Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an
Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On December 28, 2018, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cision Ltd.
(the “Company”), Canyon Valor Companies, Inc., the borrower, entered into an incremental facility amendment (the “Incremental
Amendment”) to the credit agreement with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent,
and a syndicate of commercial lenders from time to time party thereto dated as of June 16, 2016, as amended (the “Credit
Agreement”). As a result of the Incremental Amendment, available borrowings under the revolving credit facility under the
Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) was increased from $75.0 million to $100.0 million. Borrowings under
the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% for dollar borrowings and EURIBOR plus 3.0%
for Euro borrowings, and the Revolving Credit Facility matures on June 16, 2021.
The foregoing description of the Incremental Amendment does
not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement. A copy of the Incremental
Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
On January 3, 2019, the Company and certain of its wholly owned
subsidiaries (collectively, the “Buyers”) entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”)
pursuant to which the Buyers acquired all of the outstanding capital stock (the “Acquisition”) of Falcon.io ApS, a
Danish limited liability company (“Target”). Consideration for the acquisition was comprised of (i) cash consideration
of approximately $63.3 million and (ii) an aggregate of 5.3 million ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share
(the “Shares”), which were issued to the equityholders of Target. The cash portion of the consideration was funded
with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company drew approximately $40.0 million
of dollar borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility in connection with the closing of the Acquisition.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity
Securities.
The description set forth under Item 2.03 of this Current Report
on Form 8-K related to the issuance of Shares in connection with the Acquisition is incorporated into this Item 3.02 by reference.
The issuance of the Shares under the Purchase Agreement will
be made in reliance upon the exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and the regulations promulgated thereunder and pursuant to Regulation S promulgated
thereunder. The Company will rely on these exemptions from registration based in part on representations made by Target and its
equityholders. No underwriters were involved in the issuance of the Shares.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On January 3, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing
the signing of the Purchase Agreement and the completion of the Acquisition of Falcon.io ApS, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit
99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Falcon.io ApS had revenues of approximately $27 million for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2018.
The information set forth in this Item 7.01 of this Current
Report on Form 8-K and in Exhibit 99.1 is being furnished hereby and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section
18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities
of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and regardless of any general incorporation
language in such filings, except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in such filings. The inclusion of this
information in Item 7.01 shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information herein that is required to be
disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD.
