EXHIBIT 10.1
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This agreement is dated January 31, 2001 between Amro International
S.A. ("Purchaser"), and NeoTherapeutics, Inc. ("Company"), whereby the parties
agree as follows:
The Purchaser shall buy and the Company agrees to sell $3,500,000 worth
of shares ("Shares") of the Company's Common Stock at a price per share equal to
85% of the average of the volume-weighted average prices ("VWAPs") of the common
stock on the five trading days prior to the Closing Date. However, in no event
shall the Company issue shares based upon any daily VWAP below $2.00 (the
"Threshold Price"). In the event that any one or more daily VWAPs within the
five trading day period shall be less than the Threshold Price, then the Company
shall not sell and the Purchaser shall not purchase a dollar amount of Shares
equal to one-fifth of the purchase commitment for each such day that the VWAP is
below such Threshold Price. By way of example only, if the VWAP is below the
Threshold Price on one of five days, then the aggregate purchase price shall be
$2,800,000, priced at 85% of the average of the VWAPs for the included four
days. Funding of the purchase shall occur on the Closing Date. The Closing Date
shall be February 5, 2001. Volume-weighted average price shall be as reported by
Bloomberg, LP for each trading day of 9:30-4:00. The Shares have been registered
on a Form S-3, File No. 333-53108, which registration statement has been
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Shares, when
delivered, will be free of restrictive legends and will be free of any resale
restrictions. The Company shall deliver a prospectus supplement on Form 424
(b)(2) regarding the sale of the Shares prior to funding as a condition to the
effectiveness of this Agreement. Prior to delivery of such prospectus supplement
this Agreement shall be an indication of interest only.
The Purchaser shall wire the purchase amount to the Company to the
account set forth below.
