ARTICLE 1
THE TRANSACTION
1.1 Purchase and Sale of the Company’s Shares.
(a) Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Seller at the Closing, shall sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase from the Seller, for the consideration set forth in Section 1.1(b), all the legal and beneficial rights, title and interests in and to all of the Shares held by the Seller, free and clear of all liens, as a result of which the Buyer will own all of the issued and outstanding Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, upon the Closing, the Buyer shall own and be responsible and liable for all the Company’s assets, intellectual property, cash, debts and any other obligations of the Company.
(b) Transaction Consideration.
(i) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the consideration for the Shares shall be the Transaction Consideration, which consists of: (1) releasing the Seller form all the Company’s obligations towards its vendors, employees, tax authorities and any other (past, current and future) creditors of the Company (collectively the “Obligations”), which are estimated at the time of the Closing at more than U.S.$1.7 million, (2) waiver by the Founders of 100% of the personal consideration owed to them under their employment agreements in the total amount of $600,000 USD (which will be increased in December 2022 to $800,000 USD; and (3) a cash consideration of $2M (two million USD), to be paid to the Seller under the terms set forth in Section 1.1(b) (the “Cash Consideration”).
1 |
(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that until the Transaction is officially closed at the Closing, the Seller is fully responsible to finance all the Company’s Obligations, and once the Transaction is closed, the Buyer shall be responsible to finance all the Company’s Obligations. It is further agreed that upon the Closing, the Seller shall also release the Company from all its obligations (except for those created by this Agreement) towards the Seller, including any inter-company debts in the books, if any and the Buyer will release the Seller from all of its obligations (except for those created by this Agreement) toward the Company and the Buyer.
(c) Cash Consideration. The Cash Consideration of U.S. $2M shall be paid to the Seller as follows:
(i) The obligation to pay the Cash Consideration to the Seller shall be secured by a note to be signed by both the Buyer and the Company (the “Note”).
(ii) The maturity due date of the Note shall be December 31, 2023 and the Buyer may extend it by written notice until December 31, 2024.
(iii) The Note can be partially paid over the time, but in the event it is not paid in full by December 31, 2024, then the remaining amount due (i.e. $2m less any amount paid, if any), will be converted into the Company’s shares (the “Deposited Shares”), which will be deposited with the escrow company of Xxxxxxxxx Shaham Trust Ltd. (the “Escrow Agent”) for the benefit of the Seller or, at the election of the Seller, issued in the form of a stock certificate or recorded in some other market-standard format to be held by the Escrow Agent.
(iv) The amount of the Deposited Shares shall be determined according to the post-money valuation of the last investment round of the Company, and in the absence of such investment round, the total amount of the Deposited Shares shall be $2m divided by the Company’s valuation to be determined at that time by a third party appraiser, to be nominated by both parties (the “Appraiser”). The parties agree that the identity of the Appraiser shall be Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Valuation Advisers, to the extent their cost of the appraisal shall not be higher than the cost of other appraisers from the big 4 accounting firms (i.e. E&Y, KPMG, PWC and Deloitte). The parties shall split the cost of the Appraiser.
(v) To illustrate, in the event the Company has an investment round at $20m post-money valuation, and no Cash Consideration was paid by December 31, 2024, then the entire $2m Cash Consideration shall be converted to 10% of the Company’s share capital (i.e., $2m divided by $20m valuation). In the event no investment round is completed by December 31, 2024, then the Deposited Shares will be deposited with the Escrow Agent, calculated as $2m divided by the Company’s valuation to be determined by the Appraiser provided that the agreement with the Escrow Agent that relates to the Deposited Shares is approved in writing by the Seller in its reasonable discretion.
(vi) It is agreed that once any portion of the Cash Consideration is paid to the Escrow Agent (after the Deposited Shares were deposited with the Escrow Agent), then the Escrow Agent will release the relevant portion of the Deposited Shares accordingly. For example, if $1M was paid to the Escrow Agent, than half (50%) of the Deposited Shares shall be released back to the Founders or the Company, as applicable.
(d) Strategic Cooperation. The parties agree to use their best efforts to enter into a non- exclusive binding agreement within three (3) months from the date hereof that permits the Seller to receive individual and match analytics for racquet sports (including, but not limited to, tennis, padel and pickle ball) without any upfront cost to the Seller and based on revenues to be received from the Seller’s customers and users of the analytics. For the avoidance of doubt, the specific terms of such cooperation shall be determined by the parties within the final cooperation agreement, and if it would require the Company for the exclusive purpose of this cooperation, to develop any additional and new features, which do not exist in the current system of the Company, then such R&D costs shall be solely covered by the Seller. Any future features that will be developed within the Company’s ordinary course of business, and not exclusively for the purpose of the cooperation, shall not be covered by the Seller.

(e) Audit Support. The Buyer and the Company hereby agree to cause the Company’s serving CFO and his/her staff to provide the Seller in a prompt and reasonable timely manner all financial and other information that the Buyer reasonably requires with respect to the preparation of its financial statements and their audit for any relevant period of time. Each of the Buyer and Company hereby represent and warrant that the current CFO has agreed to provide such information in a prompt and reasonable timely manner and will cooperate with and support the Seller in connection with its financial statements and audits. For the avoidance of doubt, any additional out of pocket costs of such audits (beyond the ordinary work of the CFO) shall be covered by the Seller so long as the Seller has been advised of such costs before they are incurred and approves such costs in writing (including by email).
(f) Arm’s Length Consideration. The Transaction Consideration to be paid under this Agreement was determined by the parties at arm’s length standard according to the market cap of the Company and all its current Obligations.
