Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On March 9, 2016, Harris & Harris Group, Inc., issued a press release announcing that it will begin offering limited numbers of accredited investors the opportunity to co-invest with Harris & Harris Group in its portfolio companies.

 

The opportunities to invest will be provided through H&H Co-Investment Partners, LLC, a newly formed entity that will be managed by Harris & Harris Group. Harris & Harris Group intends to solicit interest in separate series established by H&H Co-Investment Partners to invest in individual portfolio companies, ahead of potential future rounds of financing. Harris & Harris Group expects that accredited investors who have held its stock prior to the close of each financing will have priority in the allocation of these limited co-investment opportunities. Additional information on how accredited investors may subscribe to these offerings will be provided later in March of 2016.
