Digital Domain Media Group (NYSE: DDMG) entered into a purchase agreement, as of June 7, 2012, to sell 1.5 million shares of the company's common stock at $7.00 per share and warrants to purchase an additional 600,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $8.05 per share in a private placement to a select group of institutional investors. The transaction was consummated on June 8, 2012, and gross proceeds from the offering totaled $10.5 million. The company will use the proceeds primarily for general corporate purposes.
