Item 1.01    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Stock Purchase Agreement
On October 26, 2021, Trans Union LLC (the “Company”), a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of TransUnion, a Delaware corporation, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with nThrive, Inc. (the “Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation backed by Clearlake Capital Group L.P. (the “Sponsor”) and its affiliated funds, pursuant to which, among other matters, the Company has agreed to sell its healthcare revenue cycle management and data analytics insights business (referred to herein as the “Business”) to the Purchaser for an aggregate purchase price of $1.735 billion, subject to customary adjustments as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement relating to working capital, cash, indebtedness and transaction expenses of the Business (the “Transaction”).
The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that the closing of the Transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including, among other things, (i) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and (ii) the absence of any law or governmental order enjoining, making illegal or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transaction. The Company is targeting a closing of the Transaction in the fourth quarter of 2021, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such customary closing conditions.
The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants from the Company and the Purchaser. Between the date of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the closing of the Transaction, subject to certain exceptions, the Company has agreed to conduct, and to cause its relevant subsidiaries to conduct, the Business in the ordinary course of business in all material respects and to keep intact the business organizations and goodwill of the Business.
The representations and warranties made by each party were made solely for the benefit of the other party and (i) were not intended to be treated as categorical statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk between the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement if those statements prove to be inaccurate; (ii) may have been qualified in the Stock Purchase Agreement by disclosures that were made to the other party in disclosure schedules to the Stock Purchase Agreement; (iii) may apply contract standards of “materiality” that are different from “materiality” under the applicable securities laws; and (iv) were made only as of the date of the Stock Purchase Agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Stock Purchase Agreement.
The Stock Purchase Agreement does not contain indemnification provisions related to the representations and warranties in the agreement, and the representations and warranties of the parties will not survive post-closing.
Either party has the right to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement under certain circumstances. Those circumstances include (i) mutual consent; (ii) as a result of a non-appealable governmental action or law under applicable antitrust laws that permanently enjoins or otherwise prohibits the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement; (iii) failure to consummate the Transaction by April 26, 2022 (the “Outside Date”); or (iv) as a result of certain material breaches by either party of its representations, warranties, agreements or covenants contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement if such breach has not been cured, if curable, within the earlier of thirty (30) days after notice of such breach and one (1) business day prior to the Outside Date.
The Purchaser has obtained equity commitments from certain funds affiliated with the Sponsor and a debt financing commitment (the “Debt Financing”) from a group of debt financing sources led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
The Purchaser is required to pay the Company a termination fee of $112.775 million (the “Reverse Termination Fee”) if the Stock Purchase Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement. Certain funds affiliated with the Sponsor have agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Purchaser under the Stock Purchase Agreement to pay the Reverse Termination Fee and related costs of collection, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a limited guaranty in favor the Company.



The foregoing summary of the Stock Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Stock Purchase Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to TransUnion's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
