Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On May 3, 2019, Bottomline Technologies (de), Inc., a Delaware Corporation (the Company) entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) with Engagement Acquisition Corp., a Delaware Corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and BankSight Software Systems, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (BankSight). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the time of the transaction closing BankSight will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will pay $2,750,000 in cash and issue 40,000 shares of its common stock to acquire the outstanding capital stock of BankSight. The Company currently owns a minority equity investment in BankSight preferred stock. The 40,000 shares of Company common stock have vesting conditions tied to continued employment of certain BankSight employees and are compensatory; accordingly, the Company will record share-based payment expense over the stock vesting period of five years. The Company has also agreed to pay certain transaction related expenses on behalf of BankSight.
BankSight is an early-stage technology company that develops and markets a SaaS-based customer engagement and growth platform for banks and credit unions.
The parties expect to complete the transaction by May 31, 2019, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions.
