NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On December 21, 2018, Stellar held a special meeting at which Stellar’s stockholders considered and approved, among other matters, the Merger Agreement. On December 26, 2018, Stellar deregistered as a corporation in the Republic of the Marshall Islands and domesticated as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Upon the effectiveness of the Domestication, Stellar became a Delaware corporation and, upon the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below), Stellar changed its corporate name to “Phunware, Inc.” and all outstanding securities of Stellar were deemed to constitute outstanding securities of the Successor. Also on December 26, 2018, Merger Sub merged with and into Phunware, Inc., with Phunware surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Successor. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Phunware changed its corporate name to “Phunware OpCo, Inc.” As of the open of trading on December 28, 2018, the common stock and warrants of Phunware, Inc. began trading on Nasdaq as “PHUN” and “PHUNW,” respectively.

 

In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, holders of 1,813,487 shares of Stellar common stock sold in its initial public offering (“Public Shares”) exercised their right to redeem their Public Shares for cash at a price of $10.64 per share, for an aggregate amount of approximately $19.3 million. As a result of these redemptions, the Stellar trust account had approximately $0.4 million immediately prior to Closing. As a result of the redemption of public shares, the deferred underwriting fees were decreased to approximately $10,000 and paid at the closing of the Business Combination.

 

In addition, 6,000 shares for aggregate cash proceeds of $6.0 million from the Series A 8% convertible preferred stock financing (“Series A Financing”) were issued in conjunction with the Business Combination. In connection with the Series A Financing, the Sponsors transferred an aggregate of 250,000 shares of Stellar common stock and 250,000 warrants to purchase shares of Stellar common stock to the Series A Financing investor, and 181,391 shares to certain service providers. The Series A Financing shares are mandatorily redeemable in cash at the following schedule; (i) 104% of the aggregate value of three thousand (3,000) shares on the 30 day anniversary of the issuance; (ii) 104% of the aggregate value of two thousand five hundred (2,500) shares on the 60th day anniversary of the original issue; and (iii) 104% of the aggregate value of five hundred (500) shares of the 90th day anniversary of the original issue. The Preferred Stock is also convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits  and other recapitalization type events and antidilutive events which would include subsequent issuances of equity or equity linked securities at prices more favorable than the conversion price of these preferred shares. Generally, the Preferred Stock does not have voting rights. Furthermore, in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company the Preferred Stock would be entitled to receive assets ahead of the Company’s common stockholders.

 

Immediately after giving effect to the Business Combination (including the redemptions and the issuance of shares in the Series A Financing, both described above), there were approximately 27.9 million shares of common stock and warrants to purchase approximately 18.2 million shares of common stock of Phunware issued and outstanding.

 

In addition, with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Sponsors transferred to the former stockholders of Phunware 3,985,244 warrants to purchase shares of Successor common stock. As consideration for the warrants transferred to Phunware shareholders, a promissory note was issued to the Sponsors (the “Transfer Sponsor Warrant Note”). The amount of the note was approximately $1,993,000, which represented $0.50 per warrant transferred to former stockholders of Phunware. The warrants transferred have an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Transfer Sponsor Warrant Note shall mature on December 26, 2019. See below for additional discussion on the Transfer Sponsor Warrant Note.

 

The Sponsors also transferred to Stellar 627,864 shares of Stellar common stock, which shall be retained in treasury and available for issuance from time to time by Phunware.

 

Furthermore, the Company issued 2,211,572 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsors as repayment in full for the unsecured promissory notes - related parties. The repayment of the related party notes was calculated at $0.50 per warrant.

 

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the former stockholders of Phunware owned approximately 92% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Successor. This percentage excludes the impact of outstanding stock options and warrants.

 

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties of the parties thereto, certain of which are limited by materiality and material adverse effect. The parties have also each agreed to certain covenants contained in the Merger Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants of the parties contained in the Merger Agreement terminated at the Closing, notwithstanding that any covenant that, by its terms, provides for performance following the consummation of the Business Combination shall survive until such covenant is performed.

 

There is no accounting effect or change in the carrying amount of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the Successor as a result of the domestication. The Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, Stellar is the legal acquirer and Phunware is the accounting acquirer and predecessor whereby the Successor’s historical financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Phunware, and the net cash proceeds obtained from Stellar in the Business Combination is reflected as a capital infusion. Furthermore, the historical capitalization of Phunware immediately before the Business Combination was adjusted based on the exchange ratio of 0.459 Successor shares for every one share of Phunware capital stock.

 

In conjunction with the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization, the Company entered into at-will employment agreements with seven senior-level and executive employees with aggregate annual base salaries of $1,615,000. The employment agreement has an initial term of four years and automatically renews for one-year periods should either party not terminate within ninety days prior to the date of automatic renewal. The employment agreement outlines provisions around bonus, equity, severance and other employment benefits. Should employment terminate within the first two years without cause or a change of control, the executive would be granted severance payment equal to two years of base salary and two years of annualized bonuses earned along with immediate vesting of options. At the conclusion of the second year, the severance amount would be one-year of base salary and immediate vesting of options.

 

On January 15, 2019, Phunware and the holders of the Transfer Sponsor Warrant Notes agreed to amend, waive and forgive the Transfer Sponsor Warrant Notes in their entireties, effective as of December 26, 2018. The waiver of the Transferred Sponsor Warrant Note had no effect on the holder of outstanding shares of Phunware stock (as determined immediately prior to the Merger) right to receive, should they have elected, the Transfer Sponsor Warrants as consideration in the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization.
