On December 17, 2018, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Andrew I. Sealfon and other sellers set forth in the Agreement and purchasers listed in the Agreement in a private placement transaction.  Pursuant to that agreement, we agreed to file a resale registration statement.  The existing stockholders party to the agreement included Andrew I. Sealfon and Paul Mark Baker, then directors of RMS, together with certain members of their respective family members.  Andrew I. Sealfon, Paul Mark Baker, Andrea Baker, Brad Sealfon and Mary Sealfon, existing stockholders party to the agreement, received an aggregate of $12,218,977 in connection with the transaction. One of the purchasers was Horton Freedom, L.P., an affiliate of Horton Capital Partners, LLC, who paid $3,842,036 in connection with the transaction.  At the time of the purchase, Horton Capital Partners, LLC beneficially owned more than 5% of our outstanding common stock. Joseph M. Manko, Jr. is the managing member of Horton Capital Partners, LLC and has served as a director of the Company since May 2016.

 

In connection with the purchase agreement, also on December 17, 2018, we entered into an Agreement Regarding Stock Sale with Mr. Sealfon and a separate Agreement Regarding Stock Sale with Dr. Baker.  Pursuant to these Separation Agreements, Mr. Sealfon and Dr. Baker tendered their respective resignations from our Board of Directors effective with the first closing of the transaction under the purchase agreement, which occurred on December 18, 2018.  Each of these separation agreements provides for the mutual general release by us, on the one hand, and each of Mr. Sealfon and Dr. Baker, on the other hand, of all claims against the other arising or occurring on or before the date thereof, subject to certain exceptions. Pursuant to the agreement with Mr. Sealfon, Mr. Sealfon has agreed to certain non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions for a period of six months after the first closing.
