Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 16, 2021, Fintech Acquisition Corp. V, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among eToro Group Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“eToro”), Buttonwood Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of eToro (“Merger Sub”), and the Company, which provides for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of eToro (the “Business Combination”). At the closing of the Business Combination and the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), the stockholders of the Company will receive certain of the common shares, no par value, of eToro (“eToro Common Shares”), and eToro will list as a publicly traded company on Nasdaq and will continue to conduct the social trading platform business conducted by eToro prior to the Business Combination.

The Merger Agreement

The Business Combination contemplates an implied enterprise valuation of eToro of approximately $9.6 billion at the time of the signing of the Merger Agreement. Except with respect to the Price Adjustment Rights (as defined below), no purchase price adjustments will be made in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Assuming no shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Class A Stock”) are redeemed by the Company’s public stockholders as described below under “Redemption Offer,” immediately following the Effective Time, the Company’s public stockholders will own approximately 2.4% of the eToro Common Shares; the Company’s sponsors—FinTech Investor Holdings V, LLC and FinTech Masala Advisors V, LLC (together, “Sponsor”)—will own approximately 0.8% of the eToro Common Shares; the shareholders of eToro as of immediately prior to the Business Combination (the “Legacy eToro Shareholders”) will own approximately 91% of the eToro Common Shares; and the PIPE Investors (as defined below) will own approximately 6.2% of the eToro Common Shares. The pro forma ownership percentages described in the foregoing sentence exclude the Company’s public warrants and the eToro Common Shares underlying the Price Adjustment Rights. As further described under “Sponsor Surrender and Restriction Agreement” and “Lock-Up Agreement” below, all of the eToro Common Shares to be issued to Sponsor in the Business Combination will be subject to contractual restrictions on transfer and only released upon the occurrence of certain time-based, stock-price performance or other events.

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to the receipt of applicable approvals of eToro shareholders, (i) each outstanding preferred share of eToro (“eToro Preferred Shares”) will be converted into eToro Common Shares in accordance with, and based on the applicable conversion ratio set forth in, the memorandum and articles of association of eToro (the “Conversion”), (ii) immediately following the Conversion, all outstanding eToro Common Shares, and all eToro Common Shares underlying vested options to acquire eToro Common Shares (“Vested Options”), will be reclassified into (together, the “Reclassification”) (x) eToro Common Shares and (y) certain rights to receive, without any further action required by the holders of such rights, in the aggregate, up to an additional 40,000,000 eToro Common Shares, 50% of which will automatically vest and be exercised if, at any time on or prior to the last day of the 30th month following the Closing Date (as defined below), the stock price of the eToro Common Shares is greater than or equal to $15.00 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period, and 50% which will automatically vest and be exercised if, at any time on or prior to the last day of the 60th month following the Closing Date, the stock price of the eToro Common Shares is greater than or equal to $17.50 over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period, subject in either case to the earlier automatic vesting and exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, or other similar transaction that results in all of eToro’s shareholders having the right to exchange their eToro Common Shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Price Adjustment Rights”), and (iii) immediately following the Reclassification, eToro will effect a stock split of each then-outstanding eToro Common Share and each eToro Common Share underlying any outstanding options to acquire eToro Common Shares, whether vested or unvested (“eToro Options”), into such number of eToro Common Shares determined by multiplying such eToro Common Shares by a “Split Factor” that is equal to the result of (A) $9,301,000,000 divided by (B) the total number of issued and outstanding eToro Common Shares, plus the total number of eToro Common Shares underlying any outstanding eToro options to acquire eToro Common Shares, with the result of such calculation divided by (C) $10.00, all as further described in and as calculated in accordance with the Merger Agreement (the “Stock Split” and, together with the Conversion and the Reclassification, the “Capital Restructuring”). As part of the Business Combination and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, eToro may in its discretion elect to commence a self-tender offer (“Self-Tender Offer”) to purchase up to $300,000,000 in eToro Common Shares from the Legacy eToro Shareholders, such purchase in such Self-Tender Offer to be consummated, if elected, immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination.

At the Effective Time, (i) each share of Company Class A Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to any redemptions by the Company’s public stockholders), by virtue of the Merger and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, will be converted into and will for all purposes represent only the right to receive one eToro Common Share (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”), (ii) after giving effect to the Sponsor Forfeiture (as defined below), each share of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Company Class B Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agreement, will be converted into and will for all purposes represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration (the aggregate number of eToro Common Shares into which shares of Company Class A Stock and Company Class B Stock are converted into pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the “Merger Consideration”) and (iii) all of the shares of Company Class A Stock and Company Class B Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration will no longer be outstanding and will cease to exist, and each holder of any shares of Company Class A Stock or Company Class B Stock will thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration into which such shares of Company Class A Stock and Company Class B Stock have been converted. The Merger Consideration does not include any, or any rights to receive any consideration in respect of, the Price Adjustment Rights.

After giving effect to the Sponsor Forfeiture, the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase one share of Company Class A Stock shall be converted into the right to receive an equal number of warrants to purchase one eToro Common Share (“eToro Warrants”).

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

Each of eToro, the Company and Merger Sub has made representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement that are customary for transactions of this nature. The representations and warranties of the Company, Merger Sub and eToro will not survive the closing of the Business Combination.

The number of eToro Common Shares to be reserved for issuance under the Plan will be equal to (i) 3% of the total outstanding number of eToro Common Share as of immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, calculated on a fully-diluted basis including all equity awards, warrants and other convertible securities outstanding as of such time, and the aggregate maximum number of eToro Common Shares underlying outstanding Price Adjustment Rights, plus (ii) an annual increase equal to the lesser of 3% of the aggregate number of eToro Common Shares outstanding and the number of eToro Common Shares determined for such purpose by the board of directors of eToro.

The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating such agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement are also modified in part by the underlying disclosure schedules which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to stockholders and were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. The Company does not believe that these schedules contain information that is material to an investment decision. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties thereto or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.

Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of the words such as “ estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “may,” “target,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” or similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements as to the expected timing, completion and effects of the Business Combination, are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and on the current expectations of eToro’s and the Company’s management, are not predictions of actual performance, and are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all; the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination; the inability to complete the PIPE Investment; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; the amount of redemption requests made by the Company’s public stockholders; the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Business Combination on eToro’s business; risks that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of eToro; potential difficulties in retaining eToro customers and employees; eToro’s estimates of its financial performance; changes in general economic or political conditions; changes in the markets in which the eToro competes; slowdowns in securities trading or shifting demand for security trading product; the impact of natural disasters or health epidemics, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; legislative or regulatory changes; the evolving digital asset market, including the regulation thereof; competition; conditions related to eToro’s operations in Israel; risks related to data security and privacy; changes to accounting principles and guidelines; potential litigation relating to the proposed business combination; the ability to maintain the listing of eToro’s securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market; the price of eToro’s securities may be volatile; the ability to implement business plans, and other expectations after the completion of the Business Combination; and unexpected costs or expenses. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-249646), eToro’s registration statement on Form F-4 (when available) and other documents should be carefully considered, if and when filed by eToro or the Company from time to time with SEC. If any of these risks materialize or these assumptions prove incorrect, actual events and results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither eToro nor the Company presently know or that eToro and the Company currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual events and results to differ. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect eToro’s and the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. eToro and the Company anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause eToro’s and the Company’s assessments to change. While eToro and the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, eToro and the Company specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, unless required by applicable law.

Any financial information or projections in this communication are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond eToro’s and the Company’s control. The inclusion of financial information or projections in this communication should not be regarded as an indication that eToro or the Company, or their respective representatives and advisors, considered or consider the information or projections to be a reliable prediction of future events.

This communication is not intended to be all-inclusive or to contain all the information that a person may desire in considering an investment in the Company and is not intended to form the basis of an investment decision in the Company. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the Company and eToro, the Business Combination or other matters and attributable to the Company and eToro or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.
