Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

The information contained in Item 3.02 below is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

On July 5, 2017, Aerkomm Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a subscription agreement with one investor, Daniel Shih, the founder and an affiliate of the Company (the “Investor”) who agreed to purchase an aggregate of 5,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a price per share of $5.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase of $27,500. The Shares were offered and sold by the Company in a private placement offering (the “Offering”) of up to a maximum of 461,819 shares ($2,540,004) of the Company’s common stock. The Company may accept additional subscriptions in the Offering through August 31, 2017.

The subscription agreement for the Offering provides that the Company will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission not later than ninety (90) days after the date of the final closing of the Offering a registration statement on an appropriate form covering the resale of the Shares. The Investor has agreed to waive these registration rights.

The sale of the Shares was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The Investor represented his intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof, and appropriate restrictive legends are being affixed to the certificate evidencing the Shares issued in the Offering. The Investor represented and warranted, among other things, that he is as “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, that that he has the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company, that he has the ability to bear the economic risks of the investment, and that he has adequate access to information about the Company.
