Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 22, 2021, Nutanix, Inc. (the "Company") consummated the previously
announced privately negotiated exchanges and/or subscriptions with certain
holders of its outstanding 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the "2023
Notes") and certain new investors pursuant to which the Company issued $575
million in aggregate principal amount of the Company's 0.25% Convertible Senior
Notes due 2027 (the "New Notes") consisting of (a) approximately $477.3 million
principal amount of New Notes in exchange for approximately $416.5 million
principal amount of the 2023 Notes (the "Exchange Transactions") and (b)
approximately $97.7 million principal amount of New Notes for cash (the
"Subscription Transactions" and together with the Exchange Transactions, the
"Transactions"), in each case, pursuant to exemptions from registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations
thereunder. The Company also consummated the previously announced privately
negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2023 Notes pursuant to which
the Company repurchased approximately $12.8 million principal amount of the 2023
Notes for cash (the "Note Repurchases"). Following the consummation of the
Exchange Transactions and the Note Repurchases, approximately $145.7 million in
aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes remains outstanding with terms
unchanged.
The Company did not receive any cash proceeds from the Exchange Transactions. In
exchange for issuing the balance of the New Notes pursuant to the Exchange
Transactions, the Company received and cancelled the 2023 Notes exchanged
therefor. The Company estimates that net cash proceeds from the Subscription
Transactions were approximately $88.4 million after deducting estimated offering
expenses for the Transactions. The Company intends to use (i) approximately
$14.7 million of the net cash proceeds from the Subscription Transactions for
the Note Repurchases and (ii) approximately $58.5 million of the net cash
proceeds from the Subscription Transactions for the Stock Repurchase (as defined
below). The Company intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the
Subscription Transactions for general corporate purposes.
Indenture
On September 22, 2021, the Company entered into an Indenture relating to the
issuance of the New Notes (the "Indenture"), by and between the Company and U.S.
Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The New Notes bear
interest from September 22, 2021 at a rate of 0.25% per year payable
semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on
April 1, 2022. The New Notes will mature on October 1, 2027, unless earlier
redeemed or repurchased by the Company or converted pursuant to their terms.
Upon conversion, the Company will be required to pay or deliver, as the case may
be, cash, shares of the Company's Class A common stock ("Common Stock") or a
combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company's election.
The initial conversion rate of the New Notes is 17.3192 shares of Common Stock
per $1,000 principal amount of New Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion
price of approximately $57.74 per share). The conversion rate will be subject to
adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events. In addition, upon
the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture),
the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a
holder that elects to convert its New Notes in connection with such make-whole
fundamental change.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding July 1,
2027, the New Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances:
(1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after January 31, 2022, and only during
such fiscal quarter, if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock for at
least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in a period of 30 consecutive
trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately
preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion
price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period
after any five consecutive trading day period in which, for each trading day of
that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of New Notes for such
trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of
the Common Stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) if the
Company calls the New Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of
business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the
redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or
after July 1, 2027, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading
day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders of the New Notes may
convert all or a portion of their New Notes regardless of the foregoing
conditions.
The Company may not redeem the New Notes prior to October 5, 2024. On or after
October 5, 2024, and prior to the 31st scheduled trading day immediately
preceding the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or any portion
of the New Notes, at its option (subject to the partial redemption limitation
(as defined below)), if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has
been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20
trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day
period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including,
the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides
