This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 6, 2018 (the “Original 13D” and, together with this Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Perspecta Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”). |
Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following: | |
Pursuant to the standstill obligations under the Side Letter Agreement disclosed in the Original 13D, Veritas Capital Management is prohibited from making any offer to acquire shares of Common Stock it does not already own. On January 6, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), the Company granted Veritas Capital Management a limited waiver from certain of these standstill obligations (the “Limited Standstill Waiver”). Under the Limited Standstill Waiver, Veritas Capital Management will be permitted to make confidential offers or proposals to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) with respect to an acquisition, including a potential cash acquisition of all of the shares of Common Stock it does not already own (a “Potential Transaction”). Except for certain limited provisions, the Limited Standstill Waiver will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the date 60 days from the Effective Date, at which time all standstill obligations under the Side Letter Agreement will again apply in accordance with the terms of the Side Letter Agreement. | |
In connection with exploring a Potential Transaction, Veritas Capital Management has been granted access to initial due diligence materials from the Company, engaged financial and legal advisers and is in preliminary discussions with the Company regarding a Potential Transaction. Veritas Capital Management plans to engage in confidential discussions and negotiations with the Company, members of management, and the Board regarding the Potential Transaction. Veritas Capital also plans to engage in confidential discussions with potential debt and equity financing sources, and other third parties regarding the Potential Transaction. If such a Potential Transaction were to occur, one or more of the transactions, events or actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D may result, including, without limitation, an acquisition of additional securities of the Company or an extraordinary corporate transaction (such as a merger) involving the Company, and the shares of Common Stock would no longer be publicly traded and would be eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act. | |
While Veritas Capital Management currently intends to submit a bid for such transaction, any final decision by Veritas Capital Management to proceed with a Potential Transaction will be subject to the completion of its due diligence review, agreement with the Company on definitive terms and documentation with respect to a Potential Transaction and receipt of internal approvals, among other things. Veritas Capital Management ultimately may decide not to pursue a Potential Transaction, and even if Veritas Capital Management does pursue a Potential Transaction, it may be unable to negotiate and execute a definitive agreement with the Company for a Potential Transaction (for example, if it is unable to reach agreement with the Company on the price per share of Common Stock to be paid). |
