Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information set forth in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

 

Item 5.03.

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On January 5, 2024, Eiger BioPharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), effected a one-for-thirty reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”). As previously disclosed, at its special meeting of stockholders held on December 28, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio between one-for-ten (1:10) and one-for-thirty-five (1:35), inclusive, as determined by the Board in its discretion. On December 28, 2023, the Board approved the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of one-for-thirty. Following such approval, the Company filed an amendment to its Charter (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split, with an effective time of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on January 5, 2024 (the “Effective Time”). On January 8, 2024, the Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis under a new CUSIP number, 28249U204.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock are instead entitled to a cash payment equal to the fraction multiplied by the closing price of the Common Stock, as reported by Nasdaq, on the last trading day prior to the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split.

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 3.1

CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT

TO THE

AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

OF

EIGER BIOPHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

Eiger BioPharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, hereby certifies as follows:

FIRST: The original Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 24, 2012, under the name Celladon Corporation.

SECOND: The Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation in the form set forth in the following resolution has been duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 228 and 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware by the directors and stockholders of the Corporation:

“RESOLVED: Article IV.D of the of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation is hereby deleted and amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

D.  Upon the filing and effectiveness of this Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, each thirty (30) shares of common stock either issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation in treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

No fractional interest in a share of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon the Reverse Stock Split. All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon the Reverse Stock Split held by a holder prior to the Reverse Stock Split shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of any fractional share. Any fractional share resulting from such aggregation upon the Reverse Stock Split shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Each holder who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Common Stock upon the Reverse Stock Split (after aggregating all fractions of a share to which such stockholder would otherwise be entitled) shall, in lieu thereof, be entitled to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the fraction to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price of the Corporation’s Common Stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global Market on the last trading day prior to the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split. The Corporation shall not be obliged to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of the Reverse Stock Split unless and until the certificates evidencing the shares held by a holder prior to the Reverse Stock Split are either delivered to the Corporation or its transfer agent, or the holder notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates.”

THIRD: The foregoing amendment has been duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 228 and 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware by the directors and stockholders of the Corporation.

FOURTH: The Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation so adopted reads in full as set forth above and is hereby incorporated herein by this reference. All other provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation remain in full force and effect.

FIFTH: The foregoing amendment shall be effective as of 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 5, 2024.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to be signed by a duly authorized officer on this 28th day of December, 2023.
