01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On January 13, 2025, VerifyMe, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an inducement letter agreement (the "Inducement Letter Agreement") with an institutional investor and existing holder (the "Holder") of existing warrants (the "Existing Warrants") to purchase up to 1,461,896 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"). The Existing Warrants were originally issued on April 14, 2022, with an exercise price of $3.215 per share, and became exercisable six months following issuance. The issuance of the shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Existing Warrants is registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-265852), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 6, 2022. Pursuant to the Inducement Letter Agreement, the Holder agreed to exercise the Existing Warrants for cash at the exercise price of $3.215 per share in consideration for the Company's agreement to issue a new unregistered warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,461,896 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share (the "New Warrant"). The New Warrant will be immediately exercisable upon issuance and have a term of five and one-half years from the issuance date. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or other appropriate form if it is not eligible to utilize Form S-3) providing for the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the New Warrant (the "Resale Registration Statement") within 45 calendar days following the date of the Inducement Letter Agreement, and to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practical from the date of the Inducement Letter Agreement. Pursuant to the Inducement Letter Agreement, except for certain exempt issuances set forth in the Inducement Letter Agreement, the Compan
