  (1) The company is offering up to 1,332,149 shares of common stock, plus up to 266,430 additional shares of common stock eligible to be issued as bonus shares (the “Bonus Shares”) to investors based upon a whether an investor is entitled to the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus (f/k/a StartEngine OWNers Bonus) (the “StartEngine Venture Club Bonus”), the amount of their investment, and whether the investor is an existing stockholder, as described in more detail in this Offering Circular.  No additional consideration will be received by the company for the issuance of Bonus Shares and the company will absorb the cost of the issuance of the Bonus Shares.  See “Plan of Distribution” for further details.

 

  (2) The company has engaged StartEngine Primary LLC (“StartEngine Primary”) to act as an underwriter of this offering as set forth in “Plan of Distribution” and its affiliate StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc. to perform administrative and technology-related functions in connection with this offering. The company will pay a cash commission of 4.5% to StartEngine Primary on sales of the common stock, and the company will issue StartEngine Primary a number of shares of common stock equal to 1% of the common stock sold through StartEngine Primary (excluding Bonus Shares). The company will also pay a $20,000 advance fee for reasonable accountable out of pocket expenses actually anticipated to be incurred by StartEngine Primary. Any unused portion of this fee not actually incurred by StartEngine Primary will be returned to the company. FINRA fees will be paid by the company. This does not include processing fees paid directly to StartEngine Primary by investors as discussed in footnote 4 below.  

 

  (3) Does not include effective discount that would result from the issuance of Bonus Shares. See “Plan of Distribution” for further details.  

 

  (4) Investors will be required to pay directly to StartEngine Primary a processing fee equal to 3.5% of the investment amount at the time of the investors’ subscription (excluding Bonus Shares). See “Plan of Distribution” for additional discussion of this processing fee. Assuming the offering is fully subscribed (excluding Bonus Shares), investors would pay StartEngine Primary total processing fees of $525,000. This amount is included in the Total Maximum offering amount since it counts towards the rolling 12-month maximum offering amount that the company is permitted to raise under Regulation A. However, it is not included in the gross proceeds received by the company.

 

  (5) We may issue up to 266,430 Shares eligible to be issued as Bonus Shares for no additional consideration, assuming that 100% of investors achieve the highest level of Bonus Shares and all promotional shares are issued. The value of the non-cash consideration assuming the maximum Bonus Shares are issued would be $3,450,000. For more information on Bonus Shares, see the “Plan of Distribution.” Assuming this Offering is fully subscribed and the maximum number of Bonus Shares are issued, the effective purchase price per share, excluding the cash value of the Bonus Shares, would be, $9.38 per share.

 

  (6) The proceeds to the issuer include the cash value of (a) bonus shares assuming the maximum number of bonus shares are issued in the offering, and (b) shares to be issued to StartEngine Primary as a commission, assuming the offering is fully subscribed.

 

 

 

 

The company expects that the amount of expenses of the offering that it will pay will be approximately $100,000, not including commissions, state filing fees or marketing expenses.

 

The offering will terminate at the earlier of: (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount has been sold (ii) the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the company in its sole discretion or (iii) the date that is three years from this offering being qualified by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).

 

The company has engaged Bryn Mawr Trust Company of Delaware as agent to hold any funds that are tendered by investors. The offering is being conducted on a best-efforts basis. The company may undertake one or more closings on a rolling basis. After each closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the company. After the initial closing of this offering, we expect to hold closings on at least a monthly basis.

SUMMARY

 

This Summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this Offering Circular and does not contain all the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in the common stock, you should carefully read this entire Offering Circular, including our financial statements and related notes. You should consider among other information, the matters described under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

The Company

 

We are an innovative healthcare company focused on advances in wound care, dermatology, and infectious disease. We were founded on the personal journey of our founder who suffered from a recurring, debilitating infection that required multiple surgeries and defied conventional treatments. Driven to find a solution, we developed a groundbreaking mixing technology publicly referred to as PermaFusion (https://vimeo.com/346442114). Using PermaFusion, he stably and permanently suspended polar, water-soluble ingredients in an oil carrier without an emulsifier. He employed this mixing process to develop a formula that cured his condition. This formula came to be known internally as GX-03 and externally as Hexagen.

 

Beyond its platform mixing technology, which may be used to create additional formulas, Hexagen has become our core asset. It has over 200,000 human applications and serves as a primary or secondary component in a majority of our current products and pipeline products. We use our proprietary processes, technologies, and know-how to create, test, and obtain regulatory approval for our products with the goal of licensing such products to commercial partners. We are not currently engaged in the sales, marketing and/or commercialization of our products to the public. Instead we , are focused on product development and establishing partnerships with companies that have existing sales infrastructure to market and sell our products. We may, however, directly market and sell our products in the future.

Rights and Preferences of Common Stock

 

The company is currently held entirely in common stock. The holders of common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata dividends, if any, declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds, subject to any preferential right of the holders of any preferred stock that may be authorized and issued in the future. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets that are legally available for distribution, subject to any preferential right of the holders of any preferred stock that may be authorized and issued in the future.

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share, however, the holders of common stock issued in this offering will grant an irrevocable voting proxy to our chief executive officer (the “Proxy”), that will limit their ability to vote their common stock until the occurrence of certain events specified in the proxy, none of which may ever occur. The proxy is set out in Section 6 of the Subscription Agreement which appears as Exhibit 4 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part (the “Subscription Agreement”). There exists uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce the irrevocability of the proxy. In addition, the inability of the holders of common stock issued in this offering to vote their common stock, and the provision of a voting proxy to our chief executive officer, could have an anti-takeover effect as a potential acquirer may wish to call a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of considering the removal of directors or an acquisition offer, in which case the investors would not have the right to vote in favor of the same.  See “Securities Being Offered – Voting Proxy” and “Risk Factors - Investors in our common stock will have to assign their voting rights.”

 

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, other than with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Proxy, the Proxy will not be liable for any actions he/she takes or fails to take, in his/her capacity as the Proxy, while acting in good faith. Therefore, if the Proxy takes actions or omits to take actions which investors deem to be not in their best interests, as long as such actions do not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, and the Proxy is acting in good faith, the investors would not have any recourse against the Proxy. In addition, under the Subscription Agreement, except to the extent prohibited by applicable federal and state securities laws, each investor agrees to indemnify the Proxy from all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses arising out of or in connection with any act done or omitted in the Proxy’s capacity as representative of such investor, in each case as such losses are suffered or incurred. While it is uncertain whether a court would enforce such provision, if it did, investors in this offering could have indemnification obligations to the Proxy. See “Risk Factors - Our Subscription Agreement limits the liability of the proxy and provides the proxy with certain indemnification rights against the investors.”

 

As of December 31, 2024, our officers and directors, held approximately 62% of our outstanding common stock. See “Risk Factors – Our officers and directors have voting control.”

 

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

We are not subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) because we are not registering our securities under the Exchange Act. Rather, we will be subject to the more limited reporting requirements under Regulation A, including the obligation to electronically file:

 

  annual reports (including disclosure relating to our business operations for the preceding two fiscal years, or, if in existence for less than two years, since inception, related party transactions, beneficial ownership of the issuer’s securities, executive officers and directors and certain executive compensation information, management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the issuer’s liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations, and two years of audited financial statements),

 

  semiannual reports (including disclosure primarily relating to the issuer’s interim financial statements and MD&A) and

 

  current reports for certain material events.

 

2 

 

 

In addition, at any time after completing reporting for the fiscal year in which our offering statement was qualified, if the securities of each class to which this offering statement relates are held of record by fewer than 300 persons and offers or sales are not ongoing, we may immediately suspend our ongoing reporting obligations under Regulation A.

 

If and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as an issuer with less than $1.07 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

 

  will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

  will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

  will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

  will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

  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, or MD&A; and

 

  will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

Selected Risks Associated with Our Business

 

Our business expects to be subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

Our business is dependent on the successful development, regulatory approval, and commercialization of our current products, product candidates, and future products.

Clinical trials and preclinical studies are expensive, time-consuming, difficult to design and implement, and involve uncertain outcomes.

Changes in methods of product manufacturing or formulation may result in additional costs or delay.

Obtaining approval of a new device or drug is lengthy, expensive and inherently uncertain.

Interruption of our supply chain of ingredients could affect our ability to produce or deliver our products and could negatively impact our business and profitability.

Our products could fail to achieve the sales projections we expect.

We have a limited operating history and there are inherent uncertainties and risks in pharmaceutical and medical device product development and commercialization.

Failure to comply with government regulations could adversely affect our business.

We may never achieve sustained profitability.

We depend on certain key personnel and must attract and retain additional talent.

Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could materially adversely affect us.

Our intellectual property could be unenforceable or ineffective.

If we are unable to adequately control the costs associated with operating our business, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects will suffer.

We face competition.

This offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis and does not require a minimum amount to be raised.

Terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact your investment.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock involves risk. In evaluating us and an investment in the common stock, careful consideration should be given to the following risk factors, in addition to the other information included in this offering circular. Each of these risk factors could materially adversely affect our business, operating results, or financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in the common stock. The following is a summary of the risk factors that we currently believe make this offering speculative or substantially risky. We are still subject to all the same risks faced by all companies in our industry, and to which all such companies in the economy are exposed. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events, and technological developments (such as cyber-security). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

 

Risks Related to The Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Business.

 

Our business is dependent on the successful development, regulatory approval, and commercialization of our current products, product candidates, and future products.

 

We currently have three FDA medical device clearances on completed products, one developed medical device product pending clearance, two developed pharmaceutical/drug candidates at the clinical stage of development, and one pharmaceutical/drug candidate in the feasibility stage of development. The success of our business, including our ability to generate any substantial revenues in the future, will depend to a significant extent on both the successful regulatory approval and commercialization of our current and future products.

 

The clinical and commercial success of these current and future products will depend upon a number of factors, including the following:

 

our ability to successfully establish manufacturing and distribution partnerships or license our products to third party companies which successfully implement and execute a marketing and sales strategy for our current and/or future products in the U.S. and internationally, whether alone or in collaboration with others;

timely completion of our clinical trials, which may be significantly slower or cost more than we currently anticipate and will depend substantially upon the performance of third-party contractors;

whether we are required by the FDA or foreign regulatory authorities to conduct additional clinical trials or other studies beyond those planned to support the approval and commercialization of our current or future products or product candidates;

acceptance of our proposed indications and primary and secondary endpoint assessments relating to the proposed indications of our current or future products or product candidates by the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities;

the prevalence, duration and severity of potential side effects or other safety issues experienced with our current or future products or product candidates;

 

4 

 

 

the timely receipt of necessary marketing approvals from the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities for our current or future products or product candidates;

achieving, maintaining and, where applicable, ensuring that our third-party contractors achieve and maintain compliance with our contractual obligations and with all regulatory requirements applicable to Hexagen or any of our current or future products or product candidates

the ability of third parties upon which we rely to manufacture clinical trial and commercial supplies of Hexagen or any of our current or future products or product candidates to remain in good standing with relevant regulatory authorities and to develop, validate and maintain commercially viable manufacturing processes that are compliant with Current Good Manufacturing Practice (“cGMP”);

physician and patient demand for any of our current or future products or product candidates;

our ability to establish and enforce intellectual property rights in and to any of our current or future products or product candidates;

our ability to avoid third-party patent interference, intellectual property challenges or intellectual property infringement claims; and

the ability to raise any additional required capital on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

Further, competitors who are developing competing products that have a similar mechanism of action may experience problems with their products that could indicate or result in class-wide problems or additional requirements that would potentially harm our business. Due to these risks and uncertainties, we cannot provide assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue through the sale of our current or future products or product candidates to achieve or maintain profitability.

 

Clinical trials and preclinical studies are expensive, time-consuming, difficult to design and implement, and involve uncertain outcomes.

 

Our pharmaceutical and medical device candidates that are in clinical development or preclinical studies will require, as applicable, extensive clinical testing before achieving regulatory approval in the form of a medical device clearance or new drug approval (“NDA”), or other similar application for regulatory approval, as an application for marketing authorization may be submitted to any foreign jurisdictions in which we may market and sell our products. We cannot provide any assurance that we will submit applications for regulatory approval for unapproved/future products or whether any such application will be accepted for review or ultimately approved by the relevant regulatory authorities.

 

Clinical trials and preclinical studies are expensive, time-consuming, and difficult to design and implement, in part because they are subject to rigorous regulatory requirements. In addition, failures can occur at any stage of development, including clinical trials or preclinical studies, and we could encounter problems that cause us to abandon or repeat clinical trials or preclinical studies. In addition, results from clinical trials or preclinical studies may require further evaluation, delaying the next stage of development in the U.S. or another jurisdiction. Further, product candidates in later stages of clinical trials may fail to show the desired safety and efficacy results despite having successfully progressed through preclinical and earlier stage clinical trials. Such product candidates may exhibit safety signals in later stage clinical trials that they did not exhibit in earlier studies or trials. A number of companies in the pharmaceutical and medical device industry have suffered significant setbacks in, or the discontinuation of, advanced clinical trials with a product candidate due to lack of efficacy or adverse safety findings, despite having promising results in earlier trials or studies. Likewise, the results of early clinical trials or preclinical studies of our product candidates may not be predictive of the results of current or future development programs. There can also be no assurance that the results of studies conducted by collaborators or other third parties with similar product candidates in similar indications will be viewed favorably or indicative of our own future trial results.

 

If we experience delays in the commencement or completion of our clinical trials, or if we terminate a clinical trial prior to completion, the commercial prospects of our product candidates could be harmed, and our ability to generate product revenue from any of our future products, if approved, may be delayed. In addition, any delays in our clinical trials could increase our costs, cause a decline in our share price, slow down the approval process, and jeopardize our ability to commence product commercialization and generate revenue from said future products. Any of these occurrences may harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause or lead to a termination or suspension of, or delay in the commencement or completion of clinical trials may also ultimately lead to the denial of regulatory approval of our product candidates. We may make formulation or manufacturing changes to our product candidates, in which case we may need to conduct additional preclinical or clinical studies to bridge our modified product candidates to earlier versions. Any delays to our clinical trials that occur as a result could shorten any period during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize our product candidates and our competitors may be able to bring product candidates to market before we do, and the commercial viability of our product candidates could be significantly reduced.

 

5 

 

 

In addition, we may encounter delays or difficulties in enrolling, or be unable to enroll, a sufficient number of patients to complete any of our clinical trials for our product candidates/future products. Furthermore, even once enrolled, we may be unable to retain a sufficient number of patients to complete any of our clinical trials for these product candidates. Enrollment in our clinical trials may also be slower than we anticipate, or be stopped, leading to delays in the development timelines for our product candidates.

 

Changes in methods of product manufacturing or formulation may result in additional costs or delay.

 

As our product candidates proceed through the development process, it is common that various aspects of the development program, such as manufacturing methods, are altered along the way in an effort to optimize processes and results. Such changes carry the risk that they will not achieve these intended objectives. Any of these changes could cause product candidates to perform differently and affect the results of planned clinical trials or other future clinical trials conducted with the altered materials. Such changes may also require additional testing, FDA notification or FDA approval, or another regulatory authority’s notification or approval, as applicable, since similar requirements apply in other jurisdictions. This could delay the completion, or result in the abandonment of, clinical trials, require the conduct of bridging clinical trials, the repetition of one or more clinical trials, increase clinical trial costs, delay approval of our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues.

 

Obtaining approval of a new device or drug is lengthy, expensive, and inherently uncertain.

 

We cannot commercialize, in partnership or on our own, a future product until the appropriate regulatory authorities have reviewed and approved it. Approval by the FDA and comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities is lengthy and unpredictable, and depends upon numerous factors, including substantial discretion of the regulatory authorities. Approval policies, regulations, or the type and amount of nonclinical or clinical data necessary to gain approval may change during the course of a product candidate’s development and may vary among jurisdictions, which may cause delays in the approval or the decision not to approve an application. Obtaining marketing approval of a new drug or device is an extensive, lengthy, expensive, and inherently uncertain process, and the FDA or other non-U.S. regulatory authorities may delay, limit or deny approval of a product candidate for many reasons, including:

 

we may not be able to demonstrate that a product candidate is safe and effective as a treatment for the targeted indications to the satisfaction of the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities;

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may require additional pre-approval studies or clinical trials, which would increase costs and prolong development timelines;

the results of clinical trials may not meet the level of statistical or clinical significance required by the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities for marketing approval;

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may disagree with the number, design, size, conduct or implementation of clinical trials, including the design of proposed preclinical and early clinical trials of any future product candidates;

the third parties that we retain to conduct clinical trials may take actions outside of our control, or otherwise commit errors or breaches of protocols, that adversely impact the clinical trials and ability to obtain marketing approvals;

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may not find the data from nonclinical, preclinical studies or clinical trials sufficient to demonstrate that the clinical and other benefits of a product candidate outweigh its safety risks;

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may require additional post-marketing studies and/or patient registries for product candidates;

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may find the chemistry, manufacturing and controls data insufficient to support the quality of our product candidates;

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may identify deficiencies in the manufacturing processes or facilities of third-party manufacturers; or

the FDA or other relevant regulatory authorities may change their approval policies or adopt new regulations.

Our growth and future success depends significantly on our ability to successfully complete clinical trials for our product candidates, obtain regulatory approval for said candidates, and then successfully commercialize these products. Any inability to successfully initiate, conduct or complete clinical trials could result in additional costs to us or impair our ability to generate revenue. In addition, if we make manufacturing or formulation changes to our product candidates, we may be required to or we may elect to conduct additional nonclinical studies or clinical trials to bridge data obtained from our modified product candidates to data obtained from nonclinical and clinical research conducted using earlier versions of these product candidates. Clinical trial delays could also shorten any periods during which our products have patent protection and may allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do, which could impair our ability to successfully commercialize product candidates and may harm our business and results of operations.

 

Delays in the initiation, conduct, or completion of any clinical trial of our product candidates will increase our costs, slow down the product candidate development and approval process, and delay or potentially jeopardize our ability to receive regulatory approvals, commence product sales, and generate revenue. In addition, many of the factors that cause or lead to a delay in the commencement or completion of clinical trials may also ultimately lead to the denial of regulatory approval of our product candidates. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations and have a negative impact on the price of our common shares.

 

Interruption of our supply chain of ingredients could affect our ability to produce or deliver our products and could negatively impact our business and profitability.

 

We contract with suppliers to procure ingredients, supplies, equipment, and other materials and products. Any material interruption in our supply chain, such as material interruption of the supply of chemicals or ingredients or packaging for our products, could have a negative material impact on our business and our profitability. Disruptions could occur due to trade restrictions, such as increased tariffs or quotas, increased shipping prices, embargoes or customs restrictions, pandemics, social or labor unrest, weather or natural disasters, political disputes and military conflicts, or other potential incidents, could also have a negative material impact on our business and our profitability.

 

Our products could fail to achieve the sales projections we expect.

 

The company currently primarily relies upon the successful sales and marketing execution of commercial partners. If our products fail to achieve significant sales and acceptance in the marketplace, this could materially and adversely impact the value of your investment.

 

We have a limited operating history and there are inherent uncertainties and risks in pharmaceutical and medical device product development and commercialization.

 

We are a clinical-stage pharmaceutical and medical device company with a relatively limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our business and prospects. We were formed in April 2017, and our operations to date have primarily been limited to research, development, and out-licensing/partnering while pursuing additional indications for our technologies to similarly partner. The ability to execute on our business model and generate revenues depends on a number of factors, including our ability to:

 

successfully complete ongoing clinical trials and obtain regulatory approvals for our product candidates;

identify new out-licensing and partnership opportunities;

realize the benefits of our strategic partnerships and other collaborations;

launch commercial sales of our product candidates following regulatory approvals, whether alone or in collaboration with others, including establishing sales, marketing and distribution systems;

attract and retain experienced management teams and operational personnel to support our ongoing clinical development efforts, and successfully prepare for the commercialization of our product candidates following regulatory approvals;

initiate and maintain relationships with third-party suppliers and manufacturers and have commercial quantities of product candidates, following regulatory approvals, manufactured at acceptable cost and quality levels and in compliance with FDA and other regulatory requirements

achieve market acceptance of product candidates following regulatory approvals in the medical community and with third-party payors and consumers;

raise additional funds when needed and on terms acceptable to us;

successfully identify new product candidates through our discovery efforts and advance those product candidates into preclinical studies and clinical trials; and

maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio.

Failure to comply with government regulations could adversely affect our business.

 

We use an extensive network of contract manufacturers, including chemical manufacturers and contract production manufacturers. Many of these facilities are subject to ongoing regulation, including periodic inspections by the FDA and other regulatory authorities. Possible regulatory actions for non-compliance on the part of these manufacturers could include warning letters, fines, damages, injunctions, civil penalties, recalls, seizures of our products, and criminal prosecution. These actions could result in, among other things, substantial modifications to our business practices and operations, refunds, recalls, or seizures of our products, and a total or partial shutdown of production in one or more of our facilities while we or our suppliers remedy the alleged violation, and/or withdrawals or suspensions of current products from the market. Any of these events could disrupt our business and have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

After our products receive regulatory approval or clearance, we, and our suppliers, distributors, licensee and other partners remain subject to the periodic inspection of our plants and facilities, review of production processes, and testing of our products to confirm that we are in compliance with all applicable regulations and claims. For example, the FDA conducts ongoing inspections to determine whether our record keeping, production processes and controls, personnel and quality control are in compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice regulations, the Quality System Regulation, and other FDA regulations. Adverse findings during regulatory inspections may result in the implementation of Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies programs, completion of government-mandated post marketing clinical studies, and government enforcement action relating to labeling, advertising, marketing and promotion, as well as regulations governing manufacturing controls noted above.

 

Other Business Risks

 

We may never achieve sustained profitability.

 

Investment in medical product development is highly speculative because it entails substantial upfront capital expenditures and significant risk that a product candidate will fail to gain regulatory approval and/or become commercially viable. Additionally, while we have achieved regulatory clearances on medical devices, we cannot guarantee the success of our existing or future commercial partners on whom we do and intend to rely for commercialization. We cannot estimate with precision the extent of our future losses due to the expensive nature of drug trials and unpredictable commercial outcomes of our medical device partnerships. Since inception, we have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations due to our consistent focus on continuing research and development to expand indications and market opportunities.

 

We may never be able to successfully commercialize our product candidates. Even when/if approved, our product candidates may not generate meaningful product revenues or enable us to achieve or maintain profitability. It is therefore possible that we will incur substantial operating losses for the foreseeable future. Our ability to generate meaningful product revenues and achieve and sustain profitability depends on our ability to complete the development of our product candidates, obtain necessary regulatory approvals for our product candidates, and manufacture and successfully market our product candidates alone or in collaboration with others. Revenues from the sale of any product candidate for which regulatory approval is obtained will be dependent, in part, upon the size of the markets in the territories for which we have or may gain regulatory approval, the accepted price for the product candidate, the ability to obtain reimbursement at any price, and the overall competitive landscape. Even if we achieve profitability from product revenues in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Our failure to achieve and sustain profitability could depress the market value of our company and impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business and pipeline, and market any product candidates following regulatory approval.

 

We depend on certain key personnel and must attract and retain additional talent.

 

Our future success depends on the efforts of key personnel and consultants. As we grow, we will need to attract and hire additional employees in manufacturing, operations, clinical development, finance, legal, human resources, and other areas. Depending on the economic environment and our performance, we may not be able to locate or attract qualified individuals for such positions when we need them. We may also make hiring mistakes, which can be costly in terms of resources spent in recruiting, hiring, and investing in the incorrect individual and in the time delay in locating the right employee fit. If we are unable to attract, hire, and retain the right talent or make too many hiring mistakes, it is possible that our business will suffer from not having the right employees in the right positions at the right times. This could adversely impact the value of your investment.

 

8 

 

 

Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could materially adversely affect us.

 

Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may cause damage or disruption to our operations, and thus could have a strong negative effect on us. Our business operations are subject to interruption by natural disasters, fire, power shortages, pandemics, and other events beyond our control. Such events could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver our products to our customers and could decrease demand for our products.

 

Our intellectual property could be unenforceable or ineffective.

 

One of our most valuable assets is our intellectual property. We currently hold 10 issued United States patents, various US pending patents, 2 issued international patents, and several trademarks. We also have various trade secrets, including, but not limited to, proprietary mixing processes and compositions, including trade secrets covering our core formula. Competitors may misappropriate or violate the rights owned by us. While we intend to vigorously protect our intellectual property portfolio from such violations and have previously achieved success in such defenses, the costs of protection may be costly. As is often seen in such businesses, we are currently in a dispute with an individual attempting to achieve patent claims that may overlap with one or more of our issued patents. See OUR BUSINESS – Litigation.

 

In addition, companies, organizations, or individuals, including competitors, may hold or obtain patents, trademarks, or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit, or interfere with our ability to market or sell our products, which would make it more difficult for us to operate our business. Companies holding patents or other intellectual property rights may bring suits alleging infringement of such rights. If we are determined to have infringed upon a third party’s intellectual property rights, we may be required to cease selling one or more of our products, pay damages, seek a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms or at all, and/or establish and maintain alternative branding for our business. We may also need to file lawsuits to protect our intellectual property rights from infringement from third parties, which could be expensive, time consuming, and distract management’s attention from our core operations.

 

If we are unable to adequately control the costs associated with operating our business, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects will suffer.

 

If we are unable to maintain a sufficiently low level of costs for operating our business, our operating results, gross margins, business, and prospects could be materially and adversely impacted. Many of the factors that impact our operating costs are beyond our control. If we are unable to keep our operating costs aligned with the level of revenues we generate and/or capital obtained via financing(s), our operating results, business and prospects will be harmed.

 

We face competition.

 

Many of our competitors include large pharmaceutical and medical device companies which have substantially greater financial, research and development, sales, marketing, distribution, and other resources, and have been in business longer with greater brand recognition. Their greater capabilities in these areas may enable them to compete more effectively on the basis of price, more quickly develop new products, and more easily withstand increasing costs.

 

Risks Related to the Offering of our Common Stock.

 

This offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis and does not require a minimum amount to be raised.

 

We are offering common stock in the amount of up to $15,000,000 in this offering, but may sell much less. The Offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis and does not require a minimum amount to be raised. If we are not able to raise sufficient funds, we may not be able to fund our operations as planned, and our growth opportunities may be materially adversely affected. Even if we raise the maximum amount we are seeking in this offering, we may need additional funds in the future in order to grow, and if we cannot raise those funds for whatever reason, including reasons outside our control, such as another significant downturn in the economy, we may not survive.

 

9 

 

 

We are offering Bonus Shares, which is effectively a discount on our stock price, to some investors who purchase the Common Stock in this Offering.

 

Certain investors who purchase Common Stock in this Offering are entitled to receive additional shares of Common Stock (the “Bonus Shares”) that effectively provide a discount on price based on the amount invested. The number of Bonus Shares will be determined by the amount of money they invest in this Offering, and by the status of the investor as a current stockholder, or as an investor eligible to receive the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus. These categories are cumulative and an investor will be eligible for any category for which they qualify. Bonus Shares will effectively act as a discount to the price at which the Company is offering its stock. For more details, including all of the Bonus Shares being offered, see Plan of Distribution. Consequently, the value of shares of investors who pay the full price or are entitled to a smaller amount of Bonus Shares in this Offering will be immediately diluted by investments made by investors entitled to the discount, who will pay less for their stake in the company.

 

Terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact your investment.

 

Even if we are successful in this offering, we may need to engage in common equity, debt, or preferred stock financings in the future. Your rights and the value of your investment in the common stock could be reduced. Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impact operating results. Preferred stock could be issued in series from time to time with such designations, rights, preferences, and limitations as needed to raise capital. The terms of preferred stock could be more advantageous to those investors than to the holders of common stock, including, but not limited to, having dividend and liquidation preferences. In addition, if we need to raise more equity capital from the sale of equity securities, institutional or other investors may negotiate terms at least as, and possibly more, favorable than the terms of your investment.

 

We are parties to a Share Purchase Agreement with GEM Global Yield LLC SCS and GEM Yield Bahamas Limited (collectively, “GEM”) which appears as Exhibit 6.2 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part. Under the share purchase agreement, GEM committed to purchasing up to $75,000,000 in shares of our common stock, subject to certain conditions, including our listing on a public securities exchange. If our shares are listed on a public exchange and we exercise our rights to draw down capital pursuant to the share purchase agreement, it could result in dilution to existing shareholders. Shares sold to GEM under the drawdown provisions are priced at 90% of the average daily closing price over a 15-day period with a ‘floor’ price set by the company, potentially resulting in shares being issued at a discount to the market price. Additionally, GEM will receive a warrant granting the right to purchase common stock equal to 4% of our fully diluted shares immediately following a public listing, which could further dilute existing shareholders. Should we publicly list, we are also obligated to pay GEM a commitment fee of up to $750,000, either in cash or freely tradable shares, and additional shares may need to be issued if the initial issuance does not fully satisfy the fee. These provisions may result in the issuance of a significant number of shares, adversely affecting the market price and diluting the ownership interests of existing shareholders.

 

There is currently no public trading market for our common stock.

 

There is no public market for our Shares. Until our Shares are listed on an exchange, if ever, you may not sell your Shares unless the buyer meets the applicable suitability for a transfer and minimum purchase standards. Therefore, it will be difficult for you to sell your Shares promptly or at all. If you are able to sell your Shares, you may have to sell them at a substantial discount to the price you paid for the Shares.

 

Investors in our common stock in this offering will assign their voting rights.

 

The holders of common stock issued in this offering will grant an irrevocable voting proxy to our chief executive officer (the “Proxy”), that will limit their ability to vote their common stock until the occurrence of certain events specified in the proxy, which may never occur. The inability of the holders of common stock issued in this offering to vote their common stock, and the provision of a voting proxy to our chief executive officer, could have an anti-takeover effect as a potential acquirer may wish to call a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of considering the removal of directors or an acquisition offer, in which case the investors would not have the right to vote in favor of the same.

 

10 

 

 

Our Subscription Agreement limits the liability of the proxy.

 

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, other than with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Proxy, the Proxy will not be liable for any actions he/she takes or fails to take, in his/her capacity as the Proxy, while acting in good faith. Therefore, if the Proxy takes actions or omits to take actions which investors deem to be not in their best interests, as long as such actions do not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, and the Proxy is acting in good faith, the investors would not have any recourse against the Proxy.

 

Our Subscription Agreement provides the proxy with certain indemnification rights against the investors

 

Under the Subscription Agreement, except to the extent prohibited by applicable federal and state securities laws, each investor agrees to indemnify the Proxy from all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses arising out of or in connection with any act done or omitted in the Proxy’s capacity as representative of such investor, in each case as such losses are suffered or incurred. While it is the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission that such indemnification is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable, and it is uncertain whether a court would enforce such provision, if it did, investors in this offering could have indemnification obligations to the Proxy.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer has voting control.

 

Upon the closing of this offering, assuming this offering is fully subscribed and the maximum number of bonus shares are issued, and including, all shares of common stock for which our Chief Executive Officer shall have the right to vote pursuant to voting proxies, our Chief Executive Officer shall hold over 68% of the voting power of the Company on a fully diluted basis. As a result, he has control of our management and affairs and most matters requiring stockholder approval, including, but not limited to, the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership and voting power could have an anti-takeover effect as a potential acquirer may wish to call a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of considering the removal of directors or an acquisition offer, in which case the investors would not have the right to vote in favor of the same.

 

The subscription agreement has a forum selection provision that requires disputes be resolved in state or federal courts in the State of California.

 

In order to invest in this offering, investors agree to resolve disputes arising under the subscription agreement in state or federal courts located in the State of California, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the agreement. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. We believe that the exclusive forum provision applies to claims arising under the Securities Act, but there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a provision in this context. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. You will not be deemed to have waived the company’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. This forum selection provision may limit your ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us. Although we believe the provision benefits us by limiting our litigation costs, to the extent it is enforceable, the forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes, may increase investors’ costs of bringing suit and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. Alternatively, if a court were to find the provision inapplicable to, or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the subscription agreement.

 

Investors in this offering will be bound by the subscription agreement, which includes a provision under which investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against the company arising out of or relating to the agreement, including any claims made under the federal securities laws. By signing the agreement, the investor warrants that the investor has reviewed this waiver with his or her legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives the investor’s jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel.

 

11 

 

 

If we opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, we believe that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of California, which governs the agreement, by a federal or state court in the State of California. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision, courts will generally consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. We believe that this is the case with respect to the subscription agreement. You should consult legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before entering into the subscription agreement.

 

Using a credit card to purchase shares may impact the return on your investment.

 

Investors in this offering have the option of paying for their investment with a credit card. Transaction fees charged by your credit card company (which can reach 5% of transaction value if considered a cash advance) and interest charged on unpaid card balances (which can reach almost 25% in some states) add to the effective purchase price of the shares you buy and would be in addition to the StartEngine Primary processing fee. See “Plan of Distribution.” The cost of using a credit card may also increase if you do not make the minimum monthly card payments and incur late fees. These increased costs may reduce the return on your investment. The SEC’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy issued an Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled: Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which explains these and other risks you may want to consider before using a credit card to pay for your investment.

 

You must keep records of your investment for tax purposes.

 

As with all investments in securities, if you sell the common stock, you will probably need to pay tax on the long or short-term capital gains that you realize if you make a profit, and record any loss to apply it to other taxable income. If you do not have a regular brokerage account, or your regular broker will not hold the common stock for you (and many brokers refuse to hold Regulation A securities for their customers), there will be nobody keeping records for you for tax purposes and you will have to keep your own records, and calculate the gain on any sales of the stock you sell. If you fail to keep accurate records or accurately calculate any gain on any sales of the stock, you may be subject to tax audits and penalties.

 

DILUTION

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control, or earnings of the common stock an investor owns.

 

Immediate dilution

 

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the company. Occasionally, strategic partners are also interested in investing at an early stage. When the company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders, early employees, or investors from prior financings, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because each share of the same type is worth the same amount, and you paid more for your shares than earlier investors did for theirs. Dilution may also be caused by pricing securities at a value higher than book value or expenses incurred in the offering.

 

The following table demonstrates the price that new investors are paying for their common stock with the effective cash price paid by existing stockholders. The table presents shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception, which gives investors a better picture of what they will pay for their investment compared to our insiders and prior investors, than just including such transactions for the last 12 months, which is what the Commission requires.

Future dilution

 

Another important way of looking at dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into shares of common stock. In other words, when the company issues more securities, the percentage of the company that you own will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. You will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another crowdfunding round, a venture capital round, or angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (e.g. convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.

 

If we decide to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if the company offers dividends, and most early stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the company).

 

The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors mostly occurs when the company sells more shares, or other equity securities in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. An example of how this might occur is as follows (numbers are for illustrative purposes only):

 

  In May 2023, Ben invests $20,000 in shares that represent 2% of a company valued at $1 million.

 

  In December 2023, the company is doing very well and sells $5 million in shares to venture capitalists on a valuation (before the new investment) of $10 million. Ben now owns only 1.3% of the company but his stake is worth $200,000.

 

  In May 2024, the company has run into serious problems and, in order to stay afloat, it raises $1 million at a valuation of only $2 million (the “down round”).  Ben now owns only 0.89% of the company and his stake is worth only $26,660.

 

This type of dilution might also happen upon conversion of convertible notes, stock options, or warrants into shares. While the company currently has no outstanding convertible notes, typically, the terms of convertible notes issued by early-stage companies provide that in the event of another round of financing, the holders of the convertible notes get to convert their notes into equity at a “discount” to the price paid by the new investors, i.e., they get more shares than the new investors would for the same price. Additionally, convertible notes may have a “price cap” on the conversion price, which effectively acts as a share price ceiling. Either way, the holders of the convertible notes get more shares for their money than new investors. In the event that the financing is a “down round,” the holders of the convertible notes will dilute existing equity holders, and even more than the new investors do because they get more shares for their money.

We are parties to a Share Purchase Agreement with GEM Global Yield LLC SCS and GEM Yield Bahamas Limited (collectively, “GEM”) which could result in the issuance of a significant number of shares upon and/or after a public listing, which could result in dilution of the ownership interests of our stockholders. See “Risk Factors - Terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact your investment.”

 

If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of our capital stock or expecting each share of common stock to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of the common stock can decrease by actions taken by us. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Plan of Distribution

 

The company is offering up to 1,332,149 Shares, plus up to 266,430 additional Shares eligible to be issued as Bonus Shares to investors based upon whether an investor is entitled to the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus, the amount of their investment, whether the investor is an existing stockholder, and whether the investor made a non-binding indication of interest, as described in this Offering Circular. No additional consideration will be received by the company for the issuance of Bonus Shares and the company will absorb the cost of the issuance of the Bonus Shares.

Escrow Agent

 

We have entered into an Escrow Services Agreement with Bryn Mawr Trust Company of Delaware LLC (the “Escrow Agent”), which can be found in Exhibit 8 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is a part. Investor funds will be held by the Escrow Agent pending closing or termination of the offering. All subscribers will be instructed by us or our agents to transfer funds by wire, credit or debit card, or ACH transfer directly to the escrow account established for this offering. We may terminate the offering at any time for any reason at our sole discretion. Investors should understand that acceptance of their funds into escrow does not necessarily result in their receiving shares; escrowed funds may be returned.

 

The Escrow Agent is not participating as an underwriter, placement agent or sales agent of this offering and will not solicit any investments, recommend our securities, distribute this Offering Circular or other offering materials to investors or provide investment advice to any prospective investor, and no communication through any medium, including any website, should be construed as such. The use of the Escrow Agent’s technology should not be interpreted and is not intended as an endorsement or recommendation by it of us or this offering. All inquiries regarding this offering or escrow should be made directly to us.

 

For its services, the Escrow Agent will receive an escrow cash management fee in the amount of $500.00 per year.

No minimum Offering Amount

 

The shares being offered will be issued in one or more closings. No minimum number of shares must be sold before a closing can occur. Potential investors should be aware that there can be no assurance that any other funds will be invested in this offering other than their own funds. See “Risk Factors - This offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis and does not require a minimum amount to be raised.”

 

Investors’ Tender of Funds

 

After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the Commission, we will accept tenders of funds to purchase whole shares. We will conduct multiple closings on investments (so not all investors will receive their shares on the same date). Each time we accept funds transferred from the Escrow Agent is defined as a “Closing.” The funds tendered by potential investors will be held by the Escrow Agent and will be transferred to us at each Closing.

 

Subscription Procedures

 

After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the Commission, the company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Shares. The company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their shares on the same date). Investors may subscribe by tendering funds via wire, credit or debit card, or ACH only, checks will not be accepted, to the escrow account to be setup by the Escrow Agent. Tendered funds will remain in escrow until a closing has occurred. StartEngine Crowdfunding will assist with the facilitation of credit and debit card payments through the Online Platform. The company estimates that processing fees for credit card subscriptions will be approximately 4% of total funds invested per transaction, although credit card processing fees may fluctuate. The company intends to pay these fees and will reimburse StartEngine Crowdfunding for transaction fees and return fees that it incurs for returns and chargebacks. The company estimates that a significant portion of the gross proceeds raised in this offering will be paid via credit card. This assumption was used in estimating the payment processing fees included in the total offering expenses set forth in “Use of Proceeds.” Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the company for its use.

 

In order to invest you will be required to subscribe to the offering via the Online Platform and agree to the terms of the offering, Subscription Agreement, and any other relevant exhibit attached thereto. Investors will be required to complete a subscription agreement in order to invest. The subscription agreement includes a representation by the investor to the effect that, if the investor is not an “accredited investor” as defined under securities law, the investor is investing an amount, including the StartEngine processing fee, that does not exceed the greater of 10% of his or her annual income or 10% of your net worth (excluding the investor’s principal residence).

 

Investor funds will be held by the Escrow Agent pending closing or termination of the offering. All subscribers will be instructed by the company or its agents to transfer funds by wire, credit or debit card, or ACH transfer directly to the escrow account established for this offering. The company may terminate the offering at any time for any reason at its sole discretion. Investors should understand that acceptance of their funds into escrow does not necessarily result in their receiving shares; escrowed funds may be returned. In the event that the company terminates the offering while investor funds are held in escrow, those funds will promptly be refunded to each investor without deduction or interest and in accordance with Rule 10b-9 under the Exchange Act.

 

Pursuant to our agreement with StartEngine Primary, the company agrees that 6% of the total funds received into escrow will be held back as a deposit hold in case of any ACH refunds or credit card chargebacks. The hold will remain in effect for 180 days following the close of the offering. 60 days after the close of the offering, 75% of the deposit hold will be released to the company. The remaining 25% will be held for the final 120 days of the deposit hold.

 

No Selling Shareholders

 

No securities are being sold for the account of security holders; all net proceeds of this offering will go to the company.

In addition to the Loyalty Bonus and Amount-Based Bonus described below under Investor Perks and Additional Bonus Shares, certain investors who are members of the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus program, who invest in this offering are entitled to 10% Bonus Shares of our Common Stock (effectively a discount on the price paid per share). For example, anyone who is a member of the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus program will receive 110 shares for every 100 shares they purchase in the offering. Fractional shares will not be distributed and share bonuses will be determined by rounding down to the nearest whole share. The general public can become members of the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus program on StartEngine’s website for $275 per year. Membership will auto renew every year. A member of the program can cancel their renewal at any time. Once the individual cancels, their membership will expire on the next anniversary of their membership. With the StartEngine Venture Club Bonus, the investor will earn 10% bonus shares on all investments they make in participating campaigns on StartEngine. StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc. will determine whether an investor qualifies as a StartEngine Venture Club member.

 

Bonus Shares and Perks

 

After subscribing for the full price for the purchased securities, certain investors in this Offering are eligible to receive additional shares of Common Stock equal to an amount that is 3% to 20% of the number of shares purchased for no additional consideration paid (“Bonus Shares”).

For purposes of clarity and by way of example, if a StartEngine Venture Club member, who is a prior investor in our Regulation CF Offering, and invests $25,000 in this offering, such investor would qualify for the StartEngine Owner’s Bonus (10% Bonus Shares), the Loyalty Bonus (3% Bonus Shares) and the Amount-Based Bonus shares (7% Bonus Shares), for an aggregate of 20% Bonus Shares.

 

TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR RECIPIENT (INCLUDING FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES) WITH RESPECT TO THE INVESTMENT PURCHASE PACKAGES ARE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INVESTOR.

Provisions of Note in Our subscription agreement

 

Exclusive Venue

 

Our subscription agreement includes a forum selection provision that requires any claim against us based on the subscription agreement not arising under the federal securities laws to be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of California. This forum selection provisions may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. We have adopted this provision to limit the time and expense incurred by our management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows our officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on our operations.

 

Jury Trial Waiver

 

The subscription agreement provides that subscribers waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us arising out of or relating to the subscription agreement, including any claim under federal securities laws. If we opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable given the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law.

OUR BUSINESS

 

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Offering Circular, including "Risk Factors," "Use of Proceeds," “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and the Financial Statements attached and the related exhibits. The various sections of this discussion contain a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this Offering Circular.

 

Introduction

 

We are an innovative healthcare company focused on advances in wound care, dermatology, and infectious disease. We were founded on the personal journey of our founder who suffered from a recurring, debilitating infection that required multiple surgeries and defied conventional treatments. Driven to find a solution, we developed a groundbreaking mixing technology publicly referred to as PermaFusion (https://vimeo.com/346442114). Using PermaFusion, he stably and permanently suspended polar, water-soluble ingredients in an oil carrier without an emulsifier. He employed this mixing process to develop a formula that cured his condition. This formula came to be known internally as GX-03 and externally as Hexagen.

 

Beyond its platform mixing technology, which may be used to create additional formulas, Hexagen has become our core asset. It has over 200,000 human applications and serves as a primary or secondary component in a majority of our current products and pipeline products. We use our proprietary processes, technologies, and know-how to create, test, and obtain regulatory approval for our products with the goal of licensing such products to commercial partners. We are not currently engaged in the sales, marketing and/or commercialization of our products to the public. Instead we , are focused on product development and establishing partnerships with companies that have existing sales infrastructure to market and sell our products. We may, however, directly market and sell our products in the future.

 

Pursuant to FDA regulations, “medical devices” are tools, machines, implants, or instruments used to diagnose or manage medical conditions without altering the body’s chemical structure. Medical devices range from simple items like bandages to complex devices like pacemakers and MRI machines. Pharmaceuticals are chemical substances designed to treat, cure, or prevent diseases by altering the body’s chemical processes, which are typically ingested, injected, or applied to the body. Examples include antibiotics, pain relievers, and antidepressants.

Hexagen

 

 

 

Our flagship formula (GX-03/Hexagen) is an ointment form product capable of being classified as both a medical device and a pharmaceutical by the FDA depending upon the indication of use. For example, Hexagen has been cleared as a medical device under FDA classification code FRO, which deems it a wound dressing for acute and chronic wounds. The company is also currently pursuing new drug approvals/indications for this same ointment formula as a treatment for moderate-severe eczema and toenail fungus. In these pending approvals/indications, the company will be asserting a chemical mechanism of action of one or more ingredients in the formula.

 

 

 

The Hexagen formula has received 510(k) pre-market clearance as a medical device to be used as a dressing for wounds and burns (K160872). The Hexagen formula has also received 510(k) pre-market clearance as a medical device to be used for the management of skin affected by irritant, radiation, and atopic dermatitis (K171191). The Hexagen formula is also employed as a coating/impregnate on a sterile gauze intended to be used on post-surgical wounds. This porous gauze combination product (“Xeal”) has also received 510(k) pre-market clearance as a medical device. We are in negotiations with a large medical device manufacturer to license Xeal for commercialization.

 

We have an additional fully-developed product/formula called “Flex” which combines Hexagen with an animal collagen in a unique, sterile powder form. Flex is pending FDA clearance for use on advanced wounds and burns and is the subject of an existing license agreement.

 

The following medical devices and pharmaceuticals incorporating the Hexagen formula are in development:

 

Product Purpose Product Development Stage Clinical Stage FDA Approval Status
GX-03/Hexagen Wounds and Burns Complete Complete Complete
GX-03/Hexagen Dermatitis Management Complete Complete Complete
Sterile Gauze Impregnated with GX-03/Hexagen Wounds and post-surgical dressing Complete Complete Complete
Sterile Collagen/Hexagen Powder Wounds and burns Complete Ongoing Ongoing
GX-03/Hexagen for Moderate-Severe Eczema Treatment of moderate-severe eczema Complete Ongoing Not yet submitted
GX-03/Hexagen for Onychomycosis Treatment of onychomycosis Complete Ongoing Not yet submitted

 

Thermostable Intranasal Vaccine

 

We are advancing vaccine delivery technologies through our proprietary suspension platform. We have partnered with IAVI.org to stabilize their live vaccine that suffers from a 4-hour room-temperature shelf life and requirement to deep freeze during transport. Leveraging our technology, we successfully suspended the vaccine in a viscous carrier that may enable intranasal delivery and significantly extend shelf lives for live vaccines. This breakthrough has already shown 6x current room-temperature stability for IAVI’s vaccine and has the theoretical potential to eliminate its need for deep freezing, dramatically increasing its accessibility in remote and resource-limited regions.

 

With three FDA clearances, a robust pipeline, and a personal story that resonates with patients and partners alike, we are uniquely positioned to transform the healthcare landscape through our model of ongoing development and commercial partnerships.

 

Industry and Competition

 

The global advanced wound care market is estimated at $18.72 billion in 2024, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.09% (https://www.marketresearchfuture.com/reports/advanced-wound-care-market-37484?utm_source=chatgpt.com). Advanced wound care products are essential for treating chronic wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and burns. Despite the market's growth, current offerings are often limited by the need for frequent application, wound toxicity, and susceptibility to microbial infiltration/colonization. Effective products that minimize risk and maximize healing rate while reducing the rate of microbial infiltration to the wound/dressing(s) would meet significant unmet needs in this space.

 

20 

 

 

The market for the treatment of eczema is estimated at $12.3 billion worldwide (https://www.factmr.com/report/4603/atopic-dermatitis-market). Moderate-severe eczema represents an estimated 40% of this market. The current drug leading the moderate-severe eczema market is Dupixent, which did over $1lB in revenue last year despite being an injectable biologic that some parents strongly disfavor.

 

The market for the treatment of onychomycosis is estimated at $3.4 billion, and the majority of patients who have onychomycosis do not seek treatment typically due to limited safe and effective options (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/regeneron-pharmaceuticals-inc-regn-reports-123217769.html). Topicals range from ~6%-18% effective (https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2014/204427s000lbl.pdf). The CDC says current topicals are ineffective (https:www.cdc.gov/fungal/nail-infections.html). The only non-topical is oral Lamisil (generic and -$5.00/month), which has a significant side effect profile and requires monthly blood tests (https://online.lexi.com/lco/medguides/625300.pdf).

 

The global vaccine market was estimated at USD $62 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.74% from 2024 to 2030 (https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/vaccine-market). Vaccines represent a crucial segment, particularly for diseases requiring robust, long-lasting immunity. However, challenges such as cold-chain logistics and limited thermostability have historically hindered access in developing countries. Innovations in thermostable, intranasal vaccines can address these issues, opening significant opportunities to improve global immunization coverage and penetrate untapped markets.

 

Employees

 

We currently have one full time and three part-time employees, with various contractors in the United States serving in manufacturing, regulatory, quality, and laboratory/clinical testing functions.

 

Government Regulation

 

We are subject to extensive federal, state, and local government regulation, including those relating to, among others, public health and safety, labeling and disclosure requirements and drug and device safety regulations. Failure to obtain or retain licenses and registrations or exemptions would adversely affect the operation of our business.

We are also subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of a disability and public accommodations in employment, which may require us to design or modify our facilities to make reasonable accommodations for disabled persons.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We have 10 issued United States patents and 2 issued international patents covering, among other things, our methods of mixing, chemical compositions and uses of such compositions.

21 

 

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We are currently a petitioner in a dispute attempting to block a pending patent application from issuing that may overlap with one or more of our issued patents. We have multiple issued patents covering the potential overlapping claims and strongly believe we will prevail. We are also discussing settlement with the applicant. Should we not settle or prevail in the current petition, we have many legal remedies available, including but not limited to, post-grant review for lack of disclosure data and/or independent corroboration of the alleged invention. We intend to vigorously defend our intellectual property and the outcome of the current petition will not affect our ability to do conduct business.

The increase in research and development expenses during the 2024 Interim Period primarily resulted from a $65,900 payment to our R&D vendor for clinical trials.

 

We had a net operating loss of $941,914 for the 2024 Interim Period, compared to a net operating loss of $1,462,115 for the 2023 Interim Period. During the 2024 Interim Period, we had $16,032 in other income attributable primarily to interest earned on our saving and other short-term investments, resulting in a net loss of $925,882 for the 2024 Interim Period. During the 2023 Interim Period, we had $4,698 in other income attributable to primarily to interest earned on our saving and other short-term investments, resulting in a net loss of $1,457,417 for the 2023 Interim Period.

SECURITIES BEING OFFERED

 

In this offering, we are offering shares of common stock to investors.

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 20,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share. As of December 31, 2024, we had 13,427,301 shares of common stock outstanding, and options to purchase an aggregate of 851,243 shares of common stock, of which 96,776 have an exercise price of $9.18 per share, 500,000 have an exercise price of $2.50 per share and 254,467 have an exercise price of $7.07 per share. We also have 348,757 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of stock options that may be granted in the future. There is also an outstanding warrant to purchase 23,810 shares of commons stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.

 

The rights of investors in the common stock are governed by our Certificate of Incorporation and the Subscription Agreement, and are described below.

 

Certificate of Incorporation

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation may be amended by our Board of Directors and by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares, to increase the number of authorized shares, and there is no limit on the number of shares that may be authorized and issued. The Board of Directors, with the approval of the holders of our common stock, by a majority vote, may also amend the Certificate of Incorporation to create one or more series of preferred stock that have rights, preferences and privileges senior to the rights, preferences and privileges of the common stock.

 

Dividends

 

The holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata dividends, if any, declared by our Board of Directors out of legally available funds, however, subject to any preferential right of the holders of any preferred stock that may be authorized and issued in the future.

 

25 

 

 

Liquidation

 

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets that are legally available for distribution, however, subject to any preferential right of the holders of any preferred stock that may be authorized and issued in the future.

 

Voting Rights

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share, however, the holders of common stock issued in this offering shall grant a voting proxy to our chief executive officer, that will limit investors’ ability to vote their common stock until the occurrence of events specified in the proxy. See “Securities Being Offered - Voting Proxy”.

 

Other Rights

 

The holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.

 

Voting Proxy

 

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the holders of common stock issued in this offering shall grant a voting proxy to our chief executive officer, that will limit investors’ ability to vote their common stock until the occurrence of events specified in the proxy, which include our initial public offering, our acquisition by another entity or a liquidation event, none of which may never happen. Such events include (a) the closing of a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 covering the offer and sale of common stock or the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 covering the common stock, (b) a transaction or series of related transactions in which common stock representing more than 50% of our outstanding voting power are acquired from our stockholders, (c) an acquisition by another entity, in which the holders of our voting securities outstanding immediately prior to such transaction, do not retain at least a majority of the total voting power represented by our outstanding voting securities or the voting securities of the other surviving or resulting entity, after such transaction, (d) a sale, exclusive license, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets, or (e) our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

 

The voting rights granted via the proxy are not limited and, include, among other things, the right to vote on the election of our directors, amendments to our organizational documents, and major corporate transactions. So long as the holder is an individual, the proxy will survive the death, incompetency and disability of the holder and, so long as the holder is an entity, the proxy will survive the merger or reorganization of the holder or any other entity holding the common stock. The proxy will also survive transfers of the common stock and shall be binding on any transferee. The proxy is granted to the person holding the title of chief executive officer, in his capacity as an officer of the company, and not in his personal capacity, and so would survive his death or removal. The chief executive officer, in his sole discretion, may assign the voting proxy to any of our future officers. The proxy is set out in Section 5 of the Subscription Agreement which appears as Exhibit 4 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part. See “Summary – Rights and Preferences of Common Stock,” “Risk Factors - Investors in our common stock will have to assign their voting rights,” and “Risk Factors - Our Subscription Agreement limits the liability of the proxy and provides the proxy with certain indemnification rights against the investors.”

 

Exclusive Venue

 

Our Subscription Agreement includes a forum selection provision that requires any claim against us based on the Subscription Agreement not arising under the federal securities laws, to be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of California. This forum selection provisions may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. We have adopted this provision to limit the time and expense incurred by management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows our officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on our operations. See “Risk Factors - The subscription agreement has a forum selection provision that requires disputes be resolved in state or federal courts in the State of California, regardless of convenience or cost to you, the investor.”

 

26 

 

 

Jury Trial Waiver

 

The subscription agreement provides that subscribers waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us arising out of or relating to the subscription agreement, including any claim under federal securities laws. If we opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable given the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law. See “Risk Factors - Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the subscription agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action under the agreement.”

 

Agreement with GEM Global Yield LLC SCS and GEM Yield Bahamas Limited

 

On December 7, 2024, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with GEM Global Yield LLC SCS and GEM Yield Bahamas Limited (collectively, “GEM”) which appears as Exhibit 6.2 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part (the “GEM Purchase Agreement”), together with a Registration Rights Agreement which appears as Exhibit 6.3 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part (the “GEM Rights Agreement” and sometimes collectively with the GEM Purchase Agreement, the “GEM Agreements”), pursuant to which GEM agreed to purchase up to $75,000,000 in shares of common stock of the Company subject to certain conditions and limitations, including, but not limited to, the registration of our common stock on a securities exchange. The principal terms of the GEM Agreements are set forth below:

 

Drawdowns: From time to time, we may issue a drawdown notice to GEM, in which case, GEM shall purchase shares of common stock at a purchase price equal to 90% of the average daily closing price for our shares for the 15 consecutive trading days commencing with the date of the draw down notice. The draw down amount requested may not exceed 300% of the average daily trading volume for the 15 trading days immediately preceding the date of the draw down notice. In addition, without a waiver from GEM, GEM shall not be required to purchase shares pursuant to any drawdown notice if, as a result of the issuance of such shares, GEM would hold over 9.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Commitment Fee: If we exercise our rights to draw down, we shall pay GEM a commitment fee of $750,000 in cash or freely tradeable common stock valued based on the market price of the shares (the “Commitment Fee Shares”). On or prior to the public listing date of the common stock, we must either deposit the full commitment fee in cash into an escrow account, or issue GEM a number of freely trading shares of common stock as calculated by dividing the Commitment Fee by the daily closing price of the shares on the listing date; provided, however if after 90 days from such public listing date, the value of the issued Commitment Fee Shares is less than the unpaid portion of the unpaid Commitment Fee, the Company must issue additional shares to cover the shortfall in value.

 

Warrant: If our shares are publicly listed on a securities exchange, we shall issue GEM a warrant, a copy of which is attached to the GEM Purchase Agreement, to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 4% of our fully diluted outstanding shares immediately following the public listing, at an exercise price equal to the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the common stock on the date of the public listing, or (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing $150 million by the total outstanding fully diluted common stock, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the GEM Purchase Agreement.

 

Private Transaction Fee. If we do not complete an initial public offering or reverse merger transaction for any reason, however, engage in a merger, acquisition, sale, share exchange or any other private business combination which results in a change of control, we must pay GEM at or prior to the closing of such transaction, 1% of the total consideration received by the Company, its stockholders and management.

 

Registration Rights: Pursuant to the GEM Rights Agreement, if the Company engages in a public listing, it shall, within 30 days file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock issued to GEM and underlying the warrant.

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements

As of June 30, 2024 (unaudited) and December 31, 2023 (audited) and

For Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited)

 

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Global Health Solutions Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics ("GHS"), was initially formed on January 6, 2015, as Global Health Solutions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. On October 12, 2018, Global Health Solutions, LLC converted to a Delaware corporation under the name Global Health Solutions, Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics. The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary Turn Consumer LLC. The consolidated financial statements of Global Health Solutions, Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics (which may be referred to as the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s headquarters are located in Westlake Village, California.

 

The Company conducts research, development and commercialization of novel medical devices, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

 

2.summary of SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” and “US GAAP”).

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include accounts of the subsidiary Turn Consumer LLC over which the Company exercises control. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company has adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash in banks. The Company’s cash is deposited in demand accounts at financial institutions that management believes are creditworthy. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents exceeded FDIC insured limits by $311,500 and $487,304, respectively.

For Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited)

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be creditworthy. Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

 

The Company does not have concentration from customers or vendors for the periods presented.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company capitalizes costs associated with obtaining patents and trademarks that have been successfully approved by the US Patent and Trademark Office. The Company amortizes intangible assets over the estimated useful life of 17 years. Trademark costs are indefinite lived.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and identifiable intangibles with finite useful lives, are periodically evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We look for indicators of a trigger event for asset impairment and pay special attention to any adverse change in the extent or manner in which the asset is being used or in its physical condition. Assets are grouped and evaluated for impairment at the lowest level of which there are identifiable cash flows, which are generally at a location level. Assets are reviewed using factors including, but not limited to, our future operating plans and projected cash flows. The determination of whether impairment has occurred is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows directly related to the assets, compared to the carrying value of the assets. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows of the assets does not exceed the carrying value of the assets, full or partial impairment may exist. If the asset carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. Fair value is determined using an income approach, which requires discounting the estimated future cash flows associated with the asset.

 

Income Taxes

 

Global Health Solutions Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics is a C corporation for income tax purposes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company records interest, net of any applicable related income tax benefit, on potential income tax contingencies as a component of income tax expense. The Company records tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return based upon the amount that is more likely than not to be realized or paid, including in connection with the resolution of any related appeals or other legal processes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes liabilities for certain unrecognized tax benefits based on the amounts that are more likely than not to be settled with the relevant taxing authority. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation for both employees and non-employees in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Based Compensation.  Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense ratably over the requisite service period, which is generally the option vesting period.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options at grant date.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled, in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenue is to be recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis laid under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identification of contract with customers, (2) determination of performance obligations, (3) measurement of the transaction price, (4) allocation of transaction price to the performance obligations, and (5) recognition of revenue when or as the company satisfies each performance obligation.

 

The company is currently in the pre-revenue stage.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments).

 

The inputs used to measure fair value are based on a hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used in valuation techniques. These levels, in order of highest to lowest priority, are described below:

 

Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2—Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date, but prior to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated through January 6, 2025, which is the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

 

3.INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Intangible asset consists of:

 

As Of  June 30, 2024   December 31, 2023 
Patent  $899,839   $894,382 
Trademark   32,958    32,859

2026   26,856 
2027   26,856

2029   26,856 
Thereafter   533,396 
Total  $667,677 

 

4.CAPITALIZATION and equity transactions

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 13,299,304 and 13,247,241 shares were issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

5.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

 

During 2018, the Company authorized a Stock Option Plan (which may be referred to as the “Plan”). The Company reserved 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the Plan, which provides for the grant of shares of stock options, stock appreciation rights, and stock awards (performance shares) to employees, non-employee directors, and non-employee consultants. The option exercise price generally may not be less than the underlying stock's fair market value at the date of the grant and generally has a term of four years. The amounts granted each calendar year to an employee or non-employee are limited depending on the type of award.

 

Stock Options

 

The Company granted stock options. The stock options were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model with a range of inputs indicated below:

 

Expected Life (Years)   10 
Risk-Free Interest Rate   4.25%
Expected Volatility   75%
Annual Dividend Yield   0%

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption for options granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States government securities appropriate for the expected term of the Company's employee stock options.

 

The expected term of employee stock options is calculated using the simplified method which takes into consideration the contractual life and vesting terms of the options.

As of June 30, 2024 (unaudited) and December 31, 2023 (audited) and

For Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited)

 

The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for options granted using the historical volatility of comparable public company's Common Stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future stock option grants, until such time that the Company’s Common Stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.

 

The dividend yield assumption for options granted is based on the Company's history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Management estimated the fair value of common stock based on recent sales to third parties. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred.

 

A summary of the Company’s stock options activity and related information is as follows:

 

Stock Options Activity  Number of
Awards
   Weighted Average
Exercise Price
   Weighted Average
Term (Years)
 
Outstanding at December 31, 2022 (Audited)   1,151,168   $14.92    -

Exercisable at June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)   754,467   $14.92    4.84 

 

Stock-based Compensation expense for the period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $344,662 and $711,889, respectively.

 

6.Warrants

 

In 2017, the Company issued warrants to purchase common units to a non-employee. Upon conversion to a corporation in 2018, the warrants were amended to purchase common stock.

 

The fair value of each warrant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and compensation expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The valuation model uses substantially the same assumptions as the share-based options except for the term of 20 years instead of 10 years. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, there were 23,810 and 23,810 warrants outstanding and expected to vest, respectively.

 

7.Lease

 

The Company has an operating lease for office space for its corporate headquarters which expires in August 2024. Monthly payments range from $3,934 to $4,291. Rent expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Outstanding lease term as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was 2 months and 8 months, respectively.

8.Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes consists of the following:

 

For The Period Ended June 30,  2024   2023 
Benefit on Net Operating Losses  $(276,283)  $(434,893)
Valuation Allowance   276,283    434,893 
Net Provision For Income Tax  $-   $- 

 

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

 

   June 30,   December 31, 
As Of  2023   2023 
Deferred Tax Asset on NOLs  $2,184,817   $1,908,534 
Valuation Allowance   (2,184,817)   (1,908,534)
Total Deferred Tax Asset  $-   $- 

 

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the federal and state net deferred tax assets, and, as a result, a full valuation allowance has been set against its net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023. The amount of the deferred tax asset to be realized could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carry-forward period are reduced or increased.

 

For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, the Company had federal cumulative net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $6,395,891, and the Company had state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $6,395,891. Utilization of some of the federal and state NOL carryforwards to reduce future income taxes will depend on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the carryforwards. The federal net operating loss carryforward is subject to an 80% limitation on taxable income, does not expire, and will carry on indefinitely.

 

The Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the consolidated financial statements if that position is more likely than not to be sustained on a tax return upon examination by the relevant taxing authority, based on the technical merits of the position. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company had no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

9.Related Party

 

There are no related party transactions for the periods presented and no balance is outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

 

10.Earnings per share

 

Earnings/loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the end of the reporting period. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, there are no differences between basic and diluted earnings per share.

 

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share as of June 30, 2024 and 2023:

 

   2024   2023 
Net Loss  $(925,882)  $(1,457,417)
           
Weighted Common Shares Outstanding   13,299,304    13,247,241 
           
Basic & Diluted Net Loss Per Share  $(0.07)  $(0.11)

 

11.Commitments and Contingencies

 

Contingencies

 

The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulations. Failure to comply with one or more of those regulations could result in fines, restrictions on its operations, or loss of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations.

 

Litigation and Claims

 

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s operations.

 

12.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for the period from June 30, 2024, through January 6, 2025, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

 

In July 2024, the Company extended the maturity of lease for office space with new maturity date set for August 2027.

 

In July 2024, the Company amended its 2018 stock option plan to decrease the authorized number of shares to be issued under the plan from 1,000,000 to 754,467.

 

In July 2024, the Company approved a new 2024 Stock Option Plan and reserved 445,533 shares of common stock to be issued under the new plan. Till the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, the Company granted 110,075 options under the new plan and cancelled 13,299 options due to death of the option holder.

 

The Company launched a Crowdfunding campaign pursuant to Regulation Crowdfunding with StartEngine as its registered platform. The Company is offering common stock with an offering price of $9.18 per share. As of January 6, 2025, the Company has raised $1,546,575 from 411 investors.

 

In December 2024, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with a certain investor for sale of common stock of up to $75,000,000 (the “Aggregate limit”) contingent upon the Company achieving a public listing of its common stock. The agreement allows the Company to put its common stock to the investor at 90% of the average daily closing prices during the draw-down pricing period and the draw down amount not exceeding 300% of the average trading volume of 15 days immediately preceding the draw down exercise date. The agreement allows the Company to put restrictions on stock sales volume by investor, prohibitions on short selling by investor and the Company being able to set a threshold ‘floor’ price during draw-down periods. On public listing date, the Company shall issue a warrant to the investor granting the right to purchase the Company’s common stock representing 4% of the total equity interest. The Company shall pay a commitment fee of 1% of the Aggregate limit either in cash or common stock under the agreement. If the Company is sold in a private transaction, a fee of 1% of the total consideration received by the Company shall be paid to the investor.

 

There have been no other events or transactions during this time which would have a material effect on these consolidated financial statements.

13.GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a net operating loss of $925,882, an operating cash outflow of $602,479, and cash & cash equivalents of $885,113, which are less than a year's worth of cash reserves as of June 30, 2024. These factors normally raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the next twelve months following the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued is dependent upon its ability to produce revenues and/or obtain financing sufficient to meet current and future obligations and deploy such to produce profitable operating results. Management has evaluated these conditions and plans to generate revenues and raise capital as needed to satisfy its capital needs. During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations through debt and/or equity financing.

 

The Company's business is dependent on successful clinical trials of its products as well as FDA clearances/approvals for its products. The Company has three FDA clearances for medical devices, two of which were obtained by the fourth quarter of 2017. After learning of high-need drug indications the core technology could service via investigator-initiated clinical trials, the Company removed these initially cleared medical devices from commercial sale to focus its efforts on achieving these higher-value drug indications. In 2020, the Company conducted human clinical trials of its foundational product as a COVID-19 therapeutic. In 2022, the Company entered into a licensing agreement for a biologic product it developed and is pending FDA approval. The Company has also packaged two of its currently FDA-cleared products for out-licensing to advanced wound care organizations with the intent to receive additional upfront and future royalty payments to aid in funding its pharmaceutical drug trials. The Company is currently in the process of raising funds to dramatically increase its drug development pipeline through expanded clinical trials for multiple disease indications and the buildout of staffing required to conduct such drug development. Failure to obtain meaningful clinical data, get further clearances/approvals from the FDA, or an inability to successfully develop license or market products could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, or operations of the Company.

 

The Company has incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flows before financing activities since inception and has primarily relied on equity financing to fund its operations and may need to continue to raise additional capital to continue operations. The Company is subject to risk associated with a company at its relatively early stage, including the need to develop, demonstrate and refine its products and services, produce successful results from clinical trials, expand its management and technical team, obtain customers upon placing products for sale and ultimately sustain its profitability. Management believes that with its plans to carry out clinical trials and obtain additional financing, it will be able to maintain operations and continue research and development for a year from the report date of these consolidated financial statements. Failure to generate sufficient revenue or obtain financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

To the Board of Directors
Global Health Solutions, Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics

Westlake Village, California

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Global Health Solutions, Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics (the “Company,”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows (collectively, the “financial statements”) for the period ending December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and the result of its operations and its cash flows for the period ending December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

As discussed in Note 14, certain conditions indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for period of twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users made on the basis of these financial statements.

 

- 1 -

 

 

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

 

· Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

· Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

 

· Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

· Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

GLOBAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS INC. DBA TURN THERAPEUTICS

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements

For The Year Ended to December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022

 

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Global Health Solutions Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics ("GHS"), was initially formed on January 6, 2015, as Global Health Solutions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. On October 12, 2018, Global Health Solutions, LLC converted to a Delaware corporation under the name Global Health Solutions, Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics. The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary Turn Consumer LLC. The consolidated financial statements of Global Health Solutions, Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics (which may be referred to as the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s headquarters are located in Westlake Village, California.

 

The Company conducts research, development and commercialization of novel medical devices, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

 

2.summary of SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” and “US GAAP”).

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include accounts of the subsidiary Turn Consumer LLC over which the Company exercises control. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company has adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidation financial statements in conformity with United States GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash in banks. The Company’s cash is deposited in demand accounts at financial institutions that management believes are creditworthy. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents exceeded FDIC-insured limits by $228,317 and $124,674, respectively.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be creditworthy. Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

For The Year Ended to December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Normal repairs and maintenance costs are charged to earnings as incurred and additions and major improvements are capitalized. The cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of, and the related depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the period of disposal and the resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to earnings.

 

Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the related asset type or term of the operating lease using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The estimated service lives for property and equipment are as follows:

 

Category  Useful Life
Machinery and Equipment   5 years
Computer Equipment   5 years

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and identifiable intangibles with finite useful lives, are periodically evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We look for indicators of a trigger event for asset impairment and pay special attention to any adverse change in the extent or manner in which the asset is being used or in its physical condition. Assets are grouped and evaluated for impairment at the lowest level of which there are identifiable cash flows, which are generally at a location level. Assets are reviewed using factors including, but not limited to, our future operating plans and projected cash flows. The determination of whether impairment has occurred is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows directly related to the assets, compared to the carrying value of the assets. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows of the assets does not exceed the carrying value of the assets, full or partial impairment may exist. If the asset carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. Fair value is determined using an income approach, which requires discounting the estimated future cash flows associated with the asset.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company capitalizes costs associated with obtaining patents and trademarks that have been successfully approved by the US Patent and Trademark Office. The Company amortizes intangible assets over the estimated useful life of 17 years. Trademark costs are indefinite-lived.

 

Income Taxes

 

Global Health Solutions Inc. dba Turn Therapeutics is a C corporation for income tax purposes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company records interest, net of any applicable related income tax benefit, on potential income tax contingencies as a component of income tax expense. The Company records tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return based upon the amount that is more likely than not to be realized or paid, including in connection with the resolution of any related appeals or other legal processes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes liabilities for certain unrecognized tax benefits based on the amounts that are more likely than not to be settled with the relevant taxing authority. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled, in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenue is to be recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis laid under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identification of contract with customers, (2) determination of performance obligations, (3) measurement of the transaction price, (4) allocation of transaction price to the performance obligations, and (5) recognition of revenue when or as the company satisfies each performance obligation.

 

Revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, which typically occurs at the following times:

 

·In-store Sales: Revenue is recognized at the point-in-time when the customer takes possession of the goods.
·Online Sales: Revenue is recognized at the point-in-time when the goods are delivered to the customer.
·Wholesale Transactions: Revenue is recognized at the point-in-time when the goods are shipped or delivered to the wholesale customer.

 

The company is currently in the pre-revenue stage.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to both employees and non-employees in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Based Compensation.  Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense ratably over the requisite service period, which is generally the option vesting period.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments).

 

The inputs used to measure fair value are based on a hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used in valuation techniques. These levels, in order of highest to lowest priority, are described below:

 

Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2—Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

Subsequent Events

 

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date, but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated through October 09, 2024, which is the date the financial statements were issued.

 

Lease Accounting

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard introduces a new lessee model that brings substantially all leases onto the balance sheets. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021.

 

We adopted the standard effective January 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective adoption method which allowed us to initially apply the new standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit. In connection with our adoption of the new lease pronouncement, we recorded a charge to retained earnings.

 

Effects of Adoption

 

We have elected to use the practical expedient package that allows us to not reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. We additionally elected to use the practical expedients that allow lessees to: (1) treat the lease and non-lease components of leases as a single lease component for all of our leases and (2) not recognize on our balance sheet leases with terms less than twelve months.

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. We lease certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses, offices, machinery and equipment, vehicles, and office equipment under operating leases. Under the new standard, operating leases result in the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent our right to use the leased asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Under the new standard, operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, upon adoption of the new standard, we used our estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available, including the lease term, as of January 1, 2022, to determine the present value of lease payments.

 

Operating lease ROU assets are adjusted for any lease payments made prior to January 1, 2022, and any lease incentives. Certain of our leases may include options to extend or terminate the original lease term. We generally conclude that we are not reasonably certain to exercise these options due primarily to the length of the original lease term and our assessment that economic incentives are not reasonably certain to be realized. Operating lease expense under the new standard is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our current finance lease obligations consist primarily of cultivation and distribution facility leases.

Prepaid and other current assets consist of the following items:

 

As of December 31,  2023   2022

6.CAPITALIZATION and equity transactions

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, 13,247,241 and 13,175,091 shares were issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

7.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

 

During 2018, the Company authorized the Stock Option Plan (which may be referred to as the “Plan”). The Company reserved 1,200,000 shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the Plan, which provides for the grant of shares of stock options, stock appreciation rights, and stock awards (performance shares) to employees, non-employee directors, and non-employee consultants. The option exercise price generally may not be less than the underlying stock's fair market value at the date of the grant and generally has a term of four years. The amounts granted each calendar year to an employee or non-employee are limited depending on the type of award.

 

Stock Options

 

The Company granted stock options. The stock options were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model with a range of inputs indicated below:

 

For The Year Ended  December 31, 2023 
Expected Life (Years)   10 
Risk-Free Interest Rate   3.95%
Expected Volatility   75%
Annual Dividend Yield   0.00%

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption for options granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States government securities appropriate for the expected term of the Company's employee stock options.

 

The expected term of employee stock options is calculated using the simplified method which takes into consideration the contractual life and vesting terms of the options.

 

The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for options granted using the historical volatility of comparable public company's Common Stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future stock option grants, until such time that the Company’s Common Stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.

 

The dividend yield assumption for options granted is based on the Company's history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Management estimated the fair value of common stock based on recent sales to third parties. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred.

 

A summary of the Company’s stock options activity and related information is as follows:

Exercisable Options at December 31, 2023   879,701   $14.92    5.84 

 

Stock option expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $1,423,780 and $1,878,260, respectively.

 

8.Warrants

 

In 2017, the Company issued warrants to purchase common units to a non-employee. Upon conversion to a corporation in 2018, the warrants were amended to purchase common stock.

 

The fair value of each warrant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model and compensation expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The valuation model uses substantially the same assumptions as the share-based options except for the term of 20 years instead of 10 years. As of December 31, 2023, and 2022, there were 23,810 warrants outstanding and expected to vest. There were no warrants issued in 2023 or 2022.

 

9.Lease

 

In January 2022, the Company adopted the new lease accounting guidance under ASC 842. The most significant change requires lessees to record the present value of the operating lease payments as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The new guidance continues to require lessees to classify leases between operating and financing (formerly "capital leases"). The Company has no financing leases as of December 31, 2022.

 

The Company has one operating lease that was previously recognized under the prior standard, ASC 840 (see Note 6). Upon adoption of ASC 842, the qualifying lease has been recognized as a right-of-use lease asset on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet on December 31, 2022. The lease expires in August 2024. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets and liabilities - operating totaling $128,387.

Net Provision For Income Tax  $-   $- 

 

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities on December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, are as follows:

 

As of December 31,  2023   2022 
Net Operating Loss  $(1,908,534)  $(990,807)
Valuation Allowance   1,908,534    990,807 
Total Deferred Tax Asset  $-   $- 

 

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. On the basis of this evaluation, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the federal and state net deferred tax assets, and, as a result, a full valuation allowance has been set against its net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022. The amount of the deferred tax asset to be realized could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carry-forward period are reduced or increased.

 

For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, the Company had federal cumulative net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $6,395,891, and the Company had state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $6,395,891. Utilization of some of the federal and state NOL carryforwards to reduce future income taxes will depend on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the carryforwards. The federal net operating loss carryforward is subject to an 80% limitation on taxable income, does not expire, and will carry on indefinitely.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2023, and 2022 there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s operations.

 

13.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for the period from December 31, 2023, through October 09, 2024, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

 

In July 2024, the Company amended its 2018 stock option plan to decrease the authorized number of shares to be issued under the plan from 1,000,000 to 754,467.

 

In July 2024, the Company approved a new 2024 Stock Option Plan and reserved 445,533 shares of common stock to be issued under the new plan. Till the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, the Company granted 110,075 options under the new plan and cancelled 13,299 options due to death of the option holder.

 

The Company launched a Crowdfunding campaign pursuant to Regulation Crowdfunding with StartEngine as its registered platform. The Company is offering common stock with an offering price of $9.18 per share.

 

There have been no other events or transactions during this time which would have a material effect on these consolidated financial statements.

 

14.GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a net operating loss of $3,090,860, an operating cash outflow of $1,377,679, and liquid assets in cash of $1,180,996, which is less than a year's worth of cash reserves as of December 31, 2023. These factors normally raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements

For The Year Ended to December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the next twelve months following the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued is dependent upon its ability to produce revenues and/or obtain financing sufficient to meet current and future obligations and deploy such to produce profitable operating results. Management has evaluated these conditions and plans to generate revenues and raise capital as needed to satisfy its capital needs. During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations through debt and/or equity financing.

 

The Company's business is dependent on successful clinical trials of its products as well as FDA clearances/approvals for its products. The Company has three FDA clearances for medical devices, two of which were obtained by the fourth quarter of 2017. After learning of high-need drug indications the core technology could service via investigator-initiated clinical trials, the Company removed these initially cleared medical devices from commercial sale to focus its efforts on achieving these higher-value drug indications. In 2020, the Company conducted human clinical trials of its foundational product as a COVID-19 therapeutic. In 2022, the Company entered into a licensing agreement for a biologic product it developed and is pending FDA approval. The Company has also packaged two of its currently FDA-cleared products for out-licensing to advanced wound care organizations with the intent to receive additional upfront and future royalty payments to aid in funding its pharmaceutical drug trials. The Company is currently in the process of raising funds to dramatically increase its drug development pipeline through expanded clinical trials for multiple disease indications and the buildout of staffing required to conduct such drug development. Failure to obtain meaningful clinical data, get further clearances/approvals from the FDA, or an inability to successfully develop license or market products could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, or operations of the Company.

 

The Company has incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flows before financing activities since inception and has primarily relied on equity financing to fund its operations and may need to continue to raise additional capital to continue operations. The Company is subject to risk associated with a company at its relatively early stage, including the need to develop, demonstrate and refine its products and services, produce successful results from clinical trials, expand its management and technical team, obtain customers upon placing products for sale and ultimately sustain its profitability. Management believes that with its plans to carry out clinical trials and obtain additional financing, it will be able to maintain operations and continue research and development for a year from the report date of these consolidated financial statements. Failure to generate sufficient revenue or obtain financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

 

  15. Unaudited Subsequent Events

 

The Company launched a Crowdfunding campaign pursuant to Regulation Crowdfunding with StartEngine as its registered platform. The Company is offering common stock with an offering price of $9.18 per share. As of January 6, 2025, the Company has raised $1,546,575 from 411 investors.

 

In December 2024, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with a certain investor for sale of common stock of up to $75,000,000 (the “Aggregate limit”) contingent upon the Company achieving a public listing of its common stock. The agreement allows the Company to put its common stock to the investor at 90% of the average daily closing prices during the draw-down pricing period and the draw down amount not exceeding 300% of the average trading volume of 15 days immediately preceding the draw down exercise date. The agreement allows the Company to put restrictions on stock sales volume by investor, prohibitions on short selling by investor and the Company being able to set a threshold ‘floor’ price during draw-down periods. On public listing date, the Company shall issue a warrant to the investor granting the right to purchase the Company’s common stock representing 4% of the total equity interest. The Company shall pay a commitment fee of 1% of the Aggregate limit either in cash or common stock under the agreement. If the Company is sold in a private transaction, a fee of 1% of the total consideration received by the Company shall be paid to the investor.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(ii)            StartEngine will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified Party”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) that arise out of or are based solely upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, or arise out of or are based solely upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by StartEngine expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred.

 

(iii)            Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under subsection (i) or (ii) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (a) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

 

20

 

 

(iv)            If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party under subsection (i) or (ii) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and StartEngine on the other from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the Indemnified Party failed to give the notice required under subsection (iii) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and StartEngine on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and StartEngine on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to the Fee received by StartEngine. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or StartEngine on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and StartEngine agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (iv) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (iv). The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (iv) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (iv), each StartEngine will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the Fee received by such StartEngine. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting. If no date for the annual meeting is established or said meeting is not held on the date established as provided above, a special meeting in lieu thereof may be held or there may be action by written consent of the stockholders on matters to be voted on at the annual meeting, and such special meeting or written consent shall have for the purposes of these Bylaws or otherwise all the force and effect of an annual meeting.

 

2.          Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders may be called for any purpose (including, without limitation, the filling of vacancies on the Board of Directors and the election of new members of the Board of Directors). Such special meetings may be called at any time by the Chief Executive Officer, if one is elected, or, if there is no Chief Executive Officer, a President, or by the Board of Directors, or by any stockholder of the Corporation holding 25% or more of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation (on a fully-diluted basis), but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons.

Only the purposes specified in the notice of special meeting shall be considered or dealt with at such special meeting.

 

3.          Notice of Meetings.

4.          Adjourned Meetings. If a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, except that if the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

5.          Quorum. The holders of a majority in interest of all stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at a meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. Any meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of the votes properly cast upon the question, whether or not a quorum is present.

 

6.          Voting and Proxies. Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation or law, stockholders shall have one vote for each share of stock entitled to vote owned by them of record according to the books of the Corporation. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy. Every proxy must be signed by the stockholder granting the proxy or by his attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. Proxies shall be filed with the secretary of the meeting, or of any adjournment thereof. Except as otherwise limited therein, proxies shall entitle the persons authorized thereby to vote at any adjournment of such meeting. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a stockholder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise and the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger. A proxy with respect to stock held in the name of two or more persons shall be valid if executed by one of them unless at or prior to exercise of the proxy the Corporation receives a specific written notice to the contrary from any one of them.

 

7.          Action at Meeting. When a quorum is present, any matter before the meeting shall be decided by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock voting on such matter except where a larger vote is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. Any election of directors by stockholders shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast, except where a larger vote is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. The Corporation shall not directly or indirectly vote any share of its own stock; provided, however, that the Corporation may vote shares which it holds in a fiduciary capacity to the extent permitted by law.

The failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or stockholders) to make a determination concerning the permissibility of such advancement of Expenses under this Article V shall not be a defense to the action and shall not create a presumption that such advancement is not permissible. The burden of proving that a Director or Officer is not entitled to an advancement of expenses shall be on the Corporation.

 

(c)               In any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that the Director or Officer has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL.

If there exists any conflict between this Article V and any agreement for indemnification entered into between the Corporation and a Director, the terms and conditions of such indemnification agreement shall prevail.

 

(b)               If a claim for indemnification hereunder by a Director or Officer is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Corporation of a written claim for indemnification, such Director or Officer may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the unpaid amount of the claim, and if successful in whole or in part, such Director or Officer shall also be entitled to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such claim. The failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or stockholders) to make a determination concerning the permissibility of such indemnification under this Article V shall not be a defense to the action and shall not create a presumption that such indemnification is not permissible. The burden of proving that a Director or Officer is not entitled to indemnification shall be on the Corporation.

Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility shall be for the safekeeping and disbursement of the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent shall have no implied duties or obligations and shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein. Escrow Agent may rely upon any notice, instruction, request or other instrument, not only as to its due execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent shall believe to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the person or parties purporting to sign the same. In no event shall Escrow Agent be liable for incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages (including, but not limited to lost profits), even if Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal action or commence any proceeding in connection with the Escrow Funds, any account in which Escrow Funds are deposited, this Escrow Agreement or the Offering Document, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such legal action or proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or required to enforce any of the terms or conditions of any subscription agreement with any Subscriber or any other agreement between Issuer, Broker and/or any Subscriber. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible or liable in any manner for the performance by Issuer or any Subscriber of their respective obligations under any subscription agreement nor shall Escrow Agent be responsible or liable in any manner for the failure of Issuer, Broker or any third party (including any Subscriber) to honor any of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent may consult legal counsel selected by it in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions hereof or of any other agreement or of its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving any party hereto, and shall incur no liability and shall be fully indemnified from any reasonable liability whatsoever in acting in accordance with the reasonable opinion or instruction of such counsel. Issuer shall promptly pay, upon demand, the reasonable fees and expenses of any such counsel.

 

b.            Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to comply with orders issued or process entered by any court with respect to the Escrow Funds, without determination by Escrow Agent of such court's jurisdiction in the matter. If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such event, Escrow Agent is authorized, in its reasonable discretion, to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is advised by legal counsel selected by it is binding upon it without the need for appeal or other action; and if Escrow Agent complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall provide the Issuer and Broker with immediate notice of any such court order or similar demand and the opportunity to interpose an objection or obtain a protective order.

 

9.            Indemnification of Escrow Agent. From and at all times after the date of this Escrow Agreement, Issuer shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent and each director, officer, employee, attorney, agent and affiliate of Escrow Agent (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all actions, claims (whether or not valid), losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties from and after the date hereof, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or in any way relating to any claim, demand, suit, action or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) by any person, including without limitation Issuer, Broker whether threatened or initiated, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any person under any statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, any federal or state securities laws, or under any common law or equitable cause or otherwise, arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, performance or failure of performance of this Escrow Agreement or any transactions contemplated herein, whether or not any such Indemnified Party is a party to any such action, proceeding, suit or the target of any such inquiry or investigation; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for any liability finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, subject to no further appeal, to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. Each Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to select and employ separate counsel with respect to any action or claim brought or asserted against it, and the reasonable fees of such counsel shall be paid upon demand by the Issuer. The obligations of Issuer under this Section 9 shall survive any termination of this Escrow Agreement and the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

 

 

 

 

10.            Compensation to Escrow Agent.

 

a.            Fees and Expenses. Broker shall compensate Escrow Agent for its services hereunder in accordance with Exhibit A attached hereto and, in addition, shall reimburse Escrow Agent for all of its reasonable pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees, travel expenses, telephone and facsimile transmission costs, postage (including express mail and overnight delivery charges), copying charges and the like. The additional provisions and information set forth on Exhibit A are hereby incorporated by this reference, and form a part of this Escrow Agreement. All of the compensation and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 10 shall be payable by Broker upon demand by Escrow Agent. The obligations of Broker under this Section 10 shall survive any termination of this Escrow Agreement and the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

 

b.            Disbursements from Escrow Funds to Pay Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent is authorized to and may disburse from time to time, to itself or to Broker or to any Indemnified Party from the Escrow Funds (but only to the extent of Issuer’s rights thereto), the amount of any compensation and reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses due and payable hereunder (including any amount to which Escrow Agent or any Indemnified Party is entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to Section 9 hereof). Escrow Agent shall notify Issuer and Broker of any disbursement from the Escrow Funds to itself or to any Indemnified Party in respect of any compensation or reimbursement hereunder and shall furnish to Issuer copies of all related invoices and other statements.

 

c.            Security and Offset. Issuer hereby grants to Escrow Agent and Broker and the Indemnified Parties a security interest in and lien upon the Escrow Funds (to the extent of Issuer’s rights thereto) to secure all obligations hereunder, and Escrow Agent and the Indemnified Parties shall have the right to offset the amount of any compensation or reimbursement due any of them hereunder (including any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9 hereof) against the Escrow Funds (to the extent of Issuer’s rights thereto.) If for any reason the Escrow Funds available to Escrow Agent and the Indemnified Parties pursuant to such security interest or right of offset are insufficient to cover such compensation and reimbursement, Broker shall promptly pay such amounts to Escrow Agent and the Indemnified Parties upon receipt of an itemized invoice.

 

 

 

 

11.            Representations and Warranties.

 

a.            Each of Broker and Issuer respectively makes the following representations and warranties to Escrow Agent:

 

(1)            It is a corporation or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation or organization, and has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Escrow Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder.

 

(2)            This Escrow Agreement has been duly approved by all necessary corporate action, including any necessary shareholder or membership approval, has been executed by its duly authorized officers, and constitutes its valid and binding agreement, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

(3)            The execution, delivery, and performance of this Escrow Agreement will not violate, conflict with, or cause a default under its articles of incorporation, articles of organization or bylaws, operating agreement or other organizational documents, as applicable, any applicable law or regulation, any court order or administrative ruling or decree to which it is a party or any of its property is subject, or any agreement, contract, indenture, or other binding arrangement to which it is a party or any of its property is subject. The execution, delivery and performance of this Escrow Agreement is consistent with and accurately described in the Offering Document as set forth in Sections 4(b) and 4(c) hereof, has been properly described therein.

 

(4)            It hereby acknowledges that the status of Escrow Agent is that of agent only for the limited purposes set forth herein, and hereby represents and covenants that no representation or implication shall be made that Escrow Agent has investigated the desirability or advisability of investment in the Shares or has approved, endorsed or passed upon the merits of the investment therein and that the name of Escrow Agent has not and shall not be used in any manner in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares other than to state that Escrow Agent has agreed to serve as Escrow Agent for the limited purposes set forth herein.

c.            Broker further represent and warrant to Escrow Agent that the deposit with Escrow Agent by Escrow Agent of Cash Investment Instruments pursuant to Section 3 hereof shall be deemed a representation and warranty by Escrow Agent that such Cash Investment Instrument represents a bona fide sale to the Subscriber described therein of the amount of Shares set forth therein, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Offering Document.

 

12.            Identifying Information. Issuer and Broker acknowledge that a portion of the identifying information requested by Escrow Agent in connection with this Escrow Agreement is being requested by Escrow Agent in connection with the USA Patriot Act, Pub.L.107-56 (the “Act”). To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a Trust, or other legal entity, Escrow Agent will ask for documentation to verify such person or entity’s formation and existence as a legal entity. Escrow Agent may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation.

 

 

 

 

13.            Compliance with Privacy Laws. Escrow Agent represents and warrants that its collection, access, use, storage, disposal and disclosure of Personal Data does and will comply with all applicable federal and state privacy and data protection laws, as well as all other applicable regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall implement administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect Personal Data that are no less rigorous than accepted industry, and shall ensure that all such safeguards, including the manner in which Personal Data is collected, accessed, used, stored, processed, disposed of and disclosed, comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws, as well as the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement.  Escrow Agent shall use and disclose Personal Data solely and exclusively for the purposes for which the Personal Data, or access to it, is provided pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement, and not use, sell, rent, transfer, distribute, or otherwise disclose or make available Personal Data for Escrow Agent’s own purposes or for the benefit of any party other than Issuer.  For purposes of this section, “Personal Data” shall mean information provided to Escrow Agent by or at the direction of the Issuer or Broker, or to which access was provided to Escrow Agent by or at the direction of the Issuer or Broker, in the course of Escrow Agent’s performance under this Escrow Agreement that: (i) identifies or can be used to identify an individual (also known as a “data subject”) (including, without limitation, names, signatures, addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses and other unique identifiers); or (ii) can be used to authenticate an individual (including, without limitation, employee identification numbers, government-issued identification numbers, passwords or PINs, financial account numbers, credit report information, biometric or health data, answers to security questions and other personal identifiers), including the identifying information on individuals described in Section 12.

 

14.            Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. In the event that any party hereto commences a lawsuit or other proceeding relating to or arising from this Escrow Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the United States District Court for the State of Delaware shall have the sole and exclusive jurisdiction over any such proceeding. If such court lacks federal subject matter jurisdiction, the parties agree that the Circuit Court in and for State of Delaware shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction. Any of these courts shall be proper venue for any such lawsuit or judicial proceeding and the parties hereto waive any objection to such venue. The parties hereto consent to and agree to submit to the jurisdiction of any of the courts specified herein and agree to accept service of process to vest personal jurisdiction over them in any of these courts.

16.            Amendment or Waiver. This Escrow Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by a writing signed by Broker, Issuer and Escrow Agent. No delay or omission by any party in exercising any right with respect hereto shall operate as a waiver. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to, or waiver of, any right or remedy on any future occasion.

 

 

 

 

17.            Severability. To the extent any provision of this Escrow Agreement is 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 provision or the remaining provisions of this Escrow Agreement.

Upon the first to occur of the disbursement of all amounts in the Escrow Funds or deposit of all amounts in the Escrow Funds into court pursuant to Section 5 or Section 8 hereof, this Escrow Agreement shall terminate and Escrow Agent shall have no further obligation or liability whatsoever with respect to this Escrow Agreement or the Escrow Funds.

 

THIS SPACE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK

 

 

 

 

23.            Dealings. Escrow Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of Escrow Agent may buy, sell, and deal in any of the securities of the Issuer and become pecuniary interested in any transaction in which the Issuer may be interested, and contract and lend money to the Issuer and otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Escrow Agent under this Escrow Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude Escrow Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Issuer or any other entity.

This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which the Purchaser or GYBL is a party has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Purchaser and GYBL. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which the Purchaser or GYBL is a party constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser or GYBL, enforceable against the Purchaser or GYBL, respectively, in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership, or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

 

(c)            No Conflicts.

The Purchaser and GYBL have sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Shares. The Purchaser and GYBL understand that they (and not the Company) shall be responsible for their own respective tax liabilities that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Purchaser or GYBL is a party.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, at no time while the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act may the Company issue, and at no time shall the Purchaser be obligated to purchase, any Shares which would result in the Purchaser beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, at the time of such proposed issuance, more than 9.99% of the number of Common Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of such proposed issuance; provided, however, that upon the Purchaser providing the Company with sixty-one (61) days’ notice (pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof) (the “Waiver Notice”) that the Purchaser would like to waive this Section 4.06 with regard to any or all Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement, this Section 4.06 will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of the Shares referenced in the Waiver Notice until the date that the Purchaser notifies the Company (pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof) that the Purchaser revokes the Waiver Notice; provided, further, that during the sixty-one (61) day period prior to the expiration of the Investment Period, the Purchaser may waive this Section 4.06 by providing a Waiver Notice at any time during such sixty-one (61) day period.

In addition, during any Draw Down Pricing Period and on a daily Trading Day basis, the Purchaser agrees to restrict the volume of sales of Shares by the Purchaser, its Affiliates and any entity managed by the Purchaser to no more than 1/15th of the Shares purchased pursuant to the related Draw Down Notice.

Section 4.12          Commitment Fee; Warrant.

 

(a)            The Company shall pay to GYBL, as a commitment fee, an amount equal to 1% of the Aggregate Limit (the “Commitment Fee”), deliverable as set forth below. Subject to Section 4.12(d), the Commitment Fee due upon each Draw Down may be paid in cash from the proceeds of such Draw Down or in freely tradeable Common Shares of the Company valued at the Daily Closing Price at the time of such Draw Down, at the option of the Company. The amount of the Commitment Fee due in each such installment shall be the product obtained by multiplying (i) the total amount of the Commitment Fee by (ii) the quotient derived by dividing (y) the value of Shares purchased pursuant to the applicable Draw Down by (z) the Aggregate Limit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, at its option, may pay the Commitment Fee in cash or in Common Shares (provided that such Common Shares shall have been registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement), so long as 100% of the Commitment Fee shall have been paid on or before the six (6) month anniversary of the Public Listing Date. On the Public Listing Date, the Company shall place a cash amount equal to the Commitment Fee either into an escrow account as agreed between the Parties or shall issue shares to the Purchaser as described in Section 4.12(d). For the avoidance of doubt, (1) the Commitment Fee shall be payable by the Company irrespective of whether any Draw Down Notices have been delivered by the Company in accordance herewith, and (2) no Commitment Fee shall be payable in the event that the Company does not achieve a Public Listing.

 

(b)            On the Public Listing Date, the Company shall make and execute a warrant granting GYBL the right to purchase Common Shares, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrant”) having an expiration date that is the third anniversary of the Public Listing Date, granting GYBL the right to purchase, upon the terms set forth more fully therein, up to the number of Common Shares that is equal to 4% of the total equity interests (including Common Shares and any other equity interests convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares or bearing equivalent economic interests) outstanding immediately after the completion of the Public Listing (including any Common Shares issued pursuant to an over-allotment option), calculated on a fully diluted basis (the “Warrant Shares”), at an exercise price per Share equal to the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the Common Shares on the Public Listing Date, or (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing $150 million by the total number of equity interests (equal to the number of Common Shares, assuming the conversion or exchange of all other equity interests for Common Shares). On the first anniversary following the Public Listing Date (the “Adjustment Date”), if all or any portion of the Warrants remain unexercised and the average Daily Closing Price of the Common Shares for the 10 Trading Days following the Adjustment Date (the “Current Trading Price”) is less than 90% of the then-current exercise price of the Warrant, the exercise price of such remaining Warrant shall adjust to 105% of the Current Trading Price. The exercise price, as so adjusted, shall be the “Warrant Exercise Price.” The number of Warrant Shares shall be reduced by an amount equal to the number of Underlying Warrant Shares sold by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.02(b) hereof prior to redemption of the Underlying Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.02(b), and the Warrant shall be amended upon such redemption to reflect such reduced number of Warrant Shares.

 

 22 

 

 

(c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, if the Purchaser determines in its reasonable discretion that the issuance of the Warrant could result in the Warrant Shares or any Shares issued to the Purchaser pursuant to a Draw Down hereunder not to be freely transferable under applicable securities Laws or otherwise adversely effects the Purchaser’s ability to sell the Warrant Shares or such Shares issued pursuant to a Draw Down, then the Parties shall structure an alternative issuance and sale of Common Shares to the Purchaser that are economically equivalent to the exercise of the Warrant in full.

 

(d)            On the Public Listing Date, unless the Company shall have placed a cash amount into escrow pursuant to the option set forth in Section 4.12(a), the Company shall issue a number of Common Shares to GYBL equal to the Commitment Fee, divided by the Daily Closing Price on the Public Listing Date (the “Commitment Fee Shares”). The Commitment Fee Shares shall bear the following restrictive legend (the “Legend”):

 

THESE SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE PURSUANT TO A SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION, OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT.

 

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Legend to be removed from any Commitment Fee Shares (x) upon payment of any portion of the Commitment Fee by the Company in Common Shares pursuant to Section 4.12(a) above or (y) no later than the six (6) month anniversary of the Public Listing Date.

 

(e)            (i) If, on the 90th day after the Public Listing Date, GYBL holds Commitment Fee Shares which have an aggregate value (calculated by reference to the Daily Closing Price) which is less than the portion of the Commitment Fee that remains unpaid (the “Shortfall”), then the Company shall promptly issue additional Commitment Fee Shares to GYBL equal in value to the Shortfall. (ii) If, on the 90th day after the Public Listing Date or the date upon which the Commitment Fee has been paid in full, if earlier, GYBL holds Commitment Fee Shares that have an aggregate value (calculated by reference to the Daily Closing Price) that is greater than the portion of the Commitment Fee to be paid on such date (the “Surplus”), then GYBL shall promptly return to the Company a number of Commitment Fee Shares equal in value to the Surplus.

 

Section 4.13         Private Transaction Fee. In the event that the Company does not complete an initial public offering or Reverse Merger Transaction, for any reason, but instead completes a transaction, including but not limited to a merger, acquisition, sale, share exchange, or any other private business combination which results or would result in a Change of Control of the Company (a “Private Transaction”), then the Company shall pay GYBL at or prior to the closing of such Private Transaction 1% of the total consideration received by the Company, its stockholders and management in such Private Transaction, in lieu of the Warrant.

 

 23 

 

 

Section 4.14         DWAC Eligibility. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Shares and its transfer agent to be, at the time of each Draw Down, eligible to participate in the DWAC system (“DWAC Eligible”).

 

Section 4.15          Reservation of Shares. The Company will have available, and shall reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive and other similar rights of stockholders, the requisite aggregate number of authorized but unissued Common Shares to enable the Company to timely effect the issuance, sale and delivery in full to the Purchaser of all the Shares to be issued and delivered under this Agreement, in any case prior to the issuance to the Purchaser of such Common Shares.

 

Section 4.16          Amendments to the Registration Statement; Prospectus Supplements. Except as provided in this Agreement and other than periodic reports required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Company shall not file with the Commission any amendment to the Registration Statement that relates to the Purchaser, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or file with the Commission any Prospectus Supplement that relates to the Purchaser, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby with respect to which (a) the Purchaser shall not previously have been advised, (b) the Company shall not have given due consideration to any comments thereon received from the Purchaser or its counsel, or

 

(c)            the Purchaser shall reasonably object after being so advised, unless it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement or make any supplement to the Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or any other applicable law or regulation, in which case the Company shall promptly so inform the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall be provided with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any disclosure relating to the Purchaser and the Company shall expeditiously furnish to the Purchaser an electronic copy thereof. In addition, for so long as, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Purchaser, the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is required to be delivered in connection with any sales of registrable securities by the Purchaser, the Company shall not file any Prospectus Supplement without delivering or making available a copy of such Prospectus Supplement to the Purchaser promptly. Upon receipt of an amendment to the Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement from the Company or its counsel, the Purchaser shall promptly review such document and provide comments to the Company or its counsel regarding such document, if any, within a reasonable period of time.

ARTICLE VI

DRAW DOWN TERMS

 

Section 6.01         Draw Down Terms. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and subject to Section 6.02 below, the Parties agree (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Parties in writing) as follows:

 

(a)            The Company may, in its sole discretion, issue a Draw Down Notice (as defined in Section 6.01(h) hereof) for a specified Draw Down Amount Requested. Subject to Section 6.01(g) below, the Purchaser shall pay a per-Share amount equal to 90% of the average Daily Closing Price during the Draw Down Pricing Period (the “Purchase Price”). Subject to Section 4.06 hereof, the Draw Down Amount Requested shall not exceed three hundred percent (300%) (the “Draw Down Limit”) of the average daily trading volume for the 15 Trading Days immediately preceding the Draw Down Exercise Date.

 

 27 

 

 

(b)            Prior to commencement of the Draw Down Pricing Period, the Company shall deliver the Shares to be purchased in such Draw Down to the Purchaser. If Shares delivered to the Purchaser prior to commencement of the Draw Down Pricing Period are delivered in certificated form and not DWAC Eligible, then the Draw Down Pricing Period shall not begin until the Shares are cleared by an appointed clearing agent.

 

(c)            Only one Draw Down shall be allowed in each Draw Down Pricing Period.

 

(d)            Each Draw Down shall be settled on the first Trading Day after the end of each Draw Down Pricing Period (the “Settlement Date”).

 

(e)            At the end of each Draw Down Pricing Period, the Purchaser’s total Draw Down commitment under this Agreement shall be reduced by the total Draw Down Amount for such Draw Down Pricing Period.

 

(f)            Each Draw Down will automatically expire immediately after the last Trading Day of each Draw Down Pricing Period.

 

(g)            Each Draw Down Notice shall set forth the Threshold Price set by the Company for such Draw Down. If the Daily Closing Price on a given Trading Day in the Draw Down Pricing Period, multiplied by 9/10, is less than the Threshold Price, then the total Draw Down Amount Requested will be reduced by 1/15th, and, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, no Shares will be purchased or sold with respect to such Trading Day and the Daily Closing Price on such Trading Day shall be excluded from the calculation of the Purchase Price.

 

(h)            As a condition to the exercise of any Draw Down, the Company must (i) provide a notice to the Purchaser of the Company’s exercise of any Draw Down via email before commencement of trading on the first Trading Day of the Draw Down Pricing Period covered by such notice (the “Draw Down Notice”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, and (ii) pursuant to Section 6.01(b), deliver the Shares to the Purchaser or its designees via DWAC, if the Company is approved for DWAC in an amount equal to the Draw Down Amount Requested (which amount shall be adjusted in the event that the amount accepted by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.01(a) hereof is different than the Draw Down Amount Requested). The date the Company delivers the Draw Down Notice and the Shares in accordance with this Section 6.01(h) shall be a “Draw Down Exercise Date.” The Draw Down Notice shall specify the Draw Down Amount Requested, set the Threshold Price for such Draw Down and designate the first Trading Day of the Draw Down Pricing Period that the Company wishes to grant to the Purchaser during the Draw Down Pricing Period.

 

 28 

 

 

(i)             On each Settlement Date, the Purchaser shall (i) provide the Company a closing notice in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto; (ii) make payment for the Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement to the Company’s designated account by wire transfer of immediately available funds, provided that the Shares were received by the Purchaser in accordance with Section 6.01(b) hereof; and (iii) return to the Company any Shares delivered to the Purchaser in connection with the applicable Draw Down Notice pursuant to Section 6.01(b) that have not been purchased by Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof, it being understood that Purchaser shall have the ability to sell any purchased Shares at any time following their deposit pursuant to Section 6.01(b).

 

Section 6.02         Aggregate Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event may the Company issue a Draw Down Notice to the extent that the sale of Shares pursuant thereto and pursuant to all prior Draw Down Notices issued pursuant to Section 6.01 would cause the Company to sell or the Purchaser to purchase an aggregate number of Shares exceeding the Aggregate Limit. If the Company issues a Draw Down Notice that otherwise would permit the Purchaser to purchase a number of Shares which would cause the aggregate purchases by Purchaser hereunder to exceed the Aggregate Limit, such Draw Down Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent by which number of Shares issuable pursuant to such Draw Down Notice, together with the number of Shares purchased by the Purchaser pursuant hereto, would exceed the Aggregate Limit.

 

ARTICLE VII

TERMINATION

 

Section 7.01         Term, Termination by Mutual Consent. Unless earlier terminated as provided hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate automatically on the earliest of (i) thirty-six (36) consecutive months from the Public Listing Date (the “Investment Period”); (ii) thirty-six (36) months from the Effective Date (as may be extended for the duration of the Investment Period if the Public Listing Date falls within such three (3) year period), and (iii) the date the Purchaser shall have purchased the Aggregate Limit. This Agreement may be terminated immediately at any time by mutual written consent of the Parties, effective as of the date of such mutual written consent unless otherwise provided in such written consent; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not terminate until the Company has delivered to the Purchaser the number of Shares required to be delivered hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof, if any.

 

Section 7.02         Effect of Termination. In the event of termination by the Company or the Purchaser, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be terminated without further action by either party, it being understood that the Warrant and Registration Rights Agreement shall not terminate and shall continue to survive in accordance with their respective terms. If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 7.01 herein, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force and effect, except as provided in Section 9.09 hereof.

 

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 8.01          General Indemnity.

 

(a)            Indemnification by the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each Person who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all attorneys’ fees) to which the Purchaser and each such controlling Person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) (collectively, “Losses,” and each, a “Loss”) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained, or incorporated by reference, in the Registration Statement relating to the Shares being sold to the Purchaser (including any prospectus relating thereto), or any amendment or supplement to it, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement or any document incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) breach of representation, warranty or covenant of the Company contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including a failure to deliver the Shares to the Purchaser by the deadline set forth in herein, whether or not such Losses are a result of a claim by a third party. Pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof, the Company will reimburse the Purchaser and each such controlling Person promptly upon demand for any legal or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by the Purchaser or such controlling Person in investigating, defending against, or preparing to defend against any such Loss.

 

 29 

 

 

(b)            Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act from and against any Losses that arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission, included in the Registration Statement in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished by the Purchaser to the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, the untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished by the Purchaser to the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement, whether or not such Losses are as a result of a claim by a third party. Pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof, the Purchaser will reimburse the Company and each such director, officer or controlling Person promptly upon demand for any legal or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or the other Person in investigating, defending against, or preparing to defend against any such Loss.

 

Section 8.02         Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after a Person receives notice of a claim or the commencement of an action for which the Person intends to seek indemnification under Section 8.01, the Person will notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or commencement of the action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under Section 8.01, except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by the failure to give notice. The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim, action, suit or proceeding as to which indemnification is being sought, and if the indemnifying party acknowledges in writing the obligation to indemnify the party against whom the claim or action is brought, the indemnifying party may (but will not be required to) assume the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding with counsel satisfactory to it. After an indemnifying party notifies an indemnified party that the indemnifying party wishes to assume the defense of a claim, action, suit or proceeding, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any legal or other expenses incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding except that if, in the opinion of counsel to the indemnifying party, one or more of the indemnified parties should be separately represented in connection with a claim, action, suit or proceeding, the indemnifying party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition to receiving indemnification as provided in Section 8.01, will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the indemnifying party in the defense of any action or claim as to which indemnification is sought. No indemnifying party will be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its prior written consent. No indemnifying party will, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of a pending or threatened action with respect to which an indemnified party is, or is informed that it may be, made a party, and for which it would be entitled to indemnification, unless the settlement includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability and claims which are the subject matter of the pending or threatened action. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is not available to, or is not sufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any loss or liability referred to in Section 8.01 as to which it is entitled to indemnification thereunder, each indemnifying party will, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss or liability, (i) in the proportion which is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and by the indemnified party on the other from the sale of the Shares which is the subject of the claim, action, suit or proceeding which resulted in the loss or liability or (ii) if that allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits of the sale of such Shares, but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party with respect to the statements or omissions which are the subject of the claim, action, suit or proceeding that resulted in the loss or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

Subject to Allowable Grace Periods (as defined herein below), the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act and available for sales of all of the Registrable Securities at all times until the date as of which the Investor no longer owns any Registrable Securities (the “Registration Period”). The Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, in addition to any other remedies available at law or equity or as set forth herein, in the Purchase Agreement or otherwise, if (i) the Company shall have failed to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or (ii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, in each case, for any reason or no reason, then the Company shall pay to Purchaser or its designee an amount equal to $10,000 for each day following the Filing Deadline or Effectiveness Deadline, as applicable, until the Registration Statement has been filed with the Commission or the Registration Statement has been declared effective, as applicable.

 

 3 

 

 

(b)          Rule 424 Prospectus. The Company shall, as required by applicable securities regulations, from time to time file with the Commission, pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, the prospectus, amendments and prospectus supplements, if any, to be used in connection with offers and sales of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement. The Investor and Legal Counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such prospectus prior to its filing with the Commission. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon such prospectus within two Trading Days from the date the Investor receives the proposed final version of such prospectus.

 

(c)          Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the number of shares available under the Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall file one or more additional Registration Statements (each a “New Registration Statement”), so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities as soon as practicable, but in any case not later than twenty (20) Trading Days after the necessity therefor arises. The Company shall use it reasonable best efforts to cause each such New Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

 

(d)          Piggyback Registrations. Without limiting any of the Company’s obligations hereunder or under the Purchase Agreement, if there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-8 (as promulgated under the Securities Act) or its equivalent relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s option or other employee benefit plans), then the Company shall deliver to the Investor a written notice of such determination and, if within five days after the date of the delivery of such notice, the Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities the offer and sale of which the Investor requests to be registered.

 

(e)          No Inclusion of Other Securities. In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) or 2(c) without the prior written consent of the Investor.

 

 4 

 

 

(f)          Offering. If the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) or the Commission seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) (or as otherwise may be acceptable to the Investor), or if after the filing of the initial Registration Statement with the Commission pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company is otherwise required by the Staff or the Commission to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such initial Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such initial Registration Statement (with the prior consent of the Investor and Legal Counsel as to the specific Registrable Securities to be removed therefrom, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, denied, or conditioned) until such time as the Staff and the Commission shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if after giving effect to the actions referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, the Staff or the Commission does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) (or as otherwise may be acceptable to the Investor), the Company shall not request acceleration of the Effective Date of such Registration Statement and, in its sole and absolute discretion, may take such steps as may be required for such Registration Statement to become effective pursuant to Section 8 of the Securities Act. If not, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 48 hours) request the withdrawal of such Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act, and the Effectiveness Deadline shall automatically be deemed to have elapsed with respect to such Registration Statement at such time as the Staff or the Commission has made a final and non-appealable determination that the Commission will not permit such Registration Statement to be so utilized (unless prior to such time the Company and the Investor have received assurances from the Staff or the Commission reasonably acceptable to Legal Counsel that a new Registration Statement filed by the Company with the Commission promptly thereafter may be so utilized). In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall file additional Registration Statements in accordance with Section 2(c) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use by the Investor.

 

3.          Related Obligations. With respect to the Registration Statement and whenever any Registrable Securities are to be registered pursuant to Section 2 including on any New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

(a)          The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to any registration statement and any prospectus and prospectus supplement used in connection with such registration statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such registration statement.

 

(b)          The Company shall permit the Investor to review and comment upon the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least two Trading Days prior to their filing with the Commission, and not file any document in a form to which Investor reasonably objects. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto within two (2) Trading Days from the date the Investor receives the final version thereof. The Company shall furnish to the Investor, without charge, any correspondence from the Commission or the staff of the Commission to the Company or its representatives relating to the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement.

 

 5 

 

 

(c)                 Upon request of the Investor, the Company shall furnish to the Investor, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the Commission, at least one copy of such registration statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits; (ii) upon the effectiveness of any registration statement, a copy of the prospectus included in such registration statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably request); and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to the Investor via the Commission’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “furnished to the Investor” hereunder.

 

(d)          The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investor reasonably requests; (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period; (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period; and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

(e)          As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or facts, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the happening of any event or existence of such facts as a result of which the prospectus included in any registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such registration statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a copy of such supplement or amendment to the Investor (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a registration statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to the Investor by email on the same day of such effectiveness); (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any registration statement or related prospectus or related information; and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a registration statement would be appropriate.

 

 6 

 

 

(f)          The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any registration statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

(g)          The Company shall (i) cause all the Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange; or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities on the Principal Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section.

 

(h)          Upon the Investor’s written request, the Company shall cooperate with the Investor to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to any registration statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts as the Investor may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investor may request.

 

(i)          The Company shall at all times maintain the services of a transfer agent and registrar with respect to its Common Shares.

 

(j)          If reasonably requested by the Investor, the Company shall (i) immediately incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably believes should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any registration statement.

 

(k)          The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by any registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

 

(l)          Within three Trading Days after any registration statement which includes the Registrable Securities is declared effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investor) confirmation that such registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Thereafter, if requested by the Purchaser at any time, the Company shall require its counsel to deliver to the Purchaser a written confirmation whether or not the effectiveness of such registration statement has lapsed at any time for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) and whether or not the registration statement is current and available to the Purchaser for sale of all of the Registrable Securities.

 

 7 

 

 

(m)          The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration statement, including participating in customary due diligence sessions with underwriters of the Registrable Securities (in the case of an underwritten offering) and engaging counsel and independent auditors to provide customary legal opinions (including disclosure letters) and comfort letters, respectively.

 

(n)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 3(n)), at any time after the Effective Date of a particular Registration Statement, the Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good-faith opinion of the board of directors of the Company, in the best interest of the Company, nor, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a “Grace Period”); provided, however, that the Company shall promptly, but in no event later than 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Trading Day immediately prior to the commencement of any Grace Period (except for such case where it is impossible to provide such two-Trading Day advance notice, in which case the Company shall provide such notice as soon as possible), notify the Investor in writing of the (i) existence of material, non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each such notice the Company shall not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to the Investor) and the date on which such Grace Period will begin and (ii) date on which such Grace Period ends; provided, further, that (I) no Grace Period shall exceed 20 consecutive Trading Days, and during any 365-day period, all such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of 60 Trading Days; provided, further, that the Company shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other shareholder during any such Grace Period, (II) the first day of any Grace Period must be at least three Trading Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Parties) after the last day of any prior Grace Period and (III) no Grace Period may exist during (A) the first 10 consecutive Trading Days after the Effective Date of the particular Registration Statement or (B) the five-Trading Day period following each Settlement Date (each, an “Allowable Grace Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, such Grace Period shall begin on and include the date set forth in the notice referred to in clause (i) above, provided that such notice is received by the Investor not later than 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Trading Day immediately prior to such commencement date (except for such case where it is impossible to provide such two-Trading Day advance notice, in which case the Company shall provide such notice as soon as possible) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investor receives the notice referred to in clause (ii) above and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 3(j) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of each Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(e) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(n), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended Common Shares to a transferee of the Investor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Investor has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, prior to the Investor’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

4.Obligations of the Investor.

 

(a)          At least five Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of each Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the information the Company reasonably requires from the Investor in connection with any registration statement hereunder. The Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.

 

(b)          The Investor, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of each Registration Statement hereunder, unless the Investor has notified the Company in writing of the Investor’s election to exclude all of the Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

 

(c)          The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event or existence of facts of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the first sentence of Section 3(e), the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(f) or the first sentence of Section 3(e). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to promptly deliver Common Shares without any restrictive legend in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the first sentence of Section 3(e) and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

(b)          The Company shall pay the fees and expenses of the Legal Counsel in connection with the review and overseeing the Registration Statement and all New Registration Statements on Investors’ behalf, subject to a maximum fee of $20,000 per Registration Statement and any New Registration Statement.

6.Indemnification.

 

(a)          To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor, each Person, if any, who controls the Investor, the members, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, advisors, representatives of the Investor and each Person, if any, who controls the Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, contingencies, costs (including, without limitation, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of defense and investigation), attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the Commission, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto, whether or not arising from a claim by a third party (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement, any New Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the any prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the Commission) or in any prospectus supplement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement or (iv) any material violation by the Company of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse each Indemnified Person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section (a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information about the Investor furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, any New Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e); (ii) with respect to any superseded prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such person from whom the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any person controlling such person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the superseded prospectus was corrected in the revised prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such revised prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e), and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it; (iii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 3(e); and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 9.

 

 10 

 

 

(b)          In connection with the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement, the Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about the Investor furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use in connection with such registration statement; and, subject to Section 6(d), the Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 9.

 

(c)          Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6 deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

 11 

 

 

(d)          The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

 

(e)          The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

 

7.          Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

8.Reports and Disclosures under the Securities Acts.

 

With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees, at the Company’s sole expense, to:

  

(a)          make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

 

(b)          file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144;

 

(c)          furnish to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting and/ or disclosure provisions of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration (for the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to the Investor via the Commission’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “furnished to the Investor” hereunder); and

 

(d)          take such additional action as is requested by the Investor to enable the Investor to sell the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144, including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Company’s transfer agent as may be requested from time to time by the Investor and otherwise reasonably cooperate with Investor and Investor’s broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144.

 

The Company agrees that damages may be an inadequate remedy for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Section 8 and that Investor shall, whether or not it is pursuing any remedies at law, be entitled to equitable relief in the form of a preliminary or permanent injunction, without having to post any bond or other security, upon any breach or threatened breach of any such terms or provisions. Investor agrees that the Rule 144 rights under this Agreement are subject to the delivery by the Investor of a bona fide fair market offer for a licensing or funding opportunity pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

9.          Assignment of Registration Rights. None of the Parties may assign this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to any Person without the prior consent of the others; provided that without the consent of the other, (i) the Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement and other Transaction Documents to the Successor Company; (ii) the Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations under this agreement to an Affiliate of the Purchaser. In the event of a Reverse Merger Transaction, the Company’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be automatically assigned to the Successor Company, and the Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be construed to give effect to such assignment.

 

10.          Amendment of Registration Rights. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the mutual written consent of the Company and the Investor. Failure of any Party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a Party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

Attn:

 

Re: GLOBAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS, INC. (D/B/A TURN THERAPEUTICS)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We are counsel to GLOBAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS, INC. (D/B/A TURN THERAPEUTICS), a

 

corporation incorporated under the laws of Delaware whose registered office is at 250 North Westlake Blvd. #210, Westlake Village, CA 91362 (the “Company”), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain private placement of shares (the “Offering”), pursuant to which the Company issued to GEM GLOBAL YIELD LLC SCS, a “société en commandite simple” formed under the laws of Luxembourg (the “Investor”)                  shares of common stock (the “Shares”).

 

Pursuant to the Offering, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on                       , the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form             (File No. 333-                        ) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names the Investor as a selling shareholder thereunder.

 

In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the Commission’s staff has advised us by                      that the Commission has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS], and we have no knowledge that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the Commission. Thus, the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

   
  Very truly yours,

Date of Issuance:

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Global Health Solutions, Inc. (d/b/a Turn Therapeutics), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Delaware whose registered office is at 250 North Westlake Blvd. #210, Westlake Village, CA 91362 (together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer” and the “Company”), hereby certifies that GEM Yield Bahamas Limited (“GEM”) or its assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, during the Term (as hereinafter defined), in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, up to            Shares, at an exercise price of $          per Share; provided that, on the first anniversary following the Public Listing Date (the “Adjustment Date”), if all or any portion of this Warrant remains unexercised and the average closing price of the Common Shares for the 10 Trading Days following the Adjustment Date (the “Baseline Price”) is less than 90% of the then current exercise price of this Warrant, then the exercise price of this Warrant shall be adjusted to 105% of the Baseline Price. Capitalized terms used in this Warrant shall have the respective meanings specified in Section 8 hereof, and capitalized terms used but not defined in this Warrant have the meanings given them in the Purchase Agreement. This Warrant is issued in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

 

 

 

1.          Term. The Holder may exercise this Warrant for a period which shall commence on the Public Listing Date, and shall expire at 6:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the date that is the third anniversary of the Public Listing Date (such period being the “Term”).

 

2.          Method of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Warrant; Transfer and Exchange.

 

(a)          Time of Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part during the Term.

 

(b)          Method of Exercise. The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivery to the Issuer of the exercise notice in the form attached hereto.

 

(c)            Cashless Exercise.

 

(i)          Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Per Share Market Value of one Common Share is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, the Holder may exercise this Warrant by a cashless exercise and shall receive the number of Common Shares equal to an amount (as determined below) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer together with the properly endorsed notice of exercise, in which event the Issuer shall issue to the Holder a number of Common Shares computed using the following formula:

   
  X = Y - (A)(Y)
                  B
   
Where X = the number of Common Shares to be issued to the Holder.
   
  Y = the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of all of the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised.
   
  A =  the Warrant Price.
   
  B = the Per Share Market Value of one Common Share.

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for such shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

(d)          Issuance of Shares. On the third Trading Day (the “Delivery Date”) after any exercise of this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, settlement of the Warrant Shares shall occur via “Delivery Versus Payment” (“DVP”) (i.e., on the Closing Date, the Issuer shall issue the Warrant Shares registered in the Holder’s name and address and released by the Issuer’s transfer agent directly to the brokerage account(s) identified by the Holder; upon receipt of such Warrant Shares by the Holder’s broker, payment therefor shall be made by the Holder (or its clearing firm) by wire transfer to the Issuer. The amount of such payment shall be equal to the exercise price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. The Holder shall deliver this original Warrant, or an indemnification reasonably acceptable to the Issuer undertaking with respect to such Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction, at such time that this Warrant is fully exercised. This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for part only of the number of Warrant Shares referenced by this Warrant. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any partial exercise and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the actual number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon such exercise, then the Issuer shall, as soon as practicable, and in no event later than five Business Days after any exercise, and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant of like tenor representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. With respect to partial exercises of this Warrant, the Issuer shall keep written records for the Holder of the number of Warrant Shares exercised as of each date of exercise.

(e)          Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Shares upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Issuer fails upon exercise by the Holder to cause its transfer agent to transmit to register such Warrant Shares in the name of the Holder (or its designee) on or before the Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Shares 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 Issuer shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Issuer was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) 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 or deliver to the Holder the number of Common Shares that would have been issued had the Issuer timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Common Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Issuer shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Issuer written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Issuer. 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 Issuer’s failure to timely deliver such Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(f)          Transferability of Warrant. This Warrant may be transferred by a Holder, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Issuer, (i) at any time, to an Affiliate of the Holder, or (ii) at any time following the Public Listing Date, to any Person. If transferred pursuant to this paragraph, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the principal office of the Issuer for Warrants to purchase the same aggregate number of Warrant Shares, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Shares as the Holder hereof shall designate at the time of such exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the date hereof and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

(g)          Continuing Rights of Holder. The Issuer will, at the time of, or at any time after, each exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, provided that if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such rights to such Holder.

 

(h)           Compliance with Securities Laws.

 

(i)          The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

 

(ii)          Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all certificates representing Warrant Shares issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

 

NEITHER THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY, (B) IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (C) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH SALE, FURNISHED TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, IN EITHER CASE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.

(iii)          The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing any of the Warrant Shares, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer. Such proposed transfer will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that the registration or qualification of such securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act or state securities laws covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act and the securities have been qualified under state securities laws, (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the Holder provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer will respond to any such notice from a holder within five Trading Days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(h), the Issuer will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Issuer. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(h) shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other Section of this Warrant. Whenever a certificate representing the Warrant Shares is required to be issued to a the Holder without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares, the Issuer shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder or Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement).

 

(i)  Accredited Investor Status. In no event may the Holder exercise this Warrant in whole or in part unless the Holder is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act.

 

3.            Shares Fully Paid; Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants.

 

(a)          Shares Fully Paid; Reservation. The Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or otherwise hereunder will, when issued in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by or through the Issuer. The Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a number of authorized but unissued Common Shares equal to at least one hundred fifty (150%) of the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercise.

 

 5 

 

 

(b)          Registration; Listing. If any Common Shares required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder require registration or qualification with any Governmental Authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its best efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to cause such shares to be duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list any Common Shares on any securities exchange or market it will, at its expense, list thereon, and maintain and increase when necessary such listing, of, all Warrant Shares from time to time issued upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder (provided that such Warrant Shares have been registered pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act then in effect), and, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued Warrant Shares which are at any time issuable hereunder, so long as any Common Shares shall be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each securities exchange or market, and will maintain such listing of, any other securities which the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed on such securities exchange or market by the Issuer.

 

(c)          Covenants. The Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the Certificate of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Issuer, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other 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 the Holder hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will (i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common Shares to exceed the then effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or modify any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Holder, (iii) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iv) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

(d)          Loss, Theft, Destruction of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory to the Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Issuer will 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 number of Common Shares remaining available upon exercise of the Warrant which has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.

 

(e)          Payment of Taxes. The Issuer will pay all transfer and issuance taxes attributable to the preparation, issuance and delivery of this Warrant (and any replacement Warrants) including, without limitation, all documentary and stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates representing Warrant Shares or registration of such Warrant Shares in book-entry form, as applicable, in a name other than that of the Holder in respect to which such shares are issued.

4.          Adjustment of Warrant Price. The price at which such Warrant Shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant and/or the number of Warrant Shares issuable shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Issuer shall give the Holder notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 5.

 

(a)          Recapitalization, Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In the event that the Holder has elected not to exercise this Warrant prior to the consummation of a Change of Control, so long as the Surviving Corporation pursuant to any Change of Control is a company that has a class of equity securities registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its common shares are listed or quoted on a U.S. national securities exchange, the Surviving Corporation and/or each Person (other than the Issuer) which may be required to deliver any Securities, cash or property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the Holder of this Warrant, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant, including, without limitation, those under the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below) (and if the Issuer shall survive the consummation of such Change of Control, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Issuer from, any continuing obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant), and (B) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such Securities, cash or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(a), such Holder shall be entitled to receive, and the Surviving Corporation and/or each such Person shall have similarly delivered to such Holder an opinion of counsel for the Surviving Corporation and/or each such Person, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, or in the alternative, a written acknowledgement executed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Issuer, stating that this Warrant shall thereafter continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof (including, without limitation, all of the provisions of this Section 4(a)) shall be applicable to the Securities, cash or property which the Surviving Corporation and/or each such Person may be required to deliver upon any exercise of this Warrant or the exercise of any rights pursuant hereto. If following such a Change of Control, the Surviving Corporation does not have a registered class of equity securities and common shares listed on a U.S. national securities exchange as described in the first sentence of this Section 4(a), then the Holder shall be entitled to receive compensation in accordance with the terms of Section 4.13 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(b)           Share Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Issuer shall:

 

(i)           make or issue or set a record date for the holders of the Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Common Shares,

 

(ii)           subdivide its outstanding Common Shares into a larger number of Common Shares, or

 

 7 

 

 

(iii)           combine its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares,

 

then (1) the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of Common Shares which a record holder of the same number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.

 

(c)          Certain Other Distributions. If at any time the Issuer shall make or issue or set a record date for the holders of the Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other distribution of:

 

(i)          cash,

 

(ii)          any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Common Share Equivalents or Additional Common Shares), or

 

(iii)          any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Common Share Equivalents or Additional Common Shares),

 

then (1) the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Per Share Market Value of Common Shares at the date of taking such record and (B) the denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount allocable to one share of Common Shares of any such cash so distributable and of the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm mutually agreed upon by the Issuer and the Holder) of any and all such evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into Common Shares and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Shares of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4(c) and, if the outstanding Common Shares shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of Common Shares as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding Common Shares within the meaning of Section 4(b).

 

 8 

 

 

(d)          Issuance of Additional Common Shares. In the event the Issuer shall at any time following the Public Listing Date issue any Additional Common Shares (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (b) through (c) of this Section 4), at a price per share less than the Warrant Price then in effect or without consideration, then the Warrant Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to the price equal to the consideration per share paid for such Additional Common Shares.

 

(e)          Issuance of Common Share Equivalents. In the event the Issuer shall at any time following the Public Listing Date take a record of the holders of its Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving corporation) issue or sell, any Common Share Equivalents, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Shares are issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, or if, after any such issuance of Common Share Equivalents, the price per share for which Additional Common Shares may be issuable thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended shall be less than the Warrant Price in effect at the time of such amendment or adjustment, then the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted as provided in Section 4(d). No further adjustments of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Shares upon conversion or exchange of such Common Share Equivalents.

 

(f)          Other Provisions applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect provided for in this Section 4:

 

(i)          Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any Additional Common Shares or any Common Share Equivalents (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Issuer therefor shall be the amount of the cash received by the Issuer therefor, or, if such Additional Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents are offered by the Issuer for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such Additional Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price (in any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or accrued dividends and without taking into account any compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Issuer for and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof). In connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Issuer is the Surviving Corporation (other than any consolidation or merger in which the previously outstanding Common Shares of the Issuer shall be changed to or exchanged for the stock, ordinary or common shares, or other securities of another corporation), the amount of consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value, as determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board, of such portion of the assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as the Board may determine to be attributable to such Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents, as the case may be. The consideration for any Additional Common Shares issuable pursuant to any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such warrants or other rights plus the additional consideration payable to the Issuer upon exercise of such warrants or other rights.

 

 9 

 

 

The consideration for any Additional Common Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of any Common Share Equivalents shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase such Common Share Equivalents, plus the consideration paid or payable to the Issuer in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such Common Share Equivalents, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to the Issuer upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Share Equivalents. In the event of any consolidation or merger of the Issuer in which the Issuer is not the Surviving Corporation or in which the previously outstanding Common Shares of the Issuer shall be changed into or exchanged for the stock, ordinary or common shares, or other securities of another corporation, or in the event of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer for stock, ordinary or common shares, or other securities of any corporation, the Issuer shall be deemed to have issued a number of Common Shares for stock, ordinary or common shares, or securities or other property of the other corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which the transaction was predicated, and for a consideration equal to the fair market value on the date of such transaction of all such stock, ordinary or common shares, or securities or other property of the other corporation. In the event any consideration received by the Issuer for any securities consists of property other than cash, the fair market value thereof at the time of issuance or as otherwise applicable shall be as determined in good faith by the Board. In the event Common Shares are issued with other shares or securities or other assets of the Issuer for consideration which covers both, the consideration computed as provided in this Section 4(f)(i) shall be allocated among such securities and assets as determined in good faith by the Board.

 

(ii)          When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or combination of Common Shares, as provided for in Section 4(b)) up to, but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less than one percent of the Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 4 and not previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

 

(iii)          Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Shares shall be taken into account to the nearest one hundredth (1/100th) of a share.

 

(iv)          When Adjustment Not Required. If the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to shareholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.

 

 10 

 

 

(g)          Form of Warrant after Adjustments. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

5.          Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant Share Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof (for purposes of this Section 5, each an “adjustment”), the Issuer shall cause its Chief Financial Officer to prepare and execute a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated (including a description of the basis on which the Board made any determination hereunder), and the Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant promptly after each adjustment. Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of this Warrant with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate may at the option of the Holder of this Warrant be submitted to a national or regional accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Holder, provided that the Issuer shall have ten (10) days after receipt of notice from such Holder of its selection of such firm to object thereto, in which case such Holder shall select another such firm and the Issuer shall have no such right of objection. The firm selected by the Holder of this Warrant as provided in the preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such matters to the Issuer and such Holder within thirty (30) days after submission to it of such dispute. Such opinion shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. The costs and expenses of the initial accounting firm shall be paid equally by the Issuer and the Holder and, in the case of an objection by the Issuer, the costs and expenses of the subsequent accounting firm shall be paid in full by the Issuer.

 

6.          Fractional Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional shares, the Issuer shall round the number of shares to be issued upon exercise up to the nearest whole number of shares.

 

7.          Ownership Cap and Exercise Restriction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, at no time may a Holder of this Warrant exercise this Warrant if the number of Common Shares to be issued pursuant to such exercise would exceed, when aggregated with all Other Common Shares owned by such Holder and its Affiliates at such time, the number of Common Shares which would result in such Holder and its Affiliates beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 12(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding Common Shares; provided, however, that upon a Holder of this Warrant providing the Issuer with sixty-one (61) days’ notice (pursuant to Section 12 hereof) (the “Waiver Notice”) that such Holder would like to waive this Section 7 with regard to any or all Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, this Section 7 will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of the Warrant referenced in the Waiver Notice until the date that the Holder notifies the Issuer (pursuant to Section 12 hereof) that the Holder revokes the Waiver Notice; provided, further, that during the sixty-one (61) day period prior to the expiration of the Term, the Holder may waive this Section 7 by providing a Waiver Notice at any time during such sixty-one (61) day period.

 

 11

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, in addition to any other remedies available at law or equity or as set forth herein, in the Purchase Agreement or otherwise, if (i) the Company shall have failed to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or (ii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, in each case, for any reason or no reason, then the Company shall pay to Purchaser or its designee an amount equal to $10,000 for each day following the Filing Deadline or Effectiveness Deadline, as applicable, until the Registration Statement has been filed with the Commission or the Registration Statement has been declared effective, as applicable.

(b)            Rule 424 Prospectus. The Company shall, as required by applicable securities regulations, from time to time file with the Commission, pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, the prospectus, amendments and prospectus supplements, if any, to be used in connection with offers and sales of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement. The Investor and Legal Counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such prospectus prior to its filing with the Commission. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon such prospectus within two Trading Days from the date the Investor receives the proposed final version of such prospectus.

 

(c)            Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the number of shares available under the Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall file one or more additional Registration Statements (each a “New Registration Statement”), so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities as soon as practicable, but in any case not later than twenty (20) Trading Days after the necessity therefor arises. The Company shall use it reasonable best efforts to cause each such New Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

 

(d)            Piggyback Registrations. Without limiting any of the Company’s obligations hereunder or under the Purchase Agreement, if there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-8 (as promulgated under the Securities Act) or its equivalent relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s option or other employee benefit plans), then the Company shall deliver to the Investor a written notice of such determination and, if within five days after the date of the delivery of such notice, the Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities the offer and sale of which the Investor requests to be registered.

 

(e)            No Inclusion of Other Securities. In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) or 2(c) without the prior written consent of the Investor.

 

4

 

(f)             Offering. If the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) or the Commission seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) (or as otherwise may be acceptable to the Investor), or if after the filing of the initial Registration Statement with the Commission pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company is otherwise required by the Staff or the Commission to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such initial Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such initial Registration Statement (with the prior consent of the Investor and Legal Counsel as to the specific Registrable Securities to be removed therefrom, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, denied, or conditioned) until such time as the Staff and the Commission shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if after giving effect to the actions referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, the Staff or the Commission does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) (or as otherwise may be acceptable to the Investor), the Company shall not request acceleration of the Effective Date of such Registration Statement and, in its sole and absolute discretion, may take such steps as may be required for such Registration Statement to become effective pursuant to Section 8 of the Securities Act. If not, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 48 hours) request the withdrawal of such Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act, and the Effectiveness Deadline shall automatically be deemed to have elapsed with respect to such Registration Statement at such time as the Staff or the Commission has made a final and non-appealable determination that the Commission will not permit such Registration Statement to be so utilized (unless prior to such time the Company and the Investor have received assurances from the Staff or the Commission reasonably acceptable to Legal Counsel that a new Registration Statement filed by the Company with the Commission promptly thereafter may be so utilized). In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall file additional Registration Statements in accordance with Section 2(c) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use by the Investor.

 

3.            Related Obligations. With respect to the Registration Statement and whenever any Registrable Securities are to be registered pursuant to Section 2 including on any New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

(a)            The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to any registration statement and any prospectus and prospectus supplement used in connection with such registration statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such registration statement.

 

(b)            The Company shall permit the Investor to review and comment upon the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least two Trading Days prior to their filing with the Commission, and not file any document in a form to which Investor reasonably objects. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto within two (2) Trading Days from the date the Investor receives the final version thereof. The Company shall furnish to the Investor, without charge, any correspondence from the Commission or the staff of the Commission to the Company or its representatives relating to the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement.

 

5

 

(c)            Upon request of the Investor, the Company shall furnish to the Investor, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the Commission, at least one copy of such registration statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits; (ii) upon the effectiveness of any registration statement, a copy of the prospectus included in such registration statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably request); and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to the Investor via the Commission’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “furnished to the Investor” hereunder.

 

(d)            The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investor reasonably requests; (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period; (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period; and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

(e)            As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or facts, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the happening of any event or existence of such facts as a result of which the prospectus included in any registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such registration statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a copy of such supplement or amendment to the Investor (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a registration statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to the Investor by email on the same day of such effectiveness); (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any registration statement or related prospectus or related information; and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a registration statement would be appropriate.

 

6

 

(f)             The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any registration statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

(g)            The Company shall (i) cause all the Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange; or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities on the Principal Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section.

(i)             The Company shall at all times maintain the services of a transfer agent and registrar with respect to its Common Shares.

 

(j)             If reasonably requested by the Investor, the Company shall (i) immediately incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably believes should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any registration statement.

 

(k)            The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by any registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

 

(l)             Within three Trading Days after any registration statement which includes the Registrable Securities is declared effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investor) confirmation that such registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Thereafter, if requested by the Purchaser at any time, the Company shall require its counsel to deliver to the Purchaser a written confirmation whether or not the effectiveness of such registration statement has lapsed at any time for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) and whether or not the registration statement is current and available to the Purchaser for sale of all of the Registrable Securities.

(b)            In connection with the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement, the Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement or any New Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about the Investor furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use in connection with such registration statement; and, subject to Section 6(d), the Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 9.

 

(c)            Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6 deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

11

 

(d)            The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

 

(e)            The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

 

7.            Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

8.Reports and Disclosures under the Securities Acts.

 

With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees, at the Company’s sole expense, to:

 

(a)            make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

 

(b)            file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144;

 

(c)            furnish to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting and/ or disclosure provisions of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration (for the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to the Investor via the Commission’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “furnished to the Investor” hereunder); and

 

(d)            take such additional action as is requested by the Investor to enable the Investor to sell the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144, including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Company’s transfer agent as may be requested from time to time by the Investor and otherwise reasonably cooperate with Investor and Investor’s broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144.

 

The Company agrees that damages may be an inadequate remedy for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Section 8 and that Investor shall, whether or not it is pursuing any remedies at law, be entitled to equitable relief in the form of a preliminary or permanent injunction, without having to post any bond or other security, upon any breach or threatened breach of any such terms or provisions. Investor agrees that the Rule 144 rights under this Agreement are subject to the delivery by the Investor of a bona fide fair market offer for a licensing or funding opportunity pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

9.            Assignment of Registration Rights. None of the Parties may assign this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to any Person without the prior consent of the others; provided that without the consent of the other, (i) the Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement and other Transaction Documents to the Successor Company; (ii) the Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations under this agreement to an Affiliate of the Purchaser. In the event of a Reverse Merger Transaction, the Company’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be automatically assigned to the Successor Company, and the Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be construed to give effect to such assignment.

 

10.            Amendment of Registration Rights. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the mutual written consent of the Company and the Investor. Failure of any Party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a Party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

 

13

Re: GLOBAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS, INC. (D/B/A TURN THERAPEUTICS)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We are counsel to GLOBAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS, INC. (D/B/A TURN THERAPEUTICS), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Delaware whose registered office is at 250 North Westlake Blvd. #210, Westlake Village, CA 91362 (the “Company”), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain private placement of shares (the “Offering”), pursuant to which the Company issued to GEM GLOBAL YIELD LLC SCS, a “société en commandite simple” formed under the laws of Luxembourg (the “Investor”)                shares of common stock (the “Shares”).

 

Pursuant to the Offering, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on               , the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form                (File No. 333-              ) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names the Investor as a selling shareholder thereunder.

 

In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the Commission’s staff has advised us by                that the Commission has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS], and we have no knowledge that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the Commission. Thus, the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

  Very truly yours,
