Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On March 4, 2019, Know Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) closed a private placement and received gross proceeds of $2,409,975 in exchange for issuing Subordinated Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) and Warrants (the “Warrants”) in a private placement to 26 accredited investors, pursuant to a series of substantially identical Securities Purchase Agreements, Common Stock Warrants, and related documents.

 

The Convertible Notes have a principal amount of $2,409,975 and bear annual interest of 8%. Both the principal amount of and the interest are payable on a payment-in-kind basis in shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”). They are due and payable (in Common Stock) on the earlier of (a) mandatory and automatic conversion of the Convertible Notes into a financing that yields gross proceeds of at least $10,000,000 (a “Qualified Financing”) or (b) on the one-year anniversary of the Convertible Notes (the “Maturity Date”). Investors will be required to convert their Convertible Notes into Common Stock in any Qualified Financing at a conversion price per share equal to the lower of (i) $1.00 per share or (ii) a 25% discount to the price per share paid by investors in the Qualified Financing. If the Convertible Notes have not been paid or converted prior to the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes will be automatically converted into shares of Common Stock at the lesser of (a) $1.00 per share or (b) any adjusted price resulting from the application of a “most favored nations” provision, which requires the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock to investors if the Company issues certain securities at less than the then-current conversion price.

 

The Warrants were granted on a 1:0.5 basis (one-half Warrant for each full share of Common Stock into which the Convertible Notes are convertible). The Warrants have a five-year term and an exercise price equal to 120% of the per share conversion price of the Qualified Financing or other mandatory conversion.

 

The Convertible Notes are initially convertible into 2,409,975 shares of Common Stock, subject to certain adjustments, and the Warrants are initially exercisable for 1,204,988 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share of Common Stock, also subject to certain adjustments.

 

In connection with the private placement, the placement agent for the Convertible Notes and the Warrants received a cash fee of $192,798 and warrants to purchase 289,197 shares of the Company’s common stock, all based on 8% of gross proceeds to the Company. The placement agent has also received a $25,000 advisory fee.

 

As part of the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, which grants the investors “demand” and “piggyback” registration rights to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Convertible Notes and the exercise of the Warrants with the Securities and Exchange Commission for resale or other disposition. In addition, the Convertible Notes are subordinated to certain senior debt of the Company pursuant to a Subordination Agreement executed by the investors.

 

The Convertible Notes and Warrants were issued in transactions that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) in reliance upon applicable exemptions from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Act and/or Rule 506 of SEC Regulation D under the Act.  

 

The Company expects to continue offering additional Convertible Notes and Warrants on substantially the same terms until April 15, 2019 (unless extended at the discretion of the Company) or until the Company has raised a maximum of $5 million in gross proceeds (or such other amount determined by the Company in its discretion).

 

The foregoing description of the financing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the forms of Securities Purchase Agreement, Subscription Agreement, Subordinated Convertible Note, Common Stock Purchase Warrant, Subordination Agreement, and Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6, respectively, and which are incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.
