Item 8.01. Other Events.
On December 31, 2021, Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), entered into a Cash Contribution, Exchange and
Forfeiture Agreement (the "Contribution Agreement"), dated as of December 31,
2021, by and among the Company, Maravai Topco Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("Topco"), and Maravai Life Sciences Holdings, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company and affiliate of the Company ("MLSH 1"). Pursuant to
the Contribution Agreement, the Company contributed $110 million to Topco in
exchange for 2,732,919 newly-issued units (the "Common Units") of Topco at a
price per unit of $40.25, such price being equal to the 50-day Volume-Weighted
Average Price of the Company's publicly-traded Class A common stock, par value
$0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), as calculated on December 31,
2021. Immediately following the foregoing contribution, in order to maintain the
1:1 ratio of the Company's Class A Common Stock to Common Units held by the
Company, each of the Company and MLSH 1 agreed to forfeit 2.036% of their
respective Common Units of Topco, resulting in the Company's forfeiture of
2,732,919 Common Units and MLSH 1's forfeiture of 2,570,415 Common Units and an
equal number of shares of the Company's Class B common stock, par value $0.01
per share (the "Class B Common Stock"), for no consideration. The purpose of the
Contribution Agreement is to reduce the excess cash that has accumulated at the
Company as a result of its "Up-C" structure and the quarterly tax distributions
it has received from Topco since its initial public offering, making that cash
accessible to our operating companies.
Prior to these transactions, (i) the holders of the Company's Class A Common
Stock had 51.0% of the voting power in the Company, (ii) MLSH 1, through
ownership of the Company's Class B Common Stock, had 49.0% of the voting power
of the Company, (iii) MLSH 1 owned 49.0% of the outstanding Common Units of
Topco, and (iv) the Company owned 51.0% of the outstanding Common Units of
Topco.
As a result of these transactions, the resultant control and ownership
percentages have each adjusted approximately 0.5% as follows: (i) the holders of
the Company's Class A Common Stock have 51.5% of the voting power in the
Company, (ii) MLSH 1 has 48.5% of the voting power of the Company, (iii) MLSH 1
owns 48.5% of the outstanding Common Units of Topco, and (iv) the Company owns
51.5% of the outstanding Common Units of Topco.
