Entry
into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On
March 14, 2018, Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a letter agreement (the “Lock-Up
Agreement”) with Theodore Farnsworth, its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, pursuant to which
Mr. Farnsworth agreed that he would not sell or transfer any shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”)
held by him for a period of 24 months from the date of the Lock-Up Agreement, subject to certain permitted transfers as gifts,
by will or intestate succession or to a family trust, provided that any such transfer is not a disposition for value and the transferee
agrees to be bound by the Lock-Up Agreement. Mr. Farnsworth entered into the Lock-Up Agreement upon receipt from the Company of
the Bonus (as defined below in Item 5.02 of this Current Report).
The
above discussion does not purport to be a complete description of the Lock-Up Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the Lock-Up Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by
reference.

Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities.
|
From
December 29, 2017 through the date of this Current Report, the Company has issued an aggregate of 704,668 unregistered shares
(the “Consultant Shares”) of its Common Stock to various consultants for services rendered to the Company, all of
which consultants are business entities not wholly-owned by a single individual. The Company relied on Section 4(a)(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for the issuance of the Consultant Shares, inasmuch as the consultants
were accredited investors and neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf offered or sold any of such securities by
any form of general solicitation or general advertising.
As
previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
on August 15, 2017, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company, on August 10, 2017, approved the grant of
500,000 unregistered shares (the “Gadiyaram Shares”) of Common Stock to Muralikrishna Gadiyaram, a non-independent
director and consultant of the Company, subject to (a) completion of the transactions contemplated by that certain Securities
Purchase Agreement, dated August 15, 2017, as subsequently amended on October 6, 2017, by and between the Company and MoviePass
Inc. (“MoviePass”), and (b) stockholder approval in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c). As previously disclosed
in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 31, 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved the grant of
the Gadiyaram Shares at a special meeting of stockholders on October 27, 2017. In February 2018, upon entry into a grant letter
documenting the lock-up and other applicable restrictions on the Gadiyaram Shares (which restrictions were set forth in the Company’s
Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on October 3, 2017), the Company issued the Gadiyaram Shares to
Mr. Gadiyaram. The Company relied on Section 4(a)(2) of the Act for the issuance of the Gadiyaram Shares inasmuch as the recipient
is an accredited investor and neither Helios nor any person acting on its behalf offered or sold any of such securities by any
form of general solicitation or advertising.

On
March 9, 2018, the Board, upon recommendation from the Compensation Committee of the Board, granted Theodore Farnsworth, the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, a one-time cash bonus of $1,500,000 (the “Bonus”) in recognition
of recent extraordinary efforts on behalf of the Company, including his role in the Company’s completed offerings of its
securities for a total of $190,000,000 in gross proceeds since December 15, 2017 and his ongoing role in the acquisition of MoviePass
and the integration of the MoviePass business with the Company.
On
February 28, 2018, the Company satisfied all of its obligations due under its Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued to an institutional
investor on August 16, 2017 (the “August Notes”); therefore the August Notes have been extinguished. In addition,
as of the date of this Current Report, the Company has no unrestricted principle outstanding under the Senior Convertible Notes
issued to institutional investors on November 7, 2017 and January 23, 2018.
Accordingly,
as of the date of this Current Report, the Company owes no debt principal under any debt instruments.
As
of March 14, 2018, the Company had 43,299,563 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. This includes 9,100,000 shares that
the Company issued pursuant to the exercise of the pre-funded Series B-1 Warrants issued in the Company’s underwritten public
offering of Series A-1 Units and Series B-1 Units, as previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC
on February 13, 2018.
On
March 15, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing that it plans to spin off its wholly-owned subsidiary Zone Technologies,
Inc. (“Zone”) as a dividend distribution to the Company’s securities holders, following which Zone would become
an independent publicly traded company that the Company expects to also be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
