Item 3.02.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On December 15, 2020, Pixelworks, Inc. (the “Company”) completed a private placement of 2,475,712 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) to a certain accredited investor at a purchase price of $2.071 per share, which price was agreed to on October 19, 2020. The sale of the shares of Common Stock was made pursuant to the second and final closing under that certain Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 4, 2020 (the “Agreement”), which amended and restated the previously reported Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of October 19, 2020 by and between the Company and the investors named therein to add an additional investor. Gross proceeds to the Company from the second closing of the private placement were approximately $5.1 million.

The shares of Common Stock issued in the above-mentioned private placement were sold in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to a limited number of persons who are “accredited investors” as defined in Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, without the use of any general solicitation or advertising to market or otherwise offer the securities for sale. The Company relied on this exemption from registration based in part on representations made by the investors.

The securities sold in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration requirements. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company.

 

Item 8.01.

Other Events

On December 16, 2020, the Company closed the full exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters by the purchase of an additional 735,000 shares of its common stock, at a price to the public of $2.45 per share, in connection with the Company’s recently announced underwritten public offering. This exercise increased the total shares of common stock issued in the offering to 5,635,000 and increased total gross proceeds from the offering to $13,805,750, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company. Roth Capital Partners, LLC and Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC acted as joint book-running managers for the offering.

The offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-249934) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The offering was made only by means of a prospectus supplement and an accompanying prospectus.
