On April 8, 2010, LightPath Technologies, Inc. (“LightPath” or the “Company”) executed a Securities Purchase Agreement with 7 institutional and private investors, with respect to a private placement of an aggregate of 507,730 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), and warrants to purchase 50,773 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”). The Company shall receive aggregate gross cash proceeds from the issuance of the Common Stock (exclusive of proceeds from any future exercise of the Warrants) in the amount $1,013,390. The Company will use the funds to provide working capital for its operations. Among the investors were James Gaynor and Louis Leeburg, both of whom are directors or officers of LightPath.
The Company has agreed to pay a commission to the exclusive placement agent for the offering, Garden State Securities, Inc., in an amount equal to $103,610 plus costs and expenses. The Company also issued to Garden State and its designees warrants to purchase of an aggregate of 50,773 shares of Common Stock at exercise price equal to $2.48 per share. The Warrants have a five-year term and are exercisable by the investors after October 8, 2010.
The private placement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act (in that the shares of Common Stock were sold by the Company in a transaction not involving any public offering) and pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The shares of Common Stock and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are restricted securities that have not been registered under the Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or applicable exemption from registration requirements.
The Company and the investors also executed a Registration Rights Agreement dated April 8, 2009, pursuant to which the Company has undertaken the obligation to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and cause to be declared effective, a registration statement to register the shares of Common Stock issued in the private placement and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants.
