Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Securities Purchase Agreement
On September 16, 2013, OncoSec Medical Incorporated (the Company) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the Securities Purchase Agreement) with certain accredited investors (collectively, the Purchasers) providing for the issuance and sale by the Company to the Purchasers of an aggregate of 47,792,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock (collectively, the Shares) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 23,896,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock (collectively, the Warrants and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, collectively, the Warrant Shares) at a purchase price of $0.25 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $11.95 million (such transaction, the Offering). Net proceeds, after deducting the Placement Agent Fee (described below) and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are approximately $11.1 million. The Company consummated the Offering on September 18, 2013. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including clinical trial expenses and research and development expenses.
Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, at the closing each Purchaser was issued a Warrant to purchase up to a number of shares of the Companys Common Stock equal to 50% of the shares issued to such Purchaser. The Warrants have an exercise price of $0.35 per share, are exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise equal to four years from the date of issuance of the Warrants.
The securities sold pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act) pursuant to the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (No. 333-189516), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) on September 13, 2013, and the Shares and Warrants are being offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus dated September 13, 2013 and a final prospectus dated September 17, 2013. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any Shares or Warrants, nor shall there be any sale of the Shares or Warrants in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
The foregoing description of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each document. Copies of the Securities Purchase Agreement and Form of Common Stock Purchase Warrant are attached as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and each is incorporated herein by reference.
Placement Agent Warrants
Pursuant to a Placement Agent Agreement (the Placement Agent Agreement) dated August 16, 2013 by and between the Company and H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (Wainwright), Wainwright agreed to act as the Companys placement agent in connection with the Offering. Pursuant to the Placement Agent Agreement, the Company agreed to pay an aggregate cash fee for placement agent and financial advisory services equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering (the Placement Agent Fee), as well as a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 1% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. In addition, the Company agreed to issue warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 5% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering, or 2,389,600, to the placement agent or its designees (the Placement Agent Warrants). Under the Placement Agent Agreement, the Company may choose to pay up to 40% of the Placement Agent Fee and issue up to 40% of the Placement Agent Warrants directly to other broker-dealers acting as placement agents or financial advisors in the Offering. The Company has engaged Maxim Group LLC (Maxim) as financial advisor with respect to the Offering, and has paid 20% of the Placement Agent Fee and issued 20% of the Placement Agent Warrants to Maxim in consideration for Maxims financial advisory services.
As a result, the Company has (i) paid a Placement Agent Fee to Wainwright and Maxim equal to $573,504 and $143,376, respectively, and (ii) issued Placement Agent Warrants to purchase 1,911,680 shares and 477,920 shares to Wainwright and Maxim, respectively, or their designees. The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Warrants issued to the Purchasers, except that such warrants have an exercise price of $0.3125 per share and expire on September 13, 2018.
The Placement Agent Warrants and the shares of the Companys Common Stock underlying the Placement Agent Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act and have been issued in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(2) thereof. The Placement Agent Warrants and the shares of the Companys Common Stock underlying the Placement Agent Warrants may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from applicable registration requirements.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K under the heading Placement Agent Warrants is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02 in its entirety. The Placement Agent Warrants (including the shares of the Companys Common Stock underlying such warrants) were offered and sold to Wainwright and Maxim without registration under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. The Company is relying on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(2) thereof. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Placement Agent Warrants or the shares of the Companys Common Stock underlying the Placement Agent Warrants.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On September 19, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Offering. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference.
