Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 29, 2018, Evoke Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a warrant amendment (the “Warrant Amendment”) with each of the holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase common stock issued on July 25, 2016 and August 3, 2016 (the “Warrants”).  Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, among other things, the Holders’ right to require the Company to purchase the outstanding Warrants upon the occurrence of certain fundamental transactions will not apply if the fundamental transaction is a result of a transaction that has not been approved by the Company’s board of directors; provided that in such event the Holders shall be entitled to receive the same type or form of consideration (at the Black Scholes value) of the unexercised portion of the Warrant that is being offered to holders of the Company’s common stock in connection with such a fundamental transaction.  As a result of the Warrant Amendment, the Warrants will be equity-classified and the Company will no longer be required to account for the Warrants as a liability on its balance sheets.

 

This Warrant Amendment supersedes the amendment to the Warrants, dated March 22, 2018, previously filed by the Company

 

The foregoing summary of the Warrant Amendments is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the form of Warrant Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
