Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 18, 2025, Tivic Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mast Hill Fund, L.P. (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company will have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Investor, and the Investor will have the obligation to purchase from the Company, up to $25,000,000 (the “Maximum Commitment Amount”) shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Put Shares”), at the Company’s sole discretion, over the next 24 months, subject to certain conditions precedent and other limitations. The Investor has covenanted not to cause or engage in any short sales with respect to the shares of the Company’s common stock during the term of the agreement.
Unless earlier terminated, the Purchase Agreement will remain in effect until the earlier of March 18, 2027 or the date on which the Investor has purchased the Maximum Commitment Amount (the “Commitment Period”). The Company has the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, subject to limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
During the Commitment Period, the Company will have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investor to make a purchase of the Put Shares by delivering written notice to the Investor (a “Put Notice”) on any trading day (the “Put Date”) to purchase a number of Put Shares pursuant to a formula set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price for the Put Shares under the Purchase Agreement will be equal to 95% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) of the Company’s common stock on the Principal Market (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) on any trading day during the pricing period, and the pricing period for each sale of Put Shares will be the 5 trading days immediately after receipt of the Put Shares by the Investor, subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Agreement.
Each Put Notice shall direct the Investor to purchase Put Shares (i) in a minimum amount not less than $50,000.00 and (ii) in a maximum amount up to $500,000, provide further that the number of Put Shares in each respective Put shall not exceed 100% of the average trading volume of the Company’s common stock during the 5 trading days immediately preceding the date of the Put Notice. The Investor’s obligation to purchase Put Shares is subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership blocker. Additionally, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company may not sell or issue to the Investor more than 19.99% of the number of shares of Company common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to execution of the Purchase Agreement unless and until the Company obtains stockholder approval to issue additional shares, in accordance with applicable Nasdaq rules.
As consideration for the Investor’s commitment to purchase shares of Company common stock under the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued the Investor 29,800 restricted shares of common stock following the execution of the Purchase Agreement (the “Commitment Shares”).
Craft Capital Management LLC (“Craft”) acted as the Company’s placement agent in connection with this transaction. As compensation for such services, the Company will pay Craft a commission of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of Put Shares under the Purchase Agreement.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Investor also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to, within forty-five (45) calendar days from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an initial registration statement covering (i) all of the Put Shares issuable under the Purchase Agreement the Commitment Shares (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) so as to permit the resale of such securities by the Investor. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the Commission within ninety (90) calendar days from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement. The Company shall keep the registration statement effective, including but not limited to pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act and available for the resale by the Investor of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby at all times until the date on which the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable Securities and the Maximum Commitment Amount has been drawn down by the Company.
The Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement contain customary representations, warranties and agreements, as well as customary conditions to the Investor’s obligation to purchase the Put Shares.
The foregoing summary of the terms of the Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
Actual sales of shares of Company common stock, if any, to the Investor under the Purchase Agreement will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock and determinations by the Company as to the appropriate sources of funding for the Company and its operations. The net proceeds to the Company from sales of our common stock to the Investor under the Purchase Agreement, if any, will depend on the frequency and prices at which the Company sells shares to the Investor under the Purchase Agreement.
