Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November 28, 2007, Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. (the Company) entered into a
Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with certain institutional investors
(the Investors) to sell units, each of one share of the Companys common stock (the Common
Stock) and a warrant to purchase 0.50 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $6.00 per
unit, resulting in the issuance on that date of an aggregate of 2,158,337 shares of Common Stock
(the Shares) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,079,169 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $7.18 per share (the Warrants). The Warrants are exercisable at any time
during the period from November 28, 2008 to November 28, 2012. Generally, a Warrant, or a part
thereof, is not exercisable, if, upon such exercise, the number of shares of Common Stock held or
beneficially owned by the Investor would exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then
issued and outstanding. This restriction, however, can be waived by the Investor upon written
notice to the Company.
In connection with entering into the Purchase Agreement, on November 28, 2007, the Company
also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors (the Registration Rights
Agreement). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company will file a registration
statement (the Registration Statement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
Commission) to register, within 45 days after the closing date, the Shares and the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the Warrant Shares) for resale by the
Investors. The Company also agreed to use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement
declared effective within 60 days after the filing date of the Registration Statement (the Filing
Date) or within 120 days after the Filing Date if the Commission determines to review the
Registration Statement. If the Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission within 45
days after the closing date, the Company must pay each Investor an amount in cash or Common Stock,
at the Companys election, equal to 1.5% of the purchase price of the Shares and Warrants paid by
each Investor for every 30 calendar day period (or pro rata portion if fewer than 30 calendar days)
the Registration Statement is not filed. If the Commission has not declared the Registration
Statement effective within 60 days of the Filing Date or within 120 days after the Filing Date if
there is a review of the Registration Statement by the Commission, then the Company must pay each
Investor an amount in cash or Common Stock, at the Companys election, equal to 1.5% of the
purchase price of the Shares and Warrants paid by each Investor for every 30 calendar day period
(or pro rata portion if fewer than 30 calendar days) during which the Registration Statement has
not been declared effective. The maximum aggregate of all registration delay payments payable by
the Company shall not exceed 10% of the total purchase price paid by the Investors for the Shares
and Warrants. The Company will pay all expenses incurred in connection with a registration of the
Shares and the Warrant Shares.
The foregoing summary of terms of the Purchase Agreement, Warrants and Registration Rights
Agreement are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the Purchase Agreement, the form of
Warrant, and the Registration Rights Agreement attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as
Exhibits 10.20, 10.21, and 4.1, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, on November 28, 2007, the Company issued warrants
to acquire 80,000 shares of its Common Stock (the Agent Warrants) in a private placement exempt
from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The Agent Warrants will have an
exercise price of $10.00 per share and are exercisable at any time during the period from November 28,
2008 to November 28, 2012. The Agent Warrants were issued as compensation for services provided to
the Company by RJ Aubrey IR Services LLC (RJ Aubrey) in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing summary of terms of the Agent Warrants is subject to, and qualified in its
entirety by, the Warrant Agreement, dated November 28, 2007, with RJ Aubrey attached to this
Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 4.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement is
incorporated herein by reference.
2
Based upon the representations and warranties of the Investors contained in the Purchase
Agreement, including but not limited to the representation that each Purchaser is acquiring the
Shares and Warrants for its own account for investment and not for resale or with a view to
distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act)
and the representation that each Purchaser is an accredited investor, the offer and sale of the
Common Stock and Warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from securities registration afforded
by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the provisions of Regulation D, as promulgated by the
Commission thereunder.
Based upon the representation by RJ Aubrey (a) that it is a financially sophisticated
accredited investor which had access to information relating to the investment, and (b) that the
Agent Warrants were sold in a manner not involving general solicitation or advertising, the offer
and sale of the Agent Warrants were made pursuant to the exemption from securities registration
afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the provisions of Regulation D, as promulgated
by the Commission thereunder.

On November 28, 2007, the Company issued a press release announcing the signing and closing of
