Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 27, 2017, Ampio Pharmaceuticals, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Waiver and Consent Letter Agreement (the “Waiver and Consent Agreement”) with CVI Investments, Inc. (“CVI”), amending the terms of warrants previously issued to CVI on September 1, 2016. Pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated August 29, 2016, the Company had issued 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Original Warrants”) with an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the “Warrant Exercise Price”) to CVI, at a combined offering price of $0.75 per share of Common Stock and accompanying Original Warrants.

Under the Waiver and Consent Agreement, CVI has waived the right to have the Warrant Exercise Price reduced and the number of Shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant increased in the event the Company secures any financing, including debt, which includes issuing or selling shares of Common Stock for a price per share less than the Warrant Exercise Price. CVI also waived the prohibition on the Company’s ability to issue or sell shares of its Common Stock, options or convertible securities at a price which varies or may vary with the market price of the Common Stock or pursuant to an equity credit line or similar “at-the-market” offering. The waivers are permanent.

In return, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of the Original Warrants from $1.00 per share of Common Stock to $0.40 per share of Common Stock and to not issue or sell any shares of its capital stock for a period of 10 trading days following the execution of the Waiver and Consent Agreement. All other terms of the Original Warrants remain the same.

The foregoing summary of the terms of the Waiver and Consent Agreement is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, such Waiver and Consent Agreement attached herewith as Exhibit 10.1, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.
