Item 1.01.Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 2, 2021, TicketSmarter, Inc. (“Digital TicketSmarter”), a recently formed, wholly owned subsidiary of Digital Ally, Inc. (the “Company”), and TicketSmarter, LLC (“TicketSmarter”) on behalf of itself and its wholly owned subsidiary Goody Tickets, LLC, and members of TicketSmarter (“Sellers”), entered into that certain Unit Purchase Agreement (the “UPA”), pursuant to which, Digital TicketSmarter purchased all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of TicketSmarter, (the “Acquisition”) for aggregate consideration (“Acquisition Consideration”) of approximately $14.1 million, including cash of approximately $8.9 million and shares of Company common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) with a value of approximately $0.99 million, which consideration was paid at closing. The Acquisition Consideration includes up to approximately $4.2 million structured as contingent payment (the “Contingent Payment”) in additional cash and shares of Common Stock if TicketSmarter achieves certain milestones prior to March 31, 2022, as set forth in the UPA.

 

The UPA contains customary representations and warranties and covenants. The closing of the UPA and the Acquisition also occurred on September 2, 2021. Mr. Jeffrey Goodman and Mr. Michael Goodman, will be employed by Digital TicketSmarter as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations Officer, respectively, and they each executed certain restricted stock grant agreements with the Company (collectively, the “Restricted Stock Grant Agreements”), whereby the Company issued 100,000 restricted shares of Common Stock and 50,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr. Jeffrey Goodman and Mr. Michael Goodman, respectively, subject to the terms and provisions of the Company’s 2020 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan. The restricted shares of Common Stock were valued based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the day of grant. The restricted shares of Common Stock will vest in equal installments over a five-year period beginning on the first anniversary date each recipient began employment.

 

The Company will contribute $1.5 million to TicketSmarter for general working capital purposes, and contemporaneously with the payoff of the line of credit of TicketSmarter with NBKC Bank, will provide a $3 million line-of-credit to TicketSmarter with interest to be assessed at the Prime Rate (as defined in the UPA) at the time of borrowing and further provided that the line-of-credit is secured by a first lien on all the assets of the Company.

 

The foregoing is a summary and does not purport to be a complete description of all terms and conditions of the UPA, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express the Company’s intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements related to the Company’s future activities, or future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s business based, in part, on assumptions made by its management. These statements are not guarantees of future performances and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those risks discussed in documents that the Company files from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 8-K, except as required by law.
