Anaplan, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Anaplan”) previously granted each of Frank Calderoni, Vikas Mehta, and Linda Lee (each, an “Executive” and together, the “Executives”) an award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) on April 8, 2022 under the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and pursuant to the Company’s Global Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Grant Notice”) and Global Restricted Stock Unit Agreement entered into by and between the Company and each Executive (collectively, the “April 2022 RSU Agreements”), as part of the Company’s most recent merit-based equity award cycle.
As described in Anaplan’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as amended and supplemented, the Executives voluntarily agreed to effect the forfeiture of the RSUs granted pursuant to the April 2022 RSU Agreements (the “Specified RSUs”) as part of a good faith effort to address certain concerns raised by Thoma Bravo regarding Anaplan’s interim equity award grants during the pendency of the anticipated merger of Alpine Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Alpine Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), with and into the Company (the “Merger”).
In connection with the forfeiture of the Specified RSUs, the Company entered into a Restricted Stock Unit Forfeiture Agreement with each of Frank Calderoni, Anaplan’s Chief Executive Officer, on June 9, 2022, Vikas Mehta, Anaplan’s Chief Financial Officer, on June 9, 2022, and Linda Lee, Anaplan’s Chief Culture Officer, on June 9, 2022 (each, a “Forfeiture Agreement” and together, the “Forfeiture Agreements”).
The Forfeiture Agreements amount to a voluntary forfeiture of $15.5 million of Specified RSUs, and the Executives agreed to their effect contingent upon the closing of the Merger.
The Specified RSUs to be forfeited are as follows:
| Specified RSUs | ||
| Frank Calderoni (Chief Executive Officer) |

Important Additional Information and Where to Find It
In connection with the Merger, the Company has filed with the SEC a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, and will file additional relevant materials with the SEC. Promptly after filing its definitive proxy statement with the SEC, the Company mailed the proxy materials to each stockholder entitled to vote at the special meeting relating to the Merger. This communication is not a substitute for the definitive proxy statement or any other document that the Company may file with the SEC or send to its stockholders in connection with the proposed transaction. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, SECURITY HOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE URGED TO READ THESE MATERIALS (INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER THAT THE COMPANY WILL FILE WITH THE SEC WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY AND THE MERGER. The definitive proxy statement and other relevant materials in connection with the Merger (when they become available), and any other documents filed by the Company with the SEC, may be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov) or at the Company’s website (https://investors.anaplan.com) or by writing to the Company’s Secretary at 50 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, California 94105.
Participants in the Solicitation
The Company and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company’s stockholders with respect to the Merger. Information about the Company’s directors and executive officers and their ownership of Company common stock is set forth in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 23, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A, filed with the SEC on May 27, 2022. Information regarding the identity of the potential participants, and their direct or indirect interests in the Merger, by security holdings or otherwise, are set forth in the definitive proxy statement and may be set forth in other materials to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Merger. To the extent the Company’s directors and executive officers or their holdings of Company securities have changed from the amounts disclosed in those filings, to the Company’s knowledge, such changes have been or will be reflected on statements of change in ownership on Form 4 on file with the SEC.
Forward-Looking Statements
All of the statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, other than historical facts, are forward-looking statements made in reliance upon the safe harbor of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without limitation, the statements made concerning the closing of the Merger. As a general matter, forward-looking statements are those focused upon anticipated events or trends, expectations, and beliefs relating to matters that are not historical in nature. Such forward-looking statements are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to the Company’s operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Among others, the following uncertainties and other factors could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: (i) the risk that the Merger may not be consummated in a timely manner, if at all; (ii) the risk that the Company’s stockholders do not approve the Merger, (iii) the risk that the Merger may not be consummated as a result of Parent’s failure to comply with its covenants and that, in certain circumstances, the Company may not be entitled to a termination fee; (iv) the risk that the definitive Merger Agreement may be terminated in circumstances that require the Company to pay a termination fee; (v) risks related to the diversion of management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations; (vi) risks regarding the failure of Parent to obtain the necessary financing to complete the Merger; (vii) the effect of the announcement of the Merger on the Company’s business relationships (including, without limitation, customers and venues), operating results and business generally; (viii) legal proceedings, judgments or settlements, including those that have been and may be instituted against the Company, the Company’s board of directors and executive officers and others, as with respect to the proposed Merger; and (ix) risks related to obtaining the requisite consents to the Merger, including, without limitation, the timing (including possible delays) and receipt of regulatory approvals from governmental entities (including any conditions, limitations or restrictions placed on these approvals) and the risk that one or more governmental entities may deny approval. Further risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those matters expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements are described in the Company’s SEC reports, including but not limited to the risks described in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 30, 2022 filed on June 2, 2022. The Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.
