On June 26, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), to the Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”), dated as of June 21, 2018, by and between the Company and the institutional investors party to the SPA (the “Buyers”), the Company completed the sale and issuance of 20,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”) and Series B-2 senior convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $164,000,000 (which includes an approximate 15.0% original issue discount) (the “Convertible Notes”), for total consideration consisting of an aggregate cash payment to the Company of $20,500,000 and secured promissory notes payable by the Buyers to the Company (the “Investor Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $139,400,000 (collectively, the “Financing”). Unless earlier converted or redeemed, the Convertible Notes will mature on June 26, 2020. The maturity date of the Investor Note is June 26, 2060. On the Closing Date, in connection with the closing of the Financing:

The information included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On June 21, 2018, the Company received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock has closed below a minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (“Rule 5550(a)(2)”). The Nasdaq deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock, and its common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol “HMNY” at this time.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), the Company has been given 180 calendar days, or until December 18, 2018 to regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2). If the Company chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete the split no later than ten business days prior to December 18, 2018 to regain compliance. If at any time before December 18, 2018, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written confirmation that the Company has achieved compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2).

If the Company does not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) by December 18, 2018, the Company may be afforded a second 180 calendar day period to regain compliance. To qualify, the Company would be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, except for the minimum bid price requirement. In addition, the Company would be required to notify Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, which may include, if necessary, implementing a reverse stock split.

If the Company does not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) by December 18, 2018, and is not eligible for an additional compliance period at that time, the Staff will provide notice to the Company that its securities will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the Staff’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (“Panel”). The Company would remain listed pending the Panel’s decision.

To regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2), the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a preliminary proxy statement for a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”), which includes a proposal to approve an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a one-time reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of common stock at a ratio of 1 share-for-2 shares up to a ratio of 1 share-for-250 shares, which ratio will be selected by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Reverse Split Proposal”). There can be no assurance that the Company's stockholders will approve the Reverse Split Proposal or that the Reverse Split will result in a sustained increase in the per share market price for the common stock for the minimum period necessary to permit the Company to regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2).

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information included in Item 2.03 of this Current Report is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

As previously disclosed in the June 21, 2018 Report, Canaccord Genuity, Inc. (“Canaccord”) acted as placement agent for the Financing. Canaccord is entitled to (1) a cash fee equal to three percent (3%) of gross proceeds with respect to the sale of the Convertible Notes and Preferred Stock to Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd. (“Hudson Bay”) and (2) a cash fee equal to seven percent (7%) of gross proceeds received by the Company with respect to the sale of the Convertible Notes and Preferred Stock to other investors.

In addition, Palladium Capital Advisors, LLC (“Palladium”) is entitled to (1) five percent (5%) of the gross cash proceeds actually received by the Company from Hudson Bay in connection with the sale of Convertible Notes and the Preferred Stock, as and when received; plus (2) a warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase eight percent (8%) of the number of shares of common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) determined by dividing the aggregate purchase price of the Preferred Stock purchased by Hudson Bay by the Conversion Price in effect as of the Subscription Date and eight percent (8%) of the number of shares of common stock into which any Unrestricted Principal of the Note purchased by Hudson Bay is initially convertible at the Conversion Price in effect as of the Subscription Date, at an exercise price equal to the Conversion Price of the Note in effect as of the Subscription Date, without regard to any adjustment of the Conversion Price resulting from the anti-dilution provision of the Note, other than proportionate adjustments to the Conversion Price resulting from stock splits or combinations or similar proportionately applied changes to the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The above discussion does not purport to be a complete description of the Warrant described in this Current Report and it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such document, which is attached as an exhibit to the June 21, 2018 Current Report and is incorporated in this Current Report by reference.

The Securities, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, and the Preferred Stock were offered and sold to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Regulation D thereunder. Each Buyer represented to the Company that the Buyer is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act and that the Convertible Notes, the Conversion Shares, and the Preferred Stock were acquired solely for the Buyer’s own account and for investment purposes and not with a view to the future sale or distribution of any such securities by the Buyer. Appropriate legends were affixed to the Convertible Notes and the Preferred Stock and will be affixed to the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares upon issuance.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

To the extent required, the information included in Item 1.01 and 5.03 of this Current Report is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.
