Re: Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp.
Amendment No. 1 to
Registration Statement on Form S-4
Filed June 28, 2021
File No. 333-256103
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), we submit this letter
setting forth the responses of the Company to the comments provided by the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in its comment
letter dated July 9, 2021 (the “Comment Letter”) with respect to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the Commission by the Company on May 13, 2021
and Amendment No. 1 filed with the Commission on June 28, 2021 (the “Registration Statement”). Concurrently with the filing of this letter, the Company is filing Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment
No. 2”) to the Registration Statement through EDGAR.
For your convenience, we
have set forth each comment of the Staff from the Comment Letter in bold and italics below and provided our response below each comment. All references in this letter to page numbers and captions correspond to the page numbers and captions in
Amendment No. 2. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in Amendment No. 2.

Amendment No. 1 to Form S-4 Filed June 28, 2021
Risk Factors, page 34
1.
We note your updated disclosure on page 155 regarding the pending lawsuit and demands, as well as the
generic discussion under “We may become involved in litigation that may materially adversely affect us” at page 76. Please include a risk factor addressing any material risks associated with the merger-related litigation.
Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on
pages 17 and 80 of Amendment No. 2 to include a risk factor addressing material risks associated with the merger-related litigation.
Recommendation of the BlackSky Board of Directors and Reasons for the Merger, page 250
2.
You state that “The BlackSky board of directors considered that the Key Stockholders entered into
the Stockholder Support Agreements with Osprey, Merger Sub and BlackSky.” You disclose at page 5 that BlackSky’s directors and executive officers “collectively beneficially owned ... approximately 37.48% of BlackSky common stock
outstanding.” In new disclosure at page 14, you state that the Key Stockholders “are expected to beneficially own and be entitled to vote 501,389,456 shares of BlackSky common stock, which represent ... approximately 76.52% of BlackSky
common stock outstanding on the date of the Stockholder Support Agreements,” the form of which you provide as Annex H. That form agreement identifies its purpose as inducing Osprey “to enter into the Merger Agreement and cause the
Transactions to be consummated.”
Please expand your disclosure to identify any members of BlackSky
management who also are among the “Key Stockholders” and to list all holders who beneficially own 10% or more of outstanding BlackSky common stock. Also ensure that the tabular disclosure at page 174 includes all corresponding entries for
the number of shares and percentage held in each case.
Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the
Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages xiii and 173 of Amendment No. 2 to identify the applicable stockholders and revise the tabular disclosure, respectively.
Additional Comments from the Commission
Quorum
and Required Vote for Proposals for the Osprey Special Meeting, page 120
Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp.
July 14, 2021
Page

3.
Please confirm whether you considered the applicability of
Section 251(c) of the DGCL to the transaction.
The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and notes that Section 251(c) provides that, in a merger, the executed merger agreement will be approved by a majority of the outstanding voting rights of each constituent corporation at an annual or
special meeting. Because the contemplated transaction is structured as a reverse subsidiary merger of a subsidiary of Osprey with and into BlackSky, such that Osprey is not a constituent corporation in the merger, Section 251(c) of the DGCL is
not the applicable approval standard with respect to Osprey’s shareholders.
Description of the Transactions, page 95
4.
In the next response letter, provide a brief demonstration of how the amount per share of the
underwriting fee was calculated.
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and notes that
the Registration Statement disclosure on page 95 of Amendment No. 2 provides: “The payment of underwriting fees of $11,068,750 incurred in connection with Osprey’s initial public offering, for which payment was deferred until Osprey
consummated a business combination or similar transaction, which fees amount to approximately (i) $0.08 per share on a pro forma basis (or 0.8% of the value of shares assuming a trading price of $10.00 per share), assuming no redemptions, and (ii)
$0.11 per share on a pro forma basis (or 1.1% of the value of shares assuming a trading price of $10.00 per share), assuming maximum redemptions.”
The per share amount of the underwriting fee was calculated by dividing (a) the total amount of underwriting fees of $11,068,750 by (b)
(i) 132,278,335 shares, which is the total number of shares outstanding on a pro forma basis, assuming no redemptions, and (ii) 105,108,801 shares, which is the total number of shares outstanding on a pro forma basis, assuming maximum redemptions.
This yielded a per share amount of underwriting fees of (i) $0.08 per share on a pro forma basis, assuming no redemptions, and (ii) $0.11 per share on a pro forma basis, assuming maximum redemptions.
The percentage of the value of shares such underwriting fee represents was calculated by dividing (a) the pro forma per share underwriting
fees of (i) $0.08, assuming no redemptions, and (ii) $0.11, assuming maximum redemptions, by (b) the assumed trading price of $10.00 per share. This resulted in underwriting fees representing (i) 0.8% of the value of shares, assuming no
redemptions, and (ii) 1.1% of the value of shares, assuming maximum redemptions.

to resolving any outstanding issues as quickly as possible. Please contact me at (212) 735-2535 should you require further information.

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and,
consistent with the discussion held with the Staff on Monday, June 21, 2021, respectfully provides the following response to clarify why the pro forma statement of operations was adjusted to reflect the impact of transaction bonuses that are
not expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the Company subsequent to consummation of the merger.
The Company notes that,
because its Registration Statement was filed subsequent to January 1, 2021, and the merger has not yet been consummated, the Company has prepared the pro forma financial information included in the Registration Statement in accordance with the
new pro forma rules outlined in the Commission’s Release No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses, which took effect as of January 1, 2021.
The Company notes that under the new pro forma rules – and, more specifically, pursuant to Rule 11-02(a)(6)(i)(B) of Regulation S-X – transaction accounting
adjustments to the pro forma condensed statements of comprehensive income (also referred to herein as the “pro forma statements of operations”) shall include “adjustments that depict in the pro forma condensed
statements of comprehensive income the effects of the pro forma balance sheet adjustments in paragraph (a)(6)(i)(A) of this section assuming those adjustments were made as of the beginning of the fiscal year presented. Such
adjustments must be made whether or not the pro forma balance sheet is presented pursuant to paragraph (c)(1) of this section. If the condition in §210.11-01(a) that is met does not have a
balance sheet effect, then depict the accounting for the transaction required by U.S. GAAP or IFRS-IASB, as applicable.”
The Company acknowledges that pursuant to the legacy pro forma rules, adjustments were only reflected in the pro forma statements of
operations when the event(s) to which such adjustments related met all three of the following criteria:
•
The event was directly attributable to the specific transaction(s) that triggered the presentation of the pro
forma financial information;
•
The event was factually supportable; and
•
The event was expected to have a continuing impact.
However, as this legacy guidance, which was previously outlined in Rule 11-02(b)(6) of Regulation S-X, has been superseded by the guidance in Rule 11-02(a)(6)(i)(B) of Regulation S-X (i.e., as previously cited above), it is the
Company’s understanding that the criteria for the recognition of adjustments in pro forma statements of operations are no longer specifically aligned to the legacy guidance. In reaching this conclusion, the Company considered Section 3 of
the interpretive guidance published on the Commission’s website at https://www.sec.gov/corpfin/financial-disclosures-acquired-disposed-businesses-guidance, which states that “the amendments to Article 11 replace the existing pro forma
adjustment criteria with three types of adjustments: transaction accounting adjustments, autonomous entity adjustments, and management adjustments.”
The Company further acknowledges that Section 3230.4 of the Division of Corporation Finance’s published Financial Reporting Manual
(the “FRM”) continues to include the legacy rules and interpretive guidance regarding when pro forma adjustments should be included in the pro forma condensed statement of comprehensive income. However, the Company has noted that, as of
the date of this response, the Division of Corporation Finance has not updated any portion of the guidance regarding the preparation of a pro forma condensed statement of comprehensive income (i.e., Section 3230 of the FRM) to reflect the rule
changes that took effect as of January 1, 2021. Accordingly, in reaching its conclusions regarding how to appropriately apply the new pro forma rules, the Company also considered interpretive guidance from the following publications of Deloitte
and Ernst & Young (“EY”):
•
Deloitte’s Heads Up publication on June 2, 2020 titled “SEC Issues Final Rule to Improve
Disclosures for Business Acquisitions and Dispositions”; and
•
EY’s Technical Line published on November 6, 2020 titled “Applying the SEC’s new requirements
for significant acquired businesses” (the “EY TechLine”).
The Company notes that Deloitte’s Heads
Up publication states the following regarding changes under the new pro forma rules:
Before adoption of the amendments, adjustments to
the pro forma statement of comprehensive income were expected to have a continuing (or recurring) impact on the registrant. The amendments do not distinguish between adjustments that are deemed recurring and adjustments that are deemed nonrecurring
by management; however, they include a requirement to disclose items that will not recur in the explanatory notes to the pro forma financial information.
Osprey Technology Acquisition Corp.
June 25, 2021
Page

Section 7.4.2 of the EY TechLine further states:
Under the amended rules, a registrant will make transaction accounting adjustments for nonrecurring items (i.e., revenues, expenses, gains
and losses that will not recur in the income of the registrant beyond 12 months after the acquisition) and the related tax effects to the pro forma income statement… The SEC staff has said that transaction accounting adjustments for
nonrecurring items should be made to the annual period because the acquisition is assumed to occur at the beginning of that period, and these items are typically expenses that are recognized in the historical results of the registrant shortly after
the acquisition.
Based upon the interpretive guidance cited above, and consistent with practice in the case of many transactions for
which pro forma financial information has been prepared subsequent to the implementation of the new rules, the Company has concluded that transaction accounting adjustments made to pro forma statements of operations under the new pro forma rules
shall include nonrecurring items that are factually supportable and are directly attributable to the transaction(s) that triggered the presentation of the pro forma information. In addition, in accordance with the interpretive guidance cited above,
the Company has concluded that any adjustments made to the pro forma statements of operations for nonrecurring events shall be included in the annual pro forma income statement period that has been presented, since the transaction(s) that have
triggered the presentation of the pro forma statement(s) of operations have been assumed to have occurred at the beginning of such annual period.
Based upon the conclusions discussed above, the Company has continued to present (1) a pro forma adjustment to reflect the transaction
bonuses that will be triggered by the merger and (2) certain other nonrecurring items in its unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations. All pro forma adjustments that relate to nonrecurring items have been included in the
pro forma information presented for the year ended December 31, 2020. In order to provide additional clarity as to how nonrecurring items that impact the statement of operations have been treated in connection with the preparation of the pro
forma financial information, the Company has expanded its disclosures in the “Basis of Pro Forma Presentation” discussions in both the introductory paragraphs and “NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION” to the pro forma
financial statements to include the following language:
“Nonrecurring pro forma adjustments that impact the pro forma income of
the combined company have been recorded to the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, as the Transactions are assumed to have occurred on January 1, 2020 for purposes of presenting pro
forma income statement information.”

Risk Factors “Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide. . . “, page 55 1. We note your disclosure that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation matters. We also note your disclosure in Exhibit 3.1(d) that this provision excludes “any action arising under the federal securities laws, . . . [where] the Court of Chancery and the federal district court for the District of Delaware shall have concurrent jurisdiction” and does not apply to “suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.” Please clearly disclose in your filing, here and on page 124, how your exclusive forum clause applies to actions arising under the federal securities laws, including that state and federal courts shall have concurrent jurisdiction. As a related matter, we note your disclosure that you may incur additional costs if a court were to find the provision to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Please amend your disclosure to discuss whether there is any specific question regarding the enforceability of the provision. In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the disclosure on pages 55-56 and pages 124-125 to disclose that state and federal courts will have concurrent jurisdiction for actions arising under the Securities Act, and the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce duties and liabilities created by the Exchange Act or any other claims for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Additionally, we have revised the disclosure on pages 55-56 to note that we believe the risk of a court declining to enforce the choice of forum provision contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation is low. * * * * * 2 If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact Mark Rosenstein, the Company’s legal counsel, at (215) 731-9450.

Prospectus Summary
Our Company, page 2
1.Please revise to ensure that the disclosure you provide regarding management's experience
is appropriately balanced, and includes disclosure of any relevant transactions or business
ventures that generated losses for investors, to the extent applicable. Please also revise to
include the returns to date for public shareholders that purchased shares in the Osprey I
IPO, and include a recent trading price for the FLMN common stock.
2.Please provide additional disclosure about the basis for your statement that management

has "successfully deployed capital in all market cycles" and provide additional disclosure
about how management measures and defines this success.
Permitted purchases of public shares by our affiliates, page 15
3.Please revise your disclosure to clarify that one purpose and effect of your initial
shareholders, directors, executive officers, advisors or their affiliates purchasing shares
prior to your initial business combination could be to influence the vote necessary to
approve such a transaction and that, if true, there is no limit on the number of shares they
may purchase.
Manner of conducting redemptions, page 17
4.Please disclose whether the $5,000,001 of net tangible assets is calculated before or after
you pay your underwriters fees and commissions.
Dilution, page 60
5.We are unable to recalculate your net tangible book deficit of $(9,461). Please show us
your calculation or revise.
Capitalization, page 62
6.It appears from your disclosure under the heading “Redemption of public shares and
distribution and liquidation if no initial business combination” on page 21 that redemption
of the public shares is independent of your liquidation and dissolution, which must be
separately approved by your remaining shareholders after such redemption. Please tell us
why it is not appropriate to classify these remaining shares entirely in the mezzanine
under the guidance in paragraph 3f of ASC 480-10-S99-3A. In this regard, it appears that
these securities are subject to a deemed liquidation event as opposed to an ordinary
liquidation event as described in this guidance.
General
7.Please supplementally provide us with copies of all written communications, as defined in
Rule 405 under the Securities Act, that you, or anyone authorized to do so on your behalf,
present to potential investors in reliance on Section 5(d) of the Securities Act, whether or
not they retain copies of the communications.
