PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

 

SACKS PARENTE GOLF, INC.

 

4,794,520 Common Units, each consisting of one share of Common Stock, one Series A Warrant and one Series B Warrant and/or

 

4,794,520 Pre-Funded Units consisting of one Pre-Funded Warrant, one Series A Warrant and one Series B Warrant (and 4,794,520 shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants)

 

Up to 4,794,520 shares of Common Stock underlying the Series A Warrants

 

Up to 4,794,520 shares of Common Stock Underlying the Series B Warrants

 

This is a firm commitment public offering of 4,794,520 common units (“Common Units”) at an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) on December 9, 2024. Each Common Unit consists of (a) one share of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“common stock”), (b) one Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $[  ] per share (or 200% of the price of each Common Unit sold in the offering) which Warrant will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval (defined below) (the “Series A Warrants”), and (c) one Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $[  ] per share (or 200% of the price of each Common Unit sold in the offering) or pursuant to an alternative cashless exercise option, which Warrant will expire on the two and one-half-year anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval (the “Series B Warrants” and, together with the Series A Warrants, the “Common Warrants”).

 

Beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Series A Warrants will contain a reset of the exercise price to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the then exercise price and (ii) the lowest volume weighted average price (VWAP) for the five trading days immediately following the date we effect a reverse split with a proportionate adjustment to the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants (a “Reverse Split Reset”). Any such adjustment will be subject to a floor price (“the Floor Price”) calculated as follows: (a) prior to the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, 50% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price, and (b) after the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price. Nasdaq Minimum Price means the lower of the Nasdaq closing price or the average closing price for the five immediately preceding trading days, all as at the pricing of this offering. Additionally, with certain exceptions, beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Series A Warrants will provide for an adjustment to the exercise price and number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants ( the “Dilutive Adjustment”) upon our issuance of our common stock or common stock equivalents at any time after the closing of the offering, at a price per share that is less than the then-current exercise price of the Series A Warrants. Any Dilutive Adjustment will be subject to the Floor Price. Beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, in lieu of a cash exercise, the holder of the Series B Warrants has the right to elect to receive an aggregate number of shares of common stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series B Warrants and (y) 2.0. Also, the Series B Warrants will provide for a Reverse Split Reset subject to the Floor Price. Additionally, effective on the 11th trading day following the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the exercise price and the number of shares underlying the Common Warrants will be reset to the then-current lowest VWAP in the period commencing on the first trading day following the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval and ending the close of trading on the 10th trading day thereafter. Such reset will be subject to the Floor Price. With respect to all of the Common Warrants, with the consent of the holder, we may adjust the exercise price to such amount and for such time as may be agreed upon. None of the Common Warrants may be exercisable until the Warrant Stockholder Approval. Finally, until the three-month anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Company is prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalence involving a variable rate transaction (as defined in the applicable Warrant).

 

We have agreed to hold a stockholders meeting within 60 days after the closing of this offering (and every 60 days thereafter until approval of our stockholders has been obtained (“Warrant Stockholder Approval”) to approve the following matters: (i) exercisability of the Common Warrants, (ii) removal of clause (a) of the Floor Price definition, (iii) adjustment of the exercise price and number of Common Warrants pursuant to such adjustment, (iv) the Reverse Split Reset, (v) the Dilutive Adjustment, and (vi) the voluntary adjustment provisions. In the event that we are unable to obtain the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Common Warrants will not be exercisable, and therefore the Common Warrants will have no value. See the Risk Factor on page 16 relating to the Common Warrants and Warrant Stockholder Approval.

The public offering price per Common Unit will be determined between us and the underwriter based on market conditions at the time of pricing, and may be at a discount to the then current market price of our common stock. Therefore, the recent market price of our common stock referenced throughout this preliminary prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering price per Common Unit. The Common Units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certified or issued as stand-alone securities. The common stock or Pre-Funded Units (as defined below) and the Common Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately in this offering.

 

Our common stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “SPGC”. The closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 9, 2024 was $1.46 per share.

 

We are also offering to investors in Common Units that would otherwise result in the investor’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering the opportunity to purchase Prefunded Units in lieu of Common Units. Each Pre-Funded Unit consists of one pre-funded warrant (“Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase one share of our common stock, one Series A Warrant and one Series B Warrant. The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Unit is $1.459 (which is equal to the assumed public offering price per Common Unit minus $.001). Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of Pre-Funded Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Pre-Funded Warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, such limit may be increased to up to 9.99%) of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable (subject to the beneficial ownership cap) and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. For each Pre-Funded Unit purchased, the number of Units including a share of common stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. The Pre-Funded Units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities.

 

We have engaged Aegis Capital Corp. (the “underwriter” or “Aegis”), to act as our exclusive underwriter in connection with this offering.

 

There is no established trading market for the Pre-Funded Units, the Pre-Funded Warrants or the Common Warrants and we do not expect an active trading market to develop. We do not intend to list the Pre-Funded Warrants or the Common Warrants on any securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of these securities will be limited.

 

Investing in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors beginning on page 16 of this prospectus before purchasing our securities.

 

We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Overview

 

We are a technology-forward golf company, with a growing portfolio of golf products, including putting instruments, golf shafts, golf grips, and other golf-related products. In consideration of its growth opportunities in shaft technologies, in April of 2022, we expanded our manufacturing business to include advanced premium golf shafts by opening a new shaft manufacturing facility in St. Joseph, MO. It is our intent to manufacture and assemble substantially all products in the United States as is economically feasible. We anticipate expansion into golf apparel and other golf-related product lines to enhance its growth. Our future expansions may include broadening its offerings through mergers, acquisitions or internal developments of product lines that are complementary to its premium brand.

 

We currently sell our products through our websites, resellers, and distributors in the United States, Japan, and South Korea.

Historical Development

 

We were formed in 2018 as Sacks Parente Golf Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. On March 18, 2022 we converted into a Delaware corporation named Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. Pursuant to our Plan of Conversion, on March 18, 2022, all of the outstanding ownership interests in Sacks Parente Golf Company, LLC, and rights to receive such interest were converted into and exchanged for shares of capital stock of Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. We retroactively reflected the conversion as of the earliest periods presented herein.

 

On August 17, 2023, we closed its initial public offering pursuant to which we sold 320,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $40.00 per share. We received total proceeds, net of fees, of $11,029,000.

 

On October 8, 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Aegis relating to the sale of up to 366,000 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $2 per share. The offering closed on October 10, 2024. The net proceeds to us for the offering were approximately $536,000, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.

 

Going Concern

 

As reflected in our financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2023 and the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a net loss of $4,625,000 and $3,408,000, respectively, and used cash in operations for such periods of $5,047,000 and $3,431,000, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the financial statements being issued. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds and implement our business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

 

At September 30, 2024, we had cash on hand in the amount of $1,313,000. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until it begins generating positive cash flow. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case or equity financing.

 

Industry Overview

 

The golf equipment market size is estimated at USD 13.32 billion in 2023, and is expected to reach USD 17.64 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 5.78% during the forecast period (2023-2028).

 

In recent years, there has been an increase in young golfers, causing equipment sales to rise. It is one of the significant factors driving golf equipment sales. The growing middle-class income and the increasing number of professional golfers over the last few years are contributing to the substantial increase in demand. The participation rate in pro-golf tournaments is increasing, especially among millennials, further boosting golf equipment sales worldwide. Based on a survey by the National Golf Foundation in 2021, golf is now played in 206 out of the 251 countries. There are around 38,000 golf courses in over 82% of countries worldwide. Globally, millions of people of all ages are attracted to golf, participating in the International Golf Federation’s programs and events. Including golf in the Olympic Games has contributed to a sudden increase in golfers worldwide. The market is highly impacted by product innovations carried out by key players and considerable investments in marketing and promotional activities to reach a broad customer base. With the substantial growth of the golf tourism industry, the market is anticipated to have a positive outlook in the coming years. European countries are investing heavily in Infrastructural developments of the game and hosting many international golf events and competitions. For instance, in October 2022, several golf courses in Portugal invested heavily in improvements, with some new courses opening and others being upgraded. Such investments in golf courses are further anticipated to boost the inflow of sports tourists and influence the market positively during the study period.

Rise in Demand for Golf Equipment from Asia-Pacific

 

The Asia-Pacific golf equipment market is driven by the rising popularity of golf in Japan, China, South Korea, and Thailand, among other countries. There has been phenomenal growth in the Asia-Pacific golf industry. During the next few years, the golf clothing and equipment market in the Asia-Pacific region is expected to grow, with major countries such as China, India, Australia, and Japan contributing to the market growth. Japan is one of the major countries in the Asia-Pacific region in terms of the number of golf players, owing to the rising awareness about golf and an increase in the golfer population in the country. According to the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI), the golfing population in Japan increased from 8.93 million in 2018 to approximately 10.3 million in 2021. As the population becomes more aware of sports and the disposable income of individuals rises, there is a strong likelihood that the regional market will continue to grow. In addition to already established international brands, the market in the region is being driven by a rise in the participation of gold tournaments and spending money and time on sports activities. Increasing media exposure to international golf events has aided the rise in the popularity of golf among the masses. This trend encourages the youth to play such sports, further boosting the sales of golf equipment in the region.

Markets

 

Our products are sold in the Americas, Asia and Europe. We sell our golf equipment products in the United States and internationally, directly via e-commerce, through distribution or subsidiaries, to wholesale customers, including pro-shops at golf courses and off-course retailers, sporting goods retailers, on-line retailers, third-party distributors, and through Club Champion Golf, the international leader in golf club fitting with strategic locations across the U.S. and internationally. We sell certain products to mass merchants, as well as directly to consumers through retail locations in Japan and have recently begun selling products in South Korea. We offer custom fitting programs online to help consumers find the best fit for their personal specifications. In addition, we sell to corporate customers who want certain customizations of our golf equipment.

 

Advertising and Marketing

 

Our marketing campaigns in connection with the SPG brand are aimed to increase consumer awareness of the products and support our overall growth strategy. We will focus our advertising efforts mainly on television commercials, primarily on The Golf Channel and web-based digital, social media advertising, and printed advertisements in national magazines, such as Golf Magazine and Golf Digest, as well as in-store advertising. We also establish relationships with professional athletes and personalities, including members of various professional golf tours as well as other athletes and personalities, in order to promote our golf equipment product lines.

 

Distribution

 

Our manufacturing, assembly, warehousing and distribution center is in St. Joseph, MO, with putter head assembly performed at our headquarters and research and development facility in Camarillo, CA. In 2023, we began manufacturing putter and replacement shafts using our proprietary mandrels and wrapping technology. In 2024, we expanded our shaft offerings into fairway wood replacement shafts. In addition, we plan to grow distribution centers in or near Tokyo, Japan, Seoul, South Korea, Mexico City and other prominent cities based on the needs of these markets.

 

Production Process

 

In January 2024, we relocated our primary golf putting instrument assembly facility from Camarillo, CA to our St. Joseph, MO facility. It is our ongoing goal to develop, design and manufacture as many of the company’s products, as is economically feasible in the U.S. We currently have limited assembly/fitting capabilities in Japan and South Korea. Overall, the golf club assembly process is fairly labor intensive, requires extensive supply chain coordination and utilizes raw materials that are obtained from suppliers both internationally and within the United States.

Raw Material and Suppliers

 

Our golf putters raw material consist of a fairly wide variety of steel and aluminum types, along with other metals like tungsten, magnesium, and titanium. Our shafts consist of carbon fiber and prepreg materials along with coatings, paintings, inks and other decorative materials. The suppliers of these raw materials are located in the U.S., Japan, South Korea, and other countries around the world. We rely on third-party suppliers to provide our raw materials and CNC machine certain parts. Our putters are currently assembled from components produced in the U.S., Taiwan, China, Japan and South Korea. Our shafts are manufactured in-house from materials produced in the U.S. by third parties. We note that some components or materials may be available only from a limited number of sources. We choose not to enter into long-term contracts with any of our suppliers or manufacturers for the production and supply of our raw materials and components, and typically transact business with our suppliers on an order-by-order basis. We also compete with other companies for raw materials and production.

 

We currently source the vast majority of our grip products from third-party suppliers in the U.S. and China, and we source some CNC milled products from the U.S. and Taiwan. However, we are already producing products, shafts and putter heads in the US, and plan to manufacture as many components in the U.S. as is economically feasible. We have worked with a limited number of manufacturing partners that produced components in facilities located in Southeast Asia and could do so again. We continuously work to diversify our sourcing and manufacturing capabilities.

 

Anytime a company has limited sources for materials or suppliers, there is significant risk, and we are no different. If we are unable to acquire raw materials such as carbon fiber, it may take significant time to educate an alternate supplier with the specific engineering and manufacturing requirements of our materials or designs. If we were unable to secure a reliable supplier for any component or material that we do not manufacture ourselves and find that replacement in a timely manner, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We have experienced supply issues as a result of the U.S. Government blocking all imports from Myanmar, and our source for carbon fiber shafts was instantly eliminated. With no supplier for shafts this materially impacted our ability to deliver product and grow channels of distribution. However, our management adapted and within 12 months overcame these issues by opening our own shaft manufacturing facility in St. Joseph, MO.

 

Product Portfolio Characteristics

 

We design our golf products to fit golfers of all skill levels, amateur and professional, and our products are designed with the goal of conforming to the Rules of Golf as published by the United States Golf Association (“USGA”) and the ruling authority (“The R&A”).

 

We live by the statement “Physics not Gimmicks” and as a result, we believe that we have created game changing innovations like our patented Ultra-Low Balance Point technologies that we believe make any putter a better putter. Ultra-Low Balance Point is a balance point on the shaft that is five (5) inches or less from the sole of the putter. The Company achieves this, not by making the putter head heavier like some companies have done, but by making the putter shaft and grip feather light. An ULBP putter has substantially more of the relative weight at the putter head which makes the putter head feel a lot heavier than it really is. The result, supported by independent testing, is a putter that promotes a natural pendulum like tempo, natural squaring of the head at impact and a natural release of the toe of the putter head, all of which can help contribute to better putting performance.

 

By investing in research and development and leveraging applied science and physics, we design golf equipment and products to be technologically superior by breaking the “sea of sameness” that exists in golf today. We have the ability to create and modify product designs using computer aided design software, finite element analysis software and structural optimization techniques. Further, we utilize a variety of robotics and testing equipment, along with computer software, including launch monitors, an in-house laboratory and test center for our golf equipment products.

 

We manage our global business operations through our operating and reportable business segments. Our business segments currently include, golf putting instruments, golf shafts, and golf related products.

 

SPG Putters

 

Our putter products include golf putters, shafts and grips sold under our SPG brand and are generally made of steel, aluminum, titanium alloys, carbon fiber, tungsten, our patented magnesium face plate technologies, and various other materials.

 

8
 

 

Our putter technology has been shown by The Golf Lab, a Canadian golf research and education provider, to improve players’ ability to make putts, feel of the putter head, stroke, face angle at impact, and distance control. Our management believes that our proprietary shaft designs can enhance the performance of players’ putters as well as drivers and other golf clubs. Further, our management believes that these innovative designs, along with our proprietary manufacturing techniques, create performance improvements over traditional golf shafts.

 

We launched a new line of premium putters under the Gravity brand in October 2024. Management believes that our versions of these models, while having a familiar shape, could out-perform other versions in the industry because of our design and use of advanced metals.

 

Newton Shafts

 

On November 20, 2023, we announced a significant expansion of our product portfolio. We introduced “Newton,” the Company’s latest business division and the Company’s first foray into the world of golf club shafts. The Newton Motion driver shaft, the first Newton shaft to debut in the market, is a carbon fiber shaft designed to enhance a golfer’s performance by promoting straighter and longer shots with reduced effort. Using the Company’s proprietary shaft design and construction, the Newton Motion shaft features four essential technologies:

 

  Elongated Bend Profile – SPG has created an extreme elongated bend profile that is central to the shaft’s design. Because of SPG’s proprietary Kinetic Storage Construction, the shaft will bend over a longer span of its length, resulting in improved club speed. The added flexibility of the carbon fiber gives the impression that the golfer doesn’t need to exert excessive force during the swing, leading to a more predictable and less jarring experience. This, in turn, enhances the smoothness of the swing.
     
  Kinetic Storage Construction – The kinetic storage profile is the engine of Newton’s Motion Driver Shaft. This proprietary construction empowers the fibers to store more energy that is harnessed through elongated bend, resulting in a significant boost in exit velocity. In contrast to most carbon fiber shafts, SPG’s technology ensures perfect symmetry, eliminating the inconsistencies in flex and spin rates that can often lead to decreased accuracy and distance.
     
  Newton Symmetry360 Design – SPG’s Newton Symmetry360 design ensures consistent flex, regardless of the driver’s clocking position. This stand-out feature allows for seamless adjustments to both the bend and torque (twist) when most flex changes occur, providing a truly versatile and adaptive solution.

 

  Variable Bend Profile – The Newton Motion driver shaft is equipped with a variable elongated bend profile meticulously designed to match the bend and torque requirements of each flex. This innovation ensures that every player’s driving performance is optimized, adapting seamlessly to the unique demands of the swing. Golfers with slower swing speeds need more torque while higher swing speeds need the opposite. Whether a slow or high swing speed, the Newton Motion technology tailors to the torque.

 

In addition to the four aforementioned technologies, instead of using the traditional categorization of shaft flexes of ladies, senior, regular, stiff, extra-shift, etc., the Newton Motion shaft uses a DOT system. Ranging from one to six dots, the system allows for a seamless transition from the most flexible shaft at one dot to the stiffest at six dots. SPG’s innovative DOT system, employed by SPG’s expert shaft engineers, optimizes golf shaft performance by fine-tuning it to golfer’s unique abilities, leaving traditional flex systems in the past.

 

The Newton Motion shaft is visually captivating. When in motion, the shaft undergoes a mesmerizing color transformation from green to purple and various shades in between. The coloration not only adds a dash of style to a golfer’s game, but it also distinguishes itself from other shafts in the market.

 

The Newton shafts are manufactured in St. Joseph, Missouri, SPG’s shaft manufacturing facility.

 

Soft Goods

 

In addition to our existing products, we intend in the future to sell high quality soft goods such as golf apparel and golf accessories including golf bags, gloves, headwear, practice aids and more. We are in the early stages of planning our soft goods business and do not anticipate that we will begin manufacturing or selling soft goods until 2025.

Implications of Being an “Emerging Growth Company”

 

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we have elected to take advantage of reduced reporting requirements and are relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. As an emerging growth company:

 

  we may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;
     
  we are exempt from the requirement to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on whether we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
     
  we are permitted to provide less extensive disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and
     
  we are not required to give our stockholders non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

 

We may take advantage of these provisions until December 31, 2027 (the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering) if we continue to be an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue, have more than $700 million in market value of our shares held by non-affiliates or issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reduced burdens. We have elected to provide two years of audited financial statements. Additionally, we have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act.

THE OFFERING

 

Issuer:   Sacks Parente Golf, Inc.
     
Securities offered by us:  

4,794,520 Common Units, each Common Unit consisting of one share of our common stock, one Series A Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock and one Series B Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock.

 

We are also offering to investors in Common Units that would otherwise result in the investor’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering the opportunity to purchase Prefunded Units in lieu of Common Units. Each Pre-Funded Unit consists of one pre-funded warrant (“Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase one share of our common stock, one Series A Warrant and one Series B Warrant. The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Unit is $1.459 (which is equal to the assumed public offering price per Common Unit minus $0.001). Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of Pre-Funded Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Pre-Funded Warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, such limit may be increased to up to 9.99%) of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable (subject to the beneficial ownership cap) and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. For each Pre-Funded Unit purchased, the number of Units including a share of common stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. The Pre-Funded Units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities.

 

The Common Units will not be certificated or issued in stand-alone form. The shares of our common stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants) and the Common Warrants comprising the Common Units are immediately separable upon issuance and will be issued separately in this offering.

 

13
 

 

Over-Allotment Option   The offering is being underwritten on a firm commitment basis. We have granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to 719,178 additional shares of common stock, representing 15% of the Common Units sold in the offering (at an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024 and/or up to 719,178 additional Pre-Funded Warrants, representing 15% of the Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the offering, and/or up to 719,178 additional Series A Warrants, representing 15% of the Series A Warrants sold in the offering, and/or up to 719,178 additional Series B Warrants, representing 15% of the Series B Warrants sold in the offering, on the same terms and conditions set forth above solely to cover over-allotments. The underwriter may exercise the over-allotment option with respect to shares of common stock only, Pre-Funded Warrants only, Series A Warrants only, Series B Warrants only, or any combination thereof.
     
Assumed public offering price:   $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 9, 2024.
     
Common stock outstanding immediately prior to this offering:   1,825,587 shares of common stock.
     
Common stock to be outstanding immediately after this offering:   6,620,107 shares(1) of common stock (or 7,339285 shares of common stock if the over-allotment option is exercised in full) assuming no issuance of Pre-Funded Units, and no exercise of the any of the Common Stock Warrants issued in this offering).

 

Use of proceeds:    We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes. See “Use of Proceeds”.
     
Description of Common Warrants:  

Series A Warrants

 

Each Series A Warrant will have an exercise price of $[  ] per share (or 200% of the price of each Common Unit) and will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval. Beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Series A Warrants will contain a reset of the exercise price to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the then exercise price and (ii) the lowest volume weighted average price (VWAP) for the five trading days immediately following the date we effect a reverse split with a proportionate adjustment to the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants (a “Reverse Split Reset”). Any such adjustment will be subject to a floor price (“the Floor Price”) calculated as follows: (a) prior to the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, 50% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price, and (b) after the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price. Nasdaq Minimum Price means the lower of the Nasdaq closing price or the average closing price for the five immediately preceding trading days, all as at the pricing of this offering. Additionally, with certain exceptions, beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Series A Warrants will provide for an adjustment to the exercise price and number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants (the “Dilutive Adjustment”) upon our issuance of our common stock or common stock equivalents at any time after the closing of the offering, at a price per share that is less than the then-current exercise price of the Series A Warrants. Any Dilutive Adjustment will be subject to the Floor Price. The Series A Warrants may not be exercised until Warrant Stockholder Approval.

 

14
 

 

 

Series B Warrants

 

Each Series B Warrant will have an exercise price of $[  ] per share (or 200% of the price of each Common Unit or pursuant to an alternative cashless exercise option). The Series B Warrant will expire on the 2 and one-half year anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval. Beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the holders of the Series B Warrants have the right to receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series B Warrants and (y) 2.0. Also, the Series B Warrants will provide for a Reverse Split Reset subject to the Floor Price. The Series B Warrants may not be exercised until the Warrant Stockholder Approval.

 

Reset and Adjustment of the Exercise Price of the Common Warrants; Blocker provisions

 

Effective on the 11th trading day following the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the exercise price and the number of shares underlying the Common Warrants will be reset to the then-current lowest VWAP in the period commencing on the first trading day following the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval and ending the close of trading on the tenth trading day thereafter. Such reset will be subject to the Floor Price. With respect to all of the Common Warrants, with the consent of the holder, we may adjust the exercise price to such amount and for such time as may be agreed upon.

 

Each holder of Common Warrants will be prohibited from exercising its Common Warrant for shares of our common stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of our common stock then issued and outstanding. However, any holder may increase such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%. The Common Warrants will be issued in certificated form.

 

This offering also relates to the offering of the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Common Warrants. For more information regarding the Common Warrants, you should carefully read the section titled “Description of Securities We Are Offering — Common Warrants” in this prospectus.

Transfer agent, Common Warrant agent and registrar:   The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is VStock Transfer, LLC.
     
Risk factors:   The securities offered by this prospectus are speculative and involve a high degree of risk. Investors purchasing securities should not purchase the securities unless they can afford the loss of their entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 16.

 

(1) The number of shares of our common stock to be outstanding following this offering is based on 1,825,587 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2024 and excludes:

 

15
 

 

291,160 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of common stock options issued to members of management, consultants, and directors at a weighted average exercise price of $8.07 per share; and
Up to 4,754,520 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants based on an assumed offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024; and
Up to 9,589,040 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants, assuming the Series B Warrants are exercised utilizing the alternative cashless exercise option based on an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, this prospectus also assumes that no Pre-Funded Units are issued and no exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option to purchase additional shares.

 

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock and Common Warrants is highly speculative and involves a significant degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties as well as the risks and uncertainties described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as well as in our subsequent Quarterly Reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which filings are incorporated in this prospectus by reference in their entirety, as well as in any prospectus supplement hereto. These risk factors could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our business faces significant risks and the risks described below or incorporated by reference herein may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may materially affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition. If any of these risks occur, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of our Securities

 

The Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants (which are exercisable for common stock) sold in this offering will more than 3.5 the number of our shares of common stock from approximately 1,825,587 shares to 6,620,107 shares. If all the Common Warrants sold in this offering are exercised (assuming the Series B Warrants are exercised on an alternative cashless exercise basis), the number of our shares of common stock will increase by an additional 14,383,610 shares. The sales of these securities could depress the market price of our shares of common stock and/or increase the volatility of our trading.

 

A substantial number of shares of common stock, Pre-Funded Warrants, and Common Warrants are being offered by this prospectus. Sales of a substantial number of our shares of common stock in the public markets pursuant to the terms of this offering could depress the market price of our shares of common stock and impair our ability to raise capital to the sale of additional equity securities. Additionally, such sales could also greatly increase the volatility associated with the trading of our common stock. We cannot predict the number of the shares that might be sold, nor the effect future sales of shares would have on the market price of our shares.

 

If we fail to satisfy all applicable continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, our common stock may be de-listed from Nasdaq, which could have an adverse impact on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other listing requirements and standards, including, in particular, the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the applicable listing requirements. In such event, trading of our common stock could be conducted only in the over-the-counter market. In such an event, it could be more difficult to dispose of our common stock, and there would likely also be a reduction in coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline further. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a major exchange.

 

16
 

 

We will likely not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants.

 

The Series B Warrants may be exercised by way of an alternative cashless exercise, meaning that the holder may not pay a cash purchase price upon exercise, but instead would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of our common stock according to the formula set forth in the applicable Series B Warrant. Accordingly, we will likely not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants.

 

Exercise of the Common Warrants will not be available until we receive stockholder approval.

 

The provisions of the Common Warrants require that Warrant Stockholder Approval be obtained in order for the Common Warrants to be exercised. If we are unable to obtain Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Common Warrants will essentially be of no value.

 

Investors in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of their investment.

 

The public offering price will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, investors in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $0.07 per share based on the assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Unit. Investors in this offering will pay a price per Unit that substantially exceeds the book value of our assets after subtracting our liabilities. See “Dilution” for a more complete description of how the value of your investment will be diluted upon the completion of this offering.

 

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the proceeds we receive in this offering and might not apply the proceeds in ways that increase the value of your investment.

 

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of our net proceeds from this offering, and you will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of these proceeds. Our management might not apply our net proceeds in ways that ultimately increase the value of your investment. We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

We have a history of losses, expect to continue to incur losses in the near term and may not achieve or sustain profitability in the future, and as a result, our management has identified, and our auditors agreed that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We have incurred significant losses since our inception. We experienced net losses of $4,625,000 and $3,505,000 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $3,408,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. We expect our operating losses will continue, or even increase, at least through the near term. You should not rely upon our past results as indicative of future performance. We will not reach profitability in the near future or at any specific time in the future.

 

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, holders of our securities might lose their entire investment.

 

17
 

 

We may have to seek to raise additional funds to fund our operations and implement our business plan. Depending on the terms available to us, if these activities result in significant dilution, it may negatively impact the trading price of our common stock.

 

Any additional financing that we secure may require the granting of rights, preferences or privileges senior to, or pari passu with, those of our common stock. Any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price of our common stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. We may also raise additional funds through the incurrence of debt or the issuance or sale of other securities or instruments senior to our shares of common stock, which may be highly dilutive. The holders of any securities or instruments we may issue may have rights superior to the rights of our common stockholders. If we experience dilution from the issuance of additional securities and we grant superior rights to new securities over holders of our common stock, it may negatively impact the trading price of our common stock and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

The Common Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants are speculative in nature and there is not expected to be an active trading market for the Common Warrants.

 

There is no established trading market for the Common Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants and we do not expect an active trading market to develop. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Common Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants will be limited.

 

Holders of the Common Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants will have no rights as a common stockholder until they acquire our common stock.

 

The Common Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants offered in this offering do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the Common Warrants may exercise their right to acquire the common stock and pay an exercise price of $[*] per share (200% of the public offering price of a Unit, subject to adjustment), prior to five years from the date of issuance, after which date any unexercised Common Warrants will expire and have no further value. In the case of Pre-Funded Warrants, holders may exercise their right to acquire the common stock and pay an exercise price of $0.001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants do not expire. Until holders of the Common Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants acquire shares of our common stock upon exercise of the Common Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants, the holders will have no rights with respect to shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Common Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants. Upon exercise of the Common Warrants or Pre-Funded Warrants, the holder will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder as to the security exercised only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise.

 

Provisions of the Common Warrants could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.

 

Certain provisions of the Common Warrants could make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire us. The Common Warrants prohibit us from engaging in certain transactions constituting “fundamental transactions” unless, among other things, the surviving entity assumes our obligations under the Common Warrants. These and other provisions of the Common Warrants offered by this prospectus could prevent or deter a third party from acquiring us even where the acquisition could be beneficial to you.

 

A possible “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand of our shares of common stock that largely exceeds supply may lead to price volatility in our shares of common stock.

 

Following this offering, investors may purchase our shares of common stock to hedge existing exposure in our shares of common stock or to speculate on the price of our shares of common stock. Speculation on the price of our shares of common stock may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our common stock available for purchase in the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase our shares of common stock for delivery to lenders of our shares of common stock. Those repurchases may in turn, dramatically increase the price of our shares of common stock until investors with short exposure are able to purchase additional common shares to cover their short position. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze”. A short squeeze could lead to volatile price movements in our shares of common stock that are not directly correlated to the performance or prospects of our company and once investors purchase the shares of common stock necessary to cover their short position the price of our common stock may decline.

An active, liquid and orderly trading market for our common stock may not develop, the price of our stock may be volatile, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

 

Even though our common stock is currently listed on Nasdaq, we cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in our company will lead to the development of an active trading market in our securities or how liquid that market might become. If such a market does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult for you to sell your shares of common stock at the time you wish to sell them, at a price that is attractive to you, or at all. There could be extreme fluctuations in the price of our common stock if there are a limited number of shares in our public float.

 

The trading price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Our stock price could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, which include:

 

  whether we achieve our anticipated corporate objectives;
  actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;
  changes in our financial or operational estimates;
  our ability to implement our operational plans;
  changes in the economic performance or market valuations of companies similar to ours; and
  general economic or political conditions in the United States or elsewhere.

 

In addition, broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. These fluctuations may be even more pronounced in the trading market for our stock shortly following this offering. In the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. This litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.

 

This offering may cause the trading price of our common stock to decrease.

 

The number of shares of common stock underlying the securities we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the trading price of our common stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering. If the bid price of our common stock falls below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, we would no longer meet Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement and our common stock could be subject to delisting. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that the availability of shares for future sale represented by the Pre-Funded Warrants or Common Warrants issued in connection with the offering will have on the trading price of our common stock from time to time.

 

If our shares of common stock become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on Nasdaq and if the price of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

 

19
 

 

If we were to dissolve, the holders of our securities may lose all or substantial amounts of their investments.

 

If we were to dissolve as a corporation, as part of ceasing to do business or otherwise, we will be required to pay all amounts owed to any creditors before distributing any assets to holders of our capital stock. There is a risk that in the event of such a dissolution, there will be insufficient funds to repay amounts owed to holders of any of our indebtedness and insufficient assets to distribute to our capital stockholders, in which case investors could lose their entire investment.

 

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our securities adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

 

The trading market for our common stock is influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

 

In making your investment decision, you should understand that we and the underwriter have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering.

 

You should carefully evaluate all of the information in this prospectus before investing in our company. We may receive media coverage regarding our company, including coverage that is not directly attributable to statements made by our officers, that incorrectly reports on statements made by our officers or employees, or that is misleading as a result of omitting information provided by us, our officers or employees. We and the underwriter have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering, and you should not rely on unauthorized information in making an investment decision.

21
 

 

Any difficulties from strategic acquisitions or strategic partnerships we pursue or consummate could adversely affect business, financial condition and our results of operations.

Cyber-attacks, unauthorized access to, or accidental disclosure of, consumer personally-identifiable information, that we or our vendors collect through our websites or stores on servers may result in significant expense and negatively impact our reputation and business.

 

Risks Related to Governmental Regulations

We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this prospectus. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in “Risk Factors”. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this prospectus may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

 

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this prospectus to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

 

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed with the SEC as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $6,100,000 (or approximately $7,066,000 if the over-allotment option is exercised in full) after deducting underwriter discounts and commissions, and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the cash exercise of the Common Warrants.

 

We will only receive additional proceeds from the exercise of the Common Warrants if the Common Warrants are exercised and the holders of such Warrants pay the exercise price in cash. The Series B Warrants may be exercised by way of an alternative cashless exercise, meaning that the holder may not pay a cash purchase price upon exercise. Accordingly, it is likely that we will not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants.

 

We currently intend to use the net proceeds of this offering as working capital and for general corporate purposes.

 

The actual allocation of proceeds realized from this offering will depend upon our cash position and our working capital requirements. We cannot currently allocate specific percentages of the net proceeds to us from this offering that we may use for these purposes. Therefore, as of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion of this offering. Accordingly, we will have discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on our judgment regarding the application of the proceeds of this offering. Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

CAPITALIZATION

 

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of September 30, 2024 as follows:

 

  on an actual basis; and
  on an as adjusted basis to reflect the issuance of 366,000 common shares issued on October 10, 2024, for net proceeds of $536,000; and
  on an as adjusted basis to reflect the issuance and sale by us of 4,794,520 Common Units in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit (assuming no issuance of Pre-Funded Warrants), after deducting underwriter fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us and the receipt by us of the proceeds of such sale.

 

The information below is illustrative only. Our capitalization following the closing of this offering will change based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. You should read this table in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024, and subsequent Exchange Act reports.

Stockholders’ equity:          
Preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, 5,000,000 shares authorized, no shares issued and outstanding  $   $ 
Common stock, $0.01 par value per share; 45,000,000 shares authorized, 1,459,587 shares issued and outstanding; 6,620,107 shares issued and outstanding as adjusted (unaudited)   $15,000     66,000

Total stockholders’ equity   2,638,000     9,180,000  
Total capitalization  $ 2,638,000    $ 9,180,000  

 

The number of shares of our common stock outstanding set forth in the table above excludes, as of September 30, 2024:

 

291,160 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of common stock options issued to members of management, consultants, and directors at a weighted average exercise price of $8.07 per share; and
Up to 4,754,520 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants based on an assumed offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024; and
Up to 9,589,040 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants, assuming the Series B Warrants are exercised utilizing the alternative cashless exercise option based on an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024.

 

DILUTION

 

If you invest in our Common Units in this offering, your investment will be immediately and substantially diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our common stock that is part of the Common Unit and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after giving effect to the offering.

 

25
 

 

Our net tangible book value (deficit) as of September 30, 2024 was $2,638,000, or $1.81 per share. Net tangible book value per share represents our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding.

 

As adjusted net tangible book value dilution per share of common stock to new investors represents the difference between the amount per share of common stock that is part of the Common Unit paid by investors in the offering and the net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after completion of the offering. After giving effect to the offering and our sale of the Common Units in the offering at an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, and after deduction of underwriter fees from gross proceeds raised in the offering and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and after giving effect to the issuance of 366,000 common shares with net proceeds of $536,000, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024 would have been $9,180,000 or $1.39 per share of common stock. This represents an immediate decrease in net tangible book value of $0.42 per share of common stock to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $0.07 per share of common stock to investors in the offering, as illustrated in the following table, based on common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2024.

 

The information below is illustrative only and assumes the maximum offering amount is sold. The dilution caused by this offering will change based on the actual public offering amount and price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. You should read this table in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024, and subsequent Exchange Act reports.

 

Assumed offering price per share of common stock (attributing no value to Common Warrants)       $ 1.46  
Actual net tangible book value per share of common stock before this offering(1)  $ 1.81       
Decrease in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors(2)  $ (0.42 )         
Net tangible book value per share after this offering(3)       $ 1.39  
Immediate dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors       $ (0.07 )

 

(1) Determined by dividing (i) net tangible book value (total assets less intangible assets) less total liabilities by (ii) the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding prior to the offering.
(2) Represents the difference between (i) as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering and (ii) net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2024.
(3) Determined by dividing (i) as adjusted net tangible book value, which is our net tangible book value plus the cash proceeds of this offering, after deducting the estimated offering expenses payable by us, by (ii) the total number of shares of common stock to be outstanding following this offering.

 

If the underwriter exercises its option to purchase an additional 719,178 Common Units in full, our as adjusted net tangible book value after giving effect to this offering, would have been approximately $1.39 per share, representing no increase or decrease in net tangible book value per share to existing stockholders and immediate dilution in net tangible book value of approximately $0.42 per share to new investors purchasing shares in this offering.

 

The information discussed above is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual public offering price, the actual number of Units that we offer in this offering, and other terms of this offering determined at the time of pricing. The foregoing discussion and table assume no issuance of Pre-Funded Warrants, which if sold, would reduce the number of Units that we are offering on a one-for-one basis. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

The number of shares of our common stock outstanding set forth in the table above excludes, as of September 30, 2024:

 

291,160 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of common stock options issued to members of management, consultants, and directors at a weighted average exercise price of $8.07 per share; and
Up to 4,754,520 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants based on an assumed offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024; and
Up to 9,589,040 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants, assuming the Series B Warrants are exercised utilizing the alternative cashless exercise option based on an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

The following is a summary description of the Common Stock, which does not purport to be complete and is summarized from, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Certificate of Incorporation, and Bylaws, to which you should refer and copies of which are incorporated herein by reference as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively. The summary below is also qualified by provisions of applicable law, including the Delaware General Corporation Law.

 

Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue up to a total of 45,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Holders of our common stock have no cumulative voting rights.

 

Further, holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, holders of our common stock are entitled to share in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities and the liquidation preferences of any of our outstanding shares of preferred stock. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of our assets which are legally available. Each outstanding share of our common stock is, and all shares of common stock to be issued in this offering when they are paid for, will be fully paid and non-assessable.

 

The holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting. Except in regards to proposals that require the approval of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares, if a quorum is present, an action by stockholders entitled to vote on a matter is approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, with the exception of the election of directors, which requires a plurality of the votes cast.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the designations, powers, preferences, privileges, and relative participating, optional, or special rights as well as the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions of the preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of the common stock. Our board of directors, without stockholder approval, will be able to issue convertible preferred stock with voting, conversion, or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock. Preferred stock could be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change of control or make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock, and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. At present, we have no plans to issue any shares of preferred stock following this offering. We have not issued any shares of preferred stock.

 

Our board of directors will fix the designations, voting powers, rights, preferences and privileges of each series, as well as the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of the Preferred Stock of each series that we offer under this prospectus and applicable prospectus supplements in the certificate of designation relating to that series. We will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from reports that we file with the SEC, the form of any certificate of designation that describes the terms of the series of Preferred Stock we are offering before the issuance of that series of Preferred Stock. This description will include:

  the number of shares being offered;
     
  the liquidation preference per share;
     
  the purchase price per share;

  voting rights, if any, of the Preferred Stock;
     
  preemption rights, if any;
     
  restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;
     
  a discussion of any material or special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the Preferred Stock;
     
  the relative ranking and preferences of the Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs;
     
  the limitations on issuances of any class or series of Preferred Stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of Preferred Stock being issued as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and

Upon issuance, the shares of Preferred Stock will be fully paid and non-assessable.

Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws

 

Delaware Law

 

We are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly traded Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A business combination includes mergers, asset sales or other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years, did own) 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock, subject to certain exceptions. The statute could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company.

 

Removal of Directors

 

Our Bylaws provide that stockholders holding at least 66-2/3% of the voting power may remove any director from office with or without cause.

 

Stockholders not Entitled to Cumulative Voting

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation does not permit stockholders to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Accordingly, the election of directors shall be decided by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the stockholders by the holders of stock entitled to vote in the election; provided, however, if the number of nominees for director exceeds the directors to be elected, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares represented in person or by proxy.

 

Choice of Forum

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty; any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the DGCL, our Certificate of Incorporation, or our Bylaws; any action to interpret, apply, enforce, or determine the validity of our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; or any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ Certificates of Incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that a court could find these types of provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable.

 

Amendment Provisions

 

The Board of Directors is expressly authorized and empowered to adopt, amend, alter, or repair or repeal the Bylaws without any action on the part of the stockholders. The stockholders also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the voting power.

 

Board of Directors Vacancies

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws authorize either our board of directors or stockholders holding a majority of the voting power to fill vacant directorships. In addition, the number of directors constituting our board of directors may be set only by resolution of the majority of the incumbent directors.

 

Stockholder Action; Special Meeting of Stockholders

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that our stockholders may take action by written consent. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws further provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called by a majority of the board of directors or pursuant to demands from stockholders who own, in the aggregate, at least 15% of the outstanding voting power.

 

30
 

 

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

 

Our Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to the secretary at our principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, or if no annual meeting was held in the preceding year, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which a public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by us. These provisions may preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders.

 

These provisions could discourage a potential acquirer from acquiring Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. or otherwise attempting to obtain control and increase the likelihood that its incumbent directors and officers will retain their positions.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

 

Common Stock

 

The material terms and provisions of our common stock are described under the caption “Description of Securities”.

 

Common Warrants

 

Overview. The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Common Warrants offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the Common Warrant agent agreement between us the Common Warrant Agent, and the form of Common Warrant which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

 

Each Series A Warrant will have an exercise price of $[  ] per share (or 200% of the price of each Common Unit) and will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval. Beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Series A Warrants will contain a reset of the exercise price to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the then-current exercise price and (ii) the lowest volume weighted average price (VWAP) for the five trading days immediately preceding and immediately following the date we effect a reverse split with a proportionate adjustment to the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants (a “Reverse Split Reset”). Any such adjustment will be subject to a floor price (“the Floor Price”) calculated as follows: (a) prior to the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, 50% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price, and (b) after the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price. Nasdaq Minimum Price means the lower of the Nasdaq closing price or the average closing price for the five immediately preceding trading days, all as at the pricing of this offering. Additionally, with certain exceptions, beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Series A Warrants will provide for an adjustment to the exercise price and number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants (the “Dilutive Adjustment”) upon our issuance of our common stock or common stock equivalents at any time after the closing of the offering, at a price per share that is less than the then exercise price of the Series A Warrants. Any Dilutive Adjustment will be subject to the Floor Price. The Series A Warrant may not be exercised until Warrant Stockholder Approval.

 

31
 

 

Each Series B Warrant will have an exercise price of $[  ] per share (or 200% of the price of each Common Unit or pursuant to an alternative cashless exercise option). The Series B Warrant will expire on the 2 and one-half year anniversary of the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval. Beginning on the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the holder of the Series B Warrants has the right to receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series B Warrants and (y) 2.0. Also, the Series B Warrants will provide for a Reverse Split Reset subject to the Floor Price. The Series B Warrants may not be exercised until Warrant Stockholder Approval.

 

Effective on the 11th trading day following the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the exercise price and the number of shares underlying the Common Warrants will be reset to the then-current lowest VWAP in the period commencing on the first trading day following the date of the Warrant Stockholder Approval and ending the close of trading on the tenth trading day thereafter. Such reset will be subject to the Floor Price. With respect to all of the Warrants, with the consent of the holder, we may adjust the exercise price to such amount and for such time as may be agreed upon. Finally, none of the Warrants may be exercisable until the Warrant Stockholder Approval.

 

Each holder of Common Warrants will be prohibited from exercising its Common Warrant for shares of our common stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of our common stock then issued and outstanding. However, any holder may increase such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%. The Common Warrants will be issued in certificated form.

 

This offering also relates to the offering of the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Common Warrants. For more information regarding the Common Warrants, you should carefully read the section titled “Description of Securities We Are Offering — Common Warrants” in this prospectus.

 

Exercise Limitation. A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the Common Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s Common Warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Common Warrants.

 

Variable Rate Transactions: Until the three-month anniversary of the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the Company is prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company of common stock or common stock equivalence involving a variable rate transaction (as defined in the applicable Warrant).

 

Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon exercise of the Common Warrants. If, upon exercise of the Common Warrant, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, in our discretion and upon exercise, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price or round up to the next whole share.

 

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the Common Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned at the option of the holder without our consent.

 

Exchange Listing. There is no established public trading market for the Common Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to list the Common Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

 

Fundamental Transactions. In the event of a “fundamental transaction”, as described in the Common Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding common stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the holders of the Common Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Common Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Common Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

 

32
 

 

Rights as a Stockholder. Except by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of a Common Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Common Warrant.

 

Pre-Funded Warrants

 

The following description of the Pre-Funded Warrants we are offering is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable for one share of our common stock, with an exercise price equal to $0.001 per share, at any time that the Pre-Funded Warrant is outstanding. There is no expiration date for the Pre-Funded Warrants. The holder of a Pre-Funded Warrant will not be deemed a holder of our underlying common stock until the Pre-Funded Warrant is exercised.

 

The exercise price and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of recapitalization events, stock dividends, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock.

 

The term “pre-funded” refers to the fact that the purchase price of our common stock in this offering includes almost the entire exercise price that will be paid under the Pre-Funded Warrants, except for a nominal remaining exercise price of $0.001. The purpose of the Pre-Funded Warrants is to enable investors that may have restrictions on their ability to beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, upon election of the holder, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock following the consummation of this offering the opportunity to make an investment in us without triggering their ownership restrictions, by receiving Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu of our common stock which would result in such ownership of more than 4.99% (or 9.99%), and receive the ability to exercise their option to purchase the shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants at such nominal price at a later date.

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable, at the option of the holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise, as discussed below). A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the Pre-Funded Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the outstanding shares of common stock immediately after exercise. However, upon notice from the holder to us, the holder may decrease or increase the holder’s beneficial ownership limitation, which may not exceed 9.99% of the number of outstanding shares of common stock immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants, provided that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation will not take effect until 61 days following notice to us. Purchasers in this offering may also elect, prior to the issuance of the Pre-Funded Warrants, to have the initial exercise limitation set at 9.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Pre-Funded Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will either pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price or round up to the next whole share.

 

If at the time a holder exercises its Pre-Funded Warrants, a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants under the Securities Act is not then effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

33
 

 

Subject to applicable laws, a Pre-Funded Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Pre-Funded Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

 

Exchange Listing.

 

There is no trading market available for the Pre-Funded Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. We do not intend to list the Pre-Funded Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

 

Right as a Stockholder.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Pre-Funded Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of our shares of common stock, the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our shares of common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises their Pre-Funded Warrants.

 

Fundamental Transaction.

 

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Pre-Funded Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our shares of common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding shares of common stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding shares of common stock, the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. Additionally, as more fully described in the Pre-Funded Warrants, in the event of certain fundamental transactions, the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled to receive consideration in an amount equal to the Black Scholes value of the Pre-Funded Warrants on the date of consummation of the transaction.

 

UNDERWRITING

 

We will enter into an underwriting agreement with Aegis Capital Corp. (“Aegis” or the “underwriter”) in connection with this offering. Aegis is acting as the sole book-running manager. The underwriting agreement provides for the purchase of a specific number of units. The underwriter has agreed to purchase the number of units set forth opposite its name below:

 

Underwriter 

Number of

Units

 
Aegis Capital Corp.           

 

The underwriter has agreed to purchase all of the units offered by this prospectus (other than those covered by the over-allotment option described below), if any are purchased under the underwriting agreement.

 

The underwriter is offering the units subject to various conditions and may reject all or part of any order. The representative of the underwriter has advised us that the underwriter proposes to offer the units directly to the public at the public offering price per unit that appears on the cover page of this prospectus. In addition, the representative may offer some of the units to other securities dealers at such price less a concession of $[_____] per unit. After the units are released for sale to the public, the representative may change the offering price and other selling terms at various times.

 

We have granted the underwriter an over-allotment option to purchase up to 719,178 additional shares of common stock, representing 15% of the Common Units sold in the offering (at an assumed public offering price of $1.46 per Common Unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 9, 2024), and/or up to 719,178 additional Pre-Funded Warrants, representing 15% of the Pre-funded Warrants sold in the offering, and/or up to 719,178 additional Series A Warrants, representing 15% of the Series A Warrants sold in the offering, and/or up to 719,178 additional Series B Warrants, representing 15% of the Series B Warrants sold in the offering, on the same terms and conditions set forth above solely to cover over-allotments. The underwriter may exercise the over-allotment option with respect to shares of common stock only, Pre-Funded Warrants only, Series A Warrants only, Series B Warrants only, or any combination thereof.

 

34
 

 

If the underwriter exercises all or part of this option, Aegis will purchase shares, warrants or units covered by the option at the public offering price that appears on the cover page of this prospectus, less the underwriting discount. The underwriter has agreed that, to the extent the over-allotment option is exercised, they will purchase the additional shares, warrants or units reflected in the foregoing table.

 

The following table provides information regarding the amount of the discount to be paid to the underwriter by us, before expenses (these amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option in the offering):

Public offering price  $ 1.46    $ 7,000,000    $ 8,050,000

Proceeds to us (before expenses)  $ 1.35    $ 6,440,000    $ 7,406,000  

 

(1) We have agreed to pay a non-accountable expense allowance to Aegis equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds received in this offering. We have also agreed to reimburse Aegis for certain out-of-pocket expenses, including, but not limited to, up to $100,000 for reasonable legal fees and disbursements for the underwriter’s counsel.

 

From time to time, Aegis or its affiliates have in the past or may in the future engage in investment banking and/or other services with us and our affiliates for which it has received or may in the future receive customary fees and expenses. In October 2024, Aegis served as the underwriter in connection with a public offering (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of 366,000 shares (the “Shares”) of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, pursuant to an underwriting agreement between Aegis and us (the “October Underwriting Agreement”) containing standard terms, including standstill provisions. The Offering closed on October 10, 2024, and we received net proceeds of approximately $536,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses payable by us associated with the Offering.

 

Lock-Up Agreements

 

Our directors , executive officers and 10% stockholders have agreed that, for a period of ninety (90) days from the closing date of the offering, subject to certain limited exceptions, they will not directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Aegis, (a) offer, sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company; or (b) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company.

 

Our directors, executive officers and 10% stockholders have agreed not to offer, sell, dispose of or hedge any shares of our common stock, subject to specified limited exceptions, for a period of ninety (90) days after the date of this offering.

 

Aegis, in its sole discretion, may release the common stock and other securities subject to the lock-up agreements described above in whole or in part at any time. When determining whether or not to release common stock and other securities from lock-up agreements, Aegis will consider, among other factors, the holder’s reasons for requesting the release, the number of shares of common stock and other securities for which the release is being requested and market conditions at the time.

 

35
 

 

Company Standstill

 

Without the prior written consent of Aegis, the Company has agreed, for a period of three (3) months from the closing date of the offering, that it will not (a) offer, sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company; or (b) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company except for (i) the adoption of an equity incentive plan, or the amendment of an existing equity incentive plan, and the grant of awards or equity pursuant to any equity incentive plan, and the filing of a registration statement on Form S-8; provided, however, that any sales by parties to the lockups shall be subject to the lock-up agreements and (ii) this issuance of shares in connection with an acquisition or a strategic relationship which may include the sale of equity securities, including, without limitation, an issuance of shares in connection with an agreement with a vehicle manufacturer; provided, that none of such shares shall be saleable in the public market until the expiration of the applicable period described above.

 

Right of First Refusal

 

If, for the period ending twelve (12) months from the closing of the offering, or nine (9) months from the closing of the offering if the offering is below $5.0 million, we or any of our subsidiaries decides to raise funds by means of a public offering or a private placement or any other capital raising financing of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, Aegis (or any affiliate designated by Aegis) shall have the right to act as sole book-running manager, sole underwriter or sole placement agent for such financing. If Aegis or one of its affiliates decides to accept any such engagement, the agreement governing such engagement will contain, among other things, provisions for customary fees for transactions of similar size and nature, but in no event will the fee structure be less than those outlined in the underwriting agreement between the Company and Aegis entered into for this offering, and the provisions of such underwriting agreement, including indemnification, which are appropriate to such transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the decision to accept the Company’s engagement shall be made by Aegis or one of its affiliates, by a written notice to the Company, within ten (10) days of the receipt of the Company’s notification of its financing needs, which notice shall include a detailed term sheet. The foregoing right of first refusal shall not apply to (i) any transaction where the book-running manager, underwriter or placement agent for such financing is a tier one investment bank in the United States or (ii) any non-public financings or transactions not involving an investment bank, financial advisor, placement agent, finder or other party receiving payment in connection with the offering, including, without limitation, rights offerings to existing shareholders or similar transactions.

 

Tail Financing

 

Aegis shall be entitled to compensation with respect to any public or private offering or other financing or capital raising transaction of any kind to the extent that such financing or capital is provided to us by funds whom Aegis had contacted during the engagement period or introduced to us during the engagement period, if such tail financing is consummated at any time within the three (3) month period following the closing of the offering or the expiration or termination of the letter of engagement between Aegis and us dated November 18, 2024, as may be amended from time to time.

 

Indemnification

 

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission may limit the ability of the underwriter to bid for or purchase shares before the distribution of the shares is completed. However, the underwriter may engage in the following activities in accordance with the rules:

 

● Stabilizing transactions — The representative may make bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the shares, so long as stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

 

36
 

 

● Over-allotments and syndicate covering transactions — The underwriter may sell more shares of our common stock in connection with this offering than the number of shares that they have committed to purchase. This over-allotment creates a short position for the underwriter. This short sales position may involve either “covered” short sales or “naked” short sales. Covered short sales are short sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase additional shares in this offering described above. The underwriter may close out any covered short position either by exercising their over-allotment option or by purchasing shares in the open market. To determine how they will close the covered short position, the underwriter will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market, as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option. Naked short sales are short sales in excess of the over-allotment option. The underwriter must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriter is concerned that, in the open market after pricing, there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares that could adversely affect investors who purchase shares in this offering.

 

● Penalty bids — If the representative purchases shares in the open market in a stabilizing transaction or syndicate covering transaction, it may reclaim a selling concession from the underwriter and selling group members who sold those shares as part of this offering.

 

● Passive market making — Market makers in the shares who is the underwriter may make bids for or purchases of shares, subject to limitations, until the time, if ever, at which a stabilizing bid is made.

 

Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriter’s purchases to cover the syndicate short sales or to stabilize the market price of our common stock may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or mitigating a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of the shares of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of the shares if it discourages resales of the shares.

 

Neither we nor the underwriter make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the shares. These transactions may occur on the Nasdaq Capital Market or otherwise. If such transactions are commenced, they may be discontinued without notice at any time.

 

Electronic Delivery of Preliminary Prospectus: A preliminary prospectus in electronic format may be delivered to potential investors by one or more of the underwriters participating in this offering. The preliminary prospectus supplement in electronic format will be identical to the paper version of such preliminary prospectus. Other than the preliminary prospectus in electronic format, the information on any underwriter’s website and any information contained in any other website maintained by an underwriter is not part of this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

The underwriter and its affiliates have provided in the past and may provide from time to time in the future certain commercial banking, financial advisory, investment banking and other services for us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of their business, for which they may receive customary fees and commissions. In addition, from time to time, the underwriter and their affiliates may effect transactions for their own account or the accounts of customers, and hold on behalf of itself or its customers, long or short positions in our debt or equity securities or loans, and may do so in the future. Aegis may release, or authorize us to release, as the case may be, the common stock and other securities subject to the lock-up agreements described above in whole or in part at any time with or without notice.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides that a Delaware corporation, in its certificate of incorporation, may limit the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability for any:

 

  transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit;
  act or omission not in good faith or that involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
  unlawful payment of dividends or redemption of shares; or
  breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders.

 

Under Section 145 of the DGCL, we can indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Our certificate of incorporation (Exhibit 3.1 to this registration statement) provides that we must indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law and requires us to pay expenses incurred in defending or other participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon our receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to indemnification. Our certificate of incorporation further provides that rights conferred under such certificate of incorporation do not exclude any other right such persons may have or acquire under the certificate of incorporation, the bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

 

The certificate of incorporation also provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, our directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to us and our stockholders. This provision in the certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. We also intend to obtain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance pursuant to which our directors and officers are insured against liability for actions taken in their capacities as directors and officers.

 

In addition, we have entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and certain of our officers in addition to the indemnification provided for in the certificate of incorporation. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and some of our officers for certain expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in our right, on account of services by that person as a director or officer of our company or as a director or officer of our subsidiary, or as a director or officer of any other company or enterprise that the person provides services to at our request.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

  (a)(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

  (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

II-2
 

 

  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
     
  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement or are contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of this registration statement.

 

  (2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
     
  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
     
  (4) That in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
     
  (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
     
  (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
     
  (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

  (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

II-3
 

 

  (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
     
  (d) That,

 

  (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
     
  (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

2.1. Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2.4.1 herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2.3 below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days after the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

2.2. Exercise Price. The exercise price per Warrant Share shall be $[●]1, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

 

2.3. Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder or the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

 

(A) =as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the highest Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. within two (2) hours of the time of the Holder’s delivery of the applicable Notice of Exercise pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” or within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof after two (2) hours following the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
(B) =the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) =the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2.3.

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2.3.

2.4. Mechanics of Exercise.

 

2.4.1. Delivery of Warrant Shares upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate or by electronic delivery (at the election of the Holder), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for purposes of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act to have become the holder of the Warrant Shares irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the third (3rd) Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a Transfer Agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise delivered on or prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time of execution of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver the Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date and the Initial Exercise Date shall be the Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by such Warrant Share Delivery Date.

2.4.2. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

2.4.3. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.4.1 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

2.4.4. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4.1 above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored and return any amount received by the Company in respect of the Exercise Price for those Warrant Shares (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

2.4.5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

2.4.6. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.4.6 duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

2.4.7. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

2.5. Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2.5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2.5 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.5, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% (or, upon election by a Holder prior to the issuance of any Warrants, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2.5, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2.5 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

3.Certain Adjustments.

3.1. Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

3.2. Subsequent Equity Sales. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding (such period, the “Adjustment Period”), the Company issues, sells, enters into an agreement to sell, or grants any option to purchase, or sells, enters into an agreement to sell, or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), or, in accordance with this Section 3.2, is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for a consideration per share less than a price equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Exercise Price then in effect is referred to as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then simultaneously with the consummation (or, if earlier, the announcement) of such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the Dilutive Issuance price (such lower price, the “Base Share Price”) and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be proportionately increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant on the Issuance Date for the Warrant Shares then outstanding shall remain unchanged; provided that the reduced Exercise Price shall not be less than the Floor Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 3.2 in respect of an Exempt Issuance. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Exercise Price has been adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.2 and the Dilutive Issuance that triggered such adjustment does not occur, is not consummated, is unwound or is cancelled after the facts for any reason whatsoever, in no event shall the Exercise Price be readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect if such Dilutive Issuance had not occurred or been consummated. For all purposes of the foregoing, the following shall be applicable:

 

10
 

 

3.2.1. Issuance of Options. If, during the Adjustment Period, the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any convertible securities (“Convertible Securities”) issuable upon exercise of any such Option (such shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of any Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, the “Convertible Securities Shares”) is less than the Applicable Price, then such shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 3.2.1, the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option” shall be equal to (A) the sum of (1) the lowest amount of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one Convertible Securities Share upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option and (2) the lowest exercise price set forth in such Option for which one Convertible Securities Share is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option, minus (B) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person), with respect to any one Convertible Securities Share, upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Option (or any other Person), with respect to any one Convertible Securities Share. Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Convertible Securities Share or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Convertible Securities Share upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

3.2.2. Issuance of Convertible Securities. If, during the Adjustment Period, the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one Convertible Securities Share is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Convertible Securities Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 3.2.2, the “lowest price per share for which one Convertible Securities Share is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to (A) the sum of (1) the lowest amount of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one Convertible Securities Share upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security and (2) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Convertible Security for which one Convertible Securities Share is issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof, minus (B) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person), with respect to any one Convertible Securities Share, upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person), with respect to any one Convertible Securities Share. Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Convertible Securities Share upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Exercise Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 3.2, except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.

 

11
 

 

3.2.3. Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If, during the Adjustment Period, the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 3.1), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 3.2.3, if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of this Warrant are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the Convertible Securities Share deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

 

3.2.4. Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Option or Convertible Security is issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (the “Primary Security”, and such Option or Convertible Security, the “Secondary Securities” and together with the Primary Security, each a “Unit”), together comprising one integrated transaction, the aggregate consideration per share with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be the lowest of (x) the purchase price of such Unit, and (y) if such Primary Security is an Option and/or Convertible Security, the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Primary Security in accordance with Section 3.2.1 or 3.2.2 above. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount of cash received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (as the case may be). The fair market value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair market value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

 

12
 

 

3.2.5. Record Date. If, during the Adjustment Period, the Company takes a record of stockholders for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).

 

3.3. Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Reset.

 

3.3.1. Warrant Shares Reset Process. On the Reset Date, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the lower of (i) the Exercise Price then in effect and (ii) the Reset Price. Upon such reset of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 3.3.1, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price on the Issuance Date (adjusted for any Warrants exercised or sold by the Holder prior to such Reset Date) for the Warrant Shares then outstanding, subject to adjustment for any prior exercises pursuant to Section 3.3.2.

 

3.3.2. Exercise Prior to Reset Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder requests to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, prior to the Reset Date on any given date following Stockholder Approval on which (i) the exercised Warrant Shares are registered pursuant to an effective Registration Statement that is available for the resale of such Warrant Shares, (ii) the Holder can sell the exercised Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction or limitation and the Company has not had a Public Information Failure or (iii) twelve (12) months immediately following the Issuance Date (any such date, an “Exercise Date”), then solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant being exercised on such applicable Exercise Date, (a) such applicable Reset Date shall be deemed to mean the Exercise Date, (b) such applicable Reset Period shall be deemed to have commenced on the applicable date set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) hereof and ended following the close of trading on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Exercise Date and (c) the applicable Reset Price for such exercised Warrants shall be calculated pursuant to Section 3.3 solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant being exercised on such applicable date (any such date, an “Exercise Date”), (a) such applicable Reset Period shall be deemed to have commenced on the Stockholder Approval Date and to have ended on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Exercise Date, and (b) the applicable Reset Price for such exercised Warrants shall be calculated pursuant to Section 3.3. For the avoidance of doubt, following the calculation of the Reset Price pursuant to this Section 3.3.2, the Company’s obligations with regard to such exercised Warrants shall be deemed satisfied and no additional Reset Price shall apply to such exercised Warrants.

 

13
 

 

3.4. Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3.1 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all (or substantially all) of the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

3.5. Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all (or substantially all) holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). To the extent that this Warrant has not been partially or completely exercised at the time of such Distribution, such portion of the Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until the Holder has exercised this Warrant.

3.6. Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company or any Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2.5 on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2.5 on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s control, including not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock/shares of the Successor Entity (which Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg, L.P. (“Bloomberg”) determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of (1) 100% and (2) the 100 day volatility as obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3.6 and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.6 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant that is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock prior to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3.6 regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.

 

15
 

 

3.7. Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

3.8. Notice to Holder.

 

3.8.1. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

3.8.2. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

3.9. Share Combination Event Adjustment. In addition to the adjustments set forth in Section 3.1 above, if at any time and from time to time on or after the Issuance Date there occurs any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, share combination recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the Common Stock (each, a “Share Combination Event”, and such date thereof, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest VWAP during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately following the Share Combination Event Date (the “Share Combination Adjustment Period”, and such price, the “Event Market Price”) is less than the Exercise Price then in effect (after giving effect to the adjustment in clause 3.1 above), then immediately following the close of trading on the primary Trading Market on the last day of the Share Combination Adjustment Period, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant on the Issuance Date for the Warrant Shares then outstanding shall remain unchanged following such event; provided, however, if the Share Combination Event is effective after close of Trading on the primary Trading Market, then the Share Combination Event Date shall be deemed to occur on the next Trading Day, and the Share Combination Adjustment Period shall be adjusted accordingly; provided, further, that the adjustment to the Exercise Price in this sentence shall not reduce the Exercise Price below the Floor Price; and provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing, if one or more Share Combination Events occurred prior to the Stockholder Approval being obtained and the reduction of the Exercise Price was limited by clause (i) of the definition of Floor Price, then once the Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Exercise Price will automatically be reduced to equal the greater of (x) the lowest Event Market Price with respect to any Share Combination Event that occurred prior to the Stockholder Approval being obtained, and (y) the price determined by reference to clause (ii) of the definition of Floor Price. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) if the adjustment in the immediately preceding sentence would otherwise result in an increase in the Exercise Price hereunder, no adjustment shall be made, and if this Warrant is exercised, on any given exercise date during the Share Combination Adjustment Period, solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant exercised on such applicable exercise date, such applicable Share Combination Adjustment Period shall be deemed to have ended on, and included, the Trading Day immediately prior to such exercise date and the Event Market Price on such applicable exercise date will be the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock immediately during such the Share Combination Adjustment Period prior to such exercise date and ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately prior to such exercise date and (b) all adjustments pursuant to this Section 3.9 shall also be subject to Section 3.1 above, including any Event Market Price.

 

3.10. Voluntary Adjustment by Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market and the consent of the Holder, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors.

 

3.11. Stockholder Approval. The Company shall hold a special meeting of stockholders (which may also be at the annual meeting of stockholders) at the earliest practicable date after the date hereof, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval, if required to effect the purpose thereof, with the recommendation of the Board that such proposal be approved, and the Company shall solicit proxies from its stockholders in connection therewith in the same manner as all other management proposals in such proxy statement and all management-appointed proxyholders shall vote their proxies in favor of such proposal. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such Stockholder Approval, and officers, directors, and shareholders subject to the Lock-Up Agreement shall cast their proxies in favor of such proposal. If the Company does not obtain Stockholder Approval at the first meeting, the Company shall call a meeting every sixty (60) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until the earlier of the date Stockholder Approval is obtained or these Warrants are no longer outstanding.

 

3.12. Variable Rate Transactions. The Company, at any time until the three (3) month anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the shares of Common Stock or (ii) enters into, or effects a transaction under, any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price. The Holder shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages and any adjustments herein.

4.Transfer of Warrant.

4.1. Transferability. This Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.4.6 duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days after the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

4.2. New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4.1, as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial Issuance Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

4.3. Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

5.Miscellaneous.

5.1. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2.4.1, except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2.3 or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2.4.1 and Section 2.4.4 herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

18
 

 

5.2. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

5.3. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

5.4. Authorized Shares.

 

5.4.1. Reservation of Authorized and Unissued Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant and assuming that the number of Warrant Shares is being determined based on a Reset Price equal to clause (ii) of the Floor Price. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (which means that no further sums are required to be paid by the holders thereof in connection with the issue thereof) and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

5.4.2. Noncircumvention. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, assuming that the number of Warrant Shares is being determined based on a Reset Price equal to clause (ii) of the Floor Price and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

19
 

 

5.4.3. Authorizations, Exemptions and Consents. Before taking any action that would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

5.5. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for their reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall limit or restrict the federal district court in which a Holder may bring a claim under the federal securities laws.

 

5.6. Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

20
 

 

5.7. Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. No provision of this Warrant shall be construed as a waiver by the Holder of any rights which the Holder may have under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Underwriting Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

5.8. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holders hereunder including, without limitation, any Notice of Exercise, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at 551 Calle San Pablo, Camarillo, California 93012, Attention: Greg Campbell, Chief Executive Officer, email address: gcampbell@sacksparente.com, or such other email address or address as the Company may specify for such purposes by notice to the Holders. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service addressed to each Holder at the e-mail address or address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company. Any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail at the e-mail address set forth in this Section 5.8 prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date, (ii) the next Trading Day after the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail at the e-mail address set forth in this Section 5.8 on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the second Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

5.9. Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

5.10. Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

21
 

 

5.11. Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

5.12. Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and a majority-in-interest of Holders of the Warrants, on the other hand. No modification or amendment or modification of the provisions hereof may be waived in a manner that is more favorable to other holder(s) of Warrants, as applicable, or to treat any holder(s) of Warrants in a manner that is in any respect not equal to the treatment of all other holder(s) of Warrants.

 

5.13. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

5.14. Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

Within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2.4.1 herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2.3 below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to cashless exercise herein shall include a reference to alternative cashless exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days after the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

2.2. Exercise Price. The exercise price per Warrant Share shall be $[●]1, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

 

2.3. Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder or the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

 

  (A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the highest Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. within two (2) hours of the time of the Holder’s delivery of the applicable Notice of Exercise pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” or within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof after two (2) hours following the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
     
  (B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
     
  (X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2.3.

 

Whether or not an effective registration statement is available, the Holder may also effect an “alternative cashless exercise” following the Stockholder Approval Date. In such event, the aggregate number of Warrant Shares issuable in such alternative cashless exercise pursuant to any given Notice of Exercise electing to effect an alternative cashless exercise shall equal the product of (i) the aggregate number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise, multiplied by (ii) 2.0. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2.3 (including an alternative cashless exercise pursuant to this paragraph). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2.3.

2.4. Mechanics of Exercise.

 

2.4.1. Delivery of Warrant Shares upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate or by electronic delivery (at the election of the Holder), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for purposes of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act to have become the holder of the Warrant Shares irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the third (3rd) Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a Transfer Agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise delivered on or prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time of execution of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver the Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date and the Initial Exercise Date shall be the Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by such Warrant Share Delivery Date.

 

2.4.2. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

2.4.3. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.4.1 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

6

 

 

2.4.4. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4.1 above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored and return any amount received by the Company in respect of the Exercise Price for those Warrant Shares (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

2.4.5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

2.4.6. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.4.6 duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

2.4.7. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

2.5. Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2.5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2.5 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.5, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% (or, upon election by a Holder prior to the issuance of any Warrants, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2.5, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2.5 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

3. Certain Adjustments.

 

3.1. Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

3.2. Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Reset.

 

3.2.1. Warrant Shares Reset Process. On the Reset Date, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the lower of (i) the Exercise Price then in effect and (ii) the Reset Price. Upon such reset of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 3.2.1, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price on the Issuance Date (adjusted for any Warrants exercised or sold by the Holder prior to such Reset Date) for the Warrant Shares then outstanding, subject to adjustment for any prior exercises pursuant to Section 3.2.2.

 

9

 

 

3.2.2. Exercise Prior to Reset Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder requests to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, prior to the Reset Date on any given date following Stockholder Approval on which (i) the exercised Warrant Shares are registered pursuant to an effective Registration Statement that is available for the resale of such Warrant Shares, (ii) the Holder can sell the exercised Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction or limitation and the Company has not had a Public Information Failure or (iii) twelve (12) months immediately following the Issuance Date (any such date, an “Exercise Date”), then solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant being exercised on such applicable Exercise Date, (a) such applicable Reset Date shall be deemed to mean the Exercise Date, (b) such applicable Reset Period shall be deemed to have commenced on the applicable date set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) hereof and ended following the close of trading on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Exercise Date and (c) the applicable Reset Price for such exercised Warrants shall be calculated pursuant to Section 3.2 solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant being exercised on such applicable date (any such date, an “Exercise Date”), (a) such applicable Reset Period shall be deemed to have commenced on the Stockholder Approval Date and to have ended on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Exercise Date, and (b) the applicable Reset Price for such exercised Warrants shall be calculated pursuant to Section 3.2. For the avoidance of doubt, following the calculation of the Reset Price pursuant to this Section 3.2.2, the Company’s obligations with regard to such exercised Warrants shall be deemed satisfied and no additional Reset Price shall apply to such exercised Warrants.

 

3.3. Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3.1 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all (or substantially all) of the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

3.4. Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all (or substantially all) holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). To the extent that this Warrant has not been partially or completely exercised at the time of such Distribution, such portion of the Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until the Holder has exercised this Warrant.

3.5. Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company or any Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2.5 on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2.5 on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s control, including not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock/shares of the Successor Entity (which Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg, L.P. (“Bloomberg”) determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of (1) 100% and (2) the 100 day volatility as obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3.5 and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.5 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant that is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock prior to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3.5 regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.

 

11

 

 

3.6. Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

3.7. Notice to Holder.

 

3.7.1. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

3.7.2. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

3.8. Share Combination Event Adjustment. In addition to the adjustments set forth in Section 3.1 above, if at any time and from time to time on or after the Issuance Date there occurs any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, share combination recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the Common Stock (each, a “Share Combination Event”, and such date thereof, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest VWAP during the five (5) consecutive Trading Days immediately following the Share Combination Event Date (the “Share Combination Adjustment Period”, and such price, the “Event Market Price”) is less than the Exercise Price then in effect (after giving effect to the adjustment in clause 3.1 above), then immediately following the close of trading on the primary Trading Market on the last day of the Share Combination Adjustment Period, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant on the Issuance Date for the Warrant Shares then outstanding shall remain unchanged following such event; provided, however, if the Share Combination Event is effective after close of Trading on the primary Trading Market, then the Share Combination Event Date shall be deemed to occur on the next Trading Day, and the Share Combination Adjustment Period shall be adjusted accordingly; provided, further, that the adjustment to the Exercise Price in this sentence shall not reduce the Exercise Price below the Floor Price; and provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing, if one or more Share Combination Events occurred prior to the Stockholder Approval being obtained and the reduction of the Exercise Price was limited by clause (i) of the definition of Floor Price, then once the Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Exercise Price will automatically be reduced to equal the greater of (x) the lowest Event Market Price with respect to any Share Combination Event that occurred prior to the Stockholder Approval being obtained, and (y) the price determined by reference to clause (ii) of the definition of Floor Price. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) if the adjustment in the immediately preceding sentence would otherwise result in an increase in the Exercise Price hereunder, no adjustment shall be made, and if this Warrant is exercised, on any given exercise date during the Share Combination Adjustment Period, solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant exercised on such applicable exercise date, such applicable Share Combination Adjustment Period shall be deemed to have ended on, and included, the Trading Day immediately prior to such exercise date and the Event Market Price on such applicable exercise date will be the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock immediately during such the Share Combination Adjustment Period prior to such exercise date and ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately prior to such exercise date and (b) all adjustments pursuant to this Section 3.8 shall also be subject to Section 3.1 above, including any Event Market Price.

 

3.9. Voluntary Adjustment by Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market and the consent of the Holder, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors.

 

3.10. Stockholder Approval. The Company shall hold a special meeting of stockholders (which may also be at the annual meeting of stockholders) at the earliest practicable date after the date hereof, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval, if required to effect the purpose thereof, with the recommendation of the Board that such proposal be approved, and the Company shall solicit proxies from its stockholders in connection therewith in the same manner as all other management proposals in such proxy statement and all management-appointed proxyholders shall vote their proxies in favor of such proposal. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such Stockholder Approval, and officers, directors, and shareholders subject to the Lock-Up Agreement shall cast their proxies in favor of such proposal. If the Company does not obtain Stockholder Approval at the first meeting, the Company shall call a meeting every sixty (60) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until the earlier of the date Stockholder Approval is obtained or these Warrants are no longer outstanding.

 

13

 

 

3.11. Variable Rate Transactions. The Company, at any time until the three (3) month anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the shares of Common Stock or (ii) enters into, or effects a transaction under, any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price. The Holder shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages and any adjustments herein.

 

4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

4.1. Transferability. This Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.4.6 duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days after the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

14

 

 

4.2. New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4.1, as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial Issuance Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

4.3. Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

5. Miscellaneous.

 

5.1. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2.4.1, except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2.3 or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2.4.1 and Section 2.4.4 herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

5.2. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

5.3. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

15

 

 

5.4. Authorized Shares.

 

5.4.1. Reservation of Authorized and Unissued Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant and assuming that the number of Warrant Shares is being determined based on a Reset Price equal to clause (ii) of the Floor Price. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (which means that no further sums are required to be paid by the holders thereof in connection with the issue thereof) and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

5.4.2. Noncircumvention. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, assuming that the number of Warrant Shares is being determined based on a Reset Price equal to clause (ii) of the Floor Price and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

5.4.3. Authorizations, Exemptions and Consents. Before taking any action that would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

16

 

 

5.5. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for their reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall limit or restrict the federal district court in which a Holder may bring a claim under the federal securities laws.

 

5.6. Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

5.7. Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. No provision of this Warrant shall be construed as a waiver by the Holder of any rights which the Holder may have under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Underwriting Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

17

 

 

5.8. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holders hereunder including, without limitation, any Notice of Exercise, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at 551 Calle San Pablo, Camarillo, California 93012, Attention: Greg Campbell, Chief Executive Officer, email address: gcampbell@sacksparente.com, or such other email address or address as the Company may specify for such purposes by notice to the Holders. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service addressed to each Holder at the e-mail address or address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company. Any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail at the e-mail address set forth in this Section 5.8 prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date, (ii) the next Trading Day after the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail at the e-mail address set forth in this Section 5.8 on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the second Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

5.9. Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

5.10. Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

5.11. Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

5.12. Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and a majority-in-interest of Holders of the Warrants, on the other hand. No modification or amendment or modification of the provisions hereof may be waived in a manner that is more favorable to other holder(s) of Warrants, as applicable, or to treat any holder(s) of Warrants in a manner that is in any respect not equal to the treatment of all other holder(s) of Warrants.

 

5.13. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

5.14. Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

Sacks Parente Golf, Inc.

551 Calle San Pablo

Camarillo, California 93012

This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement or related prospectus, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issue of the Shares, Pre-Funded Warrants, Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, Series A Warrants, Series A Warrant Shares, Series B Warrants, and Series B Warrant Shares. The Securities are being sold pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Aegis Capital Corp. in the form most recently filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

 

In connection with our opinion, we have examined the Registration Statement, including the exhibits thereto, the form of Pre-Funded Warrant, the form of Series A Warrant, the form of Series B Warrant, and such other documents, corporate records and instruments, and have examined such laws and regulations, as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion. In making our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the legal capacity of all natural persons. As to matters of fact material to our opinions in this letter, we have relied on certificates and statements from officers and other employees of the Company, public officials and other appropriate persons.

 

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

 

1. The Shares, when issued by the Company against payment therefor in the circumstances contemplated by the Prospectus, will have been duly authorized for issuance by all necessary corporate action by the Company, and will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable;

 

2. The Pre-Funded Warrants, the Series A Warrants, and the Series B Warrants when issued by the Company against payment therefor in the circumstances contemplated by the Prospectus, will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and will constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms;

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications:

 

A. The opinion expressed herein with respect to the legality, validity, binding nature and enforceability of the Pre-Funded Warrants, Series A Warrants, and Series B Warrants is subject to (i) applicable laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, whether now or hereafter in effect and (ii) general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, laches, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the principles regarding when injunctive or other equitable remedies will be available (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

 

B. The foregoing opinions are limited to the General Corporation Law of Delaware (which includes those statutory provisions and all applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and the reported judicial decisions interpreting such laws) and the federal laws of the United States of America, and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are as of the date of this opinion letter only and as to laws covered hereby only as they are in effect on that date, and we assume no obligation to update or supplement such opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may come to our attention after that date or any changes in law that may occur or become effective after that date. The opinions herein are limited to the matters expressly set forth in this opinion letter, and no opinion or representation is given or may be inferred beyond the opinions expressly set forth in this opinion letter.

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of this firm’s name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
