Entry
into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As
previously disclosed, on August 17, 2026, TruGolf Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Acquisition
Agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with 18141991 Canada Inc., a corporation incorporated under the federal laws of Canada
and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“SubCo”), and Polymath Research Inc., a corporation incorporated under the
federal laws of Canada (“Polymath”).
Pursuant
to the Acquisition Agreement, Polymath and SubCo will amalgamate under the Canada Business Corporations Act and continue as one corporation
(“Amalco”). Upon completion of the amalgamation, each of Polymath and SubCo will cease to exist as a separate entity, the
assets and liabilities of each will continue as assets and liabilities of Amalco, and Amalco will become a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Company.
At
the effective time of the amalgamation, Polymath shareholders will receive, on a pro rata basis, shares of the Company’s Class
A common stock and shares of newly designated Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Series C preferred stock”). The
Class A common stock consideration will equal 19.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class A common stock immediately before
the effective time, and the Series C preferred stock consideration will be determined under a formula based on a $140,000,000 reference
amount minus the value of the Class A common stock being issued to the Polymath shareholders (such remaining amount, the “Series
C Preferred Value”).
On
September 8, 2026, the parties entered into an amendment to the Acquisition Agreement (the “Amendment”, pursuant to which
the number of shares of Series C preferred stock to be issued was fixed at the Series C Preferred Value divided by $1,000. Each share
of Series C preferred stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share. The Amendment provides that the Series C preferred stock is convertible
into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion ratio equal to the stated value divided by the conversion price
of $3.94 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth in the certificate of designation for the Series C preferred stock. Effective
as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the second business day after the Company has obtained stockholder approval for the conversion of the
Series C preferred stock for purposes of Nasdaq Rules 5635(a) and 5635(b) and, if required, has obtained Nasdaq approval of a new listing
application filed after completion of the acquisition contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement, each outstanding share of Series C preferred
stock will automatically convert into a number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the conversion ratio. Following stockholder
approval, and subject to the beneficial ownership and other limitations set forth in the certificate of designation, holders may also
elect to convert shares of Series C preferred stock into Class A common stock at the conversion ratio by delivering a notice of conversion
to the Company.
Until
Nasdaq approval has been obtained, if required, the Company may not effect, and a holder may not convert, any portion of the Series C
preferred stock to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion, the aggregate ownership of all holders would exceed 19.99%
of the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion. Any shares issued in excess
of this limitation will be deemed null and void and cancelled ab initio, and the applicable holder will not have the power to vote or
transfer those excess shares. The beneficial ownership limitation may not be waived and applies to successor holders of the Series C
preferred stock. No shares of Series C preferred stock may convert into Class A common stock before the required stockholder approval
and Nasdaq approval have been obtained, if required.
Holders
of Series C preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends on an as-converted basis, without regard to the beneficial ownership limitation,
equal to and in the same form and manner as dividends actually paid on shares of Company Class A common stock. Except as provided in
the certificate of designation, no other dividends are payable on the Series C preferred stock, and the Company may not pay dividends
on Class A common stock, other than dividends payable in Class A common stock, unless it simultaneously pays the corresponding dividend
on the Series C preferred stock.
The
Series C preferred stock has no voting rights, except as otherwise provided in the certificate of designation or required by the Nevada
Revised Statutes. So long as any shares of Series C preferred stock are outstanding, the Company may not take certain actions without
the affirmative vote or written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C preferred stock, including adversely
changing the rights of the Series C preferred stock, issuing additional Series C preferred stock or changing the authorized number of
shares of Series C preferred stock other than by conversion, consummating certain fundamental transactions or other business combinations,
issuing Class A common stock or securities that convert into Class A common stock other than as contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement,
or entering into any agreement with respect to the foregoing.
With
respect to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Series C preferred stock ranks senior to any class
or series of capital stock created after the designation of the Series C preferred stock that expressly ranks junior to the Series C
preferred stock, on parity with the Class A and Class B common stock and any class or series of capital stock created after such designation
that expressly ranks on parity with the Series C preferred stock, and junior to the Company’s Series A preferred stock and any
class or series of capital stock created after such designation that expressly ranks senior to the Series C preferred stock. Upon a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, and subject to the prior and superior rights of any senior securities, each holder of Series
C preferred stock is entitled to receive, before any distribution to holders of junior securities, the amount that would be paid on the
shares of Class A common stock underlying the Series C preferred stock on an as-converted basis, without regard to the beneficial ownership
limitation, plus any declared but unpaid dividends.
The
conversion price of the Series C preferred stock is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combinations and similar
events affecting the Class A common stock. In the event of certain fundamental transactions, holders of Series C preferred stock will
be entitled, upon subsequent conversion, to receive the securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had the
Series C preferred stock been converted immediately before the fundamental transaction, without regard to the beneficial ownership limitation.
So
long as any shares of Series C preferred stock remain outstanding, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain negative covenants
absent the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C preferred stock, including restrictions on
incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness, permitting liens, repaying indebtedness, redeeming or repurchasing capital stock or paying cash
dividends or distributions, disposing of assets outside the ordinary course or as otherwise contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement,
engaging in materially different lines of business, and entering into certain affiliate transactions.
