Item 1.01    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Agreement and Plan of Merger
On November 16, 2021, nCino, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Company, Penny HoldCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of nCino ("Parent"), Dollar Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("nCino Merger Sub"), Penny Merger Sub, LLC, a Utah limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("SimpleNexus Merger Sub"), Penny Blocker 1 Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Blocker 1 Merger Sub"), Penny Blocker 2 Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Blocker 2 Merger Sub"), Penny Blocker 3 Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Blocker 3 Merger Sub"), Penny Blocker 4 Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Blocker 4 Merger Sub" and, together with Blocker 1 Merger Sub, Blocker 2 Merger Sub and Blocker 3 Merger Sub, the "Blocker Merger Subs" and, together with nCino Merger Sub and SimpleNexus Merger Sub, the "Merger Subs"), Insight (Delaware) SN Blocker Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Blocker 1"), Insight (Cayman) SN Blocker Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Blocker 2"), ScarletFire SN Blocker Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Blocker 3"), TLEO, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Blocker 4" and, together with Blocker 1, Blocker 2 and Blocker 3, the "Blockers"), SimpleNexus, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (the "SimpleNexus"), and Insight Venture Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, solely in its capacity as the Member Representative (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
The Company and the other parties to the Merger Agreement have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, to effect the following mergers pursuant to which the Company will acquire SimpleNexus and the Blockers, (i) nCino Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "nCino Merger"), (ii) each of the Blocker Merger Subs will be merged with and into the respective corresponding Blocker, with each of the respective Blockers surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, (iii) SimpleNexus Merger Sub will be merged with and into SimpleNexus, with SimpleNexus surviving as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Parent (the mergers contemplated in clauses (i) – (iii) hereof, collectively, the "Mergers") and (iv), at the option of Parent, each of the Surviving Blockers may be merged with and into Parent, with Parent surviving such mergers.
The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Company will pay to certain securityholders of SimpleNexus and the securityholders of the Blockers a total consideration of approximately $1.2 billion, subject to certain adjustments.  The consideration to be paid to such securityholders will consist, in the aggregate, of approximately 80% Parent common stock, par value $0.0005 ("Parent Common Stock") (at a fixed value of $72.5250 per share, which is the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of the shares of Company Common Stock for the 20 trading days prior to and including November 12, 2021), and approximately 20% in cash, subject to certain adjustments. Any securityholder of SimpleNexus or the Blockers that is not an accredited investor will receive his, her or its portion of the merger consideration solely in cash and the securityholders that are accredited investors will receive proportionally more shares of Parent Common Stock and less cash.  A portion of the cash consideration will also be held in escrow to serve as security for the potential payment of a customary post-closing purchase price adjustment, capped at the amount of such escrowed funds.
Holding Company Reorganization
In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0005 ("Company Common Stock") that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the nCino Merger will automatically convert into an equivalent corresponding share of Parent Common Stock, having the same designations, rights, powers and preferences and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the corresponding share of Company Common Stock being converted. Accordingly, upon consummation of the nCino Merger, the Company's stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the nCino Merger will become the stockholders of Parent. The stockholders of the Company will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the conversion of their shares in the nCino Merger.
The nCino Merger will be conducted pursuant to Section 251(g) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which provides for the formation of a holding company without a vote of the stockholders of the constituent corporation. The conversion of stock will occur automatically. Following the consummation of the nCino Merger, Parent Common Stock shares will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on an uninterrupted basis under the symbol "NCNO" with a new CUSIP number.  Immediately after consummation of the nCino Merger, Parent will have, on a consolidated basis, the same assets, businesses and operations as the Company had immediately prior to the consummation of the nCino Merger. As a result of the nCino Merger, Parent will become the successor issuer to the Company pursuant to 12g-3(a) of the Exchange Act and as a result the Parent Common Stock shares will be deemed registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act.
Other Terms of the Merger Agreement
The Merger Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, Parent, the Merger Subs, SimpleNexus and the Blockers. Between the date of execution of the Merger Agreement and the effective times of the Mergers, as applicable, SimpleNexus has agreed to use reasonable best efforts to conduct its and its subsidiaries' business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and to comply with certain operating covenants, and the Company has also agreed to comply with certain covenants. The Merger Agreement generally requires each party to take reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under, and obtain as promptly as reasonably practicable all consents under, applicable regulatory laws that may be required by a governmental entity so as to enable the parties to consummate the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also provides customary termination rights to each of the parties. The Company or SimpleNexus may terminate the Merger Agreement if the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers, are not consummated by March 16, 2022.
The completion of the Mergers is subject to customary conditions, including, without limitation, (i) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (ii) the absence of any material applicable law or any order that has the effect of enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the completion of the Mergers, (iii) the receipt of certain tax opinions, (iv) the absence of a material adverse effect on the Company and SimpleNexus, and (v) the authorization for listing of the shares of Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is anticipated to occur in the fourth quarter of the Company's fiscal year, ending January 31, 2022.
A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement.
Restrictive Covenant Agreement
Affiliates of Insight Partners are equityholders of each of SimpleNexus and certain of the Blockers in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and other affiliates of Insight Partners are currently significant stockholders of the Company (collectively, the "Insight Parties").  As such, and as a condition and material inducement to the willingness of the Company, Parent and the Merger Subs to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Insight Parties have entered into a restrictive covenant agreement with Parent providing for, among other things, the Insight Parties' agreement not to sell or otherwise directly or indirectly dispose of approximately two-thirds of the shares of Parent Common Stock that will be held by the Insight Parties following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on a pro forma basis, and assuming no sales by the Insight Parties of shares of the Company's Common Stock prior to the Closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.  Following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, approximately one third of this approximately two-thirds will be released from such restrictions on each of the six, nine and twelve month anniversaries of the closing of the transactions.
A copy of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement with the Insight Parties is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing summary of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restrictive Covenant Agreement.
