On March
23, 2010, OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“OCZ”),
consummated a private placement of 5,151,662 shares of its common stock at $3.00
per share under the terms and conditions of a Securities Purchase Agreement,
dated March 23, 2010, between OCZ and each of several institutional and
accredited individual investors listed therein (the “Purchase
Agreement”). OCZ received gross proceeds of approximately
$15.45 million. The investors also received warrants to purchase up
to an aggregate of 2,575,831 shares of common stock at an exercise price of
$5.25 per share (the “Purchase
Warrants”). The warrants were exercisable upon issuance, will
expire on March 23, 2015 and may be exercised by the holders on a cashless
basis. Among other terms, the warrants provide for certain
anti-dilution provisions and, in the event of a change-in-control, the holders
may elect to receive a cash payment equal to the value of the warrants at such
time based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
OCZ sold
the shares and issued the warrants without registration under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or
state securities laws, in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(2) of
the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder and in reliance on similar
exemptions under applicable state securities laws. OCZ has agreed,
under a Registration Rights Agreement between OCZ and each of the investors (the
“Registration
Agreement”), to file a registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission covering the shares of common stock sold to the investors
and the shares of common stock underlying the Purchase Warrants on or prior to
May 21, 2010.
In
connection with the offering, OCZ paid a placement agent commission of $1.08
million in cash and 4,000 shares of common stock. In addition, OCZ
issued a warrant (the “Placement Agent
Warrant”) under which the placement agent has both the right to purchase
up to 154,440 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share,
and at the time of such exercise, receive a subsequent warrant to purchase
proportionate number of shares of an aggregate of 77,275 shares of common stock
at an exercise price of $5.25 per share. Although the former warrant
is exercisable upon issuance, the latter warrant is not to be issued, and
therefore may not be exercised, unless and until the former warrant has been
exercised. The Placement Agent Warrant and any subsequent warrant (if
and when issued) are exercisable until March 23, 2015 and may be exercised on a
cashless basis.
The
foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Warrants, the
Registration Agreement and the Placement Agent Warrant are qualified in their
entirety by the full text of such documents which are filed as Exhibits 4.1,
4.2, 4.3 and 4.4, respectively, to this report and incorporated by reference
into this Item 3.02.
