INTRODUCTORY NOTE
As previously disclosed in that Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Prior 8-K”) filed by NextTrip, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 11, 2025, on February 6, 2025, the Company entered into Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with FSA Travel, LLC (“FSA”), John McMahon, as Majority Member, and the other members of FSA included on the signature page thereto (Mr. McMahon together with such other members, collectively the “FSA Members”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on February 10, 2025 (the “Initial Closing Date”), NextTrip purchased 9,608 membership units of FSA (equal to a 49% ownership stake in FSA immediately after closing) in exchange for NextTrip’s (i) payment of $500,000 in cash and (ii) issuance of 161,291 shares of newly designated Series O Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (“Series O Preferred”) to FSA (the “Initial Closing”).
As further disclosed in the Prior 8-K, subject to satisfaction of the conditions discussed below, the Purchase Agreement provides the Company with an option (the “Option”), in its sole discretion, to purchase the remaining 51% of the membership units in FSA from the FSA Members within 60 days of the Initial Closing Date, in exchange for (i) the payment by the Company to the FSA Members of an aggregate of $500,000 in cash and (ii) the issuance of an aggregate of 161,291 shares of Series O Preferred to the FSA Members (the “Final Closing”). The Company’s Option was subject to, and contingent upon, satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) the continued employment of John McMahon and Courtney May by the Company, subject to limited exceptions, (ii) the completion of a $2,000,000 capital raise by the Company, and (iii) the continued operation of FSA by FSA’s existing management until the Final Closing Date.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On April 9, 2025 (the “Final Closing Date”), the Company exercised the Option and, in satisfaction of its obligations under the Purchase Agreement in connection with the Final Closing, the Company paid the FSA Members an aggregate of $500,000 in cash and issued the FSA Members an aggregate of 161,291 shares of Series O Preferred. As a result, as of the Final Closing Date, the Company acquired the remaining 51% of the membership units in FSA and FSA became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
The Company utilized funds received from the Donald P. Monaco Trust (the “Trust”) in exchange for an unsecured promissory note on April 9, 2025, as disclosed in that Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Commission on April 10, 2025, to fund the cash portion of the payments made to the FSA Members in connection with the Final Closing. Donald Monaco, Chairman of the Company’s board of directors, is the trustee of the Trust.
As disclosed in the Prior 8-K, in addition to the consideration paid to FSA and the FSA Members in connection with the Initial Closing and Final Closing, respectively, the Purchase Agreement provides that the Company shall make additional payments to the Members upon achievement of certain milestones, as more particularly set forth in the Prior 8-K.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Prior 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information in Item 2.01 regarding the sale and issuance of the shares of Series O Preferred to the FSA Members in connection with the Final Closing is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
The shares of Series O Preferred issued by the Company in the Final Closing have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and were issued to the recipient in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, the shares of Series O Preferred constitute, and the shares of Company common stock underlying the shares of Series O Preferred, when issued upon conversion of the Series O Preferred shares, will constitute, “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Act.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 14, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing completion of the Final Closing, a copy of which press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
The information in Item 7.01 of this Report, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed subject to the requirements of Item 10 of Regulation S-K, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing. The furnishing of this information hereby shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any such information.
