As you can see, most of the sellers are not really unloading . . . .

But I guess I don't understand the $1.375 maximum price in light of the current price. Are these shares being sold because warrants are being exercised, or because of some other pre-existing financing deal?

AFTER EDIT: I see these notes to the above, which help:
(1) Pursuant to Rule 415, the Registration Statement relates to an indeterminate number of shares of Common Stock which have either been issued or are issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants.
(2) Pursuant to Rule 457, estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee, based upon the last reported sales price of the Registrant's Common Stock of the same class as quoted by the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System on April 15, 1998.
and, finally, this:
Outstanding Options and Warrants.
As of the date of this Prospectus, the Company had granted options and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,195,926 shares of Common Stock that had not been exercised. Of the shares of Common [page break omitted] Stock subject to these unexercised options and warrants, 5,000 may be purchased for less than $1.00; 3,446,926 may be purchased for between $1.00 and $1.99 per share; 499,500 may be purchased for between $2.00 and $2.99 per share; 162,000 may be purchased for between $3.00 and $3.99 per share; 50,000 may be purchased for between $4.00 and $4.99 per share; and 32,500 may be purchased for between $5.00 to $5.99 per share. To the extent that the outstanding stock options and warrants are exercised, dilution to the interests of the Company's stockholders will occur. Moreover, the terms upon which the Company will be able to obtain additional equity capital may be affected adversely, since the holders of the outstanding options and warrants can be expected to exercise them at a time when the Company would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any needed capital on terms more favorable to the Company than those provided in the outstanding options and warrants.
So does it look like the company had the chance to satisfy the warrant/option holders by issuing new shares but chose not to? |
