  Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 28, 2020, Nemaura Medical Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a placement agency agreement with Kingswood Capital Markets, a division of Benchmark Investments, Inc. (“Kingswood” or the “Placement Agent”), with respect to the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 1,586,206 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and warrants to purchase up to 793,103 shares of common stock (the “Placement Agency Agreement”). Each share of common stock and accompanying one-half of a warrant is being sold for a combined purchase price of $7.25, for a gross deal size of approximately $11.5 million, not including any future proceeds from the exercise of the warrants and before deducting the placement agent fees and offering expenses. Each whole warrant will be immediately exercisable at a price of $8.00 per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, and will expire five years from the date of issuance. The shares of common stock are being offered together with the warrants, but the securities will be issued separately and will be separately transferable.

 

The securities are being offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-230535) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which was declared effective on April 8, 2019, as supplemented by a final prospectus filed on July 28, 2020.  

 

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the sale of the common stock and warrants will be approximately $10.7 million after deducting the placement agent commission and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, which include, but are not limited to, the commercial launch of a subscription based service for the US under the Wellness category, Lactate monitor development for launch, glucose monitoring product launch in Europe and the development of a second generation of sugarBeat®.

The Placement Agency Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Placement Agent, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Placement Agency Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

Subject to certain exceptions, during the applicable lock-up period, the Company’s executive officers and directors may not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of the foregoing securities without the prior written consent of Kingswood. 

The Company has agreed, subject to certain conditions, limitations and exceptions, to provide Kingswood with a right of first refusal to act as the sole investment banker, sole book-runner, and/or sole placement agent, at the Kingswood sole discretion, for each and every future public and private equity offering during the period of 6 months after the date the Offering is completed.
