The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant.
This Amendment (“Amendment No. 2”) amends the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on October 12, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1, filed with the SEC on August 24, 2022, (“Amendment No. 1,” and together with the Original Schedule 13D, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the Issuer, with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer. Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified and remains in full force and effect. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 2 have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | ||||
The information set forth in Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is amended as follows:
The information relating to the beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Stock by each of the Reporting Persons set forth in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages hereto is incorporated by reference herein and is as of the date hereof.
Each holder of Preferred Stock 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 subject to customary adjustments, including in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar events.
Carvana Group, LLC currently holds eight tranches of warrants of the Issuer, three tranches of which are “short-term Warrants” and five tranches of which are “long-term Warrants." The short-term Warrants expire on September 1, 2025 and the long-term Warrants expire September 1, 2027. The short-term Warrants have exercise prices of $180.10 to $216.12 and the long-term Warrants have exercise prices of $180.10 to $540.31, as adjusted pursuant to the one-for-eighteen reverse stock split effected by the Issuer on August 12, 2022. The Tranche 1 Warrant, representing the right to purchase 2,364,527 shares of Class A Common Stockat an exercise price of $180.10, became exercisable on September 1, 2022, upon completion of the integrated automobile insurance solution for Carvana Group, LLC’s online car buying platform (the "Integrated Platform"). The remaining seven tranches of warrants are subject to certain conditions to exercise, including relating to the achievement of defined milestones tied to insurance sales through the Integrated Platform.
As a result of their beneficial ownership of the Preferred Stock and the Tranche 1 Warrant, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 3,144,821 shares of Class A Common Stock 780,294 of which would be received upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, and 2,364,527 of which would be received upon the exercise of the Tranche 1 Warrant and represents, in the aggregate, approximately 26.0% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock, as calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"). The shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons represents approximately 18.2% of the total Common Stock of the Issuer on an as-converted basis.
Neither the filing of this Amendment No. 2 nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any of the Reporting Persons that such person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock referred to herein for purposes of the Act, or for any other purpose.
