Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.



On September 7, 2020, AppFolio, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("AppFolio"),
entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with
Mockingbird AcquisitionCo Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Buyer"), an entity
affiliated with funds advised by Apax Partners LLP ("Apax"), and MyCase, Inc., a
California corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of AppFolio ("MyCase") that
provides legal practice and case management software solutions to law firms.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, AppFolio will sell 100% of the
issued and outstanding equity interests of MyCase to Buyer at an enterprise
value of $193 million (the "Transaction"). The cash to be received by AppFolio
is subject to certain customary adjustments specified in the Purchase Agreement.
AppFolio expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the Transaction to
repay all borrowings under, and terminate, AppFolio's credit facility with Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association.

Each party's obligation to consummate the Transaction is subject to certain
closing conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including, among
others, (i) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of each party's
representations and warranties, (ii) performance in all material respects by
each of the parties of their respective covenants and obligations, (iii) the
receipt of antitrust approval and (iv) the absence of any law, injunction or
other order that prevents or makes illegal the consummation of the Transaction.
The closing of the Transaction (the "Closing") is expected to occur before the
end of the quarter ending September 30, 2020, subject to the satisfaction of the
closing conditions set forth above.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and
covenants by each party that are subject, in some cases, to specified exceptions
and qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement and the confidential
disclosure schedules related thereto. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and
subject to the conditions set forth therein, at the Closing, AppFolio and MyCase
will enter into certain ancillary agreements, including agreements relating to
post-Closing intellectual property matters and transition services.

The Purchase Agreement also includes certain termination rights, including (i)
at any time by the mutual agreement of AppFolio and Buyer, (ii) by either Buyer
or AppFolio if the Transaction is not consummated by November 19, 2020, (iii) by
either Buyer or AppFolio, if any order or law permanently prohibits the
consummation of the Transaction, (iv) by either Buyer or AppFolio, if the other
party is in breach of its respective representations and warranties or covenants
under the Purchase Agreement and such breach would reasonably be expected to
give rise to the failure of a closing condition (subject to a cure period) or
(v) by AppFolio, if (A) the conditions to the obligations of the parties to
Close set forth in the Purchase Agreement have otherwise been satisfied or
waived, (B) AppFolio and MyCase are ready, willing, and able to consummate the
Closing and (C) Buyer fails to consummate the Closing within three business days
after the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to the terms of the
Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
Purchase Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Purchase Agreement
has been included to provide investors and stockholders with information
regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other information about
AppFolio or its subsidiaries and affiliates. The Purchase Agreement contains
representations, warranties and covenants by each of AppFolio and Buyer. These
representations, warranties and covenants were made solely for the benefit of
the parties to the Purchase Agreement and (i) may have been used for purposes of
allocating risk between the respective parties rather than establishing matters
as facts, (ii) may have been qualified in the Purchase Agreement by confidential
disclosure schedules that were delivered in connection with the signing of the
Purchase Agreement, which disclosure schedules may contain information that
modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties
and covenants set forth in the Purchase Agreement, (iii) may be subject to a
contractual standard of materiality applicable to the parties that differs from
what an investor or stockholder may view as material, and (iv) may have been
made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or as of another date or
dates as may be specified in the Purchase Agreement. Information concerning the
subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the
Purchase Agreement may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, and any
such subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in AppFolio's
public disclosures, if at all. Accordingly, investors and stockholders should
not rely upon the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the
Purchase Agreement or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the
actual state of facts or condition of AppFolio or its subsidiaries and
affiliates.


Item 8.01 Other Events.

On September 8, 2020, AppFolio issued a press release announcing the Transaction. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
