Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc.

28 West Grand Avenue, Suite 3

Montvale, New Jersey 07645
 

Gentlemen:

 

As you know, on June 21, 2018, BNN Technology PLC (the “Company” or “BNN”) purchased 1,363,000 shares of Micronet Enertec Technologies (including its subsidiaries and affiliates, “Micronet”) common stock from D.L. Capital Ltd, an entity controlled by David Lucatz, Micronet’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. This Letter of Intent (“Letter of Intent”) outlines the general terms and conditions pursuant to which BNN, or any of its affiliates, proposes to sell certain to-be-identified assets to Micronet as set forth in the proposed terms and conditions in Exhibit A hereto (the “Proposed Transaction”). This proposal is subject to the terms and conditions of this Letter of Intent, including the negotiation and execution of a mutually acceptable definitive agreement governing the Proposed Transaction (the “Definitive Agreement”).

 

This Letter of Intent is intended to express only a mutual indication of interest in the Proposed Transaction and does not represent any legally binding commitment or obligation on the part of the parties with respect to the Proposed Transaction, except with respect to following items “Items” set forth in Exhibit A: Governing Law & Jurisdiction, Exclusivity and Termination, Confirmatory Due Diligence, Confidentiality, Transaction Costs, and no party hereto will assert otherwise. Any such agreement by the parties shall only be provided for in a Definitive Agreement mutually agreed upon and executed by the parties.

 

As provided in Exhibit A, BNN is proposing to, amongst certain other terms and conditions to:

 

1.Have a subsidiary of Micronet purchase certain assets (the “Reverse Merger”) from each of BNN and a third party, which is a transaction technology platform (“Third Party”), in exchange for cash and the issuance of shares of common stock of Micronet;

 

2.Commence a third party cash tender offer of at least $1.65 per share for up to an additional approximately 35.2% of the Micronet’s outstanding shares of common stock as of the date hereof (the “Tender Offer”) so that following the Tender Offer BNN would own in the aggregate at least 50.1% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Micronet;

 

3.Permit current stockholders of Micronet to choose to retain their common stock or participate in the Tender Offer. Following the Reverse Merger, Micronet will spin-off its current assets to all Micronet stockholders who held common stock post-Tender Offer, but pre-Reverse Merger, thereby allowing all such stockholders to retain the entire value of the current assets of Micronet, as well as receiving the additional value in the post-Reverse Merger company.

Reverse Merger and Parent Public Company Name: Subject to legal and accounting structuring advice, a reverse merger in which two new wholly owned subsidiaries of Micronet formed for purposes of the transaction (“Merger Sub”) will each merge with and into one of the OPCOs, with the OPCOs surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Micronet, the parent company (the “Parent Public Company”) with a public listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Reverse Merger”).  Alternatively, BNN and the Third Party may sell (by way of asset sale or stock sale) discrete subsidiaries, businesses or divisions of BNN or the Third Party to Micronet or Merger Sub (such alternative transaction structure is equally referred to herein as the “Reverse Merger”).  The name of the Parent Public Company shall be changed at the closing of the Reverse Merger (the “Reverse Merger Closing”) to a name more identifiable Jwith the post-Reverse Merger Closing company.

Prior to the Reverse Merger Closing, BNN shall make a third party cash tender offer of at least $1.65 per share for up to an additional approximately 35.2% of the Micronet’s outstanding shares of common stock as of the date hereof (the “Tender Offer”) so that following the Tender Offer BNN would, assuming the tender is fully subscribed, own in the aggregate at least 50.1% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Micronet.

 

Upon the Reverse Merger Closing, the pre-Reverse Merger stockholders of Micronet, but post-Tender Offer stockholders (the "Micronet Stockholders") shall retain such number of shares (the "Micronet Shares") of common stock of the post-transaction Parent Public Company equal to, subject to due diligence and discussion of outstanding exercisable or convertible securities, warrants and options, an equity valuation of approximately $15.1 million on a post-Reverse Merger basis of the Parent Public Company (the "Public Company Stock") upon the Closing Date (referred herein). This calculation assumes that at the Closing of the Reverse Merger there is no outstanding debt of any kind of Micronet.

 

BNN Consideration

 

The consideration to be paid at Closing to BNN will be comprised of shares of Public Company Stock with a value based on the aggregate enterprise value of the BNN business being sold, calculated, subject to diligence, as ~$118.4 million, minus the assumption of ~$8.4 million of expected convertible debt plus ~$20.0 million of expected cash and cash equivalents, resulting in an aggregate equity value of the Public Company Stock to be issued to BNN of approximately $130.0 million (the “BNN Equity Value”). BNN shall be issued Public Company Stock (the “BNN Shares”) in connection with the Reverse Merger in the amount of the BNN Equity Value.

  

The BNN Shares shall consist of shares of the Parent Public Company that are duly authorized, validly issued, non-assessable, unrestricted and without legends, free from all liens, taxes and charges. The number of BNN Shares to be issued shall be derived by dividing (i) the BNN Equity Value by (ii) the negotiated value per share of common stock of Micronet (the “Micronet Valuation”).

 

Third Party Consideration

 

The consideration to be paid to the Third Party will be based on a total enterprise value of the Third Party business being sold, subject to diligence, of $162.0 million.

Upon the execution of the Definitive Agreements, Micronet (in conjunction with BNN and its Representatives (as defined below)) will raise approximately $26.0M - $36.0M (to be held in escrow) from both existing BNN investors and new investors in a private placement, with attached registration rights, if necessary (the “PIPE”).  The PIPE will take the form of equity, equity-linked and/or convertible promissory notes with customary terms to be negotiated (the “PIPE Securities”). The closing of the PIPE and the release of the PIPE proceeds will be subject to stockholder approval and the meeting of all of the closing conditions of the Definitive Agreements. At the closing of the PIPE, the proceeds from the issuance of the PIPE Securities will be used (a) to pay the Additional Third Party Cash (As defined below), (b) to pay fees and expenses related to the PIPE Securities and (c) for working capital purposes of the post-Reverse Merger company.  The holders of the PIPE Securities will not participate in the spin-off. The securities issued in the PIPE will dilute the stockholders of the Company, the Third Party and Micronet pro rata based on their respective valuations.

 

Upon Closing, the consideration to be paid to the Third Party will include (a) approximately $28.0 million from the proceeds of the PIPE (the “Initial Third Party Cash”), (b) an additional cash payment of up to $22.0 million from the balance sheet of BNN (the “Additional Third Party Cash”), (c) the issuance of either a convertible note or convertible preferred stock to the Third Party in an amount equal to approximately $22.0 million (the “Third Party Convertible Security”) and (d) shares of Public Company Stock with a value based on the net enterprise value of the Third Party business being sold, calculated, subject to diligence, as $162.0 million (the total enterprise value), minus the value of the Initial Third Party Cash, minus the Additional Third Party Cash, minus the value of the Third Party Convertible Security and plus $0.0 million of expected cash on hand, resulting in an aggregate equity value of the Public Company Stock to be issued to the Third Party of approximately $90.0 million (the “Third Party Equity Value”).  The Third Party will be delivered with a zero debt balance. The Third Party shall be issued Public Company Stock (the “Third Party Shares”) in connection with the Reverse Merger in the amount of the Third Party Equity Value. 

 

The Third Party Shares shall consist of shares of the Parent Public Company that are duly authorized, validly issued, non-assessable, unrestricted and without legends, free from all liens, taxes and charges.  The number of Third Party Shares to be issued shall be derived by dividing (i) the Third Party Equity Value by (ii) the Micronet Valuation.
