SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY

NOTE 12 — SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

A. Common stock:

 

Common stock confers upon its holders the rights to receive notice to participate and vote in general meetings of the Company, and the right to receive dividends if declared.

 

B. Stock Option Plan:

 

Pursuant to our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan as amended and approved at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders in December 2018, the board of directors is authorized to award stock options to purchase shares of common stock to our officers, directors, employees and certain others, up to a total of 5,000,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustments in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar capital change. Stock based compensation amounted to $377 and $25 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

The exercise price of the options granted under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan is set by the board of directors and will not be less than the closing sale price on Nasdaq Capital Market at the grant date. As of December 31, 2018, 3,703,000 shares of common stock remain available for future awards under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan. Under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, unless determined otherwise by the board, options generally vest over a two or three year period from the date of grant and expire 10 years after the grant date. Unvested options are forfeited 90 days following the termination of employment. Any options that are forfeited before expiration become available for future grants.

 

On July 17, 2014 the Company adopted the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan pursuant to which the board of directors is authorized to issue stock options, restricted stock and other awards to officers, directors, employees, consultants and other service providers. The board of directors initially reserved 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance pursuant to awards that may be made pursuant to the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. The 2014 Stock Incentive Plan was amended in December 2018 and the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the plan was increased to 600,000 shares. The 2014 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by the stockholders on September 30, 2014 and the amendment to the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by the stockholders on December 26, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, 396,775 shares of common stock remain available for future awards under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan.

Subject to, and upon closing of the Acquisition Agreement, the securities issued upon the exercise or conversion of outstanding options will be in accordance with the terms on which they were granted initially.

 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0% for all years; expected volatility: 2018 – 37.30%; risk-free interest rate: 2018 – 2.8 %; and expected life: 2018- 6 years.

 

The Company is required to assume a dividend yield as an input in the Black-Scholes model. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s historical experience and expectation of future dividends payouts and may be subject to change in the future.

 

The Company uses historical volatility in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation - stock compensation”. The computation of volatility uses historical volatility derived from the Company’s exchange-traded shares.

 

The risk-free interest assumption is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds, issued with a remaining term equal to the expected life term of the Company’s options.

 

Pre-vesting rates forfeitures were zero based on pre-vesting forfeiture experience.

 

The Company uses the simplified method to compute the expected option term for options granted.

The total expenses of the options of Micronet recorded in 2018 amounted to $205

 

D. SEDA- Standby Equity Distribution Agreement

 

On August 22, 2017, the Company entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement, or the 2017 SEDA with YA II for the sale of up to $10 of shares of the Company’s common stock over a three-year commitment period.  Under the terms of the 2017 SEDA, the Company may from time to time, in its discretion, sell newly-issued shares of its common stock to YA II at a discount to market of 1.5%.  The Company and YA II previously entered into a prior Standby Equity Distribution Agreement on June 30, 2016, or the 2016 SEDA, for the sale of up to $2,390 of shares of the Company’s common stock over a three year period.

 

The Company is not obligated to utilize any of the $10 available under the 2017 SEDA and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties.  The total amount of funds that ultimately can be raised under the 2017 SEDA over the three year term will depend on the market price for the Company’s common stock and the number of shares actually sold. YA II is obligated under the 2017 SEDA to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock from the Company subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to the Company filing a registration statement with the SEC, to register the resale by YA II of shares of common stock sold to YA II under the 2017 SEDA, or the Registration Statement, and the SEC declaring such Registration Statement effective.

 

The 2017 SEDA does not impose any restrictions on the Company’s operating activities. During the term of the 2017 SEDA, YA II is prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to the Company’s common stock.

 

In connection with the 2017 SEDA, the Company agreed to pay YA Global II SPV, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of YA II, a commitment fee in the amount of $800, or the Commitment Fee, in the aggregate, which was to be paid in eight quarterly installments of $100, with the first installment due and payable on the fifth trading day following the execution of the SEDA. The Commitment Fee may be paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock. The company paid YA II $50 out of the first installment of the Commitment Fee.

 

On November 19, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with YA II whereby the commitment fee repayment terms were amended such that (i) $200 of the commitment fee shall be payable as follows: $50 shall be due and payable on March 31, 2018, $50 shall be due and payable on September 30, 2018, $50 shall be due and payable on March 31, 2019, and $50 shall be due and payable on September 30, 2019, and (ii) the Company shall pay the remaining $600 as follows: $90 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $3,000, $30 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $4,000, $30 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $5,000, $150 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $6,000, $50 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $7,000, $130 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $8,000, $60 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $9,000 and $60 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the 2017 SEDA shall total $10,000.

 

On November 22, 2017, Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with one investor, an affiliate of YA II, for the sale of 555,556 shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price per share of $0.90 per share in a registered direct offering for total gross proceeds of $500. The Shares were offered and sold by the Company pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-219596). The net proceeds to the Company from the offering, after deducting fees and expenses, were $495. The Company used the net proceeds of the offering to pay $25 towards the remaining balance of a commitment fee pursuant to the Third Supplemental Agreement between the Company and YA II, $150 towards the repayment of principal and interest to the June 2016 Note issued to YA II and the remaining balance for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

On May 8, 2018, the Company and YA mutually agreed to terminate the 2017 SEDA. As a result of the termination of the 2017 SEDA, the Company’s obligation to pay any and all of the remaining commitment fee owned under the 2017 SEDA was terminated.
