Unit Option Results under the Unit Program

 

On September 26, 2018, the Company completed its previously announced Unit Option Program under Amendment No. 4. The Unit Option Program enabled participants to purchase Units of our securities where each Unit (priced at $250.00 each) was comprised of (i) a certain number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the per Unit price of $250.00 by the average of the high and low sale prices of the Company’s publicly traded common stock as reported on the NASDAQ on the date on which the Unit is purchased or the Unit Purchase Date under the Plan, and (ii) Common Stock purchase warrants to purchase an additional twenty-five (25) shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.00, which are exercisable through October 29, 2019.

 

The gross proceeds from the Unit Option Program of approximately $5.3 million will be used by the Company to further its production testing in the MJ #1 well and as otherwise provided in the Prospectus.
