The 2016-2017 Offering

 

On November 25, 2016, the Company held a closing of a private placement offering (the “2016-2017 Offering”) in which it sold 322,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at a fixed purchase price of $5.00 per share (the “2016-2017 Offering Price”) to accredited investors, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,610,000. The Company did not use placement agents in connection with this closing and incurred minimal legal costs.

 

During December 2016, the Company held a closing of the 2016-2017 Offering in which it sold 410,997 shares of Common Stock at the 2016-2017 Offering Price, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,054,985, before deducting commissions of $194,500 and expenses of $14,025. In connection with this closing, the Company agreed to pay a placement agent cash commissions not to exceed 10% of the gross proceeds raised from investors first contacted by the placement agent in the 2016-2017 Offering. In addition, the Company agreed to issue to the placement agent warrants to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 10% of the number of shares of Common Stock sold to investors first contacted by the placement agent in the 2016-2017 Offering as additional commissions. As a result of the foregoing, the placement agents were issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 38,900 shares of Common Stock. The warrants have a term of five years and an exercise price of $5.00 per share.

 

In accordance with the terms of the subscription agreements executed by the Company and each of the investors, if the Company issues additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents (subject to customary exceptions, including but not limited to issuances of awards under Company employee stock incentive programs and certain issuances in connection with credit arrangements, equipment financings, lease arrangements, or similar transactions) between November 25, 2016 and the date that is 90 days after the date on which a registration statement registering the resale of the shares issued in the 2016-2017 Offering is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), for a consideration per share less than the 2016-2017 Offering Price (as adjusted for any subsequent stock dividend, stock split, distribution, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, or similar event) (the “Lower Price”), each investor will be entitled to receive from the Company additional shares of Common Stock in an amount such that, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock initially purchased by such Investor, will equal the number of shares of Common Stock that such Investor’s investment in the Offering would have purchased at the Lower Price.
