Business Combination Business Combination
On January 17, 2020, the Company consummated the previously announced merger pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 15, 2019, by and among the Company, Merger Sub, and Legacy Vivint Smart Home, as amended by the Merger Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2019, by and among the Company, Maiden Sub and Legacy Vivint Smart Home.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and Legacy Vivint Smart Home was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy Vivint Smart Home, with Legacy Vivint Smart Home as the surviving company. At the effective time of the Business Combination (the “Effective Time”), each stockholder of Legacy Vivint Smart Home received 84.5320916792 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for each share of Legacy Vivint Smart Home common stock, par value $0.01 per share, that such stockholder owned.
Pursuant in each case to a Subscription Agreement entered into in connection with the Merger Agreement, certain investment funds managed by affiliates of Fortress Investment Group LLC (“Fortress”) and certain investment funds affiliated with Blackstone Inc. (“Blackstone”) purchased, respectively, 12,500,000 and 10,000,000 newly-issued shares of Common Stock (such purchases, the “Fortress PIPE” and the “Blackstone PIPE,” respectively, and together, the “PIPE”) concurrently with the completion of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) on the Closing Date for an aggregate purchase price of $125.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively. In connection with the Merger, each of the issued and outstanding Founder Shares was converted into approximately 1.20 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The private placement warrants will expire five years after the Closing or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
In connection with the execution of the Amendment, the Company entered into a Subscription and Backstop Agreement (the “Fortress Subscription and Backstop Agreement”). On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Fortress Subscription and Backstop Agreement, Fortress purchased 2,698,753 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate of $27.8 million. In addition, the Company entered into an additional subscription agreement (the “Additional Forward Purchaser Subscription Agreement”) with one of the forward purchasers (the “Forward Purchaser”). Pursuant to the Additional Forward Purchaser Subscription Agreement, immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Forward Purchaser purchased from us 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. As consideration for the additional investment, concurrently with the Closing, 25% of Mosaic Sponsor LLC’s founder shares (“Forward Shares”) and private placement warrants were forfeited to the Company and the Company issued to the Forward Purchaser a number of shares of Common Stock equal to approximately 1.20 times the number of Founder Shares forfeited and a number of warrants equal to the number of private placement warrants forfeited.
At the Closing, certain investors (including an affiliate of Fortress) received an aggregate of 15,789,474 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $9.50 per share (the “IPO Forward Purchaser Investment”) pursuant to the terms of the forward purchase agreements the Company entered into in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.
In connection with the Closing, 31,074,592 shares of Common Stock were redeemed at a price per share of approximately $10.29. In addition, in connection with the Closing, each Founder Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (other than the Founder Shares forfeited in connection with the Additional Forward Purchaser Subscription Agreement) converted into approximately 1.2 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of Legacy Vivint Smart Home preferred stock (other than shares owned by Legacy Vivint Smart Home as treasury stock) converted into approximately 1.43 shares of Legacy Vivint Smart Home common stock in accordance with the certificate of designations of the Legacy Vivint Smart Home preferred stock.
As part of the Business Combination, the Company assumed the liabilities associated with the outstanding public warrants and private placement warrants. The Company recorded the warrants as a derivative liability at fair value on the date of the Business Combination.

Earnout consideration
Following the closing of the Merger, holders of Vivint common stock and holders of rollover restricted stock units (“Rollover RSUs”), the rollover stock appreciation rights (“Rollover SARs”), the shares of rollover restricted stock (“Rollover Restricted Stock”) and any awards granted under the Company rollover long-term incentive program (“Rollover LTIP Plans”) (together, “Rollover Equity Awards”) had the contingent right to receive, in the aggregate, up to 37,500,000 shares of Common Stock if, from the closing of the Merger until the fifth anniversary thereof, the dollar volume-weighted average price of Common Stock exceeded certain thresholds. The first issuance of 12,500,000 earnout shares occurred when the volume-weighted average price of Common Stock exceeded $12.50 for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period (the “First Earnout”). The second issuance of 12,500,000 earnout shares occurred when the volume weighted average price of Common Stock exceeded $15.00 for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period (the “Second Earnout”). The third issuance of 12,500,000 earnout shares occurred when the volume weighted average price of Common Stock exceeded $17.50 for any 20-trading days within any 30-trading day period (the “Third Earnout”) (as further described in the Merger Agreement).
Subsequent to the closing of the Merger, the cumulative issuance of 37,323,959 shares of Common Stock occurred after attainment of the First Earnout, Second Earnout and Third Earnout in February, March and September 2020, respectively. The difference in the shares issued in the earnouts and the aggregate amounts defined in the Merger Agreement above are primarily attributable to unissued shares reserved for future issuance to holders of Rollover Equity Awards, which are subject to the same vesting terms and conditions as the underlying Rollover Equity Awards. Additionally, shares were withheld from employees to satisfy the mandatory tax withholding requirements. The Company has determined that the earnout shares issued to non-employee shareholders and to holders of Vivint common stock and vested Rollover Equity Awards qualify for the scope exception in ASC 815-10-15-74(a) and meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815-40. These earnout shares were initially measured at fair value at Closing. Upon the attainment of the share price targets, the earnout shares delivered to the equity holders are recorded in equity as shares issued, with the appropriate allocation to common stock at par and additional paid-in capital. Since all earnout shares have determined to be equity-classified, there is no remeasurement unless reclassification is required. For the earnout shares associated with unvested Rollover Equity Awards, the Company has determined that they qualify for equity classification and are subject to stock-based compensation expense under ASC 718.
