    INTRODUCTION

    This Amendment No. 4 (this “Final Amendment”) to the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (as amended, the “Transaction Statement”) is being filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), jointly by the following persons (each, a “Filing Person,” and collectively, the “Filing Persons”): (1) PowerSchool Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PowerSchool” or the “Company”) and the issuer of the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) that is the subject of the Rule 13e-3 transaction; (2) Vista Equity Partners Fund VI, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“VEPF VI”); (3) Vista Equity Partners Fund VI-A, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“VEPF VI-A”); (4) VEPF VI FAF, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“VEPF FAF”); (5) Severin Topco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Severin Topco”); (6) VEP Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (7) Robert F. Smith; (8) Pinnacle Holdings I L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Pinnacle Holdings”); (9) Onex Partners IV Select LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Onex Partners IV Select”); (10) Onex US Principals LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Onex US Principals”); (11) Onex Partners IV LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Onex Partners IV”); (12) Onex Partners IV GP LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Onex Partners IV GP”); (13) Onex Partners IV PV LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Onex Partners IV PV”); (14) Onex Powerschool LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Onex Powerschool”); (15) OPH B LP; (16) Onex Partners Canadian GP Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario; (17) Onex American Holdings GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (18) Onex Private Equity Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (19) Onex Partners IV GP Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership; (20) Onex Partners IV GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (21) Onex Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario; (22) Gerald W. Schwartz; (23) Bain Capital Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (24) Bain Capital XIII General Partner, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (25) Bain Capital Fund XIII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership; (26) BCPE Polymath Topco GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (27) BCPE Polymath Topco, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“BCPE Topco”); (28) BCPE Polymath Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; (29) BCPE Polymath Intermediate, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; and (30) BCPE Polymath Buyer, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”).

    The Transaction Statement, including this Final Amendment, relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 6, 2024 (including all exhibits and documents attached thereto, and as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Parent, BCPE Polymath Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) and PowerSchool. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on October 1, 2024, Merger Sub merged with and into PowerSchool, with PowerSchool continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and as a subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Merger Sub ceased to exist as an independent entity and, therefore, is no longer a filing person.

    This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) under the Exchange Act to report the results of the Merger and to reflect certain updates as detailed below. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the information set forth in the Transaction Statement remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference into this Final Amendment. All information set forth in this Final Amendment should be read together with the information contained in or incorporated by reference into the Transaction Statement.

    While each of the Filing Persons acknowledges that the Merger is a “going private” transaction for purposes of Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act, the filing of this Final Amendment and the Transaction Statement shall not be construed as an admission by any Filing Person, or by any affiliate of a Filing Person, that, prior to the Merger, the Company was “controlled” by any of the Filing Persons and/or their respective affiliates.

    On September 4, 2024, the Company filed a definitive information statement (the “Information Statement”) under Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act relating to the Merger Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and the accompanying Amendment No. 3 to the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3. The Information Statement is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(i). A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to the Information Statement as Annex A. Terms used but not defined in this Transaction Statement have the meanings assigned to them in the Information Statement.


    The information concerning PowerSchool contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Transaction Statement and the Information Statement was supplied by PowerSchool. Similarly, all information concerning each other Filing Person contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Transaction Statement and the Information Statement was supplied by such Filing Person.

    Item 10. Source and Amounts of Funds or Other Consideration

    (a) — (b), (d) Source of funds; Conditions; Borrowed funds. Items 10(a), (b) and (d) are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

    Concurrently with the filing of this Final Amendment, the Company is filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”). Item 1.01 of the Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference.

    Item 15. Additional Information

    (c) Other material information. Item 15(c) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

    On October 1, 2024, the Company filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which the Merger became effective. As a result of the Merger, the Company became a subsidiary of Parent.

    At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of Class A Common Stock (including each share of Class A Common Stock resulting from the exchange of limited liability company units of PowerSchool Holdings LLC (“LLC Units”)), other than (i) any shares of Class A Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries (including Merger Sub), in each case as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) certain shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Rollover Shares”), which were transferred together with certain LLC Units (the “Rollover Units”) to BCPE Topco and/or its subsidiaries, immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to support and rollover agreements entered into in connection with the Merger Agreement and (iii) shares of Class A Common Stock held by holders who have not consented to the adoption of the Merger Agreement in writing and who have properly exercised appraisal rights with respect to their shares in accordance with, and who have complied with, Section 262 of, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, was automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive $22.80 in cash without interest thereon (the “Per Share Price”), after giving effect to any required withholding taxes.

    At the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, was automatically cancelled and no payment was made with respect thereto.

    Immediately prior to the Effective Time, all Rollover Shares and Rollover Units were transferred to BCPE Topco and/or its subsidiaries and, at the Effective Time, were automatically cancelled without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor. In exchange for the delivery of such Rollover Shares and Rollover Units to BCPE Topco and/or its subsidiaries, such holders of the Rollover Shares and the Rollover Units were issued certain equity interests of BCPE Topco and/or its subsidiaries. The aggregate value of the Rollover Shares and the Rollover Units cancelled and exchanged for equity interests of BCPE Topco and/or its subsidiaries at the Effective Time was approximately $1.68 billion.

    At the Effective Time, each award of restricted stock units of the Company (the “Company RSUs”) that was outstanding and vested immediately prior to the Effective Time or that vested in accordance with its terms as a result of the completion of the Merger (a “Vested Company RSU”) was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the Per Share Price and (ii) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Vested Company RSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.


    At the Effective Time, each award of Company RSUs outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that was not a Vested Company RSU (an “Unvested Company RSU”) was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the Per Share Price and (ii) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company RSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Cash Replacement Company RSU Amount”), which Cash Replacement Company RSU Amount, subject to the holder’s continued service through the applicable vesting dates, vests and becomes payable at the same time as the Unvested Company RSU for which the Cash Replacement Company RSU Amount was exchanged would have vested and been payable pursuant to its terms, and otherwise generally has the same terms and conditions as applied to the Unvested Company RSU for which it was exchanged.

    At the Effective Time, each award of market share units of the Company (“Company MSUs”) outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was automatically cancelled and converted into a restricted stock unit award with respect to the common equity in Parent, the Surviving Corporation or one of its subsidiaries or a direct or indirect parent entity of Parent (the “Replacement Company MSU Award”), with the number of shares or units covered by such Replacement Company MSU Award equal to the quotient of (i) the product of (A) the Per Share Price and (B) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Company MSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (with the performance factor based on the Per Share Price) and (ii) the fair market value of such share or unit as of the Effective Time. The Replacement Company MSU Award, subject to the holder’s continued service through the applicable vesting dates, vests and settles at the same time as the Company MSUs for which such Replacement Company MSU Award was exchanged would have vested and been settled pursuant to its terms, and otherwise generally has the same terms and conditions (including with respect to service-based vesting conditions but excluding any performance-based vesting conditions) as applied to the Company MSU for which it was exchanged.

    At the Effective Time, each award of performance share units of the Company (“Company PSUs”) outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was automatically cancelled and converted into a performance stock unit award with respect to the common equity in Parent, the Surviving Corporation or one of its subsidiaries or a direct or indirect parent entity of Parent (the “Replacement Company PSU Award”), with the number of shares or units covered by such Replacement Company PSU Award equal to the quotient of (i) the product of (A) the Per Share Price and (B) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Company PSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (assuming target level of performance) and (ii) the fair market value of such share or unit as of the Effective Time. The Replacement Company PSU Award, subject to the holder’s continued service through the applicable vesting dates and satisfaction of the applicable performance condition applicable to such Company PSUs, vests and settles at the same time as the Company PSUs for which such Replacement Company PSU Award was exchanged would have vested and been settled pursuant to its terms, and otherwise generally has the same terms and conditions (including with respect to service-based and performance-based vesting conditions) as applied to the Company PSU for which it was exchanged.

    On October 1, 2024, the Company notified the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the Merger had been completed. As a result, the NYSE suspended trading of the Class A Common Stock prior to the opening of trading on October 1, 2024. The Company requested that the NYSE file with the SEC a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on Form 25 with respect to the delisting of all shares of Class A Common Stock from the NYSE and the deregistration of such shares under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The deregistration will become effective 90 days after the filing of the Form 25 or such shorter period as may be determined by the SEC. Following the effectiveness of the Form 25 with respect to the delisting, the Company intends to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 requesting the termination of registration of the Class A Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.


    In addition, on October 1, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Merger. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K, filed concurrently with the SEC, and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit (a)(iv) hereto.
