Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 14 - Hana Biosciences Inc. raised another $1.26 million in a $100 million private placement of series A-1 convertible preferred stock with Warburg Pincus and Deerfield Management on Sept. 10, according to an 8-K filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It raised $40 million on June 7.

The company also said it revised the terms of the preferreds.

The company is selling the preferreds at $100.00 apiece. It sold 400,000 preferreds in the first tranche and 12,562 preferreds in the second.
