Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Class A Common Stock for investment purposes.
On December 16, 2020, the Issuer consummated the transactions (the “business combination”) contemplated by that certain Merger Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2020, by and among the Issuer, FEAC Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of FEAC (“Merger Sub”), Skillz Inc. (“Old Skillz”), and Andrew Paradise, solely in his capacity as representative of the stockholders of Skillz Inc. (the “Merger Agreement”), whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Old Skillz, with Old Skillz surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer. Contemporaneously with the closing of the Business Combination, the Issuer was renamed “Skillz Inc.” At the effective time of the business combination, among other things, stock consideration in the form of Class A Common Stock was issued to the then-current stockholders of Old Skillz, including the shares of Class A Common Stock reported in this Statement.
A copy of the Merger Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
The Reporting Persons may further purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose or otherwise deal in shares of Class A Common Stock at times, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in market prices of such shares of Class A Common Stock, changes in the Issuer's operations, business strategy or prospects, or from sale or merger of the Issuer. To evaluate such alternatives, the Reporting Persons will continue to monitor the Issuer's operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive and strategic matters, capital structure, and prevailing market conditions, as well as alternative investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons and other investment considerations. Consistent with their investment research methods and evaluation criteria, the Reporting Persons may continue to discuss such matters with management or directors of the Issuer, other shareholders, industry analysts, regulators, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit and other investors. Such factors and discussions may materially affect, and result in, the Reporting Persons' modifying their ownership of shares of Class A Common Stock, exchanging information with the Issuer pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements, proposing changes in the Issuer's operations, governance or capitalization, or in proposing one or more of the other actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Except as set forth above, as of the date hereof, none of the Reporting Persons has any present plan or intention which would result in or relate to any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
The information set forth in Items 2, 3 and 4 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5. The responses set forth on rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages of this Statement are incorporated by reference in this Item 5. The beneficial ownership information that follows is as of December 28, 2020.
(a) Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 21,433,040 shares of Class A Common Stock, which constitutes approximately 7.3% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Act (based on 291,706,860 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of December 16, 2020, as set forth in the Closing 8-K). The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that a Reporting Person beneficially owns those shares held by any other Reporting Person. The number of shares of Class A Common Stock set forth in this Statement excludes an aggregate of 398,982 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) that may be issued pursuant to that certain Escrow Agreement (the “Earnout Escrow Agreement”), dated as of December 16, 2020, by and among the Issuer, Eagle Equity Partners II LLC, Andrew Paradise in his capacity as the representative of the stockholders of Old Skillz, and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent. Under the terms of the Earnout Escrow Agreement, the Earnout Shares will be released to the Reporting Persons if certain earnout conditions described more fully in the Merger Agreement are satisfied.
By virtue of the relationship described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Act. As a member of a group, each Reporting Person may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power with respect to, and therefore beneficially own, the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by members of the group as a whole. The filing of this Statement shall not be construed as an admission that the Reporting Persons beneficially own those securities held by another member of such group. In addition, each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any securities reported herein except to the extent such Reporting Person actually exercises voting or dispositive power with respect to such securities and except to the extent of such Reporting Person’s pecuniary interest therein.
(b) The number of shares of Class A Common Stock as to which each of the Reporting Persons has sole or shared power to vote, direct the vote, dispose or direct the disposition are as set forth in rows seven through ten of the cover pages hereof.
(c) Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons have not, and to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, without independent verification, no person named in Item 2 hereof has, effected any transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.
(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of any securities covered by this Statement.
(e) Not applicable.
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 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6. The Reporting Persons are party to the following agreements with respect to shares of Class A Common Stock:
Eighth Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement
BFLP is party to that certain Eighth Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement (the “Investors’ Rights Agreement”), dated as of September 1, 2020 and effective upon the consummation of the business combination, by and among the Issuer, Old Skillz, and the other persons set forth on the signature pages thereto (the “restricted stockholders”), pursuant to which the Issuer will be required to register for resale the securities of the Issuer held by the holders of the Class A Common Stock and/or the Issuer’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), in each case, party thereto. The restricted stockholders have certain “piggyback” registration rights with respect to registrations initiated by the Issuer. The Issuer will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any registration statements pursuant to the Investors’ Rights Agreement. The Investors’ Rights Agreement also restricts the ability of each stockholder who is a party thereto to transfer its shares of Common Stock for a period of two (2) years following the closing of the business combination, subject to certain permitted transfers. In general, 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock held by each stockholder who is a party to the Investors’ Rights Agreement (together with its affiliates on a consolidated basis) will be released from the transfer restrictions each quarter beginning on the date that is six months following the closing of the business combination.
This summary description does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Investors’ Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2 to this Statement and is incorporated by reference herein.
