Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Giga-tronics Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and an Investor Rights Agreement with Alara Capital AVI II, LLC (“Alara”) on February 16, 2015. Alara is currently the largest beneficial owner of the Company’s equity securities. The Securities Purchase Agreement provides for the exercise of existing warrants (“Existing Warrants”) held by Alara to acquire up to 1,017,405 shares of common stock of the Company through one or more closings and the issuance of new Warrants to Purchase Common Stock to Alara.
The first closing under the Securities Purchase Agreement occurred on February 16, 2015, with Alara exercising Existing Warrants to purchase 824,435 shares of common stock of the Company, and the Company issuing to Alara new Warrants to Purchase Common Stock for an additional 898,634 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.78 per share. For additional information regarding the first closing, please see the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 20, 2015.
On February 23, 2015, Alara exercised an additional 178,383 of its Existing Warrants in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Second Closing”). All of the Existing Warrants exercised at the Second Closing had an exercise price of $1.43 per share. Gross cash proceeds to the Company from the exercise of the Existing Warrants at the Second Closing are approximately $255,000. As part of the consideration for this exercise and pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Alara new Warrants to Purchase Common Stock (the “Second Closing Warrants”) for an additional 194,437 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.76 per share. The exercise price under the Second Closing Warrants may be paid in cash or through a net share settlement. The purchase price for the Second Closing Warrants was $24,305, or $0.125 per share. The term of the Second Closing Warrants is five years.
To effect the Second Closing, the Company and Alara entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement dated February 23, 2015, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Warrant to Purchase 194,437 Shares of Common Stock of the Company dated February 23, 2015, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On February 23, 2015, the Company issued 178,383 shares of its common stock upon Alara’s exercise of Existing Warrants and issued to Alara the Second Closing Warrants for the purchase of an additional 194,437 shares of the Company’s common stock in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities or “blue sky” laws. The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT
This Amendment No. 1 to Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of February 23, 2015, by and between Giga-tronics Incorporated, a corporation organized in the State of California (the “Company”), and Alara Capital AVI II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (including its successors and assigns, the “Purchaser”).
RECITALS
A. The Purchaser previously held warrants to acquire up to 1,017,405 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Existing Warrants”). On February 16, 2015, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement, pursuant to which the Purchaser exercised the Existing Warrants to purchase 824,435 of the 1,017,405 shares for which the Existing Warrants were exercisable, and the Company issued to the Purchaser a warrant (the “First Closing Warrant”) to purchase an additional 898,634 shares of common stock of the Company.
B. The Securities Purchase Agreement gave the Purchaser the right to receive a Second Closing Warrant in connection with the further exercise of the Existing Warrants. The Purchaser has committed to the further exercise of the Existing Warrants as provided in this Amendment.
C. Capitalized terms used and not separately defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
In consideration of the above factors, the Company and the Purchaser hereby agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Second Exercise of Existing Warrants . Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, on the date hereof, the Purchaser agrees to exercise the Existing Warrants for the purchase of 178,383 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Second Exercise”).
2. Issuance of New Warrants . In consideration of the Purchaser’s Second Exercise of Existing Warrants for the purchase of the number of shares described in section 1 above, the Company will issue to the Purchaser a new warrant for the acquisition of the number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to 109% of the number of shares for which the Existing Warrants are being exercised in the Second Exercise (the “Second Closing Warrant”), or 194,437 shares. Any fractional share will be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. The exercise price for each share of the Company’s common stock under the Second Closing Warrant will be $1.76. The Purchaser will pay to the Company a purchase price of $0.125 per underlying share for the issuance of the Second Closing Warrant.
3. Second Closing . The consummation of the Second Exercise is referred to as the “Second Closing”). The parties shall complete the Second Closing on February 17, 2015, or as soon thereafter as practicable (the “Second Closing Date”). The Second Closing shall take place remotely by facsimile transmission or other electronic means as the parties may mutually agree.
4. Form of Payment . Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and Purchaser, on the Second Closing Date, (1) the Company shall issue the Second Closing Warrant and (2) Purchaser shall wire the exercise price for shares being acquired by the Second Exercise of the Existing Warrants and the purchase price for the Second Closing Warrant, in United States dollars and in immediately available funds, in accordance with the Company’s written wire transfer instructions. Those amounts are:
Exercise price under Existing Warrants |
$ | 255,088 | ||
Purchase price for Second Closing Warrant |
24,305 | |||
Total |
279,393 |
5. Form of Second Closing Warrant . The form of the Second Closing Warrant shall be substantially the same as the form of the First Closing Warrant, revised to reflect the specific terms above. The Second Closing Warrant shall be dated the date of this Amendment and shall expire on the fifth anniversary of the date of this Amendment.
6. Second Closing Warrant as a “New Warrant.” The Second Closing Warrant is a “New Warrant” for purposes of the Securities Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement. The Second Closing Warrant shall have the benefit of the Investor Rights Agreement to the extent provided therin.
7. Unexercised Existing Warrants . The parties acknowledge that, after giving effect to the Second Exercise, the Existing Warrants remain unexercised for 14,587 shares of common stock of the Company, subject to the expiration dates set forth in the documentation of the Existing Warrants. Nothing in this amendment is intended to extend any of the expiration dates of the Existing Warrants, including any expiration date that may have passed.
8. Continuing Effect . As amended by this Amendment, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment No. 1 to Securities Purchase Agreement and Investor Rights Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized signatories as of the date first indicated above.

The number of Shares and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided herein, and all references to “Common Stock,” “Shares” and “Exercise Price” herein shall be deemed to include any such adjustment or series of adjustments.
3. Exercise of Warrant; Term .
(A) Subject to Section 2, the right to purchase the Shares represented by this Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part by the Holder, at any time or from time to time, but in no event later than the Expiration Time, by (A) the surrender of this Warrant and Notice of Exercise annexed hereto, duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the principal executive office of the Company located at the address set forth in Section 19(a) hereto (or such other office or agency of the Company in the United States as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company), and (B) payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares thereby purchased by tendering in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company. If the Holder does not exercise this Warrant in its entirety, the Holder will be entitled to receive from the Company within a reasonable time, and in any event not exceeding three business days, a new warrant in substantially identical form for the purchase of that number of Shares equal to the difference between the number of Shares subject to this Warrant and the number of Shares as to which this Warrant is so exercised.
(B) This Warrant may be exercised at such time by means of a “cashless exercise,” whereupon the surrender of this Warrant and Notice of Exercise annexed hereto, duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the principal executive office of the Company located at the address set forth in Section 19(a) hereto (or such other office or agency of the Company in the United States as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company), the Company will issue the number of Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = Market Price of the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the date of exercise;
(B) = the Exercise Price; and
(X) = the number of Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised.
(C) To the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, the Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or entity or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other person or entity of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person or entity, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Shares. 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 certificates representing Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
4. Issuance of Shares; Authorization . Certificates for Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will be issued in the name of Holder or and will be delivered to Holder or such named Person or Persons within a reasonable time after the date on which this Warrant has been duly exercised in accordance with the terms of this Warrant. The Company hereby represents and warrants that any Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 will be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than liens or charges created by the Holder, income and franchise taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of the Warrant or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Shares may not be actually delivered on such date. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the exercise of this Warrant, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at any time. The Company will use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Shares may be issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation or of any requirement of any securities exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded, if any. Upon agreement of the Company and Holder, in lieu of issuing certificates evidencing Shares, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue such Shares in book-entry form.
5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip . No fractional Shares or scrip representing fractional Shares shall be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional Share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the date of exercise less the pro-rated Exercise Price for such fractional share.
6. No Rights as Shareholder . This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the date of exercise hereof.
7. Charges, Taxes and Expenses . Issuance of certificates for Shares to the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant 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 certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company.
8. Transfer/Assignment . This Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon the books of the Company by the registered holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney to any Affiliate of such registered holder, and a new warrant shall be made and delivered by the Company, of the same tenor and date as this Warrant but registered in the name of one or more transferees, upon surrender of this Warrant, duly endorsed, to the office or agency of the Company described in Section 3. All expenses (other than stock transfer taxes) and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the new warrants pursuant to this Section 8 shall be paid by the Company.
9. Exchange and Registry of Warrant . This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the Company, for a new warrant or warrants of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same aggregate number of Shares. The Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and address of the Holder as the registered holder of this Warrant. This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange or exercise in accordance with its terms, at the office of the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such registry.
10. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant . Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of a bond, indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same aggregate number of Shares as provided for in such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.
11. 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 day that is a business day.
12. Adjustments and Other Rights . The Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided , that if more than one subsection of this Section 12 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 12 so as to result in duplication:
(A) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations . If the Company shall (i) declare and pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, in each such case, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder after such date shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant after such date had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.
(B) Certain Repurchases of Common Stock . If the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of Common Stock, then, in each such case, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12(B) to the contrary, in no event shall any adjustment be made pursuant to this Section 12(B) which would result in an increase to the Exercise Price or a decrease in the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
(C) Business Combinations . In the event of any Business Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock referred to in Section 12(A)), then, in each such case, the Holder’s right to receive Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be converted into the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) which the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification; and in each such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to the Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant in exchange for any shares of stock or other securities or property pursuant to this paragraph. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant following the consummation of such Business Combination, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the consideration that the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise shall be deemed to be the types and amounts of consideration received by the majority of all holders of the shares of Common Stock that affirmatively make an election (or of all such holders if none make an election).
(D) Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments . All calculations under this Section 12 shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 12 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or 1/10th of a share of Common Stock, or more.
(E) Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments . In any case in which the provisions of this Section 12 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Holder of this Warrant exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such Holder any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock; provided , however , that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder’s right to receive such additional shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
(F) Other Events . For so long as the Holder holds this Warrant or any portion thereof, if any event occurs as to which the provisions of this Section 12 are not strictly applicable or, if strictly applicable, would not, in the good faith judgment of the Board, fairly and adequately protect the purchase rights of the Warrants in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board shall make such adjustments in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, as shall be reasonably necessary, in the good faith opinion of the Board, to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid. The Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall not be adjusted in the event of a change in the par value of the Common Stock or a change in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company.
(G) Statement Regarding Adjustments . Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 12, the Company shall forthwith file at the principal office of the Company a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in effect and the number of Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by mail, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder at the address appearing in the Company’s records.
(H) Notice of Adjustment Event . In the event that the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section 12 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 12 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall give notice to the Holder, in the manner set forth in Section 12(G), which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 15 days prior to the taking of such proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action.
(I) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment . As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory and other applicable national securities exchange or shareholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock that the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 12.
(J) Adjustment Rules . Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 12 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur.
13. No Impairment . The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder.
14. Governing Law . This Warrant will be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State. Each of the Company and the Holder agrees (a) to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in the State of California for any civil action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) that notice may be served upon the Company at the address in Section 18 below and upon the Holder at the address for the Holder set forth in the registry maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 9 hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and the Holder hereby unconditionally waives trial by jury in any civil legal action or proceeding relating to the Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby .

16. Amendments . This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
17. Prohibited Actions . The Company agrees that it will not take any action which would entitle the Holder to an adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant, together with all shares of Common Stock then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants, conversion and other rights, would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by its Articles of Incorporation.
