  EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On May 24, 2019, Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a current report on Form 8-K (the “Original Report”) to report an underwritten public offering by the Company.

 

This current report on Form 8-K/A amends and supplements the Original Report by (i) amending Item 1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement to reflect the new exercise price of the warrants issued in connection with the offering based on the finalization of a warrant exercise price adjustment, which became determinable as of the close of trading on December 27, 2019, (ii) revising Exhibit 4.1 to correct certain typographical errors, and (iii) adding the Notice of Adjustment of Exercise Price as Exhibit 99.1. This current report on Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Report and, except as stated above, no other information contained in the Original Report has been amended.

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 22, 2019, Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., on behalf of themselves and as representatives to the several underwriters named in Schedule A to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriters”), relating to the underwritten public offering of 6,666,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 6,666,667 shares of the Common Stock (the “Warrants”), at a combined price to the public of $1.50 per share. Each Warrant had an original exercise price of $2.00 per share and is currently exercisable at an exercise price of $0.38 per share, subject to further adjustment in certain circumstances, and expires on May 24, 2024, five years from the date of its issuance. The shares of the Common Stock and the Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately, but will be sold in combination, with one Warrant to purchase one share of the Common Stock accompanying each share of the Common Stock sold, except as may be elected by the purchasers thereof.

 

The offering was made pursuant to a shelf registration statement the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-3 (File No. 333-218517), declared effective on June 16, 2017, and a related prospectus supplement. The gross proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Common Stock and Warrants are expected to be approximately $10.0 million. Net proceeds to the Company, after deducting the underwriting discounts and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are expected to be approximately $9.1 million. The offering is expected to close on May 24, 2019, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

 

Warrants

 

The Warrants may be exercised at any time or from time to time during the period beginning on the date of issuance and expiring on the fifth-year anniversary of such issuance date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holder will be prohibited from exercising each Warrant for shares of the Common Stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company.

 

Pursuant to Section 2(b) of the Warrants, as a result of a direct registered offering by the Company which was announced on December 19, 2020 and closed on December 20, 2019 (the “New Offering”), the exercise price of the Warrants has been reduced to $0.38. This amount is equal to the lower of (x) the consideration paid for the securities issued in the New Offering, or $0.45 per share, (y) the lowest exercise price of the warrants issued in the New Offering, or $0.5402, and (z) the lowest one-day volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market as measured each day during the five trading day period starting on December 19, 2019, rounded to the nearest share, or $0.38. On or about December 30, 2019, the Warrant holders are being delivered a Notice of Adjustment of Exercise Price with respect to the foregoing adjustment.

 

Subject to applicable laws, the Warrants are separately tradeable immediately after issuance at the option of the holders of the Warrants and may be transferred at the option of the holders. There is no established trading market for the Warrants, and a trading market may not develop. In addition, the Company does not intend to apply for the listing of the Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market.

 

 

 

 

The Company has engaged VStock Transfer, LLC to act as the Company’s agent in connection with the issuance, registration, transfer, exchange, exercise and replacement of the Warrants and the delivery of the shares of the Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants. The Warrants will initially be issued in book-entry form.

 

Before entering into any “fundamental transaction,” as defined in the form of Warrant and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of the Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties or assets, consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of the Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by the outstanding Common Stock, the Company must cause the successor entity to agree to provide the right to the holders of the Warrants to receive, upon exercise of the Warrants, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In the event of a fundamental transaction of which the Company are not the surviving entity and certain other fundamental transactions, the Company or any successor entity will pay, at the holder's option, exercisable at any time concurrently with or within 90 days after the consummation of the fundamental transaction, an amount of cash equal to the value of the Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model and the terms of the Warrants.
