Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 31, 2023, Offerpad Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a pre-funded warrants subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with the investors named therein (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investors an aggregate of 160,742,959 pre-funded warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”). Each Warrant was sold at a price of $0.5599 per Warrant and has an initial exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant, subject to certain customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions. The exercise price for the Warrants can be paid in cash or on a cashless basis, and the Warrants have no expiration date. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of the Transaction, which closed on January 31, 2023 (the “Closing”), were approximately $90.0 million. The Investors included Brian Bair, the Company’s founder, chief executive officer and chairman of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”); Roberto Sella, a member of the Board; First American Financial Corporation (“First American”), a holder of more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding Class A Common Stock; and Kenneth DeGiorgio, a member of the Board and chief executive officer of First American.

The issuance of the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants has been approved by the Company’s stockholders holding stock representing more than a majority of the voting power of the Company’s common stock, and the Company will prepare and file a related information statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Warrants will not be exercisable until at least 21 days after the definitive information statement is filed with the SEC or such later time as is necessary to comply with the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange. Furthermore, under the terms of the Subscription Agreement, the Investors have agreed not to transact in or transfer any of the Company’s securities, without the Company’s prior written consent, for the period of time from the Closing until two trading days following the filing with the SEC of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three months ending March 31, 2023.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Transaction for general corporate purposes, including working capital.

Under the terms of the Subscription Agreement, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”) and to use reasonable best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective (A) in the event that the SEC does not review the registration statement, thirty (30) days after the Filing Deadline, or (ii) in the event that the SEC reviews the registration statement, seventy-five (75) days after the Filing Deadline (but in any event, no later than four (4) business days following the SEC indicating that it has no further comments on the registration statement). Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s amended and restated registration rights agreement, dated September 1, 2021 (the “RRA”), any Warrant Shares acquired by Investors who are party to the RRA will be considered “registrable securities” for purposes of the RRA.

The Subscription Agreement and form of Warrant described above include customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and the Investors, which were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. The foregoing descriptions of the Subscription Agreement and form of Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified by reference to the full text of such agreements, which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 4.1, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement and in connection with the Transaction, the Company issued the Pre-Funded Warrants to the Investors. The number of securities issued, the nature of the transaction and the nature and amount of consideration received by the Company are described in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The Transaction was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Any issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants pursuant to a cashless exercise will be made pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of Securities Act as exchanges exclusively with existing security holders. Any other issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants will be made pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The initial maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is 160,742,959 shares, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.


Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 1, 2023, the Company issued a press release regarding the Transaction. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 8.01

Other Events.

In connection with the consummation of the Transaction, Mr. Bair notified the Board that he will convert all shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”), beneficially owned by him to shares of Class A Common Stock immediately following the conclusion of the Company’s 2023 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Bair is the sole beneficial owner of the 14,816,236 shares of the Company’s outstanding Class B Common Stock, which currently entitle him to 10 votes per share on matters presented to the Company’s stockholders.

Additionally, in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, the Company, Mr. Bair, First American and LL Capital Partners I, L.P. and SIF V, LLC entered into a voting agreement, dated January 31, 2023 (the “Voting Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Voting Agreement, the parties thereto agreed with the Company, severally and not jointly, to vote their shares in support of the Transaction, until the earlier of (a) a termination of the Subscription Agreement, (b) 11:59 p.m., eastern time, on the second trading day after the Company files its Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2023 and (c) 11:59 p.m., eastern time, on May 12, 2023. Promptly following the execution of the Subscription Agreement, the stockholders who are party to the Voting Agreement and other stockholders of the Company representing more than a majority of the voting power of the Company’s common stock delivered a written consent approving the Transaction.

PRE-FUNDED WARRANT TO PURCHASE CLASS A COMMON STOCK

Warrant No.:                 

Number of Shares of Class A Common Stock:_____________

Date of Issuance: January 31, 2023 (“Issuance Date”)

Offerpad Solutions Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [PURCHASER], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Class A Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Class A Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock indicated above (the “Warrant Shares”). This Warrant shall not expire prior to exercise. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 15. This Warrant is one of the Warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to that certain Subscription Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2023 (the “Subscription Date”), by and among the Company and the investors (the “Purchasers”) referred to therein (the “Subscription Agreement”).


1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(g) and (h)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the date hereof, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of a written notice(whether via facsimile, electronic mail or otherwise), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (an “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii)(A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d) hereof). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder, nor shall any ink-original signature or medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) with respect to any Exercise Notice be required. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On or before the first (1st) Business Day following the date on which the Company has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (together, the “Exercise Delivery Documents”), the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise Delivery Documents (“Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X) cause the Transfer Agent to credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with the Transfer Agent, or (Y) if requested by the Holder, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent and all fees and expenses with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which are acquired upon such exercise. No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company’s obligation to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof is absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver Warrant Shares with respect to an exercise prior to the Holder’s delivery of the Aggregate Exercise Price with respect to such exercise.

 

- 2 -


(b) Exercise Price. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment as provided herein (such nominal exercise price, the “Exercise Price”), was pre-funded to the Company on the date of the issuance of this Warrant.

(c) Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If either (I) the Company shall fail, other than due to any action or inaction on the part of the Holder, to issue to the Holder on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date, if (x) requested by the Holder, a certificate for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such Class A Common Stock on the Company’s share register or (y) to credit to the Holder’s balance account with the Transfer Agent, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant (the “Exercise Failure”) or (II) a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of an Exercise Notice (the “Exercise Notice Warrant Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares (and Rule 144 is not available at such time for the resale of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares) and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after such registration statement becomes unavailable, notify the Holder, and in connection with a sale of any such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares by the Holder (the “Sold Exercise Warrant Shares”), the Company is unable to deliver the Sold Exercise Warrant Shares without a restrictive legend (a “Notice Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, if as a result of such Exercise Failure or Notice Failure, the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Class A Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Holder’s request, (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Class A Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Class A Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Class A Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely

deliver shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. The Company’s current transfer agent participates in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”). In the event that the Company changes transfer agents while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall select a transfer agent that participates in FAST. While this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to participate in FAST with respect to the Warrant Shares.

In addition to the foregoing rights, (A) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and (B) if a registration statement covering the resale of Exercise Notice Warrant Shares is not available for the resale of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares, the Holder has submitted an Exercise Notice prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement, and the Company has not already delivered to the Holder the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares without any restrictive legend, then the Holder shall have the right to (x) rescind such Exercise Notice in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Exercise Notice from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

(d) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a registration statement covering the resale of the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares is not available for the resale, as applicable, of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Class A Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)

                             B

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

  A=

the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

 

  B=

the Closing Sale Price of the Class A Common Stock (as reported by Bloomberg) on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.

 

  C=

the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

 

- 4 -


Without limiting the rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise,” and to receive the cash payments contemplated pursuant to Sections 1(c) and 4(b), in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle a Warrant exercise.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged, and the Company agrees not to take a contrary position, that the Warrant Shares issued in a “cashless exercise” transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued (provided that the SEC continues to take the position that such treatment is proper at the time of such exercise).

In the event that a registration statement registering the issuance of the Warrant Shares is, for any reason, not effective at the time of exercise of this Warrant, then the Warrant may only be exercised through a cashless exercise, as set forth in this Section 1. Except as set forth in Section 1(c), in no event will the exercise of this Warrant be settled in cash.

(e) Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 12.

(f) Required Reserve Amount. So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Warrant a number of shares of Class A Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Class A Common Stock under the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 1(f) be reduced other than in connection with any exercise of Warrants or such other event covered by Section 2(c) below.

(g) Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Class A Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall promptly take all action reasonably necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Class A Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for this Warrant then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Class A Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C, and such obligation shall be deemed satisfied on the 21st calendar day after such filing is accepted.

 

- 5 -


(h) Limitation on Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant, and the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Warrant Shares, earlier than the date that is twenty-one (21) days following filing and mailing of the definitive Information Statement (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission or such later time as is necessary to comply with the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange.

2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2 shall become effective at the close of business on the date such subdivision or combination becomes effective.

3. RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS; PURCHASE RIGHTS.

(a) In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time on or after the Subscription Date, the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Class A Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), then, in each such case, upon exercise of this Warrant after the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such Distribution, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to the Warrant Shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise, the Distribution that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of such number of Warrant Shares had the Holder been the record holder of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to such record date without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant.

(b) In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time on or after the Subscription Date the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the holders of its Class A Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Class A Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Class A Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights.

4. FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4, including agreements to deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Class A Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the Exercise Price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Upon the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for the Company (so that from and after the date of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Class A Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Section 3 above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction, such shares of common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting Section 1(h) hereof, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 4 to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall, or shall cause the Successor Entity to, make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Class A Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Section 3 above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the

The Company may also issue a press release describing the material terms of the transactions contemplated thereby.

Section 5.04 Section 16 Matters. The Company’s Board of Directors shall pre-approve the direct or indirect acquisition or disposition, as applicable, of the Securities by each Purchaser, its affiliates, or, if applicable, any director affiliated with a Purchaser (any such director, a “Purchaser Director”), for the express purpose of exempting each Purchaser’s, its affiliates’ or any Purchaser Director’s interests (to the extent such Purchaser or its affiliates may be deemed to be “directors by deputization”) in such transaction from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 thereunder.

Section 5.05 Registration Rights.

(a) On or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the resale on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act of the full amount of the Underlying Class A Common Stock acquired by the Purchasers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Registrable Securities”). The registration statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate form for such purpose). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC no later than the date, which shall be either: (i) in the event that the SEC does not review the registration statement, thirty (30) days after the Filing Deadline, or (ii) in the event that the SEC reviews the registration statement, seventy-five (75) days after the Filing Deadline (but in any event, no later than four (4) business days following the SEC indicating that it has no further comments on the registration statement). Subject to any comments from the staff of the SEC, such registration statement shall include the plan of distribution in form and substance reasonably satisfactory the Purchasers beneficially owning (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) a majority of the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that no Purchaser shall be named as an “underwriter” in the registration statement; provided, further, that the Company’s obligations to include a Purchaser’s Registrable Securities in the registration statement contemplated by this Section 5.05 are contingent upon such Purchaser furnishing a completed and executed selling stockholder questionnaire in customary form to the Company that contains the information required by SEC rules for a registration statement regarding such Purchaser, the securities of the Company held by such Purchaser and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities, and each Purchaser agrees, severally, to execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

 

15


(b) At such time as the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 5.05(a) hereof, the Company shall effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

(i) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep each registration statement effective at all times with respect to each Purchaser’s Registrable Securities until the expiration of the Reporting Period. “Reporting Period” means the period commencing on the Closing and for each Purchaser ending on the earliest of: (1) the date as of which such Purchaser may sell all of the Underlying Class A Common Stock under Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions imposed on Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144(b)(2) (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the Securities Act; (2) the fifth anniversary of the Closing, or (3) the date on which such Purchaser shall have sold all of the Underlying Class A Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement. The Company shall ensure that each registration statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading.

(ii) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective at all times during the Reporting Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such registration statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such registration statement.

(iii) Upon request of a Purchaser, the Company shall furnish to such Purchaser without charge copies of any preliminary or final prospectus as such Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.

(iv) Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a registration statement or related prospectus contains a Misstatement (as defined below), each of the Purchasers shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement or related prospectus until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed. “Misstatement” means an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact required to be stated in a registration statement or related prospectus or necessary to make the statements in a registration statement or related prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

16


(v) If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a registration statement contemplated by this Section 5.05 at any time would (a) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure (as defined below), (b) require the inclusion in such registration statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control or (c) in the good faith judgment of the Company’s board of directors, be seriously detrimental to the Company and its holders of capital stock and it is therefore essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at such time, the Company shall have the right, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Purchasers (which notice shall not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such delay or suspension), delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such registration statement for the shortest period of time determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under this Section 5.05(b)(v), the Purchasers agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the prospectus relating to any registration statement contemplated by this Section 5.05 in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until such Purchaser receives written notice from the Company that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents. “Adverse Disclosure” means any public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure, in the good faith judgment of the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, after consultation with counsel to the Company, (i) would be required to be made in any registration statement or prospectus in order for the applicable registration statement or prospectus not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein (in the case of any prospectus and any preliminary prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time if the registration statement were not being filed, declared effective or used, as the case may be and (iii) the Company has a bona fide business purpose for not making such information public.

(c) With a view to making available to the Purchasers the benefits of Rule 144 (or its successor rule) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Purchasers to sell shares of Class A Common Stock to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) six months after such date as all of the Registrable Securities may be sold without restriction by the holders thereof pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as there are no longer Registrable Securities; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1934 Act; and (iii) furnish electronically to each Purchaser upon request, as long as such Purchaser owns any Registrable Securities, (A) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act, (B) a copy of or electronic access to the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail such Purchaser of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration.

 

17


(d) The Company and each Purchaser that is party to that certain Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement dated as of September 1, 2021(the “Registration Rights Agreement”) acknowledges and agrees that the Underlying Class A Common Stock acquired by such Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall constitute “Registrable Securities” for purposes of the Registration Rights Agreement and such Underlying Class A Common Stock shall be included in the registration statement contemplated by Section 5.05(a) of this Agreement.

Section 5.06 NYSE Listing. From the date hereof until such time as the Underlying Class A Common Stock have been sold pursuant to Rule 144 or are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b)(1) or any successor provision, the Company will take such reasonable action as is necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Class A Common Stock on the NYSE and, in accordance, therewith, will take all actions necessary to comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such market or exchange, as applicable. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Class A Common Stock traded on any other trading market, it will then include in such application all of the Class A Common Stock and the Underlying Class A Common Stock and will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Class A Common Stock and the Underlying Class A Common Stock to be listed or quoted on such other trading market as promptly as possible. The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Class A Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.

Section 5.07 Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent to issue to the Purchasers (or in such nominee’s name(s) as designated by a Purchaser) book-entry notations representing the shares of Class A Common Stock set forth next to such Purchaser’s name on the Schedule of Purchasers (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) and, upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants pursuant to their terms, the Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent to issue to the Purchasers (or in such nominee’s name(s) as designated by a Purchaser), book-entry notations representing the Underlying Class A Common Stock (the “Warrant Share Instructions”). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions and the Warrant Share Instructions referred to in this Section 5.07 (or instructions that are consistent therewith) will be given by the Company to its transfer agent in connection with this Agreement and that the Underlying Class A Common Stock shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and applicable law. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 5.07 will cause irreparable harm to a Purchaser. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5.07 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5.07, that a Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

 

18


Section 5.08 Reservation of Class A Common Stock. The Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance from and after the Closing Date, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants issued at the Closing (without taking into account any limitations on exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants set forth therein).

Section 5.09 Subsequent Equity Sales. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that no controlled affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the 1933 Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Class A Common Stock in a manner that would require the registration under the 1933 Act of the sale of the Class A Common Stock to the Purchasers. The Company shall not take any action or steps that would adversely affect reliance by the Company in any material respect on Section 4(a)(2) for the exemption from registration for the transactions contemplated hereby or require registration of the Class A Common Stock under the 1933 Act.

Section 5.10 Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices. In the event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Class A Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Class A Common Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Closing, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of shares or a price per share shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately account for such event.

Section 5.11 Stockholder Approval.

(a) Immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and in lieu of calling a meeting of the Company’s stockholders, the Company shall (i) submit a stockholder written consent, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Stockholder Written Consent”), to LL Capital Partners I, L.P., SIF V, LLC, First American Financial Corporation and Brian Bair (the “Majority Stockholders”) and (ii) obtain the Stockholder Written Consent, duly executed by the Majority Stockholders and duly delivered to the Company in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, from the Majority Stockholders before 9:00 a.m. New York time, on the day immediately following the date of this Agreement.

(b) Within twenty (20) business days after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall file with the SEC a preliminary information statement in accordance with Regulation 14C promulgated under of the Exchange Act (such preliminary information statement and any revised or definitive information statement, the “Information Statement”) relating to the Stockholder Approval. Each Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in the preparation of the preliminary Information Statement, the definitive Information Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto and shall promptly furnish to the Company the information relating to such Purchaser required by the Exchange Act for inclusion therein. The

 

19


Company shall respond as promptly as practicable to any comments of the SEC with respect to the Information Statement and to cause the Information Statement in definitive form to be mailed to the holders of shares of the Class A Common Stock entitled thereto as promptly as reasonably practicable after (i) the tenth (10th) calendar day after the initial filing of the preliminary Information Statement with the SEC if by such date the SEC has not informed the Company that it intends to review the Information Statement or (ii) if the SEC has, by the tenth (10th) calendar day after the filing of the initial preliminary Information Statement with the SEC, informed the Company that it intends to review the Information Statement, the date on which the SEC confirms that it has no further comments on the Information Statement. If required, the Company shall mail to the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock entitled thereto, as promptly as reasonably practicable, any amendment or supplement. If at any time prior to the Closing any event shall occur, or fact or information shall be discovered, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Information Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall as promptly as practicable notify the other parties hereto and the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendment or supplement, in consultation with and subject to review by each Purchaser and its counsel as promptly as practicable and, to the extent required by law, cause such amendment or supplement to be disseminated to the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock entitled thereto.

All covenants and agreements contained herein shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

Section 6.02 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser, its partners, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and duly authorized agents, and each person or entity, if any, who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (a “Control Person”), from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability, together with reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and costs and expenses of expert witnesses and investigation), and any action in respect thereof to which such Purchaser and its Control Persons becomes subject to, resulting from, arising out of or relating to (i) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, except to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense is attributable solely to the willful misconduct or fraud of such Purchaser or its Control Persons or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5.05 of this Agreement or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser expressly for use therein.

 

20


Section 6.03 Indemnification by the Purchaser. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Control Persons, from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability, together with reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and costs and expenses of expert witnesses and investigation), and any action in respect thereof to which the Company and its Control Persons becomes subject to, resulting from, arising out of or relating to (i) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, except to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense is attributable to the willful misconduct or fraud of the Company or its Control Persons or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5.05 of this Agreement or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the liability of a Purchaser shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Purchaser from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to any such registration statement.

Section 6.04 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

21


(b) The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or Control Persons and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Purchaser participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Purchaser’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

(c) If the indemnification provided under this Section 6.04 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of a Purchaser under this Section 6.04 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Purchaser in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article 6, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.04 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6.04. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 6.04 from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Offerpad Announces $90 Million Private Placement

CHANDLER, Ariz. – February 1, 2023 – Business Wire – Offerpad Solutions Inc. (“Offerpad”, “Company”) (NYSE: OPAD), a leading real estate tech company built to simplify home buying and selling, announced today that it has entered into subscription agreements with a group of private investors, together with CEO Brian Bair and existing stockholders Roberto Sella and First American Financial Corporation, to purchase an aggregate of 160,742,959 prefunded warrants to purchase Offerpad’s Class A common stock. Each warrant was sold at a price of $0.5599 per warrant, with an initial exercise price of $0.0001 per warrant, subject to certain customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions, and was calculated based on a 20% discount to the 5-day closing price average on January 27, 2023.

The issuance of the shares of Class A common stock has been approved by Offerpad stockholders representing more than a majority of the voting power of the Company’s common stock, and Offerpad will prepare and file a related information statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The pre-funded warrants will not be exercisable until at least 21 days after the definitive information statement is filed with the SEC or such later time as is necessary to comply with the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange.

The Company plans to use the proceeds from the private placement for general corporate purposes.

The pre-funded warrants and the shares of Offerpad’s Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are being issued and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration provided for under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and neither the pre-funded warrants nor the shares of Offerpad’s Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants have been registered under the Securities Act. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States, except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Offerpad has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the resale of the shares of its Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants issued and sold in the private placement.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release may be considered forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Offerpad’s future financial or operating performance. For example, statements regarding the closing of Offerpad’s private placement and Offerpad’s use of proceeds from the private placement, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “pro forma,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “project,” “strive,” “budget,” “forecast,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Offerpad and its management, are inherently uncertain. Nothing in this press release should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Offerpad does not undertake any duty to update these forward-looking statements.
