Item 2.01
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
In September 2016, the Company announced that it entered into an Amalgamation Agreement (the “Amalgamation Agreement”) with emergeIT Inc., an Ontario corporation, which does business as “ShipTime” (“emergeIT” or “ShipTime”) to acquire emergeIT and two new PAID subsidiaries. emergeIT is a leading cloud based shipping platform bringing individuals small and medium sized businesses together with many of the world’s leading carriers to save time and money. A copy of the Amalgamation Agreement is set forth as Exhibit 10.1. The Closing for the Amalgamation Agreement occurred on December 19, 2016, and the amalgamation will be effective on December 30, 2016.
 
Description of emergeIT
 
emergeIT’s platform provides its members with the ability to quote, process, track and dispatch shipments while getting preferred rates on packages and skidded (LTL) freight shipments throughout North America and around the world. In addition to these features, ShipTime also provides what it refers to as “Heroic Multilingual Customer Support.” In this capacity, ShipTime acts as an advocate on behalf of its clients in resolving matters concerning orders and shipping.  With an increasing focus and service offering for e-commerce merchants; which includes online shopping carts, inventory management, payment services, client prospecting and retention software, emergeIT can help merchants worldwide grow and scale their businesses.  emergeIT generates monthly recurring revenue through transactions and “software as a service” (SAAS) offerings. It currently serves in excess of 30,000 members in North America. The company has plans to expand its services into Europe and then worldwide.
 
Transaction Structure; Consideration to emergeIT Shareholders
 
Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement the Company formed a new subsidiary under Canadian law (“Callco”). The new subsidiary formed its own Canadian subsidiary (“Exchangeco”), and Callco is the sole shareholder of Exchangeco. Both Callco and Exchangeco are incorporated in Ontario under the province’s Business Corporations Act. Effective December 30, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), Exchangeco will merge (amalgamate) with emergeIT so that as of the effective date, the Company will own, indirectly through Callco, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of emergeIT. At that time, the amalgamated entity will be renamed “ShipTime Canada Inc.” and will be the operating company with respect to the emergeIT assets.
 
emergeIT is privately held by 13 holders. The emergeIT holders own “Class A” and “Class B” common shares, which will convert into “exchangeable shares” of ShipTime Canada Inc. in the merger. Exchangeable shares are rights to the Company’s common stock and preferred stock. These rights can be exercised by the conversion of the exchangeable shares into shares of common and preferred stock of the Company, in accordance with an Exchange and Call Rights Agreement, described below.
 
emergeIT Class A common shares and Class B common shares will be converted into exchangeable shares with rights to receive 447 shares of the Company’s common stock and 3,109, provided that upon the reverse/forward split described below, the right shall be to receive 45 shares of the Company’s common stock and 311 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock. As of the effective date, outstanding emergeIT options and warrants will be replaced by exchangeable shares in the same manner as emergeIT’s Class A and Class B common shares.
 
As of the Effective Date, the former holders of emergeIT will hold rights to approximately 79.5% of all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, and the current stockholders of the Company will own approximately 20.5% of all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company.
 
Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations effective on December 30, 2016 which sets aside 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock holders have no voting rights and have an aggregate liquidation value of approximately $11,581,000. The Preferred Stock also carries a coupon payment obligation of 1.5% per year calculated by taking the 30-day average closing price for an equal number of shares of common stock for the month immediately preceding the coupon payment date, which is made annually. Payout of the coupon may be made out of existing cash or in shares of Series A Preferred stock of the Company. The Series A Preferred Stock have no voting or conversion rights. If purchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired (other than conversion), the preferred stock may be reissued
 
 
 
 
The Amalgamation Agreement includes representations and warranties and other covenants by both the Company and emergeIT. In the event that either party is in breach, the non-breaching party may have an indemnification claim. The Company will hold back up to 2,680,000 shares of its preferred stock to satisfy any claims of the other party, provided that upon the reverse/forward split described below, the right shall be to receive 268,000 shares of Series A Preferred Shares or common stock of PAID, Inc. If after the Effective Date the shares are issued to the emergeIT shareholders, the current Company stockholders percentage ownership would be diluted. Generally claims for indemnification must be made within 12 months after the amalgamation or merger.
 
Exchange and Call Rights Agreement
 
Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, as of the Effective Date, the existing holders of emergeIT will exchange their shares in emergeIT into “exchangeable shares” of the amalgamated company, ShipTime Inc. The holders of ShipTime Inc. will have those rights described in its organizational documents. ShipTime Inc.’s authorized capital will be composed of preferred shares, and common shares. The preferred shares are exchangeable into a right to receive approximately 447 shares of the Company’s preferred stock and 3,109 shares of the Company’s common stock, provided that upon the reverse/forward split described below, the right shall be to receive 45 shares of the Company’s common stock and 311 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock. Any and all outstanding common shares will be owned by Callco, the Company’s direct subsidiary. As a result, Callco will have the only voting shares of ShipTime Canada Inc.
 
As of the Effective Date, holders of ShipTime Inc. shares have the same dividend and distribution rights as holders of Company shares, and if Company shares are subdivided or in the event of a Company stock dividend, the exchangeable shares will be equally subdivided, as exchangeable shares are intended to be economically the same as shares of common or preferred stock of the Company. As of the Effective Date, the Company has a “liquidation call right” in the event of proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of ShipTime Canada Inc. Absent prior events, the Company will redeem the exchangeable shares on the fifth anniversary whereby the Company will redeem the exchangeable shares for shares of the Company’s preferred stock and common stock. By agreement, exchangeable shares also may be purchased by ShipTime Canada Inc. for cancellation. The Company also has a right to call the shares in the event of a change in the applicable laws.
 
The holders of exchangeable shares have an “automatic exchange right” in the event any bankruptcy or insolvency or in general, related proceedings, of ShipTime Canada Inc. or the Company. The exchangeable shares would at such time be converted automatically into that number of shares of common stock and preferred stock of the Company at the agreed upon conversion ratio. Moreover, Callco will have an overriding call right to purchase some or all of the exchangeable shares. This mechanism will be triggered with the automatic exchange right and is necessary to comply with Canadian tax laws. The exercise of this call right does not alter the outcome of the exchangeable share transaction.
 
A copy of the form of Exchange and Call Rights Agreement is set forth as Exhibit 10.2. A form of description of the rights of ShipTime Canada Inc. shareholders is set for as Exhibit 10.3.
 
Support Agreement
 
Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, the Company entered into a Support Agreement with the combined entity as of the Effective Date. The Support Agreement generally provides that the Company will treat holders of Exchangeable Shares substantially similar, or economically equivalent, to holders of Company stock.
 
As such, under the Support Agreement, the Company cannot declare or pay any dividend or other distribution on Company stock unless ShipTime Canada Inc. simultaneously declares or pays the dividend or distribution on the Exchangeable Shares and has sufficient money or other assets to meet these requirements. In turn, the ShipTime Canada Inc. would effect a corresponding dividend or distribution of its securities related to the Exchangeable Shares. The Company also undertakes to advise ShipTime Canada Inc. of the declaration of dividend or distribution, among other similar events, and to cooperate with it to effect the dividend or distribution as of the same record and effective date.
 
 
 
 
The Company is also required in this case to segregate funds to pay for the dividend, and to reserve sufficient number of shares to permit the exchange of the Exchangeable Shares into the required number of Company shares of common stock and preferred stock.
 
The Support Agreement is also binding on any successor to the Company and with respect to any successor transaction. A copy of the form of Support Agreement is set forth as Exhibit 10.4.
 
Employment Agreement; Officer
 
At the Closing, effective as of the Effective Date, Mr. Allan Pratt entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with the Company to serve as the Company’s President and CEO. The Employment Agreement will be for an initial term through February 2020, with a base salary of US$185,000 and eligibility for a bonus as the Board of Directors determines. Bonuses may be in the form of cash, equity awards or both. Mr. Pratt will be eligible for employee and fringe benefits consistent with other employees, and equity awards adopted by the Company for its employees generally. Mr. Pratt will also have an automobile allowance of US$600 per month and mileage reimbursement for business travel at IRS rates.
 
Mr. Pratt may terminate the Employment Agreement at any time with 30 days’ notice. The Company may terminate Mr. Pratt for “cause”, which shall include willful, intentional or tortious conduct detrimental to the Company’s operations. The Company may terminate Mr. Pratt without cause upon giving 30 days’ notice, subject to a severance payment. Mr. Pratt also may terminate his employment for “good reason”, which means a material diminution in his authority, duties or responsibilities, a change in geographic location from where Mr. Pratt provides services, or any action or inaction by the Company that constitutes a breach of the employment agreement. If Mr. Pratt is terminated without cause or by Mr. Pratt for “good reason,” during the initial term, Mr. Pratt shall receive a severance payment which is three times his overall compensation of salary plus bonus, which amount decreases after two years to three times his base salary. Mr. Pratt would be subject to a two year non-compete with respect to on-line package shipping services to small businesses and retail customers in the territory of the United States and Canada.
