In 2012, the Company issued a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 14,866 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $5.54 per share to a banking institution with which the Company previously had a revolving line of credit. The term of the warrant is the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date of issuance, (ii) the closing of the initial registered public offering of the Company’s common stock, or (iii) the closing of an acquisition (as defined in the warrant) where the consideration consisting of cash or publicly traded securities payable in connection with the acquisition for each share is at least three (3) times the exercise price. The Reverse Merger and Recapitalization did not trigger an expiration of the warrant pursuant to term (ii) or (iii) above. The warrant is fully vested.
In 2018, but prior to the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,085,059 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $9.22 per share. The term of the warrants is the earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, (ii) an acquisition, merger, or consolidation of the Company or a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Phunware and its subsidiaries, except (a) any sale of stock for capital raising purposes, (b) purpose of changing the Company’s state of incorporation, and (c) where the shareholders of Phunware immediately before such transaction retain at least a majority of the voting power immediately following such transaction; or (iii) immediately prior to an initial public offering. The Reverse Merger and Recapitalization did not trigger an expiration of the warrant pursuant to term (ii) or (iii) above. These warrants are fully vested.
The Company has common stock warrants trading under the Nasdaq ticker symbol PHUNW (the “Public Warrants”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants became exercisable for cash 30 days after the completion of the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization.  In addition, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants was not filed with the SEC and declared effective within 90 days from the consummation the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization, holders were entitled to exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The Company was unable to have the registration statement declared effective by the 90-day deadline, although it was declared effective on May 14, 2019. As of September 30, 2019, 5,139,319 Public Warrants have been exercised on a cashless basis that resulted in the issuance of 2,951,741 shares. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Company also has Private Placement Warrants outstanding (the “Private Placement Warrants”). Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization. The Private Placement Warrants are exercisable for cash (even if a registration statement covering the common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants is not effective) or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option and will not be redeemable in each case so long as they are still held by the initial purchasers or their affiliates.
Unit Purchase Option ("UPOs")
The Company sold to the underwriters for its initial public offering in 2016 an option to purchase up to a total of 130,000 units, at an exercise price of $11.50 per unit. The units are comprised of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase common stock. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, at any time during the period commencing on the closing of the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization and terminating on the fifth anniversary of the Reverse Merger and Recapitalization. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to those offered in the Company’s initial public offering in 2016. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the unit purchase option (the difference between the exercise prices of the unit purchase option and the underlying Warrants and the market price of the UPO and underlying ordinary shares) to exercise the unit purchase option without the payment of cash. As of September 30, 2019, all UPOs had been exercised, and 24,172 warrants related to the UPO exercise remained outstanding.
PhunCoin Warrant
In 2018, the Company issued warrants to to sixty-eight (68) stockholders to receive an aggregate of approximately 27.4 billion PhunCoin. Should the Company complete a Token Generation Event, the stockholders would receive their requisite amount of PhunCoin. The Company believes there is no traditional “exercise period” or ‘term” as with other typical embedded features, and the PhunCoin warrants were originally issued in conjunction with the Company’s Series F Preferred Stock financing. The PhunCoin warrants lack characteristics of financial instruments and derivatives. In addition, the PhunCoin warrants do not obligate the Company to achieve the Token Generation Event or launch and distribute PhunCoin to the warrantholders.  At the time of the PhunCoin warrant issuance, there was no market for PhunCoin, and they did not exist. Accordingly, the Company determined there was no value assigned to the PhunCoin warrants issued to the stockholders. As of September 30, 2019, no PhunCoin had been issued to the PhunCoin warrantholders.
