Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 22, 2025, Verb Technology Company, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (the “Investor”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and Investor agreed that the Company shall sell and the Investor agreed to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company’s newly designated Non-Convertible, Non-Voting Series D Preferred Stock (the “Shares”) for a total purchase price of $5,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). The Shares have no voting rights and a face value of $1,200 per share. The sale of the Shares was consummated on April 22, 2025.
The Company intends to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes. The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from the Company, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other.
The description of the Securities Purchase Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Securities Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto. A summary of the rights and preferences of the Certificate of Designation of the Shares is disclosed below and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the Certificate of Designation attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The sale of the Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and certain rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
The information contained in Items 1.01 and 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the sale of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On April 23, 2025, the Company filed a certificate of designation of preferences and rights (the “Certificate of Designation”) of Series D Non-Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), with the Secretary of State of Nevada, designating 7500 shares of non-convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001 of the Company, as Series D Preferred Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall have a stated face value of $1,200.00 (“Stated Value”).
Each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall accrue a rate of return on the Stated Value at the rate of 9% per year, compounded annually to the extent not paid as set forth in the Certificate of Designation, and to be determined pro rata for any fractional year periods (the “Preferred Return”). The Preferred Return shall accrue on each share of Series D Preferred Stock from the date of its issuance, and shall be payable or otherwise settled as set forth in the Certificate of Designation.
The Preferred Return shall be payable on a quarterly basis, within five Business Days (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) of the end of each calendar quarter, either in cash or via the issuance to the applicable Series D Holder of an additional number of shares of Series D Stock equal to (i) the Preferred Return then accrued and unpaid, divided by (ii) the Stated Value, with the election as to payment in cash or via the issuance of additional shares of Series D Stock to be determined in the discretion of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation elects to pay any Preferred Return via the issuance of shares of Series D Stock, no fractional shares of Series D Stock shall be issued, and the Corporation shall pay in cash the Preferred Return that would otherwise be payable via the issuance of a fractional share of Series D Stock.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Certificate of Designation, at any time the Corporation may elect, in the sole discretion of the Board, to redeem in whole or in part, the Series D Stock then issued and outstanding from all of the Series D Holders (a “Corporation Optional Redemption”) by paying to the applicable Series D Holders an amount in cash equal to the Series D Preferred Liquidation Amount then applicable to such shares of Series D Stock being redeemed in the Corporation Optional Redemption (the “Redemption Price”).
The Series D Preferred Stock confers no voting rights on holders, except with respect to matters that materially and adversely affect the voting powers, rights or preferences of the Series D Preferred Stock or as otherwise required by applicable law.
This description of the Certificate of Designation is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the Certificate of Designation attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto.
