Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On June 4, 2024, Genelux Corporation (the “Company”) made available the corporate presentation attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Corporate Presentation”). Information from the Corporate Presentation may also be used by the management of the Company in future meetings regarding the Company. For important information about forward-looking statements in the Corporate Presentation, see the slide titled “Forward-Looking Statements” in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto.

 

The information contained or incorporated in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On June 3, 2024, the Underwriters (as defined below) exercised in part their option to purchase (i) an additional 625,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) accompanying warrants to purchase 625,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”), with an exercise price of $5.25 per share, at a combined offering price of $4.00 per share and accompanying Warrant, pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated as of May 23, 2024 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) by and between the Company and Guggenheim Securities, LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”, and such exercise, the “Overallotment Exercise”).

 

The net proceeds to the Company from the Overallotment Exercise were approximately $2.35 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. All of the Shares and the Warrants were sold by the Company.

 

The securities described above were offered and issued pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-276847) and the related prospectus and prospectus supplement.

 

Each Warrant has an initial exercise price per share of $5.25, subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Warrant. The Warrants may be exercised at any time until exercised in full. A holder (together with its affiliates and other attribution parties) may not exercise any portion of a Warrant to the extent that immediately prior to or after giving effect to such exercise the holder would own more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise, which percentage may be changed at the holder’s election to a lower or higher percentage not in excess of 19.99% (if exceeding such percentage would result in a change of control under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) or any successor rule) upon 61 days’ notice to the Company subject to the terms of the Warrants.

 

The foregoing description of the terms of the Warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Warrant, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 24, 2024, and which is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the opinion of Cooley LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the securities in the Overallotment Exercise is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
