Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously reported, on May 3, 2017, we closed on a common stock and warrant public offering, pursuant to which we issued, among other things, Series B Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,428,605 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, with an exercise price of $5.25 per share of common stock. On September 20, 2019, we amended several Series B Warrants representing the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,224,263 shares of our common stock and held by several of the investors in that underwritten offering (each a “Holder”) to include a provision providing that we, with the consent of the Holder, may voluntarily reduce the exercise price of the Holder’s Series B Warrant. As of the time of this filing we have not reduced the exercise price of any Holder’s Series B Warrant and, to the extent in the future we elect to reduce the exercise price of a Holder’s Series B Warrant, if any, we intend to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission an additional Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing such exercise price reduction.

 

The form of Amendment to the Series B Warrant is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
