The following disclosure is repeated from that set forth in Amendment No. 2 to Form 8-K/A, as filed on January 7, 2005. The purpose of this Amendment No. 3 to Form 8-K/A is to effect certain revisions in the historical financial statements and pro forma information filed herewith.
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.
