Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Merger Agreement
On May 11, 2021, InterPrivate II Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
("InterPrivate"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among
InterPrivate, TMPST Merger Sub I Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct,
wholly-owned subsidiary of InterPrivate ("First Merger Sub"), TMPST Merger Sub
II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned
subsidiary of InterPrivate ("Second Merger Sub"), and Getaround, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Getaround") (as may be amended and/or restated from time
to time, the "Merger Agreement"). The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved
by InterPrivate's board of directors. If the Merger Agreement is approved by
InterPrivate's and Getaround's stockholders (and the other closing conditions
are satisfied or waived in accordance with the Merger Agreement), and the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are consummated, (a) First
Merger Sub will merge with and into Getaround (the "First Merger"), with
Getaround being the surviving corporation of the First Merger; and
(b) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall
transaction as the First Merger, the surviving corporation from the First Merger
will merge with and into Second Merger Sub (the "Second Merger" and, together
with the First Merger, the "Mergers"), with Second Merger Sub being the
surviving company of the Second Merger (such transactions, collectively, the
"Proposed Transaction"). In addition, in connection with the consummation of the
Proposed Transaction (the "Closing"), InterPrivate will be renamed "Getaround,
Inc." and is referred to herein as "Pubco" as of the time following the Closing
and such change of name.
Merger Consideration
Under the Merger Agreement, holders of Getaround's equity interests are expected
to receive approximately $800,000,000 ("the Base Purchase Price") in aggregate
consideration in the form of Pubco Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per
share ("Pubco Class A Common Stock"), equal to the quotient obtained by dividing
(i) the Base Purchase Price by (ii) the per share price of $10.00 at the Closing
plus the number of shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock comprising the Earnout
Shares (as defined below).
Under the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the effective time of the First
Merger and after each the exercise of any issued and outstanding Getaround
preferred stock warrants, each issued and outstanding share of Getaround
preferred stock, Getaround non-voting common stock and Getaround Class B
non-voting common stock will automatically convert into one share of Getaround
common stock. At the effective time of the First Merger, each share of Getaround
common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of
the First Merger, including any shares resulting from the conversion of any
securities convertible into Getaround common stock in connection with the
Closing, will be canceled and automatically deemed, for all purposes, to
represent the right to receive a number of shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock
set forth opposite the names of the holders of such Getaround common stock set
forth in the Payment Spreadsheet (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
In addition, under the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the First
Merger, (i) each Company In-the-Money Vested Option (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the
effective time of the First Merger will be converted (with such conversion
calculated net of any applicable exercise price) into a right to receive a
number of shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock as set forth in the Payment
Spreadsheet, (ii) each option to purchase shares of Getaround common stock
granted under the Getaround stock plan that is not a Company In-the-Money Vested
Option and that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the
effective time of the First Merger will be assumed by InterPrivate and will be
converted into an option to purchase shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock,
(iii) each restricted stock unit covering shares of Getaround common stock
granted under the Getaround stock plan that is unvested and outstanding
immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger will be assumed by
InterPrivate and will be converted into a restricted stock unit covering shares
of Pubco Class A Common Stock, (iv) after giving effect to the exercise of all
Getaround warrants for Getaround capital stock in accordance with their terms
prior to the Closing, each warrant to purchase shares of Getaround capital stock
that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the effective time of
the First Merger (whether vested or unvested) will automatically terminate in
accordance with its terms and be of no further or effect as of the effective
time of the First Merger; provided that the foregoing will not affect the
ability of a holder of any Getaround warrants to exercise any such Getaround
warrants in connection with the Proposed Transactions pursuant to the terms of
Getaround warrants and (v) each Bridge Note (as defined in the Merger Agreement)
and New Getaround Bridge Note
1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(as defined in the Merger Agreement) that is outstanding at the effective time
of the First Merger will convert in accordance with its terms and each holder
thereof will receive that number of shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock set
forth opposite such holder's name in the Payment Spreadsheet.
9,333,333 shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock issuable as part of the Base
Purchase Price will be set aside in an escrow account at Closing (the "Escrow
Shares"). One million (1,000,000) Escrow Shares will be set aside and allocated
as agreed upon by InterPrivate and Getaround, including for the benefit of some
or all of the Non-Redeeming Parent Stockholders (as defined in the Merger
Agreement). In the event of a PIPE Investment (as defined below), a number of
Escrow Shares equal to (i) 8,333,333 multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (A) the
numerator of which will be the lesser of (y) the PIPE Investment Amount (as
defined below) and (z) $125,000,000 and (B) the denominator of which will be
$125,000,000 (the "PIPE Protection Shares"), will be set aside for the benefit
of the PIPE Investors (as defined below) and will be allocable to the PIPE
Investors pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements (as defined below) and
the Escrow Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and the PIPE
Protection Shares will be the only shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock in the
Escrow Account set aside for the PIPE Investors. Further, subject to the terms
of Escrow Shares reserved for Non-Redeeming Parent Stockholders and the PIPE
Investors, a remaining portion of the Escrow Shares, including any remaining
PIPE Protection Shares not allocated (the "Additional Shares") will be set aside
and allocated as agreed upon by Parent and Getaround, including, in case the
PIPE Investment Amount is less than $125,000,000, for the benefit of some or all
of the Non-Redeeming Parent Stockholders. If InterPrivate and Getaround are
unable to agree upon an allocation of the Additional Shares, then all of the
Additional Shares will be allocated for the benefit of the Non-Redeeming Parent
Stockholders. After giving effect to the aforesaid, should any of the Escrow
Shares remain, then InterPrivate and Getaround will, as soon as practicable,
instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute such Escrow Shares pro rata to
Getaround's stockholders.
In addition to the aggregate consideration above, following the Closing, Pubco
will issue up to an additional 34,000,000 shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock
("Earnout Shares") to equity interest holders of Getaround and holders of Bridge
Notes and up to an additional 11,000,000 shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock to
certain personnel of Getaround as earnout consideration in tranches based upon
the volume weighted average price of Pubco Class A Common Stock for any twenty
(20) Trading Days (as defined in the Merger Agreement) within a period of thirty
(30) consecutive Trading Days at any time following the Closing Date (as defined
in the Merger Agreement) until the seven (7) year anniversary of the Closing
Date. These price targets range from $13.50 to $55. Further, the payment of the
earnout consideration is subject to acceleration in the event of a change of
control of Pubco in which the stockholders of Pubco have the right to exchange
their shares for consideration based on certain value thresholds.
Representations, Warranties and Covenants
The parties to the Merger Agreement have made customary representations and
warranties for transactions of this type. The representations and warranties
made under the Merger Agreement will not survive the Closing except for claims
with respect to actual fraud. In addition, the parties to the Merger Agreement
agreed to be bound by certain customary covenants for transactions of this type,
including, among others, covenants with respect to the conduct of the business
and operations of InterPrivate and Getaround and their respective subsidiaries
prior to the Closing. The covenants under the Merger Agreement also will not
survive the Closing unless they are, by their terms, required to be performed
after the Closing and except for claims with respect to actual fraud. The
parties agreed to, subject to certain exceptions, use their respective best
efforts to consummate the Proposed Transaction in the most expeditious manner
practicable.
