In December 2019, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement with the investors named therein. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the investors agreed to purchase approximately 2.1 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock in a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $1.9 million. Of this amount, approximately $1.1 million was received during 2019. The remaining $812,000 of proceeds were received and the related Common Stock was issued in January 2020. In accordance with current accounting guidance, the $812,000 of stock subscriptions receivable was included in stock subscriptions and other receivables in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019.

In February 2020, the Company executed agreements with two existing investors to purchase approximately 4.0 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock for aggregate gross proceeds to Navidea of approximately $3.4 million. The entire $3.4 million was received and the related 4,020,588 shares of Common Stock were issued during 2020.

On August 30, 2020, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with the Investors named therein, pursuant to which the Investors agreed to purchase from the Company up to $25.0 million in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. As of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have received only $25,000 of the $5.0 million that is currently owed under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. In accordance with current accounting guidance, the remaining $4.975 million of stock subscriptions receivable was included in common stock subscriptions receivable in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company determined that it is unlikely that the remaining $4.975 million will ever be collected. Accordingly, the common stock subscription receivable was reversed from the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021. See Note 2.

On August 31, 2020, the Company entered into a Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with Keystone pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to Keystone 150,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million. Pursuant to the Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, Keystone agreed to purchase Series D Preferred Stock in amounts to be determined by Keystone in one or more closings. The Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into a maximum of 5,147,000 shares of Common Stock. Of the $15.0 million, approximately $7.25 million was received and the related 72,500 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued through June 30, 2021. These 72,500 shares were subsequently converted into 3,778,789 shares of Common Stock through June 30, 2021. Of the $7.25 million received through June 30, 2021, $2.925 million was received prior to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In accordance with current accounting guidance, this $2.925 million was included in stock subscriptions receivable in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. See Notes 2 and 17.

On March 2, 2021, the Company entered into a Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with an existing accredited investor, John K. Scott, Jr. pursuant to which the Company issued to Mr. Scott in a private placement transaction 50,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million.

Under the Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Scott was granted a right of first offer with respect to future issuances of Company securities (the “Right of First Offer”); provided, however, that in no event shall Mr. Scott have such right if the acquisition of any of such securities would result in Mr. Scott beneficially holding more than 33.33% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock on an as-converted basis, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules thereunder (the “Share Cap”). In the event that Mr. Scott does not exercise the Right of First Offer, the Company will then be entitled to offer and sell the new securities to any third party at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those offered to Mr. Scott (a “Third Party Offering”). Pursuant to the Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Scott also has the option to purchase up to 33.33% of the new securities offered in a Third-Party Offering at the same price and upon the terms available to the other purchaser(s) (the “Preemptive Right”); provided, however, that in no event may Mr. Scott acquire new Company securities in a Third-Party Offering to the extent the acquisition thereof would violate the Share Cap. The Right of First Offer and the Preemptive Right will expire upon the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company.

In connection with the private placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale the maximum number of Series E Conversion Shares (as defined below) issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock. In the event that both (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially held by Mr. Scott falls below 20% of the outstanding Common Stock on an as-converted basis, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder, and (ii) Mr. Scott is an affiliate (as that term is defined under Rule 144) at the time of the Reload Request (as defined below), the Company, upon written request from Mr. Scott (the “Reload Request”), will be required prepare and file with the SEC one, and only one, additional registration statement covering the resale of those shares of Common Stock owned by Mr. Scott as of the date of the Reload Request that, as of such time, are not registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The securities issued in the offering have not been registered under the Securities Act, and until so registered the securities may not be offered or sold absent registration or availability of an applicable exemption from registration.

Except with respect to transactions which may adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock has no voting rights. Whenever the Company’s Board of Directors declares a dividend on Common Stock, each record holder of a share of Series E Preferred Stock on the record date set by the Board of Directors will be entitled to receive an amount equal to such dividend declared on one share of Common Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock (the “Series E Conversion Shares”) into which such share of Series E Preferred Stock could be converted on the record date, without regard to any conversion limitations in the Series E Preferred Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations (the “Series E Preferred Certificate”). Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock may convert some or all of the Series E Preferred Stock into Series E Conversion Shares at a fixed price of $2.30 per Series E Conversion Share, provided that the aggregate number of Series E Conversion Shares issued pursuant to the Series E Preferred Certificate cannot exceed the Share Cap without shareholder approval, which the Company is not required to seek. The Company has the right to redeem any outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock at a price of $110 per share at any time on or prior to the one-year anniversary of the issuance date, payable in cash. See Note 2.

Navidea intends to use the net proceeds from these transactions to fund its research and development programs, including continued advancement of its Phase 2b and Phase 3 clinical trials of Tc99m tilmanocept in patients with RA, and for general working capital purposes and other operating expenses. See Note 2.
