ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On June 30, 2000, Hancock Holdings, Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary
of Orion Technologies, Inc., acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of Transaction Verification Systems, Incorporated ("TVS") through its
merger with TVS in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated as of June 8, 2000 ("Merger Agreement") between Orion,
Hancock, and TVS. Upon the consummation of the Merger, Hancock changed its
name to Transaction Verification Systems, Incorporated (the "Surviving
Company").
Prior to the Merger, TVS had 546,380 shares of common stock, par value
$0.05 ("TVS Common Stock"), and 20,000 shares of preferred stock, par value
$10.00 ("TVS Preferred Stock"), outstanding. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
each share of TVS Common Stock was converted into the right to receive 0.3661
shares of Orion common stock, par value $0.001 ("Orion Common Stock"). A
total of 200,030 shares of Orion Common Stock will be issued to the holders of
the TVS Common Stock. Each share of the TVS Preferred Stock was converted
into either the right to receive a promissory note from the Surviving Company
in the amount of Ten Dollars ($10.00) per share, or upon the holder's
providing proper notice to Orion, the right to convert each TVS Preferred share
into 2.5 shares of Orion Common Stock. So far, the holders of 9,206
shares of TVS Preferred Stock elected to receive Orion Common Stock. Any
holders of TVS Preferred Stock who do not elect to receive Orion Common Stock
will receive a promissory note. The promissory notes bear 8% per annum simple
interest, with principal and interest are due and payable on December 31, 2000,
with each note being guaranteed by Orion. The Surviving Company intends to pay
the promissory notes, when due, cash flow from operations.
The Merger Agreement contained a share adjustment provision pursuant
to which, if the combined market value of the promissory notes and Orion Common
Stock issued pursuant to the Merger does not equal $1,000,000 on the 60th day
following the Merger, then additional shares of Orion Common Stock would be
issued on a pro rata basis in order to increase the total consideration for the
Merger to an amount equal to $1,000,000 as of that date. The consideration was
determined by arms-length negotiations between Orion, Hancock and TVS and was
presented to and approved by the directors of each corporation and the
shareholders of Hancock and TVS.
Pursuant to the Merger, the Surviving Company acquired all of the
assets of TVS, which consisted primarily of customer trade receivables,
inventory, property and equipment, and other intangibles. The Surviving Company
intends to use these assets to continue and expand the business operations
of TVS.
TVS is engaged in the design and manufacture of point of sale
interface systems, allowing merchants and retailers to record and monitor their
transactions in order to reduce inventory shrinkage. The TVS systems record
point of sale transactions in real time and allow management to analyze employee
and customer activity through the use of customized software. TVS has 24 full
and part-time employees working at its offices in Falls Church, Virginia.
