Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As further described below, American Noble Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Predecessor Registrant”), merged with and into its wholly owned subsidiary, American Noble Gas Inc, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), on December 7, 2021, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 7, 2021 (the “Reincorporation Merger Agreement”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Reincorporation Merger”). On December 7, 2021, the effective time of the Reincorporation Merger (the “Effective Time”), the Company succeeded to the assets, continued the business and assumed the rights and obligations of the Predecessor Registrant existing immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Reincorporation Merger was consummated by the filing of a certificate of merger on December 7, 2021 with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Certificate of Merger”) and articles of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “Nevada Articles of Merger”). Copies of the Delaware Certificate of Merger and the Nevada Articles 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 holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Predecessor Registrant’s common stock, par value, $0.0001 per share (the “Predecessor Common Stock”) and/or Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Predecessor Series A Preferred Stock”), on an as-converted to Predecessor Common Stock basis, by written consent in lieu of a special meeting of stockholders, in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”).

 

At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Reincorporation Merger Agreement, (i) each outstanding share of Predecessor Common Stock automatically converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”), (ii) each outstanding share of the Predecessor Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (“Company Series A Preferred Stock”), and (iii) each outstanding option, right or warrant to acquire shares of Predecessor Common Stock converted into an option, right or warrant to acquire an equal number of shares of Company Common Stock under the same terms and conditions as the original options, rights or warrants.

 

Similar to the shares of Predecessor Common Stock prior to the Reincorporation Merger, the shares of Company Common Stock are quoted on the OTCQB tier operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. under the symbol “IFNY”. In accordance with the Reincorporation Merger Agreement, each outstanding certificate previously representing shares of Predecessor Common Stock or Predecessor Series A Preferred Stock automatically represents, without any action of the Predecessor Registrant’s stockholders, the same number of shares of Company Common Stock or Company Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable.

 

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

 

As a result of the Reincorporation Merger, the internal affairs of the Company ceased to be subject to the DGCL or governed by the Predecessor Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Delaware Certificate”) and its Bylaws (the “Delaware Bylaws”). As of the Effective Time, the Company is subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) and is governed by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Nevada Articles”) and Bylaws (the “Nevada Bylaws”).

 

While the Company sought to maintain the material rights of stockholders by adopting the Nevada Articles and the Nevada Bylaws with provisions similar to the provisions of the Delaware Certificate and Delaware Bylaws, there are also key differences that may impact the rights of stockholders. A description of these differences, as well as certain differences between the NRS and the DGCL, are included in the definitive information statement filed by the Predecessor Registrant with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 5, 2021 (the “Information Statement”), under “Additional Information Regarding the Incorporation Merger”, which is 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 Information Statement, 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. The descriptions of the Nevada Articles and the Nevada Bylaws contained herein, including those incorporated by reference to the Information Statement, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Nevada Articles and the Nevada Bylaws filed as Exhibit 3.3 and Exhibit 3.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed for the purpose of establishing the Company as the successor issuer to the Predecessor Registrant pursuant to Rule 12g-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act, the shares of Company Common Stock, as successor issuer, are deemed registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.

For more information concerning these liabilities and obligations, see generally the Predecessor Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021, and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed prior to the date hereof, which are incorporated herein by reference.
