Agreement and Plan of Merger with WebTegrity, LLC, and Parscale Digital, Inc.

 

On November 15, 2017, CloudCommerce, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with WebTegrity, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“WebTegrity”), Kori Ashton (the “Sole Member”), and Parscale Digital, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which WebTegrity merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Sole Member received ten thousand (10,000) shares (the “Stock Consideration”) of the Company’s newly designated Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”), with a stated value of $100 per share, in exchange for the surrender of his 100% membership interests in WebTegrity. The Articles of Merger and the Certificate of Merger were filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada and the Secretary of State of the State of Texas, respectively, on November 15, 2017 (the “Effective Time”) and at that time, the separate legal existence of WebTegrity ceased, and Merger Sub became the surviving company in the Merger and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Nevada.

 

At the Effective Time, automatically by virtue of the Merger, each membership interests of WebTegrity issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Series E Preferred Stock and the Company issued to the Sole Member 10,000 shares of its Series E Preferred Stock. Certificates representing the Stock Consideration shall be delivered to the Sole Member no later than ten days after the Effective Time pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and upon surrender of certificates or other evidence of the Sole Member’s membership interest in WebTegrity.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Sole Member has agreed to a covenant not to compete subject to the terms and conditions in the Merger Agreement for a period of four (4) years following the Effective Time (the “Non-Competition Period”). The Sole Member further agreed that during the Non-Competition Period, he will not directly or indirectly solicit or agree to service for his benefit or the benefit of any third-party, any of WebTegrity’s, the Company’s, or Merger Sub’s customers.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, during the period beginning on the Effective Time and ending on the thirty-six (36) month anniversary thereof, the Sole Member will not directly or indirectly, (i) offer, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell, hedge, pledge, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any portion of the Stock Consideration, or any shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Stock Consideration (collectively the “Lock-Up Securities”), beneficially owned, within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by such holder on the Effective Date, or hereafter acquired or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of any portion of the Lock-Up Securities.

 

Each of the parties to the Merger Agreement have made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement.

 

Certificate of Designations of Series E Preferred Stock

 

As set forth above, the Company designated and issued 10,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock to the Sole Member. The holder(s) of the Series E Preferred Stock will have a priority over all of the shares of Common Stock on liquidation or sale of the Company (but are subject to the liquidation rights of the Company’s outstanding Series A, B, C and D Preferred Stock), at an amount equal to One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) for each such share of the Series E Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions or stock dividends with respect to such shares). Except as required by applicable law, no dividends will be payable on the Series E Preferred Stock.

 

Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of Series E Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. Each share of Series E Preferred Stock is convertible into two thousand five hundred (2,000) shares of the Company’s fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as adjusted. The Series E Preferred Stock shall contain the respective

rights, privileges and designations as are set forth in the Certificate of Designations, Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series E Preferred Stock appended hereto as Exhibit 3.1 (the “Certificate of Designation”).

The Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors and shareholders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, WebTegrity, the Sole Member or Merger Sub. The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties that the parties to the Merger Agreement made to and solely for the benefit of each other, and the assertions embodied in such representations and warranties are qualified by information contained in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties exchanged in connection with signing the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, investors and shareholders should not rely on such representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances, since they were only made as of the date of the Merger Agreement (or such other date as specified therein) and are modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules.
