Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On September 28, 2012, Aspen Group, Inc. (“Aspen”) raised $2,757,000 from the sale of units consisting of shares of common stock and five-year warrants exercisable at $0.50 per share in a private placement offering to 14 accredited investors. The units sold contained a total of 7,877,144 shares of common stock and 3,938,572 warrants. In connection with the offering, Aspen agreed to register the shares of common stock and the shares of common stock underlying the warrants. Of the investors, four are directors of Aspen whom invested a total of $212,000 in the offering.
In connection with these sales, Aspen paid Laidlaw & Company (UK) Ltd. a placement agent fee of $218,600. The net proceeds to Aspen were $2,494,900.
As a result of this private placement, $1,706,000 of convertible notes sold earlier this year automatically converted into 5,130,795 shares of common stock. Aspen had agreed to register the shares of common stock and 1,282,674 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants issued to the note holders.
All of the shares and warrants sold were issued and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder and have not been registered. These securities may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from the registration requirements under the Act. The investors are accredited investors and there was no general solicitation.
