Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 19, 2016, CytoDyn Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its existing Consulting Agreement with Denis R. Burger, Ph.D., dated February 21, 2014, as previously amended November 3, 2014 (the “Consulting Agreement”).

The Amendment names Dr. Burger, who is currently a member of the Board of Directors, to the non-executive position of Chief Science Officer and increases Dr. Burger’s advisory responsibilities in that capacity. The Amendment also increases the compensation payable to Dr. Burger under the Consulting Agreement to $20,000 in cash per month, which is in addition to any fees that Dr. Burger currently earns as a director. The Amendment was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.

The Company also became obligated to issue warrants to purchase an aggregate of 519,002 shares of Common Stock, along with a cash payment of approximately $0.4 million, as a fee to the placement agent in certain of the transactions. All of the foregoing warrants have a five-year term, running from their respective dates of issuance, and are immediately exercisable.

In addition, on December 21, 2015 and January 4, 2016, the Company issued to certain third-party consultants warrants to purchase an aggregate of 290,000 shares of Common Stock, as consideration for services provided to the Company. One warrant covering 50,000 shares has an exercise price of $0.81 per share and a 10-year term, vesting in two equal semi-annual installments beginning on May 21, 2016. The other warrant covering 240,000 shares has an exercise price of $0.92 per share and a 10-year term, vesting in four equal quarterly installments commencing on January 4, 2016. The Company relied on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act in connection with the foregoing transactions.
