Other Events
On February 8, 2010, BBV Vietnam S.E.A. Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) entered into definitive stock purchase agreements with certain funds managed by Centurion Credit Opportunities LLC (“Centurion”) and Victory Park Capital Advisors, LLC (“Victory Park”), and Migami, Inc. (“Migami”), pursuant to which such funds (collectively, such purchasers, the “Investors”) may purchase up to an aggregate of 3,622,502 shares of the Company’s common stock from third parties prior to the Company’s Special Meeting of Stockholders held to vote upon a proposal to continue the life of the Company until February 13, 2011 (the “Extension Proposal”). The Investors are not affiliates of the Company, its officers and directors and/or their respective affiliates or Migami, the target with which the Company has entered into a letter of intent with respect to its initial business combination, or its officers and directors and/or their respective affiliates. It is anticipated that Investors will effect purchases of the Company common stock through independent, privately negotiated transactions with third parties who are institutions or other sophisticated investors that have voted against or indicated an intention to vote against the Extension Proposal which is described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 29, 2010.
Pursuant to the agreement with the Investors, on the earliest to occur of: (i) the first date any funds are disbursed from the Company’s trust account, except if the Extension Proposal is approved, for disbursements to Company stockholders who exercise their conversion rights on or prior to February 12, 2010, (ii) February 18, 2010 if the Extension Proposal is not approved, (iii) the fifth business day after the proposed business combination with Migami is abandoned, (iv) the third business day after the proposed business combination with Migami is approved by the Company’s stockholders and (v) February 22, 2010 (subject to extension to April 19, 2010 if certain funds are deposited by Migami into an escrow account for the benefit of the investors), the Company has agreed to purchase from the Investors the shares of the Company common stock purchased from third parties at a price equal to the aggregate purchase price paid to acquire the common stock plus 2.25%, provided such sale occurs within 30 days of purchase. If the purchase occurs after the 30th day from the date of purchase, the Company and Migami will pay an additional amount equal to 2.25% of the aggregate purchase price for each 30 day period (prorated for the actual numbers of days the shares are held). Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the business combination with Migami is not consummated, the Company shall not be obligated to pay the Investors more than the liquidation price per share. Additionally, Migami shall pay a cash fee of $170,000 and the Company shall deliver to the Investors 275,000 shares of its common stock in connection with the execution of the agreement, 225,000 additional shares in the event the proposed business combination with Migami is consummated any time between the 31st and 60th day following execution of the agreement and an additional 200,000 shares on each 30th day thereafter (payable on a pro rata basis for any periods less than 30 days) until the day of the stockholder meeting at which the business combination with Migami is voted on. All such additional shares must be delivered prior to such stockholder meeting.
The Investor purchases from third parties, if made, will increase the likelihood that holders of a majority of shares of the Company’s common stock will vote in favor of the Extension Proposal and that holders of less than 30% of the Company’s common stock issued in connection with its initial public offering will vote against the Extension Proposal and seek conversion of their shares of Company common stock into cash in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation.
Additional Information
The Company and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies for the special meeting of stockholders to be held to approve the Extension Proposal. Information regarding the Company's directors and executive officers is available in its Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. No person other than the Company has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations on behalf of the Company in connection with the extension, and if given or made, such other information or representations must not be relied upon as having been made or authorized by the Company.
