This amount of shares may vary based on the applicable conversion rate as further described below.

The source of funds for the Investment was cash on hand.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Items 2, 3, and 6 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated by reference in their entirety into this Item 4.

Each of the Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Preferred Stock for investment purposes. Consistent with such purposes, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with, without limitation, management, directors and shareholders (including Reporting Persons) of the Issuer, and may make suggestions concerning the Issuers operations, prospects, business and financial strategies, strategic transactions, assets and liabilities, business and financing alternatives, governance matters and such other matters as the Reporting Persons may deem relevant to their investment in the Preferred Stock and any Common Stock (as defined below) they then own, and with a view to maximizing stockholder value.


Each of the Reporting Persons expect to continuously review such Reporting Persons investment in the Issuer and, depending on various factors, including but not limited to, the price of shares of Class A Common Stock, the terms and conditions of the transaction, prevailing market conditions, the Issuers business and prospects, and such other considerations as such Reporting Person deems relevant, may at any time or from time to time, and subject to any applicable securities laws, regulatory requirements and the terms of the Investment Agreement, lend funds, invest in debt or similar securities or instruments issued by the Issuer, acquire additional shares of the Issuers Class A Common Stock or class B common stock (the Class B Common Stock, taken together with the Class A Common Stock, the Common Stock), preferred stock of the Issuer or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock from time to time on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, directly from the Issuer, or upon the exercise or conversion of securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock. Any transaction that the Reporting Persons may pursue may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice.

Each Reporting Person also may, at any time, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, regulatory requirements and the Investment Agreement, dispose of or distribute some or all of its Preferred Stock, Common Stock or such other securities or investments it owns or may subsequently acquire depending on various factors, including but not limited to, the price of shares of Common Stock, the terms and conditions of the transaction, the Issuers business and prospects, and prevailing market conditions, as well as liquidity and diversification objectives. Any transaction that the Reporting Persons may pursue may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice.

Based on the transactions and relationships described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a group for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act. The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that the Reporting Persons are a group, or have agreed to act as a group, and the existence of any such group is expressly disclaimed.

Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, or as would occur upon completion of any of the matters discussed in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals that would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D; provided, that the Reporting Persons may, at any time, review or reconsider their position with respect to the Issuer and reserve the right to develop such plans or proposals and may seek to influence management or the board of directors of the Issuer with respect to the business and affairs of the Issuer, and may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing any such transactions (including investment or strategic transactions) with advisors, the Issuer or other persons. As further described in Item 6, under the Investment Agreement the Reporting Persons are subject to customary standstill and non-transfer restrictions with respect to the Preferred Stock and the Warrants (as defined below), subject to certain limited exceptions.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

The information contained in rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and the information set forth or incorporated in Items 2, 3, 4 and 6 is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 5.

The Reporting Persons beneficially own 14,053,096 shares of Preferred Stock, which has an initial liquidation value of $9.00 per share plus the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon as of such date (the Liquidation Preference).

Each holder of Preferred Stock (each, a Holder and collectively, the Holders) will have the right, at its option, to convert its Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A Common Stock determined in accordance with the then-effective Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate is equal to the Liquidation Preference divided by the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price is initially $9.00 per share of Preferred Stock. The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments, including in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar events.


The Holders will be entitled to dividends on the Preferred Stock under certain circumstances as specified in the Certificate of Designations of the Preferred Stock (the Certificate of Designations), which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3, and is incorporated herein by reference, following the fifth anniversary of the Reference Date (as defined herein), following which the Holders will be entitled to dividends at a rate of 5.0% per annum. The Holders are also entitled to participate in dividends declared or paid on the Common Stock on an as-converted basis.

As described in Item 6, at the Closing, the Issuer issued eight tranches of warrants (the Warrants) to Carvana Group, which, if fully exercised by Carvana Group for cash, will provide Carvana Group with the opportunity to purchase approximately 129 million shares of Class A Common Stock representing 29.9% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding shares of the Issuers Common Stock on a fully-diluted basis as of August 11, 2021, subject to the respective exercise prices and conditions to exercise set forth in the Warrants. The Warrants are not currently exercisable.

As a result of their beneficial ownership of Preferred Stock, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 14,053,096 shares of Class A Common Stock which would be received upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, and represents, in the aggregate, approximately 11.0% of the outstanding shares of the Issuers Class A Common Stock on an as-converted basis, as calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons represents approximately 5.2% of the total Common Stock of the Issuer on an as-converted basis, representing approximately 0.48% of the total voting power of all Common Stock on an as-converted basis. Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations, due to accretion of dividends and adjustments, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted may vary over time.

Calculations of beneficial ownership and voting power described herein are based 114,186,275 shares of Class A Common Stock and 139,509,179 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding as of August 9, 2021, as set forth in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, dated June 30, 2021, filed on August 12, 2021.

Information with respect to the beneficial ownership of Class A Common Stock by the individuals listed in Schedule A is set forth in Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 5.

Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons, or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person listed in Schedule A, have effected any transaction in Class A Common Stock during the past 60 days.

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The information set forth in Items 2, 3, 4 and 5 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6, as applicable.

Investment Transaction

On August 11, 2021, the Issuer entered into the Investment Agreement with Carvana Group relating to the issuance and sale by the Issuer to Carvana Group of shares of Preferred Stock, and the issuance by the Issuer to Carvana Group of the Warrants.

In consideration for the Investment, the Issuer issued and sold to Carvana Group, at the Closing, 14,053,096 shares of Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock is initially convertible into 14,053,096 shares of the Issuers Class A Common Stock based on an initial liquidation preference equal to $9.00 per share. This represents 5.2% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding shares of the Issuers Common Stock, including the Preferred Stock, on an as-converted basis as of August 9, 2021.

At the Closing, a subsidiary of the Issuer and subsidiaries of Carvana Group entered into a commercial agreement with a five (5) year term that memorialized a partnership under which the parties will develop an integrated automobile insurance solution for Carvana Groups online car buying platform (the Integrated Platform). Under this commercial agreement, the Issuer will pay commissions to a subsidiary of Carvana Group for insurance policies purchased by Carvana Group customers through the Integrated Platform identified through agreed attribution guidelines, and will partner exclusively with Carvana Group in an enterprise total loss replacement vehicle solution. The commercial agreement contains mutually agreed remedies for breaches of exclusivity.

In addition, at the Closing, the Issuer issued the Warrants, which, if fully exercised by Carvana Group for cash, will provide Carvana Group with the opportunity to purchase approximately 129 million shares of Class A Common Stock, representing 29.9% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding shares of the Issuers Common Stock on a fully-diluted basis as of August 11, 2021, subject to the respective exercise prices and conditions to exercise set forth in the Warrants.


Certificate of Designations for Preferred Stock

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Preferred Stock to Carvana Group pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Issuer filed a Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in respect of the Preferred Stock at the Closing. The Certificate of Designations designates the rights and restrictions of the Preferred Stock, the material terms of which are described below:

 

   

The Preferred Stock has an aggregate initial liquidation preference of approximately $126 million and will be convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $9.00 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

   

The Preferred Stock was issued as perpetual securities with no fixed maturity date, and the Preferred Stock ranks superior to all junior Issuer stock, including both the Class A Common Stock and the shares of the Issuers Class B Common Stock.

 

   

The Preferred Stockholders are not entitled to any dividends, except under certain circumstances as specified in the Certificate of Designations following the fifth anniversary of the earlier of the date of completion of the Integrated Platform or 18 months following Closing (such earlier date, the Reference Date) following which the Preferred Stockholders will be entitled to dividends at a rate of 5.0% per annum.

 

   

The Preferred Stock is mandatorily convertible or redeemable in connection with any change of control of the Issuer.

 

   

The Preferred Stockholders have voting rights with the common stockholders on an as-if-converted basis, and has the right to vote as a separate class in a limited number of circumstances as specified in the Certificate of Designations.

Warrants

At the Closing, the Warrants were issued to Carvana Group (three tranches of which are short-term Warrants and five tranches of which are long-term Warrants). The short-term Warrants expire three years after the Reference Date and long-term Warrants expire five years after the Reference Date. The short-term Warrants have exercise prices of $10.00 to $12.00 and the long-term Warrants have exercise prices of $10.00 to $30.00. The Warrants are subject to certain conditions to exercise, including relating to the achievement of defined milestones tied to the development of the Integrated Platform and insurance sales through the Integrated Platform.

Investment Agreement

Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, Carvana Group is entitled to certain governance, consent and registration rights with respect to the Issuer. Carvana Groups governance rights under the Investment Agreement include the right to appoint Ernest Garcia III, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Carvana Group, to the board of directors of the Issuer (the Board). Carvana Group will no longer be entitled to appoint Mr. Garcia to the Board if Carvana Group ceases to beneficially own any of the Preferred Stock acquired by Carvana Group at the Closing. Carvana Group has not exercised its appointment right as of the date hereof.

In connection with the Investment Agreement, Carvana Group is subject to customary standstill and non-transfer restrictions in respect of the Preferred Stock and the Warrants for a five (5) year period following the Closing, subject to certain limited exceptions in the Investment Agreement.

Carvana Group has also covenanted in the Investment Agreement to make all required insurance regulatory filings with the Issuers domestic insurance regulators in the event that the conversion of the Preferred Stock or exercise of the Warrants would cause Carvana Group to hold in excess of 9.9% of the outstanding voting stock of the Issuer. Both Carvana Group and the Issuer must use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required regulatory approvals.

The foregoing description of the Investment Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Investment Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2, and is incorporated herein by reference.
