Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
PIPE Offering
On July 28, 2025, ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “PIPE Purchase Agreement”) with existing institutional investors, each of which qualifies as an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, for the purpose of raising approximately $3.0 million in aggregate gross proceeds for the Company (the “PIPE Offering”) before deducting fees and other expenses payable by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the PIPE Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell warrants to purchase 15,616,360 Common Shares (the “Warrants”). The Warrants will be sold to the investors at an offering price of $0.1875 per share and have an exercise price of $1.25 per share.
The Warrants are immediately exercisable and will expire five years after the date of issuance. The holder of the Warrant may not exercise such Warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
The gross proceeds from the PIPE Offering will be approximately $3.0 million, before paying estimated offering expenses. In conjunction with the proceeds from the exercise of existing warrants, the total gross proceeds to the Company inclusive of the PIPE Offering will be approximately $12.0 million. Delivery of the Warrants is expected to take place on or about July 29, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the PIPE Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the PIPE investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company is required to prepare and file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act, covering the resale of the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants issued to the PIPE investors under the PIPE Purchase Agreement. The Company is required to file the Registration Statement with the SEC within 45 days after the date of the final closing of the PIPE Offering (the “Filing Date”) and is required to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.
The foregoing descriptions of the material terms of the PIPE Purchase Agreement, the Warrants, and the Registration Rights Agreement, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Form of PIPE Purchase Agreement, the Form of Warrant, and the Form of Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.
