Die untenstehende Meldung ist eine Original-Meldung des Unternehmens. Sie ist nicht von der ECOreporter.de-Redaktion bearbeitet. Die presserechtliche Verantwortlichkeit liegt bei dem meldenden Unternehmen.
LAKE FOREST, California - Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. (QTWW), a global leader in natural gas storage systems, integration and vehicle system technologies, announced that it has agreed to sell common stock and warrants for gross proceeds of $3,000,000 in a registered direct offering (the "Offering") with Crede CG III, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crede Capital Group, LLC ("Crede").
Under the Offering, the Company will issue to Crede 4,918,032 shares of common stock and a warrant to initially purchase up to an aggregate of 2,950,819 shares of common stock. The purchase price per share of common stock equaled the Company's consolidated closing bid price on May 15, 2013 of $0.61. The warrant has a five-year term, and is immediately exercisable at a price of $0.671 per share. The holder of the warrant may, at any time after 30 days from the issuance of the warrant until its expiration, elect to exchange all or part of the warrant for, at the Company's option, cash or shares of common stock (provided certain conditions are satisfied), or a combination thereof, equal to the value of the warrant at the time of the exchange based on a prescribed Black-Scholes formula. If the number of shares of common stock required to settle the exchange would exceed 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares prior to the closing of the Offering, then the value of the shares in excess of such limit may be settled by the Company in cash or by delivery of a one-year 10% unsecured promissory note. The holder may not exchange the warrant unless the trading price for a share of the Company's common stock is below the warrant's exercise price. The warrant also provides that, under certain circumstances, the Company will have the ability to cause the holder to exercise the warrant for cash. The warrant also provides that if the Company's common stock is delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, then the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrant at the time of such delisting shall automatically be adjusted upward by multiplying the number of shares underlying the warrant at the time of the delisting by 116.667%.
Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the "Placement Agent") served as the Company's exclusive placement agent in connection with the Offering and will receive a cash fee of $210,000, which represents 7.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Offering.
The net proceeds realized by the Company in connection with the Offering, after deducting the Placement Agent's fee and other Offering expenses, are expected to be approximately $2.7 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The common shares and warrant described above and the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant are being offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated as of May 16, 2013, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in connection with a takedown from the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-176772), which became effective on September 29, 2011, and the base prospectus dated September 29, 2011.
