AMENDMENT TO MERGER AGREEMENT - SEMACONNECT

 

On August 4, 2023, the Company, SemaConnect LLC, its wholly-owned subsidiary, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, on behalf of the former stockholders of SemaConnect, Inc. (the “Stockholders’ Representative”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the original Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 13, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company acquired SemaConnect.

 

Under the terms of the Amendment, the parties modified the manner by which the “Deferred Merger Consideration” (which remains $40,600, plus accrued interest) will be paid by the Company. As amended, the Company agreed to pay: (a) within 15 days following our consummation of a financing transaction or series of related transactions in excess of $150,000 since the June 2022 closing of the Merger Agreement, $12,500 of the outstanding Deferred Merger Consideration in cash to the former stockholders of SemaConnect (the “Stockholders”), and (b) within 15 days following our consummation of any financing transaction or series of related transactions in excess of $250,000 since the closing of the Merger Agreement, fifty cents of every dollar of proceeds received by the Company in excess of $250,000 to repay the Deferred Merger Consideration until all Deferred Merger Consideration is paid in full to the Stockholders. The Company agreed that its payment obligations will be guaranteed by all of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries and secured by a security interest on all assets of the Company and its United States subsidiaries. The Company also agreed that such obligations will be due and payable by April 1, 2025, shortening the original due date from June 13, 2025.

 

Each Stockholder will have the right to convert its outstanding Deferred Merger Consideration (after the initial payment of $12,500, including accrued interest) into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 126% of the seven-day average prior to the date of the Amendment, provided that under no circumstance will the Company be obligated to issue such number of shares equal to or in excess of 20% of the Company’s common stock to the Stockholders, taking into account all common stock previously issued to such holders in the transaction. Under the Amendment, interest on the Deferred Merger Consideration was increased from 7% to 9.5% per annum following the date of the Amendment until full repayment of Deferred Merger Consideration. One half of the accrued interest may be paid in cash and the other half may be paid in-kind.

 

In consideration of the agreement by the Stockholders to enter into the Amendment, the Company agreed to issue 158,372 shares of its common stock with a fair value of $1,000 (“Consent Fee”) (based on the average closing price on and over the three days before and after the date of the Amendment) to the Stockholders’ Representative. The Company also agreed to reimburse up to $50 of the Stockholders’ Representative’s out-of-pocket expenses. The Amendment was determined to be an extinguishment of debt in accordance with ASC 470. As a result, the Consent Fee of $1,000 was accounted for as a loss on extinguishment of notes payable on the condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Furthermore, the Company will recognize up to $50 of reimbursable legal fees as a debt discount to the face of the note, which will be amortized through interest expense over the term of the note.
