Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 12, 2023, Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a
securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with a certain
accredited and institutional investor for a private placement ("Private
Placement") for the Company's common stock, pre-funded warrants, each
exercisable to purchase one share of common stock ("Pre-Funded Warrants"), and
warrants, each exercisable to purchase one share of common stock ("Investor
Warrants"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold (i) 2,450,000
shares of its common stock, (ii) Investor Warrants to purchase up to 11,904,762
shares of common stock, and (iii) 3,502,381 Pre-Funded Warrants with each
Pre-Funded Warrant exercisable for one share of common stock. Each share of
common stock and accompanying two Investor Warrants were sold together at a
combined offering price of $0.84, and each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying
two Investor Warrants were sold together at a combined offering price of $0.839.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable, at a nominal exercise price
of $0.001, and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants
are exercised in full.
The Investor Warrants have an exercise price of $0.59 per share (subject to
adjustment as set forth therein), are exercisable upon issuance and will expire
five and a half years from the date of issuance.
The Private Placement closed on May 16, 2023. The Company received gross
proceeds from the Private Placement of approximately $5.0 million before
deducting transaction related expenses payable by the Company.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a
registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with the
investor. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will be
required to file a resale registration statement (the "Registration Statement")
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to register for resale
the shares sold under the Purchase Agreement, and the shares issuable upon
exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Investor Warrants, within 15 days
from the closing date of the Private Placement. Pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement, the Company will be required to have the Registration
Statement declared effective by the SEC within 15 days after the filing date or
45 days following the filing date if the Registration Statement is reviewed by
the SEC. The Company will be obligated to pay certain liquidated damages to the
investors if the Company fails to file the resale registration statement when
required, fails to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by
the SEC when required, or if the Company fails to maintain the effectiveness of
the Registration Statement.
Aegis Capital Corp. ("Aegis") acted as the placement agent in connection with
the Private Placement. Pursuant to the placement agent agreement between the
Company and Aegis (the "Placement Agent Agreement"), Aegis was paid a commission
equal to 10% of the gross proceeds received by the Company in the Private
Placement, and a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 2% of the gross
proceeds, and will receive 10% of the proceeds from any exercise of Investor
Warrants, payable on exercise.
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, Pre-Funded Warrants,
Investor Warrants, Registration Rights Agreement, and the Placement Agent
Agreement are qualified by reference to the full text of such documents, which
are filed as exhibits to this report.
