The additional closing was part of a larger private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”) under which the Company is issuing units each consisting of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, at a price of C$0.045 per unit, pursuant to the grant of a discretionary waiver by the TSXV of its C$0.05 minimum pricing requirement.  As previously disclosed, Mr. Farrell, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Erickson, a member of the Company’s board of directors, invested at a price of C$0.05 per unit, instead of the C$0.045 per unit price made available to all other investors.Each common share purchase warrant will have an exercise price of CDN $0.05, and a term of 36 months from the date of issuance. Beginning on the date that is four months plus one day following the applicable issuance date, Kalytera may accelerate the expiry date of such common share purchase warrants to the date that is 30 days following notice of such acceleration should the daily volume weighted average trading price of Kalytera’s common shares be greater than C$1.00 for any 10 consecutive trading days on the TSXV.The TSXV has granted an extension to the deadline for the Company to complete all closings and satisfy all filing requirements in connection with the Private Placement until November 20, 2019.  The Company expects to complete the closing of any additional tranches of the Private Placement by the end of the month.As previously disclosed in more detail in the Company’s press release dated September 11, 2019, proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to fund preparatory work for initiation of the Company’s Phase 3 clinical registration study for its lead product development program evaluating cannabidiol (“CBD”) for the prevention of acute graft versus host disease (“GVHD”). Proceeds will also be used to augment the Company’s working capital as it enters into discussions with potential corporate partners for its GVHD program.The securities offered have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any U.S. state securities laws, and were not offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.
