Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement

On December 7, 2021, Virgin Group Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“VGAC II”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among VGAC II, Treehouse Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“VGAC II Merger Sub”), and Grove Collaborative, Inc., a Delaware public benefit corporation (“Grove”).

The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were approved by the boards of directors of each of VGAC II and Grove.

The Business Combination

The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the following transactions on the closing date: (i) VGAC II will become a Delaware public benefit corporation (the “Domestication”) and, in connection with the Domestication, (a) VGAC II’s name will be changed to “Grove Collaborative Holdings, Inc.” (“New Grove”), (b) each then-issued and outstanding Class A ordinary share of VGAC II will convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock of New Grove (the “New Grove Class A Common Stock”), (c) each then-issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share of VGAC II will convert automatically into one share of New Grove Class A Common Stock, and (d) each then-issued and outstanding common warrant of VGAC II will convert automatically into one warrant to purchase one share of New Grove Class A Common Stock; and (ii) following the Domestication, VGAC II Merger Sub will merge with and into Grove, with Grove as the surviving company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, continuing as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Grove (the “Merger”).

The Domestication, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Business Combination.”

In connection with the Business Combination, VGAC II will adopt a dual class stock structure pursuant to which (i) all stockholders of Grove will hold shares of Class B common stock of New Grove (the “New Grove Class B Common Stock”), which will have ten votes per share. The New Grove Class B Common Stock will be subject to conversion to New Grove Class A Common Stock (i) upon any transfers of New Grove Class B Common Stock (except for certain permitted transfers) or (ii) on the date that is the earliest to occur of (A) the fifth anniversary of the closing date and (B) the forty-fifth day (or, if such day is not a business day in the United States, the next such business day) after the end of the first fiscal quarter of New Grove in which the number of shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock outstanding or subject to outstanding securities convertible into or exercisable therefor, or otherwise underlying outstanding equity compensation awards, represents, in the aggregate, less than ten percent (10%) of all shares of common stock outstanding or subject to outstanding securities convertible into or exercisable therefor, or otherwise underlying outstanding equity compensation awards, in each case, measured on the last day of such fiscal quarter.

The Business Combination is expected to close in late Q1 or early Q2 2022, following the receipt of the required approval by VGAC II’s shareholders and the fulfillment of other customary closing conditions.

Merger Consideration

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, based on an implied equity value of $1.4 billion, (i) each share of Grove common stock and preferred stock (on an as-converted to common stock basis) (other than dissenting shares) will be canceled and converted into the right to receive (a) a number of shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock, as determined pursuant to an exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”) and (b) a number of restricted shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock that will vest upon the achievement of certain earnout thresholds prior to the tenth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination (such shares, the “Grove Earnout Shares”), (ii) each outstanding option to purchase Grove common stock (whether vested or unvested) will be assumed by New Grove and converted into (a) comparable options that are exercisable for shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock, with a value determined in accordance with the Exchange Ratio and (b) the right to receive a number of Grove Earnout Shares, (iii) each award of restricted stock units to acquire Grove common stock (collectively, “Grove RSUs”) will be assumed by New Grove and

converted into (a) a comparable award of restricted share units to acquire shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock and (b) the right to receive a number of Grove Earnout Shares, and (iv) each warrant to acquire shares of Grove common stock or Grove preferred stock will be assumed by New Grove and converted into (a) a comparable warrant to acquire shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock and (b) the right to receive a number of Grove Earnout Shares.

The Grove Earnout Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 14 million shares of New Grove Class B Common Stock and be subject to an earnout period of ten years (the “Earnout Period”), with such shares vesting effective (i) with respect to 50% of the Grove Earnout Shares, if the daily volume weighted average price of the shares of New Grove Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $12.50 for any 20 trading days (which may be consecutive or not consecutive) within any 30-trading-day period that occurs after the closing date and prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period, and (ii) with respect to the other 50% of the Grove Earnout Shares, if the daily volume weighted average price of the shares of New Grove Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any 20 trading days (which may be consecutive or not consecutive) within any 30-trading-day period that occurs after the closing date and prior to expiration of the Earnout Period. In addition, in the event that (x) there is a Change of Control (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (or a definitive agreement providing for a Change of Control has been entered into) after the closing of the Business Combination and prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period or (y) there is a liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar event with respect to New Grove after the closing date and prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period, the Grove Earnout Shares will automatically vest (to the extent such Grove Earnout Shares have not already vested in accordance with the Merger Agreement).

If, upon the expiration of the Earnout Period, any Grove Earnout Shares shall have not vested, then such Grove Earnout Shares shall be automatically forfeited by the holders thereof and canceled by New Grove.

Representations and Warranties; Covenants

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of each of the parties thereto that are customary for transactions of this type. VGAC II and Grove have also agreed to take all necessary action such that, effective immediately after the closing of the Business Combination, the VGAC II board of directors (the “Board”) shall consist of nine directors, of whom one individual shall be designated by VGAC II, with the remaining eight individuals designated by Grove. In addition, VGAC II has agreed to adopt an equity incentive plan in an amount not to exceed 15% of New Grove’s equity interests outstanding as of immediately following the Merger with an annual evergreen provision in an amount not to exceed 5% of New Grove’s equity interests outstanding as of the day prior to such increase, as well as an employee stock purchase plan in an amount to be determined by the Board prior to the closing of the Business Combination with an annual evergreen provision in an amount of no less than 1% of New Grove’s equity interests outstanding as of the day prior to such increase.

In addition, the obligation of Grove to consummate the Business Combination is subject to the fulfilment of other closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the aggregate cash proceeds from VGAC II’s trust account, together

Termination

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances prior to the closing of the Business Combination, including, but not limited to, (i) by mutual written consent of VGAC II and Grove, (ii) by either party if any governmental authority has enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any injunction, order, decree or ruling (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which has become final and nonappealable and has the effect of making the consummation of the Business Combination, including the Merger, illegal or otherwise preventing or prohibiting the consummation of the Business Combination, (iii) by VGAC II if there is any breach of any representation, warrant, covenant or agreement on the part of Grove set forth in the Merger Agreement such that certain conditions to closing cannot be satisfied and the breach or breaches of such representations or warranties or the failure to perform such covenant or agreement, as applicable, are not cured or cannot be cured within certain specified time periods, (iv) by Grove if there is any breach of any representation, warrant, covenant or agreement on the part of VGAC II or VGAC II Merger Sub set forth in the Merger Agreement such that certain conditions to closing cannot be satisfied and the breach or breaches of such representations or warranties or the failure to perform such covenant or agreement, as applicable, are not cured or cannot be cured within certain specified time periods, (v) subject to certain limited exceptions, by either VGAC II or Grove if the Business Combination is not consummated by July 31, 2022, and (vi) by either VGAC II or Grove if certain required approvals are not obtained by VGAC II shareholders after the conclusion of a meeting of VGAC II’s shareholders held for such purpose at which such shareholders voted on such approvals (subject to any permitted adjournment or postponement of such meeting).

If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated, none of the parties to the Merger Agreement will have any liability or any further obligation under the Merger Agreement other than customary confidentiality obligations, other than liability of any of the parties for intentional and willful breach of the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and the terms of which are incorporated by reference.

Pursuant to such earn-out provisions, the Sponsor Earnout Shares will be subject to the Earnout Period with such shares vesting effective (i) with respect to 50% of the Sponsor Earnout Shares, if the daily volume weighted average price of the shares of New Grove Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $12.50 for any 20 trading days (which may be consecutive or not consecutive) within any 30-trading-day period that occurs after the closing date and prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period, and (ii) with respect to the other 50% of the Sponsor Earnout Shares, if the daily volume weighted average price of the shares of New Grove Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any 20 trading days (which may be consecutive or not consecutive) within any 30-trading-day period that occurs after the closing date and prior to expiration of the Earnout Period.
