Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Digital Ally, Inc. (the “Company”) previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 4, 2018, that it completed a private placement of $6.05 million in principal amount of Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes” and each a “Note”) and warrants (the “Warrants” and each a “Warrant”) to purchase 806,667 shares of common stock of the Company to institutional investors, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement between the Company and the purchasers’ signatory thereto (the “Holders”).
On May 11, 2018, the Company closed another tranche with an institutional investor with respect to a Note with a principal amount of $825,000 and a Warrant to purchase 110,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The foregoing tranche resulted in gross proceeds of $750,000 before placement agent’s fees and other expenses associated with the transaction.
The sale and the issuance of the Notes and Warrants were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act (“Regulation D”). We made this determination based on the representations of each investor which included, in pertinent part, that each such investor was (a) an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D or (b) a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act and upon such further representations from each investor that (i) such investor is acquiring the Notes and Warrants for its own account for investment and not for the account of any other person and not with a view to or for distribution or resale in connection with any distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act, (ii) such investor agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer the Notes and Warrants unless they are registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or an exemption or exemptions from such registration are available, (iii) such investor has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes and Warrants, (iv) such investor had access to all of our documents, records, and books pertaining to the investment and was provided the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers regarding the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information which we possessed or were able to acquire without unreasonable effort and expense, and (v) such investor is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Notes and Warrants and could afford the complete loss of such investment. In addition, there was no general solicitation or advertising for the Notes and Warrants issued in reliance upon Regulation D.
