Quotient Technology Inc. (NYSE:QUOT) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 2, 2017, Quotient Technology Inc. (the
Company) entered into an Agreement and
Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement)
to acquire Crisp Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(Crisp). Crisp provides a platform that
identifies mobile shoppers, delivers data-informed experiences to
them that activates them to store visits and sales, and
accurately measure success. Following the acquisition, Crisp will
be a wholly -owned subsidiary of the Company.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the
acquisition, the Company will pay an aggregate amount of
consideration worth approximately $33,000,000, subject to certain
customary adjustments, for all of the capital stock of Crisp and
all of the outstanding and unexercised stock options, both vested
and unvested, warrants and other interests in Crisp.
Approximately $20,000,000 of the aggregate consideration paid
upon consummation of the acquisition will be paid in cash and
$13,000,000 will be paid in shares of the Companys common stock.
Additionally, contingent consideration of up to $24,500,000 in
cash may become payable upon the achievement of certain financial
metrics over a period of one year after closing. As a result, if
the acquisition is consummated, the Company expects to issue
1,177,945 shares of Company common stock (determined based on the
trailing volume weighted average closing price of the Companys
common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange for the
ninety (90) consecutive trading days ending on April 28, 2017) in
exchange for the outstanding securities of Crisp. The Company has
agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-3 or other
appropriate form as applicable registering the resale by Crisps
securityholders of the shares of the Companys common stock issued
upon consummation of the acquisition, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement, certain
key employees of Crisp entered into non-competition and
non-solicitation agreements and employment offer letters with the
Company, to become effective upon the consummation of the
acquisition. In addition, prior to the consummation of the
acquisition, all or substantially all of the other employees of
Crisp will be offered employment with the Company, effective on
or about the closing of the acquisition.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and
warranties, covenants, and indemnification provisions. Under the
terms of the Merger Agreement, a portion of the aggregate
consideration, which shall be comprised of cash and shares of the
Companys common stock having an aggregate value of $3,300,000,
will be held in escrow to secure the indemnification obligations
of the Crisps securityholders. Additionally, an all-cash expense
fund will be established to pay for certain fees and expenses of
the Crisp securityholders representative. Amounts remaining in
escrow will be released to Crisps securityholders 18 months
following consummation of the transaction, net of any
indemnification payments made from such fund and amounts reserved
for pending indemnification claims made to the Merger Agreement.
The closing of the acquisition is subject to customary closing
conditions. The acquisition is anticipated to close in the
Companys second fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2017. The
transaction is not expected to have a material impact on the
Companys guidance for revenue or Adjusted EBITDA for the second
quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company will provide an updated
guidance for fiscal 2017 that takes into account the transaction
after it has closed and the purchase accounting has been
completed.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the
transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete
and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full
text of the Merger Agreement, which the Company will file with
the Companys Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2017 or
earlier by Current Report on Form 8-K. In particular, the
assertions embodied in the representations and warranties
contained in the Merger Agreement are qualified by information in
a confidential Disclosure Schedule provided by Crisp to the
Company in connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement.
This confidential Disclosure Schedule contains information that
modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations
and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Moreover,
certain representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement
were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Company
and Crisp rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly,
you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the
Merger Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of
facts about the Company or Crisp.
