Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 18, 2020, Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Raymond James & Associates, Inc., as representative for the several underwriters listed therein (“Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriters in an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) an aggregate of 16,129,032 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). Each share of Common Stock is being offered and sold to the public at a public offering price of $0.62 per Share.

The Company intends to use the aggregate net proceeds of the offering primarily for general corporate purposes, which include, without limitation, expenditures relating to research, development and clinical trials relating to the Company’s products and product candidates, manufacturing, capital expenditures, hiring additional personnel, acquisitions of new technologies or products, the payment, repayment, refinancing, redemption or repurchase of existing or future indebtedness, obligations or capital stock, and working capital. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted the Underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase up to an additional 2,419,354 shares of Common Stock from the Company at the public offering price per Share, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any.

The Company expects to receive net proceeds of approximately $9,145,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, assuming no exercise of the Underwriters’ over-allotment option. If the Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, the Company expects to receive net proceeds of approximately $10,555,000 after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Offering is expected to close on September 22, 2020, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. is acting as the sole book-running manager of the Offering. Maxim Group LLC is acting as lead manager for the Offering.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants by the Company. It also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, certain officers and directors of the Company have entered into “lock-up” agreements, subject to certain exceptions, with the Underwriters that generally prohibit the sale, transfer, or other disposition of securities of the Company for a period of 60 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement.

The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 and an accompanying prospectus (Registration No. 333-226100) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 9, 2018 and declared effective by the SEC on July 18, 2018, as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on September 17, 2020, and a final prospectus supplement to be filed with the SEC (the “Prospectus Supplements”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act.

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the material terms of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit, which is incorporated by reference. A copy of the legal opinion of Weintraub Tobin Chediak Coleman Grodin Law Corporation relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the shares being sold in the Offering is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, including the representations and warranties contained therein, are not for the benefit of any party other than the parties to such agreement and are not intended as a document for investors or the public to obtain factual information about the current state of affairs of the parties to that document. Rather, investors and the public should look to other disclosures contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the Prospectus Supplements.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements related to the anticipated closing of the Offering and the amount of proceeds expected from the Offering. The risks and uncertainties involved include the Company’s ability to satisfy certain conditions to closing on a timely basis or at all, as well as other risks detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which are based on the Company’s current expectations and assumptions and speak only as of the date of this report.
