Ubiquity, Inc. Registration Rights Agreement Is Now Effective
IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Ubiquity, Inc. (OTCBB: UBIQ) ("Ubiquity" or the "Company"), a technology development and licensing company that holds an extensive portfolio of patents across multiple technology market verticals, announced that as of September 22, 2014, the previously announced registration rights agreement for holders of shares of the Company's restricted common stock for a proposed firm commitment underwritten offering for gross proceeds to the Company of at least $40 million (the "Proposed Offering") has been signed by holders of at least 75% of the Company's issued and outstanding restricted common stock. The Registration Rights Agreement is now effective. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for certain milestones for it to remain effective, including matters related to engaging a managing underwriter and other matters related to a public offering. The Proposed Offering is intended by the Company to enable it to satisfy one of the requirements to uplist the Company's common stock to NASDAQ.
"We are delighted that our shareholders continue to show their confidence in our Company and management team and will participate in our proposed public offering that will help us attain our growth objectives," stated Chris Carmichael, CEO of Ubiquity, Inc. "We look forward to serving our shareholders and value their continued support as we continue to build value both operationally and in the public markets."
Carmichael concluded, "All of our executives are party to the Registration Rights Agreement and will be subject to any additional lock-up as the managing underwriter may require and we appreciate the continued commitment of our executive team."
Holders of restricted common stock that are party to the Registration Rights Agreement have agreed to not sell their shares except as part of the Proposed Offering or unless certain events ("milestones") are not achieved by the dates specified in the Registration Rights Agreement. These milestones represent some of the key execution points to successfully complete a Proposed Offering such as engaging the managing underwriter, filing the registration statement with the SEC on Form S-1 and completing the offering. Each Holder may choose to opt out and not sell their shares in any Proposed Offering if the price or other terms are not acceptable to them.
The potential Registration Rights Agreement was previously announced by the Company on September 11, 2014. The Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission are available at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Herrick, Feinstein LLP is serving as legal counsel to the Company in this transaction.
