Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

On July 15, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Immune Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) approved and the Company issued a $350,000 Promissory Note to Monica Luchi, the Company’s Chief Medical Officer (the “Luchi Note”). Also on July 15, 2016, the Board approved the issuance of a $300,000 Promissory Note to Daniel Kazado, the Chairman of the Board (the “Kazado Note”). On June 24, 2016, the Board approved and the Company issued a $356,250 Promissory Note to Daniel G. Teper, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a director (the “Teper Note” and, together with the Luchi Note and the Kazado Note, the “Notes”).

 

Each Note bears interest at a rate of 5% per year and shall mature one year from the date of issue. The outstanding balance of each Note may be repaid in cash or, at the option of either party, converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate equal to the closing price of the common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on the date of Board approval of such Note. The Teper Note has a conversion rate of $0.38 per share, the Luchi and Kazado Notes have a conversion rate of $0.45 per share. The Notes may be prepaid without penalty. Each Promissory Note’s outstanding principal and interest must be repaid upon demand following a five day cure period upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy not dismissed within 30 days of filing, liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
