Entry
into a Material Agreement |
On
January 24, 2023, Verb Technology Company, Inc. (the “Company”)
entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting
Agreement”) with Aegis Capital Corp. (“Aegis”) as underwriter ( the
“Underwriter”), relating to the offering, issuance and sale of up
to 36,051,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par
value per share, at a public offering price of $0.20 per
share.
The
offering closed on January 26, 2023. The Company’s common stock is
listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The net proceeds to the Company
for the offering was approximately $6.6 million, after deducting
the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering
expenses.
The
offering of the securities described above was made pursuant to the
Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3
(Registration No. 333-264038), filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2022, which was
declared effective on April 14, 2022, and the base prospectus
included therein, as supplemented by the preliminary prospectus
filed with the SEC on January 24, 2023.
Aegis
acted as sole underwriter for the offering. The underwriting
commission was 6% of the gross proceeds of the offering. We
reimbursed Aegis for certain of its expenses, in an amount of up to
$75,000, including legal fees.
The
Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to
closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the
Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination
provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained
in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such
agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of
the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations
agreed upon by the contracting parties.
Subject
to certain exceptions, the Company and its executive officers and
directors have agreed not to sell or transfer any common stock or
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for
common stock, for 60 days after the offering, without first
obtaining the written consent of Aegis.
A
copy of the form of Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Underwriting
Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such
exhibit. A copy of the opinion of Sichenzia Ross Ference LLP
relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the common
stock in the offering are attached as Exhibit 5.1.
On
January 24, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the
offering. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit
99.1.
