Item 3.
|
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
|
On April 4, 2019, the
Company completed the business combination of Helomics Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Precision (“Merger
Sub”), with Helomics Holding Corporation (“Helomics”) in accordance with the terms of the Amended
and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 26, 2018 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the parties to the Merger Agreement consummated a forward-triangular merger, whereby
Helomics merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Precision (the “Merger”).
Prior to consummation of the Merger, Precision held 25% of the outstanding voting stock of Helomics; effective on the effective
date, Precision acquired ownership of 100% of the capital stock of Helomics, which is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Precision.
As consideration for
the Merger, on the Effective Date and at the effective time of the Merger, all outstanding shares of Helomics not already held
by Precision were converted into the right to receive a proportionate share of 4.0 million shares of newly-issued shares of the
Common Stock and 3.5 million shares of newly-issued Series D preferred stock of the Company (“Series D Preferred Stock”
and, together with Common Stock, “Merger Shares”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, and pursuant to
an Offer to Exchange dated February 13, 2019 and included in Precision’s Form S-4 Registration Statement under the Securities
Act of 1933, as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on January 24, 2019 (SEC File No. 333-228031) (the
“Registration Statement”), Precision made an offer to issue (the “Exchange Offer”) to holders of
certain promissory notes of Helomics (the “Helomics Notes Payable”) and accompanying warrants to purchase Helomics
common stock (the “Helomics Warrants”) (a) shares of Common Stock of Precision in exchange for the tendered
Helomics Notes Payable and (b) warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of Precision at an exercise price of $1.00 per share
(“Precision Warrants”) in exchange for the Helomics Warrants held by such holders. The issuance occurred on
the Effective Date and at the effective time of the Merger. In connection with the Exchange Offer, Precision issued an aggregate
8,637,323 (or 86,373 shares of Common Stock on a post-Reverse Stock basis) shares of Common Stock of Precision to the holders of
the Helomics Notes Payable, which such amount is equal to all of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on all
of the Helomics Notes Payable, calculated as of the Effective Date, divided by $1.00 per share of Common Stock.
Additionally, in connection
with the Exchange Offer, Precision issued an aggregate 14,245,063 Precision Warrants to (a) all holders of Helomics Notes Payable
who accepted the Exchange Offer and (b) three holders of Helomics Notes Payable who did not accept the Exchange Offer, but executed
a note extension agreement with Precision, pursuant to which such holders agreed to accept the terms of the Exchange Offer with
respect to their Helomics Warrants. The amount of Precision Warrants issued was determined according to the following formula:
0.6 multiplied by all Helomics Warrants held by a tendering holder of Helomics Warrants. In addition, Precision issued an aggregate
597,000 warrants to purchase Precision Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share in exchange for 995,000 warrants to
purchase Helomics Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01per share. None of the amounts referenced in this paragraph are adjusted
to reflect the effects of the Reverse Split. None of the amounts referenced in this paragraph are adjusted to reflect the effects
of the Reverse Split.

Other than the transactions
described under Item 3 and as described below, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the securities of the
Company in the past sixty days. On March 27, 2019, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with Dawson James pursuant
to which Dawson James served as placement agent on a “best efforts” basis for a registered direct offering in which
the Company sold 1,478,750 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase up to 739,377 shares of Common Stock (the “Offering”).
The Common Stock and warrants were sold in units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of one share of Common
Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 of a share of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per whole share. The warrants
are exercisable at any time on or after the date of issuance and expire on the fifth anniversary of issuance. The Units were sold
at a price of $0.80 per Unit, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $1.183 million, before deducting placement agent fees
and estimated offering expenses. The net offering proceeds to the Company, after deducting the placement agent’s fees and
other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are expected to be approximately $1.02 million. The closing of the Offering
occurred on March 29, 2019. Pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Dawson James a cash fee equal
to 8% of the aggregate purchase price of the Units sold. The Company also agreed to reimburse Dawson James for its expenses in
connection with this offering, up to $30,000, and agreed to reimburse its reasonable “blue sky” fees and expenses,
of $5,000. The Placement Agency Agreement contains indemnification, representations, warranties, conditions precedent to closing
and other provisions customary for transactions of this nature. Also pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company, in
connection with the offering, entered into Unit Purchase Option agreements, dated as of March 29, 2019, pursuant to which the Company
granted Dawson James or its assigns the right to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of 73,937 Units (which represents
5% of the Units sold to investors in the Offering) at an exercise price equal to 125% of the public offering price of the Units
in the offering, or $1.00 per Unit. The Unit Purchase Options will expire on March 27, 2024. The securities in the Offering were
offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s “shelf” registration statement (File No. 333-213766), which was declared
effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on October 4, 2016.
On October 1, 2019,
the Company entered into another Placement Agency Agreement with Dawson James (the “October 2019 Placement Agency Agreement”)
pursuant to which Dawson James and Paulson Investment Company, LLC served as placement agents on a “best efforts” basis
for a public offering in which the Company sold 6,335,537 shares of the Common Stock. The closing of this offering occurred on
October 4, 2019. Pursuant to the October 2019 Placement Agency Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the placement agents a cash
fee equal to 9% of the aggregate purchase price of the units sold. The Company also agreed to reimburse the placement agenta for
certain expenses in connection with the offering, up to $35,000. In addition, the Company granted warrants to the placement agents
to purchase up to 633,553 shares of Common Stock, equal to 10% of the aggregate number of shares sold in the offering. The warrants
have an exercise price of $0.625 (or 125% of the public offering price per share) include a cashless exercise provision and will
have piggy-back registration rights. The securities in the offering were offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s “shelf”
registration statement (File No. 333-213766), which was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
on October 4, 2016.
