Item 1.01.Entry into a Material Agreement

 

On January 30, 2020, Intec Pharma Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Underwriter”), relating to the offering, issuance and sale of (i) 15,280,000 ordinary shares and accompanying warrants to purchase 15,280,000 ordinary shares, and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 970,000 ordinary shares and accompanying warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 970,000 ordinary shares. Each ordinary share and accompanying warrant is being sold together at a combined price to the public of $0.40, and each pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant is being sold together at a combined price to the public of $0.3999. The offering is expected to close on or about February 4, 2020, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Each pre-funded warrant will have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. Each warrant will be immediately exercisable and will have an exercise price of $0.40 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance. The ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. There is no established public trading market for the pre-funded warrants and the warrants and we do not expect a market to develop The warrants are subject to certain limitations on beneficial ownership.

 

The net proceeds to the Company for the offering is expected to result in approximately $5.7 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.

 

The Company also granted the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to additional 2,437,500 ordinary shares at a purchase price of $0.3999 per share and/or up to 2,437,500 additional warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,437,500 ordinary shares at a purchase price of $0.0001 per warrant less the underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.027993 per share and $0.000007 per warrant.

The Company has filed a final prospectus supplement, dated January 30, 2020, relating to the issuance and sale of the ordinary shares, warrants and pre-funded warrants with the SEC.

 

H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as sole book-running manager for the offering. The underwriting discounts and commissions will be 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the offering, or $0.028 per ordinary share and accompanying warrant to purchase ordinary shares or $0.028 per pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant. We have also agreed to pay H.C. Wainwright & Co. an expense allowance consisting of (a) a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the offering, (b) $50,000 for non-accountable expenses, (c) up to $100,000 for fees and expenses of legal counsel and other out-of-pocket expenses and (d) $10,000 clearing fees.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriter, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions.
