Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On July 8, 2010, we entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement (the Securities Purchase Agreement) with three institutional investors, pursuant to which we agreed to issue to the investors in a registered offering 1,481,481 shares (the Shares) of our common stock priced at $2.565 per share along with Series A warrants to purchase up to 1,481,481 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.43 per share of common stock and Series B warrants to purchase up to 893,519 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.01 per share of common stock. The offering will raise gross proceeds to us of approximately $3.8 million before advisory fees and offering expenses.
The Series A warrants will be exercisable for a five-year period commencing six months after the date of their issuance. The Series B warrants will become initially exercisable on the 60 day anniversary of the date of their issuance if the market price (calculated in the manner described below) of our common stock on such anniversary date is less than the $2.565 per share purchase price of our common stock to be issued to the investors in the offering. In addition, the number of Series B warrants that will become exercisable will increase on the 120 day anniversary of the date of their issuance if the market price (calculated in the manner described below) of our common stock on such anniversary date is less than both the $2.565 per share purchase price of our common stock to be issued to the investors in the offering and the market price (calculated in the manner described below) on the 60-day anniversary of the date of the issuance of the Series B warrants. In each such event, the Series B warrants will be exercisable for a number of shares such that the average price per share of the (i) shares of common stock to be sold to the investors in the offering and (ii) the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series B warrants equals the greater of (i) the market price (calculated in the manner described below) of the common stock on the date of calculation and (ii) $1.60. For purposes of the Series B warrants, the term market price is 90% of the average of the weighted average price of our common stock during the 10 trading days preceding the date of calculation.
In addition, we granted each investor the right of first refusal to purchase 100% of the shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of our common stock to be issued by the us in certain offerings until the one (1) year anniversary of the date of the issuance of the Shares. Thereafter, each investor will have the right of first refusal to purchase 50% of the shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of our common stock to be issued by us in certain offerings until the two (2) year anniversary of the date of the issuance of the Shares.
We are offering the securities described above pursuant to a registration statement previously filed and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. A prospectus supplement related to the offering will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Copies of the prospectus supplement and accompanying base prospectus relating to this offering may be obtained at the SECs website at www.sec.gov. This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of our common stock. No offer, solicitation, or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale is unlawful.
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. is serving as our advisor in connection with the offering.
On July 8, 2010, we issued a press release announcing that we entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The descriptions of the Series A warrants, the Series B warrants and the Securities Purchase Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 10.1 attached hereto, respectively, which are incorporated by reference herein.
