Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On October 8, 2013, CEL-SCI Corporation (the "Company"), Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and Laidlaw & Company (UK) Ltd (the "Underwriters"), entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") to issue and sell 17,826,087 shares of the Company's common stock, as well as warrants to purchase an additional 17,826,087 shares of common stock. Each share of common stock is being sold together with a warrant to purchase one share for the combined purchase price of $1.00, minus underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company has granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to 2,673,913 additional shares of common stock and/or warrants to purchase up to 2,673,913 additional shares of common stock, for the combined purchase price of $1.00 for one share and one warrant, minus underwriting discounts and commissions, or the separate purchase prices per share or warrant, as applicable, set forth in the Underwriting Agreement. The option is exercisable, in whole or in part, for a period of 45 days after October 8, 2013.
