Founder Shares
In September 2016, the Company issued 2,875,000 shares of the Company's common stock to the Sponsor (the "Founder Shares") in exchange for a capital contribution of $25,000. The 2,875,000 Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters' over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part. As a result of the underwriters' election to exercise their over-allotment option in full on June 23, 2017, 375,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
In conjunction with their investment in the Private Units, the underwriters or their designees also purchased membership interests in the Sponsor, through which the underwriters or their designees collectively have a pecuniary interest in 230,000 Founder Shares, pursuant to a separate private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement. The Sponsor beneficially owns the Founder Shares allocated to the underwriters or their designees and retains sole voting and dispositive power over such securities until the closing of a Business Combination, at which time the Sponsor will distribute the Founder Shares to the underwriters or their designees for no additional consideration. Upon receipt of the Founder Shares, the underwriters or their designees will no longer retain their ownership interests in the Sponsor.
The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until the earlier to occur of (i) one year after the completion of a Business Combination, and (ii) the date following the completion of a Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company's stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of the Company's common stock for cash, securities or other property (the "Lock-Up Period"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after its initial Business Combination, then the lock-up will terminate.
In connection with the Business Combination Agreement, as fully described in Note 1, the Sponsor deposited in escrow with a third-party escrow agent 1,406,250 of its Founder Shares that it acquired prior to the Company's Initial Public Offering (the "Escrowed Shares"). See Note 10.
Related Party Advances
Through December 31, 2019, the Sponsor advanced an aggregate of $1,209,512 to fund working capital purposes and Business Combination expenses, of which $840,482 was advanced during the year ended December 31, 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company repaid an aggregate amount of $100,000 of such advances and an aggregate amount of $314,509 was converted into loans under the March Promissory Note described below. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, advances of $795,003 were outstanding.
Administrative Service Fee
The Company agreed, commencing on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of the Company's consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. For the each of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $30,000 of administrative service fees and for each of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $60,000 of administrative service fees. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, an aggregate of $276,000 and $286,000, respectively, is payable. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $286,000 of the amounts due for such fees are included as loans under the March Promissory Note described below and included in the convertible promissory note related party in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Convertible Promissory Note
On March 15, 2019, the Company issued the Sponsor the March Promissory Note, pursuant to which outstanding advances in the aggregate amount of $314,509 were converted into loans under the March Promissory Note and including the $573,433 Initial Loan from the Sponsor. The March Promissory Note is unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the liquidation of the Company. Up to $1,000,000 of the loans under the March Promissory Note may be converted, at the Sponsor's discretion, into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Units. Through June 30, 2020, the Sponsor advanced the Company $371,696 under the Expense Reimbursement Agreement (as defined in Note 5), of which $33,877 was advanced during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Through June 30, 2020, the Company repaid $272,337 of the March Promissory Note, of which $62,922 was repaid during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
In connection with the Term Sheet entered into on April 10, 2019, 180 paid, on the Company's behalf, the Sponsor $650,000 to purchase such obligations owed to the Sponsor under the March Promissory Note (see Note 4). In December 2019, the Tyche Note was transferred to 180.
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there was $337,301 and $366,346, respectively, outstanding under the March Promissory Note and no amounts outstanding under the Tyche Note.
Related Party Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company's officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required ("Working Capital Loans"). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Units. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $337,301 and $366,346, respectively, outstanding under the March Promissory Note (see Note 4). |
