Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously reported, on January 19, 2022, On Track Innovations Ltd. (the "Company") entered into a binding term sheet (the "Term Sheet") with Nayax Ltd., a public company limited by shares formed under the laws of the State of Israel ("Parent"). The Term Sheet provides that the Company and Parent shall enter into a two-step transaction relating to (i) Parent extending a senior secured convertible loan to the Company; and (ii) the purchase by Parent of 100% of the share capital of the Company. As previously reported, on January 27, 2022, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Convertible Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Parent. Under the Loan Agreement, Parent agreed to extend a loan to the Company in the amount of $5,500,000.

On March 17, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement" and the transactions contemplated thereunder, the "Transactions"), by and among the Company, Parent and OTI Merger Sub Ltd., a private company limited by shares formed under the laws of the State of Israel and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, in exchange for consideration consisting of cash in the amounts described below (the "Merger").

Subject to satisfaction of the closing conditions included in the Merger Agreement, the Transactions are expected to close by July 1, 2022. Jerry L. Ivy, Jr Descendants' Trust, the controlling shareholder of the Company, has entered into a Voting and Support Agreement with Parent and Merger Sub to vote the trust's shares in favor of the Transactions.





The Merger Agreement



Merger Consideration


Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Merger Effective Time"), the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company, par value NIS 0.1 per share ("Company Ordinary Shares"), other than Company Ordinary Shares owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, will convert into the right to receive from Parent $4.5 million in the aggregate (the "Merger Consideration"). Based on the number of the Company Ordinary Shares currently outstanding and currently expected to be outstanding at the Merger Effective Time, the Company expects that each Company Ordinary Share shall entitle the holder thereof to receive gross consideration of $0.0595 per share, which consideration may change if the number of Company Ordinary Shares changes before the Merger Effective Time. At the Merger Effective Time, each option to acquire Company Ordinary Shares granted under the Company's 2001 Share Option Plan, which is outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall be terminated for no cost.

At the Merger Effective Time, each restricted share granted under the Company's 2021 Incentive Equity Plan, which is outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall be accelerated, and such shares shall participate in the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement (without any increase to the aggregate Merger Consideration).

Representations, Covenants and Conditions to Closing

Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub has made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement and the Company agreed to customary covenants regarding the operation of its business prior to the closing of the Transactions.

From the date of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of (i) the Merger Effective Time or (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms therein, the Company is subject to customary restrictions on its ability to (A) solicit or facilitate proposals from third parties with respect to transactions involving the sale of the Company (a "Takeover Proposal") or (B) provide non-public information to, or otherwise participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, third parties or take certain other actions that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, subject to customary exceptions relating to proposals that would reasonably be expected to lead to a superior proposal (as further described in the Merger Agreement).

The closing of the Merger is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among others, (a) approval of the Merger Agreement by at least 75% of the ordinary shares of the Company present at the shareholders meeting, in person or by proxy, while abstentions are not considered votes cast, (b) the absence of certain laws, orders, judgments, injunctions or rulings by a governmental authority that restrain, enjoin or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the Merger ("Restraint"), (c) the passage of the statutory waiting periods following the filing of a merger proposal with the Registrar of Companies of the State of Israel, and (d) the accuracy of representations and warranties with respect to the businesses of the Company and Parent and compliance in all material respects by the Company, Parent and Merger Sub with their respective covenants contained in the Merger Agreement.

Termination


The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights of Parent and of the Company, including, among others, the right of (a) Parent to terminate if the Merger has not been consummated on or prior to July 1, 2022, or if any Restraint shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable, (b) Parent to terminate if the Merger Agreement has not been put to the vote of the shareholders of the Company by May 5, 2022; or if such shareholders' approval was not obtained at the shareholders meeting by May 31, 2022, (c) Parent to terminate if a Company Adverse Recommendation Change is made in the circumstances set forth under the Merger Agreement and (d) the Company if the Merger Agreement was voted against, or if the required majority was not obtained for the approval of the Merger, in the Company's shareholders meeting. If the Merger Agreement is terminated (i) by Parent because the merger has not been consummated on or prior to July 1, 2022, (ii) by Parent if the Merger Agreement has not been put to the vote of the shareholders of the Company by May 5, 2022; or if such shareholders' approval was not obtained at the shareholders meeting by May 31, 2022, (iii) by Parent because a Company Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined in the Merger Agreement) is made or (iv) by the Company if the Merger Agreement was voted against, or if the required majority was not obtained for the approval of the Merger, in the Company's shareholders meeting the Company shall pay to Parent a termination fee equal to $1,500,000 in cash.
