Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On August 28, 2024, Ondas Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering by the Company directly to the Investor (the “Offering”) an aggregate of 5,333,334 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) together with Series A warrants (“Series A Warrants”) to purchase up to 5,333,334 shares of Common Stock and Series B warrants (“Series B Warrants,” and together with the Series A Warrants, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 5,333,334 shares of Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock and accompanying Series A Warrant and Series B Warrant were sold together at a combined offering price of $0.75. The Series A Warrants have an exercise price of $0.8073 per share, are exercisable at any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the issuance date and will expire two years and six months from the issuance date. The Series B Warrants have an exercise price of $0.8073 per share, are exercisable at any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the issuance date and will expire five years and six months from the issuance date. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $4.0 million before deducting the placement agent’s fees and related offering expenses.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and agreements of the Company and the Investor and customary indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to certain restrictions on the issuance and sale of its Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) during the 90-day period following the closing of the Offering.
The Shares and Warrants were offered by the Company pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-276852), which was initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 2, 2024 and was declared effective by the Commission on February 15, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”).
On August 28, 2024, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Maxim Group LLC (the “Placement Agent”) pursuant to which the Company engaged the Placement Agent as the exclusive placement agent in connection with the Offering. The Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Shares and Warrants to the Investor. The Company also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees of legal counsel not to exceed $100,000. The Placement Agency Agreement also contains representations, warranties, indemnification and other provisions customary for transactions of this nature.
The Offering closed on August 30, 2024.
