Item
3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On
August 12, 2021, Adhera Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional
investor (“Buyer”), pursuant to which the Company issued to Buyer its Original Issue Discount Secured Convertible Promissory
Note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $220,500 and warrants to purchase 800,000 shares of the common stock of the
Company (the “Warrants”) for which the Company received consideration of $210,000. In addition, pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Buyer and issued the Buyer 100,000 shares as a commitment
fee.
The
principal amount of the Note and all interest accrued thereon is payable one year from the issuance date. The Note provides for guaranteed
interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity, and is convertible into common stock of the Company at a price of $0.075
per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments in the event of certain corporate events as set forth in the Note, provided that if the
average closing price of the Company’s common stock during any three consecutive trading days is below $0.08, the conversion price
shall be reduced to 65% of the lowest trading price during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date.
In
addition to customary anti-dilution adjustments the Note provides, subject to certain limited exceptions, that if the Company issues
any common stock or common stock equivalents, as defined in the Note, at a per share price lower than the conversion price then in effect,
the conversion price will be reduced to the per share price at which such shares or common share equivalents were sold.
The
Note provides for various events of default similar to those provided for in similar transactions, including the failure to timely pay
amounts due thereunder.
The
Warrants are initially exercisable for a period of three years at a price of $0.095 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments
upon the occurrence of certain corporate events as set forth in the Warrant. The shares issuable upon conversion of the Note and exercise
of the Warrants are to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, for resale by the Buyer as provided in the Registration Rights
Agreement. If at any time after the six-month anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement, there is no effective registration statement
covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants at prevailing market prices by the Buyer, then the Warrant may
be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” in which event the Buyer would be entitled to receive a number of shares determined
in accordance with a customary formula as set forth in the Warrant.
The
Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement (the
“Registration Statement”) with respect to all shares which may be acquired upon conversion of the Note and exercise of the
Warrant and the commitment shares and to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective no later than 60 days after the date
of the issuance of the Note.
For
services rendered in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement the Company paid Carter, Terry & Company a cash fee of $20,000.
In addition, the Company reimbursed the Buyer $7,500 for legal expenses incurred in connection with the transaction.

9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
