Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or other Consideration.

The securities reported herein as beneficially owned by the Blackstone Funds were acquired in connection the business combination transaction (the “Business Combination”) contemplated by the Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated as of April 29, 2021, by and among the Issuer, Foley Trasimene Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation n/k/a Alight Group, Inc. (“FTAC”), Tempo Holding Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company n/k/a Alight Holding Company, LLC (“Tempo”), Acrobat SPAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“FTAC Merger Sub”), Acrobat Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tempo Merger Sub”), Acrobat Blocker 1 Corp., Acrobat Blocker 2 Corp., Acrobat Blocker 3 Corp. and Acrobat Blocker 4 Corp., each of which is a Delaware corporation (the “Blocker Merger Subs”), Tempo Blocker I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tempo Blocker 1”), Tempo Blocker II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tempo Blocker 2”), Blackstone Tempo Feeder Fund VII, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Tempo Blocker 3”), New Mountain Partners IV Special (AIV-E2), L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Tempo Blocker 4” and, together with Tempo Blocker 1, Tempo Blocker 2, Tempo Blocker 3 and Tempo Blocker 4, the “Tempo Blockers”) and New Mountain Partners IV Special (AIV-E), L.P., a Delaware limited partnership.

On July 2, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, among other things, (i) FTAC Merger Sub merged with and into FTAC, with FTAC being the surviving corporation in the merger and becoming a subsidiary of Alight (the “FTAC Merger”) and being renamed Alight Group, Inc. (in such capacity, the “FTAC Surviving Corporation”), (ii) Tempo Merger Sub merged with and into Tempo, with Tempo being the


CUSIP No. 01626W101    13D    Page 23 of 43

 

surviving company in the merger (the “Tempo Merger”), becoming a subsidiary of Alight and being renamed Alight Holding Company, LLC (in such capacity, “Alight Holdings”) and (iii) each of the Blocker Merger Subs merged with and into the correspondingly numbered Tempo Blocker, with the applicable Tempo Blocker being the surviving entity in such mergers (in such capacity, the “Alight Blockers”). As a result of the Business Combination, and by virtue of such series of mergers and related transactions, the combined company is now organized in an “Up-C” structure, in which substantially all of the assets and business of Alight are held by Alight Holdings, of which Alight is the managing member pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Alight Holdings (the “Alight Holdings Operating Agreement”) that went into effect upon the completion of the Business Combination.

As a result of these transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the Blackstone Funds received the types of shares of common stock of the Issuer and units of Alight Holdings described below.

Common stock of the Issuer

 

   

Shares of Class A Common Stock represent economic interests in the Issuer and except as provided in the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) or as required by applicable law, holders of Class A common stock will be entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by the Issuer’s stockholders generally.

 

   

Shares of the Issuer’s Class V common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class V Common Stock”), do not represent economic interests in the issuer. Except as provided in the Charter or as required by applicable law, holders of Class V Common Stock will be entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by the Issuer’s stockholders generally. Upon exchange of Class A Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class A Units”), an equal number of shares of Class V Common Stock will be cancelled for no consideration.

 

   

Shares of the Issuer’s Class B-1 common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class B-1 Common Stock”), do not represent economic interests in the issuer, except for participation together with Class A Common Stock in any dividends or distributions, which amounts will accrue and only become payable upon the occurrence of certain Class B vesting events. Holders of Class B-1 Common Stock are not entitled to any voting rights with respect to such shares, except as required by applicable law. Class B-1 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (subject to adjustment) upon the occurrence of certain Class B-1 vesting events.

 

   

Shares of the Issuer’s Class B-2 common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class B-2 Common Stock”), do not represent economic interests in the issuer, except for participation together with Class A Common Stock in any dividends or distributions, which amounts will accrue and only become payable upon the occurrence of certain Class B vesting events. Holders of Class B-2 Common Stock are not entitled to any voting rights with respect to such shares, except as required by applicable law. Class B-2 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (subject to adjustment) upon the occurrence of certain Class B-2 vesting events.

 

   

Shares of the Issuer’s Class Z-A common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class Z-A Common Stock”), will, with respect to each holder’s applicable portion thereof (as determined pursuant to the Charter), (i) vest and be converted into an equivalent portion of Class A Common Stock in the event the corollary unvested shares of Class A Common Stock held by the Issuer’s management are forfeited pursuant to an applicable award agreement or (ii) be forfeited for no consideration in the event that such corollary shares of Class A Common Stock vest pursuant to the terms of an applicable award agreement.

 

   

Shares of the Issuer’s Class Z-B-1 common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class Z-B-1 Common Stock”), will, with respect to each holder’s applicable portion thereof (as determined pursuant to the Charter) (i) vest and be converted into an equivalent portion of Class B-1 Common Stock in the event the corollary unvested shares of Class B-1 Common Stock held by the Issuer’s management are forfeited pursuant to an applicable award agreement or (ii) be forfeited for no consideration in the event that such corollary shares of Class B-1 Common Stock vest pursuant to the terms of an applicable award agreement.

 

   

Shares of the Issuer’s Class Z-B-2 common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class Z-B-2 Common Stock”), will, with respect to each holder’s applicable portion thereof (as determined pursuant to the Charter) (i) vest and be converted into an equivalent portion of Class B-2 Common Stock in the event the corollary unvested shares of Class B-2 Common Stock held by the Issuer’s management are forfeited pursuant to an applicable award agreement or (ii) be forfeited for no consideration in the event that such corollary shares of Class B-2 Common Stock vest pursuant to the terms of an applicable award agreement.


CUSIP No. 01626W101    13D    Page 24 of 43

 

Units of Alight Holdings

 

   

Class A Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class A Units”) will have no voting rights but are entitled to share in the profits and losses of Alight Holdings. Class A Units held by the reporting persons can be exchanged, up to once per calendar quarter (and in the case of the Blackstone entities described herein, twice per calendar quarter in the aggregate), for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer will be permitted, at its sole discretion, in lieu of delivering shares of the issuer’s Class A Common Stock for any Class A Units surrendered for exchange, to pay an amount in cash per Class A Unit equal to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Class A Common Stock ending on the day such measurement is made.

 

   

Class B Units will not be entitled to share in any profits or losses of Alight Holdings and will have no voting rights or rights to distributions. Class B Units will vest and automatically convert into an equal number of Class A Units as follows: (i) the Class B-1 Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class B-1 Units”) will vest upon the occurrence of a Class B-1 vesting event and (ii) the Class B-2 Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class B-2 Units”) will vest upon the occurrence of a Class B-2 vesting event. Upon the conversion of a Class B Unit, the holder of such Class B Unit will be entitled to receive a payment (a “Dividend Catch-Up Payment”) equal to the aggregate amount of distributions paid per Class A Unit (excluding tax distributions) from July 2, 2021 and ending on the day prior to the date on which such Class B Unit converts into a Class A Unit. If any of the Class B Units do not vest on or before July 2, 2028, such units will be automatically forfeited and cancelled for no consideration, and will not be entitled to receive any Dividend Catch-Up Payments.

 

   

Class Z Units will initially be unvested and will not be entitled to share in any profits or losses of Alight Holdings and will not have any voting rights or rights to distributions. In the event that any Class A Common Stock or Class B-1 Common Stock or Class B-2 Common Stock is forfeited by management under the terms of the applicable award agreement, an equivalent portion of the unvested shares of Class Z-A Common Stock and Class Z-A Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class Z-A Units”), in the aggregate, or Class Z-B-1 Common Stock or Class Z-B-2 Common Stock and Class Z-B-1 Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class Z-A Units”) or Class Z-B-2 Units of Alight Holdings (the “Class Z-A Units”), in the aggregate, will vest, with such vested portion being allocated among the holders of Class Z common stock and Class Z Units based on the allocation principles under the Business Combination Agreement. Only if and when an applicable vesting event has occurred with respect to a whole Class Z-A Unit or Class Z-B Unit, the unit will automatically convert into a Class A Unit or Class B Unit, as applicable, at which time such units will be entitled to all of the benefits of those Class A Units or Class B Units. In addition, (x) each Class Z-A Unit that converts into a Class A Unit will entitle the holder to receive the aggregate amount of any distributions declared on the Class A Units since the closing date (a “Distribution Catch-Up Payment”) and (y) if a Class B vesting event occurs resulting in the conversion of any unvested Class B consideration into unvested Class A consideration because such consideration remains unvested under the terms of a management award agreement, such management holder will not be entitled to a Distribution Catch-Up Payment upon the conversion event and, if and when such unvested Class A consideration is forfeited (triggering the vesting and conversion of the corresponding Class Z consideration), the Distribution Catch-Up Payment will be paid to the converting holders of Class Z Units.

The number of shares of common stock of the Issuer and units of Alight Holdings received by each of the Blackstone Funds is set forth in the table below.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on an ongoing basis and, in the course of their review, may take actions (including through their affiliates) with respect to their investment or the Issuer, including communicating with the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”), members of management or other security-holders of the Issuer, or other third parties from time to time, taking steps to implement a course of action, including, without limitation, engaging advisors, including legal, financial, regulatory, technical and/or industry advisors, to assist in any review, and evaluating strategic alternatives as they may become available. Such discussions and other actions may relate to, subject to the terms and conditions of the documents described herein to which the Reporting Persons are a party, various alternative courses of action, including, without limitation, those related to an extraordinary corporate transaction (including, but not limited to a merger, reorganization or liquidation) involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; business combinations involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; material asset purchases; the formation of joint ventures with the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or the entry into other material projects; changes in the present business, operations, strategy, future plans or prospects of the Issuer, financial or governance matters; changes to the Board (including board composition) or management of the Issuer; acting as a participant in debt financings of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, dividend policy, business or corporate structure or governance documents of the Issuer; de-listing or de-registration of the Issuer’s securities, or any action similar to those enumerated above.

Alight Holdings Operating Agreement

On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and in connection with the Tempo Merger, the existing amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Tempo was amended and restated in its entirety to become the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Alight Holding Company, LLC (the “Alight Holdings Operating Agreement”). Pursuant to the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement, the limited liability company interests of Alight Holdings (the “Alight Holdings Units”) were recapitalized to generally mirror the shares of capital stock of Alight.

Proportionality of Interests

The Alight Holdings Operating Agreement contains provisions which require that a one-to-one ratio is maintained between each class of Alight Holdings Units held by Alight and its subsidiaries (including the FTAC Surviving Corporation and the Alight Blockers, but excluding subsidiaries of Alight Holdings) and the number of outstanding shares of the corresponding class of Alight common stock, subject to certain exceptions (including in respect of management equity in the form of options, rights or other securities which have not been converted into or exercised for Alight common stock). In addition, the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement permits Alight, in its capacity as the managing member of Alight Holdings, to take actions to maintain such ratio, including undertaking stock splits, combinations, recapitalizations and exercises of the exchange rights of holders of Alight Holdings Units. Alight, as the managing member of Alight Holdings, has the authority to create new equity interests in Alight Holdings and establish the rights and privileges of such interests.

Management

Alight was appointed and admitted as the managing member of Alight Holdings upon the effective time of the Tempo Merger (the “Tempo Effective Time”). Alight, as the managing member of Alight Holdings, has the sole authority to manage Alight Holdings in accordance with the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement and applicable law. No other member of Alight Holdings has the right to participate in or have any control over the business of Alight Holdings, and except for certain limited consent rights set forth in the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement, no member other than Alight (in its capacity as the managing member) has any right to vote on any matter involving Alight Holdings. The managing member solely manages the business, property and affairs of Alight Holdings, and the managing member cannot be removed or replaced except by the incumbent managing member.


CUSIP No. 01626W101    13D    Page 29 of 43

 

Tax Distributions

Holders of Class Z Units will only be entitled to receive certain payments due upon a Class Z-A vesting event, a Class Z-B-l vesting event or a Class Z-B-2 vesting event, when and if payable thereunder. The Alight Holdings Operating Agreement also provides for pro rata quarterly tax distributions with respect to Class A Units, based upon an agreed-upon formula that, in general, calculates the amount of pro rata tax distributions that would be necessary to enable the holder allocated the highest proportionate amount of taxable income of Alight Holdings to pay its income taxes in respect of such allocated income. The formula is subject to certain customary assumptions and adjustments, including, among other things, using an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined United States federal, state and local income tax rate prescribed for an individual (or, if greater, a corporation) resident in New York, New York at the time of such distribution, disregarding certain unitholder-specific tax basis adjustments, and assuming that all available foreign tax credits and research and development credits will be utilized. Tax distributions may also be paid to holders of Class C Units, except that they shall be paid only once annually and shall generally be limited to the taxable income allocated to such holders multiplied by such assumed tax rate. Payments of tax distributions are subject to there being available cash, and will be treated as an advance against, and will reduce and offset, other distributions or payments made with respect to the applicable Units.

Liquidation

Upon the liquidation or winding up of Alight Holdings, all net proceeds thereof (after satisfying any debts and liabilities of Alight Holdings as well as any tax distribution payments or Dividend Catch-Up Payments or other payments due to certain holders of Alight Holdings Units pursuant to the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement) will be distributed 100% on a pro rata basis solely among the Class A Units (other than any unvested Class A Units). For purposes of any such liquidating distribution, the Class A Units will include any Class A Units issuable in respect of any Class B Units or Class Z Units which have automatically converted into Class A Units upon a Class B vesting event or Class Z-A vesting event, as applicable, and Class C Units.

Transfer Restrictions

The Alight Holdings Operating Agreement contains restrictions on transfers of Alight Holdings Units and will require the prior consent of the managing member for such transfers, except, in each case, for (i) certain transfers to permitted transferees under certain conditions and (ii) transfers by a holder of Class C Units as permitted pursuant to the the warrant agreement in effect between Alight and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

Restrictions on Class A Exchanges

The Alight Board is permitted to limit the rights of holders of Class A Units to exchange their Class A Units under the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement if Alight determines in good faith that such restrictions are necessary so that Alight Holdings will not be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” under applicable tax laws and regulations.

Expenses

Alight Holdings will reimburse all of Alight’s expenses in connection with its ownership and management of Alight Holdings and its business (other than certain expenses, such as income taxes and payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined below)).

Tax Receivable Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the completion of the Business Combination, Alight entered into a tax receivable agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”), with FTAC, Tempo and certain of the former direct and indirect equityholders of Tempo, including the former equityholders of the Tempo Blockers (such equityholders, together, the “TRA Parties”) and Blackstone Capital Partners VII NQ L.P., as the representative of the TRA Parties (the “TRA Party Representative”).


CUSIP No. 01626W101    13D    Page 30 of 43

 

The Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by Alight to such TRA Parties of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Alight is deemed to realize (calculated using certain assumptions) as a result of (i) Alight’s direct and indirect allocable share of existing tax basis acquired in the Business Combination, (ii) increases in Alight’s allocable share of existing tax basis and tax basis adjustments that will increase the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Alight Holdings as a result of the Business Combination and as a result of sales or exchanges of Alight Holdings Units for shares of Alight Class A common stock after the Business Combination and (iii) Alight’s utilization of certain tax attributes of the Tempo Blockers (including the Tempo Blockers allocable share of existing tax basis), and of certain other tax benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. These increases in existing tax basis and tax basis adjustments generated over time may increase (for tax purposes) depreciation and amortization deductions and, therefore, may reduce the amount of tax that Alight would otherwise be required to pay in the future, although the IRS may challenge all or part of the validity of that tax basis, and a court could sustain such a challenge. Actual tax benefits realized by Alight may differ from tax benefits calculated under the Tax Receivable Agreement as a result of the use of certain assumptions in the Tax Receivable Agreement, including the use of an assumed weighted-average state and local income tax rate to calculate tax benefits. The payment obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement is an obligation of Alight and not of Alight Holdings. While the amount of existing tax basis, the anticipated tax basis adjustments and the actual amount and utilization of tax attributes, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of exchanges of Alight Holdings Units for shares of Class A Common Stock, the applicable tax rate, the price of shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of exchanges, the extent to which such exchanges are taxable and the amount and timing of Alight’s income, Alight expects that as a result of the size of the transfers and increases in the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Alight Holdings and Alight’s possible utilization of tax attributes, including existing tax basis acquired at the time of the Business Combination, the payments that Alight may make under the Tax Receivable Agreement may be substantial. The payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement are not conditioned on the exchanging holders of Alight Holdings Units or other TRA Parties continuing to hold ownership interests in Alight Holdings or Alight. To the extent payments are due to the TRA Parties under the Tax Receivable Agreement, the payments are generally required to be made within 10 business days after the tax benefit schedule (which sets forth Alight’s realized tax benefits covered by the Tax Receivable Agreement for the relevant taxable year) is finalized. Alight is required to deliver such a tax benefit schedule to the TRA Parties’ representative, for its review, within 90 calendar days after the due date (including extensions) of Alight’s federal corporate income tax return for the relevant taxable year.

Investor Rights Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Alight entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) with Trasimene Capital FT, LP and Bilcar FT, LP (together, the “Sponsors”), Cannae Holdings, LLC (“Cannae”) and THL FTAC LLC (collectively with the Sponsors and Cannae, and together with their affiliated transferees, the “Sponsor Investors”), each of the funds and investment vehicles affiliated with The Blackstone Group Inc. that holds equity interests in Alight or Alight Holdings following the completion of the Business Combination (collectively and together with their affiliated transferees, the “Blackstone Investors”). New Mountain Partners IV (AIV-E) L.P. and New Mountain Partners IV (AIV-E2) L.P. (collectively, the “New Mountain Investors”). Jasmine Ventures Pte. Ltd. and Platinum Falcon B 2018 RSC Limited (collectively with the Blackstone Investors and the New Mountain Investors, and together with each of their respective affiliated transferees, the “Existing Investors”).

Designation Rights

Following the Closing Date, for so long as the Sponsor Investors beneficially own at least 50% of the aggregate outstanding number of shares of capital stock of Alight entitled to vote generally in the election of directors to the Alight Board (“Voting Securities”) held by the Sponsor Investors on the Closing Date, (i) the Sponsor Investors (through the applicable Sponsor designator under the Investor Rights Agreement) will have the right to designate three directors and Cannae (or, if Cannae is no longer party to the Investor Rights Agreement, the applicable designator for the Sponsor Investors at such time) will have the right, jointly with the Blackstone Investors, to designate one director. If the Sponsor Investors hold less than 50% of the Voting Securities held by the Sponsor Investors on the Closing Date, they will have the right to designate (1) if they collectively beneficially own at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities, three directors, (2) if they collectively beneficially own at least 6.25% (but less than 7.5%) of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities, two directors; and (3) if the Sponsor Investors collectively beneficially own at least 2.5% (but less than 6.25%) of the aggregate outstanding


CUSIP No. 01626W101    13D    Page 31 of 43

 

Voting Securities, one director. In addition, Cannae (or, if Cannae is no longer party to the Investor Rights Agreement, the applicable designator for the Sponsor Investors at such time) will have the right, jointly with the Blackstone Investors, to designate one director, and to consent to any individual nominated for election to the Alight Board seat initially occupied by the chief executive officer of Alight, for so long as the Sponsor Investors collectively beneficially own at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities.

Additionally, following the Closing Date, for so long as the Blackstone Investors beneficially own at least 50% of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities held by the Blackstone Investors on the Closing Date, the Blackstone Investors will have the right to designate three directors and the right to jointly with Cannae designate one director. If the Blackstone Investors collectively beneficially own less than 50% of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities held by the Blackstone Investors on the Closing Date, the Blackstone Investors will have the right to designate (1) if the Blackstone Investors beneficially own at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities, three directors, (2) if the Blackstone Investors beneficially own at least 6.25% (but less than 7.5%) of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities, then two directors and (3) if the Blackstone Investors beneficially own at least 2.5% (but less than 6.25%) of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities, then the Blackstone Investors are entitled to appoint one director. In addition, for so long as the Blackstone Investors beneficially own at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Voting Securities, then the Blackstone Investors will remain entitled, jointly with Cannae (or the replacement Sponsor Investor designator), to designate one director and to consent to any individual nominated for election to the Alight Board seat initially occupied by the chief executive officer of Alight.

Under the Investor Rights Agreement, any director that has been designated by the Blackstone Investors or the Sponsor Investors may only be removed with the consent of such investor, and the Blackstone Investors and Sponsor Investors (or, if applicable, the joint designator) will be entitled to appoint replacement designees in the event a vacancy is created with respect to one of their designees.

Alight has agreed to include the applicable designees in its slate of nominees for election at any stockholder meetings and to use reasonable best efforts to cause each designee to be elected. Each of the Sponsor Investors and the Existing Investors agreed with Alight that it would vote in favor of the Alight Board’s slate of nominees.

Lock-Up Period; Vesting and Transfer Restrictions

The Existing Investors have agreed not to transfer any securities of Alight or Alight Holdings (other than any securities purchased on the open market following the Closing Date) for a period of beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (A) 180 days thereafter or (B) if the VWAP of the Company Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a consecutive 30 trading day period, 60 days thereafter. During the lock-up period, the Existing Investors will be permitted to sell up to 30 million shares of Alight Class A common stock, in the aggregate, subject to certain coordination requirements among the Existing Investors.

The parties to the Investor Rights Agreement have also agreed to certain forfeiture and vesting terms in respect of their Alight common stock that are consistent with the vesting and forfeiture provisions in the Charter and the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement.

In the event that the lock-up provisions in the Sponsor Agreement are waived in a manner that is favorable to the Sponsor Investors or the lock-up in the Investor Rights Agreement is waived with respect to any of the Existing Investors, the Investor Rights Agreement provides that the lock-up provisions applicable to the Existing Investors or Sponsor Investors, as applicable, will automatically be waived on a pro rata basis. In addition, if any of the forfeiture or vesting provisions with respect to the Alight Class B common stock in the Sponsor Agreement or the Alight Charter (or the equivalent provisions regarding forfeiture or vesting of the Class B Units of Alight Holdings in the Alight Holdings Operating Agreement) are modified in a manner that is favorable to the Sponsor Investors then the corresponding modifications will automatically apply to the transfer restrictions and vesting provisions in the Investor Rights Agreement.

Registration Rights Agreement

On the Closing Date, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Alight entered into the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), dated as of July 2, 2021, with the Sponsor Investors, the Blackstone Investors and the other Existing Investors (collectively, the “RRA Parties”).


CUSIP No. 01626W101    13D    Page 32 of 43

 

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Alight is required, as soon as practicable, but in any event within 30 days after the Closing Date, to file a registration statement to permit the public resale of all “Registrable Securities” (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) held by the RRA Parties from time to time as permitted by Rule 415 under the Securities Act. In addition, upon the demand of any such RRA Party, Alight will be required to facilitate a non-shelf registered offering of shares of Class A common stock requested by such RRA Party to be included in such offering. Any demanded non-shelf registered offering may, at Alight’s option, include shares of Class A common stock to be sold by Alight for its own account and will also include registrable shares to be sold by holders that exercise their related piggyback rights in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement. Within 90 days after receipt of a demand for such registration, Alight will be required to use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement relating to such demand. In certain circumstances, the RRA Parties will be entitled to piggyback registration rights in connection with the demand of a non-shelf registered offering.

In addition, the Registration Rights Agreement will entitle the RRA Parties to demand and be included in a shelf registration when Alight is eligible to sell its shares of Class A common stock in a secondary offering on a delayed or continuous basis in accordance with Rule 415 of the Securities Act.

The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that Alight will pay certain expenses relating to such registrations and indemnify the registration rights holders against (or make contributions in respect of) certain liabilities which may arise under the Securities Act.
