Item 1.01

Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement

This section describes the material provisions of the Merger Agreement (as defined below) but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used below are defined in the Merger Agreement.

The Merger

On February 27, 2018, Stellar Acquisition III Inc., a Republic of the Marshall Islands corporation (together with its successors, “ Stellar ”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “ Merger Agreement ”), by and among Stellar, STLR Merger Subsidiary Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stellar (“ Merger Sub ”), and Phunware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Phunware ”).

The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Phunware (the “ Merger ”), with Phunware continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger. Prior to the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “ Closing ”), the holders of Phunware’s preferred stock will convert all of their issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock into shares of Phunware common stock at a conversion ratio of one share of common stock for each share of preferred stock (the “ Preferred Stock Exchange ”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “ Effective Time ”): (i) all shares of Phunware common stock and preferred stock (the “ Phunware Stock ”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to the Preferred Stock Exchange) will be converted into the right to receive the Stockholder Merger Consideration (as defined below); (ii) each outstanding warrant to acquire shares of Phunware Stock will be cancelled, retired and terminated in exchange for the right to receive from Stellar a new warrant for shares of Stellar common stock with its price and number of shares equitably adjusted based on the conversion of the shares of Phunware Stock into the Stockholder Merger Consideration, but with terms otherwise the same as the Phunware warrant (each, a “ Replacement Warrant ”); and (iii) each outstanding option to acquire Phunware Stock (whether vested or unvested) shall be assumed by Stellar and automatically converted into an option to acquire shares of Stellar common stock, with its price and number of shares equitably adjusted based on the conversion of the shares of Phunware Stock into the Stockholder Merger Consideration (each, an “ Assumed Option ”).

The Merger Agreement also provides that, immediately prior to the Closing, Stellar will convert from a Republic of the Marshall Islands corporation into a Delaware corporation, whether by reincorporation, statutory conversion or otherwise (the “ Conversion ”). At the Closing, Stellar will change its name to “Phunware, Inc.”.

Merger Consideration

The aggregate merger consideration to be paid pursuant to the Merger Agreement to Phunware securityholders as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be an amount equal to: (i) $301,000,000, plus (ii) the cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of Phunware and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Target Companies ”), as of the date of the Closing minus (iii) the aggregate indebtedness of the Target Companies (the “ Merger Consideration ”) as of the date of the Closing.

By default, the Merger Consideration to be paid to Phunware stockholders will be paid in the form of a number shares of Stellar common stock, valued at a price per share equal to the price at which each share of Stellar common stock is redeemed or converted pursuant to the redemption by Stellar of its public stockholders in connection with Stellar’s initial business combination, as required by its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “ Redemption ”).

In lieu of the right to receive only shares of Stellar common stock as Stockholder Merger Consideration, each holder of Phunware Stock shall be entitled to elect to receive such holder’s pro rata share of up to an aggregate of 929,890 warrants to purchase shares of Stellar common stock that are currently held by Stellar’s sponsors (the “ Transferred Sponsor Warrants ”). The number of shares of Stellar common stock that a stockholder would otherwise be entitled to receive as part of the Merger Consideration shall be reduced by an amount equal to the value of the Transferred Sponsor Warrants that the Phunware stockholder elects to receive at $0.50 per warrant. In the event that there are any Transferred Sponsor Warrants that other holders of shares of Phunware Stock elect not to receive (the “ Undersubscribed Sponsor Warrants ”), each holder will also have the right to purchase up to its pro rata share of such Undersubscribed Sponsor Warrants. The shares of Stellar common stock and the Transferred Sponsor Warrants to be transferred to Phunware stockholders are collectively referred to as “ Stockholder Merger Consideration ”.

As part of the Merger Consideration, holders of Phunware warrants will receive the Replacement Warrants and holders of Phunware options will receive the Assumed Options.

Representations and Warranties

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by each of Stellar, Phunware and Merger Sub. Many of the representations and warranties are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect. “ Material Adverse Effect ” as used in the Merger Agreement means with respect to any specified person or entity, any fact, event, occurrence, change or effect that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of such person or entity and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the ability of such person or entity or any of its subsidiaries on a timely basis to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the ancillary documents to which it is a party or bound or to perform its obligations thereunder, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions. Certain of the representations are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications contained in the Merger Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure schedules to the Merger Agreement. The representations and warranties made by the parties do not survive the Closing and there are no indemnification rights for another party’s breach.

Covenants of the Parties

Each party agreed in the Merger Agreement to use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the Closing. The Merger Agreement also contains certain customary covenants by each of the parties during the period between the signing of the Merger Agreement and the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “ Interim Period ”).

Stellar agreed that if either Phunware or Stellar reasonably believe that the Closing may not occur by May 24, 2018, but that the parties are reasonably capable of causing the Closing to occur prior to August 24, 2018, then Stellar may, and at the request of Phunware will, seek the approval of its stockholders to extend the deadline for it to consummate its initial business combination to a date no earlier than August 24, 2018 (or such earlier date at the parties may otherwise agree, which may be structured as multiple periodic extensions) (the “ Extension ”). Phunware agreed to loan Stellar an amount equal to 50% of the costs and expenses of the Extension.

The Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby requires the approval of both Stellar’s stockholders and Phunware’s stockholders. Stellar agreed, as promptly as practicable after the date of the Merger Agreement, to prepare, with the reasonable assistance of Phunware, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”), a registration statement on Form S-4 (as amended, the “ Registration Statement ”) in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”) of the issuance of shares of Stellar common stock to the Phunware stockholders, and containing a joint proxy statement/prospectus for the purpose of (i) Stellar soliciting proxies from the stockholders of Stellar to approve the Merger Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby and related matters (the “ Stellar Stockholder Approval ”) at a special meeting of Stellar’s stockholders (the “ Stellar Special Meeting ”) and providing such stockholders an opportunity, in accordance with Stellar’s organizational documents, to have their shares of Stellar stock redeemed in conjunction with the stockholder vote on the matters to be considered at the Stellar Special Meeting and (ii) Phunware soliciting proxies from the stockholders of Phunware to approve the Merger Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby and related matters (the “ Phunware Stockholder Approval ”) at a special meeting of Phunware’s stockholders (the “ Phunware Special Meeting ”).

Each of Phunware and Stellar also agreed not to solicit or enter into any alternative competing transactions during the Interim Period; provided, that prior to obtaining the Phunware Stockholder Approval, Phunware’s board of directors may engage in discussions or negotiations with a third-party with respect to an unsolicited alternative transaction proposal that its board of directors determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and its outside legal counsel) constitutes or is likely lead to a superior proposal and Phunware may furnish non-public information relating the Target Companies to such third-party. Phunware agreed that its board of directors would recommend that Phunware stockholders approve the Merger and that it would not change or withdraw such recommendation unless prior to the Phunware Stockholder Approval (i) it receives an unsolicited alternative transaction proposal that it determines in good faith to be superior to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the board of director’s fiduciary duties, or (ii) a material event, circumstance, change or condition occurs or arises with respect to the Target Companies after the date of the Merger Agreement that was not reasonably foreseeable or known by Phunware’s board of directors as of the date of the Merger Agreement and does not relate to another acquisition proposal or transaction. In case of either of the foregoing, Phunware’s board of directors is entitled to change its recommendation prior to the Phunware Special Meeting (a “ Change in Recommendation ”). Prior to such Change in Recommendation, if requested by Stellar, Stellar shall have a five business day period to negotiate modifications to the Merger Agreement with Phunware in order to obviate the need for the Change in Recommendation . Regardless of whether there is a Change in Recommendation, Phunware remains obligated to hold the Phunware Special Meeting.

Certain Phunware stockholders constituting approximately 13% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Phunware, voting together as a single class, 15% of the issued and outstanding preferred stock of Phunware, voting together as a single class, and 27% of the issued and outstanding Series F preferred stock of Phunware, executed Voting Agreements in favor of Stellar and Phunware upon the execution of the Merger Agreement. Phunware agreed to use its reasonable best efforts as promptly as practicable after the execution of the Merger Agreement to solicit additional Voting Agreements from holders of approximately 40% of the total voting power of Phunware’s issued and outstanding capital stock, the minimum required vote of the holders of Phunware’s Series F preferred stock and at least 45% of the total voting power of the issued and outstanding Phunware preferred stock, in each case entitled to vote at the Phunware Special Meeting.

The parties also agreed to take all necessary action, so that effective at the Closing, the entire board of directors of Stellar will consist of seven individuals, a majority of whom shall be independent directors in accordance with Nasdaq requirements. Two of the seven members of the board of directors will be individuals (at least one of whom shall be an independent director) designated by Stellar prior and five of the members of the board of directors (at least two of whom shall be independent directors) will be designated by Phunware. Upon execution of the Merger Agreement, Stellar designated Prokopios “Akis” Tsirigakis and George Syllantavos as directors and Phunware designated Alan Knitowski as a director. Phunware shall designate the remaining directors prior to the Registration Statement becoming effective. Stellar’s board of directors after the Closing will be classified into three classes, with each director holding office for a three-year term or until the next annual meeting of stockholders at which such director’s class is up for election and where his or her successor is elected and qualified.

The parties also agreed that Stellar will use good faith efforts to maintain a minimum balance of $40,000,000 in cash and cash equivalents at the Closing, after the Redemption and payment of Stellar transaction expenses, indebtedness and liabilities (the “ Minimum Cash Asset Level ”).

Phunware also agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate an initial block-chain technology token generation event with cash proceeds of at least $10,000,000 and no more than $100,000,000 on or prior to June 30, 2018. If requested by the Phunware, Stellar will, and will cause its representatives to, reasonably cooperate with Phunware and provide their respective commercially reasonable efforts to support such token generation event.

Conditions to Consummation of the Merger

The obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger is subject to various conditions, including the following mutual conditions of the parties unless waived: (i) the approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and related matters by the requisite vote of Stellar’s stockholders and Phunware’s stockholders; (ii) receipt of requisite regulatory approvals; (iii) no law or order preventing or prohibiting the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (iv) no pending litigation to enjoin or restrict the consummation of the Closing; (v) Stellar having at least $5,000,001 in net tangible assets as of the Closing, after giving effect to the completion of the Redemption; (vi) the consummation of the Conversion by Stellar; (vii) the election or appointment of members to the Stellar’s board of directors as described above; and (viii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

In addition, unless waived by Phunware, the obligations of Phunware to consummate the Merger are subject to the satisfaction of the following Closing conditions, in addition to customary certificates and other closing deliveries:

Termination

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the Closing, including:

	·	by mutual written consent of Stellar and Phunware;

	·	by written notice by either Stellar or Phunware if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to May 24, 2018 (provided, that if Stellar seeks and receives the approval of its stockholders for the Extension, the termination date shall be extended to the earlier of (i) August 24, 2018, or (ii) if Stellar and Phunware mutually agree to an earlier date for the second extension, such earlier date);

	·	by written notice by either Stellar or Phunware if a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and such order or other action has become final and non-appealable;

	·	by written notice by either party of the other party’s uncured breach (subject to certain materiality qualifiers);

	·	by written notice by Stellar if there has been a Material Adverse Effect on Phunware since the date of the Merger Agreement which is continuing and incapable of being cured or, if capable of cure, is uncured after 20 days after the date that written notice of such Material Adverse Effect is provided by Stellar;

by written notice by Stellar or Phunware if ten business days elapse after the Stellar Special Meeting and the Minimum Cash Asset Level is not satisfied or waived by Phunware.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, all further obligations of the parties under the Merger Agreement will terminate and will be of no further force and effect (except that certain obligations related to public announcements, confidentiality, termination and termination fees, waiver of claims against the trust, and certain general provisions will continue in effect), and no party will have any further liability to any other party thereto except for liability for any fraud claims or willful breach of the Merger Agreement prior to such termination.

In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated either (i) by Stellar for a Change in Recommendation by Phunware’s board of directors or (ii) by either Stellar or Phunware for Phunware failing to receive the Phunware Stockholder Approval after a Change in Recommendation by Phunware’s board of directors, then Phunware shall pay to Stellar a cash termination fee equal to $12,000,000.

Trust Account Waiver

Phunware has agreed that it and its affiliates will not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in Stellar’s trust account held for its public stockholders, and agreed not to, and waived any right to, make any claim against the trust account (including any distributions therefrom).

Related Agreements

Voting Agreements

Simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement certain Phunware stockholders entered into voting agreements with Stellar and Phunware (the “ Voting Agreements ”) and Phunware agreed in the Merger Agreement to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain additional Voting Agreements from Phunware stockholders after the execution of the Merger Agreement. Under the Voting Agreements, the Phunware stockholders agree to vote all of their shares of Phunware Stock in favor of the Merger Agreement and related transactions and to otherwise take certain other actions in support of the Merger Agreement and related transactions and refrain from taking actions that would adversely affect such Phunware Stockholder’s ability to perform its obligations under the Voting Agreement, and provide a proxy to Stellar to vote such Phunware Stock accordingly. The Voting Agreements prevent transfers of the Phunware Stock held by the Phunware stockholder party thereto between the date of the Voting Agreement and the date of the Phunware Special Meeting, except for certain permitted transfers.

Simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, each of Stellar’s sponsors entered into voting agreements with Stellar and Phunware (the “ Sponsor Voting Agreements ”). Under the Sponsor Voting Agreements, the sponsors agree to vote all of their shares of Stellar common stock in favor of the Merger Agreement and related transactions and to otherwise take certain other actions in support of the Merger Agreement and related transactions and refrain from taking actions that would adversely affect such sponsor’s ability to perform its obligations under the Sponsor Voting Agreement, and provide a proxy to Phunware to vote such Stellar common stock accordingly. The Sponsor Voting Agreements prevent transfers of the Stellar common stock held by the sponsor party thereto between the date of the Voting Agreement and the date of the Stellar Special Meeting, except for certain permitted transfers.

Lock-Up Agreements

At the Closing, the officers and directors of Phunware and the Phunware stockholders owning more than 1% of the outstanding equity of Phunware immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “ Significant Stockholder ”) will each either enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with Stellar in substantially the form attached to the Merger Agreement (each, a “ Lock-Up Agreement ”) or such Significant Stockholder shall otherwise be subject to substantially similar transfer restrictions that are in favor of Stellar. In such Lock-Up Agreement, each such holder will agree not to, during the period commencing from the Closing and ending on the earlier of (A) the one hundred and eighty days (180) of the date of the Closing, and (B) the date after the Closing on which Stellar consummates a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of the Stellar stockholders having the right to exchange their equity holdings in Stellar for cash, securities or other property: (x) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, donate, assign, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any restricted securities, (y) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the restricted securities, or (z) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, whether any such transaction described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above is to be settled by delivery of restricted securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise. At the Closing, each of Seller’s sponsors will enter into a substantially similar lock-up agreement with Stellar in substantially the form attached to the Merger Agreement (each, a “ Sponsor Lock-Up Agreement ”).

The foregoing descriptions of the Voting Agreements, the Sponsor Voting Agreements, the Lock-up Agreements and the Sponsor Lock-up Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the form of Voting Agreement, Sponsor Voting Agreement, Lock-up Agreement and Sponsor Lock-up Agreement, copies of which are filed hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, respectively.

1.10 Effect of Merger on Company Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of any Company Securities or the holders of any shares of capital stock of the Purchaser or Merger Sub:

(a) Company Stock . Subject to clause (b) below, all shares of Company Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to the Company Preferred Stock Exchange) will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive the Stockholder Merger Consideration, with each Company Stockholder being entitled to receive its portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration, including the Transferred Sponsor Warrants in accordance with Section 1.9 , without interest, upon delivery of the Transmittal Documents in accordance with Section 1.11 . As of the Effective Time, each Company Stockholder shall cease to have any other rights in and to the Company or the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Treasury Stock . Notwithstanding clause (a) above or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, if there are any Company Securities that are owned by the Company as treasury shares or any Company Securities owned by any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, such Company Securities shall be canceled and shall cease to exist without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(d) Company Warrants . Each outstanding Company Warrant shall be cancelled, retired and terminated and cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Stock and each holder thereof shall instead have the right to receive from the Purchaser a new warrant for shares of Purchaser Common Stock (each, a “ Replacement Purchaser Warrant ”). Each Replacement Purchaser Warrant shall have, and be subject to, substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Company Warrants, except that: (i) the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock which can be purchased with each Replacement Purchaser Warrant shall equal a number of shares equal to (as rounded down to the nearest whole number) the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock (with any Company Preferred Stock treated on an as-converted to Company Common Stock basis) which the Company Warrant had the right to acquire immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Conversion Ratio; and (ii) the exercise price for each Replacement Purchaser Warrant shall be equal to (as rounded up to the nearest whole cent) the quotient of (A) the exercise price of the Company Warrant (in U.S. Dollars), divided by (B) the Conversion Ratio. The Purchaser shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for future issuance, and shall maintain such reservation for so long as any of the Replacement Purchaser Warrants remain outstanding, a sufficient number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock for delivery upon the exercise of such Replacement Purchaser Warrants.

(e) Company Options . Each outstanding Company Option (whether vested or unvested) shall be assumed by Purchaser and automatically converted into an option for shares of Purchaser Common Stock (each, an “ Assumed Option ”). Subject to the subsequent sentence, each Assumed Option will be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Company Equity Plan (except any references therein to the Company or Company Common Stock will instead mean the Purchaser and Purchaser Common Stock, respectively). Each Assumed Option shall: (i) have the right to acquire a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock equal to(as rounded down to the nearest whole number) the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock (with any Company Preferred Stock treated on an as-converted to Company Common Stock basis) which the Company Option had the right to acquire immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Conversion Ratio; (ii) have an exercise price equal to (as rounded up to the nearest whole cent) the quotient of (A) the exercise price of the Company Option (in U.S. Dollars), divided by (B) the Conversion Ratio; and (iii) be subject to the same vesting schedule as the applicable Company Option. The Purchaser shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for future issuance, and shall maintain such reservation for so long as any of the Assumed Options remain outstanding, a sufficient number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock for delivery upon the exercise of such Assumed Option. From and after the Closing, the Company and the Purchaser shall not issue any new awards under the Company Equity Plan.

(f) Sponsor Warrants . In addition to the right to receive shares of Purchaser Common Stock, each holder of Company Stock shall be entitled to elect to receive such holder’s Pro Rata Share of up to an aggregate of 929,890 Purchaser Private Warrants (the “ Transferred Sponsor Warrants ”), pursuant to the following procedures (such procedures, the “ Sponsor Warrant Election ”):

(i) At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Company Special Meeting, the holders of Company Stock shall make an election on such holder’s Letter of Transmittal as to (A) the number of Purchaser Private Warrants that such holder wishes to elect to receive, which number shall be no more than such holder’s Pro Rata Share of the total number of Transferred Sponsor Warrants, and (B) in case that there are any Transferred Sponsor Warrants that other holders of Company Stock elect not to receive (the “ Under-subscribed Sponsor Warrants ”), whether such holder wishes to receive its Pro Rata Share of the Under-subscribed Sponsor Warrants and whether there is any limit to the number of Under-subscribed Sponsor Warrants that it wishes to elect to receive.

(ii) For each Transferred Sponsor Warrant that a Company Stockholder wishes to elect to receive, the Company Shareholder shall exchange for such Transferred Sponsor Warrant a number of the Purchaser Common Stock that it was otherwise entitled to receive as Stockholder Merger Consideration, at a ratio equal to $0.50 divided by the Redemption Price.

(iii) Prior to the Effective Time, Purchaser shall purchase from the Sponsors the aggregate number of Transferred Sponsor Warrants elected to receive by all holders of Company Stock, and in consideration for such purchase shall issue to the Sponsors a promissory note in the amount equal to (x) fifty cents ($0.50) multiplied by (y) the number of Transferred Sponsor Warrants, which promissory note shall be repayable upon the Closing.

(iv) The Sponsor Warrant Election shall only be valid for any Letters of Transmittal received by the Exchange Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Company Special Meeting.

(v) Any Transferred Sponsor Warrants received by Company Stockholders shall be subject to the transfer restrictions applicable to the Sponsors under Section 7(b) of the letter agreement, dated August 18, 2016, by and between the Purchaser and the Sponsors (a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Purchaser’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 24, 2016) as permitted transferees of the Sponsors.

(g) Any other Company Convertible Security other than a Company Warrant or Company Option, if not exercised or converted prior to the Effective Time, shall be cancelled, retired and terminated and cease to represent a right to acquire, be exchanged for or convert into shares of Company Stock.

1.11 Surrender of Company Securities and Disbursement of Merger Consideration .

(a) Promptly after the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall appoint Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company or another agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “ Exchange Agent ”) for the purpose of exchanging the certificates representing Company Stock (“ Company Certificates ”). At or prior to the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent the Stockholder Merger Consideration and the Transferred Sponsor Warrants that have been purchased from the Sponsor pursuant to Section 1.10(f) . Promptly after the date hereof, the Purchaser shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each Company Stockholder, a letter of transmittal for use in such exchange, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (a “ Letter of Transmittal ”) (which shall specify that the delivery of Company Certificates in respect of the Stockholder Merger Consideration shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Company Certificates to the Exchange Agent (or a Lost Certificate Affidavit)) for use in such exchange and for making the Sponsor Warrant Election.

(b) Each Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive its portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration in respect of the Company Stock represented by the Company Certificate(s) (excluding any Company Securities described in Section 1.10(b) ) and Transferred Sponsor Warrants, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, but subject to the delivery to the Exchange Agent of the following items (collectively, the “ Transmittal Documents ”): (i) the Company Certificate(s) for its Company Stock (or a Lost Certificate Affidavit), together with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Exchange Agent or the Purchaser; and (ii) if such Company Stockholder is a Significant Stockholder, a duly executed counterpart to the lock-up agreement with the Purchaser, effective as of the Effective Time, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D-1 hereto (each a “ Lock-Up Agreement ”). Until so surrendered, each Company Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration attributable to such Company Certificate.

(c) If any portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration is to be delivered or issued to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Company Certificate is registered immediately prior to the Effective Time, it shall be a condition to such delivery that (i) the transfer of such Company Stock shall have been permitted in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Organizational Documents and any stockholders agreement with respect to the Company, each as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) such Company Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer and, (iii) the recipient of such portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration, or the Person in whose name such portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration is delivered or issued, shall have already executed and delivered counterparts to the Lock-Up Agreement (if the transferor was a Significant Stockholder), and such other Transmittal Documents as are reasonably deemed necessary by the Exchange Agent or Purchaser and (iv) the Person requesting such delivery shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Taxes required as a result of such delivery to a Person other than the registered holder of such Company Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Company Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, in lieu of delivery of a Company Certificate to the Exchange Agent, the Company Stockholder may instead deliver to the Exchange Agent an affidavit of lost certificate and, if reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, indemnity of loss in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser (a “ Lost Certificate Affidavit ”), which at the reasonable discretion of the Purchaser may include a requirement that the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificate deliver a bond in such customary amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to the shares of Company Stock represented by the Company Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. Any Lost Certificate Affidavit properly delivered in accordance with this Section 1.11(d) shall be treated as a Company Certificate for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Company Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation, the Purchaser or the Exchange Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the applicable portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.11 . No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date of this Agreement with respect to Purchaser Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holders of any Company Certificates that have not yet been surrendered with respect to the Purchaser Common Stock to be issued upon surrender thereof until the holders of record of such Company Certificates shall surrender such certificates (or provide a Lost Certificate Affidavit), if applicable, and provide the other Transmittal Documents. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Company Certificates (or delivery of a Lost Certificate Affidavit), if applicable, and delivery of the other Transmittal Documents, Purchaser shall promptly deliver to the record holders thereof, without interest, the certificates representing the Purchaser Common Stock issued in exchange therefor and the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such Purchaser Common Stock.

(f) All securities issued upon the surrender of Company Securities in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Securities. Any portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.11(a) that remains unclaimed by Company Stockholders two (2) years after the Effective Time shall be returned to the Purchaser, upon demand, and any such Company Stockholder who has not exchanged its Company Stock for the applicable portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration (including the Transferred Sponsor Warrants) in accordance with this Section 1.11 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to the Purchaser for payment of the portion of the Stockholder Merger Consideration (including the Transferred Sponsor Warrants) in respect of such shares of Company Stock without any interest thereon (but with any dividends paid with respect thereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation, the Purchaser or any Party hereto shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Purchaser Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall instead have the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock issued to such Person rounded down in the aggregate to the nearest whole share of Purchaser Common Stock.

1.12 Effect of Transaction on Merger Sub Stock . At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of any Company Securities or the holders of any shares of capital stock of the Purchaser or Merger Sub, each share of Merger Sub Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

1.13 Closing Calculations . Not later than the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement signed by the Company’s chief executive officer (the “ Closing Statement ”) setting forth a good faith calculation of the Company’s estimate of the Closing Net Cash and the resulting Merger Consideration, in reasonable detail including for each component thereof, along with the amount owed to each creditor of any of the Target Companies, and bank statements and other evidence reasonably necessary to confirm such calculations. Promptly upon delivering the Closing Statement to the Purchaser, the Company will meet with the Purchaser to review and discuss the Closing Statement and the Company will consider in good faith the Purchaser’s comments to the Closing Statement and make any appropriate adjustments to the Closing Statement prior to the Closing, which adjusted Closing Statement, as mutually approved by the Company and the Purchaser, shall thereafter become the Closing Statement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Closing Statement and the determinations contained therein shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

1.14 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action . If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of the Company and Merger Sub are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

WAIVERS AND RELEASES

The Company represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that Purchaser has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and overallotment shares acquired by the Purchaser’s underwriters (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of Purchaser’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by Purchaser’s underwriters) (the “ Public Stockholders ”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, Purchaser may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Stockholders in the event they elect to redeem their Purchaser Common Stock in connection with the consummation of its initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) (“ Business Combination ”) or in connection with an extension of the deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Stockholders if the Purchaser fails to consummate a Business Combination within twelve (12) months (or up to twenty (21) months if extended pursuant to the terms of the Purchaser Organizational Documents) after the closing of the IPO, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, as necessary to pay any taxes and for working capital purposes, and (d) to the Purchaser after or concurrently with the consummation of its Business Combination. For and in consideration of Purchaser entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Company nor its Affiliates does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between the Purchaser or its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company or its Representatives, on the other hand, this Agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “ Released Claims ”). The Company on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that the Company or its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Purchaser or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with Purchaser or its Affiliates). The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by the Purchaser and its Affiliates to induce Purchaser to enter in this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent the Company or any of its Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Purchaser or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the Purchaser or its Representatives, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees the Company’s and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit any the Company or its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company or any of its Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Purchaser or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Stockholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, the Purchaser and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company, its Affiliates, and the Company Stockholders, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event the Purchaser or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. For the avoidance of doubt, each Sponsor shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Purchaser prior to the Closing. This Section 8.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason.

Holder acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Holder, money damages will be inadequate and the Company and the Purchaser will have not adequate remedy at law, and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Holder in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Company and the Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Holder and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

(m) No Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture . This Agreement is intended to create a contractual relationship among Holder, the Company and the Purchaser, and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture or any like relationship among the parties hereto or among any other Company shareholders entering into voting agreements with the Company or the Purchaser. Holder is not affiliated with any other holder of securities of the Company entering into a voting agreement with the Company or the Purchaser in connection with the Merger Agreement and has acted independently regarding its decision to enter into this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in the Company or the Purchaser any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Shares.

(n) Further Assurances . From time to time, at another party’s request and without further consideration, each party shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(o) Entire Agreement . This Agreement (together with the Merger Agreement to the extent referred to herein) constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled; provided , that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

Exhibit 99.1

Stellar Acquisition III, Inc. Signs Definitive Agreement to Combine with Phunware, Inc. and

Enter the Mobile Cloud Software and Blockchain Sectors

ATHENS, GREECE, February 28, 2018 – Stellar Acquisition III, Inc. (“Stellar”) (NASDAQ: STLR) announced today that it has entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to combine with Phunware, Inc. (“Phunware”). The transaction values Phunware at an enterprise value of $301 million, on a cash-free, debt-free basis, with the transaction consideration to be paid in newly issued equity securities of Stellar.

The transaction with Phunware enables Stellar to enter two of the most innovative and rapidly growing sectors within the technology space: mobile cloud software and blockchain. Phunware’s mobile application lifecycle management platform delivers mobile marketing automation, analytics and business intelligence, alerts, notifications and messaging, content management, location-based services, audience engagement, audience monetization, vertical solutions, big data and cryptonetworking. The platform processes over 4 billion events per day, totaling over 1.4 trillion events per year. This amounts to petabytes of actionable data across thousands of mobile application portfolios. Currently, Phunware receives revenue from a large and diversified customer base that includes numerous Fortune 5000 companies in both Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) via recurring revenue streams and transactional formats.

Phunware intends to initiate within the 1 ^st half of 2018 a Token Generation Event (“TGE”) based on its “PhunCoin™” cryptonetworking ecosystem.

Phunware was established in February 2009, and has grown rapidly to date through acquisitions and venture capital offerings to strategic investors and partners. The company today has notable investors such as Wavemaker Partners (Draper Network Fund), Fraser McCombs Ventures, Maxima Ventures, Samsung, Cisco Investments, World Wrestling Entertainment, PLDT Capital, Central Texas Angel Network (CTAN), Baylor Angel Network (BAN) and others. We believe that having strategic partners with aligned interests is important in the achievement of common goals.

Following the closing, the common stock and warrants of the combined entity are expected to trade on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the name Phunware, Inc. and trading symbols “PHUN” and “PHUNW”, respectively. The combined company will be led by Mr. Alan S. Knitowski, who will continue as Phunware’s Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Matthew Aune, who will continue as Phunware’s Chief Financial Officer. As part of the transaction, the combined company will redomesticate from the Marshall Islands (Stellar’s jurisdiction of formation) to Delaware.

Management Commentary

Mr. Alan S. Knitowski , CEO of Phunware, said, “Our stated goal has always been to reach every connected device on Earth through mobile applications, and this transaction turbocharges our ability to achieve that vision. With a current reach to over one in ten devices worldwide, our platform is a formidable foundation to build upon. Merging with Stellar will enable us to scale that foundation through organic and inorganic growth, including the PhunCoin Token Generation Event. We are extremely proud of this important milestone and are excited for the future.”

Mr. Matt Aune , CFO of Phunware, added, “Since Phunware’s founding in 2009, we have seen dramatic growth both financially and as a platform. We are now at an exciting stage of our development where we are prepared to take our products and scale to the next level, and this transaction provides the resources that we will use to implement our ambitious plans worldwide.”

Mr. Akis Tsirigakis, Co-CEO of Stellar, stated “We are very pleased to announce this transaction and our entry into the mobile cloud software and blockchain sectors, both extremely attractive and rapidly growing market segments, with great potential for many years to come.
