Item. 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 29, 2023, 60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Underwriting Agreement with WallachBeth Capital LLC, as representative of the underwriters listed on Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriting Agreement”), relating to the Company’s public offering (the “Offering”) of 5,260,901 units (the “Units”) at an offering price of $0.385 per Unit and 999,076 pre-funded units (the “Pre-Funded Units”) at an offering price of $0.375 per Pre-Funded Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock and one warrant exercisable for one share of common stock (the “Warrant”). Each Warrant has an exercise price of $0.4235 per share, is exercisable immediately upon issuance and expires five years from the date of issuance. Each Pre-Funded Unit consists of one pre-funded warrant exercisable for one share of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrant”) and one warrant identical to the Warrants included in the Units. The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Unit is equal to the price per Unit sold to the public in the offering, minus $0.01, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.01 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full.
The underwriters were granted an option, exercisable within 45 days after the closing of the offering, to purchase up to 789,136 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.385 per share and/or 938,997 Warrants at a price of $0.01 per Warrant and/or 149,862 Pre-Funded Warrants at a price of $0.375 per Pre-Funded Warrant, or any combination of additional shares of common stock, Warrants and/or Pre-Funded Warrants, representing, in the aggregate, up to 15% of the number of Units sold in the offering, 15% of the Warrants underlying the Units and Pre-Funded Units sold in the offering and 15% of the Pre-Funded Warrants underlying the Pre-Funded Units sold in the offering, in all cases less the underwriting discount to cover over-allotments, if any. On January 31, 2024, WallachBeth Capital LLC partially exercised its over-allotment option with respect to 818,177 Warrants.
The Units and Pre-Funded Units were offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1(File No. 333-276641), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on January 22, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”)
and the final prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on January 29, 2024. The closing of the Offering for the securities took place on January 31, 2024.
The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $1.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and the payment of other offering expenses associated with the Offering that were payable by the Company. The Company paid the Underwriter an underwriting discount equal to 8.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and a non-accountable expense fee equal to 1.5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering.
The Company also issued to WallachBeth Capital LLC warrants (the “Representative Warrants”) to purchase 375,599 shares of the Company’s common stock, which is equal to six percent (6%) of the common stock sold that were part of the Units and the pre-funded warrants sold that were part of the Pre-Funded Units in the Offering, at an exercise price of $0.4235 per share, which is equal to 110% of the offering price per Unit. The Representative Warrants may be exercised beginning on January 31, 2024 until January 31, 2029.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for increasing capitalization and financial flexibility, and relaunching its malaria prevention project in the U.S. later in 2024.
The Company’s officers and directors have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, issue, sell, contract to sell, encumber, grant any option for the sale of or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of common stock until July 29, 2024 without the prior written consent of WallachBeth Capital LLC.
