(Nasdaq: AUVI; AUVIP) (“Applied UV” or the “Company”), a global leading provider of advanced food security and air and surface disinfection technology, today announced the pricing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering with gross proceeds to the Company expected to be approximately $6.4 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and other estimated expenses payable by the Company. The offering was upsized from $6.0 million. The base offering consists of 42,666,666 units or pre-funded units (the “Units”), each Unit consisting of one share of common stock (“Common Stock”) or one pre-funded warrant (“Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock, one-tenth (1/10) of a Series A warrant (“Series A Warrant”) to purchase one a share of Common Stock and one-tenth (1/10) of a Series B Warrant to purchase one a share of Common Stock (“Series B Warrant” and, together with the Series A Warrant, the “Warrants”), at an offering price of $0.15 per Unit. The purchase price of each Unit including a Pre-Funded Warrant will be equal to the price per Unit including one share of Common Stock, minus $0.00001, and the remaining exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant will equal $0.00001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full.
