Share Purchase Agreement relating to PET Labs
On October 30, 2023, ASP Isotopes Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Nucleonics Imaging Proprietary Limited, a company incorporated in the Republic of South Africa (“Seller”), relating to the purchase and sale of ordinary shares in the issued share capital of Pet Labs Pharmaceuticals Proprietary Limited, a company incorporated in the Republic of South Africa (“PET Labs”). PET Labs is a South African radiopharmaceutical operations company, dedicated to nuclear medicine and the science of radiopharmaceutical production.
Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to purchase from the Seller 51 ordinary shares in the issued share capital of PET Labs (representing 51% of the issued share capital of PET Labs) (the “Initial Sale Shares”) and has an option to purchase from the Seller the remaining 49 ordinary shares in the issued share capital of PET Labs (representing the remaining 49% of the issued share capital of PET Labs) (the “Option Shares”). The Company agreed to pay to the Seller an aggregate of USD 2,000,000 for the Initial Sale Shares, of which aggregate amount USD 500,000 is payable on the completion of the sale of the Initial Sale Shares (the “Completion Date”) and USD 1,500,000 is payable on demand after one calendar year from the agreement date. If the Company exercises its option to purchase the Option Shares (which option is exercisable from the agreement date until January 31, 2027, provided that the Initial Sale Shares have been paid for in full), the Company has agreed to pay USD 2,200,000 for the Option Shares.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties.
The Purchase Agreement is subject to a suspensive condition relating to the implementation of a pre-completion reorganization of the current shareholders of the Seller (the “Suspensive Condition”) within five business days of the agreement date (the “Satisfaction Date”). Unless fulfilled or otherwise waived by the parties, if the Suspensive Condition is not fulfilled by the Satisfaction Date, the Purchase Agreement provisions related to the purchase and sale of the ordinary shares of Pet Labs by Seller to the Company shall not become effective and the sale of such shares shall not be completed.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
