i) adjusted by the difference between the net working capital of Rack Holdings and its subsidiaries as of Closing as measured against normalized level of working capital of $22,000,000 (which could be a downward or upward adjustment), (ii) increased by the amount of cash of Rack Holdings and its subsidiaries as of Closing and (iii) reduced by the amount of debt and unpaid transaction expenses of Rack Holdings and its subsidiaries as of Closing. The purchase price paid at Closing will be based on an estimate of the amount of the foregoing adjustments and will be subject to a customary post-Closing true-up.
Financing for the Business Combination and for related transaction expenses will consist of (i) $300 million of proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) on deposit in the trust account (plus any interest income accrued thereon since the IPO), net of any redemptions of the Company’s ordinary shares in connection with the shareholder vote to be held in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, (ii) $150 million of proceeds from the forward purchase agreements entered into in connection with the IPO, (iii) $142 million of proceeds from subscription agreements entered into in connection with the Business Combination and (iv) up to $650 million of senior secured credit facilities provided by Goldman Sachs Merchant Banking Division, each as described more fully below.
Conditions to Closing
The Closing is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including approval by the Company’s shareholders of the additional equity issuances relating to the equity financing, the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the German Act Against Restraints on Competition, the accuracy of the parties’ respective representations and warranties and compliance with the parties’ respective covenant obligations (each to certain specified materiality standards), and the absence of a “Material Adverse Effect” on Rack Holdings and its subsidiaries.
Termination
The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary termination rights, including (i) by mutual written consent of the parties; (ii) by either party if (a) the Closing has not occurred on or prior to July 12, 2019, unless such party’s failure to comply in all material respects with the covenants and agreements contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement causes the failure of the Business Combination to be consummated by such time, (b) the consummation of the Business Combination is permanently enjoined or prohibited by the terms of a final, non-appealable governmental order or a statute, rule or regulation, (c) the representations, warranties or covenants of the other party are breached such that there is a failure of the related closing condition (subject to a 30-day cure period) or (d) the Company does not obtain the approval of its shareholders upon a vote taken thereon at the Company shareholder meeting; and (iii) by Seller if (a) the Company’s Board of Directors withdraws its recommendation that shareholders approve the transaction, (b) the Company shareholder approval is not obtained at the Company’s first call of its shareholder meeting or (c) the Company fails to consummate the Business Combination on the 10th business day following the satisfaction or waiver of the last condition to closing (subject to a further 10-business-day cure period).
Representations, Warranties and Covenants
The parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Stock Purchase Agreement, including, among others, covenants with respect to the conduct of Rack Holdings during the period between execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Closing. Seller is not providing the Company with an indemnity in connection with the Business Combination for inaccuracies in Seller’s or Rack Holding’s representations or warranties or for breaches of Seller’s or Rack Holding’s covenant obligations. The Company has purchased a representation and warranty liability insurance policy on customary terms, which provides limited protection to the Company for inaccuracies in Seller’s and Rack Holding’s representations and warranties and for certain pre-closing taxes of Rack Holdings and its subsidiaries. The representation and warranty liability insurance policy is subject to certain significant coverage limits and exclusions and therefore does not provide comprehensive protection to the Company for these matters.
The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Business Combination does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Stock Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other as of the date of such agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating such agreement. The Stock Purchase Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Rack Holdings, Seller or any other party to the Stock Purchase Agreement. In particular, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, which were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties (including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts) and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors and reports and documents filed with the SEC. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, or any descriptions thereof, as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of any party to the Stock Purchase Agreement. In addition, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements and other terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement may be subject to subsequent waiver or modification. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties and other terms may change after the date of the Stock Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in One Madison’s public disclosures.
Consent of Forward Contract Parties
Concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, One Madison entered into a consent (the “FPA Consent”) with parties to the Forward Purchase Agreements, as amended (the “Forward Purchase Agreements” or “FPAs”), dated October 5, 2017 and amended on December 15, 2017 and January 5, 2018, that have committed to purchase substantially all of the forward purchase shares to which, among other things, the consenting FPA parties consented to the entry into the Stock Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing description of the FPA Consent is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.
Subscription Agreements

The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements will occur immediately prior to the completion of the Business Combination. The funding of such amounts is subject to customary conditions, including the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to Closing set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Subscription Agreements automatically terminate upon the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement or upon the mutual written consent of the Company and the Subscribing Parties.
The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreement is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such amended and restated agreement, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.
Voting Agreement

(together, the “BSOF Entities”) entered into an Amended and Restated Voting Agreement (the “Voting Agreement”), to which the BSOF Entities, holders of 4,000,000 Class A Shares, agree to vote any Class A Shares they hold in favor of any shareholder approvals sought by the Company in connection with the Business Combination and not to exercise any right of redemption in respect of such Class A Shares.
The Voting Agreement requires the BSOF Entities to obtain prior written consent of the Company before transferring any Class A shares prior to the termination of the Voting Agreement. The Voting Agreement will automatically terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the completion of the Business Combination, (ii) the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement and (iii) prior to the completion of the Business Combination by the mutual written consent of the Company and the BSOF Entities.
The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such amended and restated agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.

The assignment contemplated by the FPA Assignment and Assumption Agreement does not relieve the Assignor of his obligations with respect to the portion of the Forward Purchase Agreement commitment assigned thereunder.
The foregoing description of the FPA Assignment and Assumption Agreement is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.
Working Capital Promissory Note
Concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, One Madison issued a $4,000,000 Global Promissory Note (the “Working Capital Promissory Note”) to certain of the sources of equity financing for the Business Combination under the Forward Purchase Agreements and the Subscription Agreements in exchange for $4,000,000 of financing to be used for the payment of working capital expenses, including expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination. The note is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on the earliest of (i)the Closing of the Business Combination, (ii) 30 days after the date on which the Stock Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and (iii) September 12, 2019.

Reallocation Agreement
Concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, One Madison entered into a reallocation agreement (the “Reallocation Agreement”) with the sources of equity financing for the Business Combination under the Forward Purchase Agreements and the Subscription Agreements, to which the Class B Shares issued and the rights to acquire warrants to purchase Class A Shares arising under the Forward Purchase Agreements have been reallocated among all equity financing sources pro rata based on the aggregate amount of equity financing provided by such equity financing source under the Forward Purchase Agreements and the Subscription Agreements. The reallocation was effective as of the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Reallocation Agreement is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.6 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company has the ability to bring in additional revolving lenders to provide up to $30 million additional commitments under the Revolving Facility within 15 business days after the date of the Debt Commitment Letter. The obligations of the Lenders to provide debt financing under the Debt Commitment Letter are subject to a number of conditions.
The foregoing description of the Debt Commitment Letter is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.7 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.
Class B Share Consent
Concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, shareholders holding more than two-thirds of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Shares”), entered into a consent (the “Class B Share Consent”) to which such shareholders, on behalf of themselves and all other holders of Class B Shares, waived the anti-dilution protection benefiting the Class B Shares under the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (“Charter”) with respect to (i) the Class A Shares and Class C Shares to be issued to the Subscription Agreements and (ii) any Class A Shares or Class C Shares to be issued by the Company in connection with the exchange of any of the Company’s outstanding private placement warrants. As such, assuming no other equity securities are issued in connection with the Business Combination and assuming no redemption of Class A Shares by the Company’s shareholders, on the business day following the consummation of the Business Combination, each Class B Share will convert into one Class A Share or Class C Share as applicable.
The foregoing description of the Class B Share Consent is not a complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.8 hereto, and incorporated herein by reference.
