Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Securities Purchase Agreement
On September 19, 2013, MicroVision, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with the investors named therein, including Crede CG III, Ltd., a Bermuda exempted limited company (“Crede” and, collectively, the “Investors”). Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investors (i) an aggregate of 3,492,000 shares (“Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), at a price of $1.88 per Share, and (ii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,095,200 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”) for no additional consideration. The Company has agreed to pay an investment fee to Crede of $290,648. The investment fee will reduce Crede’s aggregate cash investment at closing but will not reduce the cash investment at closing of the other investors.
The issuance and sale of the Shares and the Warrants under the Securities Purchase Agreement (and of the shares issuable upon exercise or exchange of the Warrants) is registered pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-184703).
The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. In addition, the Securities Purchase Agreement contains a prohibition on additional issuances of equity or equity-linked securities for 90 days, subject to certain exceptions.
Warrant
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company will issue the Warrants to the Investors. Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $2.444 per share. The Warrants will be exercisable at any time beginning on the date of issuance until the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. The exercise price and the number and type of securities purchasable upon exercise of Warrants are subject to adjustment upon certain corporate events, including certain combinations, consolidations, liquidations, mergers, recapitalizations, reclassifications, reorganizations, stock dividends and stock splits, a sale of all or substantially all of our assets and certain other events.
Holders of the Warrants may exercise their Warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock on or before the termination date by delivering an exercise notice, appropriately completed and duly signed, and payment of the exercise price for the number of shares for which the Warrant is being exercised in cash. If, and only if, a registration statement relating to the issuance of the shares underlying the Warrants is not then effective or available or such shares would not be freely tradable, a holder of Warrants would be entitled to exercise the Warrants on a cashless basis, where the holder receives the net value of the Warrant in shares of Common Stock.
Under certain circumstances, beginning forty-five days after issuance, in the event that our Common Stock trades at a price that is 25% or more above the exercise price of the Warrants for a period of 20 consecutive days (with an average daily volume equal to or greater than $300,000), the Company may, subject to limitations in the warrants, require the holder of the Warrants to exercise the Warrants for cash.
Beginning forty-five days after issuance, if our Common Stock is then trading at a price at or lower than the Warrant exercise price per share, a holder may, without the payment of additional consideration, exchange all or any portion of the Warrants based on a formula for a number of shares of our Common Stock equal to the negotiated Black-Scholes value as defined below divided by the closing bid price of our Common Stock as of two trading days prior to such exchange. However, in no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issued in connection with an exchange exceed the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable on a cash exercise of the Warrants if the portion of the Warrant being so exchanged were then exercised for cash thereunder.
The negotiated Black-Scholes value is defined as the value of an option for the number of shares equal to the portion of the Warrant being exchanged at the applicable exchange date as such value is determined calculated using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg utilizing (i) an underlying price per share equal to the closing sale price of the Common Stock as of the date of issuance of the Warrant, (ii) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of the Warrant
as of such exchange date, (iii) a strike price equal to the exercise price in effect at the time of the applicable exchange, (iv) an expected volatility equal to 155% and (v) a deemed remaining term of the Warrant of five (5) years (regardless of the actual remaining term of the Warrant). The negotiated Black-Scholes value would only change based on changes in the risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of the Warrants at the time of an exchange, which would not be expected to materially change the negotiated Black-Scholes value.
Upon the holder’s exercise of a warrant, the Company will issue the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant within three trading days of our receipt of notice of exercise and payment of the aggregate exercise price.
The Warrants do not confer upon holders any voting or other rights as stockholders of the Company. A copy of the opinion of Ropes & Gray LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the securities described above is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto. Copies of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Form of Warrant are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 4.1, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibits.
