Introduction
As previously reported, on October 28, 2025, Jamf Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Jawbreaker Parent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Jawbreaker Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Francisco Partners Management, L.P. (“Francisco Partners”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on January 30, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company that was issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock, owned by Parent or any of its subsidiaries (including Merger Sub), or any shares of Common Stock as to which appraisal rights were properly exercised in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”)) was automatically cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $13.05, without interest thereon (the “Per Share Price”).
At the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of Common Stock that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Company Option”) was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes, equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Price over the exercise price per share of such Company Option.
At the Effective Time, each award of restricted stock units of the Company that had vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Company RSU”) or that had vested in accordance with its terms as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (a “Vested Company RSU”) was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes, equal to the product of (i) the Per Share Price and (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Vested Company RSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.
At the Effective Time, each Company RSU that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time that was not a Vested Company RSU (an “Unvested Company RSU”) was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the Per Share Price and (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company RSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.
The foregoing descriptions of the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 30, 2025 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Supplemental Indenture
On the Closing Date, the Company, Jamf Software, LLC and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association, the “Convertible Notes Trustee”), entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of January 30, 2026, which supplements the Indenture, dated as of September 17, 2021 (the “Base Indenture” and, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, Jamf Software, LLC and the Convertible Notes Trustee, governing the Company’s 0.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”), of which approximately $373.75 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding on January 29, 2026.
The Supplemental Indenture provides that each holder of outstanding Convertible Notes (a “Holder”) has the right to convert its Convertible Notes into $13.05 in cash in respect of each share of Common Stock into which the Convertible Notes would have otherwise been convertible in accordance with the applicable conversion rate under the Base Indenture.
In addition and in lieu of the conversion right described above, in connection with the Merger, on or around March 2, 2026, Holders will have the right, pursuant to Section 15.02 of the Base Indenture, at their option, to require the Company to repurchase their Convertible Notes at a future repurchase date, which is expected to be April 20, 2026 (“Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”), for a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date.
As a result of the Merger, Holders who do not elect to require the Company to repurchase their Convertible Notes will maintain the right to convert their Convertible Notes at any time during the period that begins on the Effective Date and ends at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date.
