2024 Registered Offering

Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the company raised $4.0 million gross proceeds from a fund raise. (see Note 15 Subsequent Events for more information)

2023 Registered Offering

On February 10, 2023, the Company closed on a public offering of 2,150,000 units, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock, or one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of its common stock, one Class C Warrant to purchase one share of common stock, and one half of one Class D Warrant with each whole Class D Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of common stock. Each unit was sold at a public offering price of $5.60. The Class C and Class D Warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $5.60 per share. The Class C and Class D warrants each have a cashless exercise provision entitling the holders to surrender one Class C Warrant and receive 0.4 shares of common stock and on the surrender of one Class D Warrant the holder is entitled to receive 0.8 shares of common stock. The Class C Warrants expire five years from the date of issuance and the Class D Warrants expire three years from the date of issuance. The shares of common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) and accompanying warrants were only purchasable together in this offering but were issued separately and were immediately separable upon issuance. In addition, the company issued a total of 86,000 common stock warrants to the placement agent, Maxim Group, and the Company’s financial advisor, Ascendiant Capital. Gross proceeds, before deducting offering expenses, totaled approximately $12.0 million. Of the $12.0 million of gross proceeds, approximately $5.4 million were allocated to common stock and prefunded warrants ($4.8 million net of offering costs) and approximately $6.7 million were allocated to derivative liabilities (with approximately $0.7 million of cash offering costs and $0.1 million of agent warrant offering costs recorded as derivative expense).

2022 Rights Offering

On October 17, 2022, the Company completed a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) to holders of the Company’s Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares, and warrants issued March 6, 2018, May 8, 2018, May 14, 2018, and February 6, 2020 (collectively, the “Security Holders”) for subscriptions of 4,656 rights resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $4.7 million. Under the Rights Offering, the Company distributed to the Security Holders, at no charge, one non-transferable subscription right for each share of common stock, share of Series B Preferred Stock, share of Series C Preferred Stock, and each participating warrant (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) held on the record date, September 23, 2022. Each right entitled the holder to purchase one unit, at a subscription price of $1,000 per unit, consisting of one share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock with a face value of $1,000 (and immediately convertible into shares of SINTX’s common stock at a conversion price equal to $15.102 (the “Conversion Price”)), and 66 common stock purchase warrants expiring five years from the date of issuance, which we refer to as the Class A Warrants, and (iii) 66 common stock purchase warrants expiring three years from the date of issuance, which we refer to as the Class B Warrants and, together with the Class A Warrants, the Warrants with each warrant exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $15.102 per share.

2021 Equity Distribution Agreement

On February 25, 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”), which was subsequently amended on October 12, 2023 (as amended, the “2021 Distribution Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company may sell from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1.1 million through Maxim, as agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2021 Distribution Agreement, as amended, Maxim will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the shares from time to time, based on our instructions. Under the 2021 Distribution Agreement, Maxim may sell the Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at-the-market” offering (the “ATM”) as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including, without limitation, sales made directly on the Nasdaq Capital Market. We have no obligation to sell any shares under the ATM and may at any time suspend offers under the 2021 Distribution Agreement. The Offering will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of shares having an aggregate offering price of $15.0 million, (ii) the termination by either Maxim or the Company upon the provision of fifteen (15) days written notice, or (iii) February 25, 2025. Under the terms of the 2021 Distribution Agreement, Maxim will be entitled to a transaction fee at a fixed rate of 2.0% of the gross sales price of Shares sold under the 2021 Distribution Agreement. The Company will also reimburse Maxim for certain expenses incurred in connection with the 2021 Distribution Agreement and agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to Maxim with respect to certain liabilities under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As of March 1, 2024, there have been 2,471,949 shares of common stock sold under the 2021 Distribution Agreement for gross proceeds of $1,030,519. As a result, there is only approximately $70,000 more that could be raised under the 2021 Distribution Agreement. Because the company’s public float is less than $75 million, we may not sell securities over a 12-month period in an amount greater than one-third of our public float. In connection with the February 2024 offering, the Company agreed to not make any sales of securities under the ATM for a period of six months from the date of closing the offering, February 2, 2024, until August 2, 2024 (see Note 15).
