STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

12. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Common stock

Each share of common stock has the right to one vote. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available, subject to prior rights of holders of all classes of stock outstanding having priority rights as to dividends.

On May 19, 2020, we completed the distribution of our announced digital dividend (the "Dividend") payable in shares of our Series A-1 preferred stock. The Dividend was paid out at a ratio of 1:10, so that one share of Series A-1 preferred stock was issued for every ten shares of OSTK common stock, for every ten shares of Series A-1 preferred stock, and for every ten shares of Series B preferred stock held by all holders of such shares as of April 27, 2020, the record date for the Dividend. The number of shares of Series A-1 preferred stock declared as a stock dividend was 4,085 as of December 31, 2019 and the number of shares distributed was 4,079 on May 19, 2020.

Preferred stock

Each share of our Series A preferred stock, Series A-1 preferred stock, and our Series B preferred stock (collectively, the "preferred shares"), except as required by law, are intended to have voting and dividend rights similar to those of one share of common stock. Preferred shares rank senior to common stock with respect to dividends. Holders of the preferred shares are entitled to an annual cash dividend of $0.16 per share, in preference to any dividend payment to the holders of the common stock, out of funds of the Company legally available for payment of dividends and subject to declaration by our Board of Directors. Holders of the preferred shares are also entitled to participate in any cash dividends we pay to the holders of the common stock and are also entitled to participate in non-cash dividends we pay to holders of the common stock, subject to potentially different treatment if we effect a stock dividend, stock split, or combination of the common stock. There are no arrearages in cumulative preferred dividends. We declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.16 per share to the holders of our preferred stock during 2018 and 2019.

Neither the Series A-1 preferred stock nor Series B preferred stock is required to be converted into or exchanged for shares of our common stock or any other entity; however, at our sole discretion, we may convert the Series A-1 preferred stock into Series B preferred stock at any time on a one-to-one basis. In the event of any liquidation, any amount available for distribution to stockholders after payment of all liabilities will be distributed proportionately, with each share of Series A-1 preferred stock and each share of Series B preferred stock being treated as though it were a share of our common stock. If we are party to any merger or consolidation in which our common stock is changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other person (or the Company) or cash or any other property (or a right to receive the foregoing), we will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause each outstanding share of the preferred stock to be treated as if such share were an additional outstanding share of common stock in connection with any such transaction. Neither the Series A-1 preferred stock nor the Series B preferred stock is registered under the Exchange Act.

Common Stock Offering

We completed a public offering of our common stock on August 14, 2020 and issued 2,415,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated August 11, 2020, for proceeds totaling $192.7 million, net of $11.4 million in offering costs.

JonesTrading Sales Agreement

We entered into an Amended and Restated Capital on Demand^TM Sales agreement dated June 26, 2020 with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC ("JonesTrading") and D.A. Davidson & Co. ("D.A. Davidson"), under which we may conduct "at the market" public offerings of our common stock. Under the sales agreement, JonesTrading and D.A. Davidson, acting as our agents, may offer our common stock in the market on a daily basis or otherwise as we request from time to time. We have no obligation to sell additional shares under the sales agreement, but we may do so from time to time. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we did not sell any shares of our common stock pursuant to the sales agreement but have received $2.8 million of proceeds that was included in Accounts receivable, net on our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 for the sale of an aggregate of 415,904 shares of our common stock under the prior iteration of the agreement that were executed in late December 2019. As of September 30, 2020, we had $150.0 million available under our "at the market" sales program.

GSR Agreement

On April 1, 2020, tZERO issued 508,710 shares of tZERO common stock, representing approximately 0.5% of the issued and outstanding common stock of tZERO, to GSR Capital Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company ("GSR") in exchange for $5.0 million in consideration in full satisfaction of the Investment Agreement dated May 8, 2019. GSR's installment payments towards the Investment Agreement were included in Accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet prior to the closing of the transaction.
