SCHEDULE 13D

 

Explanatory Note

 

This Schedule 13D/A is filed on behalf of CF Finance Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), Cantor Fitzgerald, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Cantor”), CF Group Management, Inc., a New York corporation (“CFGM”) and Howard W. Lutnick (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).

 

This Schedule 13D/A is being filed as an amendment (“Amendment No. 1”) to the statement on Schedule 13D filed on December 26, 2018 (the “Schedule 13D”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on behalf of the Reporting Persons, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock of CF Finance Acquisition Corp. (the “Issuer”), pursuant to Rule 13d-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to amend and supplement certain information set forth below in the items indicated. Only those items that are amended or supplemented are reported herein. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D. 

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

 

On June 15, 2020, the Issuer issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $2,489,824.17 to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor loaned the Issuer the necessary funds to deposit in the Trust Account for each share of Class A common stock that was not redeemed in connection with the extension of the Issuer’s termination date from June 17, 2020 until September 17, 2020. Up to $750,000 of the note may be converted into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the Sponsor upon the consummation of the Issuer’s initial business combination. Such warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor at the Issuer’s initial public offering.

 

On August 2, 2020, the Issuer entered into a Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with Grosvenor Capital Management Holdings, LLLP, an Illinois limited liability limited partnership (“Grosvenor Capital”), GCM Grosvenor Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Grosvenor Capital (“GCM PubCo”) and the other parties thereto. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, the Issuer will be merged (the “Merger”) with and into GCM PubCo, with GCM PubCo surviving the Merger, as a result of which GCM PubCo, as the surviving corporation in the Merger, will hold approximately 21.4% of the outstanding equity interests of Grosvenor Capital. The shares of Class A common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock of GCM PubCo (“GCM PubCo Class A common stock) in connection with the Merger. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, the Sponsor will forfeit 2,351,534 shares of GCM PubCo Class A common stock and 150,000 GCM PubCo private placement warrants.

 

In addition, in connection with the Merger, on August 2, 2020, M. Klein Associates, Inc. (“M. Klein”) entered into an agreement with the Sponsor and the Issuer (the “Klein Agreement”) providing for, among other things, M. Klein’s purchase from the Sponsor following the closing of the Merger of 50% of the Sponsor’s remaining shares of Class B common stock of the Issuer as converted into shares of GCM PubCo Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger (the “Founder Shares”), including the cancellation of 2,351,534 shares of GCM PubCo Class A common stock, in exchange for an amount equal to (a) the cost that the Sponsor paid for such shares plus (b) the cost of certain of the Sponsor’s expenses, which shares shall be subject to substantially the same lock-up restrictions as those affecting the Sponsor’s Founder Shares.

Furthermore, in connection with the Merger, on August 2, 2020, the Issuer entered into Amendment No. 1 to Forward Purchase Contract with the Sponsor, which amends the Forward Purchase Contract between the Issuer and the Sponsor, dated as of December 12, 2018, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor has agreed, subject to the Issuer’s consummation of a business combination with GCM PubCo and its affiliates, to purchase (i) 1,500,000 GCM PubCo private placement warrants and (ii) 3,500,000 shares of GCM PubCo Class A common stock in exchange for an aggregate purchase price equal to $30,000,000. Each GCM PubCo private placement warrant will be exercisable to purchase one share of GCM PubCo Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50.

 

Except for the foregoing, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) and (c) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
