Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.
As disclosed previously, Great Basin Scientific, Inc. (the “Company”) sold 2,724,000 units (“Units”) pursuant to a prospectus dated February 25, 2015 (the “Prospectus”) contained in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-201596) (the “Registration Statement”), as supplemented. Each Unit consisted of one share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock and eight Series C Warrants. Each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into four shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) at the option of the holder. The Series C Warrants may be exercised for cash at an exercise price of $2.55 or on a cashless basis pursuant to a formula disclosed in the Prospectus. In the event of a cashless exercise, the Company has the right to settle such an exercise through the issuance of shares of Common Stock or through a cash payment.
The Series E Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Warrants became convertible or exercisable, respectively, on August 25, 2015.
Since the date of our last report on December 29, 2015, we have issued shares of Common Stock pursuant to conversions of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock and cashless exercises of Series C Warrants. We did not receive any compensation for these conversions and cashless exercises. In each case, the conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock and the cashless exercise of Series C Warrants was conducted pursuant to the terms thereof as described in the Prospectus and the Registration Statement under the heading “Description of Capital Stock – Description of Securities We Are Offering” and were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) thereof. As the Series E Preferred Shares and the Series C Warrants which were exchanged for shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) were registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, the shares of Common Stock are not “restricted securities” as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
From December 29, 2015 through to the date of this report on December 30, 2015, 706,731 Series C Warrants were exercised via the cashless exercise provision in the warrant resulting in the issuance of 1,209,261 shares of Common Stock.
As of December 30, 2015 there are 10,106,906 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
As of December 30, 2015, there are 89,347 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding and 5,265,263 Series C Warrants outstanding.
