Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 27 - Arno Therapeutics, Inc. concluded a $12.71 million private placement of 8% senior convertible debentures on Nov. 26, according to an 8-K filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The three-year debentures are initially convertible into common stock at $0.30 per share. The company may also force conversion under certain circumstances.

The investors also received two series of warrants. The five-year warrants are exercisable for 42.35 million shares at $0.50 per share, and the 18-month warrants are exercisable for 42.35 shares at $0.30 per share.

The strike prices are identical and a 40% discount to the Nov. 23 closing share price of $0.50. The conversion price is a 40% discount to that price.

Proceeds will be used for research and development activities for the onapristone and AR-42 oncology therapeutic program.
