Item 1.01    Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Securities Purchase Agreements

On January 17, 2024, Talphera, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Securities Purchase Agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreements”), with certain institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), relating to the issuance and sale of pre-funded warrants to the Purchasers in a two-tranche private placement (the “Private Placement”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $0.769 per share and an exercise price of $0.001 per share (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”).  The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately following each closing date of the Private Placement and have an unlimited term.

The terms of the Private Placement include:

(i)

the first tranche of the Private Placement, which closed on January 22, 2024, resulted in the aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $6.0 million excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants issued in such tranche.

(ii)

the second tranche of the Private Placement, which is a conditional purchase by the Purchasers subject to either (a) the satisfaction or waiver of achieving a pivotal trial milestone event (the “Pivotal Trial Milestone”) or (b) the satisfaction or waiver of the volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock for each of the immediately subsequent five (5) trading days following the Company’s announcement of its pivotal trial data being at least $0.92 per share (the “Price Milestone”), which will result in additional aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $10.0 million with respect to the Pivotal Trial Milestone and $2.0 million with respect to the Price Milestone, excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants issued in such closing.

In the first tranche of the Private Placement, the Company issued Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 7,792,208 shares of Common Stock.  In the second tranche of the Private Placement, the Company is expected to issue (i) in connection with achieving the Pivotal Trial Milestone, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 12,987,013 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) in connection with achieving the Price Milestone, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 2,597,402 shares of Common Stock.

Any of the conditions in the second tranche can be waived by each Purchaser.

The Securities Purchase Agreements contain customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and the Purchasers, indemnification rights and other obligations of the parties.

The forms of Securities Purchase Agreements and Pre-Funded Warrant are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.4 hereto, respectively. The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements and the Pre-Funded warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibits.

Item 2.02         Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On March 30, 2023, AcelRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and providing a corporate update (the “Release”). A copy of the Release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

The information contained in this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 shall be deemed to be “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section or Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The information contained in this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act made by the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed

Interim Review.

In connection with the Company’s year-end financial statement close and preparation of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, an error in the earnings per share calculations was identified in the interim financial statements (the “Prior Period Financial Statements”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (the “Interim Periods”). The error in the earnings per share calculation was due to the Company not properly applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share with respect to, or disclose that, the warrants issued in November 2021 are participating securities.  The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the three months ended March 31, 2022, did not require the application of the two-class method of calculating earnings per share, and therefore were not impacted by the issuance of the warrants in November 2021.

The error has no impact on the Company’s cash balance, liquidity, revenues, operating expenses, or total net income. Further, there is no impact to the Company’s balance sheet accounts or cash flows.

On March 30, 2023, the Company’s management and the Audit Committee of the Company determined that the Company’s Prior Period Financial Statements for the Interim Periods, should no longer be relied upon because of the error in the earnings per share calculations. The Company’s management and the Audit Committee concluded that it is appropriate to restate the Prior Period Financial Statements for the Interim Periods noted above. The correction of this error will be reflected in the Company’s financial statements to be filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Release includes, among other things, the following overview of Lowell Therapeutics, Inc. (“Lowell”), Niyad™ and LTX-608, and other information about the transaction:

“Lowell is a privately held company developing Niyad, a regional anticoagulant for the dialysis circuit during continuous renal replacement therapy for acute kidney injury patients in the hospital. Niyad is being studied under an investigational device exemption, or IDE, and has received Breakthrough Device Designation status from the FDA. While not approved for commercial use in the U.S., the active drug component of Niyad, nafamostat, has been approved in Japan and South Korea as a regional anticoagulant for the dialysis circuit, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and acute pancreatitis. Niyad is a lyophilized formulation of nafamostat, a broad-spectrum, synthetic serine protease inhibitor, with anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, and potential anti-viral activities. The second intended indication for Niyad is as a regional anticoagulant for the dialysis circuit for chronic kidney disease patients undergoing intermittent hemodialysis in dialysis centers. LTX-608 is Lowell’s proprietary nafamostat formulation for direct IV infusion for the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).”

“Certain of Lowell’s stockholders, representing a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Lowell, have signed agreements to vote in favor of the transaction, subject to certain conditions.”
