Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Amendment to Merger Agreement
As previously announced, on January 6, 2013, AllDigital Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“AllDigital”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Broadcast International, Inc., a Utah corporation (“Broadcast”) and Alta Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Broadcast (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement, as previously amended on April 9, 2013, contemplates that, assuming the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent to closing, Merger Sub will be merged with and into AllDigital, and AllDigital will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Broadcast.
On June 30, 2013, Broadcast, Merger Sub and AllDigital entered into a Second Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amendment”). The Amendment increases the percentage of Broadcast common stock, calculated on a modified fully diluted basis, that AllDigital security holders will receive in the merger from 54% to 58% and modified a number of the closing conditions to the merger. Namely, (i) the amount ofadjusted working capital Broadcast is required to have immediately prior to closing of the merger was changed from equal to or greater than a deficit of $1,000,000 to equal to or greater than zero; (ii) the monthly net cash flow Broadcast is required to have for the thirty days preceding the merger was changed from $50,000 to a monthly deficit of $10,000; and (iii) a new condition was added requiring Broadcast to have post-merger financing commitments in place for the purchase of no less than $1.5 million, and no more than $3.5 million, of Broadcast common stock with terms and investors approved by AllDigital. Additionally, the Amendment modified the “End Date” (a date upon which either party may terminate the Merger Agreement if the merger has not been consummated) from July 31, 2013 to October 31, 2013; the Amendment eliminated one of the existing Broadcast directors from the schedule of post-closing directors and, as a result, the Merger Agreement identifies the post-closing directors as Donald A. Harris, Paul Summers, David Williams and up to two additional directors mutually approved by Broadcast and AllDigital prior to closing of the merger; and the Amendment changes the ratio for the reverse stock split to be proposed by Broadcast to its shareholders from a 10 to 1 reverse stock split to a 15 to 1 reverse stock split.
The above summary of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.
Employment Agreement with Konstantin Wilms
On June 28, 2013, AllDigital entered into an employment agreement with Konstantin Wilms, its Chief Architect.The employment agreement provides for a minimum salary of $160,200 per annum, which amount is required to be increased by a minimum of 5% within 60 days of the date AllDigital and its consolidated affiliates achieves a cash and modified accounts receivable level of $3,500,000. Mr. Wilms is entitled to an annual bonus target opportunity equal to $10,000 upon achievement of certain performance measures on a quarterly basis, and standard health and other benefits. The employment agreement includes a provision relating to the protection of confidential information, a covenant by the officer to work and reside in Orange County, California, a non-competition covenant during the term of his employment and a 12-month non-solicitation covenant. Under the employment agreement, if Mr. Wilms’ employment is terminated by him for good reason, which includes, (a) a material change in the terms and conditions of his employment, (b) a change in the principal place of employment materially increasing his commute time, or (c) any other event that is a functional equivalent of an involuntary termination and which falls within the safe-harbor provisions related to termination for good reason set forth in the regulations implementing Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, he is entitled to a severance benefit equal to his base salary and health benefits for one year. If his employment is terminated by AllDigital without cause, he is entitled to a severance benefit equal to his base salary and health benefits for one year. He is not entitled to any severance if his employment is terminated at any time by AllDigital with cause or by him without good reason. The employment agreement also includes a provision under which Mr. Wilms’ stock options granted after May 31, 2013 automatically accelerate upon a change of control, other than the proposed merger with Broadcast.
The above summary of Mr. Wilms’ employment agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this report.
Escrow and Repurchase Agreement
On June 28, 2013, AllDigital entered into an Escrow and Contribution Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with an affiliate of Steve Smith, a director and its Vice President of Network Services, Tim Napoleon, a director and its Chief Strategist, and Parr Brown Gee & Loveless, P.C., acting as escrow agent. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, each of Steve Smith and Tim Napoleon have agreed to deposit with the escrow agent certificates representing 600,000 shares of AllDigital common stock, together with stock powers in favor of AllDigital. At or about the same time as the Escrow Agreement was signed, AllDigital agreed to grant incentive stock options to each of John Walpuck, its Chief Financial Officer, and Konstantin Wilms, its Chief Architect, for the purchase of 600,000 shares of AllDigital common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of AllDigital’s common stock on the third business day following the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K reporting the Amendment. These options vest over 30 months, with one-third becoming exercisable every ten months. As the options vest, the escrow agent is authorized under the Escrow Agreement to transfer an equivalent number of shares to AllDigital, pro rata from the shares contributed by Smith and Napoleon. If the holders of the options leave AllDigital before the options vest, any shares remaining with the escrow agent are to be returned to Messrs. Smith and Napoleon, with each receiving 50%. The intent of the transaction is to provide additional incentives to John Walpuck and Konstantin Wilms without diluting the other stockholders of AllDigital.
The above summary of the Escrow Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this report.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangement of Certain Officers
On June 28, 2013, AllDigital amended and restated each of the employment agreements for the following AllDigital executives: Paul Summers, John Walpuck, Tim Napoleon and Steve Smith. The purpose of entering into the Amended and Restated Employment Agreements was to add to each agreement a provision providing that within sixty (60) days of the date that AllDigital, or its ultimate parent company, if applicable, first achieves a minimum of cash and accounts receivable of at least $3.5 million dollars, the Board of AllDigital or AllDigital’s ultimate parent company, as applicable, will increase the executive’s base salary by an amount not less than the amount obtained by multiplying the executive’s then current base salary by fifteen percent (15%).
The above summary of the Amended and Restated Employment Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of agreement filed as Exhibit 10.4 or Exhibit 10.5 to this report.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Effective June 28, 2013, AllDigital’s Board adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws: The purpose of amending and restating the bylaws was to delete a provision requiringnon-consenting shareholders to receive 10 days advanced written notice after the signing of a majority written consent before a transaction can be closed because such provision is inconsistent with Nevada law. Additionally certain incorrect references to Utah law were modified to reference Nevada law since Nevada is the jurisdiction of incorporation for AllDigital.
The above summary of the changes reflected in the Amended and Restated Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this report.
