EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) is being filed by MPH Acquisition Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MPH LLC”), MPH Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“MPH Corp.”), Polaris Intermediate Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Polaris Intermediate”), Polaris Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and successor to Polaris Parent Corp. (“MultiPlan Parent”), Polaris Investment Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Holdings”), and Polaris Investment Holdings GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Polaris GP”, and collectively with MPH LLC, MPH Corp. Polaris Intermediate, MultiPlan Parent and Holdings, the “Reporting Persons”) and amends the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by the Reporting Persons on August 28, 2020 (the “Original Schedule 13D”, and as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) of MultiPlan Corporation (formerly known as Churchill Capital Corp. III), a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).

This Amendment is being filed to reflect certain transactions in connection with the closing of the mergers (the “Mergers”) contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Issuer, Polaris Parent Corp., Holdings, Music Merger Sub I, Inc., a newly formed Delaware corporation and subsidiary of the Issuer (“First Merger Sub”), and Music Merger Sub II LLC, a newly formed Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of the Issuer (“Second Merger Sub”), and to report that as a result of such Mergers, Polaris Parent Corp. has been merged with and into a subsidiary of the Issuer and all shares of Class A Common Stock previously reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons are now beneficially owned by the Issuer and certain of its subsidiaries. As a result, such shares of Class A Common Stock are no longer considered outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and will be held by the Issuer and its subsidiaries in treasury.

The Items below amend the information disclosed under the corresponding Items of the Schedule 13D as described below. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 1. Security and Issuer

Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

This Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D”) relates to the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of MultiPlan Corporation (formerly known as Churchill Capital Corp. III), a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 115 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10003.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) and (f). This Schedule 13D is being filed jointly on behalf of the following persons (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”):

 

  1.

MPH Acquisition Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MPH LLC”),

 

  2.

MPH Acquisition Corp.1, a Delaware corporation (“MPH Corp.”),

 

  3.

Polaris Intermediate Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Polaris Intermediate”),

 

  4.

Polaris Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and successor to Polaris Parent Corp. (“MultiPlan Parent”),

 

  5.

8


The Reporting Persons have entered into an agreement of joint filing, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A to the Original Schedule 13D.

(b) and (c). The managing member of MPH LLC is MPH Corp. The sole stockholder of MPH Corp. is Polaris Intermediate. The sole stockholder of Polaris Intermediate is MultiPlan Parent. Following the Mergers, MultiPlan Parent is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer. Holdings is the former sole stockholder of MultiPlan Parent. The general partner of Holdings is Polaris GP.

The principal business of each of MPH LLC, MPH Corp., Polaris Intermediate and MultiPlan Parent is to serve as a holding company for MultiPlan, Inc., which provides data analytics and technology-enabled end-to-end cost management solutions to the U.S. healthcare industry. In connection with the closing of the Mergers, Holdings has entered into a plan of liquidation, transferred its ownership in MultiPlan Parent and is no longer the sole stockholder of MultiPlan Parent. The principal business of Polaris GP is to serve as the general partner of Holdings.

The principal office of each of the Reporting Persons, except Holdings and Polaris GP, is located at 115 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10003. The principal office of Holdings and Polaris GP is located at 415 Mission Street, Suite 5700, San Francisco, CA 94105.

(d) and (e). None of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons listed on Annex A has, during the past five years, been convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Closing of Mergers

On October 8, 2020, the Mergers as contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated, and MultiPlan Parent and its subsidiaries became indirectly owned subsidiaries of the Issuer. In connection with such Mergers, all shares of Class A Common Stock held by MPH LLC previously reported on this Schedule 13D are now held by the Issuer or a subsidiary of the Issuer as treasury shares and are no longer considered to be outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.

In connection with the closing of the Mergers, an aggregate of 415,700,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were payable to Holdings and its equityholders as partial merger consideration. As previously disclosed, in connection with the closing of the Mergers, and pursuant to a plan of liquidation and dissolution, (i) on the day prior to the closing date of the Mergers, Holdings distributed all of its beneficial interest in equity interests of Polaris Parent Corp. pro rata to Holdings’ equityholders in accordance with Holdings’ governing documents and (ii) acting as agent on behalf of Holdings’ equityholders, upon receipt of the merger consideration, Holdings distributed such consideration to Holdings’ equityholders. Following the completion of these actions, Holdings is expected to be liquidated and resolved.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) – (b) MPH LLC held 9,094,876 shares of Class A Common Stock as of the closing date of the Mergers. Following the mergers, Second Merger Sub (as the surviving entity in the merger with Polaris Parent Corp.) and its subsidiaries are subsidiaries of the Issuer and such shares of Class A Common Stock are no longer considered outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. As a result, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 0 shares of the Issuer’s outstanding Class A Common Stock, or 0% of the Class A Common Stock outstanding.

(c) Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons have effected any transaction with respect to the Class A Common Stock since the filing of the Original Schedule 13D.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) As described herein, following the closing of the Mergers, as of October 8, 2020, each of the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially owns any shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
