Introductory Note

 

On August 30, 2024, INFINT Acquisition Corporation (“INFINT”) completed a series of transactions that resulted in the combination (the “Business Combination”) of INFINT with Seamless Group Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Seamless”), pursuant to the previously announced Business Combination Agreement, dated August 13, 2022, amended by an amendment dated October 20, 2022, an amendment dated November 29, 2022 and an amendment dated February 20, 2023 (the “BCA”), by and among INFINT, FINTECH Merger Sub Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT (“Merger Sub”), and Seamless, following the approval at the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of INFINT held on August 6, 2024 (the “Special Meeting”). On August 30, 2024, pursuant to the BCA, and as described in greater detail in the Company’s final prospectus and definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 12, 2024 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), Merger Sub merged with and into Seamless, with Seamless surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of INFINT, and INFINT changed its name to Currenc Group Inc. (“New Seamless”). As consideration for the Business Combination, New Seamless issued to Seamless shareholders an aggregate of 40,000,000 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Ordinary Shares”) of New Seamless (the “Exchange Consideration”).

As used herein, “Lock-Up Period” means the period commencing on the date of the Closing and ending on the earlier of: (i) six months after the Closing and (ii) the date after the Closing on which New Seamless consummates a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of New Seamless’ shareholders having the right to exchange their New Seamless Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Pursuant to the PIPE Agreement entered into by and between New Seamless, Seamless, and the Purchaser, New Seamless agreed to issue an aggregate principal amount of USD $1,944,444 (the “Principal Amount”) in convertible promissory note to the Purchaser at an issue price of USD $1,750,000, which represents a 10% discount to the Principal Amount (the “Note Issuance”).

Except with the written consent of New Seamless, the Purchaser shall not own more than 4.99% of the Ordinary Shares of New Seamless in issue from time to time (the “Ownership Limit”). In addition, the Note will not be convertible to the extent that such issuance of shares, together with any issuance of shares upon the exercise of Warrants, would require shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules, until and unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

In addition, the Warrants will not be exercisable to the extent that such issuance of shares together with any issuance of shares upon the conversion of the Note, would require shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules, until and unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward- looking statements, and while New Seamless may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required by applicable law. New Seamless does not give any assurance that New Seamless will achieve its expectations.

Pursuant to the PIPE Agreement entered into by and between New Seamless, Seamless, and the Purchaser, New Seamless agreed to issue an aggregate principal amount of USD $1,944,444 (the “Principal Amount”) in convertible promissory note to the Purchaser at an issue price of USD $1,750,000, which represents a 10% discount to the Principal Amount (the “Note Issuance”). Subject to the conditions to the Parties obligation to close, the PIPE Agreement shall close on the earlier of (i) the date which is no more than three (3) days after the signing of the Term Sheet (as defined in the PIPE Agreement); (ii) the date of the Business Combination Closing; or (iii) such other date and time as may be mutually agreed in writing by New Seamless and Purchaser. In certain circumstances, the Purchaser will be entitled to certain piggyback registration rights. The PIPE Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions and customary representations and warranties. As of the date hereof, the Ordinary Shares to be issued in connection with the Note Issuance have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event, New Seamless proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act, it shall give prompt written notice to the Purchaser, who within twenty (20) days after receiving such written notice provide New Seamless with written notice to use best efforts to cause all Ordinary Shares held by Purchaser (the “Piggyback Shares”) to be included in such registration, subject to the PIPE Agreement. Except with the written consent of New Seamless, the Purchaser shall not own more than 4.99% of the Ordinary Shares of New Seamless in issue from time to time (the “Ownership Limit”). In addition, the Note will not be convertible to the extent that such issuance of shares together with any issuance of shares upon the exercise of Warrants, would require shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules, until and unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

 

 

 

 

In connection with the Note Issuance, and as consideration of the Purchaser’s subscription of the convertible promissory note following the Business Combination Closing, the Purchaser was also issued (i) 400,000 Ordinary Shares, credited as fully-paid, (the “Commitment Shares”) and (ii) a five-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 136,110 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of USD $11.50 (the “Warrant Shares”). The Warrants shall have anti-dilution protection on the price with respect to future equity offerings of New Seamless priced at or above $2.00 per share and full anti-dilution protection on price and quantity with respect to future equity offerings of New Seamless priced below $2.00 per share. In the event the Warrant Shares are not registered within 12 months, Warrant holders have the option to cashless exercise each warrant for 0.8 Ordinary Shares. In addition, the Warrants will not be exercisable to the extent that such issuance of shares together with any issuance of shares upon the conversion of the Note, would require shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules, until and unless such shareholder approval is obtained.

 

The foregoing description of the PIPE Agreement, Note and Warrant is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such PIPE Agreement, Note and Warrant, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.5, 10.6, and Exhibit 10.7, respectively, and are incorporated herein in their entirety by reference.
