Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth in Item 8.01 below, including the description of the Merger Shares (as defined below), are incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The offer and sale of the Merger Shares were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), since the foregoing offer, sales and issuances did not involve a public offering, the recipients have confirmed that they are “accredited investors”, and the recipients acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. The securities are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities will contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On May 20, 2024 (the “Effective Time of the Merger”), Nexcella, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Nexcella”), which was formerly a majority-owned subsidiary of Immix Biopharma, Inc. (“Company”), was merged (the “Merger”) with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation. The Merger was effected pursuant to Section 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) when the Company filed a Certificate of Ownership and Merger (“Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Immediately prior to the Merger, the Company owned greater than 95% of outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis of Nexcella, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Nexcella Shares”), and 100% of the outstanding shares of each other class of capital stock of Nexcella. Under the DGCL, the only approval required was that of the Company’s Board of Directors for the Merger to become effective. As a result of the Merger, Nexcella ceased to exist and all assets, operations and other property and rights of Nexcella have been succeeded to by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Merger, as a result of the Merger, each of the outstanding Nexcella Shares (other than Nexcella Shares held by the Company) were converted, into common stock of the Company (“Company Merger Shares”). In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 989,876 shares of its common stock to the former stockholders of Nexcella (other than shares held by the Company) (including Company common stock issued to third-party cash investors in Nexcella) (the “Merger Shares”). In addition, the Company issued to the former participants in the Nexcella 2022 Equity Incentive Plan 275,759 restricted stock awards to receive common stock in the Company and options to purchase up to 595,676 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $2.47 per share (the closing price on May 17, 2024), under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Notwithstanding the Merger, Nexcella Shares held by former stockholders of Nexcella who (a) do not request the delivery of a certificate of their Merger Consideration Shares, (b) perfect their rights to appraisal of such Nexcella Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and (c) do not thereafter withdraw their potential request for appraisal of such Nexcella Shares or otherwise lose or waive their appraisal rights, in each case in accordance with the DGCL, shall represent the right to receive from the Company such payment as the holders thereof may be entitled to receive as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery in an appraisal proceeding. A copy of the Certificate of Merger is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1.
