Rhea-AI Filing Summary

ProPhase Labs filed an amended 8-K to disclose material loan agreements executed on June 22, 2025. The company entered into two identical loan arrangements:

  • Two $500,000 non-convertible loans with: - CEO/Chairman Ted Karkus (related party transaction) - An unaffiliated investor
  • Key loan terms: - 20% original issue discount - 10% annual interest rate - 12-month maturity - Secured but subordinate to other potential lenders up to $6M - Prepayment allowed without penalty
  • Each loan includes 500,000 unvested warrants to purchase common stock at $0.60 exercise price, subject to shareholder approval of authorized share increase

The Audit Committee approved the related-party transaction with Karkus, who receives a $10,000 non-accountable expense reimbursement. The warrant issuance was made under Securities Act Section 4(a)(2) exemption and Rule 506 of Regulation D.

ProPhase Labs ha presentato un emendamento al modulo 8-K per comunicare accordi di prestito rilevanti stipulati il 22 giugno 2025. La società ha sottoscritto due accordi di prestito identici:

    • il CEO/Presidente Ted Karkus (operazione con parti correlate)
    • un investitore non affiliato
  • Termini principali del prestito:
    • Sconto originale del 20%

    • Possibilità di rimborso anticipato senza penali
  • Ogni prestito include 500.000 warrant non maturati per acquistare azioni ordinarie a un prezzo di esercizio di 0,60 $, soggetti all'approvazione degli azionisti per l'aumento delle azioni autorizzate

Il Comitato di Revisione ha approvato l’operazione con la parte correlata Karkus, che riceve un rimborso spese non rendicontabile di 10.000 $. L’emissione dei warrant è stata effettuata ai sensi dell’esenzione della Sezione 4(a)(2) del Securities Act e della Regola 506 del Regolamento D.

This is Amendment No. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by ProPhase Labs, Inc. on June 26, 2025 (“Original Form 8-K”). The Amendment No. 1 is being filed solely to include the material definitive agreements referenced in Item 1.01 of the Original Form 8-K. No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.

 

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 22, 2025, ProPhase Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into two identical loan agreements (the “Loan Agreements”) with Ted Karkus, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of the Board of Directors, and a second unaffiliated investor. For Mr. Karkus, the Loan Agreement constitutes a related party transaction under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

The material terms of the loan are a non-convertible loan in the amount of $500,000, with a 20% original issue discount. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 10% and matures twelve (12) months from the execution date. The Company will pay Mr. Karkus a $10,000 non-accountable expense and legal reimbursement. The loan is secured by the Company but subordinate to other potential lenders up to $6,000,000 and may be prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty. In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company also issued 500,000 unvested warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. Such warrants do not vest until a future shareholders’ approval of an increase in the Company’s authorized shares of common stock (the “Unvested Warrants”). The Unvested Warrants have an exercise price of $0.60.

 

The terms of the loan were reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors in accordance with the Company’s related-party transaction policy.

 

The foregoing summary of the Loan Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information provided in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The disclosure under Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference. The issuance of the Unvested Warrant was made in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Lender represented to the Company that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.
