The Company received approximately $12.4 million in gross proceeds from the private placement offering of convertible debentures and warrants to purchase common stock before deducting offering expenses and placement agent’s commissions. The first closing occurred on July 7, 2021 and the second on August 13, 2021.

Wayne Wasserberg, CEO of Sysorex, commented, “Sysorex intends to deploy the net proceeds from the offering to increase its data center capacity, grow its management team and to further its business objectives in the expansion of its Ethereum mining business and implementation of its Ethereum 2.0 strategies. The Company also plans to advance decentralized finance (DeFi) and Non-fungible token (NFT) Ethereum Blockchain opportunities.”
