Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 26, 2012, ProPhase Labs, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Dutchess Opportunity Fund, II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Investor”). Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Investor committed to purchase, subject to certain restrictions and conditions, up to 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, over a period of 36 months from the first trading day following the effectiveness of the registration statement registering the resale of shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement.

 

The Company may in its discretion draw on the facility from time to time, as and when the Company determines appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement.  The maximum number of shares that the Company is entitled to put to the Investor in any one draw down notice is the greater of: (i) 500% of the average daily volume of the Company’s common stock traded on the NASDAQ Global Market for the one (1) trading day prior to the date of delivery of the applicable draw down notice, multiplied by the closing price for such trading day, or (ii) $250,000. 

 

The purchase price shall be set at ninety-five percent (95%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the five (5) consecutive trading day period beginning on the date of delivery of the applicable draw down notice. The Company has the right to withdraw all or any portion of any put, except that portion of the put that has already been sold to a third party, including any portion of a put that is below the minimum acceptable price set forth on the put notice, before the closing. In the event the Investor receives more than a five percent (5%) return on the net sales for a specific put, the Investor must remit such excess proceeds to the Company; however, in the event the Investor receives less than a five percent (5%) return on the net sales for a specific put, the Investor will have the right to use any such excess proceeds to off-set against the aggregated deficit proceeds.

 

There are put restrictions applied on days between the draw down notice date and the closing date with respect to that particular put. During such time, the Company shall not be entitled to deliver another draw down notice. In addition, the Investor will not be obligated to purchase shares if the Investor’s total number of shares beneficially held at that time would exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition, the Company is not permitted to draw on the facility unless there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the shares.

 

The Investment Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties of each of the parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made for purposes of the Investment Agreement and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Investment Agreement. The Investment Agreement further provides that the Company and the Investor are each entitled to customary indemnification from the other for, among other things, any losses or liabilities they may suffer as a result of any breach by the other party of any provisions of the Investment Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below). Investors should read the Investment Agreement together with the other information concerning the Company that the Company publicly files in reports and statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

 

 
 

 

Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement dated November 26, 2012 between the Company and the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), the Company is obligated to file one or more registrations statements with the SEC to register the resale by the Investor of the shares of common stock issued or issuable under the Investment Agreement. In addition, the Company is obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 90 days after the registration statement is filed.

 

In connection with the preparation of the Investment Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company paid the Investor a document preparation fee in the amount of $15,000.

 

The foregoing description of each of the Investment Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Investment Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, respectively, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Company issued a press release on November 27, 2012 regarding entry into the Investment Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
