Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 5, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), IntelGenx Technologies Corp. (the "Company") closed an offering by way of private placement in the United States (the "Private Placement") of unsecured convertible notes (the "Notes"). Each Note bears interest at a rate of 8% (payable quarterly, in arrears, with the first payment being due on September 1, 2021), matures on July 31, 2025 and is convertible, after a six-month holding period from the Initial Closing Date, into common stock of the Company (the "Common Shares") at a conversion price of $0.40 per share (the "Conversion Price"). The Notes issued on the Closing Date pursuant to the Private Placement were issued for gross proceeds of approximately $2.1 million.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement for its Montelukast study, working capital and the Company's expenses of the Offering.
Cantone Research, Inc. ("Cantone") acted as placement agent in respect of the Private Placement.
In connection with the Private Placement, Cantone is entitled to a cash commission of approximately $199,525 and non-transferable warrants entitling Cantone to purchase 613,000 Common Shares (the "Placement Agent Warrants"). The Placement Agent Warrants are exercisable into Common Shares at the Conversion Price and will expire in two years from the Closing Date.
The foregoing is a summary of certain material terms and conditions of the Notes and are not a complete discussion of such agreements. Accordingly, the foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Note attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference.
