Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Warrant Inducement Transaction

 

On January 30, 2024, Palisade Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into warrant inducement agreements (the “Agreements”) with certain accredited and institutional holders (collectively, the “Holders”) of the Company’s outstanding common stock purchase warrants issued on May 10, 2022 (the “May 2022 Warrants”), August 16, 2022 (the “August 2022 Warrants”), January 4, 2023 (the “January 2023 Warrants”), and April 5, 2023 (the “April 2023 Warrants”) (collectively, the “Existing Warrants”). Pursuant to the Agreements, the exercise price of each Existing Warrant that is being exercised will be reduced to $0.7313 per share. Each Holder that exercises its Existing Warrants pursuant to the Agreement, will receive one (1) replacement warrant (the “Replacement Warrants”) for each Existing Warrant exercised.

 

The Replacement Warrants will be exercisable immediately and expire five (5) years from the date of issuance. The Replacement Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and certain fundamental transactions, as more fully described in the Replacement Warrants. The Replacement Warrants contain standard anti-dilution provisions but do not contain any price protection provisions with respect to future securities offerings of the Company.

 

The Holders are collectively exercising an aggregate of 3,422,286 Existing Warrants consisting of: (i) 72,932 May 2022 Warrants, (ii) 64,000 August 2022 Warrants, (iii) 1,012,631 January 2023 Warrants, and (iii) 2,272,723 April 2023 Warrants. The Holders are exercising all of their Existing Warrants. As a result of the exercises, the Company will issue an aggregate of 3,422,286 shares of its Common Stock. The shares underlying the Existing Warrants have all been registered on Form S-1 registration statements (Registration Numbers 333-265769 / 333-266808, 333-265570, 333-269234 and 333-271393). The closing is expected to take place on or about February 1, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company anticipates receiving gross proceeds of approximately $2,502,717, excluding closing costs and placement agent fees as further described below.

 

In the event that the exercise of Existing Warrants would cause the Holder to exceed the beneficial ownership limitation provisions contained in the Existing Warrants, the Company shall only issue such number of shares that would not cause the Holder to exceed the maximum amount permitted thereunder, with the balance to be held in abeyance until notice from the Holder that the balance (or portion thereof) may be issued in compliance with such limitations.

 

The Company agreed to file a resale registration statement registering the shares underlying the Replacement Warrants (“Resale Registration Statement”) within fifteen (15) days after the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be effective within sixty (60) days of the initial filing date of the Resale Registration Statement.

 

Subject to the terms of the Agreement, the Company will be required to pay certain liquidated damages if the shares underlying the Replacement Warrants are not registered for resale or in the event that the Company fails to remove the restrictive legend on the shares underlying the Replacement Warrants on a timely basis as more fully described in the Agreement.

 

In the event that the shares underlying the Replacement Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement at the time of exercise, the Replacement Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis at any time after six (6) months from the issuance date.

 

The Company further agrees that until thirty (30) trading days after January 30, 2024, it will not enter into any other warrant inducement agreement with any other warrant holder that contains terms that are more favorable than those contained in the Agreement. Additionally, until thirty (30) days after the date of the Agreements, neither the Company nor any subsidiary shall issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents or file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement (other than the registration statement registering the shares underlying the Replacement Warrants).

 

In connection with the transactions contemplated in the Agreement, the Company agreed to pay its placement agent, Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. (the “Placement Agent”) the following compensation: (i) a cash fee equal to 7.75% of the gross proceeds received by the Company in the transactions contemplated by the Agreements, (ii) a common stock purchase warrant to purchase such number of shares of common stock equal to 6% of the aggregate number shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Existing Warrants by the Holders with an exercise price of $0.7313 per share, and a term of five (5) years from issuance (the “Placement Agent Warrant”), and (iii) up to $40,000 of out-of-pocket expenses.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Agreements, Replacement Warrants, and the Placement Agent Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreements, Replacement Warrants, and the Placement Agent Warrant, copies of which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.01, 4.01, and 4.02, respectively.
