Private Placements

In January 2021, the Company issued in a private placement offering (the “January 2021 Private Placement”) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (“January 2021 Purchase Agreement”) (i) 196,920 shares of its common stock, and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 98,460 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $125.20 per share (the “January 2021 Warrants”) and raised total gross proceeds of $25.1 million. The January 2021 Warrants are exercisable at any time at the option of the holder and expire 5.5 years from the date of issuance. In connection with the January 2021 Private Placement, the Company granted to a placement agent warrants to purchase a total of 9,846 shares of Common Stock (the “January 2021 Placement Agent Warrants”) that have an exercise price per share equal to $159.60 and a term of 5.5 years from the date of issuance.

The common stock warrants are classified as a liability within Level 3 due to a contingent cash payment feature. The Company utilized the Black Scholes Merton model on January 28, 2021 with the following assumptions: volatility

of 123.8%, stock price of $115.20 and risk-free rate of 0.5%. The estimated fair value of the common stock warrant liability was subsequently remeasured at December 31, 2021 with the changes recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The January 2021 Placement Agent Warrants were issued for services performed by the placement agent as part of the January 2021 Private Placement and were treated as offering costs. The value of the January 2021 Placement Agent Warrants was determined to be $942,000, calculated using the Black-Scholes Model. The Company incurred additional offering costs totaling $1.9 million that consist of direct incremental legal, advisory, accounting and filing fees relating to the January 2021 Private Placement. The offering costs, inclusive of the January 2021 Placement Agent Warrants, totaled $2.8 million and allocated to the common stock warrant liability and the common stock using their relative fair values. A total of $769,000 was allocated to the common stock warrant liability and expensed and the remaining $2.0 million was allocated to the common stock and offset to additional paid in capital.

In March 2018, the Company issued in a private placement offering (the “March 2018 Private Placement”) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (“March 2018 Purchase Agreement”) (i) 7,519 shares of its common stock and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 7,519 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price equal to $1,830.00 (the “March 2018 Warrants”) and raised total gross proceeds of $10.0 million. The March 2018 Warrants are exercisable at any time at the option of the holder and expire five years from the date of issuance. In connection with the March 2018 Private Placement, the Company granted to a placement agent warrants to purchase a total of 376 shares of Common Stock (the “March 2018 Placement Agent Warrants”) that have an exercise price per share equal to $1,662.50 and a term of five years from the date of issuance.

The number of shares of common stock and the number and exercise price of the March 2018 Warrants issued in the March 2018 Private Placement were subject to adjustments as provided in the March 2018 Purchase Agreement. Following the adjustments as provided in the March 2018 Purchase Agreement, the number of shares issued to the purchasers was 30,041, the total number of shares issuable upon exercise of the March 2018 Warrants was 32,071 and the per share exercise price of the March 2018 Warrants was $429.03.
