Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As further described below, Cipherloc Corporation, a Texas corporation (the “Registrant”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cipherloc Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 13, 2021 (the “Reincorporation Merger Agreement”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Reincorporation Merger”). Pursuant to the Reincorporation Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time (as hereinafter defined) the Company will succeed to the assets, continue the business and assume the rights and obligations of the Registrant existing immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Reincorporation Merger is expected to be consummated when the certificates of merger filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas (the “Texas Certificate of Merger”) and the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Certificate of Merger”) on September 16, 2021 become effective on September 30, 2021 (the “Effective Time”). Copies of the Texas Certificate of Merger and the Delaware Certificate of Merger are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, and are each incorporated herein by reference. The Reincorporation Merger Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby were adopted by the shareholders of the Registrant at the annual meeting of the shareholders of the Registrant held on September 13, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”).

 

At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Reincorporation Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of common stock of the Registrant (“Predecessor Common Stock”), is to be automatically converted into one share of common stock of the Company (“Company Common Stock”).

 

Pursuant to the Reincorporation Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Registrant immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger are to become the directors and officers of the Company and continue their respective directorship or services with the Company on the same terms as their respective directorship or service with the Registrant immediately prior to the Effective Time.

 

As a result of the Reincorporation Merger, at the Effective Time the internal affairs of the Company will cease to be subject to the Texas Business Organizations Code (“TBOC”) or governed by the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Texas Certificate”) and its bylaws (the “Texas Bylaws”). As of the Effective Time, the Company is to be subject to the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) and governed by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Delaware Certificate”) and Bylaws (the “Delaware Bylaws”), which were included as exhibits to the Proxy Statement for the Registrant’s Annual Meeting (the “Proxy”) and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The description of the Reincorporation Merger and the Reincorporation Merger Agreement contained in this Item 1.01, including those incorporated by reference to the Proxy, does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reincorporation Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
