(“Tuohy Brothers”) with respect to an at-the-market offering program under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $750,000,000 (the “Shares”) through any of UBS, B. Riley, Canaccord, Craig-Hallum, TCS or Tuohy Brothers as its “sales agent” (together, the “Sales Agents”).
Under the Sales Agreement, the Company will set the parameters for the sale of Shares, including the number of Shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, limitations on the number of Shares that may be sold in any one trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. Subject to the terms of the Sales Agreement, the sales agent may sell the Shares by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including sales made through The New York Stock Exchange or any other trading market for the Common Stock.
The Company will pay the sales agent a commission equal up to 2% of the gross sales proceeds of any Shares sold through the sales agent under the Sales Agreement, and has provided each sales agent with customary indemnification and contribution rights.
The Sales Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of all Shares subject to the Sales Agreement or (ii) termination of the Sales Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein.
