Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 22, 2022, we entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreement”) with 21 accredited investors (“Investors”), pursuant to which the Investors purchased an aggregate of 517,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share at a per share purchase price of $3.00, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,551,000 (the “Offering”). The Company may hold additional closings, but there is no guarantee as to how much additional proceeds, if any, it will receive.
In connection with the Subscription Agreement, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to register all of the shares of common stock issued in the Offering, including the shares of common stock underlying the warrant issued to the placement agent.
Pursuant to the Offering, the Company paid a cash placement agent fee of $101,030 and will issue placement agent warrants (“Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase up to 29,067 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. We also agreed to pay certain expenses of the placement agent in connection with the Offering.
The Subscription Agreement also contains customary representation and warranties of the Company and the Investors, indemnification obligations of the Company, termination provisions, and other obligations and rights of the parties.
The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and form of Placement Agent Warrants is qualified by reference to the full text of the forms of Subscription Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement and form of Placement Agent Warrants, which are filed as Exhibits hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K, nor any exhibit attached hereto, is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares described herein. Such disclosure does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sales of the Company’s securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities mentioned herein have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information contained above under Item 1.01, to the extent applicable, is hereby incorporated by reference herein. Based in part upon the representations of the Investors in the Subscription Agreement, the offering and sale of the shares of common stock was made in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities or “blue sky” laws. The shares of common stock have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. The sale of the shares of common stock did not involve a public offering and was made without general solicitation or general advertising. The Company relied on this exemption from registration based in part on representations made by the Investors.
Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K nor any exhibit attached hereto is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy shares of common stock or other securities of the Company.
