Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 29, 2024, Richtech Robotics Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Investors” and, together with the retail purchasers who purchased securities in the Offering pursuant to the Company’s prospectus, dated August 29, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 30, 2024 (the “Prospectus”), the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Prospectus, the Company agreed to sell, in a public offering (the “Offering”), (i) an aggregate of 13,242,963 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 2,312,594 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), and (iii) warrants to purchase up to 15,555,557 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrants”), at a purchase price per Share and accompanying Common Warrant of $1.35. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately on the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.00001 per share and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The Common Warrants are exercisable immediately on the date of issuance at an exercise price of $1.35 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance. The Offering closed on September 3, 2024.
Rodman & Renshaw LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) for the Company, on a “reasonable best efforts” basis, in connection with the Offering. Pursuant to an engagement letter dated June 4, 2024, the Placement Agent received a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering. The Company also paid the Placement Agent certain out-of-pocket expenses, including its legal counsel, in the amount of $80,000 and an additional $15,950 for its clearing expenses. The Placement Agent also received warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 7.0% of the aggregate number of Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the Offering. The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Common Warrants, except that the Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price of 125% of the combined offering price per Share and accompanying Common Warrant and have an expiration date of five years from the commencement of sales in the Offering.
The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, after deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and expenses but before paying the Company’s estimated offering expenses, were approximately $19.4 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital, general corporate purposes, including the further development of its product candidates, and the procurement of inventory, specifically for robotic hardware.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, except for certain exemptions, the Company is prohibited from issuing Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents for ninety days after the closing and from engaging in variable rate transactions (subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement) for a period of one year from the closing of the Offering.
The Shares, Pre-Funded Warrants, Common Warrants, Placement Agent Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, Common Warrants, Placement Agent Warrants were offered and sold by the Company pursuant to the Prospectus, which formed a part of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-281789), filed with the SEC on August 27, 2024 and subsequently declared effective on August 29, 2024, and an additional registration statement on Form S-1MEF filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which became automatically effective on August 29, 2024.
The forms of the Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrant, the Common Warrant, and the Placement Agent Warrant are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The foregoing summaries of the terms of these documents are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, such documents, which are incorporated herein by reference.
As of the date of this report, the Investors have exercised their Pre-Funded Warrants in full, at an exercise price of $0.00001 per share, for an aggregate of 2,312,594 shares of Common Stock. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $23.13 in connection with the exercises of the Pre-Funded Warrants.
