Settlement Agreement

 

On November 3, 2022, AMMO, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Steven F. Urvan and Susan T. Lokey (collectively with each of their respective affiliates and associates, the “Urvan Group”).

 

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Urvan Group has agreed to withdraw its notice of stockholder nomination of its seven director candidates (the “Urvan Candidates”) and its demand to inspect books and records, pursuant to Section 220 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and the Company agreed to immediately increase the size of the Board from seven to nine directors and appoint Christos Tsentas and Wayne Walker (each, a “New Director” and the New Directors together with Mr. Urvan, the “Urvan Group Directors”) to the Board to serve as directors with terms expiring at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2022 Annual Meeting”). The Company will include the Urvan Group Directors in its director candidates slate for the 2022 Annual Meeting and any subsequent annual meeting of stockholders of the Company occurring prior to the Termination Date (as defined below). The Company has agreed to not increase the size of the Board above nine directors prior to the Termination Date unless the increase is approved by at least seven directors. Mr. Wagenhals will continue to serve as a director and Chairman of the Board.

 

Unless otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by each party, the Settlement Agreement will remain in effect until the date that is the earlier of (i) 30 days prior to the earlier of (A) the deadline set forth in the notice requirements of Federal “Universal Proxy Rules” promulgated under Rule 14a-19(a) and Rule 14a-19(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “UPR Deadline”) relating to the Company’s 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2023 Annual Meeting”) and (B) any deadline that may be set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time, the “Certificate”) or Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) following the execution of the Settlement Agreement relating to the nomination of director candidates for election to the Board at the 2023 Annual Meeting, and (ii) 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the 2022 Annual Meeting (such date, the “Termination Date”). However, if the Company notifies Mr. Urvan in writing at least 15 days prior to such Termination Date that the Board irrevocably offers to re-nominate the Urvan Group Directors for election at the 2023 Annual Meeting and Mr. Urvan accepts such offer within 15 days of receipt of such notice, the Termination Date will be automatically extended until the earlier of (i) 30 days prior to the earlier of (A) the UPR Deadline relating to the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”) and (B) any deadline that may be set forth in the Certificate or the Bylaws following execution of the Settlement Agreement relating to the nomination of director candidates for election to the Board at the 2024 Annual Meeting, and (ii) 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the 2023 Annual Meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the “Termination Date” shall not occur prior to 20 days after Mr. Urvan’s departure from the Board.

 

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company will suspend the previously announced separation of Company into Action Outdoor Sports, Inc. and Outdoor Online, Inc., pending the further evaluation of strategic options by the Board. The Company paid approximately $500,000 of the Urvan Group’s costs, fees and expenses per the terms of the Settlement Agreement. Additionally, the Company issued 125,000 shares of Common Stock for a total value of $437,500 to an employee and issued 110,000 shares of Common Stock for a total value of $385,000 to an independent contractor as a result of termination without cause per the terms of the Settlement Agreement.

 

The foregoing summary of the Settlement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety, by reference to the full text of the Settlement Agreement, a copy of which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 in the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 7, 2022, and incorporated herein by reference.
