The binding term sheets provide for the Company to issue, pursuant to the Subscription Agreements (when entered into), a number of its ordinary shares (collectively, the “Exchange Shares”) equal to $2.5 million for Marco Polo and Pi Capital in the aggregate, and $938,000 for Avacara, each divided by the price per share equal to the greater of (1) $2.80 and (2) the 30 trading-day trailing Volume-Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of the ordinary shares as reported by Bloomberg at the close of trading on the 33rd trading day after the day that the Company files its Form 10-Q for the first quarter of its fiscal 2025 (which 33rd day (referred to as the “Issuance Date”) is anticipated to be on or about September 16, 2024). The Subscription Agreements will include piggy-back registration rights, as well as demand registration rights creating an obligation by the Company to register the shares to be issued, with the Company to use its best efforts to complete the demand registration within 90 days after the Issuance Date if no piggy-back registration has occurred. As of the Issuance Date the shares, at the option of each of the Creditors, may be transferable to the Creditors’ brokerage account. The binding term sheets also provide that each of the Creditors will enter into a side letter agreeing not to sell any of the Exchange Shares except that, if a resale registration statement with respect to the Exchange Shares is effective, 30% of the Exchange Shares will be salable as of the 91st day after the Issuance Date, another 30% will be salable on the 181st day after the Issuance Date and the remainder will be salable as of one day after the nine month anniversary of the Issuance Date.

Roadzen CEO and Chairman Agree to Exchange $3.5 Million of Short-Term Debt for Equity in the Company

 

NEW YORK, July 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) ("Roadzen" or the "Company"), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today announced that the Company’s Special Committee of Independent Directors has unanimously approved a plan for certain related parties to release $3.5 million of short-term debt in exchange for ordinary shares of RDZN. The related parties that have executed binding term sheets and agreed to the exchange include Roadzen’s CEO, Rohan Malhotra, and Pi Capital International Inc. and its affiliate Marco Polo Securities, Inc., which is principally owned by Roadzen’s Chairman of the Board.

 

The number of shares into which the accrued liabilities will be exchanged for common stock will be based on the amount of debt released divided by a share price equal to the greater of $2.80 per share or the 30-trading day volume weighted average price beginning 3 days following the date on which the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, its Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended June 30, 2024.
