Convertible Bridge Loan Transaction
On February 27, 2019, we entered into a convertible bridge loan agreement (“Loan Agreement”), and issued notes and warrants relating thereto, to obtain an aggregate loan of $1,350,500 (the “Loan Amount”) from several private lenders, including DPH Investments Ltd., a holder of approximately 11.5% of the Registrant (“Lenders”). The Loan Amount is expected to be used for our working capital needs and to finance our activities through the consummation of a proposed public offering and our planned uplisting to the NASDAQ Capital Market .
The Loan Amount, which had an original issue discount of ten percent (10%), bears interest at a flat rate of ten percent (10%), and matures on August 27, 2019. The loan is convertible after the maturity date into ordinary shares of the Company at a conversion price equal to 70% of the average closing bid price of our ordinary shares in the five days prior to the conversion. In the event we default under the Loan Agreement, the conversion price will be reduced to 60% of the average closing bid price of our ordinary shares in the 15 days prior to the conversion.
As part of the Loan Agreement, we are issuing to each Lender a convertible promissory note (the “Note”) and an ordinary share purchase warrant for the purchase of ordinary shares (the “Warrant”).
The Warrant provides each Lender with 25% warrant coverage, with the warrant exercise price to be equal to the offering price in our proposed public offering, or, in the event the Loan Amount is converted into ordinary shares, the warrant exercise price will be equal to the applicable closing bid price of our shares at the time of the conversion of the Loan Amount. The term of the Warrant is three years from the date of the determination of the exercise price. The Warrant may be exercised by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrant shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrants being exercised.
The Loan Agreement and the Note contain events of default, including, among other things, failure to repay the Loan Amount by the maturity date, and bankruptcy and insolvency events, that could result in the acceleration of the Lenders’ right to convert the Loan Amount into ordinary shares.
A copy of the Loan Agreement, the form of the Note, and the form of the Warrant are attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, Exhibit 4.2, and Exhibit 4.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, the Note, and the Warrant are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement, the Note, and the Warrant.
We issued the Notes and the Warrants under the exemptions from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. We expect that any issuance of our ordinary shares pursuant to the terms of the Notes or the Warrants will be exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and regulations promulgated thereunder. None of these transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering, and the Lenders had adequate access, through their relationships with us, to information about us.
Our ordinary shares to be issued in the event of conversion of the Loan Amount and upon exercise of the Warrant will not be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
JV Agreement with Amarantus
On November 24, 2018, we entered into a binding agreement with Amarantus Bioscience Holdings, Inc. (“Amarantus”), a biotechnology holding company, for the establishment of a joint venture to develop LymPro Test®, an immune-based neurodiagnostic blood test originally developed at the University of Leipzig, as a diagnostic blood test for detection of Alzheimer’s disease (the “Joint Venture Transaction”). The closing of the Joint Venture Transaction remained subject to our raising $1,000,000 in equity or debt financing.
On February 27, 2019, following execution of the Loan Agreement described above, we signed a definitive joint venture agreement and closed the Joint Venture Transaction. Pursuant to the joint venture agreement, we issued to Amarantus 19.99% of our outstanding ordinary shares, in exchange for 19.99% of Breakthrough Diagnostics, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amarantus, and Amarantus assigned to Breakthrough Diagnostics all of Amarantus’s rights to the LymPro Test and certain other diagnostic assets. In addition, Amarantus granted us an exclusive option to acquire the remaining 80.01% of Breakthrough Diagnostics in exchange for an additional 30.01% of our outstanding shares.
A copy of the joint venture agreement entered into with Amarantus is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.4 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Joint Venture agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the joint venture agreement.
