Item 1.01 Entry into a
Material Definitive Agreement; Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of
Assets; Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities
On October 25, 2004, Widepoint
Corporation (WidePoint or the Company) completed the acquisition
of Operational Research Consultants, Inc. (ORC), a privately held information
technology and engineering firm providing mission-critical sensitive and strategic
information security solutions to the United States Government. To finance the
acquisition, the Company completed a convertible preferred financing with Barron Partners,
LP, an accredited investor, and utilized a line of credit which WidePoint maintains with
RBC-Centura. WidePoint entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with ORC and its
stockholders to effectuate the acquisition, and entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement with Barron in connection with the
financing.
ORC specializes in IT integration and
secure authentication processes and software, providing services to the Department of
Defense, General Services Administration, and associated Federal Agencies and trading
partners. ORC was at the forefront of implementing Public Key Infrastructure technologies.
Therefore, ORC maintains secure facilities and is currently the only commercial credential
service provider (at Assurance Levels 1, 2, 3 and 4) to the Federal Government,
contractors to the Department of Defense and the United States Government, and individuals
transacting electronic business with or for the United States Government. Secure
authentication is a key element to the success of many secured integration e-Government
initiatives emerging in the government sector.
ORC is currently the only External
Certificate Authority for the United States Government. As such, it is authorized to issue
all permissible certificate types and services in accordance with Defense Information
Systems Agency and National Security Agency standards, necessary for the interoperable,
secure exchange of information between U.S. Governmental agencies, contractors, and
international allies such as members of NATO. The Federal market for secured
authentication software and e-Government IT initiatives collectively represent major
growth markets within which ORC is prominently positioned.
Pursuant to the Stock Purchase
Agreement between WidePoint, ORC and the stockholders of ORC, WidePoint agreed to purchase
and acquire all of ORCs outstanding common stock from the ORC stockholders. In
consideration for the ORC stock, WidePoint will pay the shareholders of ORC an aggregate
of $5,000,000 payable in a combination of cash, promissory note and WidePoint common
stock, less a receivables holdback. The receivables holdback will be held in escrow and
released at certain milestone dates, over a three year period pursuant to a formula
negotiated between the parties.
The aggregate consideration to be
paid by WidePoint to the ORC shareholders shall be adjusted in the event that ORCs
2004 revenue is less than $8,000,000 and for any set-offs, recoupments and/or payments of
losses. The agreement also provides a clawback provision in the event that the losses or
indemnity amounts exceed the receivables holdback.
The convertible preferred financing
with Barron was for $3,580,000, under a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and related
agreements. Net proceeds from the offering after estimated costs and expenses, including
fees of finders and agents, were approximately $3,000,000. The Company issued 2,045,714
shares of Series A Preferred Stock of WidePoint. The Series A Preferred Stock is
convertible into an aggregate of 20,457,140 shares of common stock of WidePoint at a
conversion rate equal to $0.175 per share. In addition, WidePoint issued to Barron
warrants to purchase up to an additional 10,228,571 shares of common stock of WidePoint at
an exercise price of $0.40 per common share. The shares of WidePoint common stock which
may be acquired by Barron upon its conversion of its Series A Preferred Stock and/or the
exercise of its warrant are subject to limitations which restrict the ability of Barron
and its affiliates to acquire shares as a result of which Barron owns more than a total of
4.99% of the outstanding shares of WidePoint common stock at any time, which restriction
may be removed upon 61 days notice to the Company by Barron, but in the event Barron
elects to remove such restriction, then Barron and its affiliates can only vote 75% of the
shares of WidePoint common stock held by Barron and its affiliates.
Under a related Registration Rights
Agreement between Barron and the Company, WidePoint is obligated to file a registration
statement within 60 days of the closing covering the resale of the shares of WidePoint
common stock issuable upon conversion and/or exercise of the Series A Preferred Stock and
the warrant issued to Barron. WidePoint filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with
the SEC for this purpose on January 5, 2005. WidePoint has agreed to use its best efforts
to cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC within 120 days of
the closing date. If the registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC in
the period from 180 days following the closing date through two years following the date
thereof, subject to permissible blackout periods and registration maintenance periods,
then in such events WidePoint will be required to pay Barron penalties a one-time payment,
as liquidated damages, in the amount of $100,000.
The private equity financing
described herein was made pursuant to the exemption from the registration provisions of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506
of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The securities issued have not been registered
under the Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or
an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
