Transaction Overview

Under the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, (a) IGTA will be merged with and into its newly formed subsidiary IGTA Merger Sub Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company (“PubCo”) (the “Redomestication Merger”), with PubCo surviving the Redomestication Merger as a British Virgin Islands business company, and (b) immediately thereafter, PubCo shall acquire the outstanding shares of AgileAlgo from AgileAlgo’s shareholders that are either parties to the Business Combination Agreement upon its initial signing (which constitute 88.3% of AgileAlgo’s issued and outstanding shares) or that become party to the Business Combination Agreement after its initial signing and the effectiveness of the registration statement for the transaction by executing and delivering a joinder agreement thereto (such AgileAlgo shareholders, collectively, the “Sellers”) in exchange for ordinary shares of PubCo (the “Share Exchange”) (collectively, the “Business Combination”). 

The total consideration to be paid by PubCo to the Sellers at the Closing will be based on a pre-money equity value of $160 million for 100% of AgileAlgo’s outstanding shares (the “Exchange Consideration”), payable solely in new ordinary shares of PubCo, each valued at $10.00 per share, with 12.5% of the Exchange Consideration otherwise payable to the Sellers at the Closing (or $20 million if 100% of the AgileAlgo shareholders become Sellers under the Business Combination Agreement) (together with earnings thereon, the “Earnout Shares”) to be set aside in escrow at the Closing, subject to vesting and forfeiture if the consolidated gross revenues of the Combined Company and its subsidiaries during the three (3) fiscal quarter period beginning on October 1, 2024 (the “Revenues”) do not equal or exceed $15 million, based on a sliding scale where all of such Earnout Shares will be forfeited if the Revenues do not exceed $7.5 million.

The boards of directors of IGTA and AgileAlgo both unanimously approved the proposed business combination. The closing of the transaction is subject to approval by IGTA’s stockholders and AgileAlgo’s shareholders, and other customary closing conditions. It is currently anticipated that the transaction will close in the first quarter of 2024, but in no event later than June 13, 2024.
