ITEM 1.01 Amendment of Material Definitive Agreements.
 
During the last week of August 2017, the Company entered into various agreements (the “Agreements”), that resulted in the retirement of the then outstanding debentures, preferred stock and warrants for the purchase of common stock, previously issued by the Company (the “Old Securities”). In exchange for the Old Securities, the holders of the Old Securities (the “Holders”), received newly issued common stock, warrants for the purchase of common stock and in some cases, shares of newly issued Series J Preferred Stock convertible into common stock. The common stock received by the Holders pursuant to the Agreements together with the common stock issuable upon the exercise of newly issued warrants and upon the conversion of Series J Preferred stock is referred to hereinafter as the “New Stock”. Pursuant to the Agreements, for a period of one year, any Holder cannot on any given day sale a larger percentage of the total common stock of the Company traded on that day than the percentage of the Holder’s New Stock when compared to all New Stock issued under the Agreements (a Holder’s “Allotted Shares”).
 
Effective October 10, 2017, the Agreements were amended to adjust New Stock sales restrictions as follows: (1) no New Stock may be sold for a price of less than $7.00 per share until after November 30, 2017; (2) after December 1, 2017, a Holder’s Allotted Shares for one day may be sold on that day or over the subsequent five trading days; and (3) all trading restrictions shall terminate if and when the Company issues any securities for capital raising purposes.
 
ITEM 9.01 Exhibit.
 
Attached as Exhibit 99 is a copy of the press release issued in connection with the modification of trading restrictions discussed in Item 1.01 above.

GT BIOPHARMA ANNOUNCES STOCK SALES AGREEMENT WITH HOLDERS OF CONVERTED SECURITIES
 
WASHINGTON D.C., CA / ACCESSWIRE / OCTOBER 12, 2017 / GT Biopharma Inc. (GTBP and Euronext Paris GTBP.PA) announced today that persons who received common stock (“Common Stock”) upon the conversion of notes, preferred stock and in some cases upon the settlement of warrants, during the last week of August 2017, have amended their conversion agreements so that no Common Stock will be sold for less than $7.00 per share thru November 30, 2017. Sales above $7.00 per share are only allowed under the leak out provisions agreed to in the original conversion documents. Under the documents, the Common Stock can only be sold based on a percentage of daily volume.
 
“This amendment is beneficial to all shareholders in helping to preserve share value as GT Biopharma continues to progress towards its goal of moving onto the NASDAQ exchange,” said Executive Chairman Anthony Cataldo.
 
Further details of Common Stock lock up provisions are disclosed in the Company’s current disclosure on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.
 
About GT Biopharma, Inc.: GT Biopharma, Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on innovative drugs for the treatment of cancer and CNS diseases (Neurology and Pain) along with other unmet medical needs. GT’s lead oncology drug candidate, OXS-1550 (DT2219ARL) is a novel bispecific scFv recombinant fusion protein-drug conjugate composed of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains of anti-CD19 and anti-CD22 antibodies and a modified form of diphtheria toxin as its cytotoxic drug payload. OXS-1550 targets cancer cells expressing the CD19 receptor or the CD22 receptor or both receptors. When OXS-1550 binds to cancer cells, the cancer cells internalize the drug and are killed due to the action of cytotoxic payload. OXS-1550 has demonstrated success in early human clinical trials in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma or leukemia. OXS-3550 TriKE technology was developed by researchers at the University of Minnesota Masonic Cancer Center. As demonstrated in non-clinical models, this targeted immunotherapy directs immune cells to kill cancer cells while diminishing drug-related toxicity. GT’s CNS platform is focused on acquiring or discovering and patenting late-stage, de-risked, and close-to-market improved treatments for CNS disease (Neurology and Pain) and shepherding the products through the FDA approval process to the NDA. The current CNS pipeline products currently include treatment for neuropathic pain, the symptoms of myasthenia gravis, and motion sickness.
