Item 1.01

As
previously reported, from November 10, 2021 through November 17,
2021, Quantum Computing Inc. (the “Company”), conducted a private
placement offering (the “Private Placement”) pursuant to securities
purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with 7 accredited
investors (each, an “Investor” and collectively the “Investors”),
whereby the Investors had agreed to purchase from the Company an
aggregate of 1,545,459 shares of the Company’s newly created Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the
“Series A Preferred Stock”) and warrants (the “Warrants”. and
together with the Series A Preferred Stock, the “Securities”) to
purchase 1,545,459 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”).
On December
16, 2021, the Company and the Investors entered into amendments to
the securities purchase agreement (the “Amended Purchase
Agreements”) and the Warrants (the “Warrant Amendment”) to clarify
that the Company shall not effect the conversion of any of the
Series A Preferred Stock, or the exercise of any Warrants held by
an Investor, or pay any dividend in the form of Common Stock, and
an Investor shall not have the right to convert any of the Series A
Preferred Stock or exercise Warrants held by such Investor and any
such conversion or exercise shall be null and void and treated as
if never made, if to the extent that after giving effect to such
payment of dividend in the form of Common Stock, or such conversion
or exercise of such Warrant, the aggregate amount of Common Stock
issuable to the Investor would exceed, when added to the previously
issued shares of Common Stock, the requirements of Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5635(d) (“Nasdaq 19.99% Cap”).

Warrant Amendment does not purport to be complete and are qualified

Private Placement, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations
(the “Certificate of Designations”) for the Series A Preferred
Stock with the Secretary of State of Delaware.
On
December 16, 2021, the Company filed a Certificate of
Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Certificate of
Designations, to amend the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment (i) Section 2 of the

authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock from 2,000,000 shares
to 1,550,000; and (ii) Section 5(d) of the Certificate of
