Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 24, 2024, Perspective Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc., as representative of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), in connection with its previously announced underwritten offering (the “Offering”) of 51,515,880 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and, in lieu of Shares to certain investors, pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 1,464,252 shares of Common Stock. The price to the investors for the Shares was $1.51 per Share, and the price to the investors for the Pre-Funded Warrants was $1.509 per Pre-Funded Warrant, which represents the per share price for the Shares less the $0.001 per share exercise price for each such Pre-Funded Warrant. The Offering closed on May 29, 2024. BofA Securities, Inc., Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC acted as joint book-running managers for the Offering and B. Riley Securities, Inc. acted as a co-manager for the Offering. JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC acted as a financial advisor for the Offering.

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $80 million, before underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses of the Offering.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for: (i) the continued clinical development of VMT-α-NET, VMT-01/02 and PSV359; (ii) the continued development of PSV40X and additional preclinical product candidates as well as broader development platform; and (iii) the build out, operation and expansion of manufacturing facilities, as well as for working capital and other general corporate purposes. A portion of the net proceeds may also be used to acquire, license or invest in complementary products, technologies, intellectual property or businesses, although the Company has no present commitments or agreements to do so.

 

The Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-279692), which became effective upon filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 24, 2024, a related base prospectus, free writing prospectus and prospectus supplement each dated May 24, 2024.

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable subsequent to the filing and effectiveness of a charter amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware providing for a sufficient amount of authorized shares of Common Stock to allow for the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”) are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock as well as upon any distribution of assets, including cash, stock or other property, to the Company’s stockholders. The Pre-Funded Warrants will not expire and are exercisable in cash or by means of a cashless exercise. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise such Pre-Funded Warrants if the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% or 9.99%, as elected by such holder, of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock following such exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage not in excess of 19.99% by providing at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants, as soon as practicable following the closing of the Offering, the Company is required to hold an annual or special meeting of stockholders (the “Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of obtaining stockholder approval to effectively increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance and thereby allowing for a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to be reserved for the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants pursuant to the terms thereunder. The Company is required to use its best efforts to hold the Stockholder Meeting no later than May 31, 2024 (the “Stockholder Approval Deadline”). If, despite the Company’s best efforts, Stockholder Approval is not effected on or prior to the Stockholder Approval Deadline, the Company is required to cause an additional stockholder meeting (each an “Additional Stockholder Meeting”) to be held every seventy-five (75) days thereafter until such Stockholder Approval is obtained. Once Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company is required to file the applicable charter amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware evidencing such Stockholder Approval within thirty (30) days of obtaining such Stockholder Approval. If by the date that is ten (10) days following the first Additional Stockholder Meeting following the Stockholder Approval Deadline the Pre-Funded Warrant is not exercisable by the holder, then the holder has certain buy-in rights which would require the Company to pay a to-be-determined cash amount to the holder.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters (as defined therein), including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

 

The foregoing summaries of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Pre-Funded Warrants do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement and the Form of Pre-Funded Warrant, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and Exhibit 4.1, respectively, and which are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Hogan Lovells US LLP, counsel to the Company, delivered an opinion as to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants in the Offering, as well as the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Perspective Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”), confirms its agreement with BofA Securities, Inc. (“BofA”) and each of the other Underwriters named in Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Underwriters,” which term shall also include any underwriter substituted as hereinafter provided in Section ‎10 hereof), for whom BofA is acting as representative (in such capacity, the “Representative”), with respect to the sale by the Company and the purchase by the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of the respective numbers of shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) and pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $0.001 per share (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), set forth in Schedules A and B hereto. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants are hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The aforesaid Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants to be purchased by the Underwriters and the Warrant Shares are herein called, collectively, the “Securities.”

The Company understands that the Underwriters propose to make a registered offering of the Securities as soon as the Representative deems advisable after this underwriting agreement (this “Agreement”) has been executed and delivered.

The Company has prepared and filed on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 covering the offering and sale of certain securities, including the Securities, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act Regulations”), which automatic shelf registration statement became effective under Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 462(e)”). Such registration statement, as of any time, means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto to such time, including the exhibits and any schedules thereto at such time, the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B under the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 430B”), is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement;” provided, however, that the “Registration Statement” without reference to a time means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto as of the time of the first contract of sale for the Securities, which time shall be considered the “new effective date” of such registration statement with respect to the Securities within the meaning of paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 430B, including the exhibits and schedules thereto as of such time, the documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B. Each preliminary prospectus used in connection with the offering

 


 

of the Securities, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, are collectively referred to herein as a “preliminary prospectus.” Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will prepare and file a final prospectus relating to the Securities in accordance with the provisions of Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 424(b)”). The final prospectus, in the form first furnished or made available to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of the Securities, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, are collectively referred to herein as the “Prospectus.” For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor system) (“EDGAR”).

“Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is intended for general distribution to prospective investors (other than a “bona fide electronic road show,” as defined in Rule 433), as evidenced by its being specified in Schedule B-2 hereto.

SECTION 1.
Representations and Warranties.
(a)
Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents and warrants to each Underwriter as of the date hereof, the Applicable Time and the Closing Time (as defined below) and agrees with each Underwriter, as follows:
(i)
Registration Statement and Prospectuses. The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act. The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement” (as defined in Rule 405) and the Securities have been and remain eligible for registration by the Company on such automatic shelf registration statement. The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Securities Act, no order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus has been issued and no proceedings for any of those purposes have been instituted or are pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, contemplated by the Commission. The Company has complied with each request (if any) from the Commission for additional information.

Each of the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, at the time of its effectiveness, each deemed effective date with respect to the Underwriters pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act Regulations, the Applicable Time and the Closing Time complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations. Each preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, at the time each was filed with the Commission, and, in each case, at the Applicable Time and the Closing Time complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act Regulations and each preliminary prospectus, if any, delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with this offering and the Prospectus will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, when they became effective or at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Exchange Act (the “Exchange Act Regulations”).

(ii)
Accurate Disclosure. Neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereto, at its effective time, on the date hereof or at the Closing Time, contained, contains or will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. At the Applicable Time, none of (A) the General Disclosure Package, (B) any individual Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package and (C) and individual Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material

3


 

fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Neither the Prospectus nor any amendment or supplement thereto, as of its issue date, at the time of any filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), at the Closing Time, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective or when such documents incorporated by reference were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, when read together with the other information in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, did not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

The representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through BofA expressly for use therein. For purposes of this Agreement, the only information so furnished shall be the information in the first paragraph under the heading “Underwriting–Commissions and Discounts,” the information in the second, third and fourth paragraphs under the heading “Underwriting–Price Stabilization, Short Positions” and the information under the heading “Underwriting–Electronic Distribution” in each case contained in the Prospectus (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”).

(iii)
Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. No Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein, and any preliminary or other prospectus deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. Any offer that is a written communication relating to the Securities made prior to the initial filing of the Registration Statement by the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this paragraph only, of Rule 163(c) of the Securities Act Regulations) has been filed with the Commission in accordance with the exemption provided by Rule 163 under the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 163”) and otherwise complied with the requirements of Rule 163, including without limitation the legending requirement, to qualify such offer for the exemption from Section 5(c) of the Securities Act provided by Rule 163.
(iv)
Well-Known Seasoned Issuer. (A) At the original effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (B) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or form of prospectus), (C) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c) under the Securities Act) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption of Rule 163 under the Securities Act, and (D) as of the Applicable Time, the Company was and is a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405).
(v)
Testing-the-Waters Materials. The Company (A) has not engaged in any Testing-the-Waters Communication other than with entities that the Company reasonably believes are qualified institutional buyers or institutions that are accredited investors within the meaning of Rule

4


 

163B under the Securities Act and (B) has not authorized anyone other than the Representative or one or more of the Underwriters to engage in Testing-the-Waters Communications. The Company reconfirms that the Representative has been authorized to act on its behalf in undertaking Testing-the-Waters Communications.
(vi)
Company Not Ineligible Issuer. The Company was not and is not an ineligible issuer as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act at the times specified in Rules 164 and 433 under the Securities Act in connection with the offering of the Securities.
(vii)
Independent Accountants. Assure CPA, LLC (the “Predecessor Auditor”), whose report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company is filed with the Commission as part of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission and incorporated into the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, are and, during the periods covered by their report, were independent public accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). WithumSmith+Brown, PC (the “Auditor”), which is the Company’s current independent public accounting firm, is an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). To the Company’s knowledge, the Auditor is not in violation of the auditor independence requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) with respect to the Company.
(viii)
Financial Statements; Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The consolidated financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, together with the related notes and schedules, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and the Subsidiaries (as defined below) as of the dates indicated and the consolidated results of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity of the Company and the Subsidiaries for the periods specified (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate) and have been prepared in compliance in all material respects with the published requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, as in effect as of the time of filing and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States as in effect as of the time of filing (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis (except (i) for such adjustments to accounting standards and practices as are noted therein and (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) during the periods involved; the other financial and statistical data with respect to the Company and the Subsidiaries contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, are accurately and fairly presented in all material respects and prepared on a basis materially consistent with the financial statements and books and records of the Company. The pro forma financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus present fairly in all material respects the information shown therein, have been prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines with respect to pro forma financial statements and have been properly compiled on the bases described therein, and the assumptions used in the preparation thereof are reasonable and the adjustments used therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions and circumstances referred to therein. Except as included therein, there are no financial statements (historical or pro forma) that are required to be included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus that are not included or incorporated by reference as required; the Company and the Subsidiaries do not have any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent (including any off balance sheet obligations), not described in the Registration

5


 

Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus which are required to be described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or Prospectus; and all disclosures contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, if any, regarding “non-‐GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the Commission) comply in all material respects with Regulation G of the Exchange Act and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, to the extent applicable. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus fairly presents the information called for in all material respects and has been prepared in accordance with the Commission's rules and guidelines applicable thereto.
(ix)
Good Standing. The Company and any subsidiary that is a significant subsidiary (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Commission) (each, a “Subsidiary,” and collectively, the “Subsidiaries”), are, and will be, duly organized, validly existing as a corporation and, except as would not, with regard to the Company or any Subsidiary, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, are and will be in good standing (where such concept exists) under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of organization. The Company and the Subsidiaries are duly licensed or qualified as a foreign corporation for transaction of business and in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which their respective ownership or lease of property or the conduct of their respective businesses requires such license or qualification, and have all corporate power and authority necessary to own or hold their respective properties and to conduct their respective businesses as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing or have such power or authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the assets, business, operations, earnings, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Material Adverse Effect”).
(x)
No Material Adverse Change in Business. Since the date of the most recent financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there has not been (i) any Material Adverse Effect, or any development that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) any transaction which is material to the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, (iii) any obligation or liability, direct or contingent (including any off-balance sheet obligations), incurred by the Company or the Subsidiaries, which is material to the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, (iv) any material change in the capital stock (other than (A) the grant of additional options or other equity awards under the Company’s equity incentive plans described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, (B) changes in the number of outstanding Common Stock of the Company due to the issuance of shares upon the exercise or conversion of securities exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, (C) as a result of the issuance of the Securities, (D) any repurchases of capital stock of the Company, (E) as described in a proxy statement filed on Schedule 14A or a Registration Statement on Form S-4, or (F) otherwise publicly announced) or outstanding long-term indebtedness of the Company or the Subsidiaries or (v) any dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made on the capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, other than in each case above in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (including any document incorporated by reference therein).

(xi)

(b)
Payment. Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates or security entitlements for, the Securities shall be made at the offices of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company, at 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second (third, if the pricing occurs after 4:30 P.M. (New York City time) on any given day) business day after the date hereof (unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section ‎10), or such other time not later than ten business days after such date as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called “Closing Time”).

Delivery of the Shares at the Closing Time shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company unless the Representative shall instruct otherwise. The Pre-Funded Warrants shall be delivered to the purchasers of the Pre-Funded Warrants in definitive form, registered in such names and in such denominations as the purchasers of the Pre-Funded Warrants shall request in writing not later than the Closing Time. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be made available for inspection by the Representative on the business day prior to the Closing Time. The Company and the Representative shall instruct purchasers of the Pre-Funded Warrants in the offering to make payment for the Pre-Funded Warrants at the Closing Time to the Company by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company at a purchase price of $1.509 per Pre-Funded Warrant, in lieu of payment by the Underwriters for such Pre-Funded Warrants, and the Company shall deliver such Pre-Funded Warrants to such purchasers at the Closing Time in definitive form against such payment, in lieu of the Company’s obligation to deliver such Pre-Funded Warrants to the Underwriters; provided that the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than the Closing Time) pay $0.1057 per such Pre-Funded Warrant to the Underwriters by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Representative. In the event that the purchasers of the Pre-Funded Warrants in the offering fail to make payment to the Company for all or part of the Pre-Funded Warrants on the Closing Time, the Representative may elect, by written notice to the Company, to receive shares of Common Stock in lieu of all or a portion of such Pre-Funded Warrants at the purchase price per Share listed in paragraph 2 section (a) of Schedule A hereto at the Closing Time in the manner contemplated herein in connection with the issuance and purchase of Shares; provided that the Representative may not make any such election prior to the Stockholder Approval and the filing and effectiveness of the Charter Amendment (each as defined herein).

BofA, individually and not as representative of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Securities to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds have not been received by the Closing Time but such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from its obligations hereunder.

The Company, subject to Section ‎3(b), will comply with the requirements of Rule 430B, and will promptly notify the Representative, and confirm the notice in writing (which may be by email as provided in the notice provisions herein), (i) when any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement shall become effective or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus shall have been filed, (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein or for additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes or of any examination pursuant to Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act concerning the Registration Statement and (v) if the Company becomes the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the Securities Act in connection with the offering of the Securities. The Company will effect all filings required under Rule 424(b), in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order, prevention or suspension and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof as soon as practicable. The Company shall pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) under the Securities Act Regulations without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) under the Securities Act Regulations (including, if applicable, by updating the “Calculation of Filing Fee” table in accordance with Rule 456(b)(1)(ii) either in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement as an exhibit to a prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)).

Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. The Company will comply with the Securities Act, the Securities Act Regulations, the Exchange Act and the Exchange Act Regulations so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Securities as contemplated in this Agreement and in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. If at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is (or, but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 of the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 172”), would be) required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Securities, any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters or for the Company, to (i) amend the Registration Statement in order that the Registration Statement will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) amend or supplement the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus in order that the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser or (iii) amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, in order to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Securities Act Regulations, the Company will promptly (A) give the Representative notice of such event, (B) prepare any amendment or supplement as may be necessary to correct such statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus comply with such requirements and, a reasonable amount of time prior to any proposed filing or use, furnish the Representative with copies of any such amendment or supplement and (C) file with the Commission any such amendment or supplement; provided that the Company shall not file or use any such amendment or supplement to which the Representative or counsel for the Underwriters shall object. The Company will furnish to the Underwriters such number of copies of such amendment or supplement as the Underwriters may reasonably request. The Company has given the

16


 

Representative notice of any filings made pursuant to the Exchange Act or Exchange Act Regulations within 48 hours prior to the Applicable Time; the Company will give the Representative notice of its intention to make any such filing from the Applicable Time to the Closing Time and will furnish the Representative with copies of any such documents a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Representative or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably object.
(c)
Delivery of Registration Statements. The Company has furnished or will deliver to the Representative and counsel for the Underwriters, if requested, without charge, signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) and signed copies of all consents and certificates of experts, and will also deliver to the Representative, if requested, without charge, a conformed copy of the Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment thereto (without exhibits) for each of the Underwriters. The copies of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S‑T.
(d)
Delivery of Prospectuses. The Company has delivered to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of each preliminary prospectus as such Underwriter reasonably requested, and the Company hereby consents to the use of such copies for purposes permitted by the Securities Act. The Company will furnish to each Underwriter, without charge, during the period when a prospectus relating to the Securities is (or, but for the exception afforded by Rule 172, would be) required to be delivered under the Securities Act, such number of copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) as such Underwriter may reasonably request. The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S‑T.
(e)
Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts, in cooperation with the Underwriters, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions (domestic or foreign) as the Representative may designate and to maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required to complete the distribution of the Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.
(f)
Rule 158. The Company will timely file such reports pursuant to the Exchange Act as are necessary in order to make generally available to its securityholders as soon as practicable an earnings statement for the purposes of, and to provide to the Underwriters the benefits contemplated by, the last paragraph of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

17


 

sell or register with the Commission (other than on Form S-8 or on any successor form), or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any equity securities of the Company (or any securities convertible into, exercisable for or exchangeable for equity securities of the Company), except for (A) the issuance of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, (B) the issuance of shares, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, options to purchase shares or other similar equity securities pursuant to the Company’s existing equity incentive plan, employee stock option plan or bonus plan as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, (C) the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the conversion of securities or the exercise of warrants, which securities or warrants are outstanding on the date hereof and described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, including the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants, (D) the adoption of a new equity incentive plan, and filing a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the offer and sale of securities to be issued pursuant to such new equity incentive plan, and issue securities pursuant to such new equity incentive plan (including, without limitation, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of options or other securities issued pursuant to such new equity incentive plan), provided that such new equity incentive plan satisfies the transaction requirements of General Instruction A.1 of Form S-8 under the Securities Act, (E) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the offer and sale of securities to be issued pursuant to (1) the Company’s benefit plans described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus or (2) inducement grants made pursuant to Section 711(a) of the NYSE American Company Guide, and issue securities pursuant to such benefit plans or such inducement grants, as the case may be (including, without limitation, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of options or other securities issued pursuant to such benefit plans or such inducement grants, as the case may be) (F) the issuance of Common Stock or equity securities convertible into Common Stock pursuant to that certain Investment Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2024, by and between the Company and Lantheus Alpha Therapy, LLC and (G) the issuance of Common Stock or equity securities convertible into Common Stock in connection with a transaction that includes a commercial relationship (including third-party debt, joint ventures, marketing or distribution arrangements, commercial relationships, collaboration agreements or intellectual property license agreements) or any acquisition of assets or not less than a majority or controlling portion of the equity of another entity, and filing a registration statement under the Securities Act to register such shares for resale, provided that (x) the aggregate number of securities issued pursuant to this clause ‎(G) shall not represent more than 5.0% of the total number of then-outstanding Common Stock and (y) the recipient of any such securities issued pursuant to this clause ‎(G) during the Lock-Up Period shall enter into an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not sell Common Stock pursuant to the At Market Issuance Sales Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2023, by and among the Company, Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., B. Riley Securities, Inc. and JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC, during the Lock-Up Period.
(j)
Reporting Requirements. The Company, during the period when a Prospectus relating to the Securities is (or, but for the exception afforded by Rule 172, would be) required to be delivered under the Securities Act, will file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act within the time periods required by the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Regulations.
(k)
Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representative, it will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” or a portion thereof, required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; provided that the Representative will be deemed to have consented to the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses listed on Schedule B-2 hereto and any “road show that is a written communication” within the meaning of Rule 433(d)(8)(i) that has been reviewed by the Representative. The Company represents that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each such free writing prospectus consented to, or deemed consented to, by the Representative as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433,

18


 

and that it has complied and will comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 433 with respect thereto, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, which has not been superseded or modified, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify the Representative and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to notify the Representative of any statements or omissions in the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus prepared or authorized by the Company made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.
(l)
Testing-the-Waters Materials. If at any time following the distribution of any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify the Representative and, if so determined by the Company in its reasonable judgment, will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication to eliminate or correct such untrue statement or omission; provided, however, that this covenant shall not apply to any statements or omissions in a Written Testing-the-Waters Communication prepared or authorized by the Company made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.
(m)
Warrant Shares Reserved. The Company does not currently have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to allow the exercise of all of the Pre-Funded Warrants. Upon stockholder approval effecting a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 1:10 and thereby allowing for the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants or such other proposal increasing the authorized shares of the Company (the “Stockholder Approval”) and the filing and effectiveness of a charter amendment evidencing the same (the “Charter Amendment”), the Company shall, at all times thereafter while any Pre-Funded Warrants are outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of such Pre-Funded Warrants, the number of Warrant Shares that are initially issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of the then-outstanding Pre-Funded Warrants.
(n)
Stockholder Meeting. The Company shall use its best efforts to hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval no later than May 31, 2024 (the “Stockholder Approval Deadline”). The Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the Stockholder Approval and shall cause the Board of Directors of the Company to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such matter. If, despite the Company’s best efforts, Stockholder Approval is not effected on or prior to the Stockholder Approval Deadline, the Company shall cause an additional stockholder meeting to be held every seventy-five (75) days thereafter until such Stockholder Approval is obtained. Once Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company shall file the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware evidencing such Stockholder Approval within thirty (30) days of obtaining such Stockholder Approval.

SECTION 6.
Indemnification.
(a)
Indemnification of Underwriters. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act (each, an “Affiliate”)), its selling agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:
(i)
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included (A) in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or (B) in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities (“Marketing Materials”), including any roadshow or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically), or the omission or alleged omission in any preliminary prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, Prospectus or in any Marketing Materials of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

22


 

(ii)
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section ‎6(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company;
(iii)
against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by BofA), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under ‎(i) or ‎(ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, the General Disclosure Package, any preliminary prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

(b)
Indemnification of Company, Directors and Officers. Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection ‎(a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, the General Disclosure Package, any preliminary prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.
(c)
Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section ‎6(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by BofA, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section ‎6(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section ‎6 or Section ‎7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each

23


 

indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d)
Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section ‎6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
(e)
Reserved.
SECTION 7.
Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section ‎6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, on the other hand, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus.

The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section ‎7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section ‎7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section ‎7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

24


 

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section ‎7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section ‎7, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each Underwriter’s Affiliates and selling agents shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

(i)
if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the number of Securities to be purchased on such date, each of the non‑defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non‑defaulting Underwriters, or
(ii)
if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the number of Securities to be purchased on such date, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non‑defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the (i) Representative or (ii) the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

Warrant No. [•]

Number of Shares: [•]
(subject to adjustment)

Original Issue Date: [•], 2024

Perspective Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [•] or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company up to a total of [•] shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company (each such share, a “Warrant Share” and all such shares, the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price per share equal to $0.001 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section 9 herein, the “Exercise Price”), upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”) at any time and from time to time on or after the date of the filing and effectiveness of a charter amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Charter Amendment”) evidencing the Stockholder Approval (as defined in Section 8) (the “Exercise Date”), subject to the following terms and conditions:

1.
Definitions. For purposes of this Warrant, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
(a)
“Affiliate” means any Person directly or indirectly controlled by, controlling or under common control with, a Holder, but only for so long as such control shall continue. For purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, “controlled by”, “controlling” and “under common control with”) means, with respect to a Person, possession, direct or indirect, of (i) the power to direct or cause direction of the management and policies of such Person (whether through ownership of securities or partnership or other ownership interests, by contract or otherwise), or (ii) at least 50% of the voting securities (whether directly or pursuant to any option, warrant or other similar arrangement) or other comparable equity interests.
(b)
Commission” means the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
(c)
Closing Sale Price” means, for any security as of any date, the last trade price for such security on the Principal Trading Market for such security, as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or, if such Principal Trading Market begins to operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the last trade price, then the last trade price of such security prior to 4:00 P.M., New York City time, as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or if such security is not listed for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange on the relevant Trading Day, then the Closing Sale Price for such security will be the average of the mid-point of the

 


 

last bid and last ask prices per share for such security in the over-the-counter market on the relevant Trading Day as reported by OTC Markets Group or similar organization. If the Closing Sale Price cannot be calculated for a security on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Sale Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined in good faith by the Company and the Holder. If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall use its good faith judgment, in reliance on an opinion of a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Company (at its sole cost and expense), to determine the fair market value. The Board of Directors’ determination shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during the applicable calculation period.
(d)
Original Issue Date” means [•], 2024.
(e)
Principal Trading Market” means the U.S. national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is primarily listed on and quoted for trading, which, as of the Original Issue Date, shall be the NYSE American.

Registration Statement” means the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-279692), which became effective upon filing on May 24, 2024.
(g)
Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(h)
Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period for equity trades effected by U.S. broker-dealers, expressed in a number of Trading Days, as in effect on the applicable date.
(i)
Trading Day” means any weekday on which the Principal Trading Market is normally open for trading.
(j)
Transfer Agent” means Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the Company’s transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock, and any successor appointed in such capacity.
2.
Issuance of Securities; Registration of Warrants. This Warrant, as initially issued by the Company, is offered and sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. As of the Original Issue Date, the Warrant Shares are issuable under the Registration Statement. Accordingly, this Warrant is not, and upon any exercise of this Warrant the Warrant Shares thereupon issued will not be, “restricted securities” under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company shall register ownership of this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder (which shall include the initial Holder or, as the case may be, any assignee to which this Warrant is assigned hereunder) from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any

2

 


 

exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
3.
Registration of Transfers. Subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws, the Company shall, or will cause its Transfer Agent to, register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, and payment for all applicable transfer taxes (if any). Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a “New Warrant”) evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee, and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations in respect of the New Warrant that the Holder has in respect of this Warrant. The Company shall, or will cause its Transfer Agent to, prepare, issue and deliver at the Company’s own expense any New Warrant under this Section 3 within three (3) Trading Days of the surrender of this Warrant to the Company for transfer. Until due presentment for registration of transfer, the Company may treat the registered Holder hereof as the owner and holder for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
4.
Exercise and Duration of Warrants.
(a)
All or any part of this Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder in any manner permitted by this Warrant at any time and from time to time on or after the Exercise Date.
(b)
On or after the Exercise Date, the Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached as Schedule 1 hereto (the “Exercise Notice”), completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (which may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if so indicated in the Exercise Notice pursuant to Section 10 below), and the date on which the Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an “Exercise Date.” The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares, if any. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for the Exercise Price, was pre-funded to the Company on or before the Original Issue Date, and consequently no additional consideration (other than the Exercise Price) shall be required by to be paid by the Holder to effect any exercise of this Warrant. In the event that the aggregate Exercise Price is being paid in cash (a “Cash Exercise”), the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Exercise Notice by wire transfer within two (2) Trading Days (or, if less, the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period on the Exercise Date) following the Exercise Date (the “Exercise Price Delivery Deadline”). The Holder shall not be entitled to the

3

 


 

return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-funded exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever.
5.
Delivery of Warrant Shares.
(a)
Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following the Exercise Date (or, in the case of a Cash Exercise, if the applicable aggregate Exercise Price is not received by the Company by the Exercise Price Delivery Deadline, one (1) Trading Day after the date the applicable aggregate Exercise Price is received by the Company) (the “Warrant Share Delivery Deadline”) credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system, or if (and only if) such shares are required to be represented by certificates bearing a legend regarding restriction on transferability, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained herein, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon any exercise of this Warrant shall not be required to, and shall not be, represented by certificates bearing a legend regarding restriction on transferability (or otherwise bear or be subject to any restrictions on transfer or stop transfer instructions) if, at the time of such exercise, the Holder represents, or is deemed to represent (as provided below), that it is not an “affiliate” (as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company, and each delivery of an Exercise Notice by the Holder shall be deemed a representation by the Holder that it is then not an affiliate of the Company, unless the Holder expressly indicates otherwise in such Exercise Notice. The Holder, DTC (or its nominee) or any natural person or legal entity (each, a “Person”) so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be.
(b)
If by the Warrant Share Delivery Deadline, the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a) or fails to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled, as applicable, and if after the Warrant Share Delivery Deadline and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s sole discretion, either (1) pay in cash to the Holder an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price

4

 


 

(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased, at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate or (2) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such Warrant Shares, as applicable, and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased in the Buy-In over the product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock purchased in the Buy-In, times (B) the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date.
(c)
To the extent permitted by law and subject to Section 5(b), the Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with and subject to the terms hereof (including the limitations set forth in Section 11 below) are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance that might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Subject to Section 5(b), nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without the necessity of proving economic harm or posting bond or other security) with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. The Company agrees that monetary damages may not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of any such breach, it shall not assert or shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be inadequate.
6.
Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense (excluding any applicable stamp duties) in respect of the issuance of such shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or the Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an Affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
7.
Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon

5

 


 

cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction (in such case) and, in each case, a customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested by the Company. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.
8.
Reservation of Warrant Shares. As of the Original Issue Date, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to allow the exercise of this Warrant for shares of Common Stock. The Company covenants that it will, upon both (i) receipt of stockholder approval effectively increasing the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance and thereby allowing for a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to be reserved for the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereunder (the “Stockholder Approval”) and (ii) the filing and effectiveness of the Charter Amendment evidencing the same, and at all times thereafter while this Warrant is outstanding, reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares that are initially issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and non-assessable. The Company will take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any securities exchange or trading market upon which the Common Stock may be listed or quoted. The Company further covenants that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Holder, take any actions to increase the par value of the Common Stock at any time while this Warrant is outstanding.
9.
Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.
(a)
Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock issued and outstanding on the Original Issue Date and in accordance with the terms of such stock on the Original Issue Date or as amended, as described in the Registration Statement, that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of capital stock any additional shares of Common Stock of the Company, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and the denominator of

6

 


 

which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid on the date fixed therefor, the Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends. Any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. The provisions of this paragraph (a) shall similarly apply to actions taken by the Company analogous to those expressly provided for herein.
(b)
Pro Rata Distributions and Dividends. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holder, as the holder of this Warrant, shall be entitled to receive, and shall be paid by the Company, any dividend paid or distribution of any kind (including (i) evidences of the Company’s indebtedness, (ii) any security, (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) cash or any other asset) made to the holders of Common Stock, other than a dividend or distribution resulting in an adjustment pursuant to Section 9(a), to the same extent as if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full in a Cash Exercise (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein or elsewhere) and had held such Warrant Shares on the record date for such dividend or distribution (or, if there is no record date therefor, on the date of such dividend or distribution). Payments or distributions under this Section 9(b) shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to holders of the Common Stock. The provisions of this paragraph (b) shall similarly apply to subsequent dividends paid or distributions made analogous to those expressly provided for herein.
(c)
Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, in which the Company is not the surviving entity and in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, (ii) the Company effects any sale to another Person of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) pursuant to any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person), holders of capital stock tender shares representing more than 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company and the Company or such other Person, as applicable, accepts such tender for payment, (iv) the Company consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than the 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company (except for any such transaction in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction maintain, in substantially the same proportions, the voting power of such Person immediately after the

7

 


 

transaction), or (v) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock covered by Section 9(a) above) (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then following such Fundamental Transaction the Holder shall have the right to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant in a Cash Exercise without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein or elsewhere (the “Alternate Consideration”). The Company shall not effect any Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving parent entity or the Alternate Consideration includes securities of another Person unless (i) the Alternate Consideration is solely cash and the Company provides for the simultaneous “cashless exercise” of this Warrant pursuant to Section 10 below, or (ii) prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof, any successor to the Company or other surviving entity in the Fundamental Transaction (including any Person that becomes a parent of the Company or purchaser of assets of the Company) shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, such Alternate Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to receive, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (c) shall similarly apply to subsequent transactions analogous of a Fundamental Transaction type.
(d)
Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(e)
Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent or the nearest share, as applicable.
(f)
Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly compute such adjustment, in good faith, in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s transfer agent.

(g)
Notice of Corporate Events. If, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its Common Stock, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice of such transaction at least ten (10) days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. In addition, if while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction contemplated by Section 9(c), other than a Fundamental Transaction under clause (iii) of Section 9(c), the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice of such Fundamental Transaction at least thirty (30) days prior to the date such Fundamental Transaction is consummated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any notice or the contents thereof to be delivered by the Company to the Holder hereunder shall reasonably be deemed by the Company to constitute material, non-public information, the Company shall (on the same time frames set forth in the immediately prior sentences) offer the Holder the ability to sign a confidentiality agreement related thereto sufficient to allow the Holder to receive such notice, and the Company shall deliver such notice immediately upon execution of such confidentiality agreement. In the event Holder does not sign the confidentiality agreement, then the Company shall not deliver such notice to the Holder until the information that had constituted material non-public information has been publicly disclosed.
10.
Payment of Exercise Price. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Warrant may be exercised at any time by means of a “cashless exercise”, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares in an exchange of securities effected pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, as determined as follows:

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

“X” equals the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;

“Y” equals the total number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised;

“A” equals the Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock as of the Trading Day on the date immediately preceding the Exercise Date; and

9

 


 

“B” equals the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

In the event that the Registration Statement or another registration statement registering the issuance of Warrant Shares is, for any reason, not effective at the time of exercise of this Warrant, then the Warrant may only be exercised through a cashless exercise, as set forth in this Section 10. Except as set forth in Section 5(b) (Buy-In remedy), Section 12(b) (Default Buy-in remedy) and Section 12 (payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares), in no event will the exercise of this Warrant be settled in cash.

11.
Limitations on Exercise.
(a)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless and until the Stockholder Approval is obtained and the Charter Amendment has been filed and become effective evidencing the same, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares which, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and any Persons who are members of a Section 13(d) group with such Holder or its Affiliates to exceed [4.99/9.99]% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise. For purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership and whether a holder is a member of a Section 13(d) group shall be calculated and determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Commission, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified not in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of this Section 11(a), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the

10

 


 

Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons who are members of a Section 13(d) group with such Holder or its Affiliates shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon (x) the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) the exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and other Persons who are members of a Section 13(d) group with such Holder or its Affiliates.
(b)
This Section 11 shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that the Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9(c) of this Warrant or in order to determine the amount of any dividends or distributions that the Holder may receive as contemplated in Section 9(b) of this Warrant.
12.
Stockholder Approval.
(a)
As soon as practicable following the date hereof, the Company shall hold an annual or special meeting of stockholders (the “Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval. The Company shall use its best efforts to hold the Stockholder Meeting no later than May 31, 2024 (the “Stockholder Approval Deadline”). The Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the Stockholder Approval and shall cause the Board of Directors of the Company to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such matter. If, despite the Company’s best efforts, Stockholder Approval is not effected on or prior to the Stockholder Approval Deadline, the Company shall cause an additional stockholder meeting (each an “Additional Stockholder Meeting”) to be held every seventy-five (75) days thereafter until such Stockholder Approval is obtained. Once Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company shall file the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware evidencing such Stockholder Approval within thirty (30) days of obtaining such Stockholder Approval.
(b)
If by the date that is ten (10) days following the first Additional Stockholder Meeting following the Stockholder Approval Deadline this Warrant is not exercisable by the Holder, the Holder may elect to notify the Company of its intention to sell a number of Shares of Common Stock not to exceed the lesser of (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would be entitled receive upon exercise of the Warrant pursuant to Section 5(a) as if the Stockholder Approval were obtained and the Charter Amendment had been filed and become effective and (ii) the Maximum Percentage (the “Default Buy-in Amount”), the Holder shall be entitled to purchase (in open market transactions or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of Common Stock not in excess of the Default Buy-in Amount (the

11

 


 

Default Buy-In”), and the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder’s request pay in cash to the Holder an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any, less the exercise price) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased, at which point the aggregate number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised shall be automatically reduced on a one for one basis. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall be of no further force and effect once Stockholder Approval is obtained and the Charter Amendment is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.
13.
No Fractional Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the next whole number and the Company shall pay the Holder in cash the fair market value (based on the Closing Sale Price) for any such fractional shares.
14.
Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail prior to 5:30 P.M., New York City time, on a Trading Day so long as the sender of an e-mail has not received an automated notice of delivery failure from the proposed recipient’s computer server, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 P.M., New York City time, on any Trading Day so long as the sender of an e-mail has not received an automated notice of delivery failure from the proposed recipient’s computer server, (iii) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service specifying next business day delivery, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the Person to whom such notice is required to be given, if by hand delivery:

Miscellaneous.
(a)
No Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Warrant, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
(b)
Authorized Shares. (i) Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate or articles of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may

13

 


 

validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant. (ii) Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
(c)
Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Warrant and compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant may be assigned by the Holder. This Warrant may not be assigned by the Company without the written consent of the Holder, except to a successor in the event of a Fundamental Transaction. This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder, or their successors and assigns.
(d)
Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of the Warrants may be amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holder.

(g)
Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.
(h)
Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the Company and the Holder will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.
(i)
Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Warrant to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Warrant unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Warrant are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Warrant. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Warrant, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Warrant shall refer to this Warrant as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Warrant unless the context requires otherwise. The words “date hereof” when used in this Warrant shall refer to the date of this Warrant. The terms “or,” “any” and “either” are not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” The definitions contained in this Warrant are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” or “$” shall refer to, and all payments hereunder shall be made in, the lawful money of the United States. References to a Person are also to its successors and permitted assigns. When calculating the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or

15

 


 

step taken pursuant to this Warrant, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded (and, unless otherwise required by law, if the last day of such period is not a business day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding business day).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are acting as counsel to Perspective Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with its automatic shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 (File No. 333-279692) (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relating to the registered offering of (i) 51,515,880 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of the Company (the “Shares”) and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 1,464,252 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price equal to $0.001 per share (the “Warrant Shares” and collectively with the Shares and the Warrants, the “Securities”). All of the Securities are to be sold by the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of May 24, 2024, between the Company and the representative of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriting Agreement”), as described in the prospectus, dated May 24, 2024 (the “Base Prospectus”), which forms a part of the Registration Statement, as supplemented by the Final Prospectus Supplement, dated May 24, 2024 (the “Final Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”). This opinion letter is furnished to you at your request to enable you to fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S‑K, 17 C.F.R. § 229.601(b)(5), in connection with the Registration Statement.

For purposes of this opinion letter, we have examined copies of such agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed an appropriate basis on which to render the opinions hereinafter expressed. In our examination of the aforesaid documents, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the accuracy and completeness of all documents submitted to us, the authenticity of all original documents, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies (including pdfs). In rendering this opinion, we have assumed that prior to the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Warrants, the Company will obtain stockholder approval to, and following obtaining such stockholder approval, the Company will, amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to (i) increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock or (ii) effect a reverse stock split to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock (the “Charter Amendment”), in each case, to allow for the issuance of the full number of Warrant Shares underlying the Warrants upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with their terms.

This opinion letter is based as to matters of law solely on the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended. We express no opinion herein as to any other statutes, rules or regulations.

Based upon, subject to and limited by the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1.
Following (i) issuance of the Shares pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and (ii) receipt by the Company of the consideration for the Shares specified in the resolutions of the Board of Directors or the Pricing Committee of the Board of Directors, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
2.
Following (i) execution and delivery by the Company of the Warrants pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and (ii) receipt by the Company of the consideration for the Warrants specified in the resolutions of the Board of Directors or the Pricing Committee of the Board of Directors, the Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company.
3.

SEATTLE, May 24, 2024 – Perspective Therapeutics, Inc. (“Perspective” or the “Company”) (NYSE AMERICAN: CATX), a radiopharmaceutical company that is pioneering advanced treatment applications for cancers throughout the body, today announced the pricing of an underwritten offering of 51,515,880 shares of its common stock at an offering price of $1.51 per share and, to certain investors in lieu of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase 1,464,252 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.509 per pre-funded warrant. The aggregate gross proceeds from this offering are expected to be approximately $80 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by Perspective in connection with the offering. The purchase price per share of each pre-funded warrant represents the per share offering price for the common stock, minus the $0.001 per share exercise price of such pre-funded warrant. The offering is expected to close on or about May 29, 2024, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. All of the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to be sold in the offering are being sold by Perspective.

 

BofA Securities, Inc., Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering and B. Riley Securities, Inc. is acting as a co-manager for the offering.

A portion of the net proceeds may also be used to acquire, license or invest in complementary products, technologies, intellectual property or businesses, although Perspective has no present commitments or agreements to do so.

About Perspective Therapeutics, Inc.
