Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
Purchase and Registration Rights Agreements
On August 2, 2021, Amesite Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), under which, subject to specified terms and conditions, the Company may sell to Lincoln Park up to $16.5 million of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement.
Additionally, on August 2, 2021, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), covering the resale of shares of common stock issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an introducing broker agreement with Laidlaw & Company (UK) Ltd. (“Laidlaw”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay a cash fee to Laidlaw (the “Introductory Fee”) equal to (i) 8% of the amount of the Initial Purchase (defined below), (ii) 8% of the amount of Tranche Purchase (defined below), if any, and (iii) 4% of up to the next $13,500,000 (or up to $14,500,000 if the Tranche Purchase is not exercised).
Upon entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold 759,109 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park as an initial purchase for a total purchase price of $1,500,000 (the “Initial Purchase”). The Company received net proceeds from the Initial Purchase of $1,380,000 after the payment of the Introductory Fee. The Company cannot sell any further shares to Lincoln Park until the date that a registration statement covering the resale of shares of common stock that have been and may in the future be issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, which the Company agreed to file with the SEC pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, is declared effective by the SEC and a final prospectus in connection therewith is filed and all of the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied (such date, the “Commencement Date”).
In addition, at any time following the twentieth business day after the Commencement Date, the Company has the option to direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to an additional $1,000,000 of shares of common stock, subject to conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement (the “Tranche Purchase”).
Beginning on the Commencement Date and for a period of 24 months thereafter, under the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, from time to time, at the Company’s discretion, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase, up to an additional $15.0 million of shares of common stock, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Specifically, from time to time from and after the Commencement Date, the Company may, at its discretion, direct Lincoln Park to purchase on any single business day on which the closing price of its common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market is equal to or greater than $0.50 up to 50,000 shares of common stock (a “Regular Purchase”); provided that the Company may direct Lincoln Park to purchase in a Regular Purchase (a) up to 75,000 shares of common stock, if the closing sale price of its common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market is at least $3.00 per share, (b) up to 100,000 shares of common stock, if the closing sale price of its common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market is at least $4.00 per share, and (c) up to 150,000 shares of common stock, if the closing sale price of its common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market is at least $5.00 per share,. In no case, however, will Lincoln Park’s commitment with respect to any single Regular Purchase exceed $1,000,000. The foregoing share amounts and per share prices will be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring after the date of the Purchase Agreement with respect to our common stock. The purchase price per share for each such Regular Purchase will be based on prevailing market prices of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding the time of sale, as determined under the Purchase Agreement.

In addition to Regular Purchases, the Company may also direct Lincoln Park to purchase other amounts as accelerated purchases or as additional accelerated purchases on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Lincoln Park has no right to require the Company to sell any common stock to Lincoln Park, but Lincoln Park is obligated to make purchases as the Company directs, subject to conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
The Purchase Agreement also prohibits the Company from directing Lincoln Park to purchase any shares of common stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock then beneficially owned by Lincoln Park and its affiliates, would result in Lincoln Park and its affiliates having beneficial ownership, at any single point in time, of more than 9.99% of the then total outstanding shares of common stock.
Under applicable rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company may not issue or sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement more than 19.99% of the shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement (or 4,210,684 shares, based on 21,063,954 shares outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement), unless (i) stockholder approval is obtained or (ii) the issuances and sales of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are not deemed to be “below market” in accordance with the applicable rules of Nasdaq.
The Company may elect to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, without any cost or penalty. The Purchase Agreement does not include any of the following: limitations on the Company’s use of amounts it receive as the purchase price for shares of common stock sold to Lincoln Park; financial or business covenants; restrictions on future financings (other than restrictions on its ability to enter into a “Variable Rate Transaction” as defined in the Purchase Agreement); rights of first refusal; participation rights or penalties.
The Company’s net proceeds under the Purchase Agreement will depend on the frequency of sales and the number of shares sold to Lincoln Park and the prices at which the Company sells shares to Lincoln Park. The Company expects that any net proceeds it receives from such sales to Lincoln Park will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital. As consideration for Lincoln Park’s commitment to purchase up to $16.5 million of shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 152,715 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any shares of common stock, nor shall there be any sale of shares of common stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities
The information contained above in Item 1.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. Based in part upon the representations of Lincoln Park in the Purchase Agreement, the offering and sale of the issuance of the securities to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement is exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D thereunder. Lincoln Park represented that it is an accredited investor, as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and that it is acquiring the shares for its own account and not with a view to any resale, distribution or other disposition of such securities in violation of the U.S. federal securities laws or applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws.
