On February 14, 2023, T2 Biosystems, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten offering of 9,018,519 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in lieu of Common Stock for certain investors, pre-funded warrants (“Pre-funded Warrants”) to purchase 2,092,592 shares of Common Stock, and warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase 22,222,222 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Offering”). The closing of the Offering is expected to take place on February 17, 2023. All of the Shares, Pre-funded Warrants and Warrants are being sold by the Company. Each of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants will be sold in combination with an accompanying Warrant to purchase two shares of Common Stock. The combined purchase price for each Share and accompanying Warrant is $1.08, and for each Pre-funded Warrant and accompanying Warrant is $1.079, which is equal to the combined purchase price for each Share and accompanying Warrant being sold in the Offering, minus $0.001, which is the Pre-funded Warrant’s exercise price per share. The net proceeds from the Offering are expected to be approximately $10.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company does not intend to list the Pre-funded Warrants or Warrants on Nasdaq or any other nationally recognized securities exchange or trading system.
The Pre-funded Warrants have (i) an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to $0.001 per share or (ii) a cashless exercise option for a net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-funded Warrant. The Pre-funded Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and do not expire. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock.
The Warrants have (i) an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to $1.08 per share, (ii) a cashless exercise option for a net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Warrant or (iii) an alternate cashless exercise option (beginning on or after the earlier of (a) the thirty-day anniversary of the date of the Underwriting Agreement and (b) the date on which the aggregate composite trading volume of the Common Stock beginning on the date of the Underwriting Agreement exceeds 40,000,000 shares), to receive an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise and (y) 0.5. The Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and will expire February 17, 2028. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock.
