Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 26, 2026, Avalon GloboCare Corp. (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain institutional investors (“the “Purchasers”) for the issuance and sale in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of (i) 490,197 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per shares (“Common Stock”) at a purchase price of $0.51 per Share; (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) at a purchase price of 0.5099 per Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,882,353 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”); (iii) Series A-1 warrants to purchase up to 6,372,550 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A-1 Warrants,” and the shares issuable upon exercise thereof, the “Series A-1 Warrant Shares”) and (iv) Series A-2 warrants to purchase up to 6,372,550 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A-2 Warrants,” together with the Series A-1 Warrants, the “Warrants”) and the shares issuable upon exercise thereof, the “Series A-2 Warrant Shares,” together with the Series A-1 Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”). The Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”
Each Warrant has an exercise price of $0.51 per share. The Warrants are not exercisable until the Stockholders of the Company approve the issuance of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares upon the exercise thereof (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Series A-1 Warrants will expire five (5) years following the date of Stockholder Approval. The Series A-2 Warrants will expire eighteen (18) months following the date of Stockholder Approval. A holder may not exercise any portion of the Common Warrants to the extent the Purchaser would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise. A holder may increase or decrease this percentage with respect to either the Series A-1 Common Warrants or the Series A-2 Common Warrants to a percentage not in excess of 9.99%, except that any such increase shall require at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.
The Prefunded Warrants are immediately exercisable and may be exercised at a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Common Stock at any time until all of the Prefunded Warrants are exercised in full. A holder may not exercise any portion of the Common Warrants to the extent the Purchaser would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise. A holder may increase or decrease this percentage with respect to Prefunded Warrants to a percentage not in excess of 9.99%, except that any such increase shall require at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.
As compensation to H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as the exclusive placement agent in connection with the Private Placement (the “Placement Agent”), the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Private Placement, plus a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the Private Placement and reimbursement of certain expenses and legal fees. The Company also issued warrants to designees of the Placement Agent (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase up to 5.0% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock placed in the Offering, equating to 318,628 shares of Common Stock (the “Placement Agent Warrant Shares”). The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Series A-1 Warrants, except that the Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price equal to $0.6375 per share.
The Engagement Letter and the Purchase Agreement contain customary representations and warranties, agreements and obligations, conditions to closing and termination provisions.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), dated as of February 26, 2026, with the Purchaser, pursuant to which the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) registering the resale of Shares and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Common Warrants no later than 45 days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, and to use best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as promptly as practical thereafter, and in any event no later than 75 days following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement (or 90 days following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement in the event of a “full review” by the Securities and Exchange Commission).
The Private Placement closed on February 27, 2026. The net proceeds to the Company from the Private Placement are expected to be approximately $2.8 million, after deducting placement agent fees and expenses and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds received from the Private Placement for continuing operating expenses and working capital.
