Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement,


Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Introduction

On July 6, 2012, Universal Business Payment Solutions Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("UBPSAC") entered into three definitive agreements to acquire the following three companies: (i) JetPay, LLC, a Texas limited liability company ("JetPay") and certain affiliated entities; (ii) Francis David Corporation (d/b/a/ Electronic Merchant Systems), an Ohio corporation ("EMS") and certain affiliated entities; and (iii) AD Computer Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation ("ADC") and certain affiliated entities. The agreements to acquire each of these entities are more fully described below. The board of directors of UBPSAC has approved each of the agreements with JetPay, EMS and ADC and the transactions contemplated thereby.

JetPay

General

On July 6, 2012, UBPSAC, JP Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of UBPSAC (the "JetPay Merger Sub"), JetPay, and WLES, L.P., a Texas limited partnership ("WLES") and Trent Voigt, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "JetPay Agreement").

Pursuant to the terms of the JetPay Agreement, the JetPay Merger Sub will merge with and into JetPay, with JetPay surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of UBPSAC (the "JetPay Merger") in exchange for consideration in the form of cash and common stock of UBPSAC, par value $0.001 (the "Parent Common Stock") as further described below under the heading "Consideration." Prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the JetPay Agreement, JetPay will acquire all of the outstanding interests in two affiliated entities, JetPay ISO Services, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, and JetPay Merchant Services, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (such entities together with JetPay, the "JetPay Entities"), each of which will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of JetPay following the JetPay Merger.

The JetPay Agreement is described below in greater detail. The description of the JetPay Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the JetPay Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein. You are urged to read the entire JetPay Agreement and the other exhibits attached hereto.

Consideration

Upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the JetPay Agreement, WLES will receive aggregate consideration consisting of: (a) $28,000,000 in cash (the "JetPay Cash Merger Consideration"); and (b) 2,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock (the "JetPay Stock Merger Consideration"). The JetPay Cash Merger Consideration is subject to certain adjustments relating to the net working capital, cash and indebtedness of the JetPay Entities. In addition to the Closing Date Merger Consideration, WLES shall be entitled to receive $5,000,000 in cash and 833,333 shares of Parent Common Stock upon a redemption of the warrants issued in connection with UBPSAC's initial public offering and achievement of certain stock price targets based upon the trading price of the Parent Common Stock.

Also at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the JetPay Agreement, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the JetPay Agreement, UBPSAC will deposit $10,000,000 of the JetPay Cash Merger Consideration and 1,666,667 shares of the JetPay Stock Merger Consideration, subject to certain pre-closing adjustments, in an escrow fund, which shall be available to UBPSAC and JetPay as the surviving entity, as partial security for WLES's obligations under the JetPay Agreement. UBPSAC has agreed to enter into an escrow agreement with JetPay and JP Morgan, as escrow agent thereunder, to govern the rights and obligations of the parties thereto with respect to such funds.

Non-Compete

WLES and each of the WLES partners agree that, from the closing date for a period of five years, they will not, nor will they permit any of their affiliates to directly or indirectly engage in any competing business in the United States or engage in certain activities in competition with the business of UBPSAC, JetPay or their subsidiaries.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Parties

The JetPay Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. Subject to certain exceptions, the representations and warranties of the parties contained in the JetPay Agreement will survive until the 18 month anniversary of the closing of the transactions contemplated thereunder. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the JetPay Agreement are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules delivered together with the JetPay Agreement. The disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the JetPay Agreement. Accordingly, the representations, warranties and covenants should not be relied on as characterizations of the actual state of facts, since they may be modified by the disclosure schedules.

Additionally, the parties have agreed to a variety of customary covenants and agreements, including with respect to confidentiality, cooperation and similar matters. In addition, each of JetPay and WLES has agreed to continue to operate their business in the ordinary course prior to closing, subject to specified exceptions and unless UBPSAC agrees otherwise.

Indemnification

The JetPay Agreement provides the parties standard indemnification rights with respect to breaches of the JetPay Agreement. UBPSAC is also receiving indemnification for specific contingent liabilities disclosed by JetPay prior to signing. Except for certain of JetPay's representations and warranties (including as to tax matters and certain "fundamental representations"), no indemnification amounts will be payable with respect to breaches of the representations and warranties unless and until the aggregate amount of all indemnifiable damages otherwise payable exceeds $125,000, at which point UBPSAC and the surviving entity can recover for all damages incurred, and the maximum amount of indemnifiable damages recoverable with respect to such claims shall not exceed $6,000,000. All other claims for indemnification, except for claims related to indemnifiable taxes, fraud or material misrepresentation and tax-related representations and warranties are capped at the combined value of the JetPay Cash Merger Consideration and JetPay Stock Merger Consideration.

Conditions to Closing the JetPay Merger

The obligations of the parties to consummate the JetPay Agreement are subject to various closing conditions, including, among others: (a) no governmental authority enacts, issues, promulgates, enforces or enters any law or order that is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the JetPay Merger illegal; (b) the approval of UBPSAC's stockholders; (c) holders of less . . .

2,000,000 shares to WLES, 3,333,333 shares to the EMS Stockholders and 1,000,000 shares to the ADC Stockholders.

In addition, 833,333 and 1,666,666 shares of Parent Common Stock will be issuable to each of WLES and the EMS Stockholders, respectively, upon the achievement of certain targets more fully described above.

The shares will be issued in a private placement not involving a public offering under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.
