Item 1.01. |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On January 31, 2013, iBio, Inc. (iBio or we) entered into an At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement (Sales Agreement) with Further Lane Securities, L.P. (Further Lane) pursuant to which we may sell, at our option, up to an aggregate of $10 million in shares of our common stock through Further Lane, as sales agent. Sales of the common stock made pursuant to the Sales Agreement, if any, will be made on the NYSE MKT exchange under our previously filed and currently effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-175420) by means of ordinary brokers transactions at market prices. Additionally, under the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may also sell shares of our common stock through Further Lane, on the NYSE MKT exchange or otherwise, at negotiated prices or at prices related to the prevailing market price. Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may also sell shares to Further Lane as principal for Further Lanes own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale pursuant to a separate terms agreement to be entered into with Further Lane at such time. Further Lane will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell our common stock from time to time, based upon our instructions (including any price, time or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions we may impose). We cannot provide any assurances that we will issue any shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. We will pay Further Lane a commission equal to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock under the Sales Agreement, if any. We have also agreed to reimburse Further Lane for certain expenses incurred in connection with entering into the Sales Agreement and have provided Further Lane with customary indemnification rights. The offering of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (a) the sale of all of the common stock subject to the Sales Agreement or (b) the termination of the Sales Agreement by us or Further Lane. Either party may terminate the agreement in its sole discretion upon written notice to the other party, as specified in the Sales Agreement.
The Sales Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report on Form 8-K, is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
We intend to file a prospectus supplement relating to the ATM program with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy the securities discussed herein, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of the securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
