On February 21, 2007, Zion accepted subscription agreements in a total amount of $829,899 received from thirteen subscribers to its public offering of shares of common stock (the "offering") subject of Zion's Registration Statement on Form SB-2 as declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 26, 2006 (the "Registration Statement"). Pursuant to the accepted subscription agreements, the subscribers subscribed for 118,557 shares of Zion's common stock at $7.00 per share to be issued by Zion at the third closing of the offering (the "third closing").
The third closing took place on February 21, 2007. At the third closing Zion issued instructions to the escrow agent to disburse proceeds of the cash subscriptions in the amount of $764,208 to the company and issued 118,557 shares of its common stock to its transfer agent for distribution in accordance with the instructions of the subscribers. The remaining $65,691 of funds in the escrow account attributable to the subscriptions closed in the third closing were distributed at the third closing to Network 1 Financial Services, Inc., the underwriter of the offering, in accordance with the terms of the underwriting agreement as described in the Registration Statement, as follows: $43,794 in commissions and $21,897 of expense reimbursement. At the third closing, Zion also issued to the underwriter, in accordance with the terms of the underwriting agreement, an Underwriter's Warrant to purchase 3,128 shares of Zion common stock at a price of $8.75 per share to be exercisable for a period beginning six months after the final closing of the offering and expiring on December 28, 2009.
Zion will use the proceeds of the third closing for the purposes and in the amounts described in the Registration Statement.
