Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

As previously reported, Andina entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Andina, Andina Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Andina (“Merger Sub”) and the Company, pursuant to which Holding will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Andina following approval of the merger by Andina’s shareholders (the “Merger”).

 

On December 19, 2013, Andina and an affiliate of A. Lorne Weil, Andina’s non-executive Chairman of the Board (the “Insider”), entered into an agreement with a third party shareholder of Andina (the “Holder”) pursuant to which the Holder will use commercially reasonable efforts to purchase up to 1,000,000 ordinary shares of Andina in the open market and has agreed that it will not seek conversion or redemption of any such purchased shares in connection with the Merger. Pursuant to the agreement, the Insider has agreed to transfer to the Holder 2.19888 warrants to purchase ordinary shares of Andina for each share purchased by the Holder (up to a maximum of 2,198,880 warrants). EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., financial advisor to Andina, has also agreed to transfer to the Holder up to 90,000 unit purchase options, each to purchase one ordinary share and one warrant to purchase one ordinary share, depending on the number of shares purchased.

 

Andina has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the warrants and shares underlying the warrants, as well as the unit purchase options and underlying securities. In the event the registration statement is not filed by April 1, 2014 or declared effective by June 1, 2014, Andina will be required to pay the Holder a cash penalty of $0.20 per warrant transferred to the Holder for each month until the registration statement has been filed or declared effective, as the case may be.

Andina expects that the Insider and other officers and directors of Andina (or their affiliates or designees) may enter into other similar agreements prior to the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders.

 

On December 20, 2013, Andina issued a press release announcing the foregoing. A copy of the press release for such announcement is attached to this Report as Exhibit 99.1.
