Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On May 31, 2013, MagneGas Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Northland Securities, Inc. (the “Underwriter”) relating to the public offering of 2,372,295 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 593,074 warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Each share of common stock sold in this offering will be sold with a warrant to purchase 0.25 of a share of common stock. Each share of common stock and related warrant will be sold at a combined price to the public of $0.90, for gross proceeds of $2,135,065.  The Company also granted the Underwriter an option to purchase up to an additional 355,844 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to an additional 88,961 shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, if any, within 45 days of the date of the final prospectus supplement.  The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the common stock and related warrants, after deducting the Underwriter’s discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are expected to be approximately $1,839,360. The offering is expected to close on or about June 5, 2013, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
 
The warrants to be issued in the offering are exercisable for a period of five years from the closing date of the offering at an exercise price of $1.35. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction. Holders of the warrants will not be permitted to exercise those warrants for an amount of common stock that would result in the holder owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s common stock. We will not be required to issue any fractional shares of our common stock upon the exercise of a warrant. Instead, the Company may elect to either pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the closing price of one warrant share on the date of exercise or have the number of shares of common stock exercised rounded up to the nearest whole number.
 
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement and the warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference to such Purchase Agreement and the form of warrant agreement and warrant certificate to be entered into between us and our transfer agent, as warrant agent, which are filed as Exhibits 1.1 and 4.1, respectively, hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. The legal opinion of Anslow & Jaclin, LLP relating to the securities being offered is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
 
The securities are being offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus dated May 28, 2013 and a preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 30, 2013, in connection with a takedown from the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-188661) declared effective by the SEC on May 28, 2013.
 
Item 8.01
Other Events.
 
On May 31, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the offering. A copy of the press release filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
