Offerings of Common Stock
Public Offering

In July 2024, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with an underwriter, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the underwriter in a public offering (the "July 2024 Public Offering") 30.4 million shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a public offering price of $1.15 per share (the "Offering Price"). Pursuant to the terms of the underwriting agreement, the Company granted to the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 4,565,217 shares of common stock at the offering price (the "Option Shares") at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The offering closed in August 2024. The net proceeds to the Company from the offering, excluding any exercise by the underwriter of its 30-day option to purchase any of the option shares, were $32.3 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid to the Company. The July 2024 Public Offering was made pursuant to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3, which was previously filed with the SEC and became effective on May 1, 2024. In August 2024, the underwriter exercised their option to purchase 2,282,608 Option Shares at the Offering Price. The net proceeds to the Company from the exercise of the underwriter's option were $2.4 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid to the Company.

Increase in Capital Stock

In July 2024, the Company's certificate of incorporation was amended to increase the total number of shares of all classes of stock the Company has authority to issue to four hundred million shares. This consists of three hundred ninety million shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), and ten million shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("the Preferred Stock").
COVAXIN Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement
On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") with Bharat Biotech International Limited ("Bharat Biotech"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell 0.1 million shares of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series B Convertible Preferred Stock"), at a price per share equal to $109.60, to Bharat Biotech. On March 18, 2021, the Company issued the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as an advance payment of $6.0 million for the supply of COVAXIN, a monovalent vaccine, to be provided by Bharat Biotech pursuant to a Development and Commercial Supply Agreement (the "Supply Agreement").
Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible, at the option of Bharat Biotech, into 10 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Conversion Ratio") only after (i) the Company received stockholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock under its Sixth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which the Company received in April 2021, and (ii) the Company's receipt of shipments by Bharat Biotech of the first 10.0 million doses of COVAXIN manufactured by Bharat Biotech pursuant to the Supply Agreement, and further on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The conversion rate of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was subject to adjustment in the event of a stock
dividend, stock split, reclassification, or similar event with respect to the Company's common stock. In May 2024, Bharat Biotech and the Company entered into a Stock Forfeiture Agreement whereby the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were redeemed."
