Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 5 (“Amendment No. 5”) amends the Schedule 13D originally filed on February 21, 2020 (as amended to date, the “Schedule 13D”) by VPE Holdings, LLC (“VPE”), Vertiv JV Holdings, LLC (“JV”), PE Vertiv Holdings, LLC (“PE Vertiv”), Platinum Equity Partners III, LLC (“Partners III”), Platinum Equity Investment Holdings III, LLC (“Holdings III”), Platinum Equity InvestCo, L.P. (“InvestCo LP”), Platinum Equity Investment Holdings IC (Cayman), LLC (“Cayman Holdings”), Platinum Equity Investment Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), Platinum Equity, LLC (“Platinum”) and Mr. Tom Gores (each, a “Reporting Person” and, collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) with respect to shares of the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) of Vertiv Holdings Co (formerly known as GS Acquisition Holdings Corp, the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meaning attributed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

2023 Underwriting Offering

 

On August 9, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), VPE sold 20,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to BofA Securities, Inc. (the “Underwriter”) at a price of $34.91 per share in a registered offering (the “2023 Offering”) pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement dated as of August 7, 2023 (the “2023 Underwriting Agreement”).

 

Lock-Up Agreement

 

On August 7, 2023, pursuant to the 2023 Underwriting Agreement, the Issuer, VPE and the Underwriter entered into a Lock-Up Agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), pursuant to which VPE agreed, for a period ending at the close of business on the date that is 60 days after the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), to not (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of the Class A Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Common Stock (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”), (2) enter into any hedging, swap or other agreement or transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise, (3) take any action that shall require the Issuer to file with the SEC a registration statement relating to the Lock-Up Securities during the Restricted Period; provided that, the Issuer may make a confidential or non-public submission with the SEC of a registration statement relating to the Lock-Up Securities during the Restricted Period, so long as any such confidential or non-public submission shall not become a publicly available registration statement during the Restricted Period, or (4) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.

 

Stockholders Agreement

 

Following the closing of the 2023 Offering, VPE holds less than 5% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock and therefore no longer has the right to designate any directors for nomination to the Issuer’s board of directors pursuant to the stockholders agreement dated as of February 7, 2020, by and among the Issuer, GS Sponsor LLC, Cote SPAC 1 LLC, and VPE (the “Stockholders Agreement”). Further, because VPE no longer has the right to designate at least one director for nomination pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, the voting agreement provisions of the Stockholders Agreement are no longer of any force or effect.

 

The above descriptions of the 2023 Underwriting Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, each of which is filed as an exhibit to the Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
