On February 9, 2021, Enlivex Therapeutics Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), entered into an amended and restated underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”) with respect to the offer, issuance and sale (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of 2,296,107 ordinary shares, NIS 0.40 par value per share, of the Company (the “ordinary shares”), together with an option granted to Wainwright to purchase up to 344,416 additional ordinary shares. The Offering was effected pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-232009) together with the post-effective amendment thereto (File No. 333-252926) and a related base prospectus, together with the related preliminary prospectus supplement and prospectus supplement dated February 9, 2021 (collectively, the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The ordinary shares were offered to the public at a price of $20.00 per share.

 

The Offering closed on February 12, 2021, on which date the Company completed the issuance of 2,296,107 ordinary shares to Wainwright at a price of $18.60 per ordinary share, as set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

 

Wainwright acted as the sole book-running manager in connection with the Offering. In accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, the Company paid Wainwright underwriting discounts and commissions equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the ordinary shares in the Offering, as well as a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the ordinary shares in the Offering. In addition, the Company issued to Wainwright or its designees warrants to purchase up to 7.0% of the aggregate number of ordinary shares sold in the Offering (the “Underwriter Warrants”). The Underwriter Warrants are exercisable for five years from commencement of the Offering and have an exercise price equal to 125% of the public offering price per ordinary share in the Offering, or $25.00 per ordinary share, subject to customary adjustments as provided in the Underwriter Warrants. The Underwriter Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Underwriter Warrants have been offered in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has also paid Wainwright $25,000 for non-accountable expenses, up to $85,000 for documented reimbursable expenses and $15,950 for clearing fees.

 

The net proceeds from the Offering were approximately $42.7 million after deducting Wainwright’s fees and other estimated expenses relating to the Offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for (i) clinical, regulatory, manufacturing and research and development activities; (ii) potential acquisitions and in-licensing; and (iii) other general corporate purposes.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties thereto, and the Company has agreed to customary indemnification provisions in favor of Wainwright.
