Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Merger Agreement

On July 18, 2021, ECP Environmental Growth Opportunities Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ENNV”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) by and among ENNV, ENNV Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of ENNV (“Merger Sub”), and Fast Radius, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Fast Radius”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Fast Radius, with Fast Radius surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of ENNV (the “Merger” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). At the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), ENNV will be renamed “Fast Radius, Inc.” (ENNV, following the Closing, the “Combined Company”). The Transactions are expected to be consummated in the fourth quarter of 2021, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions discussed herein. Capitalized terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement.

The combined company is expected to have a post-transaction enterprise value of $995 million with an estimated equity value of $1.4 billion from the contribution of $445 million in gross cash proceeds from the Transaction, including $345 million of cash held in ENNV’s trust account (assuming no redemptions) and an additional $100 million fully committed private investment with certain accredited investors or qualified institutional buyers (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), including, among others, UPS, Palantir and our sponsor, ENNV Holdings, LLC (the “Sponsor”), also including a $25 million forward purchase commitment from certain accounts managed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. In connection with the Transactions, ENNV will issue up to 100,000,000 newly issued shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of ENNV (“ENNV Class A Common Stock”), up to 90,000,000 shares of which will be issued or subject to ENNV awards at the Closing and 10,000,000 shares of which will be issuable upon the attainment of certain performance thresholds as described in more detail below.

Conversion of Securities

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), (i) the outstanding principal together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the issued and outstanding convertible notes of Fast Radius will automatically be converted into a number of shares of common stock of Fast Radius in accordance with the terms of the applicable note purchase agreements and (ii) each issued and outstanding warrant of Fast Radius will be exercised in full on a cashless basis in accordance with its terms.  

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time:

 

i.

each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Fast Radius will be converted into the right to receive (i) a number of shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock, determined by multiplying such share by an amount equal to the Merger Consideration Exchange Ratio, with all shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock held by a holder immediately thereafter aggregated and rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) a number of Fast Radius Earn Out Shares (as defined herein) determined in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement;

 

ii.

each option to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of Fast Radius (“Fast Radius Common Stock” and each such option, a “Fast Radius Option”) that is then outstanding will be converted into an option to purchase shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock (each, an “ENNV Option”) on substantially the same terms and conditions as such Fast Radius Options, except that (i) such ENNV Option will represent the right to purchase that whole

 


 

number of shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of the number of shares of Fast Radius Common Stock subject to such Fast Radius Option multiplied by the Company Award Exchange Ratio, (ii) the exercise price per share for each such ENNV Option will be equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of such Fast Radius Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (B) the Company Award Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded up to the nearest full cent);

 

iii.

each restricted stock award relating to shares of Fast Radius Common Stock (each, a “Fast Radius Restricted Stock Award”) that is then outstanding will be converted into a restricted stock award relating to shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock (each, an “ENNV Restricted Stock Award”) on substantially the same terms and conditions as such Fast Radius Restricted Stock Awards, except that such ENNV Restricted Stock Award will represent that whole number of shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Fast Radius Common Stock subject to such Fast Radius Restricted Stock Award, multiplied by (B) the Company Award Exchange Ratio;

 

iv.

each restricted stock unit award relating to shares of Fast Radius Common Stock (each, a “Fast Radius RSU”) that would otherwise vest upon the Closing subject to continued service of the applicable holder thereof through the Closing or that is vested but not settled as of the Closing (each, a “Vested RSU”) will automatically accelerate vesting and become fully vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and will be canceled and converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive (i) an issuance of a number of shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock equal to the product of (1) the number of such Fast Radius RSUs, multiplied by (2) the Merger Consideration Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) a number of Fast Radius Earn Out Shares determined in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement; and

 

v.

each Fast Radius RSU award (other than Vested RSUs) that is then outstanding will be converted into an award of restricted stock units relating to shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock (each, an “ENNV RSU Award”) on substantially the same terms and conditions as such Fast Radius RSU awards, except that (i) such ENNV Restricted Stock Unit Award will represent a right to receive a number of shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Fast Radius Common Stock subject to such Fast Radius Restricted Stock Unit award immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Company Award Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded down to the nearest whole share.

Earn Out

During the five-year period following the date of the Closing (the “Earn Out Period”), the Combined Company may issue to eligible holders of securities of the Combined Company up to 10,000,000 additional shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock in the aggregate (which will be equitably adjusted on account of any subdivision, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification or similar equity restructuring transaction or any changes in the ENNV Class A Common Stock as a result of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, business combination or similar transaction involving the Combined Company) (the “Fast Radius Earn Out Shares”), in two equal tranches of 5,000,000 shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock, upon the satisfaction of certain price targets set forth in the Merger Agreement, which price targets will be based upon the (i) daily volume-weighted average sale price of shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock quoted on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), or the exchange on which the shares of ENNV Class A Common Stock are then traded, for any 20 trading days within any 30 consecutive trading day period within the Earnout Period or (ii) the per share consideration

 


received in connection with an Acquiror Sale. In the event of an Acquiror Sale in which the per share consideration received is less than a price target set forth in the Merger Agreement that has not previously occurred, the applicable provisions of the Merger Agreement will terminate and no Fast Radius Earn Out Shares will be issuable thereunder with respect to such price target in connection with or following completion of such Acquiror Sale.

The ENNV board of directors is permitted to change the ENNV Board Recommendation (such change, a “Modification in Recommendation”) if the board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that in response to an Intervening Event, the failure to make a Modification in Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law.
