Item 1.01       Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On November 7, 2017, we entered into subscription agreements with investors (the “Subscription Agreement”), under which we agreed to issue and sell in the aggregate 725,000 shares of common stock to the investors at $0.60 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $435,000. $180,000 of the aggregate purchase price will be paid in cash and $255,000 will be in consideration for the cancellation of debt incurred by the Company.

 

We expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds of $170,000 after deducting estimated expenses related to the registered direct offering in the amount of approximately $10,000. We intend to use the net cash proceeds from this offering for working capital.

 

The closing of the registered direct offering is expected to take place on November 9, 2017. The Subscription Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by us and customary conditions to closing.

 

The shares of common stock are being offered and sold to the public under our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-215834) initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) declared effective on February 8, 2017 (the “Registration Statement”), and a prospectus supplement relating to the registered direct offering will be filed with the Commission.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Subscription Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Subscription Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

 

This report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements related to our future activities, or future events or conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performances and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those risks discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other documents we file from time to time with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements speak only by the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report, except as required by law.

 

The prospec tus supplement relating to the offering has been filed with the Commission and is available on the Commission’s web site at http://www.sec.gov.

 

This report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, and these securities cannot be sold in any state or jurisdiction in which this offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state or jurisdiction. Any offer will be made only with a prospectus, including a prospectus supplement, forming a part of the effective registration statement.

For the purpose of rendering this opinion, we examined originals or copies of such documents as deemed to be relevant. In conducting our examination, we assumed, without investigation, the genuineness of all signatures, the correctness of all certificates, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted as certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies, and the accuracy and completeness of all records made available to us by the Company. In addition, in rendering this opinion, we assumed that the Common Stock, will be offered in the manner and on the terms identified or referred to in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, including all supplements and amendments thereto.

 

Our opinion is limited solely to matters set forth herein. The law covered by the opinions expressed herein is limited to the federal law of the United States, and laws of the State of California.

 

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, after giving due regard to such issues of law as we deemed relevant, and assuming that the Registration Statement remains effective, and the Base Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement delivery requirements with respect thereto, fulfill all of the requirements of the Securities Act throughout all periods relevant to the opinion, we are of the opinion that the Common Stock has been duly authorized for issuance and, when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with and in the manner described in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement, the Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
