更大的资本基金、LP 和 District 2 Capital Fund LP
与 Sysorex 合作,最大限度地提高现值
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
亲爱的各位股东,
Bigger Capital Fund, LP and District 2 Capital Fund LP (together with its affiliates, the "Funds"), are now among the largest shareholders of Sysorex, Inc. ("Sysorex" or the "Company"), with ownership of approximately 9.6% of the Company's outstanding common stock. Bigger Capital Fund, LP and District 2 Capital Fund LP are research intensive investment funds. The Funds are led by Michael Bigger, a highly respected value investor who has achieved great success investing in various companies over more than 30 years. Joining Michael in the District 2 Capital Fund LP entity is Eric Schlanger, Co-Portfolio Manager and former Head of Equities, Americas at Barclays.
Bigger Capital Fund、LP和District 2 Capital Fund LP(及其附属公司 “基金”)现在是Sysorex, Inc.(“Sysorex” 或 “公司”)的最大股东之一,拥有该公司已发行普通股的9.6%左右。更大的资本基金、有限责任公司和第二区资本基金有限责任公司是研究密集型投资基金。这些基金由迈克尔·比格(Michael Bigger)领导,他是一位备受尊敬的价值投资者,在过去的30多年中,他在投资多家公司取得了巨大的成功。巴克莱银行联合投资组合经理兼前美洲股票主管埃里克·施兰格(Eric Schlanger)加入了第二区资本基金有限责任公司。
The Funds believe there is significant untapped value in Sysorex. The Funds do not intend to advocate for, or otherwise have any plans with respect to any operational or management changes; instead, the Funds intend to work with Sysorex regarding strategic matters to better position the Company to recognize this untapped potential.
基金认为,Sysorex还有大量未开发的价值。基金不打算倡导任何运营或管理变革,也不打算以其他方式制定任何计划;相反,基金打算就战略问题与Sysorex合作,使公司能够更好地认识到这种尚未开发的潜力。
Specifically, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, Sysorex intends to close on or about May 24, 2022, the transaction outlined in a Heads of Terms (the "Heads of Terms"), dated March 24, 2022, between Sysorex and Ostendo Technologies, Inc. ("Ostendo"). Upon closing, Sysorex will be the beneficial owner of 7,291,667 shares of Ostendo's preferred stock (the "Ostendo Preferred Shares").
具体而言,在满足某些成交条件的前提下,Sysorex打算在2022年5月24日左右完成Sysorex和Ostendo Technologies, Inc.(“Ostendo”)在2022年3月24日条款负责人(“条款负责人”)中概述的交易。收盘后,Sysorex将成为奥斯坦多7,291,667股优先股(“奥斯坦多优先股”)的受益所有人。
Ostendo is a technology company that designed a Quantum Photonic Imager platform, purpose-built, to create next-generation, light field semiconductor chips and augmented reality hardware for consumer, enterprise and defense applications. With the financial backing of industry heavy-weights such as PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel and funding from government agencies including DARPA, Ostendo is the creator of what the Funds believe is ground-breaking technology with a wide array of applicability augmenting reality and enriching the metaverse.
Ostendo是一家科技公司,专门设计了量子光子成像器平台,用于为消费、企业和国防应用创建下一代光场半导体芯片和增强现实硬件。在 PayPal 联合创始人 Peter Thiel 等行业巨头的财政支持以及包括 DARPA 在内的政府机构的资助下,Ostendo 是基金认为具有广泛适用性的开创性技术的创造者,可以增强现实并丰富元宇宙。
Pursuant to the Heads of Terms, the Ostendo Preferred Shares are valued at $70,000,000. Mr. Bigger and the Funds strongly believe in the viability of the technology and the growth potential of Ostendo's products; Mr. Bigger was further very impressed with a demonstration of Ostendo's augmented reality glasses, which he personally experienced. Notwithstanding the above, neither Mr. Bigger nor the Funds have independently verified this valuation, which is based on the valuation attributable to Ostendo's most recent, approximately $40 million, raise (Ostendo represents it has raised nearly $290 million to date from prominent investors). After the announcement of the Heads of Terms, the Funds increased their respective position in Sysorex to become one of the largest shareholders of Sysorex.
根据条款负责人,Ostendo优先股的价值为7000万美元。Bigger先生和基金坚信这项技术的可行性以及Ostendo产品的增长潜力;他亲自体验的Ostendo增强现实眼镜的演示给Bigger先生留下了深刻的印象。尽管如此,Bigger先生和基金都没有独立核实这一估值,该估值基于奥斯坦多最近一次筹集的约4000万美元的估值(Ostendo表示迄今已从知名投资者那里筹集了近2.9亿美元)。条款负责人公布后,基金增加了各自在Sysorex的头寸,成为Sysorex的最大股东之一。
In addition to owning an approximate 9.6% interest in the Company's common stock, the Funds hold an aggregate of (i) $2,250,000 in 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Debentures (the "Debentures") and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 796,112 shares of Sysorex's common stock. While the Debentures have a floating conversion price based on the trading price of Sysorex's common stock, the Funds have no intention of converting the Debentures into shares of Sysorex's common stock for the foreseeable future. As indicated above, the Funds own common stock of Sysorex and may also engage in future transactions with respect to Sysorex's common stock including both purchases and sales.
除了拥有公司普通股约9.6%的权益外,这些基金还持有(i)12.5%的原始发行折扣优先担保可转换债券(“债券”)225万美元,以及(ii)购买共796,112股Sysorex普通股的认股权证。尽管债券的转换价格基于Sysorex普通股的交易价格,但基金无意在可预见的将来将债券转换为Sysorex普通股的股份。如上所述,基金拥有Sysorex的普通股,还可能参与Sysorex普通股的未来交易,包括购买和出售。
