Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 11, 2024, Peraso Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Ian McWalter, a member of the Company’s board of directors, pursuant to which the Company sold and Mr. McWalter purchased 100,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price per share of $1.27, for aggregate gross proceeds of $127,000 (the “Private Sale”).

 

The Shares sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement were issued as restricted securities as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and do not contain any registration rights. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Sale for general corporate purposes, including research and development and working capital.

 

The foregoing description of the terms of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

To the extent required, the disclosure under Item 1.01 above is hereby incorporated in this Item 3.02 by reference.

 

The Shares were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act because such issuance did not involve a public offering, Mr. McWalter took the Shares for investment and not resale, the Company took appropriate measures to restrict transfer, and Mr. McWalter is a sophisticated investor. The Shares are subject to transfer restrictions, and the book-entry records evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The Shares were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

Exhibit 10.1

 

STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 

This STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 11th day of June, 2024, by and between Peraso Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Ian McWalter, an individual (the “Purchaser”).

 

WHEREAS, the Purchaser desires to purchase, and the Company desires to sell, an aggregate of 100,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value US$0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and conditions hereof; and

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the Purchaser and the Company hereby agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1: SALE OF THE SHARES

 

1.1 Sale of the Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at the Closing, the Company will sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser will purchase from the Company, the Shares for an aggregate purchase price equal to US$127,000 (the “Purchase Price”).

 

SECTION 2: CLOSING DATE; DELIVERY

 

2.1 Closing Date. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Shares (the “Closing”) shall occur June 13th, 2024. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser, using customary book-entry procedures, the Shares, and the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Company by wire transfer funds in the full amount of the Purchase Price for the Shares being purchased.

 

2.2 Restrictive Legend. The Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and will bear a restrictive legend.

 

SECTION 3: REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER

 

The undersigned Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

3.1  Restricted Securities. None of the Shares are registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares have not been recommended by any U.S. Federal or State securities commission or regulatory authority and have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that the offering and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and, if deemed advisable by the Company, the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, based, in part, upon the representations, warranties and agreements of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that the Shares may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom.

 

 

 

 

3.2  Experience. The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Company and of making an informed investment decision. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for the Purchaser’s current needs and possible future contingencies and the Purchaser has no need, and anticipates no need in the foreseeable future, to sell the Shares for which the Purchaser subscribes. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risks of this investment and, consequently, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser is able to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of the Purchaser’s entire investment in the Company in the event such loss should occur. Except as otherwise indicated herein, the Purchaser is the sole party in interest as to its investment in the Company, and it is acquiring the Shares solely for investment for the Purchaser’s own account and has no present agreement, understanding or arrangement to subdivide, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Shares subscribed for to any other person.

 

3.3  Investment; Access to Data. The Purchaser has carefully reviewed and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, a purchase of the Shares and an investment in the Company. The Purchaser has been furnished materials relating to the Company, the private placement of the Common Stock or anything else that it has requested and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and obtain any additional information which the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense. Representatives of the Company have answered all inquiries that the Purchaser has made of them concerning the Company, or any other matters relating to the formation and operation of the Company and the offering and sale of the Common Stock. The Purchaser has not been furnished any offering literature other than the materials that the Company may have provided at the request of the Purchaser; and the Purchaser has relied only on such information furnished or made available to the Purchaser by the Company as described in this Section. The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof.

 

3.4  Authorization. (a) This Agreement, upon execution and delivery thereof, will be a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and moratorium laws and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

 

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement and compliance therewith and the purchase and sale of the Shares will not result in a violation of and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of, any of the terms of, or constitute a default under, any provision of state or Federal law to which the Purchaser is subject, or any mortgage, indenture, agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation or other restriction to which the Purchaser is a party or by which the Purchaser is bound, or result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Purchaser pursuant to any such term.

3.5  Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended either because: (i) the Purchaser is a natural person and (A) the Purchaser’s net worth, or joint net worth with Purchaser’s spouse, exceeds $1,000,000,1 or (B) the Purchaser had an individual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with Purchaser’s spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of the two most recent years, and the Purchaser has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same level of income in the current year, or (ii) the Purchaser is an executive officer, director, manager or general partner of the Company or the Company’s general partner (executive officers include the president, any vice president in charge of a principal business unit, division or function (such as sales, administration or finance), and any other officer who performs a policy making function for the Company), or (iii) the Purchaser is an entity that otherwise meets the definition of “accredited investor” set forth in Rule 501(a).

 

SECTION 4: MISCELLANEOUS

 

4.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

 

4.2 Survival. The terms, conditions and agreements made herein shall survive the Closing.

 

4.3 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto.

 

4.4 Entire Agreement; Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement constitutes the entire and full understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated, except by a written instrument signed by all the parties hereto.

 

4.5 Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together, shall constitute one instrument.

1For purposes of calculation of Purchaser’s net worth in Clause (A), (i) such person’s primary residence shall not be included as an asset; (ii) indebtedness secured by Purchaser’s primary residence, up to the estimated fair market value of such primary residence as of the date hereof, shall not be included as a liability (except that if the amount of such indebtedness outstanding as of the date hereof exceeds the amount outstanding as of 60 days before the date hereof, other than as a result of the acquisition of such primary residence, the amount of such excess shall be included as a liability) and (iii) indebtedness that is secured by Purchaser’s primary residence in excess of the estimated fair market value of such primary residence as of the date hereof, shall be included as a liability.
