EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On July 1, 2020, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 1, 2020, as amended on May 28, 2020 (as so amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Mobile Mini, Inc. (“Mobile Mini”) and Picasso Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"), Merger Sub merged with and into Mobile Mini (the “Merger”), and Mobile Mini continued as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

As a result of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Mobile Mini common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Mobile Mini Common Stock”), was converted automatically into the right to receive 2.4050 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock” ) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares (the “Merger Consideration”).

 

In connection with the Merger, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (i) each option to purchase shares of Mobile Mini Common Stock outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) was assumed by the Company and converted into an option to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock (subject to the exchange ratio as determined by the Merger Agreement); and (ii) each restricted stock award with respect to shares of Mobile Mini Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time became vested and was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of underlying shares of Mobile Mini Common Stock (subject to adjustments as determined by the Merger Agreement).

 

Immediately following the Merger, the Company changed its name from “WillScot Corporation” to “WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp.” and filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation which reclassified all outstanding shares of its Class A Common Stock and converted such shares into shares of Common Stock.

 

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed for the purpose of registering 6,488,988 shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the 2020 Incentive Plan, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of the stockholders held on June 24, 2020. The number of shares of Common Stock being registered includes, in addition to 5,000,000 new shares authorized for issuance under the 2020 Incentive Plan, 1,488,988 shares that remained available for grant under the 2017 Incentive Plan, as of July 1, 2020.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

The Company’s certificate of incorporation provides for the elimination of the personal liability of the directors of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The Company’s bylaws provide for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

 

The Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

 

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and is therefore unenforceable.

 

The Company maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided (1) to its directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, while acting in their capacity as directors and officers of the Company, and (2) to the Company with respect to payments which may be made by the Company to such officers and directors pursuant to any indemnification provision contained in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or otherwise as a matter of law.

 

On July 1, 2020, the Company entered into indemnification agreements (each an “Indemnification Agreement”) with each of its directors and executive officers, respectively. Each Indemnification Agreement provides for the maximum indemnity permitted for directors and officers under the DGCL and the Company’s charter documents, as well as additional procedural protections. Each Indemnification Agreement requires the Company to indemnify the directors and officers against liability that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers of the Company if the director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal proceeding had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The foregoing description is intended only as a summary of the provisions of the respective Indemnification Agreements and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of an Indemnification Agreement.

Item 9. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

  (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
  (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
  (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;

 

Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement; provided

 

  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act), that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
