Additional Investment in MoviePass
As previously disclosed, on October 11, 2017, Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (“HMNY”) and MoviePass Inc. (“MoviePass”) entered into that certain Investment Option Agreement (the “MoviePass Option Agreement”), to which HMNY was granted an option to purchase additional shares of MoviePass common stock in an amount up to $20 million based on a pre-money valuation of MoviePass of $210 million (the “MoviePass Option”) amounting to an additional investment of up to 8.7% of the Currently Outstanding Shares of Common Stock (as defined in the MoviePass Option Agreement) of MoviePass, giving effect to the closing of the transaction with MoviePass (the “MoviePass Transaction”). The issuance of HMNY’s shares of common stock in connection with the MoviePass Transaction remains subject to approval by HMNY’s stockholders in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635.
On November 14, 2017, HMNY used $2 million of the cash proceeds received from the mandatory prepayments under those certain investor secured promissory notes issued by certain institutional investors to HMNY on November 7, 2017 in order to exercise an additional $2 million of the MoviePass Option (the “MoviePass Option Exercise”). In connection with the MoviePass Option Exercise, MoviePass issued HMNY a subordinated convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $2 million (the “MoviePass Option Note”). Assuming the closing of the MoviePass Transaction occurs, MoviePass will issue the amount of shares of its common stock to HMNY underlying the MoviePass Option Note, and upon such issuance the MoviePass Option Note shall be deemed satisfied in full.
The above discussion does not purport to be a complete description of the MoviePass Option Note described in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) and it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the MoviePass Option Note, which is attached as an exhibit to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
