Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

On March 15, 2018, Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. (the “Company”) entered into that certain underwriting agreement with Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc. (“Network 1”), as underwriter (the “Underwriting Agreement”) in connection with a public offering in which the Company is offering a minimum of 715,000 and a maximum of 1,430,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Shares”), at a public offering price of $7.00 per share for gross proceeds to the Company of up to $10,010,000 (the “Offering”).

 

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, Network 1 will sell the Shares on a “best efforts” basis and is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of common stock. Amounts Network 1 collects for subscriptions of the Shares will be promptly deposited in a separate escrowed bank account until the minimum amount of Shares have been sold in the Offering. In the event the minimum amount of Shares is not sold prior to May 31, 2018, all monies in the escrow account will be immediately returned to investors, without interest or deduction, within one business day.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a final prospectus, dated March 14, 2018, which was included as part of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-222596) that became effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on March 14, 2018 (the “Registration Statement”).

 

At the closing of the Offering, Network 1 will receive a selling commission equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds of the Shares sold, a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 2% of the gross proceeds received at the closing of the Offering and an accountable expense reimbursement of up to $75,000. Also, at the closing of the Offering, the Company will issue to Network 1, or its designees, warrants to purchase an amount of shares of common stock of the Company equal to 4% of the Shares sold in the Offering for $8.75 per share and exercisable six months from the day of issuance until the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the Registration Statement.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and Network 1, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. There was no material prior relationship between the Company and Network 1.

 

The preceding description of the Underwriting Agreement is a summary of its material terms, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. 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 the Underwriting Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Underwriting Agreement.

 

This Current Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties, such as statements related to the anticipated closing of the Offering.
