IsoRay, Inc. 

11,000,000 Shares of Common Stock

 

 

We are offering 11,000,000 shares of our common stock to certain institutional and accredited investors pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The common stock is being offered at a per share purchase price of $0.75 per share. In a concurrent private placement, we are also selling to the purchasers of common stock offered by this prospectus supplement warrants to purchase up to 5,500,000 shares of our common stock, which represent fifty percent (50%) of the shares of our common stock being purchased in this offering (the Warrants). The Warrants and the shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (the Warrant Shares) are being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder, and they are not being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The Warrants being issued in the concurrent private placement are not listed on any securities exchange, and we do not expect to list the Warrants.

 

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American stock exchange under the symbol “ISR.” On July 6, 2018, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the NYSE American stock exchange was $0.44 per share.

 

As of July 6, 2018, a date within 60 days of the date of this prospectus supplement, the aggregate market value of our outstanding shares of common stock held by non-affiliates, or public float, was $24,785,705 based on 56,331,147 outstanding shares of common stock, of which 56,139,442 shares are held by non-affiliates, and a per share price of $0.44, based on the last sale price of our common stock on July 6, 2018. One-third of our public float, calculated in accordance with Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 as of May 17, 2018, is equal to $10,292,231. During the 12 calendar months prior to and including the date of this prospectus supplement, we have sold $489,853 of common stock pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3. In no event will we sell securities registered on this registration statement in a public primary offering with a value exceeding more than one-third of our public float in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75.0 million pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3.

This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus include or incorporate by reference information about the shares of common stock we are offering as well as information regarding our business and detailed financial data. After you read this summary, you should read this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in their entirety, including the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, especially the section entitled “Risk Factors.” If you invest in our securities, you are assuming a high degree of risk.

 

Unless the context requires otherwise, in this prospectus, the terms “IsoRay,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to IsoRay, Inc. and its operating subsidiary IsoRay Medical, Inc., and, to the extent applicable, its non-operating subsidiary, IsoRay International LLC.

 

Business Overview

 

In 2003, IsoRay obtained clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the use of Cesium-131 (Cs-131) radioisotope in the treatment of all malignant tumors. As of the date of this report, such applications include prostate cancer, brain cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, gynecological cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, ocular melanoma and pancreatic cancer. The brachytherapy seed form (a sealed source) of Cs-131 may be used in surface, interstitial and intra-cavity applications for tumors with known radio-sensitivity. Management believes the combination of a short half-life and relatively high-energy of Cs-131 will allow it to become a leader in the brachytherapy market, and Cs-131 represents the first major advancement in brachytherapy technology in approximately 30 years with attributes that could make it the long-term “seed of choice” for internal radiation therapy procedures.

 

Brachytherapy seeds are small devices containing a therapeutic dose of radiation used in an interstitial radiation procedure. The procedure has become one of the primary treatments for prostate cancer. The brachytherapy procedure places radioactive seeds as close as possible to (in or near) the cancerous tumor (the word “brachytherapy” is derived from Greek and means close therapy). A primary advantage of seed brachytherapy is the ability of the seeds to deliver therapeutic radiation thereby killing the cancerous tumor cells while minimizing exposure (damage) to adjacent healthy tissue. This procedure allows doctors to administer a higher dose of radiation directly to the tumor. A seed contains a radioisotope sealed within a titanium capsule. When brachytherapy is the only treatment (monotherapy) used in the prostate, approximately 70 to 120 seeds are permanently implanted in the prostate during an outpatient procedure. The number of seeds used varies based on the size of the prostate gland, the isotope used, and the activity level specified by the physician. When brachytherapy is combined with another treatment method (dual-therapy), fewer seeds are used (approximately 40 to 80) in the procedure. The isotope decays over time (half-life) and eventually the seeds become inert (typically over 6 half-lives). The seeds may be used as a primary treatment (monotherapy) or as an adjunct therapy with other treatment modalities, or as treatment for residual disease after excision of primary tumors. The number of seeds for treatment sites other than prostate vary widely (as few as 8 seeds to more than 100 seeds) depending on the type of cancer, the tumor location, the prescribed activity level and any additional type of therapy being utilized.

 

IsoRay began the production and sales of Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds in October 2004 for the treatment of prostate cancer after receiving clearance of its premarket notification (510(k)) by the Food and Drug Administration. Prostate cancer treatment represents over 83% of the business for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

In late 2014, the first report of five-year clinical outcomes for patients treated with Cs-131 brachytherapy was published in a peer-reviewed medical journal (Benoit, et al., Five Year Prostate-specific Antigen Outcomes after Caesium Prostate Brachytherapy, Clin Oncol 25 (December 2014)). In this study of 485 prostate cancer patients treated with Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds, a “biochemical relapse free” success rate of 96% was reported for low-risk patients after five years.

 

Work is ongoing to employ Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds where trends are emerging in prostate cancer treatment, including the use of Cs-131 implants in combination with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT – a form of external beam radiation) for high-risk localized prostate cancer (dual-therapy). For low-risk prostate cancer, studies are ongoing to evaluate the use of Cs-131 in “focal,” or sub-total brachytherapy of the prostate. It is hypothesized that low-risk patients using focal brachytherapy may achieve rates of prostate cancer control comparable to that of full gland treatment while significantly reducing side effects. (M.H. Mendez, et al., Current trends and new frontiers in focal therapy for localized prostate cancer, Current Urology Report 16, 35 (June 2015)).

The Company’s core product is its Cs-131 sealed source brachytherapy “seed.” These seeds can be inserted individually into the prostate gland until the physician is satisfied with the radiation dose delivered. The Company also sells “pre-loaded” needles with Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds inserted in them. In addition to the five-year cancer control data mentioned above, a report from 2017 describes favorable long-term quality of life outcomes following Cs-131 brachytherapy in the treatment of prostate cancer (S.M. Glaser, et al., Long-Term Quality of Life in Prostate Cancer Patients Treated With Cesium, 131 Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys. 98(5):1053-1058 (2017)).

 

Individual seeds can also be placed via needle into the female reproductive tract for the treatment of various gynecologic cancers. This effort has been led by Dr. Jonathan Feddock of the University of Kentucky. In June 2016, the lead physician from the University of Kentucky conducted two presentations on gynecological cancer patients who underwent treatment with permanent implantation of Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds. In the first presentation, it was noted that 21 out of 26 recurrent cancer patients remained visually free of cancer at a median of 14 months after implantation which equates to 80.7% local control (J. Feddock, et al., Permanent interstitial re-irradiation with cesium-131: a highly successful second chance for cure in recurrent pelvic malignancies, Brachytherapy 15 (S1)S78-9 (2016)). In the second presentation, a series of 22 women with pelvic cancer underwent Cesium-131 brachytherapy seed implantation with other forms of radiation therapy treating patients who were recently diagnosed and had not yet undergone any treatment. All these cancers were successfully controlled at a median follow-up of 16 months. Side effects using the Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds were minor and all treatments were performed as outpatient procedures. (J. Feddock, et al., Outpatient interstitial implants - integrating cesium-131 permanent interstitial brachytherapy into definitive treatment for gynecologic malignancies, Brachytherapy 15 (S1):S93-4 (2016)). Dr. Feddock and his team are continuing ongoing research.

 

While the FDA clearance granted in August 2009 to permit loading Cesium-131 seeds into bio-absorbable braided sutures or “braided strands” gives the Company the ability to treat brain, lung, head and neck, colorectal, and chest wall cancers, and gynecological cancer, the Company is currently pursuing the brain and gynecological cancers applications in addition to its primary focus on prostate cancer. The Company has also received CE Mark clearance to commercially deliver Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds that are pre-loaded into braided strands in Europe. This clearance permits the product to be commercially distributed in Europe for treatment of prostate, brain, lung, and head and neck tumors, as well as tumors in other organs.

 

Starting in 2012, multiple institutions began utilizing Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds loaded in braided strands for treatment of brain and head cancers. The application of Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds loaded in braided strands to date has been primarily in salvage cases as a treatment of last resort for brain and head cancers where aggressive tumors had reoccurred multiple times following standard of care treatment. From 2014 to 2016, there have been numerous published abstracts and society presentations which have been presented and support the effectiveness of treating very difficult and aggressive cancers with Cs-131 in multiple body sites. Dr. Gabriella Wernicke’s group, at Weill Cornell Medical College at the NY Presbyterian Hospital, published four papers on the efficacy, favorable side-effect profile and cost-effectiveness of Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds in the treatment of metastatic brain cancer. (A. Pham, et al., Neurocognitive function and quality of life in patients with newly diagnosed brain metastasis after treatment with intra-operative cesium-131 brachytherapy: a prospective trial, J Neurooncol 127(1):63-71 (2016); A.G. Wernicke, et al., Surgical technique and clinically relevant resection cavity dynamics following implantation of cesium-131 brachytherapy in patients with brain metastases, Operative Neurosurgery 12(1):49-60 (2016); A.G. Wernicke, et al., Cesium-131 brachytherapy for recurrent brain metastases: durable salvage treatment for previously irradiated metastatic disease, J Neurosurg DOI: 10.3171/2016.3.JNS152836 (Published online June 3, 2016); A.G. Wernicke, et al., The cost-effectiveness of surgical resection and cesium-131 intraoperative brachytherapy versus surgical resection and stereotactic radiosurgery in the treatment of metastatic brain tumors, J Neurooncol 127(1):145-53 (2016)). At the same institution, Dr. Bhupesh Parashar has published two journal articles on the effectiveness of Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds in the treatment of both head and neck and lung cancer. (B. Parashar, et al., Analysis of stereotactic radiation vs. wedge resection vs. wedge resection plus Cesium-131 brachytherapy in early stage lung cancer, Brachytherapy 14(5):648-54 (2015); A. Pham, et al., Cesium-131 brachytherapy in high risk and recurrent head and neck cancers: first report of long-term outcomes, J Contemp Brachytherapy 7(6):445-52 (2015)). In 2017, Dr. Wernicke’s group published favorable results on a series of patients with large brain metastases treated with Cs-131 in braided strands. A. G. Wernicke, et al., Clinical Outcomes of Large Brain Metastases Treated With Neurosurgical Resection and Intraoperative Cesium-131 Brachytherapy: Results of a Prospective Trial, Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys. 98 (5):1059-1068 (2017)).

During fiscal 2013, the Company began providing technical assistance and selling Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds for embedding in collagen tiles by physicians at Barrow Neurological Institute (Barrow) to treat malignant meningioma, primary brain cancers and metastases of cancers to the brain. These physicians from Barrow have formed a company, GT Medical Technologies, Inc. (“GT Tech”), and further refined this technology which integrates Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds and has resulted in the issuance of multiple patents to GT Tech for the treatment of brain cancers. In December 2014 and June 2016, physicians representing Barrow presented their findings at two society conferences for neuro-oncologists. Highlights of the presentation included a new treatment delivery system of Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds to the brain while embedded in collagen tiles by applying directly to brain tissue after tumor removal. The trial presented included 16 patients with 20 tumors. The patients in the study had multiple reoccurrences of tumors following previous surgeries in conjunction with treatments with external beam radiation and had an increased risk for additional reoccurrences. Following treatment with Cs-131, 95% of the treated tumors had no evidence of regrowth at the operative site (local control). The incidence of radiation side effects to the brain from Cs-131 brachytherapy seeds (a common side effect) occurred in only 2 of the 20 treatments. (D. Brachman, Prospective trial of surgery and permanent intraoperative brachytherapy (S+BT) using a modular, biocompatible radiation implant for recurrent aggressive meningiomas, Society of Neuro-Oncology Conference on Meningioma, Toronto, Canada (June 18, 2016)).

 

In November of 2016, Dr. Emad Youssef of the Barrow Neurological Institute presented a study conducted on 13 patients with recurrent high grade gliomas (primary brain cancer) at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuro-Oncology meeting. (E. Youssef, et al; Rthp-23. Cs131 Implants For Salvage Therapy Of Recurrent High Grade Gliomas (Hgg), Neuro-Oncology Volume 18, Issue suppl_6, 1 November 2016, Pages vi179). These patients were reported to have achieved a 92% rate of local control of their cancers during the follow-up interval. Due to the fact that the GammaTile™ treatment has displayed promising results in difficult to control recurrent brain cancers, the Company has collaborated with GT Tech in filing applications to: the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to clear GammaTile™ for clinical use; and a New Technology Add-on Payment (NTAP) to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) seeking reimbursement for the GammaTile™ treatment in the in-patient setting.

 

On July 6, 2018, we received FDA clearance for GammaTile™ therapy. This therapy allows IsoRay, Inc. in collaboration with GT Medical Technology (“GT”) to use our proprietary Cesium-131 seeds within GT’s customizable collagen-based carriers for the treatment of recurrent brain tumors. Although the Centers for Medicare and Medical Services (CMS) has already clarified coding for GammaTile™ in the hospital setting, GT will need to file a new NTAP application, but will not be eligible (assuming NTAP approval is obtained) for Medicare coverage until fiscal 2020.

 

On July 9, 2018, we filed Supplement No. 1 to Prospectus Supplement to suspend and to terminate the continuous at-the-market offering pursuant to a Sales Agreement with Wainwright entered into on May 8, 2018. As of July 6, 2018, the Company had raised gross proceeds of $487,353 through the sale of an aggregate of 980,918 shares of common stock.

There may also be risks of which we are currently unaware, or that we currently regard as immaterial based on the information available to us that later prove to be material. If any of these risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose some or all of your investment.

 

 

Risks Related to this Offering

 

The Price Of Our Common Stock May Be Adversely Affected By The Future Issuance And Sale Of Shares Of Our Common Stock Or Other Equity Securities. We cannot predict the size of future issuances or sales of our common stock or other equity securities, future acquisitions or capital raising activities, or the effect, if any, that such issuances or sales may have on the market price of our common stock. The issuance and sale of substantial amounts of common stock or other equity securities or announcement that such issuances and sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Future Sales By Shareholders, Or The Perception That Such Sales May Occur, May Depress The Price Of Our Common Stock. The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our shares in the public market or exercise of common stock warrants and options, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and also could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of our shares. As of July 6, 2018, we had 56,331,147 outstanding shares of common stock, and the following additional shares were reserved for issuance: 3,759,840 shares upon exercise of outstanding options, 250,000 shares upon exercise of outstanding warrants, and 59,065 shares upon conversion of Series B preferred stock. Any decline in the price of our common stock may encourage short sales, which could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock and may impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities.

 

The Issuance Of Shares Upon Exercise Of Derivative Securities May Cause Immediate And Substantial Dilution To Our Existing Shareholders. The issuance of shares upon conversion of the Series B preferred stock and the exercise of common stock warrants and options may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other shareholders since these selling shareholders may ultimately convert or exercise and sell all or a portion of the full amount issuable upon exercise. If all derivative securities outstanding as of July 6, 2018 were converted or exercised into shares of common stock, there would be approximately an additional 4,068,905 shares of common stock outstanding as a result. The issuance of these shares will have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock.

 

Since We Have Broad Discretion In How We Use The Proceeds From This Offering, We May Use The Proceeds In Ways In Which You Disagree. Our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of this offering. You will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. It is possible that the net proceeds will be invested in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for our company. The failure of our management to use such funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow.

 

Purchasers Of The Shares Will Incur Immediate Dilution. Purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution because the purchase price of the common stock will be higher than the net tangible book value per share of the outstanding common stock immediately after this offering. In addition, purchasers will experience dilution, which may be substantial, when we issue additional shares of common stock that we are permitted or required to issue under options, warrants, our stock option plans or other employee or director compensation plans. In this offering, after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, you will experience immediate dilution of $0.53 per share, representing the difference between our as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of our most recent Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2018 and utilizing the shares outstanding after giving effect to this offering. See “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase common stock in this offering.

Use of Proceeds

 

Assuming we sell 11,000,000 shares of our common stock in this offering, we estimate that the net proceeds from the sale will be approximately $7.6 million, based on the offering price of $0.75 per share, after deducting the placement agent fees and the estimated offering expenses payable by us.

 

We intend to use our net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including without limitation working capital needs with particular focus on marketing the brain application and Build-BluTM delivery system for real time brachytherapy.

 

Although we have identified some of the potential uses of the proceeds from this offering, we have and reserve broad discretion in the application of these proceeds. Accordingly, we reserve the right to use these proceeds for different purposes or uses which we have not listed above, particularly if there is a change in demand for certain applications of our Cesium-131 and other products which may require increased investment in protocols and research studies and the hiring of additional sales staff. See “Risk Factors – Since We Have Broad Discretion In How We Use The Proceeds From This Offering, We May Use The Proceeds In Ways In Which You Disagree.”

 

Based on our current plans, we believe that our net proceeds from this offering, together with our existing cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating expenses and capital expenditures for at least the next several fiscal years.

 

 

Pending any ultimate use of any portion of the proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the proceeds in short- and medium-term interest-bearing obligations, investment-grade instruments, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.

 

In addition, while we have not entered into any agreements, commitments or understandings relating to any significant transaction as of the date of this prospectus supplement, we may use a portion of the proceeds to pursue acquisitions, joint ventures and other strategic transactions.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

We will sell our common stock in this offering at a negotiated price of $0.75 per share of common stock. The principal factors considered in determining the terms and conditions of the sale of our shares hereunder include:

 

 

the market price and volatility of our common stock;

 

the recent market prices of, and demand for, publicly traded common stock of generally comparable companies; and

 

other factors deemed relevant by the placement agent and us.

 

S-6

 

Dilution

 

If you invest in our common stock, your interest in the common stock may be diluted to the extent of the difference between the price you pay for each share of common stock and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.

 

Our net tangible book value on March 31, 2018 was approximately $6,424,000 or approximately $0.11 per share. “Net tangible book value” is total assets minus the sum of liabilities and intangible assets. “Net tangible book value per share” is net tangible book value divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2018.

 

Net tangible book value dilution per share to new investors represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after completion of this offering. Assuming we sell shares of our common stock in this offering at the offering price of $0.75 per share and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses, our as-adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2018 would have been $0.22 per share. This amount represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.11 per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $0.53 per share to purchasers of common stock in this offering at the offering price, as illustrated in the following table:

59,065 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of preferred stock;

1,221,875 shares of common stock reserved for future stock option grants under our equity compensation plans;

 

 

5,500,000 Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants to be offered in the concurrent private placement, with an exercise price of $0.75 per share; and

 

 

330,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants to be issued as compensation to the placement agent of this offering, with an exercise price of $0.9375 per share.

 

To the extent that any outstanding options, warrants and convertible securities are exercised or converted, there may be further dilution to new investors.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are offering the shares of our common stock through our placement agent, H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in the letter agreement, dated July 9, 2018, H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC has agreed to act as the placement agent for the offering on a reasonable best efforts basis. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any shares by this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus. The letter agreement does not give rise to any commitment by the placement agent to purchase any of our shares of common stock and the placement agent will have no authority to bind us by virtue of the letter agreement.

 

We will sell the offered common stock to institutional and accredited investors under one or more securities purchase agreements entered into between us and each of the investors at the offering price stated on the cover of this prospectus supplement. We currently anticipate that the closing of the sale of the common stock offered hereby will take place on or about July 11, 2018. In accordance with the terms of the letter agreement, we will pay the placement agent an aggregate placement agent cash fee equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the sale of the common stock in the offering. We will also pay the placement agent a management fee equal to 1% of the gross proceeds of the sale of the common stock in the offering, $25,000 for non-accountable expenses and an expense allowance of $30,000 for legal fees and other out-of-pocket expenses. In addition, we have agreed to issue to the placement agent warrants to purchase up to 3.0% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock sold in this offering (330,000 shares). The placement agent warrants will have substantially the same terms as the Warrants issued to the investors in the concurrent private placement, except that the placement agent warrants will have an exercise price equal to $0.9375, or 125% of the offering price per share in this offering and such placement agent warrants will have a term of five years from the effective date of this offering. Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g), the placement agent warrants and any shares issued upon exercise of the placement agent warrants shall not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of effectiveness or commencement of sales of this offering, except the transfer of any security: (i) by operation of law or by reason of our reorganization; (ii) to any FINRA member firm participating in this offering and the officers or partners thereof, if all securities so transferred remain subject to the lock-up restriction set forth above for the remainder of the time period; (iii) if the aggregate amount of our securities held by the placement agent or related persons do not exceed 1% of the securities being offered; (iv) that is beneficially owned on a pro-rata basis by all equity owners of an investment fund, provided that no participating member manages or otherwise directs investments by the fund and the participating members in the aggregate do not own more than 10% of the equity in the fund; or (v) the exercise or conversion of any security, if all securities remain subject to the lock-up restriction set forth above for the remainder of the time period.

 

The estimated offering expenses payable by us, in addition to the placement agent fee of $495,000, are $182,500, which includes the company legal, accounting and printing costs and management fee and various other fees associated with registering and listing the common stock.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and liabilities arising from breaches of representations and warranties contained in the letter agreement. We have also agreed to contribute to payments the placement agent may be required to make in respect of such liabilities.

As an underwriter, the placement agent would be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of common stock and warrants by the placement agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent:

              Exchange Act, until it has completed its participation in the distribution.

 

 

Wainwright and its affiliates may in the future provide various investment banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which services they may in the future receive customary fees. We have entered into a sales agreement with Wainwright relating to a continuous sale of our shares of common stock pursuant to an at-the-market offering, for which Wainwright receives compensation. We have suspended any sales under such offering as of the date of this prospectus supplement.

 

We are filing a copy of the form of securities purchase agreement with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K concurrently with the filing of this prospectus supplement.

 

PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF WARRANTS

 

In a concurrent private placement, we are selling to each of the investors in this offering Warrants to purchase an additional 50% of the number of shares purchased in this offering. The aggregate number of Warrant Shares exercisable pursuant to the Warrants is 5,500,000 Shares. The Warrants will be exercisable commencing six months following the date of issuance, have a term of exercise equal to five and one-half years, and have an exercise price of $0.75, subject to adjustment. The exercise price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend and split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described in the Warrants.

 

A holder of Warrants will have the right to exercise the Warrants on a “cashless” basis in certain circumstances as described in the Warrants, including, among others, while there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise, provided that the holder may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation up to 9.99%, provided, further, that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation shall not be effective until 61 days following notice of such change to the Company.

 

The Warrants and the Warrant Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus form a part and are not being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus. The Warrants and the Warrant Shares are being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. All purchasers are required to be “accredited investors” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.

ABOUT ISORAY

 

In this prospectus, the terms “IsoRay,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to IsoRay, Inc. and its subsidiaries IsoRay, Medical, Inc. (Medical) and IsoRay International LLC.

 

In 2003, IsoRay obtained clearance from the FDA for treatment for all solid tumor applications using Cesium-131. As of the date of this prospectus, such applications include prostate cancer; ocular melanoma; head, neck and lung tumors; breast cancer; liver cancer; brain cancer; colorectal cancer; gynecological cancer; esophageal cancer; and pancreatic cancer. The brachytherapy seed form of Cesium-131 may be used in surface, interstitial and intracavity applications for tumors with known radio sensitivity. Management believes its Cs-131 technology will allow it to become a leader in the brachytherapy market. Management believes that the IsoRay Proxcelan® Cesium-131 brachytherapy seed represents the first major advancement in brachytherapy technology in approximately 30 years with attributes that could make it the long-term “seed of choice” for internal radiation therapy procedures.

 

Brachytherapy seeds are small devices used in an interstitial radiation procedure. The procedure has become one of the primary treatments for prostate cancer. The brachytherapy procedure places radioactive seeds as close as possible to (in or near) the cancerous tumor (the word “brachytherapy” means close therapy). The seeds deliver therapeutic radiation thereby killing the cancerous tumor cells while minimizing exposure to adjacent healthy tissue. This procedure allows doctors to administer a higher dose of radiation directly to the tumor. Each seed contains a radioisotope sealed within a titanium capsule. When brachytherapy is the only treatment (monotherapy) used in the prostate, approximately 70 to 120 seeds are permanently implanted in the prostate in an outpatient procedure. The number of seeds used varies based on the size of the prostate and the activity level specified by the physician. When brachytherapy is combined with external beam radiation or intensity modulated radiation therapy (dual therapy), then approximately 40 to 80 seeds are used in the procedure. The isotope decays over time and eventually the seeds become inert. The seeds may be used as a primary treatment or as an adjunct therapy with other treatment modalities, such as chemotherapy, or as treatment for residual disease after excision of primary tumors. The number of seeds for other treatment sites commonly vary from as few as 8 seeds to more than 100 seeds depending on the type of cancer, the location of the tumor being treated and the type of therapy being utilized.

IsoRay began production and sales of Proxcelan® Cesium-131 brachytherapy seeds in October 2004 for the treatment of prostate cancer after clearance of its premarket notification (510(k)) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In December 2007, IsoRay began selling its Proxcelan® Cs-131 seeds for the treatment of ocular melanoma, however, the market for the treatment has been limited generating a minimal amount of revenue for the Company. The Company continues to make the treatment available to interested physicians and medical facilities. In June 2009, the Company began selling its Proxcelan® Cs-131 seeds for treatment of head and neck tumors, commencing with treatment of a tumor that could not be accessed by other treatment modalities. The Company obtained clearance in August 2009 from the FDA to permit loading Cesium-131 into bioabsorbable braided sutures which are commonly referred to in the industry as braided strands, facilitating treatment of brain, lung, and head and neck tumors as well as tumors in other organs with Proxcelan® Cs-131. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Company expanded the number of areas of the body in which the Proxcelan® Cs-131 seeds were being utilized for treatment by adding lung cancer in August 2009, colorectal cancer in October 2009, and chest wall cancer in December 2009. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, the Company continued the expansion in the number of areas of the body in which the Proxcelan® Cs-131 seeds were being utilized through the addition of the treatment of brain cancer in September 2010 and the treatment of gynecological cancer in December 2010.

 

In March 2011, the Company received clearance to commercially deliver Proxcelan® Cesium-131 brachytherapy seeds that are preloaded into bioabsorbable braided sutures into Europe. This clearance permits the product to be commercially distributed for treatment of brain, lung, and head and neck tumors as well as tumors in other organs in Europe.

 

In August 2011, Medical received clearance from the FDA for its premarket notification (510(k)) for the GliaSite® Radiation Therapy System (GliaSite® RTS).The GliaSite® RTS is the only FDA-cleared balloon catheter device used in the treatment of brain cancer.

 

In May 2012, Medical received a CE mark for the GliaSite® RTS which states that the Company conforms with the product requirements of the European Council Directive 93/42/EEC. The CE mark allows the GliaSite® RTS to be sold in 31 European countries and to be marketed in the European Free Trade Associate member states and the European Union. In June 2012, the first Cesium-131 brachytherapy seed sutured mesh was implanted on a patient suffering from a recurring meningioma tumor.

 

Management focused in fiscal 2012 and 2013 on obtaining its regulatory clearances and final research and development of its GliaSite® RTS, entering into international distribution agreements to sell the product in Europe and Australia, and marketing its brain and lung products. The GliaSite® RTS is the world’s only system that enables doctors to use liquid radiation in areas where the cancer is most likely to remain after brain surgery and tumor removal. In fiscal 2013, the Company began supporting the use of a system developed at the Barrow Neurological Institute to deliver doses of Cesium-131 to treat malignant meningioma, brain metastases, and primary cancers of the brain. A multi-institutional study was conducted to explore the use of braided sutures containing Proxcelan® Cs-131 seeds placed directly into the cavity following surgical resection of brain metastases.

 

In August 2013, Medical received an approval for an extension to the scope of the CE mark for the GliaSite® RTS. This approval allows Medical to implement certain product improvements that management believes will enhance GliaSite® RTS’s acceptance by customers in the European market.

 

In December 2013, the Company received clearance for Cesitrex from the US Food and Drug Administration. Cesitrex is the liquid form of Cesium-131 and can be used in place of Iotrex®, the liquid form of Iodine-125, in the Company’s GliaSite® RTS. In May 2014, the Company received clearance for Cesitrex from the Washington Department of Health. In June 2014, the Company delivered its first order of Cesitrex for use in treating a patient.

In October 2014, IsoRay announced early success for a young Peruvian girl utilizing Cesium-131 in the first stereotactic implant for inoperable brain cancer. This 7 year old girl is back in school as of August 2015 with no restrictions and normal activities. In December 2014, Barrow Neurological Institute released its findings that IsoRay’s Cesium-131 therapy stops brain cancers from recurring in treated locations where previous conventional treatments failed.

 

Also, in December 2014, Cesium-131 was used in the world’s first veterinary implant in a horse with cancer.

 

In January 2015, the first Cesium-131 prostate cancer treatment was performed in Russia at the Neftyanik Hospital, a center providing cutting edge cancer treatments. In May 2015, the five-year 96% success in local control and 100% survival rates for lung cancer treatment using Cesium-131 were released in a peer-reviewed study.

 

In June 2015, Cesium-131 was selected by Chicago Prostate Cancer Center for use in the launch of a study of focal treatment of prostate cancer.

 

While management has not identified additional opportunities to expand treatment to other sites in the body, we continue to investigate potential new opportunities with interested physicians and medical facilities. Management is now focusing primarily on the brain, lung and gynecological markets while the Company continues to research delivery systems other than those historically used by the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

The following is a summary description of the rights of our common stock and related provisions of our amended Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws. The following description of our capital stock is intended as a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our amended Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and to the applicable provisions of Minnesota law.

 

Common Stock

 

Our common shares are listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ISR”. As of August 20, 2015, 55,013,553 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding, and there were approximately 237 holders of record.

 

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that the Company has the authority to issue 200 million shares of capital stock, which are currently divided into two classes as follows: 192,998,329 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001 per share; and 7,001,671 shares of preferred stock, also with a par value of $0.001 per share.

 

The holders of our common stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such shares. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are, and the shares of our common stock when issued will be, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

Voting. Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by the Company’s shareholders. The Company’s Bylaws provide that a majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation entitled to vote constitute a quorum at a meeting of the shareholders.

 

Dividends. The Company’s Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may declare and pay dividends on the common stock, payable in cash or other consideration, out of funds legally available, if all dividends due on the preferred stock have been declared and paid. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not plan to pay any cash dividends on its common stock for the foreseeable future.

 

Liquidation, Subdivision, or Combination. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or upon the distribution of its assets, all assets and funds remaining after payment in full of the Company’s debts and liabilities, and after the payment to holders of any then outstanding preferred stock of the full preferential amounts to which they were entitled, would be divided and distributed among holders of the common stock.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects Of Provisions Of The Articles Of Incorporation. The authorized but unissued shares of our common and preferred stock are available for future issuance without our shareholders’ approval. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes including but not limited to future public or direct offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee incentive plans. The issuance of such shares may also be used to deter a potential takeover of IsoRay that may otherwise be beneficial to shareholders by diluting the shares held by a potential suitor or issuing shares to a shareholder that will vote in accordance with IsoRay’s Board of Directors’ desires. A takeover may be beneficial to shareholders because, among other reasons, a potential suitor may offer shareholders a premium for their shares of stock compared to the then-existing market price.

 

On February 1, 2007, the Board of Directors of IsoRay, Inc. declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding Common Share of the par value of $.001 per share (the “Common Shares”) of the Company. The dividend is payable on February 16, 2007 (the “Record Date”) to shareholders of record on that date.

 

Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a Series C Junior Participating Preferred Share of the par value of $.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”) of the Company at a price of $25 per one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), dated as of February 1, 2007, between the Company and Computershare Trust Company N.A., as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agent”).

Initially, the Rights will attach to all certificates representing Common Shares then outstanding and no separate Right Certificates will be distributed. The Rights will separate from the Common Shares and a Distribution Date for the Rights will occur upon the earlier of:

 

(i)     the close of business on the fifteenth day following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons has become an “Acquiring Person” (i.e., has become, subject to certain exceptions, the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of voting capital stock of the Company in the election of directors), or

 

(ii)     the close of business on the fifteenth day following the first public announcement relating to a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would result in a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becoming, subject to certain exceptions, the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of voting capital stock of the Company in the election of directors (or such later date as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becoming an Acquiring Person).

 

Until the Distribution Date,

 

(i)       the Rights will be evidenced by the Common Share certificates and will be transferred with and only with the Common Shares,

 

(ii)      new Common Share certificates issued after the Record Date upon transfer or new issuance of the Common Shares will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference, and

 

(iii)    the surrender for transfer of any Common Share certificate, even without such notation or a copy of this Summary of Rights attached thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificate.

 

As promptly as practicable following the Distribution Date, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Right Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Shares as of the close of business on the Distribution Date and such separate Right Certificates alone will evidence the Rights.

 

The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. The Rights will expire on February 16, 2017, unless extended or earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company as described below.

 

The Purchase Price payable, and the number of Preferred Shares or other securities or property issuable, upon exercise of the Rights are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution:

 

(i)        in the event of a stock dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the Preferred Shares,

 

(ii)       upon the grant to holders of the Preferred Shares of certain rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Preferred Shares or convertible securities at less than the then current market price of the Preferred Shares, or

 

(iii)     upon the distribution to holders of the Preferred Shares of evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding regular periodic cash dividends or dividends payable in Preferred Shares) or of subscription rights or warrants (other than those described in clause (ii) hereof).

 

The number of Preferred Shares issuable upon the exercise of a Right is also subject to adjustment in the event of a dividend on Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares.

 

With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at least 1% in the Purchase Price. No fractional Preferred Shares will be issued (other than fractional shares which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth (subject to adjustment) of a Preferred Share, which may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts) if in lieu thereof a payment in cash is made based on the closing price (pro-rated for the fraction) of the Preferred Shares on the last trading date prior to the date of exercise.

In the event that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right, other than Rights that are or were beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person (which will thereafter be void), will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right that number of Common Shares having a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right, subject to certain possible adjustments.

 

In the event that, after the Distribution Date or within 15 days prior thereto, the Company is acquired in certain mergers or other business combination transactions or 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its subsidiaries (taken as a whole) are sold after the Distribution Date or within 15 days prior thereto, each holder of a Right (other than Rights which have become void under the terms of the Rights Agreement) will thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right, that number of common shares of the acquiring company (or, in certain cases, one of its affiliates) having a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right.

 

In certain events specified in the Rights Agreement, the Company is permitted to temporarily suspend the exercisability of the Rights.

 

At any time after a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person (subject to certain exceptions) and prior to the acquisition by a person or group of affiliated or associated persons of 50% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of voting capital stock of the Company in the election of directors, the Board of Directors of the Company may exchange all or part of the Rights (other than Rights which have become void under the terms of the Rights Agreement) for Common Shares or equivalent securities at an exchange ratio per Right equal to the result obtained by dividing the exercise price of a Right by the current per share market price of the Common Shares, subject to adjustment.

 

At any time prior to such time as a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, the Board of Directors of the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.001 per Right, subject to adjustment (the “Redemption Price”), payable in cash. The period of time during which the Rights may be redeemed may be extended by the Board of Directors of the Company if no person has become an Acquiring Person. The redemption of the Rights may be made effective at such time, on such basis and with such conditions as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish. The Board of Directors and the Company shall not have any liability to any person as a result of the redemption or exchange of the Rights pursuant to the provisions of the Rights Agreement.

 

The terms of the Rights may be amended by the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to certain limitations after such time as a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, without the consent of the holders of the Rights, including an amendment prior to the date a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person to lower the 15% threshold for exercisability of the Rights to not less than the greater of (i) the sum of .001% and the largest percentage of the outstanding shares of voting capital stock of the Company with voting power in the election of directors then known by the Company to be beneficially owned by any person or group of affiliated or associated persons (subject to certain exceptions) or (ii) 10%.

 

Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends.

 

The foregoing description of the Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Rights Agreement.

Our shares of common stock are traded on the NYSE MKT under the ticker symbol “ISR.”

 

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK

 

We may issue our preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, from time to time in one or more series. Of the 7,001,671 shares of presently authorized preferred stock, 1,000,000 are designated as Series A Preferred Stock, 5,000,000 are designated as Series B Preferred Stock, 1,000,000 are designated as Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock, and 1,671 are designated as Series D. Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series C preferred shares are related to the Rights Agreement described above. As of August 20, 2015, no shares of our Series A, Series C or Series D preferred stock were outstanding and 59,065 shares of our Series B preferred stock were outstanding.

 

Series A

 

Series A preferred shares are entitled to a 10% dividend annually on the stated par value per share. These shares are convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of one share of common stock for each share of Series A preferred stock, and are subject to automatic conversion into common stock upon the closing of an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 covering the offer and sale of common stock in which the gross proceeds to the Company are at least $4 million. Series A preferred shareholders have voting rights equal to the voting rights of common stock, except that the vote or written consent of a majority of the outstanding preferred shares is required for any changes to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or Certificate of Designation, or for any bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation of the Company. Upon liquidation of the Company, the Company’s assets are first distributed ratably to the Series A preferred shareholders.

 

Series B

 

Series B preferred shares are entitled to a cumulative 15% dividend annually on the stated par value per share. These shares are convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of one share of common stock for each share of Series B preferred stock, and are subject to automatic conversion into common stock upon the closing of an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 covering the offer and sale of common stock in which the gross proceeds to the Company are at least $4 million. Series B preferred shareholders have voting rights equal to the voting rights of common stock, except that the vote or written consent of a majority of the outstanding preferred shares is required for any changes to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or Certificate of Designation, or for any bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation of the Company. Upon liquidation of the Company, the Company’s assets are first distributed ratably to the Series A preferred shareholders, then to the Series B preferred shareholders.

 

Series D

 

Established in August 2013, Series D preferred shares are entitled to dividends in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of common stock. Additionally, the Company shall not pay any dividends on shares of common stock (other than dividends in the form of common stock) unless the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock shall first receive dividends on shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock held by them (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock-basis) in an amount equal to and in the same form as any such dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) to be paid on shares of common stock. Except as required by law, shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock shall not have the right to vote on any matter other than those set forth in the Certificate of Designation with the potential to specifically adversely affect the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. Series D Convertible Preferred shares are convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of 1,869.15 shares of common stock for each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock at any time at the option of the holder, provided that the holder will be prohibited from converting shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock if, as a result of the conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the total number of shares of our common stock then issued and outstanding, which is referred to herein as the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”.

Undesignated Preferred Stock

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock from time to time with such designations, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, dividends or limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption as shall be determined by the Board of Directors for each class or series of stock subject to the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation. Preferred stock is available for possible future financings or acquisitions and for general corporate purposes without further authorization of stockholders unless such authorization is required by applicable law, the rules of the NYSE MKT or other securities exchange or market on which our stock is then listed or admitted to trading.

 

The Board of Directors, without approval of holders of common stock, can issue preferred stock with voting, conversion or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock. Preferred stock could thus be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control of or make removal of management more difficult and/or impair the liquidation rights of our common stock. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of decreasing the market price of the common stock.

 

If we offer a specific series of new preferred stock under this prospectus, we will describe the terms of the preferred stock in the prospectus supplement for such offering and will file a copy of the certificate establishing the terms of the preferred stock with the SEC. To the extent required, this description will include:

the number of shares of the preferred stock offered, the liquidation preference per share and the offering price of the preferred stock;

The preferred stock offered by this prospectus, when issued, will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar rights, and will, when issued, be fully paid and non-assessable.

We may issue warrants for the purchase of shares of our common stock and/or preferred stock in one or more series together with other securities or separately, as described in each applicable prospectus supplement.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

 

We may issue units composed of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.

 

We may evidence units by unit certificates that we issue under a separate agreement. We may issue the units under a unit agreement between us and one or more unit agents. If we elect to enter into a unit agreement with a unit agent, the unit agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the units and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any registered holders of units or beneficial owners of units. We will indicate the name and address and other information regarding the unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of units if we elect to use a unit agent.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We may sell the securities offered through this prospectus (i) to or through underwriters or dealers, (ii) directly to a single purchaser or multiple purchasers, including our affiliates, (iii) through agents, or (iv) through a combination of any these methods. The securities may be distributed at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, market prices prevailing at the time of sale, prices related to the prevailing market prices, or negotiated prices. The prospectus supplement will include the following information:

any initial public offering price;

 

 

any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers;

 

 

any commissions paid to agents; and

 

 

any securities exchange or market on which the securities may be listed.

 

Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

 

Sale Through Underwriters or Dealers

 

Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement are underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.

 

If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account, including through underwriting, purchase, security lending or repurchase agreements with us. The underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions. Underwriters may sell the securities in order to facilitate transactions in any of our other securities (described in this prospectus or otherwise), including other public or private transactions and short sales. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.

 

If dealers are used in the sale of securities offered through this prospectus, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. The prospectus supplement will include the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction.

 

In compliance with the guidelines of the Financial Services Regulatory Authority, Inc., or FINRA, the maximum compensation to be received by a FINRA member or independent broker-dealer may not exceed 8% of the offering proceeds.

 

Direct Sales and Sales Through Agents

 

We may sell the securities offered through this prospectus directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. Such securities may also be sold through agents designated from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities and will describe any commissions payable to the agent. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.

 

12

 

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. The terms of any such sales will be described in the prospectus supplement.

 

Delayed Delivery Contracts

 

If the prospectus supplement indicates, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.

 

Market Making, Stabilization and Other Transactions

 

We may elect to list offered securities on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market. Any underwriters that we use in the sale of offered securities may make a market in such securities, but may discontinue such market making at any time without notice. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the securities will have a liquid trading market.

 

Certain persons participating in an offering may engage in overallotment, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with rules and regulations under the Exchange Act. Overallotment involves the sale in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions involve bids to purchase the underlying security in the open market for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions.

 

Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence these transactions, discontinue them at any time.

 

General Information

 

Agents, underwriters, and dealers may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Our agents, underwriters, and dealers, or their affiliates, may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business.

COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide to directors and officers indemnification to the full extent provided by law, and provide that, to the extent permitted by Minnesota law, a director will not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company or its shareholders for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for certain actions that may not be limited under Minnesota law. On July 1, 2006, the Company entered into Indemnification Agreements with each of its directors and executive officers, and has entered into Indemnification Agreements with each officer and director who took office subsequent to July 1, 2006, and the Company intends to enter into substantially identical agreements with any officers and directors who take office in the future. The purpose of the Indemnification Agreements is to provide all officers and directors with indemnification to the fullest extent permitted under the Minnesota Business Corporations Act.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
