ITEM 1.01 Amendment of Material Definitive Agreements.
During the last week of August 2017, the Company entered into
various agreements (the “Agreements”), that resulted in
the retirement of the then outstanding debentures, preferred stock
and warrants for the purchase of common stock, previously issued by
the Company (the “Old Securities”). In exchange for the
Old Securities, the holders of the Old Securities (the
“Holders”), received newly issued common stock,
warrants for the purchase of common stock and in some cases, shares
of newly issued Series J Preferred Stock convertible into common
stock. The common stock received by the Holders pursuant to the
Agreements together with the common stock issuable upon the
exercise of newly issued warrants and upon the conversion of Series
J Preferred stock is referred to hereinafter as the “New
Stock”. Pursuant to the Agreements, for a period of one year,
any Holder cannot on any given day sale a larger percentage of the
total common stock of the Company traded on that day than the
percentage of the Holder’s New Stock when compared to all New
Stock issued under the Agreements (a Holder’s “Allotted
Shares”).
Effective October 10, 2017, the Agreements were amended to adjust
New Stock sales restrictions as follows: (1) no New Stock may be
sold for a price of less than $7.00 per share until after November
30, 2017; (2) after December 1, 2017, a Holder’s Allotted
Shares for one day may be sold on that day or over the subsequent
five trading days; and (3) all trading restrictions shall terminate
if and when the Company issues any securities for capital raising
purposes.
ITEM 9.01 Exhibit.
Attached as Exhibit 99 is a copy of
the press release issued in connection with the modification of
trading restrictions discussed in Item 1.01 above.
