This Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment") amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this "Schedule TO") originally filed by Hagerty, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company," "us," or "we"), on June 3, 2024 (as amended, the "Schedule TO"). This Schedule TO relates to an offer by the Company to all holders of the Company's outstanding public warrants (the "Public Warrants"), private warrants (the "Private Warrants"), underwriter warrants (the "Underwriter Warrants"), OTM Warrants (the "OTM Warrants" and together with the Private Warrants and the Underwriter Warrants, the "Private Placement Warrants") and PIPE warrants (the "PIPE Warrants" and, together with the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants, the "Warrants"), each to purchase shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock"), to receive 0.20 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for each outstanding Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the "Offer"). The Offer was made upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the prospectus/offer to exchange (the "Prospectus/Offer to Exchange"), dated July 1, 2024, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal and consent, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(B).
Concurrently with the Offer, we solicited consents (the "Consent Solicitation") from holders of the Warrants to amend (i) that certain warrant agreement governing the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants, dated as of April 8, 2021, by and between the Company (as successor to Aldel Financial Inc. ("Aldel")) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("CST"), as warrant agent (the "IPO Warrant Amendment"), and (ii) that certain warrant agreement governing the PIPE Warrants, dated as of December 2, 2021, by and between the Company and CST (the "Business Combination Warrant Amendment" and together with the IPO Warrant Amendment, the "Warrant Amendments"), to permit the Company to require that each Warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be exchanged for 0.18 shares of Class A Common Stock, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer.
The purpose of this Amendment is to amend and supplement the Schedule TO to (i) update Item 11 of the Schedule TO to report the final results of the Offer, and (ii) update Item 12 of the Schedule TO to include a press release issued by the Company on July 3, 2024 announcing the results of the Offer.
Only those items amended are reported in this Amendment. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO and the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange remains unchanged and is hereby expressly incorporated into this Amendment by reference. This Amendment should be read together with the Schedule TO and the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.
Item 11. Additional Information.
Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding at the end thereof the following text:
The Offer and Consent Solicitation expired one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 2, 2024. The Company has been advised that (i) 5,019,278 Public Warrants, or approximately 87.3% of the outstanding Public Warrants, (ii) 1,561,381 Private Placement Warrants, or approximately 98.4% of the outstanding Private Placement Warrants and (iii) 11,850,300 PIPE Warrants, or approximately 97.6% of the outstanding PIPE Warrants, were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer. The Company began the settlement and exchange of such Warrants, each for 0.2 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, on July 5, 2024. In addition, pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, the Company received the approval of approximately (i) 87.3% of the outstanding Public Warrants and 98.4% of the outstanding Private Placement Warrants, and (ii) 97.6% of the outstanding PIPE Warrants, each of which exceeds the consent required to effect the respective Warrant Amendments. Accordingly, on July 3, 2024, the Company and CST entered into the Warrant Amendments. The Company then exercised its right created by the Warrant Amendments to require the exchange (the "Post-Offer Exchange") of each remaining outstanding Warrant for 0.18 shares of Class A Common Stock and has fixed 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on July 22, 2024 as the exchange date for the Post-Offer Exchange.
On July 3, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the final results of the Offer as set forth above. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(5)(ii) and is incorporated herein by reference.
