·by Pensare, if (i) there has been a breach by Holdings or the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in the Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue, that would result in the failure of its closing conditions and such breach shall not have been cured or is not capable of being cured within 30 days after written notice of such breach; or (ii) the PCAOB Audited Financial Statements shall not have been delivered on or before August 2, 2019.

A copy of the Agreement is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Agreement is included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or the other parties thereto. In particular, the assertions embodied in representations and warranties by the Company, Pensare, Holdings and Merger Sub contained in the Agreement are qualified by information in the disclosure schedules provided by the Company, Pensare, Holdings and Merger Sub in connection with the signing of the Agreement. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Company, Pensare, Holdings and Merger Sub, rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, investors and security holders should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Company, Pensare, Holdings and Merger Sub.

The Lock-up Agreement

 

In connection with the Transaction, Pensare, Holdings and Navigation Capital Partners II, L.P. (“Navigation”) will enter into a Lock-up Agreement at the Closing (the “Lock-up Agreement”). Under the terms of the Lock-up Agreement, Holdings and Navigation will agree not to sell or otherwise transfer certain of the shares of Pensare Common Stock issued to Holdings in the Transactions which are beneficially owned by Navigation (or any of its permitted transferees) as specified therein. Such transfer restrictions will expire one year after the Closing or such earlier date as the founder shares held by Pensare’s initial stockholders may be released from the escrow arrangements entered into in connection with Pensare’s initial public offering.

 

Second Amended and Restated Charter

 

In connection with the Transaction, Pensare will amend and restate the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Pensare (the “A&R Charter”) to, among other things, (a) eliminate certain provisions relating to Pensare being a special purpose acquisition company that will no longer be applicable to the combined company following the Closing, (b) increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 500,000,000 and change the par value from $0.001 to $0.0001 per share, (c) increase the number of authorized shares of preferred stock from 1,000,000 to 5,000,000 and change the par value from $0.001 to $0.0001 per share, (d) create another class of directors so that there will be three classes of directors following the Closing and (e) eliminate the ability of stockholders to act by written consent (thereby requiring stockholders to act only at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders).

Non-Solicitation

 

This communication is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed Merger and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of Pensare or the Company, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Forward-looking Statements

 

This communication includes certain statements that are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding projections, estimates and forecasts of revenue and other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity and expectations, and the closing of the proposed Transactions, any private placement and Pensare’s ability to enter into definitive agreements or consummate a transaction with a potential second target company. These statements are based on various assumptions and on the current expectations of Pensare and the Company management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Pensare and the Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in the Company’s clients’ preferences, prospects and the competitive conditions prevailing in the industries in which the Company operates; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed Transactions, including the risk that the approval of the stockholders of Pensare for the proposed Transactions is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Transactions, including as a result of a delay in consummating the proposed Transactions or a delay or difficulty in integrating the businesses of Pensare and the Company; the amount of redemption requests made by Pensare’s stockholders; Pensare’s ability to enter into definitive agreements or consummate a transaction with a second potential target company; those factors discussed in Pensare’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 under the heading “Risk Factors,” and other documents of Pensare filed, or to be filed, with the SEC. If the risks materialize or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Pensare nor the Company presently know or that Pensare and the Company currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Pensare’s and the Company’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. Pensare and the Company anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Pensare’s and the Company’s assessments to change. However, while Pensare and the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Pensare and the Company specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Pensare’s and the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
