Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On July 11, 2017, Nemus Bioscience, Inc. (the “Company”) provided an update with respect to the sale by the Company of 1,000,000 shares of a new Series E Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Shares”), to Schneider Finance LLC (the “Purchaser”), an affiliate of Schneider Brothers Ltd., a global closed investment fund, at a purchase price of $20.00 for each Preferred Share for aggregate gross proceeds of $20,000,000, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of May 3, 2017, by and between the Company and the Purchaser.

 

As described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 4, 2017, there are no conditions precedent or further obligations prior to the close of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. Pursuant to the Agreement, the purchase, sale and issuance of the Preferred Shares should have occurred as promptly as practicable after the execution of the Agreement, but not later than at 1:00 pm, Pacific Time, July 10, 2017. The Purchaser did not provide funding on July 10, 2017 as required by the Agreement.

 

The Company intends to continue to work with the Purchaser to close the transaction either directly with the Purchaser and its affiliates or through the exercise of the $20 million guaranty that provides for payment of the Purchase Price in full within 90 days of exercise. The guaranty provides that, in case of default by the Purchaser, SB Securities Ltd., an affiliate of Schneider Brothers Ltd., shall pay $20 million, upon written demand by the Company, and without any opposition.

 

The foregoing description of the guaranty is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the guaranty, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

On July 11, 2017, the Company issued a press release in connection with the foregoing. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference herein.
