On March 7, 2021, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amended and Restated Merger Agreement”) with Pluralsight Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of the Company (“Pluralsight Holdings” and, together with Pluralsight, the “Pluralsight Parties”), Lake Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Parent I”), Lake Guarantor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent II” and together with Parent I, the “Parent Entities”), Lake Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent I (“Merger Sub I”), and Lake Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent II (“Merger Sub II” and together with Merger Sub I and the Parent Entities, the “Buyer Parties”). The Parent Entities and the Merger Subs are affiliates of Vista Equity Partners Fund VII, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Vista Fund VII”). The Amended and Restated Merger Agreement amends and restates the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Original Agreement”), dated as of December 11, 2020 between the Pluralsight Parties and the Buyer Parties.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, Merger Sub I commenced a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase (i) all of the outstanding Shares, at a price per share of $22.50, net to the seller in cash, without interest (the “Class A Offer Price”), (ii) all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares”), at a price per share of $0.0001, net to the seller in cash, without interest; and (iii) all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Class C Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class C Shares”), at a price per share of $0.0001, net to the seller in cash, without interest.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, on April 6, 2021, Merger Sub I merged with and into the Company (the “Company Merger”), with Pluralsight continuing as the surviving corporation in the Company Merger, and Merger Sub II merged with and into Pluralsight Holdings (the “Holdings Merger”) and together with the Company Merger, the “Mergers”), with Pluralsight Holdings continuing as the surviving entity in the Holdings Merger.
In connection with the Mergers, the Company is terminating all offerings of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statements and deregistering the remaining securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any Shares which remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, the Registration Statements are hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.
