New Issue: Cell Therapeutics negotiates $12 million equity line

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., July 30 - Cell Therapeutics, Inc. arranged a $12 million equity line of credit with Midsummer Investment, Ltd. on July 29, according to an 8-K filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a company news release.

The stock would be issued when Midsummer exercises a warrant issued by the company.

The company has the right to raise cash under the line of credit in exchange for common shares on a periodic basis. The number and price per share of each draw will be determined by a formula based on the trading volume and a discount to the volume-weighted average price of the company's common stock, as reported by the Milan Stock Exchange, over a certain period of trading days.

The first draw is expected to take place in August. Additional draws will occur until the warrant is exercised in full for 27,812,606 common shares, or $12 million, or the company elects to suspend future closings.

The company may reactivate the line of credit following any such suspension.

Cell Therapeutics is a Seattle-based developer of cancer treatments.
