Item
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
December 31, 2007, Mandalay Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Registrant” or “Parent”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
“Merger Agreement”) with Twistbox Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Twistbox Entertainment,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Adi McAbian and Spark Capital,
L.P. as representatives of the stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholder
Representatives”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the
Company, with the Company to be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving
Corporation”) through an exchange of capital stock of the Company for common
stock of Parent (the “Merger”).
Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding
share of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Company Common
Stock”), on a fully converted basis, assuming conversion on a one-for-one basis
of all issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, each $0.01 par value
per share (the “Company Preferred Stock,” and together with Company Common
Stock, the “Company Capital Stock”), will be converted automatically into and
become exchangeable for shares of common stock of Parent, $0.0001 par value
per
share (“Parent Common Stock”), in accordance with certain exchange ratios as set
forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Consideration”). As of the effective
time, all shares of the Company Capital Stock will no longer be outstanding
and
will automatically be canceled and will cease to exist, and each holder of
a
certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with
respect thereto, except the right to receive the applicable Merger
Consideration. Additionally, each share of the Company Capital Stock held by
the
Company or owned by Merger Sub, Parent or any subsidiary of the Company or
Parent immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be canceled
and extinguished as of the effective time without any conversion or payment
in
respect thereof. Each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of
Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger shall be
converted at the effective time into one validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the
Surviving Corporation.
In
addition, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding vested option
(a
“Company Option”) to purchase shares of Company Common Stock issued pursuant to
the Company’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan shall be assumed by Parent, subject to
the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such plan immediately
prior to the Merger, except that (a) the number of shares of Parent Common
Stock
subject to each Company Option shall be determined by multiplying the number
of
shares of Company Common Stock that were subject to such Company Option
immediately prior to the Merger by 0.74599 (subject
to adjustment at or prior to closing to reflect vesting of additional Company
Options and the issuance of any shares of Company Common Stock upon exercise
of
Company Options prior to closing)
(the
“Option Conversion Ratio”), rounded down to the nearest whole number; and (b)
the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable
upon
exercise of each Company Option shall be determined by dividing the per share
exercise price of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option, as in
effect prior to the merger, by the Option Conversion Ratio, subject to any
adjustments required by the Internal Revenue Code. All unvested options of
the
Company will terminate prior to the effective time of the Merger. The Merger
Consideration shall consist of an aggregate of 12,500,000 shares of Parent
Common Stock which will include the conversion of all shares of Company Capital
Stock and the reservation of all shares of Parent Common Stock required for
assumption of the Company Options. All warrants to purchase shares of Company
Common Stock outstanding at the time of the Merger (the “Company Warrants”)
shall be exercised in full or terminated on or before the effective
time.
The
Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties of Parent and the
Company, as applicable, relating to, among other things, (a) proper corporate
organization and similar corporate matters, (b) subsidiaries, (c)
capitalization, (d) authorization, performance and enforceability of the Merger
Agreement, (e) licenses and permits, (f) compliance with applicable laws, (g)
proper maintenance of financial statements, (h) absence of undisclosed
liabilities, (i) absence of certain changes, (j) absence of litigation, (k)
employee and employee benefit matters, (l) leases and ownership of other
properties, (m) accounts receivables, (n) suppliers and customers, (o) taxes,
(p) environmental matters, (q) brokers and third party expenses, (r)
intellectual property, (s) material contracts, (t) insurance, (u) compliance
with government actions and filings, and (v) interested party transactions.
Each
of
Parent, the Company and Merger Sub has agreed to continue its business in the
ordinary course prior to the closing of the Merger. Additionally, prior to
the
closing, the parties shall obtain all necessary approvals, the parties are
subject to certain confidentiality obligations, and the Company may not,
directly or indirectly, solicit or accept any proposals concerning any merger,
sale of ownership or assets of the Company, recapitalization or similar
transaction. The obligations of Parent and the Company to consummate the Merger
are subject to closing conditions including, among other things, that (a) Parent
shall have filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange
Commission at the closing of the Merger in a form acceptable to the parties;
(b)
certain existing debt of the Company shall have remained with the Company,
50%
of which shall have been assumed by Parent; and (c)
existing
employment agreements with certain key employees and founders of the Company
shall have been amended on or before the closing of
the
Merger
on terms
acceptable to such persons, the Company and Parent.
The
obligations of each of the Company and the Parent to consummate the Merger
are
subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain additional conditions,
including, among other things: (a) that the representations and warranties
of
the other party contained in the Merger Agreement are true and correct in all
material respects; (b) that the other party shall have performed or complied
in
all material respects with all agreements and covenants under the Merger
Agreement; (c) the absence of certain litigation with respect to the other
party
affecting the Merger; (d) the receipt of all necessary consents, waivers or
approvals by the other party; (e) completion of due diligence; and (f) the
absence of a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the other party, as such
term is defined in the Merger Agreement.
The
Company’s obligations to consummate the Merger are additionally subject to the
appointment of Ian Aaron to the Parent’s Board of Directors and as Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and the appointment of a representative of
the
stockholders of the Company to the Parent’s Board of Directors. Parent’s
obligations to consummate the Merger are additionally subject to: the proper
exercise or termination of all Company Warrants, receipt from the Company of
certain information, including audited financial statements for the two years
ended March 2006 and March 2007, certain resignations by directors and officers
of the Company, the termination of certain
agreements relating to the equity interests of the Company’s investors, and
payment by the Company of outstanding fees and expenses, including legal fees
and expenses, incurred by the Stockholder Representatives, in connection with
the Merger Agreement.
The
Merger Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the closing of the
Merger, as follows: (a) by mutual written agreement of Parent or the Company;
(b) by either Parent or the Company if a governmental entity shall have issued
a
final non-appealable order, decree or ruling or taken any other action, in
any
case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise
prohibiting the Merger; (c) by either Parent or the Company if the closing
has
not occurred on or before February 13, 2008 unless extended by the parties;
(d)
subject to a 30-day cure period, by either Parent or the Company, if the other
party has materially breached any of its covenants, agreements, representations
or warranties or if any representation or warranty of the other party has become
untrue; or (e) by either Parent or the Company if the stock price of Parent
Common Stock is less than $2.75 per share, unless the Company and Parent
mutually agree to adjust the share allocations set forth in the Merger
Agreement.
The
foregoing is not a complete summary of the terms of the Merger Agreement and
reference is made to the complete text of the Merger Agreement attached hereto
as Exhibit 2.1, which is incorporated herein by reference. On January 2, 2008,
the Registrant issued a press release announcing its entry into the Merger
