Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
As previously announced, on March 31, 2015, The Rubicon Project, Inc. (“Rubicon Project” or the “Company”) entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Chango Inc. (“Chango”), 2459502 Ontario Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Sub”), the Supporting Shareholders (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement), Fortis Advisors LLC, as the Securityholder Representative (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement), and certain persons delivering joinder agreements therewith. On April 20, 2015, the parties entered into an amendment agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) to amend and restate the plan of arrangement to reflect certain non-material amendments to it. The Chango shareholders adopted and approved the Arrangement Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby on April 20, 2015. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the “Court”) issued a final order approving the statutory plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) on April 22, 2015. On April 24, 2015, Sub acquired all of the equity interests of Chango by way of the Arrangement and Chango became an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Rubicon Project.
Pursuant to the Arrangement, each outstanding share of capital stock of Chango was automatically converted at the effective time of the Arrangement into the right to receive 0.3364 of a share of Rubicon Project common stock, par value $0.00001 per share. An aggregate of 4,424,529 shares of Rubicon Project common stock were issued to shareholders of Chango at the closing, of which an aggregate of 871,969 shares were placed in escrow to cover post-closing indemnification obligations of the Chango shareholders and certain employee matters. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase Chango shares was converted into an option to purchase 0.3364 of a share of Rubicon Project common stock (with the exercise price being adjusted accordingly). The value of Rubicon Project common stock used to determine the number of shares issued at closing and the exchange ratio applicable to the assumed options was $18.77 per share.
The Company also used approximately $9 million of cash to repay Chango’s outstanding indebtedness and pay Chango’s unpaid transaction expenses. In addition to the shares to be issued at closing, the Arrangement Agreement contemplates the issuance as an earnout of up to approximately $18 million of Rubicon Project common stock based upon Chango’s performance against certain agreed-upon operating objectives for the year ending December 31, 2015. The Company also plans to issue new employment-based restricted stock units to Chango employees.
The foregoing description of the completion of the acquisition of Chango pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement and the plan of arrangement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, reference to the copy of the Arrangement Agreement, including the plan of arrangement attached thereto, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2015 and is incorporated herein by reference, and the copy of the Amendment Agreement, including the amended and restated plan of arrangement attached thereto, which is filed hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.
To the extent required by Item 3.02 of Form 8-K, the information relating to the Arrangement contained or incorporated by reference into Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference. The shares of Company common stock issued in connection with the Arrangement were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration under U.S. federal securities laws provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In accordance with the Arrangement Agreement, the Court was advised of the intention to rely on the exemption under Section 3(a)(10), the Company provided adequate notice of a public hearing that was open to all persons to whom the securities were to be issued, and the Court approved the procedural and substantive fairness of the terms and conditions of the Arrangement.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 27, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing the consummation of the Arrangement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The press release is furnished and not filed, pursuant to Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K.
