Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, Agile Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) issued warrants on July 6, 2022 and May 25, 2023, each of which were amended on December 3, 2023 (collectively the “Warrants”) to a certain investor, collectively representing the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,892,572 shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”), at an exercise price of $3.69 per share.
On February 22, 2024, the Company entered into a warrant exercise agreement (the “Exercise Agreement”) with this certain holder of its Warrants (the “Exercising Holder”) wherein the Exercising Holder agreed to exercise the Warrants for cash, at an exercise price reduced by the Company to $1.25 per share (the “Warrant Exercise”).
The gross proceeds from the Warrant Exercise are expected to be approximately $4.8 million. The closing is expected to occur on February 26, 2024 subject to customary closing conditions.
In consideration for the Warrant Exercise, the Company issued new unregistered warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “New Warrants”). The New Warrants are exercisable for an aggregate of up to 7,785,144 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and will be immediately exercisable upon issuance. 3,992,572 of the New Warrants will have a term of five years from the issuance date and 3,792,572 of the New Warrants will have a term of eighteen months from the issuance date. The exercise price of the New Warrants is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse splits, and similar capital transactions as described in the New Warrants.
H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC acted as placement agent and financial advisor in connection with the transaction and will receive a cash fee of 7.0% of the gross proceeds resulting from the Warrant Exercise, a management fee of 1.0% of the gross proceeds resulting from the Warrant Exercise and warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 5.0% of the number of Warrants exercised at an exercise price of $1.5625.
The New Warrants were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants. Pursuant to the Exercise Agreement, the Company agreed not to issue any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents or to file any other registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (in each case, subject to certain exceptions) until fifteen (15) days after the closing date.
