Item 8.01 Other Events
Press Release Announcing Commencement of Rights Offering
On March 21, 2014, the Company’s previously announced rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Accordingly, on March 24, 2014, the Company issued a press release to publicly announce the commencement of the Rights Offering.
The Rights Offering will be made through the Company's distribution to its existing shareholders as of March 20, 2014, the previously announced Record Date, of non-transferable subscription rights to purchase their pro rata portion of newly issued shares of the Company's common stock at a subscription price of $1.90 per share. The subscription rights will expire if they are not exercised by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 25, 2014 (the “Expiration Date”). The subscription period may not be extended, and the Company reserves its right, in its sole discretion, to cancel the Rights Offering at any time or for any reason prior to the Expiration Date.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Rights Offering to pursue strategic opportunities that may present themselves from time to time or, if not used to pursue strategic opportunities, for working capital and general corporate purposes, including to fund ongoing research and development and product initiatives. Also, to the extent net proceeds of the Rights Offering are not deployed, some of the funds may be invested in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Surplus Capital Investment Policy.
A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
