Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
On March 10, 2020, Aytu BioScience, Inc. (the
“Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional
investor (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue, in a registered direct offering,
an aggregate of (i) 4,450,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) at a purchase price per
share of $1.15 (the “Shares”) and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 3,376,087 shares of Common Stock (the
“Pre-Funded Warrants”) at an effective price of $1.15 per share ($1.1499 paid to the Company upon the closing of the
offering and $0.0001 to be paid upon exercise of such Pre-Funded Warrants), for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately
$9.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company (the “Registered Offering”).
The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately upon issuance and remain exercisable until exercised in full. The Shares and
Pre-Funded Warrants are being offered by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was
originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 22, 2017, as amended, and was
declared effective on December 1, 2017 (File No. 333-221735) (the “Registration Statement”) and a prospectus supplement
thereunder. The Registered Offering is expected to close on or about March 13, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions.
Pursuant to a letter agreement dated as of
January 3, 2020, as amended, the Company engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”) to act as its exclusive
placement agent in connection with the Registered Offering. The Company has agreed to pay Wainwright 7.5% of the aggregate gross
proceeds in the Registered Offering, excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Purchase Warrants. The Company also
agreed to pay Wainwright a management fee of 1.0% of the aggregate proceeds in the Registered Offering and to reimburse Wainwright
for certain expenses in connection with the Registered Offering in an aggregate amount not to exceed $50,000. In addition, the
Company agreed to pay Wainwright $40,000 for non-accountable expenses and $12,900 for clearing fees. The Company also agreed to
issue to the placement agent (or its designees) warrants to purchase up to 508,696 shares of common stock (the “Placement
Agent Warrants”) as part of the compensation payable to it. The Placement Agent Warrants will be substantially on the same
terms as the Pre-Funded Warrants, except that the Placement Agent Warrants are not pre-funded, will have an exercise price of $1.4375
per share and will expire five years from the effective date of the Registered Offering.
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase
Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Placement Agent’s Warrants are not complete and are qualified in their entireties
by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Placement Agent’s Warrants, copies

incorporated by reference herein. On March 11, 2020, the Company also issued a press release announcing the Registered Offering.
A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
