Item 3.02
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Aspen Group, Inc. (the “Company”) closed on its offering to warrant holders whereby it issued 14,636,584 shares of common stock to the holders in exchange for their early exercise of warrants at the reduced exercise price of $0.155. One of the participating warrant holders is an executive officer of the Company. The Company received gross proceeds of $2,268,670. The offering closed in two tranches of 7,556,884 shares and 7,079,700 shares on April 23rd and April 29th, respectively.
Additionally, on April 29th, two warrant holders cashlessly exercised a total of 600,000 warrants and were issued 110,526 shares of common stock in connection with a reduced exercise price of $0.155. In contrast to the warrants held by the warrant holders above (except for the warrants which were exercised by the executive officer), these warrants were not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, the Company agreed to amend these warrants to provide for a cashless exercise right.
The shares were issued and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.
