5.	SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On February 28, 2014, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended, relating to the initial public offering of the Company’s units was declared effective by the SEC. The Registration Statement covered the offer and sale by the Company of 4,884,650 units, each consisting of one ordinary share and one warrant (“Unit”), which were sold to the public on March 26, 2014 at a price of $6.00 per Unit. The ordinary shares and warrants comprising the Units began separate trading on May 9, 2014. The ordinary shares and warrants are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “OXBR” and “OXBRW,” respectively. One warrant may be exercised to acquire one ordinary share at an exercise price equal to $7.50 per share on or before March 26, 2019. At any time after September 26, 2014 and before the expiration of the warrants, the Company at its option may cancel the warrants in whole or in part, provided that the closing price per ordinary share has exceeded $9.38 for at least ten trading days within any period of twenty consecutive trading days, including the last trading day of the period.

The initial public offering resulted in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $29.3 million (of which approximately $5 million related to the fair value proceeds on the warrants issued) and net proceeds of approximately $26.9 million after deducting underwriting commissions and offering expenses.

In June 2013, the Company completed the sale of 1,115,350 units, each consisting of one of the Company’s ordinary shares and three warrants, in its initial private placement offering. One warrant may be exercised to acquire one ordinary share at an exercise price equal to $7.50 per share on or before May 31, 2018. The initial private placement offering resulted in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $6.7 million, of which $3,479,892 related to the fair value proceeds on the warrants issued.

The fair value of the warrants issued in the initial public offering and initial private placement offering of $1.04 per warrant was determined by the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 48%, an expected life of 5 years, expected dividend yield of 8% and a risk-free interest rate of 1.69%. There were 8,230,700 warrants outstanding at June 30, 2014. No warrants were exercised during the three-month or six-month periods ended June 30, 2014.

On January 19, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors declared dividends of $0.12 per share for the third quarter and the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2013. Such dividends were resolved to be payable to shareholders of record as of December 31, 2013. On January 19, 2014, the Subsidiary’s Board of Directors declared dividends of $267,684, and during the six month period ended June 30, 2014, the Subsidiary obtained approval from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (“CIMA”) and paid dividends amounting to $267,684.

As of June 30, 2014, none of the Company’s retained earnings were restricted from payment of dividends to the Company’s shareholders. However, since most of the Company’s capital and retained earnings may be invested in the Subsidiary, a dividend from the Subsidiary would likely be required in order to fund a dividend to the Company’s shareholders and would require notification to CIMA.

Under Cayman Islands law, the use of additional paid-in capital is restricted, and the Company will not be allowed to pay dividends out of additional paid-in capital if such payments result in breaches of the prescribed and minimum capital requirement. See also Note 6.
