REGULATION
FD DISCLOSURE
|
On
January 11, 2010, Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. issued a press release announcing
that it had filed two registration statements on Form S-1 with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
One
registration statement relates to a proposed public offering by Oramed of 24
million shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 12 million shares of
common stock, as well as warrants to purchase up to approximately 2.5 million
shares of common stock issuable to the placement agent of the
offering.
This
offering shall be made only by means of a prospectus. Copies of the preliminary
prospectus, when available, may be obtained from Oramed. The
registration statement may be accessed through the SEC’s website at
www.sec.gov.
Oramed
expects to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund its planned research
and development activities, as well as some other general and administrative
costs.
The
second filing is a shelf registration statement relating to a resale offering by
certain Oramed stockholders of approximately 8.5 million shares of common stock
and approximately 4.8 million shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise
of warrants held by stockholders of Oramed who purchased such securities in
private placement transactions.
A copy of
the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1
and is incorporated by reference herein.
