| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On October 26, 2020 (the “Execution Date”), NuZee, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Triton Funds LP (the “Investor”) pursuant to which the Company may offer to the Investor and sell to the Investor shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1,000,000 (the “Offering”) during a seven calendar-day period commencing on the Execution Date (the “Commitment Period”). The Investor’s purchase price for each share will be equal to 90% of the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market for the five trading days preceding the closing date.
The Company intends to deliver to the Investor as soon as practicable the purchase notice exercising the Company’s put option for the full $1,000,000 investment amount under the Purchase Agreement, and expects that the closing of the Offering and receipt of payment for the shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Offering will be completed no later than November 2, 2020, which is the final date of the Commitment Period. The Offering is being made pursuant to a prospectus supplement to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333- 248531).
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the Company.
The Company estimates it will receive net proceeds of the sale of its common stock pursuant to the Offering, before deducting offering expenses payable by the Company, of approximately $1,000,000, at an assumed offering price to the Investor of $13.707 per share, which is equal to 90% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market on October 26, 2020. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Each $1.00 increase in the assumed offering price to the Investor of $13.707 per share, which is equal to 90% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market on October 26, 2020, would decrease the number of shares the Company issues to the Investor in the Offering by approximately 5,000 shares and each $1.00 decrease in the assumed offering price to the Investor would increase the number of shares the Company issues to the Investor by approximately 5,700 shares. The Company does not expect that a change in the number of shares by these amounts would have a material effect on its intended uses of the net proceeds from the Offering.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
