As disclosed on April 13, 2022, RH (the “Company”) entered into partial unwind agreements, with certain financial institutions (collectively, the “Initial Warrant Counterparties”), relating to a portion of certain warrant transactions (collectively, the “Partial Warrant Termination Agreements”) that were previously entered into by the Company with such Initial Warrant Counterparties and certain other financial institutions (collectively, the “Warrant Counterparties”) in connection with RH’s issuance of its 0.00% convertible notes due in 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) and its 0.00% convertible notes due in 2024 (the “2024 Notes” and together with the 2023 Notes, the “Convertible Notes”) with respect to a total of 1,200,000 warrants (the “Initial Repurchased Warrants”) consisting of 600,000 of the warrants entered into with respect to the 2023 Notes (the “2023 Note Warrants”) and 600,000 of the warrants entered into with respect to the 2024 Notes (the “2024 Note Warrants” and together with the 2023 Note Warrants, the “Note Warrants”).

 

Additional Warrant Termination Agreements

 

The Company entered into additional unwind agreements with the Warrant Counterparties as of April 14, 2022, providing for the termination of the remainder of all outstanding Note Warrants (collectively the “Remaining Warrant Termination Agreements”) consisting of 1,129,940 outstanding 2023 Note Warrants and 1,055,640 outstanding 2024 Note Warrants (collectively, the “Remaining Repurchased Warrants”).

 

Consistent with the terms of the Partial Warrant Termination Agreements, the Company will settle the Remaining Repurchased Warrants for a purchase price payable in cash based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price for RH’s Common Stock over a price measurement period with respect to each such Remaining Warrant Termination Agreement.

 

The Warrant Counterparties or their respective affiliates may buy or sell shares of the Company’s common stock or may into enter into other derivative securities transactions in order to adjust their hedge position in relation to the Remaining Warrant Termination Agreements.

 

The Remaining Warrant Termination Agreements were entered into with the Warrant Counterparties consisting of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, UBS AG, London Branch, JP Morgan Chase Bank, National Association, London Branch, Citibank N.A., Barclays Bank PLC and various affiliated entities.

 

The 2023 Note Warrants have an exercise price of $309.84 per share and the 2024 Note Warrants have an exercise price of $338.24 per share.

 

The foregoing description of the Remaining Warrant Termination Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the forms of the Remaining Warrant Termination Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Convertible Bond Hedge Unwind Transactions

 

The Company and the entities constituting the Warrant Counterparties (the “Bond Hedge Counterparties”) also entered into agreements (the “Bond Hedge Termination Agreements”) as of April 14, 2022, providing for the termination of all of the convertible note hedges previously entered into in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes.

 

The Bond Hedge Termination Agreements provide for a payment to the Company in cash based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price for RH’s Common Stock over a price measurement period with respect to each such Bond Hedge Termination Agreement.

 

The Bond Hedge Counterparties or their respective affiliates may buy or sell shares of the Company’s common stock or may into enter into other derivative securities transactions in order to adjust their hedge position in relation to the Bond Hedge Termination Agreements.

 

The Bond Hedge Termination Agreements were entered into with the Bond Hedge Counterparties, consisting of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, UBS AG, London Branch, JP Morgan Chase Bank, National Association, London Branch, Citibank N.A., Barclays Bank PLC and various affiliated entities.

 

The foregoing description of the Bond Hedge Termination Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the forms of Bond Hedge Termination Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

 

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

Convertible Note Repurchases

 

As disclosed on April 14, 2022, the Company entered into individual privately negotiated transactions (the “Note Repurchase Agreements”) to repurchase a portion of its outstanding Convertible Notes. As of April 14, 2022, the Company has entered into Note Repurchase Agreements pursuant to which the Company has agreed to repurchase $45 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes and $135 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes (collectively, the “Note Repurchases”).

 

The Note Repurchase Agreements provide for a purchase price payable by the Company in cash based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price for RH’s Common Stock over a price measurement period with respect to each such Note Repurchase Agreement.

 

The holders of the Convertible Notes that are parties to the Note Repurchase Agreement or their respective affiliates may buy or sell shares of the Company’s common stock or may into enter into other derivative securities transactions in order to adjust their hedge position in relation to the Note Repurchase Agreements.

 

An aggregate principal amount of approximately $101 million of Convertible Notes will remain outstanding following the completion of the Note Repurchases, consisting of approximately $20 million in aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes and $81 million in aggregate principal amount of 2024 Notes.

 

Aggregate Net Cash Payment by the Company

 

As a result of the Bond Hedge Termination Agreements, all convertible note hedges entered into in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes will be terminated including convertible note hedges with respect to any Convertible Notes that remain outstanding.

 

As a result of the Remaining Warrant Termination Agreements, all Note Warrants entered into in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes will be terminated including Note Warrants with respect to any Convertible Notes that remain outstanding.

 

The termination of the Note Warrants and convertible note hedges and the repurchase of outstanding Convertible Notes in each case involve payment of a final purchase price in cash that depends upon the price at which the Common Stock of RH trades during a measurement period for determination of the applicable purchase price.

 

While it is not possible to predict with certainty the net amount of cash that the Company will pay to complete the foregoing transactions (until completion of the applicable pricing measurement periods for each of the transactions), the Company estimates that it will expend in aggregate a net total amount of approximately $490 million in cash to achieve (i) the repurchase of $180 million in aggregate principal balance of Convertible Notes, (ii) the termination of all of the Note Warrants including both the Initial Repurchased Warrants as previously disclosed and the Remaining Repurchased Warrants, and (iii) the termination of all of the convertible note hedges in connection with the Convertible Notes (including terminating all Note Warrants and convertible note hedges in connection with the approximately $101 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes that will remain outstanding).
