Item 8.01 Other Events

 

On January 22, 2016, Agile Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with William Blair & Company, L.L.C. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale of 5,511,812 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, per value $0.0001 per share, to the Underwriters (the “Offering”).  The Shares were sold at a price to the public of $6.35 per Share and were purchased by the Underwriters from the Company at a price of $5.969 per Share. The Company also granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 826,771 additional shares of its common stock. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, excluding any exercise by the Underwriters of their 30-day option to purchase additional shares, are expected to be approximately $32.4 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by the Company, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Underwriting Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

 

The Offering is being made by means of a written prospectus forming part of a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-205120), previously filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and declared effective by the SEC on July 1, 2015, and a related prospectus supplement. The Underwriting Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, and the description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit. A copy of the opinion of Morgan, Lewis and Bockius LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares in the Offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.

 

On January 21, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had commenced the Offering. On January 22, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offering. Copies of these press releases are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto, respectively.
