Upon completion of the Merger, (i) the then-outstanding common units of XpresSpa (other than those held by FORM and its subsidiaries, which will be cancelled without any consideration) and (ii) the then-outstanding preferred units of XpresSpa (other than those held by FORM and its subsidiaries, which will be cancelled without any consideration) will be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive an aggregate of:

(b) 494,792 shares of newly designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of FORM (“FORM Preferred Stock”), and

(c) five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of FORM Common Stock, at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, in each case, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, dividend or similar events. 

In addition, FORM entered into a subscription agreement to sell 750,574 shares of its Common Stock to Mistral Spa Holdings, LLC, at a purchase price of $2.31 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,733,828.

Immediately following the completion of the Merger (without taking into account any shares of FORM Common Stock held by XpresSpa equity holders prior to the completion of the Merger), the former Unitholders of XpresSpa are expected to own approximately 18% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock (or 33% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis) and the current stockholders of FORM are expected to own approximately 82% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock (or 67% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis).

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates; were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement; and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made by each contracting party to the other for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between them that differ from those applicable to investors.

Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by FORM or XpresSpa.

Exemption under FORM’s Section 382 Rights Agreement

The board of directors of FORM has previously adopted a Section 382 Rights Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2016, between FORM and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as rights agent (the “Rights Agreement”) to protect stockholder value by deterring acquisitions of FORM’s common stock that would potentially limit FORM’s ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) and other tax benefits, which may be used to reduce potential future income tax obligations. In general, the rights issued under the Rights Agreement impose a significant penalty to any person, together with its Affiliates (as defined in the Rights Agreement), that acquires 4.99% or more of the common stock of FORM, unless such person is an “Exempt Person” or is otherwise excluded from the Rights Agreement.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this report regarding the proposed transaction between FORM, Merger Sub and XpresSpa; the expected timetable for completing the transaction; the potential value created by the proposed Merger for FORM's and XpresSpa’s stockholders; the potential of FORM’s business after completion of the Merger; the continued listing of FORM's securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market; market acceptance of FORM products; the collective ability to protect intellectual property rights; competition from other providers and products; FORM’s management and board of directors after completion of the Merger; and any other statements about FORM's or XpresSpa’s management teams' future expectations, beliefs, goals, plans or prospects constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact (including statements containing the words "believes," "plans," "could," "anticipates," "expects," "estimates," "plans," "should," "target," "will," "would" and similar expressions) should also be considered to be forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including: the risk that FORM and XpresSpa may not be able to complete the proposed transaction; the inability to realize the potential value created by the proposed Merger for FORM's and XpresSpa's equity holders; the inability to raise capital to fund operations and business plan; FORM's inability to maintain the listing of its securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market after completion of the Merger; and other risks and uncertainties. Investors and stockholders are also urged to read the risk factors set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus carefully when they are available.

In addition, the statements in this report reflect FORM’s expectations and beliefs as of the date of this release. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause FORM’s expectations and beliefs to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements publicly at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing FORM’s views as of any date after the date of this report. 

Important Additional Information Will Be Filed with the SEC

This communication does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of FORM, or XpresSpa or the solicitation of any vote or approval. In connection with the proposed transaction, FORM will file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 containing a proxy statement/prospectus. The proxy statement/prospectus will contain important information about FORM, XpresSpa, the transaction and related matters. FORM will mail or otherwise deliver the proxy statement/prospectus to its stockholders and the stockholders of XpresSpa when it becomes available. Investors and security holders of FORM and XpresSpa are urged to read carefully the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Merger (including any amendments or supplements thereto) in its entirety when it is available, because it will contain important information about the proposed transaction.
