| Item 3.02 | Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities. |
On September 22, 2021, Bright Mountain Media, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Share Issuance Settlement with Spartan Capital Securities, LLC (“Spartan”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue a total of 10,398,700 of its common stock (the “Shares”) to seventy-five accredited investors who participated in the Company’s Private Placement Offering, which began in November 2019 and was completed in August 2020 (the “Private Placement”).
As previously disclosed, under the terms of Private Placement, if the Company did not file a listing application of its common stock on the NYSE American Exchange within an agreed time period after the Company had received at least $1,500,000 of net proceeds, contemplated by the Placement Agent Agreement (the “Listing Application Deadline”) and obtained listing approval from the NYSE American within a 120 days from the Listing Application Deadline the Company would issue to each Investor in such Offering an additional share of common stock provided that if the Listing was not obtained by Listing Approval Deadline, the Listing Approval Deadline would be extended for so long and to the extent that the Company could demonstrate to Spartan’s reasonable satisfaction that it has used and continuing to use good faith efforts to obtain Listing Approval.
In order to avoid protracted and expensive litigations as to whether the Company was obligated to issue the Shares to the private placement investors, and without admitting or denying that the Company had any such obligation, the Company has agreed to issue the Shares to the private placement investors as set forth above.
The Shares to be issued are being issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of The Securities Act of 1933.
A copy of the Shares Issuance Agreement dated September 22, 2021 between the Company and Spartan is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
