Helix TCS, Inc. (OTCMKTS:HLIX) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive AgreementItem 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, on May 17, 2017, Helix TCS, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), RSF4, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), and Helix Opportunities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Helix LLC” and, together with the Company and the Purchaser, the “Parties”) entered into that certain Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Initial Series B Purchase Agreement”) whereby the Company conducted an initial closing of the sale of its Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) to Purchaser. In accordance with the terms of the Initial Series B Purchase Agreement, the Parties also entered into (i) an Investors Rights Agreement, (ii) a Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement, and (iii) a Voting Agreement (collectively, the “Series B Financing Agreements”). The Initial Series B Purchase Agreement contemplates additional closings.
Effective December 19, 2017, the Parties entered into that certain Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement whereby the Company conducted an eighth closing of the sale of its Series B Preferred Stock and issued and sold to the Purchaser 2,449,634 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock in exchange for an aggregate cash payment equal to $795,000.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.
These securities were not registered under the Securities Act, but qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by the Company did not involve a “public offering,” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, and manner of the offering and number of securities offered. The Company did not undertake an offering in which it sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, the Investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since they agreed to, and received, the securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
