The Merger Agreement

On March 27, 2023, Nova Vision Acquisition Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (“NOVA” or “Parent”), entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and between NOVA and Real Messenger Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), pursuant to which (a) NOVA will form Real Messenger Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company, as its wholly owned subsidiary (“Purchaser”), (b) Purchaser will form RM2 Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company, as its wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), (c) NOVA will be merged with and into Purchaser (the “Reincorporation Merger”), with Purchaser surviving the Reincorporation Merger, and (d) Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Acquisition Merger”), with the Company surviving the Acquisition Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (collectively, the “Business Combination”). Following the Business Combination, Purchaser will be a publicly traded company.

Consideration

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will issue 7,500,000 ordinary shares with a deemed price per share of US$10.00 for a total value of $75,000,000 (“Aggregate Stock Consideration”) to the current shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”), among which, 6,000,000 ordinary shares (the “Closing Payment Shares”) will be delivered to the Shareholders at the Closing and 1,500,000 ordinary shares will be held back by Purchaser for one year after the Closing as security for indemnification obligation of the representations and warranties of the Company as set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Holdback Shares”). The Closing Payment Shares consist of 6,000,000 Class B ordinary shares and 1,500,000 Class A ordinary shares. In addition, at the Closing, Purchaser will issue an additional 7,500,000 ordinary shares (the “Earnout Shares”), such shares to be held by a third party and paid out to the Shareholders as conditional earnout consideration, subject to the achievement of certain earnout milestones. The Earnout Shares consist of 6,000,000 Class B ordinary shares and 1,500,000 Class A ordinary shares. The Class B ordinary shares and the Class A ordinary shares of Purchaser are identical, except that each Class B ordinary share is entitled to ten votes on all shareholder voting matters while each Class A ordinary shares is entitled to one vote.

The Earnout

The Earnout Shares may be released to the Shareholders as contingent post-closing earnout consideration. The earnout milestones are in five tiers, and are based on Purchaser’s performance during the years 2024 through 2028, with specific targets tied to the trading price of Purchaser’s ordinary shares, Purchaser’s revenue and Purchaser’s EBITDA.

The Closing
