Item 1.01        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 10, 2012, iBio, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Underwriter an aggregate of 15,385,000 units (each a “Unit”, and collectively, the “Units”) at a public offering price of $0.65 per Unit in an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”). Each Unit consists of (i) one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) and (ii) 0.75 of one Warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase one share of Common Stock.

The Underwriters will purchase the Units at a seven-percent discount to the public offering price, for an aggregate discount of approximately $700,000.  The Company expects that the net proceeds of the Offering will be approximately $9.1 million, assuming no exercise of the Warrants, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company associated with the Offering.

The Warrants are exercisable at an initial exercise price of $0.88 per share beginning one year and one day from the date of issuance, and expire on the first anniversary of the date they first become exercisable.

The Warrants will be issued separately from the Common Stock included in the Units and may be transferred separately immediately after their issuance. The Warrants will not be listed on any national securities exchange or other trading market, and no trading market for such Warrants is expected to develop.

The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described in the Warrants.

The Warrants will be exercisable on a “cashless” basis in certain circumstances. In addition, in the event the Company is involved in a certain fundamental transaction that is (1) an all cash transaction, (2) a “Rule 13e-3 transaction” as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (3) with certain limited exceptions, a fundamental transaction involving a person or entity not traded on The New York Stock Exchange, Inc., The NYSE Amex, LLC, The NASDAQ Global Select Market, The NASDAQ Global Market or The NASDAQ Capital Market, the Company or any successor entity will, at the holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with or within forty-five (45) days after the consummation of the fundamental transaction, purchase such holder’s Warrants for an amount of cash equal to the value of the Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model.

This description of the Offering is a summary only, is not intended to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement and the form of Warrant, which are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The Underwriting Agreement contains representations and warranties that the parties made to, and solely for the benefit of, the other parties in the context of all of the terms and conditions thereof and in the context of the specific relationship between the parties. The provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, including the representations and warranties contained therein, are not for the benefit of any party other than the parties thereto and are not intended to be relied upon by investors and the public. Investors and the public should review the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for information regarding the Company.

The Units are being issued pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-175420) declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 28, 2011. The Offering is expected to close on January 13, 2012, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
 
 
 

 
 
On January 9, 2012, the Company issued a press release announcing that it intended to make a public offering of securities.
