Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, on February 22, 2023, BiomX Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) relating to a private placement (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of 30,608,164 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”), including shares issuable upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants (“Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock (each, a “Security” and collectively, the “Securities”), at a purchase price of $0.245 per Share and $0.244 per Pre-Funded Warrant.
On February 27, 2023, the Company completed the first closing of the Offering and issued an aggregate of 5,975,919 Securities for gross proceeds of approximately $1.5 million. As a condition to the closing, on February 27, 2023, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors participating in the Offering. Such Registration Rights Agreement provides the investors with certain registration rights that, among other things, will require the Company to file a registration statement with respect to re-sales of the Shares and shares of common stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants issued pursuant to the Offering.
The Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the Securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
In addition, the form of Pre-Funded Warrant is being re-filed herewith to reflect certain corrections to the form previously filed.
