Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

On July 1 through July 7, 2014, we closed on agreements with institutional and accredited investors (the “Investors”) for the sale and purchase of 1,717,152 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value at a purchase price of $0.60 per share (the “Shares”).

 

We received $1,030,291 in gross proceeds from the offering. We anticipate using the net proceeds from this placement for general working capital.

 

In conjunction with the placement, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with the Investors, whereby we are obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission on or before forty-five calendar days after July 1, 2014 to register the resale by the Investors of the 1,717,152 shares of the common stock purchased in the placement.

 

The description of the offering does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Form of Purchase Agreement by and among us and Investors and the Form of Registration Rights Agreement by and among us and Investors which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

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

 

This report contains forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements related to our future activities or future events or conditions.  These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based, in part, on assumptions made by our management.  These statements are not guarantees of future performances and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.  Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those risks discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other documents that we file from time to time with the SEC.  Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report, except as required by law.
