Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.


On June 10, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), Nebula Acquisition Corporation, the Issuer’s predecessor company (“Nebula”), consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of January 5, 2020 (as amended from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”)) with Open Lending, LLC., a Texas limited liability company, BRP Hold 11, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Blocker”), the Blocker’s sole stockholder (the “Blocker Holder”), Nebula Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ParentCo”), NBLA Merger Sub LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Merger Sub LLC”), NBLA Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub Corp”), and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, as the Securityholder Representative. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, on the Closing Date, each of the following transactions occurred in the following order: (i) Merger Sub Corp merged with and into Nebula (the “First Merger”), with Nebula surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of ParentCo (the “NAC Surviving Company”); (ii) immediately following the First Merger and prior to the Blocker Contribution (as defined below), Blocker redeemed a specified number of shares of Blocker common stock in exchange for cash (the “Blocker Redemption”); (iii) immediately following the Blocker Redemption, ParentCo acquired, and the Blocker Holder contributed to ParentCo the remaining shares of Blocker common stock after giving effect to the Blocker Redemption (the “Blocker Contribution”) such that, following the Blocker Contribution, Blocker is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ParentCo; (iv) immediately following the Blocker Contribution, Merger Sub LLC merged with and into Open Lending LLC (the “Second Merger”), with Open Lending LLC surviving the Second Merger as a direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ParentCo (the “Surviving Company”); (v) immediately following the Second Merger, Blocker acquired, and ParentCo contributed to Blocker, all common units of the Surviving Company directly held by ParentCo after the Second Merger such that the Surviving Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blocker; and (vi) the NAC Surviving Company acquired, and ParentCo contributed to the NAC Surviving Company, the remaining shares of Blocker common stock after giving effect to the Blocker Redemption and the Blocker Contribution (the “ParentCo Blocker Contribution”) such that, following the ParentCo Blocker Contribution, Blocker was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the NAC Surviving Company.

Immediately upon the completion of the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Transactions”, and such completion, the “Closing”), Open Lending LLC became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of ParentCo. In connection with the Transactions, ParentCo changed its name to Open Lending Corporation.

Pursuant to the terms of the Transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the 6,775,000 shares of Class B common stock of ParentCo held by Nebula Holdings prior to the Business Combination were ultimately exchanged for: (a) 6,775,000 shares of Common Stock, and (b) the right to receive 1,250,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, if the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Issuer’s Common Stock exceeded certain price thresholds as described below (the “Earnout Shares”). Nebula Holdings would receive Earnout Shares as follows: (i) 625,000 shares of Common Stock, if prior to or as of the second anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP was greater than or equal to $12.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period; and (ii) 625,000 shares, if prior to or as of the 30-month anniversary of the Closing, the VWAP was greater than or equal to $14.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period. On July 21, 2020, Nebula Holdings acquired all 1,250,000 Earnout Shares, which had been earned.

Additionally, in connection with the Business Combination, True Wind purchased 8,500,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $10.00 per share. The source of funds required for the purchase of such shares were from general funds available to True Wind, including capital contributions from equityholders of Nebula Holdings or its affiliates and for cash management purposes in advance of an anticipated capital call, borrowings by True Wind Capital under its existing revolving credit facility.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of the Transaction.

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Item 3 and Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.

Each of the Reporting Persons acquired the securities reported herein for investment purposes. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), dated as of June 10, 2020, by and among the Issuer and certain affiliates of the Reporting Persons, Nebula Holdings has the right to designate two board representatives subject to certain conditions. Mr. Adam Clammer, Founding Partner of True Wind, and Brandon Van Buren, a Partner at True Wind, were appointed to serve as members of the board of directors of the Issuer.


Consistent with its investment purpose and subject to the agreements described in Item 6 below, at any time and from time to time may acquire additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for or into shares of Common Stock or dispose of any or all of the shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, distributing some or all of such shares of Common Stock to such Reporting Person’s members, partners, stockholders or beneficiaries, as applicable, transferring shares of Common Stock to affiliated transferees, or the entry into a transaction in connection with a permitted financing, in each case in accordance with the agreements described in Item 6 below), depending upon an ongoing evaluation of its investment in the Common Stock, the price and availability of the Issuer’s securities, the Issuer’s business and the Issuer’s prospects, applicable legal restrictions, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities, tax considerations, liquidity requirements of such Reporting Person and/or other investment considerations. Subject to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement (described in Item 6 below), the Reporting Persons may request or demand a registration statement be filed by the Issuer and be made available and effective so that they may, if they later decide, deliver to the Issuer take-down notices in connection therewith or otherwise to sell shares of Common Stock utilizing such registration statement.

Each Reporting Person, solely in its capacity as a shareholder or other security holder of the Issuer, may engage in communications with one or more other shareholders or other securityholders of the Issuer, one or more officers of the Issuer and/or one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer and/or one or more representatives of the Issuer regarding the Issuer, including but not limited to its operations. Each of the Reporting Persons, in its capacity as a shareholder or other security holder of the Issuer, may discuss ideas that, if effected, may relate to or result in any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D.

Other than as described above, none of the Reporting Persons currently has any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D, although the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position, change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. As a result of these activities, one or more of the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management, or capital structure of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value. Such suggestions or positions may include one or more plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.

 

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 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 5.

(a) – (b)

Nebula Holdings holds 16,525,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock as of the date hereof.

The percentages of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D are based on 128,198,185 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of November 9, 2020, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2020.

Investor Rights Agreement

On June 10, 2020, the Issuer entered into the Investor Rights Agreement with certain affiliates of the Reporting Persons.

Board Designations

Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, Nebula Holdings has the right to designate two board representatives for a period of five years following the Closing, or such shorter period if it reduces its ownership in the Issuer below certain thresholds. Nebula Holdings has the right to designate (i) one individual to serve as a Class I director of the Issuer; and (ii) one individual to serve as a Class II director of the Issuer; provided, however, that if any time during such five-year period, Nebula Holdings owns less than 8,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock but more than 4,000,000 shares of Issuer’s Common Stock (in each case, as adjusted for any share split, share dividend or other share recapitalization, share exchange or other event), then Nebula Holdings will have the right to designate only one individual to serve as a Class I director of the Issuer, and if at any time during such five-year period Nebula Holdings owns less than 4,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock (as adjusted for any share split, share dividend or other share recapitalization, share exchange or other event), the rights of Nebula Holdings to designate an individual to serve on the Issuer’s Board, as the case may be, shall terminate. Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, the Issuer appointed two designees of True Wind, Adam H. Clammer and Brandon Van Buren, to the Board.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, the Issuer is obligated to file a registration statement to register the resale of certain securities of the Issuer held by True Wind. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement and subject to certain requirements and customary conditions, including with regard to the number of demand rights that may be exercised, True Wind may demand at any time or from time to time, that the Issuer file a registration statement on Form S-1, or any similar long-form registration statement, or if available, on Form S-3 to register the shares of common stock of the Issuer held by True Wind. The Investor Rights Agreement also provides Nebula Holdings with “piggy-back” registration rights, subject to certain requirements and customary conditions.

Lock-up Provision

The Investor Rights Agreement further provides for the Issuer’s Common Stock held by the Holders (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) to be locked-up for 180 days after the Closing.

The foregoing description of the Investor Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Investor Rights Agreement which is filed as Exhibits B to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein.
