Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 22, 2021, PolarityTE, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a letter agreement (the “Agreement”) with the purchaser named therein (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Purchaser, in a previously disclosed registered direct offering (the “Offering”), common warrants to purchase up to 8,016,033 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price of $0.125 per warrant (the “Warrants”), in exchange for the agreement of the Purchaser to exercise in full its existing common warrants to purchase up to 10,688,043 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.624 per share (the “Existing Warrants”).

Each Warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share. The Warrants are immediately exercisable and will expire five years from the date of issuance. A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise, which percentage may be changed at the holder’s election to a lower percentage at any time or to a higher percentage not to exceed 9.99% upon 61 days’ notice to the Company.

The Existing Warrants were exercise on January 22, 2021, and closing of the Offering occurred on January 25, 2021. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $7.67 million from the exercise of the Existing Warrants and gross proceeds of approximately $1.0 million from the sale of the Warrants, before deducting placement agent fees and related offering expenses.

As previously disclosed, the Company engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with the Offering pursuant to a letter agreement, dated November 6, 2020, as amended on December 16, 2020 and modified on January 21, 2021. Under that agreement, the Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Offering and a cash fee upon exercise of the Warrants equal to 7% of the aggregate exercise price of the Warrants if and when exercised by the holder. The Company also issued to designees of the Placement Agent warrants to purchase up to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Warrants sold in the Offering (or warrants to purchase up to 480,962 shares of Common Stock) (the “Placement Agent Warrants”). The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Warrants, except that the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of five-years from the commencement of the sales of the Warrants.

The foregoing descriptions of the Agreement, the Warrants, and the Placement Agent Warrants are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the forms of such documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1, and 4.2 to this report, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.

The Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants were offered pursuant to a prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), dated January 22, 2021, and an accompanying prospectus dated February 22, 2019, pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-229584) that has been filed with and declared effective by the Commission. A copy of the opinion of King & Spalding LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the securities offered under the Agreement and the Placement Agent Warrants is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this report.

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
