The information below in Item 2.01 regarding the Registration Rights Agreement and the Wells Fargo Guaranty Agreements are incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 1.01.
 
 
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
On October 1, 2017, Novume Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Novume” or the “Company”), completed its previously announced acquisition (the “Mergers”) of Global Technical Services, Inc. a Texas corporation (“GTS”) and Global Contract Professionals, Inc., a Texas corporation (“GCP”) pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 21, 2017 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Novume, Global Technical Services Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Novume (“GTS Merger Sub”), Global Contract Professionals Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Novume (“GCP Merger Sub”), GTS, GCP, and the sole stockholder of GTS and GCP (the “Stockholder”), as previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 22, 2017 (the “Merger Agreement Form 8-K”).
 
Upon the consummation of the Mergers, the Stockholder received (a) $750,000 in cash, subject to certain reductions in accordance with the Merger Agreement, (b) 300,000 shares of Novume common stock (the “Novume Common Stock”) and (c) 240,861 shares of Novume Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Novume Series B Preferred Stock”) (together, the “Merger Consideration”). The amount of shares of Novume Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Stockholder was tied to the five (5) day VWAP (volume-weighted average price as defined in the Certificate of Designations creating the Series B Preferred Stock) of Novume Common Stock prior to October 1, 2017, which was approximately $1.9713 per share.
 
In addition to the Merger Consideration, Novume paid $365,036.55 to satisfy in full all of the outstanding debt of GTS and GCP at closing, except for certain intercompany debt and ordinary course debt, and amounts due under (a) the Secured Account Purchase Agreement dated August 22, 2012 by and between GTS and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “GTS Wells Fargo Credit Facility”) and (b) the Secured Account Purchase Agreement dated August 22, 2012 by and between GCP and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “GCP Wells Fargo Credit Facility” and together with the GTS Wells Fargo Credit Facility, the “Wells Fargo Credit Facilities”), which will remain in effect following the consummation of the Mergers. In connection with the Wells Fargo Credit Facilities, Novume has delivered to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, general continuing guaranties dated September 29, 2017 and effective October 3, 2017 (the “Wells Fargo Guaranty Agreements”), guaranteeing the Guaranteed Obligations of GTS and GCP (as defined in the Wells Fargo Guaranty Agreements) under the Wells Fargo Credit Facilities, and has paid $175,000 in the aggregate to reduce the current borrowed amounts under the Wells Fargo Credit Facilities as of the closing date. Copies of the Wells Fargo Guaranty Agreements are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
 
Furthermore, as additional consideration for the cancellation of the Promissory Note (the “Promissory Note”) issued by GTS for the benefit of G&W Ventures, Inc., Novume issued 75,000 shares of Novume Common Stock to G&W Ventures, Inc. upon the consummation of the Mergers.
 
The shares of Novume Common Stock and Novume Series B Preferred Stock issued in the Mergers were issued in reliance upon the exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder

Specifically, following the Company’s initial public offering, the Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to include the Registrable Securities in any registration statement that the Company proposes to register any of its securities for its own account or on behalf of any of its other stockholders (other than in connection with a registration relating solely to the sale of shares to the Company’s employees).
