INTRODUCTION

 

This Amendment No. 3 to the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (the “Schedule”) is being filed by Rokk3r Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Rokk3r”, the “Company”), and Rokk3r Labs LLC, Rokk3r Fuel Fund 2, LP, Nabyl Charania, German Montoya, Jeffrey S. Ransdell, and Salim Ismail (collectively, and together with Rokk3r Inc., the “Filing Persons”) under Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 13e-3 promulgated thereunder, in connection with the Company’s proposed 200-for-1 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Company will pay out fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split and intends to “go private” thereafter.

 

The Reverse Stock Split was approved by Rokk3r’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on March 16, 2020. On March 16, 2020, Rokk3r stockholders (all of whom are affiliated stockholders) holding approximately 88% of our outstanding Common Stock delivered to Rokk3r their consent approving the Reverse Stock Split and other transactions contemplated thereby. The stockholder consent is sufficient under Nevada law to approve the certificate of amendment and the Reverse Stock Split without the concurrence of any other stockholders. The Reverse Stock Split is expected to take effect no sooner than twenty (20) days following the mailing of a definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C to stockholders of record as of March 16, 2020, the record date for stockholders entitled to vote on the Reverse Stock Split (the “Effective Time”), subject to approval by, and compliance with the requirements of, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

  

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold less than 200 shares of existing common stock at the Effective Time will receive cash in the amount of $0.64 per share of existing pre-reverse split Common Stock and will cease to be stockholders of Rokk3r after the reverse stock split. The amount of cash each holder of fractional Common Stock will receive will be calculated by multiplying the number of shares of existing common stock held by the stockholder on the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split (the “Effective Date”) by $0.64. Stockholders who hold more than 200 shares of existing Common Stock on the Effective Date will receive: (i) one share of new Common Stock for each 200 shares of existing Common Stock held on the effective date of the reverse split; and (ii) cash in lieu of any fractional share of new common stock that such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive on the basis of $0.64 per share of existing common stock.

 

Believing that Rokk3r currently derives no material benefit from its public company status and the thin trading market in our Common Stock has not provided liquidity to our stockholders, the Board concluded that Rokk3r should terminate its public company status. The completion of the Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock from 106,834,926 shares to approximately 534,025 shares.

 

Upon conclusion of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of stockholders will be reduced to approximately 80. This will allow the Company to terminate the registration of its Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to suspend its reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. After the suspension of the Company’s duty to file periodic reports and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company will cease to file reports and information with the SEC.

 

The Company’s exchange agent, Securities Transfer Corporation, will process the Reverse Stock Split on or about the 20th day following the mailing of a definitive information statement to be filed on Schedule 14C describing the reverse stock split.

 

The total amount of funds necessary to make cash payments to stockholders in connection with the Reverse Stock Split will be approximately $20,000. In addition, the other expenses incurred to effect the reverse stock split are estimated to be approximately $60,000. We expect to use cash on hand to pay the cash consideration in connection with the reverse stock split and other expenses for the reverse stock split.

 

Information contained in (i) the Company’s definitive information statement on Schedule 14C filed on April 27, 2020 (the “Information Statement”), (ii) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed by the Company on April 1, 2019 (the “Form 10-K”) and (iii) the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed by the Company for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2019, June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2019 filed on May 15, 2019, August 26, 2019 and November 19, 2019, as amended, respectively (the “Form 10-Qs”) is incorporated into this Schedule 13E-3 by reference. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the meanings given to them in the Company’s disclosure statement attached to this Schedule and made a part hereof.
