On February 7, 2012, NeuroMetrix, Inc. (“NeuroMetrix” or “we”) priced a public offering (the “Offering”) of up to 10,500,000 Units, with each Unit consisting of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and a warrant to purchase one half of a share of common stock. The Units were offered to the public at a price of $1.00 per Unit and the warrants, which are exercisable starting 180 days from the closing and will remain exercisable thereafter until five years from such closing date, have an exercise price of $1.15 per share. If all of the Units are sold, we anticipate that we will receive Offering proceeds, net of estimated discounts, commissions and expenses, of approximately $9,360,000. The Company will use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including as more fully described in the Offering prospectus.
The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-178165) (the “Registration Statement”). Dawson James Securities, Inc. acted as the Company’s placement agent for the Offering. Dawson James Securities, Inc. is also entitled to receive warrants to purchase up to 525,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share. The placement agent warrants will be issued on substantially the same terms as the warrants issued in the public offering except that the placement agent warrants are not exercisable until one year from the date of issuance and will remain exercisable until five years from the effective date of the Registration Statement.
A copy of the press release is being filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
