PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

(To Prospectus dated July 5, 2018)

 

 

 

550,000 Shares of Common Stock

Warrants to Purchase up to 275,000 Shares of Common Stock

(including the 275,000 Shares of Common Stock Issuable Upon Exercise of the Warrants)
 

 

Pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, we are offering (i) 550,000 shares of our common stock and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 275,000 shares of our common stock. This prospectus supplement also relates to the offering of the 275,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The shares of common stock and the warrants are being sold directly to certain accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated January 5, 2021.

 

The shares of common stock are being sold at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. The warrants to purchase up to 275,000 shares of our common stock, or the Warrants, have an exercise price of $11.00 per share. The shares of common stock and the Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately.

 

The shares of common stock and Warrants are being offered directly to investors without a placement agent or underwriter.

 

We are not paying underwriting discounts or commissions in connection with the offering. The gross proceeds to us before expenses will be $5,500,000, assuming the Warrants are not exercised. If the Warrants are exercised in full, we will receive $8,525,000 in gross proceeds before expenses. We estimate the total expenses of this offering will be $50,000.

 

Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “PRPH.” On January 5, 2021, the last reported sales price for our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market was $10.84 per share. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

 

As of the date of this prospectus supplement, the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates, or our public float, was approximately $95.0 million, which amount is based on 8,793,216 outstanding shares of common stock held by non-affiliates and a per share price of $10.84 the closing price of our common stock on January 5, 2021.

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Please read “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-3 of this prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities, or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus are truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should carefully consider the risks discussed under the Section captioned “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Form 10-K”) and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC subsequent to the Form 10-K, and in other documents that we subsequently file with the SEC, all of which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, the information and documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, and in any free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Relating to this Offering

 

If you purchase securities in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

 

The public offering price of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock. Therefore, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock from the price per share that you pay for the securities in this offering. If the holders of outstanding options or warrants or other outstanding convertible securities exercise or convert those options or warrants or other outstanding convertible securities at prices below the public offering price, you will incur further dilution. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution associated with this offering.

 

We have broad discretion to determine how to use the proceeds raised in this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.

 

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering, and we could spend the proceeds from this offering in ways with which you may not agree or that do not yield a favorable return. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses of the proceeds from this offering. Accordingly, we will retain broad discretion over the use of such proceeds. If we do not invest or apply the proceeds of this offering in ways that improve our operating results, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause our stock price to decline.

 

There is no public market for the Warrants.

 

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

 

Pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, we are offering (i) 550,000 shares of our common stock and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 275,000 shares of our common stock, or the Warrants. This prospectus supplement also relates to the offering of the 275,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The shares of common stock and the Warrants are being sold directly to certain accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated January 5, 2021.

 

The shares of common stock are being sold at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. The Warrants have an exercise price of $11.00 per share. The shares of common stock and the Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders, except on matters relating solely to terms of preferred stock. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock will be entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. The holders of our common stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Warrants

 

The material terms and provisions of the Warrants being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus are summarized below. The Warrants will be issued as an individual warrant agreement to the investors in this offering. You should review the form of Warrant, filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC in connection with this offering, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the Warrants. The following brief summary of the material terms and provisions of the Warrants offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the form of Warrant.

 

Exercisability

 

The Warrants are exercisable at any time and from time to time after the date of issuance and will expire on the third anniversary of the date of issuance. The Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise. The exercise price of the Warrants is $11.00 per share.

 

If there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, then the Warrants may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” pursuant to the formula described in the Warrant agreement.

 

Exercise Limitations

 

Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Warrants if the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of common stock in excess of 4.99% of the shares of our common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise, or the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, however, that, upon notice to us, the holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that in no event will the Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.99% and any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.

 

 S-6 

 

 

Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares of Common Stock

 

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to adjustment from time to time in certain circumstances, including, but not limited to circumstances in which we:

 

  (i) pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of our common stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of common stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, will not include any shares of common stock issued by us upon exercise of the Warrants);
     
  (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of common stock into a larger number of shares;
     
  (iii) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number of shares; or
     
  (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the common stock any shares of our capital stock;

 

then in each case the exercise price will be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator will be the number of shares of common stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator will be the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate exercise price of the Warrants will remain unchanged. Any adjustment made will become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and will become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

Fundamental Transactions

 

If, at any time while the Warrants are outstanding we enter into a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrant agreement), then, upon the closing of such Fundamental Transaction, the Warrant holders will have the right to exercise their Warrants effective immediately upon the closing of such Fundamental Transaction such that the Holders will receive upon such exercise, for each share of common stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to the beneficial ownership limitation on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration, or the Alternate Consideration, receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of common stock for which the Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to the beneficial ownership limitation on the exercise of the Warrants). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the exercise price will be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of common stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and we will apportion the exercise price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of common stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Warrant holders will be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration they receive upon any such exercise of the Warrants upon the closing of such Fundamental Transaction. In the event a Warrant holder elects not to exercise its Warrant upon the closing of a Fundamental Transaction, the Warrant will automatically terminate immediately upon the closing of such Fundamental Transaction.

 

Exchange Listing

 

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any securities exchange or recognized trading system.

 

Rights as Stockholder

 

Except as set forth in the Warrants, the holders of each of the Warrants, solely in such holders’ capacity as warrant holders, will not be entitled to vote, will not be entitled to receive dividends, and will not be entitled to any of the other rights of our stockholders.

 

 S-7 

 

 

DILUTION

 

The purchasers of shares of common stock and Warrants offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will suffer immediate dilution in the net tangible book value per share of common stock.

 

Our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2020 was approximately $10.8 million, or $0.93 per share. Net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the aggregate number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2020. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.

 

After giving effect to the issuance of the shares of common stock we are offering at an offering price of $10.00 per share of common stock, and assuming no exercise of the Warrants, for assumed gross proceeds of $5,500,000, and after deducting estimated offering expenses of $50,000 payable by us, our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2020 would have been approximately $16.3 million, or $1.34 per share of common stock. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $0.41 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $8.66 per share to new investors purchasing securities in this offering. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

 

Public offering price per share of common stock         $ 10.00
Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2020   $ 0.93      
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors   $ 0.41      
As adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering         $ 1.34
Net dilution per share to new investors         $ 8.66

 

The above discussion and table are based on 11,604,253 shares outstanding as of September 30, 2020, and excludes:

 

  1,032,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options outstanding under our Amended and Restated 2010 Equity Compensation Plan, or the 2010 Plan (including 746,341 shares that are subject to stock options that have been granted contingent upon stockholder approval), with a weighted-average exercise price of $2.28 per share, plus an additional 1,025,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted since September 30, 2020 under the 2010 Plan, with a weighted-average exercise price of $8.48 per share;

 

  2,300,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options outstanding under our 2018 Stock Incentive Plan, with a weighted-average exercise price of $1.50 per share;
     
  200,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options that were granted under our Amended and Restated 2010 Directors’ Equity Compensation Plan, or the 2010 Directors’ Plan, at a weighted-average exercise price of $2.83 per share;
     
  400,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants, with an exercise price of $3.00 per share;
     
  1,000,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the conversion of certain unsecured, partially convertible, promissory notes at a conversion price of $3.00 per share;
     
  128,126 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2010 Directors’ Plan; and
     
  275,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants to be issued to investors in this offering at an exercise price of $11.00 per share.

 

If the holders of outstanding options or warrants (including the Warrant offered in this offering) or other outstanding convertible securities exercise or convert those options or warrants or other outstanding convertible securities at prices below the public offering price, you will incur further dilution. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

 

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, utilizing a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we may offer shares of our common stock, preferred stock and/or warrants, either individually or in units, in one or more offerings, with a total value of up to $75,000,000. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we offer a type or series of securities under this prospectus, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering.

 

This prospectus does not contain all of the information included in the registration statement. For a more complete understanding of the offering of the securities, you should refer to the registration statement, including its exhibits. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. However, no prospectus supplement will offer a security that is not registered and described in this prospectus at the time of its effectiveness. This prospectus, together with the applicable prospectus supplements and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, includes all material information relating to the offering of securities under this prospectus. You should carefully read this prospectus, the applicable prospectus supplement, the information and documents incorporated herein by reference and the additional information under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information” before making an investment decision.

 

You should rely only on the information we have provided or incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement.

No dealer, salesperson or other person is authorized to give any information or to represent anything not contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You must not rely on any unauthorized information or representation. This prospectus is an offer to sell only the securities offered hereby, but only under circumstances and in jurisdictions where it is lawful to do so. You should assume that the information in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement is accurate only as of the date on the front of the document and that any information we have incorporated herein by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of a security.

 

We further note that the representations, warranties and covenants made by us in any agreement that is filed as an exhibit to any document that is incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus were made solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, including, in some cases, for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties to such agreements, and should not be deemed to be a representation, warranty or covenant to you.

To the extent there are inconsistencies between any prospectus supplement, this prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference, the document with the most recent date will control.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

The following is a summary of what we believe to be the most important aspects of our business and the offering of our securities under this prospectus. We urge you to read this entire prospectus, including the more detailed consolidated financial statements, notes to the consolidated financial statements and other information incorporated by reference from our other filings with the SEC or included in any applicable prospectus supplement. Investing in our securities involves risks. Therefore, carefully consider the risk factors set forth in any prospectus supplements and in our most recent annual and quarterly filings with the SEC, as well as other information in this prospectus and any prospectus supplements and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein, before purchasing our securities. Each of the risk factors could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities.

 

The Company

 

We are a vertically integrated and diversified branding, marketing and technology company with deep experience with over-the-counter, or OTC, consumer healthcare products, dietary supplements and other remedies. We are engaged in the research, development, manufacture, distribution, marketing and sale of OTC consumer healthcare products, dietary supplements and other remedies in the United States. This includes the development and marketing of dietary supplements under the TK Supplements® brand.

 

In August 2017, we formed ProPhase Digital Media, Inc., or PDM, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary. Our objective is for PDM to become an independent full-service direct marketing agency. PDM’s first initiative will be to market the TK Supplements® product line. If successful, this may lead to the marketing of other companies’ consumer products.

 

In addition, we also continue to actively pursue acquisition opportunities for other companies, technologies and products within and outside the consumer products industry.

 

Contract Manufacturing Services

 

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Pharmaloz Manufacturing Inc., or PMI, is a full service contract manufacturer and distributor of a broad range of non-GMO, organic and/or natural-based cough drops and lozenges and OTC drug and dietary supplement products. Our manufacturing facility, which is located in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, is registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is certified organic and kosher. PMI provides product development, pre-commercialization services, production, warehousing and distribution services for its customers.

 

TK Supplements® Product Line

 

We are also pursuing a series of new product development, pre-commercialization, and market testing initiatives in the OTC dietary supplement category. The TK Supplements® product line is comprised of three men’s health products: (i) Legendz XL® for sexual health, (ii) Triple Edge XL®, a daily energy booster plus testosterone support, and (iii) Super ProstaFlow PlusTM for prostate and urinary health. We recently completed a broad series of clinical studies which support important product claims which have now been incorporated in our product packaging and marketing communications. In addition to developing direct-to-consumer marketing strategies, we received initial product acceptance into a national chain drug retailer and to several regional retailers of our Legendz XL® product during fiscal 2017.

 

Direct Marketing Services

 

In August 2017, we formed PDM, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary. Our objective is for PDM to become an independent full-service direct marketing agency. PDM’s first initiative will be to market the TK Supplements® product line. If successful, this may lead to the marketing of other companies’ consumer products.

 

Corporate Information

 

We were initially organized in Nevada in July 1989. Effective June 18, 2015, we changed our state of incorporation from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks referenced below and described in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference into this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, before making an investment decision. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by the materialization of any of these risks. The trading price of our securities could decline due to the materialization of any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. This prospectus and the documents incorporated herein by reference also contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks described in our period reports filed with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus, including the documents that we incorporate by reference, may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

 

Forward-looking statements in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may” or other similar expressions in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. In particular, forward-looking statements include statements relating to future actions, prospective products and applications, customers, technologies, future performance or future financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

 

  The ability of our management to successfully implement our business plan and strategy;
     
  Our ability to compete effectively, including our ability to maintain and increase our markets and/or market share in the markets in which we do business;
     
  Our ability to fund our operations including the cost and availability of capital and credit;
     
  Our ability to grow our manufacturing business and operate it profitably;
     
  Potential disruptions in our ability to manufacture our products and those of others or our access to raw materials;
     
  Our ability to successfully develop and commercialize our existing products and new products;
     
  Changes in our retail and distribution customers’ strategic business plans including, but not limited to, (i) expansions, mergers, and/or consolidations, (ii) retail shelf space allocations for products within each outlet and in particular the healthcare category in which we compete, (iii) changes in their private label assortment and (iv) product selections, distribution allocation, merchandising programs and retail pricing of our products as well as competitive products;
     
  The general financial and economic uncertainty, fluctuations in consumer confidence and the strength of the United States economy, and their impacts on our business including demand for our products;
     
  Our ability to protect our proprietary rights;
     
  Our continued ability to comply with regulations relating to our current products and those we manufacture for others, any new products we develop, including our ability to effectively respond to changes in laws and regulations or the interpretation thereof including changing market rules and evolving federal, state and regional laws and regulations;
     
  Seasonal fluctuations in demand for products we manufacture at our manufacturing facility; and
     
  Our ability to attract, retain and motivate our key employees.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. The forward-looking statements are based upon management’s beliefs and assumptions and are made as of the date of this prospectus. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements included in this prospectus to conform such statements to actual results or changes in our expectations, except as otherwise required by law. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We cannot assure you that we will receive any proceeds in connection with securities that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus. Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we intend to use any net proceeds from the sale of securities under this prospectus for our operations and for other general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, our internal research and development programs, general working capital and possible future acquisitions. We have not determined the amounts we plan to spend on any of the areas listed above or the timing of these expenditures. As a result, our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds, if any, we receive in connection with securities offered pursuant to this prospectus for any purpose. Pending application of the net proceeds as described above, we may initially invest the net proceeds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities or apply them to the reduction of short-term indebtedness.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

General

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 51,000,000 shares, all with a par value of $0.0005 per share, 50,000,000 of which are designated as common stock and 1,000,000 of which are designated as preferred stock.

 

The following description of our capital stock and certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, or Bylaws, are summaries and are qualified by reference to our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws.

 

As of June 22, 2018, we had 11,534,571 shares of our common stock outstanding and zero shares of preferred stock outstanding. As of June 22, 2018, we also had outstanding options to acquire 2,819,500 shares of our common stock, having a weighted-average exercise price of $2.00 per share.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders, except on matters relating solely to terms of preferred stock. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock will be entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. The holders of our common stock will have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There will be no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Pursuant to the terms of our Certificate of Incorporation, our board of directors has the authority to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares constituting such series and the designation of such series, the voting powers, if any, of the shares of such series, and the preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of the shares of such series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. Although we have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock, could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the common stock, and could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change of control of us or an unsolicited acquisition proposal.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws

 

The provisions of Delaware law and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, could discourage or make it more difficult to accomplish a proxy contest or other change in our management or the acquisition of control by a holder of a substantial amount of our voting stock. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish, or could deter, transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interests or in our best interests. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in the policies formulated by the board of directors and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of our control. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.

 

5
 

 

Delaware Statutory Business Combinations Provision. We are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL. Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. For purposes of Section 203, a “business combination” is defined broadly to include a merger, asset sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder, and, subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior, did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.

 

Blank-Check Preferred Stock. Our board of directors is authorized to issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock, the rights of which will be determined at the discretion of the board of directors and that, if issued, could operate as a “poison pill” to dilute the stock ownership of a potential hostile acquirer to prevent an acquisition that our board of directors does not approve.

 

Special Meetings of Stockholders. Special meetings of the stockholders may be called at any time only by the Chairman of the board of directors or the board of directors, subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding.

 

No Written Consent of Stockholders. Our Bylaws provide that all stockholder actions are required to be taken by a vote of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting, and that stockholders may not take any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

 

Advance Notice Provisions for Stockholder Proposals and Stockholder Nominations of Directors. Our Bylaws provide that, for nominations to the board of directors or for other business to be properly brought by a stockholder before a meeting of stockholders, the stockholder must first have given timely notice of the proposal in writing to our Secretary. For an annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered not less than 90 days or more than 120 days prior to the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting.

 

Election and Removal of Directors. Except as may otherwise be provided by the DGCL, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with or without cause, at an annual meeting or a special meeting called for that purpose, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors. Vacancies on our board of directors resulting from the removal of directors and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors may be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office. This system of electing and removing directors may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, because it generally makes it more difficult for stockholders to replace a majority of our directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

 

Exclusive Jurisdiction. Our Bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine.”

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC.

 

Stock Market Listing

 

Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “PRPH.”

We may issue warrants to purchase shares of our common stock and/or preferred stock. We may offer warrants separately or together with one or more additional warrants, common stock, or preferred stock, or any combination of those securities in the form of units, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as warrant agent. The warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the certificates relating to the rights of the series of certificates and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of rights certificates or beneficial owners of rights. The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the rights to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the warrant to which any prospectus supplement may relate and the extent, if any, to which the general provisions may apply to the rights so offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. To the extent that any particular terms of the warrant, warrant agreement or warrant certificates described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms described below will be deemed to have been superseded by that prospectus supplement. We encourage you to read the applicable warrant agreement and warrant certificate for additional information before you decide whether to purchase any of our rights.

 

We will provide in a prospectus supplement the following terms of the warrants being issued:

 

  the specific designation and aggregate number of, and the price at which we will issue, the warrants;
     
  the currency or currency units in which the offering price, if any, and the exercise price are payable;
     
  the designation, amount and terms of the securities purchasable upon exercise of the warrants;
     
  if applicable, the exercise price for shares of our common stock and the number of shares of common stock to be received upon exercise of the warrants;
     
  if applicable, the exercise price for shares of our preferred stock, the number of shares of preferred stock to be received upon exercise, and a description of that series of our preferred stock;
     
  the date on which the right to exercise the warrants will begin and the date on which that right will expire or, if you may not continuously exercise the warrants throughout that period, the specific date or dates on which you may exercise the warrants;
     
  whether the warrants will be issued in fully registered form or bearer form, in definitive or global form or in any combination of these forms, although, in any case, the form of a warrant included in a unit will correspond to the form of the unit and of any security included in that unit;
     
  any applicable material U.S. federal income tax consequences;
     
  the identity of the warrant agent for the warrants and of any other depositaries, execution or paying agents, transfer agents, registrars or other agents;
     
  the proposed listing, if any, of the warrants or any securities purchasable upon exercise of the warrants on any securities exchange;
     
  if applicable, the date from and after which the warrants and the common stock and/or preferred stock will be separately transferable;
     
  if applicable, the minimum or maximum amount of the warrants that may be exercised at any one time;
     
  information with respect to book-entry procedures, if any;

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

 

The following description, together with the additional information that we include in any applicable prospectus supplements summarizes the material terms and provisions of the units that we may offer under this prospectus. While the terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any units that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any series of units in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any units offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below.

 

We will incorporate by reference from reports that we file with the SEC, the form of unit agreement that describes the terms of the series of units we are offering, and any supplemental agreements, before the issuance of the related series of units. The following summaries of material terms and provisions of the units are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the unit agreement and any supplemental agreements applicable to a particular series of units. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the particular series of units that we may offer under this prospectus, and the complete unit agreement and any supplemental agreements that contain the terms of the units.

 

General

 

We may issue units consisting of common stock, preferred stock and/or warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock in one or more series, in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each security included in the unit. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.

 

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units being offered, including:

 

  the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;
     
  any provisions of the governing unit agreement;
     
  the price or prices at which such units will be issued;
     
  the applicable United States federal income tax considerations relating to the units; and
     
  any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units.

 

The provisions described in this section, as well as those set forth in any prospectus supplement or as described under “Description of Capital Stock” and “Description of Warrants” will apply to each unit, as applicable, and to any common stock, preferred stock or warrant included in each unit, as applicable.

 

Unit Agent

Issuance in Series

 

We may issue units in such amounts and in such numerous distinct series as we determine.

 

Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Units

 

Each unit agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable unit agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any unit. A single bank or trust company may act as unit agent for more than one series of units. A unit agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable unit agreement or unit, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a unit may, without the consent of the related unit agent or the holder of any other unit, enforce by appropriate legal action its rights as holder under any security included in the unit.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

General Plan of Distribution

 

We may offer securities under this prospectus from time to time pursuant to underwritten public offerings, negotiated transactions, block trades or a combination of these methods. We may sell the securities (1) through underwriters or dealers, (2) through agents or (3) directly to one or more purchasers, or through a combination of such methods. We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at:

 

  a fixed price or prices, which may be changed from time to time;
     
  market prices prevailing at the time of sale;
     
  prices related to the prevailing market prices; or
     
  negotiated prices.

 

We may directly solicit offers to purchase the securities being offered by this prospectus. We may also designate agents to solicit offers to purchase the securities from time to time. We will name in a prospectus supplement any underwriter or agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities.

 

If we utilize a dealer in the sale of the securities being offered by this prospectus, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

 

If we utilize an underwriter in the sale of the securities being offered by this prospectus, we will execute an underwriting agreement with the underwriter at the time of sale, and we will provide the name of any underwriter in the prospectus supplement which the underwriter will use to make re-sales of the securities to the public. In connection with the sale of the securities, we, or the purchasers of the securities for whom the underwriter may act as agent, may compensate the underwriter in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions. The underwriter may sell the securities to or through dealers, and the underwriter may compensate those dealers in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions.

 

With respect to underwritten public offerings, negotiated transactions and block trades, we will provide in the applicable prospectus supplement information regarding any compensation we pay to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers. Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. We may enter into agreements to indemnify underwriters, dealers and agents against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments they may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

If so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will authorize underwriters or other persons acting as our agents to solicit offers by certain institutions to purchase securities from us pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on the date stated in the prospectus supplement. Each contract will be for an amount not less than, and the aggregate amount of securities sold pursuant to such contracts shall not be less nor more than, the respective amounts stated in the prospectus supplement. Institutions with whom the contracts, when authorized, may be made include commercial and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies, educational and charitable institutions and other institutions, but shall in all cases be subject to our approval. Delayed delivery contracts will not be subject to any conditions except that:

 

  the purchase by an institution of the securities covered under that contract shall not at the time of delivery be prohibited under the laws of the jurisdiction to which that institution is subject; and

 

9
 

 

  if the securities are also being sold to underwriters acting as principals for their own account, the underwriters shall have purchased such securities not sold for delayed delivery. The underwriters and other persons acting as our agents will not have any responsibility in respect of the validity or performance of delayed delivery contracts.

 

Shares of our common stock sold pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part will be authorized for quotation and trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The applicable prospectus supplement will contain information, where applicable, as to any other listing, if any, on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any securities market or other securities exchange of the securities covered by the prospectus supplement. We can make no assurance as to the liquidity of or the existence of trading markets for any of the securities.

 

In order to facilitate the offering of the securities, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities. This may include over-allotments or short sales of the securities, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than we sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the securities by bidding for or purchasing the applicable security in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if the securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.

 

In compliance with the guidelines of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or FINRA, the maximum consideration or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker dealer may not exceed 8% of the aggregate amount of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.

 

The underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in other transactions with us, or perform other services for us, in the ordinary course of their business.
