In connection with the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, on September 26, 2012, the Company issued a total of 10,282,611 “unregistered” and “restricted” shares of its common stock (the “Initial Company Shares”) and 290 “unregistered” and “restricted” shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to 41 designees of UEG in consideration of the Company’s acquisition from UEG of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Digital HKCo. The Company relied on the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S of the Securities and Exchange Commission in reliance on each designee’s status as a non-“U.S. person” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Preferred Stock has no dividend rights or voting rights or the right to receive any assets of the Company upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The Preferred Stock will be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock in three (3) tranches upon the occurrence of the following conversion events:
(i) upon the successful completion of certain Corporate Governance Objectives for the four (4) consecutive and complete reporting quarters of the Company immediately following the Closing, UEG’s designees shall have the right to convert the first tranche of 210 shares of Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock;
(ii) upon the successful completion of: (a) all of the Corporate Governance Objectives for the four (4) consecutive and complete reporting quarters of the Company immediately following the Closing; and (b) a Revenue Objective requiring that Digital HKCo, the WFOE and the VIE Entities (collectively, the “FAB Companies”) receive sales revenues of at least US$60,000,000 and net income of US$12,000,000 in fiscal year 2011, UEG’s designees shall have the right to convert the second tranche of 40 shares of Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock; and
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(iii) upon the successful completion of (a) all of the Corporate Governance Objectives for the six (6) consecutive and complete reporting quarters of the Company immediately following the Closing; and (b) a Revenue Objective requiring that the FAB Companies receive sales revenues of at least US$70,000,000 and net income of US$14,000,000 in fiscal year 2012, UEG’s designees shall have the right to convert the third tranche of 40 shares of Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock.
Upon the occurrence of each conversion event, the three tranches of Preferred Stock will be convertible into a number of shares of common stock that will bring the overall equity position in the Company of the holders of the Initial Company Shares, the Preferred Stock and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, on a fully diluted basis as of the date of Closing, to 70%, 74% and 78%, respectively. Based on a total of 10,702,309 fully-diluted outstanding common shares as of the Closing date, 14,689,444 common shares will be issuable upon conversion of the first tranche of Preferred Stock; 5,488,364 common shares upon conversion of the second tranche; and 7,484,132 common shares upon conversion of the third tranche. On September 19, 2012, the Company filed with the Colorado Secretary of State Articles of Amendment containing a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Preferred Stock. See the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 19, 2012, and filed with the SEC on the same date.
The Initial Company Shares are subject to the terms of a Voting Agreement, which has been executed by all of UEG’s designees, and which assigned to the Company’s Board of Directors the right to vote all of the Initial Company Shares for a period of eight (8) consecutive and complete reporting quarters of the Company after the Closing, provided, however, that:
(i) if Digital HKCo and the VIE Entities successfully complete all of certain Corporate Governance Objectives for two (2) consecutive and complete reporting quarters after the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors will release the voting rights to 50% of the Initial Company Shares held by the designees at such time;
(ii) upon successful completion of all of the Corporate Governance Objectives for six (6) consecutive and complete reporting quarters after the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors will release the voting rights to another 25% of the Initial Company Shares held by UEG’s designees at such time; and
(iii) upon the successful completion of all of the Corporate Governance Objectives for eight (8) consecutive and complete reporting quarters after the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors will release the voting rights to the remaining Initial Company Shares held by UEG’s designees at such time.
Fifty percent of the Initial Company Shares (the “Lock-up Shares”) are also subject to the terms of a Lock-up Agreement by which UEG’s designees have agreed not
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
to transfer, sell, hypothecate or gift such Lock-up Shares for a period of 12 months following the Closing date. In addition, during the first 24 months after the Closing, Digital HKCo and each of its permitted transferees or designees will have piggyback registration rights with respect to all Initial Company Shares that are not then subject to the restrictions of the Lock-up Agreement or the Voting Agreement, and all Company shares that have been issued upon conversion of Preferred Stock to cause such shares to be included in (i) any registration statement that the Company files with the SEC to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, common shares held by any person who was a stockholder of the Company at the time of Closing (or any transferee thereof); or (ii) any other registration statement filed by the Company so long as a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors has made a good faith determination that such piggyback registration will not significantly prejudice the Company’s ability to raise capital.
