(the “Company”) provided notice to the holders of (i) warrants that were issued in the initial public offering of Global Partner Acquisition Corp. (“GPAC”) (the predecessor to the Company) (the “Public Warrants”) and (ii) warrants that were issued in connection with the closing of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated February 26, 2019 by and among Purple Innovation, LLC, Coliseum Capital Partners, L.P. (“CCP”), Blackwell Partners LLC – Series A (“Blackwell”), Coliseum Co-Invest Debt Fund, L.P. (“CDF” and together with CCP and Blackwell, the “Lenders”) and Delaware Trust Company, to the Lenders (the “Incremental Loan Warrants”) that, pursuant to the terms of such warrants, the Company determined to exercise its right to redeem the Public Warrants and the Incremental Loan Warrants by paying to the holders of such warrants the redemption price of $0.01 per warrant, with the redemption to take place on November 30, 2020 (the “Redemption Date”). Warrants that were issued to Global Sponsor I, which was the sponsor of Global Partner Acquisition Corp. (the predecessor to the Company), in a private placement (the “Sponsor Warrants”) were not subject to the redemption.

 

Since the Company provided the redemption notice, approximately 10,900,000 Public Warrants were exercised for approximately 3,400,000 shares of Class A common stock. In addition, all the Incremental Warrants were exercised. On November 30, 2020, the Company redeemed approximately 184,000 Public Warrants that remained outstanding on the Redemption Date, in accordance with the Public Warrant terms.

 

After the redemption, as of December 2, 2020, the Company had outstanding approximately 63,877,000 shares of Class A common stock, approximately 568,000 shares of Class B common stock, and approximately 8,500,000 Sponsor Warrants not subject to redemption. The Sponsor Warrants are held by approximately sixteen holders. Each Sponsor Warrants is exercisable for one-half of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share. The Sponsor Warrants may also be exercised on a cashless basis in accordance with the terms of the Sponsor Warrants.
