As previously reported, on October 2, 2020, DPW Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (as amended on December 1, 2020, the “Sales Agreement”) with Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC, as sales agent (the “Agent”) to sell shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), through an “at the market offering” (the “ATM Offering”) as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

The offer and sale of the Shares were made pursuant to the Company’s effective “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 and an accompanying base prospectus contained therein (Registration Statement No. 333-222132) filed with the SEC on December 18, 2017, as amended on January 8, 2018, and declared effective by the SEC on January 11, 2018.

 

On December 31, 2020, the Company and the Agent mutually agreed to terminate the Sales Agreement pursuant to the execution of the Termination Agreement dated as of such date. The Company sold an aggregate of 12,582,000 Shares and raised gross proceeds of $39,978,350 through the Sales Agreement.

 

The foregoing description of the terms of the Termination Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Termination Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
