Nexcella Absorption

 

Nexcella, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Immix Biopharma, Inc, was merged with and into the Company in May 2024.

 

 

Founders Agreement

 

Effective December 8, 2022, the Company entered into a Founders Agreement with Nexcella (the “Nexcella Founders Agreement”).

 

The Nexcella Founders Agreement provided that prior to a Qualified IPO (as defined in Nexcella’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Nexcella COI”)) or Qualified Change in Control (as defined in the Nexcella COI), the Company shall provide funds to Nexcella as requested by Nexcella, in good faith, to be evidenced by a senior unsecured promissory note. In exchange for the time and capital expended in the formation of Nexcella and the identification of specific assets, the acquisition of which benefit Nexcella, on December 21, 2022, the Company loaned Nexcella approximately $2.1 million, evidenced by a senior unsecured promissory note, representing the up-front fee required to acquire Nexcella’s license agreement with Hadasit Medical Research Services & Development, Ltd. (“HADASIT”) and BIRAD Research and Development Company Ltd. (“BIRAD”), and for use as working capital for its research and development activities. The note, which had a maturity date of January 31, 2030, accrued interest at a rate of 7.875% per annum and was convertible into shares of common stock of Nexcella at a conversion price of $2.00 per share, subject to adjustment; provided, however, that such note shall automatically convert into shares of Nexcella common stock immediately prior to certain conversion triggers set forth in the note. Nexcella may not prepay the note without the Company’s prior written consent. The note and accrued interest were converted in full prior to the Nexcella Absorption. The Nexcella Founders Agreement had a term of 15 years, which, upon expiration, would automatically renew for successive one-year periods unless terminated by the Company upon notice at least six months prior to the end of the term or upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Nexcella Founders Agreement). In connection with the Nexcella Founders Agreement, the Company was issued 250,000 shares of Nexcella’s Class A Preferred Stock, 1,000,000 shares of Nexcella’s Class A Common Stock, and 5,000,000 shares of Nexcella’s common stock. The Class A Preferred Stock was identical to the common stock other than as to conversion rights, the PIK Dividend right (as defined below) and voting rights.

 

Each share of Class A Preferred Stock was convertible, at the Company’s option, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Nexcella’s common stock, subject to certain adjustments. As a holder of Nexcella’s Class A Preferred Stock, the Company received on each March 13 (each a “PIK Dividend Payment Date”) until the date all outstanding Class A Preferred Stock was converted into Nexcella’s common stock or redeemed (and the purchase price is paid in full), pro rata per share dividends paid in additional fully paid and nonassessable shares of Nexcella common stock (“PIK Dividends”) such that the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued pursuant to such PIK Dividend was equal to 2.5% of Nexcella’s fully-diluted outstanding capitalization on the date that was one business day prior to any PIK Dividend Payment Date. In addition, as a holder of Class A Preferred Stock, the Company was entitled to cast for each share of Class A Preferred Stock held as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on matters presented to the stockholders of Nexcella, the number of votes that was equal to 1.1 times a fraction, the numerator of which was the sum of (A) the shares of outstanding Nexcella common stock and (B) the whole shares of Nexcella common stock into which the shares of outstanding Nexcella Class A Common Stock and the Class A Preferred Stock were convertible and the denominator of which was the number of shares of outstanding Nexcella Class A Preferred Stock.

 

Each share of Class A Common Stock was convertible, at the Company’s option, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Nexcella’s common stock, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, upon a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Nexcella COI) or Qualified Change in Control (as defined in the Nexcella COI), each share of Class A Common Stock would automatically convert into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Nexcella’s common stock; provided however, if at that time, the Class A Common Stock was not then convertible into a number of shares of Nexcella common stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon the conversion of the Class A Common Stock) that have a value of: (a) in the case of a Qualified IPO, at least $5,000,000 based on the initial offering price in such initial public offering, or (b) in the case of a Qualified Change in Control, at least $5,000,000 in cash or at least $5,000,000 of equity based on the implied value of a share of Nexcella common stock resulting from the price paid upon the consummation of such Qualified Change of Control, the Class A Common Stock would automatically convert into such number of shares of Nexcella common stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon the conversion of the Class A Common Stock) that have a value of $5,000,000 based on the initial offering price in such initial public offering or the implied value of a share of Nexcella common stock resulting from the price paid upon the consummation of such Qualified Change of Control (or if such Qualified Change of Control results in the Class A Shares being exchanged solely for cash, then $5,000,000 in cash). The Company was entitled to cast such number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Nexcella common stock into which the Company’s Class A Common Stock was convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on matters presented to the stockholders of Nexcella.

 

 

In addition to the foregoing, the Company was entitled to one vote for each share of Nexcella common stock held by it. Except as provided by law or by the Nexcella COI, holders of Nexcella Class A Common Stock and Class A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Nexcella common stock, as a single class.

 

As additional consideration under the Nexcella Founders Agreement, Nexcella also agreed to: (i) pay an equity fee in shares of common stock, payable within five business days of the closing of any equity or debt financing for Nexcella or any of its respective subsidiaries that occurs after the effective date of the Nexcella Founders Agreement and ending on the date when the Company no longer has majority voting control in Nexcella’s voting equity, equal to 2.5% of the gross amount of any such equity or debt financing; and (ii) pay a cash fee equal to 4.5% of Nexcella’s annual Net Sales (as defined in the Nexcella Founders Agreement), payable on an annual basis, within 90 days of the end of each calendar year. In the event of a Change of Control, Nexcella agreed to pay a one-time change in control fee equal to five times the product of (A) Net Sales for the 12 months immediately preceding the Change of Control and (B) 4.5%.

 

Management Services Agreement

 

Effective as of December 8, 2022, the Company entered into a Management Services Agreement (the “Nexcella MSA”) with Nexcella. Pursuant to the terms of the Nexcella MSA, the Company rendered management, advisory and consulting services to Nexcella. Services provided under the Nexcella MSA may include, without limitation, (i) advice and assistance concerning any and all aspects of Nexcella’s operations, clinical trials, financial planning and strategic transactions and financings and (ii) conducting relations on behalf of Nexcella with accountants, attorneys, financial advisors and other professionals (collectively, the “Services”). At the request of the Company, Nexcella utilized clinical research services, medical education, communication and marketing services and investor relations/public relation services of companies or individuals designated by the Company, provided those services are offered at market prices. In consideration for the Services, Nexcella paid the Company an annual base management and consulting fee of $500,000 (the “Annual Consulting Fee”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the first Annual Consulting Fee payment was not due until the first business day of the calendar quarter immediately following the completion of the first equity financing for Nexcella that was in excess of $10 million in gross proceeds, which did not occur. Actual and direct out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in performing the Services were reimbursed to the Company by Nexcella.

 

The Nexcella MSA was terminated on May 20, 2024 in connection with the Nexcella Absorption. In addition, as a result of the Nexcella Absorption, the Class A Preferred Stock, Class A Common Stock, and the Founders Agreement cease to exist.
