Third Placement of Senior Preferred Stock
As previously disclosed, Venus Concept Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement,
dated May 15, 2023, as amended on July 6, 2023 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), with EW Healthcare Partners, L.P. and EW Healthcare Partners-A, L.P. (collectively, the “Investors”).
Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company may issue and sell to the Investors up to $9,000,000 in shares of newly-created senior convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Senior
Preferred Stock”), in multiple tranches from time to time until December 31, 2025, subject to a minimum aggregate purchase amount of $500,000 in each tranche (the “Private Placement”). The initial
sale in the Private Placement occurred on May 15, 2023, under which the Company sold to the Investors an aggregate of 280,899 shares of Senior Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000. The second sale in the Private Placement
occurred on July 12, 2023, under which the Company sold to the Investors an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Senior Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000.
On September 8, 2023, the Company and the Investors consummated the third sale in the Private Placement, under which the Company sold the
Investors an aggregate of 292,398 shares of Senior Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000 (the “Third Placement”). The Third Placement was consummated in reliance on the private
placement exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Registration D, promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as similar exemptions under applicable
state laws. The Company expects to use the proceeds of the Third Placement, after the payment of transaction expenses, for general working capital purposes.
