Corporate History and Organizational Structure

 

We were organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 26, 2014 under the name PAXmed Inc. In April 2015, we changed our name to PAVmed Inc.

 

On January 29, 2016, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-203569) relating to our IPO of units became effective. Each unit offered in the IPO consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant and the units were sold at an offering price of $5.00 per unit. We consummated the IPO on April 28, 2016 and sold 1,060,000 units generating gross proceeds of $5.3 million and approximately $4.2 million of net proceeds, net of selling agent discounts and commissions and offering expenses. The warrants issued in the IPO are exercisable commencing October 28, 2016 and expire on January 29, 2022 or earlier upon redemption. Each warrant has an exercise price of $5.00. Upon consummation of the IPO, 9,560,295 previously outstanding warrants (including the warrants held by the Selling Securityholders) automatically converted into identical warrants issued in the IPO. Subsequently, in November 2016. 40,000 warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 20,732 shares of common stock.

 

Office Location

 

Our business address is One Grand Central Place, Suite 4600, New York, New York 10165, and our telephone number is (212) 949-4319. Our corporate website is www.pavmed.com. The information contained on or that can be assessed through our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus and you should not consider information on our website to be part of this prospectus or in deciding whether to purchase our securities.

 

Risks Affecting Our Company

 

In evaluating an investment in our securities, you should carefully read this prospectus and especially consider the factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” commencing on page 5.

 

In addition, we may in the future engage in transactions with holders of our outstanding warrants. Warrantholders who sell or exercise their warrants, including on a cashless basis, prior to any such transaction will not be eligible to participate in any such transaction. There can be no assurance, however, that any such transaction will occur at all, or if it does, that it will be more beneficial to a warrantholder than selling its warrants in the market at prevailing prices or exercising its warrants and holding or selling the shares of common stock received upon such exercise.

 

Background of this Prospectus

 

In several private placements prior to our IPO, we issued warrants to our initial stockholders, including the 1,087,031 warrants held by the Selling Securityholders. As indicated above, we then sold 1,060,000 units in our IPO, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock. Upon consummation of the IPO, the previously outstanding warrants automatically converted into identical warrants issued in the IPO. The warrants became exercisable on October 28, 2016. See the section entitled “Description of Securities — Warrants” beginning on page 13 of this prospectus for a full description of the terms of the warrants.

 

Under the terms of the warrant agreement governing our outstanding warrants, we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to have an effective and current registration statement covering the shares underlying the warrants in place once the warrants become exercisable and to use our best efforts to cause the same to continue to be effective until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with their terms. Accordingly, we are registering the issuance of the 1,020,000 shares of common stock underlying the remaining warrants issued in the IPO on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We are also registering on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part the resale of an aggregate of 1,0 62 ,031 shares of common stock underlying the warrants currently held by the Selling Securityholders to the extent such warrants are exercised by the Selling Securityholders prior to their transfer under Rule 144. To the extent the Selling Securityholders transfer such warrants under Rule 144 after the date of this prospectus and prior to their exercise, this prospectus also covers the issuance of an aggregate of 1,0 62 ,031 shares of our common stock to the transferees of such warrants upon their subsequent exercise. The shares underlying the remaining 8, 498 ,264 of the warrants issued in connection in private placements prior to our IPO are not being registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, including the shares underlying 8, 365 ,870 of such warrants that are held by our directors, officers and other affiliates.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves significant risks. You should consider the “Risk Factors” included under Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on April 11, 2016 and, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus. The market or trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks. In addition, please read “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this prospectus, where we describe additional uncertainties associated with our business and the forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Our business, financial position, results of operations or liquidity could be adversely affected by any of those risks. In addition, we may in the future engage in transactions with holders of our outstanding warrants. Warrantholders who sell or exercise their warrants, including on a cashless basis, prior to any such transaction will not be eligible to participate in any such transaction. There can be no assurance, however, that any such transaction will occur at all, or if it does, that it will be more beneficial to a warrantholder than selling its warrants in the market at prevailing prices or exercising its warrants and holding or selling the shares of common stock received upon such exercise. The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or operations. Any adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results could result in a decline in the value of our shares of common stock and other securities and the loss of all or part of your investment.

Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described under the heading “Risk Factors,” as well as the following:

 

·continued compliance with government regulations;

 

·changing legislation or regulatory environments;

 

·requirements or changes affecting the businesses in which we are engaged;

 

·changing interpretations of accounting principles;

 

·general economic conditions; and

 

·other relevant risks detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws and/or if and when management knows or has a reasonable basis on which to conclude that previously disclosed projections are no longer reasonably attainable.

Acquisition of Resale Securities

 

In several private placements prior to our IPO, we issued warrants to our initial stockholders, including the 1,087,031 warrants held by the Selling Securityholders. As indicated above, we then sold 1,060,000 units in our IPO, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock. Upon consummation of the IPO, the previously outstanding warrants automatically converted into identical warrants issued in the IPO. The warrants became exercisable on October 28, 2016. In November 2016, 40,000 warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 20,732 shares of common stock. See the section entitled “Description of Securities — Warrants” beginning on page 13 of this prospectus for a full description of the terms of the warrants.

 

Under the terms of the warrant agreement governing all of the outstanding warrants, we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to have an effective and current registration statement covering the shares underlying the warrants in place once the warrants become exercisable and to use our best efforts to cause the same to continue to be effective until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with their terms. Accordingly, we are registering the issuance of the 1,020,000 shares of common stock underlying the remaining warrants issued in the IPO on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We are also registering on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part the resale of an aggregate of 1,0 62 ,031 shares of common stock underlying the warrants currently held by the Selling Securityholders to the extent such warrants are exercised by the Selling Securityholders prior to their transfer under Rule 144. To the extent the Selling Securityholders transfer such warrants under Rule 144 after the date of this prospectus and prior to their exercise, this prospectus also covers the issuance of an aggregate of 1,0 62 ,031 shares of our common stock to the transferees of such warrants upon their subsequent exercise. The shares underlying the remaining 8, 498 ,264 of the warrants issued in private placements prior to our IPO are not being registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, including the shares underlying 8, 365 ,870 of such warrants that are held by our directors, officers and other affiliates (including 25,000 warrants which were sold by Peter M. Kendall, one of the Selling Securityholders, to Lishan Aklog, MD, our chief executive officer, in January 2017) .

  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
     
  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
     
  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
     
  an exchange distribution or other future transaction exchange-related transaction in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange or exchange-related transaction;
     
  privately negotiated transactions;
     
  short sales;
     
  through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
     
  broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Securityholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;
     
  a combination of any such methods of sale; and
     
  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The Selling Securityholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the securities owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the pledged securities, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of Selling Securityholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Securityholders under this prospectus. The Selling Securityholders also may transfer the securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus; provided, however, that prior to any such transfer the following information (or such other information as may be required by the federal securities laws from time to time) with respect to each such selling beneficial owner must be added to the prospectus by way of a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment, as appropriate: (1) the name of the selling beneficial owner; (2) any material relationship the selling beneficial owner has had within the past three years with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates; (3) the amount of securities of the class owned by such security beneficial owner before the offering; (4) the amount to be offered for the security beneficial owner’s account; and (5) the amount and (if one percent or more) the percentage of the class to be owned by such security beneficial owner after the offering is complete.

In connection with the sale of our securities or interests therein, the Selling Securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Securityholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Securityholders from the sale of the securities offered by them will be the purchase price of the securities less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the Selling Securityholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of securities to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of securities offered by this prospectus. However, to the extent the warrants are exercised for cash, we will receive the cash exercise price paid by the holders.

 

The Selling Securityholders also may resell all or a portion of the securities in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The Selling Securityholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the securities or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the securities may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling Securityholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the securities to be sold, the names of the Selling Securityholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

The maximum amount of compensation to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker-dealer for the sale of any securities registered under this prospectus will not be greater than 8.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of such securities.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the securities may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

We have advised the Selling Securityholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Securityholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Securityholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Securityholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the warrants, the shares of common stock to be issued upon exercise of such warrants will be distributed only to those warrant holders who surrender the certificates representing the warrants and provide payment of the exercise price through their brokers to our warrant agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

General

 

On January 29, 2016, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-203569) relating to our IPO of up to 1,200,000 units became effective. Each unit offered in the IPO consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant and the units were sold at an offering price of $5.00 per unit. We consummated the IPO on April 28, 2016 and sold 1,060,000 units generating gross proceeds of $5.3 million and approximately $4.2 million of net proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

 

On July 27, 2016, the units separated into their component pieces and began trading separately and the units ceased trading. The warrants issued in the IPO became exercisable commencing October 28, 2016 and expire on January 29, 2022 or earlier upon redemption. Each warrant has an exercise price of $5.00. Upon consummation of the IPO, 9,560,295 previously outstanding warrants (including the warrants held by the Selling Securityholders) converted into identical warrants issued in the IPO.

 

We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001. As of the date of this prospectus, 13,330,732 shares of our common stock are outstanding and no shares of our preferred stock are outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

 

There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of the directors.

 

Our stockholders have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to the common stock.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock. No shares of our preferred stock are being issued or registered in this offering. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, redemption, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of shares of our common stock. In addition, shares of preferred stock could be utilized as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of us. Although we do not currently intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future.

 

Warrants

 

We currently have 10,580,295 warrants outstanding, consisting of 1,020,000 warrants sold in our IPO and 9,560,295 warrants (including the warrants held by the Selling Securityholders) issued in several private placements that occurred prior to our IPO (all of which converted into identical warrants issued in the IPO as described above).

 

Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $5.00 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below. Each warrant became exercisable commencing October 28, 2016 and will expire January 29, 2022 at 5:00 p.m., New York City time. However, no warrants will be exercisable for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective when the warrants become exercisable, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis in the same manner as if we called the warrants for redemption and required all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” for this purpose will mean the average reported last sale price of the shares of common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date of exercise. Pursuant to an agreement between us and the founders, 8,083,049 warrants originally issued to the founders are exercisable on a “cashless” basis in their hands.

 

 11 

 

Commencing April 28, 2017, we may redeem the outstanding warrants (other than an aggregate of 8,083,049 warrants held by our management, founders and members thereof which we have contractually agreed would not be redeemable by us while such warrants are in the hands of such holders), at our option, in whole or in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

 

·at any time while the warrants are exercisable,

 

·upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption,

 

·if, and only if, the volume weighted average price of our common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 (subject to adjustment) for any 20 consecutive trading days ending three business days before we send the notice of redemption, provided that the average daily trading volume in the stock is at least 20,000 shares per day, and

 

·if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such warrants.

 

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder’s warrant upon surrender of such warrant.

 

The redemption criteria for our warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of our redemption call, the redemption should not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the warrants.

 

If we call the warrants for redemption as described above, we will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. In this case, the “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the shares of common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. Whether we will exercise our option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of our shares of common stock at the time the warrants are called for redemption, our cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive stock issuances.

 

The warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval, by written consent or vote, of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding warrants in order to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders.

 

 12 

 

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below their respective exercise prices.

 

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

 

Except as described above, no warrants will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares of common stock unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such warrant, a prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the shares of common stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants.

 

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round up to the nearest whole number the number of shares of common stock to be issued to the warrant holder.

 

Purchase Option

 

We issued to the selling agent in our IPO and its designees options to purchase an aggregate of 53,000 units at $5.50 per unit, representing 53,000 shares and 53,000 warrants. The shares and warrants that would be issued upon exercise of these options will be identical to our outstanding shares and warrants.

 

Dividends

 

We have not paid any cash dividends on our shares of common stock to date. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition and will be within the discretion of our Board of Directors. It is the present intention of our Board of Directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our Board of Directors does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

PAVmed’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws provide that all directors and officers shall be entitled to be indemnified by such company to the fullest extent permitted by law. The certificate of incorporation provides that PAVmed may indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law all employees. PAVmed’s by-laws provide that, if authorized by the Board of Directors, it may indemnify any other person whom it has the power to indemnify under section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law concerning indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents is set forth below.

 

“Section 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance.

 

(a)   A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

 

(b)   A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a

 

 II-1 

 

director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

(c)   To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

 

(d)   Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer of the corporation at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.

 

(e)   Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director of the corporation in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents of the corporation or by persons serving at the request of the corporation as directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

 

(f)   The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the certificate of incorporation or a bylaw shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.

 

 II-2 

 

(g)   A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under this section.

 

(h)   For purposes of this section, references to “the corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

 

(i)   For purposes of this section, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this section.

 

(j)   The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

 

(k)   The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a corporation’s obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees).”

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to the court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

Paragraph B of Article Eight of PAVmed’s certificate of incorporation provides:

 

 II-3 

 

“The Corporation, to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of the GCL, as amended from time to time, shall indemnify all persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which such officer or director may be entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized hereby.”

In June 2014 in connection with our organization, we issued (i) 5,658,134 shares of common stock for proceeds of $2,030.00 and warrants to purchase an additional 6,097,127 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of  $0.90 per share, for proceeds of $218.75, for an aggregate purchase price and total consideration of  $2,248.75, to HCFP/Capital Partners III LLC and (ii) 2,424,915 shares of common stock for proceeds of $870.00 and warrants to purchase an additional 2,613,054 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of   $0.90 per share, for proceeds of $93.75, for an aggregate purchase price and total consideration of  $963.75, to Pavilion Venture Partners LLC.

 

In July 2014, we issued an aggregate of 418,089 units, each consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock, for $75,000 in cash, or a purchase price of  $0.18 per unit, to nine investors.

 

In October 2014, HCFP/Capital Partners III LLC and Pavilion Venture Partners LLC agreed to contribute 627,133 warrants back to the Company at no cost.

 

In November 2014, we issued an aggregate of 2,355,233 units, each consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock, for $845,000 in cash, or a purchase price of $0.36 per unit, to 13 investors.

 

During August 2015, we issued 97,554 warrants in exchange for services.

 

During September 2015, we issued an aggregate of 1,393,629 shares of common stock from the exercise of warrants receiving $1.25 million of proceeds.

 

In September 2015, we effectuated a forward stock split of 2.7872582-for-1 by way of a stock dividend of 1.7872582 shares for each outstanding share, resulting in there being 12,250,000 shares of common stock outstanding.

 

All of the securities described above were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as fewer than 35 investors were non-accredited investors. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.

 

In November 2016, 40,000 warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 20,732 shares of common stock.

 

The shares issued upon exercise of the warrants were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, as the warrants were exchanged for shares exclusively, and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-1, Form S-3, Form SF-3 or Form F-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or, as to a registration statement on Form S-3, Form SF-3 or Form F-3, is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to 424(b) of this chapter that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933 in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement,

 

 II-6 

 

regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(5)       That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§ 230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(b)   The undersigned hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriter at the closing specified in the underwriting agreements, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

 

(c)   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

(d)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(e)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
