Logflex MT Holding Limited (Novibet) executed the letter of intent to acquire Artemis Strategic Investment Corporation (NasdaqGM:ARTE) from a group of shareholders for approximately $720 million in a reverse merger transaction on December 22, 2021. Logflex MT Holding Limited (Novibet) entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Artemis Strategic Investment Corporation from a group of shareholders in a reverse merger transaction on March 28, 2022. Under the merger agreement, Artemis will merge into a new wholly-owned subsidiary of Novibet in a transaction based on Novibet's pre-transaction enterprise valuation of $625 million. Pro forma for the transaction, the implied enterprise valuation is approximately $696 million (assuming no redemptions from Artemis stockholders). Pursuant to the merger agreement, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set forth therein, immediately prior to the effective time, Komisium will sell and transfer all issued ordinary shares and other equity interests of Novibet to PubCo, in consideration for (a) an amount of cash, which will not exceed $50 million, equal to the excess of Gross Closing Proceeds over $100 million and (b) a number of PubCo Ordinary Share s calculated by subtracting the closing cash consideration from $625 million, divided by $10.20. In addition to the closing share consideration and closing cash consideration, following the closing, Komisium may receive up to 9,803,921 additional PubCo Ordinary Shares as earnout consideration. On September 2, 2022, the parties entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Merger Agreement pursuant to which, the value of the closing consideration payable to Komisium in the transaction reduced from $625 million to $500 million; provided that if redemptions are equal to or exceed 85% of Artemis' total public shares outstanding, then Komisium will be issued additional share consideration valued at $125 million. The amendment also provide that the earn-out structure from a single tranche of earnout shares payable if a stock price target is met altered to dual tranches payable if certain operating targets based on Net Gaming Revenue are met.

Novibet is expected to have approximately $135 million of unrestricted cash at closing (assuming no redemptions) as well as continued positive cash flow from existing operations to drive global expansion. The transaction will result in approximately $205 million of SPAC cash-in-trust (assuming no redemptions from Artemis stockholders). Following completion of the transaction, Novibet's ordinary shares will be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Artemis founders and existing Novibet stakeholders will hold approximately 75% of the combined company at close. Novibet's shareholder will roll at least 92% of their equity into ordinary shares of the combined company. It is anticipated that, immediately following the business combination, Artemis's public stockholders will own approximately 25%, Artemis Sponsor, LLC and certain anchor investors in Artemis will own approximately 6% while Komisium will own approximately 69% of the outstanding ordinary shares of the combined company. Rodolfo Odoni, current owner of Novibet will be named Executive Chairman of Novibet's board, while George Athanasopoulos, Chief Executive Officer of Novibet, will remain Chief Executive Officer and a director. Artemis will appoint two representatives to the Novibet Board of Directors. In anticipation of the deal completing, Novibet has appointed Christoforos Bozatzidis to the newly created role of Chief Marketing Officer for international markets. In addition, Thomas Granite, who currently serves as Chief Financial Officer, treasurer and secretary of Artemis, has been appointed as Chief Financial Officer and treasurer of Novibet, effective upon completion of the merger. Samy David will serve as a director, as will Holly Gagnon, currently co-chief executive and chairperson of Artemis. Philip Kaplan, the co-chief executive and president of Artemis, will take the final director role on the board.

The closing is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among other things approval by Artemis' stockholders; the approval of the listing of the PubCo Ordinary shares to be issued to Artemis stockholders in connection with the business combination on the Nasdaq Stock Market subject to official notice of issuance; Artemis shall have delivered, or caused to be delivered an executed resignation letter from each director and officer of Artemis; the Registration Statement becoming effective; the accuracy of the representations and warranties, covenants and agreements of Novibet, Komisium, and Artemis, respectively; (the absence of any material adverse effect that is continuing with respect to Novibet, Komisium, and Artemis, respectively, between the date of the merger agreement and the date of the closing; the absence of any governmental order, statute, rule or regulation enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the business combination; solely as a condition to Novibet's obligations to consummate the closing, there being a minimum cash of $50 million contained in the trust account maintained by Artemis (following any redemptions by Artermis's public stockholders), on Artemis' balance sheet and/or from the aggregate amount of gross proceeds from any subscription or investment agreement entered into by Novibet, or Artemis between the date of the merger agreement and closing and, the public warrants of Artemis to be assumed by PubCo in accordance with the merger agreement will have been approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance.
