Item 1.01                                           Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On December 7, 2017, Fibrocell Science, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“HCW”), relating to the sale of 7,714,156 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), pre-funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,922,208 shares of Common Stock and common warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 13,636,364 shares of Common Stock (the “Offering”). Each share of Common Stock or pre-funded warrant, as applicable, was sold together with a common warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at a combined effective price to the public of $0.77 per share and accompanying common warrant.

 

The Company and HCW completed the Offering on December 11, 2017, resulting in approximately $9.3 million of net proceeds to the Company after deducting the underwriter’s discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for the continued clinical and pre-clinical development of its product candidates, FCX-007 and FCX-013, for the research of potential product candidates under its 2015 Exclusive Channel Collaboration Agreement with Intrexon Corporation and for other general corporate purposes.

 

The common warrants are exercisable immediately at an exercise price of $0.77 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable immediately at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and may be exercised until they are exercised in full. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants and pre-funded warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, among other events as described in the common warrants and pre-funded warrants. In the event of certain transactions involving a sale of the Company, each holder of common warrants has the right, exercisable at its option, to require the Company to purchase such holder’s common warrants at a price determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model as described in the common warrants. The shares of Common Stock or pre-funded warrants, as applicable, and the accompanying common warrants could only be purchased together in this Offering but were issued separately.

 

The Company has granted HCW a thirty day option, ending January 6, 2017, to purchase up to 2,045,454 additional shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.76 per share and/or common warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,045,454 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.01 per common warrant with an exercise price of $0.77 per share, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On December 1, 2017, HCW partially exercised this option by purchasing common warrants to purchase 410,586 shares of Common Stock, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $4,000.00.

 

HCW acted as sole book-running manager for the Offering, which was a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-221375) that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 6, 2017. The Offering was made only by means of a prospectus forming a part of the effective registration statement. The Company paid HCW a commission equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and other expenses, excluding the gross proceeds raised from sales of securities in the Offering to Randal J. Kirk, Intrexon Corporation, Third Security, LLC or any of their affiliates. As additional compensation, the Company has issued warrants to HCW to purchase 436,364 shares of Common Stock (the “Underwriter Warrants”).  The Underwriter Warrants will have an exercise price of $0.9625 per share, will be exercisable for five years from the date of the Underwriting Agreement and may be exercised on a cashless basis in certain circumstances specified therein.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements by the Company, and customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the underwriter, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock for a period of ninety (90) days following the Offering without the prior written consent of the Underwriter.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriter Warrants, the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement and the forms of the Underwriter Warrant, common warrant and pre-funded warrant, copies of which are filed as
