Microbot Medical Announces Exercise of Outstanding Preferred Investment Options for $2.73 Million in Gross Proceeds Priced At-the-Market Under Nasdaq Rules

BRAINTREE, Mass., Dec. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Microbot Medical Inc. (Nasdaq: MBOT), developer of the innovative LIBERTY® Endovascular Robotic Surgical System, today announced the entry into a definitive agreement for the immediate exercise of certain outstanding preferred investment options to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,685,682 shares of common stock, having exercise prices ranging from $2.075 to $3.19 per share, issued by Microbot in October 2022 and June 2023, at a reduced exercise price of $1.62 per share. The shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the preferred investment options are registered pursuant to an effective resale registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-273207). The closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about January 3, 2024, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.

In consideration for the immediate exercise of the preferred investment options for cash, Microbot will issue new unregistered series E preferred investment options to purchase up to 1,685,682 shares of common stock. The new series E preferred investment options will have an exercise price of $1.50 per share, will be exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term equal to five and one-half years from the date of issuance.

The gross proceeds to the Company from the exercise of the preferred investment options are expected to be approximately $2.73 million, prior to deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for the continued development, commercialization and regulatory activities for the Company’s LIBERTY® Robotic System, expansion and development of additional applications derived from the Company’s existing IP portfolio, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The new series E preferred investment options described above were offered in a private placement pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and, along with the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise, have not been registered under the 1933 Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. Microbot has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the new series E preferred investment options.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in this offering, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
