Note: Schedules filed in paper format shall include a signed original and five copies of the schedule, including all exhibits. See §240 13d-7 for other parties to whom copies are to be sent.

The information required on the remainder of this cover page shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purpose of section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the Act but shall be subject to all other provisions of the Act (however, see the Notes).

The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant.

This Statement on Schedule 13D (this “Statement”) relates to shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of LiveVox Holdings, Inc. (“LiveVox” or the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 655 Montgomery Street, Suite 1000, San Francisco, California, 94111.

(a) This Statement is filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by Golden Gate Private Equity, Inc. (the “Reporting Person”). The Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the reported securities which are directly held by LiveVox TopCo LLC (“LiveVox TopCo”) on behalf of a private investor group that includes Golden Gate Capital Opportunity Fund, L.P., Golden Gate Capital Opportunity Fund-A, L.P., GGCOF Executive Co-Invest, L.P., GGCOF Third-Party Co-Invest, L.P., and GGCOF IRA Co-Invest, L.P. (collectively, the “Funds”), each of which are managed by the Reporting Person.

On June 18, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), LiveVox (formerly known as Crescent Acquisition Corp), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated January 13, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Function Acquisition I Corp, a Delaware corporation and direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), Function Acquisition II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), LiveVox Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Old LiveVox”), and GGC Services Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation, solely in its capacity as the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact (in such capacity, the “Stockholder Representative”) of LiveVox TopCo (the sole stockholder of Old LiveVox prior to the Business Combination), which provided for, among other things, (a) the merger of First Merger Sub with and into Old LiveVox, with Old LiveVox continuing as the surviving corporation (the “First Merger”), and (b) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the merger of Old LiveVox with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, (a) the Company changed its name to “LiveVox Holdings, Inc.” and (b) Second Merger Sub, as the surviving entity of the Second Merger, changed its name to “LiveVox Intermediate LLC” (“LiveVox Intermediate”). As a result of the Business Combination, the Company directly owns all of the equity interests of LiveVox Intermediate and indirectly owns the equity interests of its subsidiaries (LiveVox Intermediate together with its subsidiaries, “LiveVox”).

Additionally, to further enhance liquidity by increasing cash available to the combined company following the closing of the Business Combination, the parties to the Merger Agreement also agreed that any merger consideration that would otherwise be payable in cash pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement would instead be payable in stock. As a result, the consideration paid to LiveVox TopCo consisted of 66,637,092 newly issued shares of Common Stock plus 5,000,000 newly issued shares of Common Stock (the “Earn-Out Shares”) which were placed in an escrow account to be released only if the price of Common Stock trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) exceeds certain thresholds during the seven-year period following the closing of the Business Combination pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. As manager of LiveVox TopCo, the Reporting Person will have the right to vote the Earn-Out Shares during the time that they are held in the escrow account. As such, giving effect to the Business Combination and related transactions, the Reporting Person will have beneficial ownership of 71,637,092 shares of Common Stock.

A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 18, 2021 and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

(b) The principal business address for the Reporting Person is c/o Golden Gate Private Equity, Inc., One Embarcadero Center, 39^th Floor, San Francisco, California 94111.

(c) The principal business of LiveVox TopCo is investing in the securities of the Issuer. The principal business of each of the Funds is that of a private investment fund engaging in the purchase and sale of investments for its own account. The principal business of the Reporting Person is to act as the investment manager of various investment funds and accounts, including the Funds and LiveVox TopCo, with such investment and voting discretion exercised by an investment committee comprised of the managing directors of the Reporting Person (the “Committee”), led by David C. Dominik, the Chief Investment Officer.

(d) During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person, nor to the best of the Reporting Person’s knowledge, any of the persons or entities affiliated with the reporting person, including the individual members of the Committee, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e) During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person, nor to the best of the Reporting Person’s knowledge, any of the persons or entities affiliated with the reporting person, including the individual members of the Committee, has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) The Reporting Person is a Delaware corporation and LiveVox TopCo is a Delaware limited liability company.

Each of the Funds is a private equity fund formed for the purpose of making investments for its own account. The source of funds of LiveVox TopCo is capital committed by the partners of the Funds, who are not themselves necessarily affiliates of the Reporting Person or the Funds.

The Business Combination

In this regard, LiveVox TopCo is entitled to demand that the Company register shares of Common Stock held by the LiveVox TopCo and will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights.

Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the LiveVox Stockholder has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any Common Stock, except as to certain permitted transferees, until the earlier of (A) 180 days following the Closing Date and (B) subsequent to the Closing Date, the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property.

Neither the filing of this Statement nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the Reporting Person, LiveVox TopCo or the Funds that such person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock referred to herein for purposes of the Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

(c) The information set forth in Item 4 is incorporated by reference herein in response to this Item 5(c).
