Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Commencing June 30, 2008 through July 7, 2008, Bonanza Oil & Gas, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into and closed a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "June 2008 Purchase Agreement") with several accredited investors (the “June 2008 Investors”) providing for the sale by the Company to the June 2008 Investors of units with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one common stock purchase warrant half of which are exercisable at $1.00 (the “A June 2008 Warrant”) and half are exercisable at $2.00 (the “B June 2008 Warrant”). The per unit purchase price for the units was $0.60 resulting in proceeds of approximately $1,168,000 to the Company and the issuance of 1,946,666 shares of common stock, A June 2008 Warrants issuable to purchase 973,333 shares of common stock and B June 2008 Warrants issuable to purchase 973,333 shares of common stock.
The A June 2008 Warrants are exercisable for a period of two years at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and the B June 2008 Warrants are exercisable for a period of two years at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. In the event that the Company issues securities at a per share price less than the exercise price, then the exercise price associated with the A June 2008 Warrants and B June 2008 Warrants shall be adjusted to equal such price. Further, if the Company issues securities at a price less than $0.60, thenthe June 2008 Investors will be entitled to receive additional shares of common stock to reflect the issuance of the additional shares. However, no adjustment will be made for issuances relating to shares of common stock or options to employees, officers, consultants or directors of the Company, securities outstanding as of the date of the closing or securities issued in connection with acquisitions or strategic transactions.
The June 2008 Investors have contractually agreed to restrict its ability to exercise their warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of the Company’s common stock held by each of the June 2008 Investors after such exercise does not exceed 4.9% of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder since, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering, the June 2008 Investors are accredited investor, the June 2008 Investors had access to information about the Company and its investment, the June 2008 Investors took the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.
