Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 19, 2019, AquaBounty Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, as the representative of the underwriters named therein
(collectively, the "Underwriters"), relating to the public offering (the "Offering") of 3,345,282 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at an offering price of $2.25 per share of Common Stock.
The Offering is expected to close on March 21, 2019, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company has also granted the Underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 501,792 additional shares of Common Stock at the Offering Price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds to the Company are expected to be approximately $6.7 million, assuming no exercise of the Underwriter's overallotment option and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and payment of other estimated expenses associated with the Offering that are payable by the Company.
The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-224184), which was initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 6, 2018, subsequently amended on April 23, 2018, and declared effective by the Commission on April 27, 2018.
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements by the Company; customary conditions to closing; indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriter, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; other obligations of the parties; and termination provisions. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, issue, or sell any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock for a period of ninety days following the Offering without the prior written consent of the Underwriter. The foregoing is only a brief description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement that is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
