(1) Based on 59,107,191 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 14, 2015, as disclosed in the prospectus supplement dated September 15, 2015, which was filed by the Issuer with the SEC on September 17, 2015.


This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D amends and/or restates the Schedule 13D initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 11, 2014 (as amended or amended and restated thereby and hereby, the “Schedule 13D”), and relates to the beneficial ownership by the Reporting Persons (as defined in the Schedule 13D) of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“On September 21, 2015, certain stockholders of the Issuer sold an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock, including 1,390,186 shares of Common Stock sold by the Reporting Persons, in an underwritten public offering (the “September 2015 Resale Offering”) as contemplated by the underwriting agreement by and among Barclays, WCAS X, WCAS Capital IV, Ernest Group, SR-EGI, WK-EGI, Mr. York, Lenox Capital, Mr. Levenson and certain other selling stockholders (collectively, the “September Selling Stockholders”) and set forth in a final prospectus supplement dated September 15, 2015, filed by the Issuer with the SEC on September 17, 2015, which supplements the prospectus dated May 14, 2015 contained in the Shelf Registration Statement.

The September 2015 Resale Offering closed on September 21, 2015. The number of shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons gives effect to the September 2015 Resale Offering.

In connection with the September 2015 Resale Offering, each September Selling Stockholder entered into a lock-up agreement pursuant to which, subject to certain exceptions, such September Selling Stockholder agreed not to, for a period of 45 days, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Barclays, (i) offer for sale, sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) any shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by such September Selling Stockholder in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of any options or warrants) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive shares of, Common Stock, (ii) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, (iii) cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Common Stock or any of the Issuer’s other securities, or (iv) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.

Each of the lock-up agreements contains certain exceptions, including the disposition of shares of Common Stock purchased in open market transactions after the completion of the September 2015 Resale Offering, certain bona fide gifts, sales, transfers or other dispositions of shares of any class of Common Stock, including by will or intestacy, made exclusively between and among the September Selling Stockholder and members of the September Selling Stockholder’s family or certain other persons, and the adoption of a Rule 10b5-1 sales plan; provided, in certain cases, that no filing shall be required under the Exchange Act and the September Selling Stockholder agrees not to make any filing or public announcement in connection with the transfer or disposition during the 45-day lock-up period.

Effective August 11, 2015, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Mr. Richison completed the transfer of 425,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to his Former Spouse. The number of shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by Mr. Richison gives effect to this transaction.”

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“(a)-(b) Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor anything herein shall be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D.

Each Reporting Person may be deemed to be a member of a group with respect to the Issuer or securities of the Issuer for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act. Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor anything herein shall be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section


13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose, (i) acting (or has agreed or is agreeing to act) with any other person as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities of the Issuer or otherwise with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer or (ii) a member of any syndicate or group with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer.

As of September 21, 2015, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock set forth in the table below:

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“The information set forth in Item 4 is incorporated by reference into this Item 6.

As a result of the Stockholders’ Agreement, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a member of a group with each of WCAS X, WCASM, WCAS Capital IV and each of the other Reporting Persons with respect to the Issuer or securities of the Issuer for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Each of the Reporting Persons has granted an irrevocable proxy in favor of WCAS X Associates, LLC and, for so long as Mr. Richison is willing to serve as a director of the Issuer, each of the other Reporting Persons will not have the power to select the representative of a majority of the shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons. Because Mr. Richison is still willing to serve as a director of the Issuer, each of Ms. Rowe, Messrs. Kerber, York, and Levenson, Ernest Group, The Ruby Group, SR-EGI, WK-EGI, ELK Trust, SLY Trust, and Lenox Capital expressly disclaims membership in any such group. Each of the Reporting Persons declares that neither the filing of this statement nor anything herein or previously filed on the Schedule 13D shall be construed as an admission that such person is or was, for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose, (i) acting (or has agreed or is agreeing to act) with any other person as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate, or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of securities of the Issuer or otherwise with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer or (ii) a member of any syndicate or group with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer.

2015 Restricted Stock Award Agreements

On July 8, 2015, the Issuer’s board of directors approved and adopted new forms of restricted stock award agreements for grants of restricted stock under the Paycom Software, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”), including (a) a new form of restricted stock award agreement for awards to the chief executive officer of the Issuer (the “CEO Enterprise RSA”) and (b) a new form of restricted stock award agreement for awards to certain executives of the Issuer (the “Enterprise RSA”). The CEO Enterprise RSA and the Enterprise RSA are together referred to as the “Restricted Stock Award Agreements.” On July 8, 2015, the Issuer’s board of directors granted restricted stock awards to each of the Issuer’s executive officers as part of its equity compensation program, including 140,000 shares of restricted stock to Mr. Richison under the LTIP and subject to the terms and conditions of the CEO Enterprise RSA and 40,000 shares of restricted stock to each of Messrs. Kerber and York under the LTIP and subject to the terms and conditions of the Enterprise RSA.

Each of the Restricted Stock Award Agreements sets forth the specific vesting conditions, risk of forfeiture and terms regarding delivery of shares of Common Stock underlying the awards. Under each of the Restricted Stock Award Agreements, one hundred percent (100%) of the shares of restricted stock not previously vested will vest upon a change in control (as defined in the LTIP) if the award is not assumed by the surviving entity, and all shares of restricted stock not previously vested will immediately become vested in full upon a recipient’s termination of service (as defined in the LTIP) as a result of the recipient’s death or total and permanent disability (as defined in the LTIP). Under the Restricted Stock Award Agreements, each recipient will have, with respect to awarded shares of restricted stock, all rights of a stockholder of the Issuer, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive any dividends thereon, except that they may only dispose of the awarded shares to the extent that they have vested.

For purposes of the Restricted Stock Award Agreements, “total enterprise value” is defined as the sum of: (a) the product of (i) the arithmetic average of the volume weighted average price of a share of Common Stock not subject to vesting or other restrictions on each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date multiplied by (ii) the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, less (A) the number of outstanding shares of restricted stock or other awards of shares of Common Stock without vesting restrictions, in each case, issued after the date of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement (including outstanding shares of Common Stock resulting from the vesting of such restricted stock), and less (B) the number of shares of Common Stock issued by the Issuer after the date of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement in connection with any merger, consolidation, share exchange or other transaction in which, in each case, the Issuer acquires voting securities of another person or all or any portion of another person’s assets; (b) for each other class or series of equity


securities of the Issuer, if any, the product of (i) the arithmetic average of the volume weighted average price per share for such class or series of such equity securities of the Issuer on each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of such class or series of such equity securities of the Issuer, less (A) the number of shares of such class or series of such equity securities issued under the LTIP (or otherwise issued for compensatory purposes) after the date of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement, and less (B) the number of shares of such class or series of such equity securities issued by the Issuer after the date of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement in connection with any merger, consolidation, share exchange or other transaction in which, in each case, the Issuer acquires the voting securities of another person or all or any portion of another person’s assets; and (c) the principal amount of the outstanding funded indebtedness less the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents of the Issuer (exclusive of funds held on behalf of clients). Except as otherwise provided above, the Issuer’s total enterprise value includes outstanding shares of restricted stock and calculates the value of such shares as if there were no vesting or other restrictions.

Under the Restricted Stock Award Agreements, (a) fifty percent (50%) of the shares of restricted stock will vest on the first date, if any, that the Issuer reaches a total enterprise value of $2.65 billion and (b) the remaining fifty percent (50%) of the shares of restricted stock will vest on the first date, if any, that the Issuer reaches a total enterprise value of $3.50 billion, provided that the recipient is employed by, or providing services to, the Issuer or a subsidiary on the applicable vesting date. Under the CEO Enterprise RSA, if the chief executive officer’s employment is terminated by the Issuer without cause (as defined in his employment agreement), all unvested shares of restricted stock subject to market-based vesting conditions will remain outstanding and eligible for vesting for one (1) year following such termination of employment, and any shares of restricted stock that do not become vested within the one (1) year period immediately following the termination will be immediately forfeited and will cease to be outstanding.

The foregoing descriptions of restricted stock award agreements to which certain Reporting Persons are parties are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Restricted Stock Award Agreement for Executives with Employment Agreements, Form of Restricted Stock Award Agreement for Chief Executive Officer, Form of CEO Enterprise RSA, and Form of Enterprise RSA, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.6, 99.7, 99.8 and 99.9 and are incorporated herein by reference.”
