Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 15, 2013, S&W Seed Company (the "Company") announced that the warrant exercise period for its Class A warrants ("Class A Warrants"), which was to expire at 5:00 pm Pacific time on April 15, 2013, has been extended by ten business days to 5:00 pm Pacific time on April 29, 2013 (the "Redemption Time"). The Class A Warrants will cease trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market at the close of trading on April 15, 2013, despite extension of the exercise period.
The Company will provide a three day "protect" period after the Redemption Time to allow for settlement of exercised Class A Warrants after the Redemption Time. Accordingly, any Class A Warrants for which notice of guaranteed delivery is received prior to the Redemption Time shall be deemed exercised so long as the procedure for book-entry transfer via DWAC (or physical delivery of warrant certificates) is completed for the protected Class A Warrants and the funds required for exercise are received by S&W's Warrant Agent, Transfer Online, Inc., by 5:00 pm Pacific time on May 2, 2013. Any Class A Warrants not exercised by the registered holders will automatically expire on May 2, 2013, and S&W will thereafter remit to the registered holders of expired Class A Warrants the sum of $0.25 per warrant. After expiration, registered holders of expired Class A Warrants will have no rights or privileges other than to receive $0.25 per warrant. The common stock underlying the Class A Warrants is registered pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A copy of the press release issued by the Company with respect to the extension of the warrant exercise period is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
