As consideration for the Acquisition, the Company paid an aggregate purchase price of up to EUR 12,750,000, comprised of: (i)a cash payment to Sellers of EUR 3,506,250, subject to adjustments for transaction expenses, escrow amounts, indebtedness, and working capital adjustments (the“Cash Payment”); and (ii)the issuance to Sellers of 584,291 shares (approximately EUR 4,781,250) of the Company’s common stock (the “Closing Shares”), par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”).

On the Closing Date, the Company deposited EUR 1,275,000 of the Cash Payment into an escrow fund to serve as collateral and partial security for working capital adjustments and certain indemnification rights. As described above, the Q4 Consideration, if earned, will also be deposited into the escrow fund. The escrow fund will be maintained for up to 24 months following the completion of the Acquisition or until such earlier time as the escrow fund is exhausted.

The Company used cash on hand for the Cash Payment paid on the Closing Date, and under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to guarantee the obligations of Mitek Holding B.V. thereunder.
