Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 3, 2019, i3 Verticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), through i3 Verticals, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“i3 LLC”), and i3-Bearcat, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of i3 LLC (the “Buyer”), completed its acquisition of Northeast Texas Data, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“NET Data”) and Graves Humphries Stahl, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“GHS” and, together with NET Data, the “Public Sector Targets”), pursuant to the terms of a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated April 3, 2019, by and among i3 LLC, Buyer, NTD Holdings, Inc., a Texas corporation (“NTD Holdings”), GH Holdco, Inc., a Texas corporation (“GH Holdco”, and together with NTD Holdings, the “Sellers”), and David Graves and Tory Humphries, as owners of the Sellers. The Public Sector Targets are engaged in the business of developing, enabling, supporting, marketing, distributing and selling software products and services to small and midsize county governments and city court systems.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Public Sector Targets (the “Acquisition”) in exchange for approximately $24 million in cash, subject to certain pre- and post-closing net working capital adjustments (the “Acquisition Consideration”). In addition to the Acquisition Consideration, the Sellers are eligible to receive, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement related to the performance of the Public Sector Targets in the following 12 months, additional consideration of $1 million. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities by the parties to such agreement.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference in this Item 1.01. The Purchase Agreement has been included as an exhibit hereto solely to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to be a source of financial, business or operational information about the Company, i3 LLC, NTD Holdings, GH Holdco or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement are made only for purposes of the Purchase Agreement and are made as of specific dates; are solely for the benefit of the parties; may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Purchase Agreement, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as fact; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors or security holders. Investors and security holders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, i3 LLC, NTD Holdings, GH Holdco, the Public Sector Targets or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures.
