Item 1.01 Entry Into Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 1, 2022 (the "Closing Date"), Guided Therapeutics, Inc. (the
"Company"), a Delaware corporation, entered into certain Securities Purchase
Agreements (the "Agreement") with certain accredited investors (the
"Investors"), including Richard Blumberg, Michael James and John Imhoff, each a
member of the Company's Board of Directors, pursuant to which the Company issued
6,636,540 shares (the "Shares") of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share
(the "Common Stock"), and four year warrants to purchase an aggregate of
6,636,540 shares of Common Stock at $0.50 per share and 6,636,540 shares of
Common Stock at $0.65 per share (the "Warrants") for an aggregate purchase price
of $3,318,270 (the "Transaction").
The Company has agreed that, as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the
Company shall file a Registration Statement on the appropriate form providing
for the resale by the Investors of the Shares and the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Warrants (the "Warrant Shares" and collectively with the Shares
and the Warrants, the "Securities") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become effective within 120 days following the Closing
Date and to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times until the
earlier of the date that the Shares and Warrant Shares may be resold pursuant to
Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) and the date that no
Investor owns any Securities. In the event that the Registration Statement is
not effective on the 121st day following the Closing Date, the Company shall
issue to each Investor an additional number of shares of Common Stock equal to
10% of the Shares issued to such Investor and an additional number of shares of
Common Stock equal to 5% of the Shares issued to such Purchaser on each monthly
anniversary thereafter until the earlier of the date the Registration Statement
is effective and the date that the Shares and Warrant Shares may be resold
pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants). The Company
may avoid these penalties if, prior to the 121st day following the closing date,
it files an application to list the Common Stock on a recognized Canadian Stock
Exchange. In addition, if there is no effective Registration Statement covering
the Warrant Shares after 180th day following the Closing Date, the Warrants may
be exercised cashlessly as set forth in the Warrants.
After payment of all fees and expenses relating to the transaction, the Company
received net proceeds of approximately $3.2 million. The primary use of proceeds
is to fund the completion and filing of clinical study data needed for FDA
approval of the Company's LuViva Advanced Cervical Scan. Additional use of
proceeds is to support international distribution partners to grow sales
throughout the remainder of 2022 and into 2023, as well as for general and
administrative expenses.
In connection with the Transaction, on September 1, 2022, the Company has agreed
to exchange certain debt and equity owned by Auctus Funds, LLC ("Auctus")
pursuant to an Exchange Agreement between the Company and Auctus (the "Exchange
Agreement"). Auctus has exchanged $1,060,911 owed to it in debt and 8,775,000
warrants it currently holds that are priced between $0.15 and $0.20 for $1.95
million worth of investment in this Transaction, and as a result, received
3,900,000 Shares, Warrants to purchase 3,900,000 Warrant Shares at $0.50 per
share and 3,900,000 Warrant Shares at $0.65 per share (the "Exchange"). In
addition, the Company made a repayment of $221,467 to Auctus pursuant to the
terms of the Exchange Agreement (the "Repayment"). Following the Exchange and
Repayment, Auctus owns approximately $490,000 in debt to be repaid to Auctus
over an 18-month period in four equal installments. The first installment of
approximately $125,000 was paid on September 8, 2022.
