SINTX Technologies, Inc.
September 26, 2022
To Brokers, Dealers, Banks and Other Nominees:
This letter is being distributed by SINTX Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) to brokers, dealers, banks and other nominees in connection with the rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) by the Company to subscribe for and purchase units, pursuant to non-transferable subscription rights distributed to all holders of record of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), Series B Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series B Preferred”), Series C Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Series C Preferred”), or to holders of certain outstanding common stock warrants (the “Participating Warrants”) as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 23, 2022, the record date. Each unit entitles the holder to one share of the Company’s Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, and common stock warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to $1,000 divided by a price equal to 90% of the lowest closing price for a share of the Company’s common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market during the five (5) trading days prior to and including October 10, 2022. Each warrant will be exercisable for one share of Common Stock. The subscription rights and units are described in the prospectus dated September 23, 2022 (a copy of which accompanies this notice) (the “Prospectus”).
Pursuant to the Rights Offering, the Company is issuing subscription rights to subscribe for up to 10,000 units on the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Prospectus, at a subscription price of $1,000 per unit.
The subscription rights may be exercised at any time during the subscription period, which commences on September 26, 2022 and ends at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 10, 2022, the expiration date, unless extended in the sole discretion of the Company for up to an additional 45 days (the “Expiration Date”).
As described in the Prospectus, each beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, or of Participating Warrants is entitled to one subscription right for every share of Common Stock owned or deemed owned by such beneficial owner on the record date, evidenced by non-transferable subscription rights certificates registered in the record holder’s name or its nominee. Each subscription right entitles holder to purchase one unit at the subscription price, which we refer to as the basic subscription right. Unless we otherwise agree in writing, a person or entity, together with related persons or entities, may not exercise subscription rights (including over-subscription privileges) to purchase units that, when aggregated with their existing ownership, would result in such person or entity, together with any related persons or entities, owning in excess of 19.99% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock following the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Rights Offering.
Based on 24,727,495 shares of common stock outstanding as of August 31, 2022, 19,306 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of 26 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 33,753 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of 50 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and 1,115,729 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of Participating Warrants, the Company would grant subscription rights to acquire 25,896,283 units but will only accept subscriptions for 10,000 units. Accordingly, sufficient units may not be available to honor your subscription in full. If exercises of basic subscription rights exceed the number of units available in the rights offering, we will allocate the available units pro-rata among the record holders exercising the basic subscription rights in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock each of those record holders owned or are deemed to hold on the record date, relative to the number of shares owned or deemed to be held on the record date by all record holders exercising the basic subscription right. If this pro-rata allocation results in any record holders receiving a greater number of units than the record holder subscribed for pursuant to the exercise of the basic subscription rights, then such record holder will be allocated only that number of units for which the record holder subscribed, and the remaining units will be allocated among all other record holders exercising their basic subscription rights on the same pro rata basis described above. The proration process will be repeated until all units have been allocated. If for any reason the amount of units allocated to you is less than you have subscribed for, then the excess funds held by the subscription agent on your behalf will be returned to you, without interest, as soon as practicable after the rights offering has expired and all prorating calculations and reductions contemplated by the terms of the rights offering have been effected, and we will have no further obligations to you.
Holders who fully exercise their basic subscription right will be entitled to subscribe for additional units that remain unsubscribed as a result of any unexercised basic subscription right (the “Over-Subscription Privilege”). Subject to stock ownership limitations described in the prospectus, if sufficient units are available, all Over-Subscription Privilege requests will be honored in full. If Over-Subscription Privilege requests for units exceed the remaining units available, the remaining units will be allocated pro-rata among holders who over-subscribe based on the number of shares of Common Stock held or underlying the Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, or Participating Warrants held as of the record date by all holders exercising the Over-Subscription Privilege. If this pro rata allocation results in any holder receiving a greater number of units than the holder subscribed for, then such holder will be allocated only the number of units for which the holder oversubscribed, and the remaining units will be allocated among all holders exercising the Over-Subscription Privilege on the same pro rata basis described above. The proration process will be repeated until all units have been allocated.
The Company will not issue fractional shares or warrants. Fractional shares or warrants resulting from the exercise of the basic subscription rights and the Over-Subscription Privileges will be eliminated by rounding down to the nearest whole unit. Any excess subscription payment received by the subscription agent will be returned, without interest or penalty, within 10 business days following the expiration of the Rights Offering.
The Company is asking persons who hold shares of the Company’s Common Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, or Participating Warrants beneficially, and who have received the subscription rights distributable with respect to those securities through a broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee, to contact the appropriate institution or nominee and request it to effect the transactions for them.
If you exercise subscription rights on behalf of beneficial owners, you will be required to certify to the subscription agent and the Company, in connection with such exercise, as to the aggregate number of subscription rights that have been exercised pursuant to the basic subscription right, whether the basic subscription rights of each beneficial owner of subscription rights on whose behalf you are acting has been exercised in full, and the number of units being subscribed for pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege by each beneficial owner of subscription rights on whose behalf you are acting.
The Company is asking you to contact your clients for whom you hold shares of Common Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, or Participating Warrants registered in your name or the name of your nominee to obtain instruction with respect to the subscription rights.
