Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

From March 20, 2015 to March 31, 2015, Cryoport, Inc. (the “Registrant”) entered into definitive agreements for a private placement of its securities to certain institutional and accredited investors (the “Investors”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,290,852 (approximately $1,135,521 after estimated cash offering expenses) pursuant to certain Subscription Agreements between the Registrant and the Investors (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”). The Registrant intends to use the net proceeds for working capital purposes.

 

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Registrant issued shares of Class B Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase common stock of the Registrant (“Common Stock”). The shares and warrants were issued as a unit (a “Unit”) consisting of (i) one share of Class B Preferred Stock of the Registrant (“Preferred Stock”) and (ii) one warrant to purchase eight (8) shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, which shall be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time on or before May 31, 2020. A total of 107,571 Units were issued in exchange for gross proceeds of $1,290,852 or $12.00 per Unit.

 

Emergent Financial Group, Inc. served as the Registrant’s placement agent in this transaction and received, with respect to gross proceeds received from the Investors, a commission of 10% and a non-accountable finance fee of 3% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from such Investors, plus reimbursement of legal expenses of up to $5,000. Emergent Financial Group, Inc. will also be issued a warrant to purchase three shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for each Unit issued in this transaction. The Registrant and Emergent Financial Group, Inc. have agreed that the offering of Units to Investors will be extended through April 13, 2015.

 

Through March 31, 2015, aggregate gross cash proceeds of $1.9 million (approximately $1.7 million after offering costs) were collected in exchange for the issuance of 161,709 shares of our Class B Preferred Stock, and warrants, exercisable for five years, to purchase 1,293,672 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

 

The foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreements and the warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each of the aforementioned documents, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 4.1 to the Registrant’s Form 8-K filed on February 20, 2015.

 

Item 3.02 Recent Sale of Unregistered Securities.

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The sale and issuance of the Units was completed in accordance with the exemption provided by Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, in that such sale and issuance was made without any public offering to “accredited investors,” as that term is defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.
