As previously disclosed, on November 12, 2018, iPass entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among iPass, Pareteum and the Purchaser. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced an exchange offer (the “Offer”) for all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of iPass (the “iPass Shares”) for 1.17 shares of Pareteum common stock, par value $0.00001 per iPass Share, together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Pareteum common stock, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the “Transaction Consideration”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange dated December 4, 2018 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “Offer to Exchange”), and the related Letter of Transmittal. The Offer and withdrawal rights expired at 5 p.m. New York City time on February 12, 2019, and promptly following such time Purchaser accepted for payment and promptly paid for all validly tendered iPass Shares in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

3On February 12, 2019, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Pareteum completed its acquisition of iPass from the stockholders of iPass when Purchaser merged with and into iPass, with iPass surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pareteum (the “Merger”). The Merger was governed by Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”) with no stockholder vote required to consummate the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each iPass Share outstanding was converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration.

The aggregate consideration to be paid to stockholders of iPass by Pareteum to acquire iPass is approximately 9.865 million shares of Pareteum common stock.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2.1 to this Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.01.

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On February 12, 2019, as a result of the transactions described in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated by reference herein, Pareteum requested that the iPass Shares be withdrawn from listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Accordingly, on February 13, 2019, the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC (the “NASDAQ”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Form 25 Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to delist and deregister the iPass Shares. Upon the filing of the Form 25, the iPass Shares were delisted from the NASDAQ. iPass intends to file with the SEC a Form 15 under the Exchange Act relating to the iPass Shares, which will terminate and suspend iPass’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, respectively.

Item 3.03.

Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

At the Effective Time, each iPass Share outstanding was converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration.

The information contained in Items 1.01, 3.01, and 5.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

Item 5.01.

Changes in Control of Registrant.

As a result of Purchaser’s acceptance for payment of all validly tendered iPass Shares in accordance with the terms of the Offer and the consummation of the Merger under Section 251(h) of the DGCL on February 12, 2019, a change in control of iPass occurred. Upon the Effective Time, iPass became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pareteum. The information disclosed under Items 1.01, 2.01, 3.01, 3.03 and 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.01.

Item 5.02.

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time all of the members of iPass’s board of directors were removed and the directors of Purchaser immediately prior to the Effective Time, which consisted of Robert H. Turner and Yves van Sante, became the only directors of the Company immediately after the Effective Time. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by iPass with the SEC on November 13, 2018.

Following the Effective Time, the employment of Gary A. Griffiths, iPass's President and Chief Executive Officer, and Patricia R. Hume, iPass's Chief Commercial Officer, with iPass terminated. Ms. Hume joined Pareteum as Pareteum's Chief Marketing Officer. Darin R. Vickery will remain as Chief Financial Officer of iPass until March 15, 2019 to assist with Merger related transition activities and other matters.

The newly appointed directors of iPass are all existing executive officers and/or directors of Pareteum appointed to such director positions at iPass in connection with Pareteum’s acquisition of iPass and are not entering into additional compensation arrangements in connection with such appointments. Information regarding Messrs. Turner and van Sante can be found under the sections “Directors and Officers,” “Executive Officers,” “Executive Compensation,” “Director Compensation” and “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” in the Proxy Statement related to Pareteum’s 2017 Annual Meeting, as filed on Schedule 14A with the SEC on July 27, 2018, which information has been incorporated herein by reference. There are no family relationships between any of the newly appointed directors and officers of iPass and any director or other executive officer of iPass nor are there any transactions between any such director or officer or any immediate family of such person and iPass or any of its subsidiaries that would be reportable as a related party transaction under the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. There is also no other arrangement or understanding between any of the newly appointed directors and any other persons or entities pursuant to which such person was appointed as a director of iPass.
