Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

In connection with an acquisition agreement entered into on April 28, 2015, Twitter, Inc. (the “Company”) agreed to issue up to an aggregate of approximately 12.6 million shares of its common stock to certain security holders of TellApart, Inc. (“TellApart”) as a portion of the consideration for all of the outstanding equity of TellApart. The Company estimated the aggregate number of shares based on the $42.27 per share closing price of the Company’s common stock on April 28, 2015. The final number of shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued in connection with the acquisition will be determined based upon the closing trading prices of the Company’s common stock over a period of time prior to the closing of the acquisition, and is subject to adjustment based on (i) post-closing purchase price adjustment provisions, (ii) continuing service obligations to the Company of certain security holders of TellApart, and (iii) indemnification obligations of certain security holders of TellApart after the closing of the acquisition.

The proposed issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to certain security holders of TellApart in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the acquisition agreement will be made in reliance on the private offering exemption of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or the private offering safe harbor provisions of Rule 506 of Regulation D based on the following factors: (i) the number of offerees or purchasers, as applicable, (ii) the absence of general solicitation, (iii) investment representations obtained from the security holders of TellApart, including with respect to their status as accredited investors, (iv) the provision of appropriate disclosure, and (v) the placement of restrictive legends on the certificates reflecting the securities.
