EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this "Registration Statement") is being filed by Finance of America Companies Inc. (the "Registrant") for the purpose of registering additional shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Registrant (the "Class A Common Stock"), reserved for issuance under the Finance of America Companies Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). These shares of Class A Common Stock are additional securities of the same class as other securities for which an original registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-257180) was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on June 17, 2021 (the "
Original Registration Statement
"), which registered 21,250,000 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and an
additional registration statement on Form S-8
(File No. 333-265690), which was filed with the Commission on June 17, 2022 to register 21,106,586 additional shares of Class A Common Stock issuable under the Plan.
The shares of Class A Common Stock registered by this Registration Statement consist of: (i) 10,009,416 shares of Class A Common Stock that have become reserved for issuance as a result of the operation of the "evergreen" provision of the Plan as of January 1, 2023 and January 1, 2024, which provides that the total number of shares subject to the Plan will be increased on the first day of each fiscal year pursuant to a specified formula; and (ii) 5,660,939 shares of Class A Common Stock that have become available for issuance under the Plan as a result of cancellation, forfeiture, termination, settlement in cash, or other settlement without issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock in respect of awards under the Plan. Other than the 10,009,416 shares of Class A Common Stock that have become available for issuance pursuant to the "evergreen" provision of the Plan, the shares registered by this Registration Statement do not represent an increase in the number of shares previously reserved for issuance under the Plan.
Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, the contents of the registration statements referenced above are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement, except that the provisions contained in Part II of such registration statements are modified or supplemented, as the case may be, as set forth in this Registration Statement.
