Intersections, Inc., Owner of Consumer Security Platform Identity Guard, Signs Definitive Agreement

BURLINGTON, Mass. and CHANTILLY, Va., Intersections Inc. (“Intersections”) (NASDAQ: INTX), a theft protection and privacy services company based in Chantilly, VA, and WC SACD One Parent, Inc. (“WC SACD”), a new joint venture entity formed by iSubscribed, WndrCo and General Catalyst, today announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement for the acquisition of Intersections by WC SACD.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, a subsidiary of WC SACD will commence shortly an all-cash tender offer to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Intersections for $3.68 per share. The transaction has been unanimously approved by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Intersections comprised of independent and disinterested directors. Certain affiliates of Intersections have agreed, subject to customary conditions, not to tender a majority of their shares into the tender offer, but to roll over such shares in the transaction into an affiliate of WC SACD. Such affiliates have also entered into tender and support agreements with WC SACD pursuant to which they have, among other things, agreed to tender to WC SACD in the offer the shares of Intersections stock that they are not rolling over in the transaction. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the expiration of the applicable period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and a minimum tender condition that requires the tender of both more than 50 percent of Intersections’ outstanding shares and more than 50 percent of Intersections’ outstanding shares held by stockholders other than directors, executive officers, and rollover participants. The transaction is not subject to any financing contingency. Following the tender offer, WC SACD will effect a second-step merger, pursuant to Section 251(h) of Delaware’s corporate law, for all remaining Intersections shares at the same per share consideration. The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2019, at which time Hari Ravichandran, the CEO and Founder of iSubscribed, is expected to assume the role of CEO of Intersections. It is also expected that shortly after the closing of the acquisition of Intersections by WC SACD, subject to certain conditions, iSubscribed will be merged into WC SACD to combine businesses with Intersections.

In connection with entry into the merger agreement, WC SACD, together with certain existing noteholders of Intersections (who exchanged their existing notes for the New Notes), acquired approximately $34 million of senior secured convertible notes of Intersections (the “New Notes”) at a conversion price of $2.27 per share, the proceeds of which will be used by Intersections to repay in full its existing term loan facility with PEAK6 Investments, L.P. and related transaction costs, and for general working capital purposes.

The vision of iSubscribed and WC SACD is that iSubscribed, through its Intrusta brand and the pending combination with Intersections, will create a unified digital threat protection platform that uses adaptive technology to make it easy for consumers to manage disparate cybersecurity needs. With the addition of Intersections’ Identity Guard® comprehensive identity theft protection solutions, WC SACD and iSubscribed expect the transaction to enhance Intrusta’s digital threat protection offerings beyond antivirus and accelerate growth, expanding its customer base by more than a million users.

“The rapid adoption of internet and sensor-enabled technologies in the consumer space has introduced new challenges and risks in the already complex and fragmented digital security landscape,” said Ravichandran, on behalf of WC SACD. “Intersections’ Identity Guard® consumer identity protection services will be a great addition for Intrusta as we look to expand and grow our cybersecurity solutions and build a simple and unified consumer-centric platform.”

For Intersections, the transaction is expected to offer enhanced financial and operational scale. “This acquisition is expected to create value and new opportunities for both our team and our customers while providing Intersections with the necessary capital for growth,” said Michael R. Stanfield, Executive Chairman and President of Intersections.

PJ SOLOMON acted as lead financial advisor for iSubscribed. North Point Advisors LLC acted as independent financial advisor for the Special Board Committee of Intersections. Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP served as counsel to WC SACD, Ropes & Gray LLP served as counsel to General Catalyst, Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP and Venable LLC served as counsel to Intersections, McDermott Will & Emery LLP served as counsel to iSubscribed and Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP served as counsel to the Special Board Committee of Intersections.
