| --- | --- |

(a) Market Information

Our Units began trading on the NYSE under the symbol “GSAH.U” on June 8, 2018. On July 27, 2018, we announced that holders of our Units could elect to separately trade the Class A common stock and Warrants included in the Units. On July 30, 2018, our Class A common stock and Warrants began trading on the NYSE under the symbols “GSAH” and “GSAH.WS,” respectively. Each Unit includes one-third of one redeemable Warrant, and each whole Warrant excercisable the holder to purchase one Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in our final prospectus dated June 7, 2018 which was filed with the SEC on June 8, 2018. Only whole Warrants will be issued on separation of Units, and only whole Warrants may be traded and be exercised for Class A common stock. The Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or 12 months after the Closing Date. Our Warrants expire five years after the completion of our Initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation as described in “Item 1. Business.”

(b) Holders

As of March 11, 2019 there was one holder of record of our Units, one holder of record of our separately traded Class A common stock, and two holders of record of our Warrants.

(c) Dividends

We have not paid any cash dividends on our Class A common stock to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of our Initial Business Combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of our Initial Business Combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to our Initial Business Combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring stock dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, if we incur any indebtedness in connection with our Business Combination, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

(d) Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

None.

Use of Proceeds

On June 12, 2018, we consummated the Public Offering of 69,000,000 Units, including the issuance of 9,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional Units in full. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of our company, par value $0.0001 per share, and one-third of one redeemable warrant of our company. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share, and only whole warrants are exercisable. The warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of our Initial Business Combination and 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering, and will expire five years after the completion of our Initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Subject to certain terms and conditions, we may redeem the warrants either for cash once the warrants become exercisable or for shares of our Class A Common Stock commencing 90 days after the warrants become exercisable.

The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to our company of $690,000,000. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC served as the sole book-running manager for the offering, and Deutsche Bank Securities served as co-manager. The securities sold in the Public Offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-225035). The SEC declared the registration statements effective on June 7, 2018.

We paid a total of $13,800,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $907,949 for other costs and expenses related to the Public Offering. The underwriters agreed to defer an additional $24,150,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, payable upon consummation of our Initial Business Combination. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, an underwriter in the Public Offering, and an affiliate of us and our Sponsor (which Sponsor beneficially owns more than 10% of our common stock) received a portion of the underwriting discounts and commissions related to the Public Offering. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions (excluding the deferred portion of $24,150,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, which will be released from the Trust Account upon consummation of Initial Business Combination, if consummated) and incurred offering costs, the total net proceeds from our Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was $691,092,051, of which $690,000,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the Public Offering) was placed in the Trust Account. We also repaid $300,000 in non-interest bearing loans made to us by our Sponsor to cover expenses related to the Public Offering. Other than as described above, no payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates.
