Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 13, 2019, Brightcove Inc. (the “Company”), Othello Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“U.S. Sub”), and Brightcove, S. de R.L. de C.V., a Mexico sociedad de responsabilidad limitada de capital variable and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Mexico Sub”), entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Ooyala, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ooyala”), Ooyala Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller Parent”) and Ooyala México S. de R.L. de C.V., a Mexico sociedad de responsabilidad limitada de capital variable (the “Seller Subsidiary”, and together with Ooyala and Seller Parent, the “Sellers”).

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Sellers will sell, and U.S. Sub and Mexico Sub will purchase, the online video platform (OVP) assets of Ooyala (the “Transaction”), in exchange for 1,056,763 unregistered shares of common stock of Brightcove Inc. (the “Shares”) and approximately $6.25 million of cash, which includes up to $500,000 as a reimbursement of Ooyala’s audit fees incurred in connection with the Transaction. The Purchase Agreement provides that approximately $2.65 million of the cash will be placed into an escrow account to settle certain claims for indemnification for breaches or inaccuracies in Ooyala’s representations and warranties, covenants, and agreements.

There are no material relationships among the Company and Ooyala or any of their respective affiliates or any of the other parties to the Purchase Agreement or the related ancillary agreements, other than in respect of such agreements.

The Transaction and the Purchase Agreement were approved by the board of directors of the Company, the board of directors of U.S. Sub, the board of directors and stockholders of Seller Parent, the board of directors of Ooyala and the sole stockholder of the Seller Sub. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants by each of the parties. The Transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2019, subject to customary closing conditions.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights under the Purchase Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

The Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors and stockholders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or Ooyala. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Purchase Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties or covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Ooyala or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in our public disclosures.
