Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 22, 2024, Minim, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Letter Agreement re Product Purchase (the “Letter Agreement”) and a Debt Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement,” and with the Letter Agreement, the “Agreements”) with Motorola Mobility, LLC (“Motorola”). Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company (A) initially transferred a portion of its inventory to Motorola and (B) agreed to transfer the reminder of such inventory upon receipt of the funding discussed below (the “Funding”) in order to satisfy liabilities owed to Motorola, while agreeing to continue to provide certain customer and technical support. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed (i) to pay Motorola a settlement amount upon the Funding and (ii) to transfer additional funds as collected from the Company’s customers. The Company believes that the Agreements, together with arrangements it has finalized with other major vendors, will allow the Company to streamline its operations while reducing its current liabilities.
On January 23, 2024, the Company, entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with David Lazar (“Lazar”), a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, whereby the Company will sell and whereby Lazar will purchase two million eight hundred thousand 2,800,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”), at a price per share of $1.00, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,800,000, subject to the conditions described below pursuant to the exemptions afforded by the Securities Act and Regulation S thereunder. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to designate 2,800,000 of the Preferred Stock as Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) for the sale to Lazar. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, into one share of common stock of the Company, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and vote on an “as-if-converted” basis and shall have full ratchet protection in any subsequent offerings.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall also issue Lazar a warrant to purchase up to an additional 2,800,000 shares of Common Stock, with an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share, subject to adjustment therein.
Under the applicable Nasdaq rules and the Purchase Agreement, in the absence of shareholder approval, the Company may only issue to Lazar upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock such number of shares of Common Stock, equal to the lower of either, (X) the maximum percentage of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock that can be issued to the Holder without requiring a vote of the shareholders of the Company under the rules and regulations of the Trading Market on which the Common Stock trades on such date and applicable securities laws; or, (Y) 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date of issuance.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and Lazar, limitations and conditions regarding sales of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock, indemnification rights and other obligations of the parties. Furthermore, the Purchase Agreement contains certain conditions to closing, including, shareholder approval of (i) a one for three reverse stock split of the Common Stock, (ii) the increase in authorized shares of Preferred Stock to 10,000,000, (iii) the Certificate of Designation of the rights and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock of 2,800,000 shares, and the issuance of such shares to Lazar; and (iv) removal from the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of limitations on adopting shareholder resolutions via majority without holding a shareholders meeting.
Lazar has agreed that he will not engage in or effect, directly or indirectly, any short sales involving the Company’s securities or any hedging transaction that transfers the economic risk of ownership of the Common Stock. Additionally, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously adopted resolutions (i) exempting Lazar’s acquisition of the Series A Preferred Stock from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 and (ii) granting the Purchaser the right to sell, assign or otherwise transfer either the Series A Preferred Stock (as well as any Common Stock underlying any such Series A Preferred Stock) and/or its rights to acquire the Series A Preferred Stock (as well as any Common Stock underlying any such Securities) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Rights”), including by way of option for Purchaser to sell and/or a transferee thereof to purchase, the Securities Purchase Rights.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any shares of Preferred Stock, nor shall there be any sale of shares of Preferred Stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
