Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As
previously disclosed, on April 26, 2017, ChromaDex Corporation (the
“Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain purchasers
named therein (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the
Company agreed to sell and issue up to $25.0 million of its Common
Stock at a purchase price of $2.60 per share in three tranches of
approximately $3.5 million, $16.4 million and $5.1 million,
respectively.
On May 24, 2017, the Company and the Purchasers entered into a
First Amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “First
Amendment”) to provide for an allocation of the number of
shares each Purchaser may purchase in the second tranche under the
Purchase Agreement (the “Second Tranche”) and the third
tranche under the Purchase Agreement.
On May
24, 2017, the Second Tranche closed, pursuant to which the Company
issued 6,303,814 shares of its Common Stock to the Purchasers at a
purchase price of $2.60 per share.
The foregoing description of the First Amendment is not complete
and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of
the First Amendment, a copy of which is attached to this Current
Report as Exhibit 99.1. On May 25, 2017, the Company also issued a
press release announcing the closing of the Second Tranche. A copy
of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.2
hereto.
The
shares of the Company’s common stock sold pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement (the “Shares”) are not registered
under the Securities Act of the 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. The
Company has relied on the exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2)
thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. In connection with
the Purchasers’ execution of the Purchase Agreement, the
Purchasers represented to the Company that they are each an
“accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D of the
Securities Act and that the securities being purchased by them are
being acquired solely for their own account and for investment
purposes and not with a view to the future sale or
distribution.
