ITEM 1. FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES

 

On August 10, 2018, Hightimes Holding Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a termination and mutual release agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with Origo Acquisition Corp. (“Origo”), HTHC Merger Sub, Inc. and Jose Aldeanueva, pursuant to which the Company exercised its contractual right to terminate the merger agreement among the parties to the Termination Agreement, dated July 24, 2017, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”) and Origo consented to such termination. In addition, the parties agreed to a mutual release of all claims, as well as non-disparagement, confidentiality and other related provisions. A copy of the Termination Agreement is filed hereto as Exhibit.

 

On August 10, 2018, Origo filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission under which it announced, among other things, its intention to dissolve and liquidate.

 

ITEM 9. OTHER EVENTS

 

On August 3, 2018, the Company published a press release relating to its Regulation A+ offering stating that it would accept Bitcoin as a form of payment for subscription to the Company’s shares. This press release was distributed in error as the Company will not be accepting Bitcoin as payment for shares. As provided in the Company’s subscription agreement related to the offering, the Company will only be accepting check, credit card, ACH or wire transfer as payment for subscription to shares. 

 

On August 10, 2018, the Company elected to exercise its right under the Company’s Regulation A+ Offering Circular, dated July 26, 2018, to extend the offering period to September 12, 2018. Accordingly, the Offering will terminate to the first to occur of: (i) the date on which the $50,000,000 Maximum Offering is completed; (ii) September 12, 2018, or (iii) such earlier date as the Company elects to terminate the Offering.

 

In conjunction therewith, the Company updated the subscription agreement and escrow agreement related to its Regulation A+ offering to eliminate references to the Origo merger and extend the offering period to September 12, 2018.

 

The updated forms of subscription agreement and form of escrow agreement are filed as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 8.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 1-U and any summary of the terms of such documents are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of such documents, which are incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company is also filing herewith an updated version of the selling agent agreement, dated March 27, 2018 (the “Selling Agent Agreement”), by and between the Company and NMS Capital Advisors, LLC (“NMS”). In addition, on August 13, 2018, the Company and NMS entered in Amendment No. 1 to the Selling Agent Agreement (the “Amendment”) so as to amend the definition of the disclosure package to be delivered to investors so as to include this Current Report on Form 1-U, as well as any additional filings the Company may make with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the offering period.

 

The Selling Agent Agreement and the Amendment are filed as Exhibit 6.1 and Exhibit 6.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 1-U and any summary of the terms of such documents are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of such documents, which are incorporated herein by reference.
