On June 13, 2014, Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with a group of investors, including several healthcare-focused funds (the “Investors”) to effect a private placement (the “Offering”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.00005 par value per share (“Common Stock”), and warrants to purchase Common Stock. Upon the closing of the Offering, the Company will receive gross proceeds of approximately $10.5 million, resulting from the issuance and sale of approximately 42 million shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) at a price per share of $0.25, a 15% discount to the 30 day volume-weighted average price of $0.294. The Investors will also receive warrants to purchase up to approximately 42 million shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.348 per share (the “Warrants”). The Warrants are exercisable immediately upon closing of the private placement and have a term of three (3) years.

The Offering, which is expected to close on or about June 18, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), is subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement. In connection with the Offering, the Company will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) at closing pursuant to which the Company will file a resale registration statement for the Shares and Common Stock underlying the Warrants within 30 days of the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”) and have it declared effective at the earlier of (i) the 90^th calendar day after the Closing Date and (ii) the fifth business day after the date the Company is notified by the SEC that such Registration Statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). The Registration Rights Agreement contains penalties for failure to comply with the terms of the agreement, including monthly liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1.5% of the aggregate subscription amount for failure to meet the Effectiveness Deadline, up to a maximum of 12% of the aggregate subscription amount.

If at any time all of the shares of Common Stock or shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are not covered by the initial Registration Statement, the Company agrees to file with the SEC one or more additional Registration Statements so as to cover all of the shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants not covered by such initial Registration Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the applicable filing deadline for such additional Registration Statements as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Company intends to use the aggregate net proceeds of the Offering primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes, including the Company’s recently launched phase 2 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis clinical trial.

Maxim Group LLC acted as sole placement agent for the Offering (the “Placement Agent”). In connection with the Offering, the Company has agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 6.9% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, as well as fees and expenses of the Placement Agent of $35,000.  In addition, the Company will issue to the Placement Agent a 5-year warrant to purchase up to 1,260,000 shares of Common Stock (equal to 3% of the number of shares sold in the Offering), with an exercise price equal to $0.30 (120% of the offering price).

The Securities Purchase Agreement contains provisions that restrict the Company from issuing, except in certain cases, any Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents in the first 90 days following the closing of the Offering.

On June 13, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offering. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
