Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities
On December 20, 2016, Rasna Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors, as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to which the Company sold the investors an aggregate of 3,366,667 shares of common stock common stock, par value $0.0001 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,020,000.
The securities sold in the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempt transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Each investor is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. This current report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall such securities be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.
