(“SBG”) and SoftBank Vision Fund (AIV M1) L.P. (“Vision Fund” and, with SBG, “SoftBank”), upon knowledge as to itself and information and belief as to all other matters, alleges as follows: NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. On October 22, 2019, SBG, its affiliate Vision Fund, the Company, We Holdings LLC, and the Company’s co-founder and former CEO Adam Neumann entered into a Master Transaction Agreement, as amended on December 27, 2019 (the “MTA”).1 The MTA provided for a series of transactions, including a debt financing arrangement and the accelerated funding of an existing $1.5 billion warrant agreement among SoftBank and the Company. 2. The centerpiece bargained-for benefit to be received by the Company’s minority stockholders in the MTA was a tender offer, through which SoftBank would purchase up to $3 billion worth of the Company’s stock held by the Company’s stockholders (the “Tender Offer”). The Committee viewed the Tender Offer as a critical component of the MTA because it provided much-needed liquidity to the Company’s minority stockholders—many of whom are longtime Company employees who depended upon receiving value for their shares.
