NOTE 10 - Stockholders’ Deficit

 

Private Placement and Corresponding Issuance of Common Stock and Warrants

 

From July 9, 2018 through September 28, 2018, the Company entered into subscription agreements (each, a “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “2018 Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers units (each, a “Unit”), each consisting of (i) 1 share (each, a “Share”) of the Company’s common stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase 1 share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.00 per share (the “2018 Warrants”). The initial closing of the 2018 Private Placement was consummated on July 9, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has issued and sold an aggregate of 445,200 Units to the Purchasers, for total gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $1,113,000 before deducting offering expenses.

 

In connection with the 2018 Private Placement, the Company has agreed to issue and sell to accredited investors up to a maximum of 4,000,000 Units (the “Maximum Offering”) at a price of $2.50 per Unit for total gross proceeds to the Company of up to $10,000,000. If the 2018 Private Placement is over-subscribed, the Company may, in its discretion sell up to an additional 600,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment”) to cover such over subscriptions. If the Company issues the Maximum Offering amount, 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock (4,600,000 shares of Common Stock if the Over-Allotment is exercised) would be issuable upon exercise of the 2018 Warrants. The Company may conduct any number of additional closings so long as the final closing occurs on or before January 2, 2019. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to use the net proceeds from the 2018 Private Placement to pay the outstanding principal and accrued interest on its 2017 Convertible Notes if such notes do not convert prior to maturity, to pay the principal on its unsecured term loans, for research and development, clinical studies, legal fees and sales and marketing expenses, as well as working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company has granted the Purchasers indemnification rights with respect to its representations, warranties and agreements under the Purchase Agreement.

 

The 2018 Warrants are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance and will expire on July 9, 2023, five years from the date of the first closing. The 2018 Warrants were accounted for as free standing equity instruments and classified as additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets based on their relative fair value to the underlying common shares issued. The fair value of the 2018 Warrants issued was $318,759 and was based on the Black-Scholes pricing model. Input assumptions used were as follows: a risk-free interest rate of 2.82 percent; expected volatility of 49.8 percent; expected life of 4.91 years; and expected dividend yield of 0 percent. The underlying stock price used in the analysis was on a non-marketable basis and was according to the market approach, considering both the traded price and forward multiples from guideline public companies, using allocation and marketability-discount methodologies.  

 

In connection with the 2018 Private Placement, the Company recorded issuance costs in the amount of $173,067 as of September 30, 2018. The issuance costs included commissions to the brokers equal to 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Units that qualify for the commission and amounted to $83,800. In addition to the brokers’ commission, the issuance costs included the estimated value of the 5-year warrants to be issued to the brokers to purchase an amount of Common Stock equal to 10% of the total amount of qualifying Shares sold in the 2018 Private Placement at an exercise price of $3.45 per share upon the close of the 2018 Private Placement. A liability in the amount of $26,878 was recorded as of September 30, 2018 related to the broker warrants. Lastly, third party legal costs in the amount $62,389 comprised the balance of the issuance costs incurred as of September 30, 2018.

 

In connection with the 2018 Private Placement, the Company entered into registration rights agreements with each of the Purchasers pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of common stock sold in the 2018 Private Placement and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2018 Warrants. The Company has agreed to file such registration statement within 75 days of the final closing of the 2018 Private Placement. Each registration rights agreement includes customary indemnification rights in connection with the registration statement.

The July 2017 Acquisition

 

Pursuant to the Acquisition of NeuroOne on July 20, 2017, the Company acquired 100% of NeuroOne shares in exchange for the issuance of Company shares and NeuroOne became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Also, at the closing, Mr. Samad (the majority owner of the Company prior to the Acquisition) tendered for cancellation 3,500,000 Company shares held by him as part of the conditions to closing resulting in a net exchange of 1,573,000 shares of common stock (see further details in Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Operations).

 

At the time of Acquisition, the Company had authorized 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001.

 

Predecessor NeuroOne, Inc. Activity

 

On October 20, 2016, prior to the Merger with the LLC, NeuroOne issued 5,131,514 shares of common stock (as adjusted for the exchange ratio in connection with the Acquisition) as founders’ shares to seven individuals. Three of those investors were officers of NeuroOne. NeuroOne recorded $9,050 of share subscription receivable for these stock issuances in 2016, which remained outstanding as of December 31, 2016. The shares were subscribed at value of $0.03 per share based on a valuation prepared by NeuroOne utilizing a weighted average market value of invested capital methodology. In June 2017, the purchase price owed by the seven individuals for the founders’ shares of NeuroOne under their respective subscription agreements totaling $9,050 was forgiven by NeuroOne prior to the Acquisition.
