Filing text
View original ↗Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 10, 2017 and was declared
effective by the Commission on May 16, 2017 (the “Registration Statement”), and a related prospectus. The Company
currently intends to use these proceeds for working capital purposes.
In
a concurrent private placement (the “Private Placement”), the Company agreed to issue to the Purchasers, for each
share of Common Stock purchased in the Offering, a common warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (the “Common Warrants”).
The Common Warrants are exercisable six months following the initial exercise date and terminate five years following issuance.
The Common Warrants have an exercise price of $7.00 per share and are exercisable to purchase an aggregate of up to 357,143 shares
of Common Stock. A holder of a Common Warrant will not have the right to exercise any portion of its warrants if the holder, together
with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or 9.99% at the election of the holder prior to the date of issuance)
of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership
Limitation”); provided, however, that upon 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that in no event shall the Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.99%.
The
Common Warrants and the shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Common Warrants are not being registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), are not being offered pursuant to the Registration
Statement, and are being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b)
promulgated thereunder.
Until
the earlier of (i) the date that less than 25% of the shares of 0% Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series G Preferred
Stock”) issued at the closing of the Offering remain outstanding or (ii) August 31, 2020, neither the Company nor any subsidiary
shall issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or
any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock (the “Common Stock Equivalents”)
at a price per share less than the conversion price of the Series G Preferred Stock or the exercise price of the Common Warrants
without the consent of the Purchasers, subject to certain exemptions. We also agreed not to issue, enter into any agreement to
issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent for a period of 60
days following the closing of the Offering; provided, however, that the foregoing prohibition will terminate in the event that
the consolidated closing price of Common Stock has been at least $7.00 for ten consecutive trading days. In addition, we agreed
not to effect or enter into an agreement to effect any issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents involving a variable
rate transaction, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Common Warrants.
The
closing of the Offering and the Private Placement is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions set forth in the
Purchase Agreement and is expected to occur on or around March 31, 2020. The representations, warranties and covenants contained
in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement. In addition, such representations,
warranties and covenants (i) are intended as a way of allocating the risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement and not
as statements of fact, and (ii) may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material
by stockholders of, or other investors in, the Company. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is filed with this report only to
provide investors with information regarding the terms of transaction, and not to provide investors with any other factual information
regarding the Company. Stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof
as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company. 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 public disclosures.
In
connection with the Offering, on March 29, 2020, the Company also entered into an exchange agreement with holders of shares of
the Company’s 0% Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series F Preferred Stock”) pursuant to which 127
shares of the Company’s Series F Preferred Stock are to be exchanged for 127 shares of the Series G Preferred Stock (such
exchange, together with transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement, the “Transactions”). The exchange
will be made in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The Series G Preferred
Stock will have substantially the same terms as that of the Series F Preferred Stock except the conversion price of the Series
G Preferred Stock will be $5.60 per share.
On
March 29, 2020, the Company entered into an advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with Palladium Capital Advisors,
LLC (“Palladium”) in connection with the Offering and the Private Placement for a fixed fee in shares of Common Stock,
which shall be valued at the closing price on the date of issuance, with an aggregate value of $135,000 (the “Palladium
Shares”). The Palladium Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act, and are being offered pursuant to the
exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. Palladium has represented
that it was an “accredited investor” (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act).

do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Advisory Agreement, the Purchase Agreement,
