Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Underwriting Agreement
On May 12, 2022, Actelis Networks, Inc. (the "Company" or "us" or "we") entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Boustead Securities, LLC, the underwriter named on Schedule I thereto, relating to the Company’s firm commitment underwritten initial public offering (the “Offering”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock to the underwriter at a public offering price of $4.00 per share (the "Offering Price"), and granted the Underwriter a 45-day overallotment option to purchase up to 562,500 additional shares of Common Stock, equivalent to 15% of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering (the “Over-Allotment Option”), pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-264321) (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
The Company intends to use the proceeds primarily for research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative purposes, capital investments and working capital.
The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company. It also provides that the Company will indemnify the underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments the underwriter may be required to make because of any of those liabilities. In exchange for the underwriter’s services, the Company agreed to (i) sell the Common Stock to the underwriter at a purchase price of $3.72 per share representing a 7% underwriting discount, (ii) pay a non-accountable expense allowance to the underwriter equal to 0.75% of the gross proceeds received at the closing of the Offering, and (ii) issue the Underwriter (or its designees) a warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Underwriter’s Warrant”) representing 7% of the shares sold in the Offering.
The Offering closed on May 17, 2022, and the Company sold an aggregate of 4,212,500 shares of Common Stock to the underwriter, including 462,500 shares pursuant to the partial exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, for total gross proceeds of $16,850,000. After deducting the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses payable by the Company, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $15,400,000.
The foregoing summary of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Underwriter’s Warrants
On May 17, 2022, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company issued the Underwriter’s Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 294,875 shares of Common Stock. The Underwriter’s Warrant may be exercised beginning on May 17, 2022 until May 12, 2027. The initial exercise price of Underwriter’s Warrant is $5.00 per share, which represents 125% of the Offering Price.
