Acquisition of Assets

 

On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with FourCubed Acquisition Company, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Buyer”), 6t4 Company, a Minnesota corporation (“6t4”), FourCubed Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“FCM” and together with 6t4 and all affiliated entities comprising their respective businesses, “Seller”), and Chris Carlson, the principal shareholder of Seller (“Shareholder”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Buyer acquired the intellectual property and other specified assets of Seller. The purchase and sale of such assets was consummated on December 31, 2021.

 

In consideration for the purchase of the acquired assets, the Company and Buyer agreed to deliver the following: (i) at closing, a cash payment to Seller of $5,950,000; (ii) effective as of the closing, 606,114 ordinary shares of the Company (the “Closing Shares”), which was determined by dividing $1,650,000 divided by the 45- calendar day trailing average closing stock price of the Company’s ordinary shares ending on the day before the closing date to 6t4; (iii) within 45 days subsequent to closing, a cash payment to Shareholder of $300,000; and (iv) an amount of $250,000 that will be retained by the Company for indemnity purposes and will be released 180 days after closing if no indemnity claims are made within that period.

 

Additionally, subsequent to closing, the Company agreed to issue and deliver to 6t4 up to an additional 587,747 ordinary shares (the “Earnout Shares” and together with the Closing Shares, the “Shares”). The Company’s obligation to issue and deliver the Earnout Shares is subject to the achievement of certain milestones relating to the development of Seller’s technologies and revenue and gross margin targets, as described in the Agreement.

 

The Shares are subject to a lock-up period pursuant to which none of the Shares may be sold or otherwise transferred for a period of six months following their issuance, and only 25% of the Shares may be resold or transferred each month thereafter.

 

The Company, 6t4, and Shareholder also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to register for resale the Shares. Under the Registration Agreement, the Company must file an initial registration statement for the Closing Shares or Earnout Shares issued pursuant to the Stock Payment no later than the tenth trading day after the expiration of the applicable lock-up period for such shares.

 

The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by Seller and Shareholder. Additionally, Seller and Shareholder agreed to customary indemnification obligations to the Company, subject to certain limitations as set forth in the Agreement.

 

The Shares issued or to be issued pursuant to the Agreement were offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from registration under Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

The foregoing summaries of the Agreement and the Registration Agreement are qualified in their entireties by reference to the full text of each agreement, copies of which are filed herewith and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively.
