Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. Securities Purchase Agreement On October 28, 2024, Curis, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain institutional investors (the "Purchasers"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue: (i) in a registered direct offering (the "Registered Offering"), 2,398,414 shares (the "Shares") of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock") and (ii) in a concurrent private placement (the "Private Placement" and, together with the Registered Offering, the "Offerings") unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,398,414 shares of Common Stock (the "Unregistered Warrants"), at an exercise price of $4.92 per share. The combined purchase price for one share of Common Stock and the associated Unregistered Warrant is $5.045. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Offerings are expected to be approximately $12.1 million, before deducting fees payable to the placement agents and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, and excluding the proceeds from any exercise of the Unregistered Warrants. The Shares are being offered by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-276950) that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 8, 2024 and declared effective on April 12, 2024 (the "Registration Statement") and a prospectus supplement thereunder. The Unregistered Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Unregistered Warrants (the "Warrant Shares") are not being offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and 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/or Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. The Offerings are expected to close concurrently on or about October 30, 2024,
02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. The information contained above in Item 1.01 related to the Private Placement is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. Based in part upon the representations of the Purchasers in the Purchase Agreement, the offering and sale of the Unregistered Warrants and the Warrant Shares in the Private Placement is being conducted pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. The Unregistered Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and the Unregistered Warrants and Warrant Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. The Private Placement will not involve a public offering and will be made without general solicitation or general advertising. The Purchasers represented that they are institutional "accredited investors" as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3), (7), (8) or (9) under the Securities Act or "qualified institutional buyers" within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and that they are acquiring the Unregistered Warrants for investment purposes only and not with a view to any resale, distribution or other disposition of the Unregistered Warrants in violation of the United States federal securities laws.
01. Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events. Press Release On October 29 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offerings. A copy of the press release has been filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. Cash Runway Based on the Company's research and development plans and the Company's timing expectations related to the progress of its programs, the Company expects that the net proceeds from the Offerings (excluding proceeds from any exercise of Unregistered Warrants), together with its existing cash and cash equivalents, will enable the Company to fund its operations into mid-2025.
