As previously reported on a Report on Form 6-K filed by Bit Origin Ltd (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 7, 2022, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 9,803,922 ordinary shares (the “Shares”), par value US$0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”), on a firm commitment basis, at an offering price of US$0.51 per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $5 million (the “Offering”) pursuant to the underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and between the Company and Univest Securities, LLC (the “Underwriter”), dated June 3, 2022. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,470,588 Ordinary Shares (the “Option Shares”), representing up to 15% of the number of the Shares sold in the Offering, solely to cover over-allotments (the “Over-allotment Option”). On June 27, 2022, the Underwriter fully exercised the Over-allotment Option, and on June 29, 2022, the Company closed the offering of the Option Shares, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5.75 million less applicable underwriter discounts and other offering fees and expenses.

 

In connection with such closing and pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company issued to the Underwriter warrants to purchase up to 73,530 Ordinary Shares, representing 5% of the Option Shares issued and sold, at an initial exercise price of $0.51 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

 

On June 29, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the issuance of the Option Shares and the closing of such offering. A copy of such press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 6-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
