Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Share Exchange Agreement
As previously disclosed, on November 15, 2023, Mega Matrix Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire sixty percent (60%) of the voting capital stock of Yuder Pte, Ltd. (“Yuder”), a company that operates FlexTV, a streaming platform specializing in short dramas, in exchange for 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001.
On January 7, 2024, the Company entered into and closed a definitive Share Exchange Agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) with FunVerse Holding Limited (“FunVerse”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and the sole parent company of Yuder, and the shareholders of FunVerse (collectively, “Sellers”). Before the closing of the Exchange Agreement, the Sellers held 85,625,000 ordinary shares of FunVerse, $0.0001 par value per share, which represents all of the issued and outstanding shares of FunVerse. Under the Exchange Agreement, Sellers will exchange 51,375,000 of their FunVerse’s shares for 1,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 (“Common Stock”), as per terms and conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”), free and clear of all liens (other than potential restrictions on resale under applicable securities laws), which the parties agreed is valued at $2,175,000, or $1.45 per share of Common Stock. Following the Share Exchange, the Company owned sixty percent (60%) of capital stock of FunVerse.
Each Seller has represented that it is either (i) an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or (ii) not a “U.S. person” as that term is defined pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent a registration statement or exemption from registration.
The Exchange Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties, and the closing is subject to customary closing conditions.
Shareholders Agreement
In connection with the Share Exchange, the Company, FunVerse and Sellers entered into a Shareholders Agreement (“Shareholders Agreement”) on January 7, 2024. Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement: (i) Key Holders are subject to transfer restrictions, where shares may not be transferred without specific permissions outlined in the Shareholders Agreement or without obtaining prior consent from FunVerse; (ii) FunVerse, and secondarily the Company, are granted a right of first refusal to purchase shares from any Key Holder intending to transfer, except in cases specifically allowed by the Shareholders Agreement; (iii) the Company is granted co-sale rights, enabling it to sell its shares alongside the Key Holder, conditional upon the execution or waiver of the right of first refusal described above; and (iv) the Company, as the holder of 60% of the outstanding shares of FunVerse, is entitled to appoint two (2) out of the three (3) directors to the board of directors of the FunVerse. Additionally, the Shareholders Agreement includes other standard rights and provisions, such as the right of first offer and market stand-off restrictions applicable to all shareholders.
The foregoing descriptions of the Exchange Agreement and Shareholders Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Exchange Agreement and Shareholders Agreement, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
