Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 26, 2024, Flora Growth Corp. (the "Company") entered into an At-The-Market Issuances Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with Aegis Capital Corp. (the "Agent") pursuant to which the Company may sell from time to time, at its option, common shares through the Agent in its capacity as sales agent. The sale of common shares, if any, will be made under the Company's registration statement filed on Form S-3 (File No. 333-274204) (the "Registration Statement"), by any method that is deemed to be an "at the market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market to sell on the Company's behalf all of the common shares requested to be sold by the Company. The Agent will offer the common shares, subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, on a daily basis or as otherwise agreed upon by the Company and the Agent. The Company will designate the maximum amount of common shares to be sold through the Agent on a daily basis or otherwise determine such maximum amount, together with the Agent. The Company may instruct the Agent not to sell common shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Company in any such instruction. The Company or the Agent may suspend the offering of common shares being made through the Agent under the Sales Agreement upon proper notice to the other parties.
The aggregate compensation payable to the Agent, on behalf of the Agent, shall be up to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of the common shares sold through the Agent pursuant to the Sales Agreement. In addition, the Company has agreed in the Sales Agreement to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The Company is not obligated to make any sales of common shares under the Sales Agreement. The offering of common shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Sales Agreement by the Company or by the Agent, only with respect to itself, under the circumstances specified in the Sales Agreement.
The Sales Agreement is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the material terms of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the exhibit attached hereto.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the common shares discussed herein, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of the common shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
