Up to 3,937,008 Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase up to 3,937,008 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 196,850 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the Placement Agent Warrants

This is a reasonable best efforts public offering of up to 3,937,008 shares of our common stock at an assumed public offering price of $1.27 per share, the last reported sale price of our common stock as reported on NYSE American, or the “NYSE American,” on August 30, 2024. The actual public offering price per share of common stock will be determined between us and the Placement Agent at the time of pricing and may be at a discount to this assumed offering price. Therefore, the assumed public offering price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering price.

We are also offering up to 3,937,008 pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 3,937,008 shares of Common Stock to those purchasers whose purchase of shares of Common Stock in this offering would result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, in lieu of shares of Common Stock. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock and has an exercise price of $0.001 per share. The assumed offering price per Pre-Funded Warrant is $1.27 less $0.001. Each Pre-Funded Warrant will be exercisable immediately upon issuance and will expire when exercised in full. This offering also relates to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants sold in this offering.

There is no established public trading market for the pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for listing of the pre-funded warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants will be limited.

Our common stock is listed on NYSE American under the symbol “OGEN.” On August 30, 2024, the closing sale price of our common stock was $1.27 per share.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the disclosures described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 15 of this prospectus and in documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus for a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities.

We have engaged Dawson James Securities, Inc. to act as our placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with the securities offered by this prospectus. The Placement Agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities offered by this prospectus. The Placement Agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering, and the Placement Agent is not required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. We have agreed to pay to the Placement Agent the Placement Agent fees set forth in the table below, which assumes that we sell all of the securities offered by this prospectus. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in escrow, trust or similar arrangement. There is no minimum number of shares of securities or minimum aggregate amount of proceeds that is a condition for this offering to close. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund if we do not sell all of the securities offered hereby. Because there is no escrow account and no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds, investors could be in a position where they have invested in us, but we have not raised sufficient proceeds in this offering to adequately fund the intended uses of the proceeds as described in this prospectus. We will bear all costs associated with the offering. See “Plan of Distribution” on page 32 of this prospectus for more information regarding these arrangements. This offering will terminate no later than September 20, 2024, unless we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date.

We have agreed to pay the Placement Agent a fee based on the aggregate proceeds raised in this offering as set forth in the table below:

We are also registering up 196,850 Placement Agent Warrants to Purchase up to 196,850 shares of Common Stock and the shares of Common Stock underlying such Placement Agent Warrants.

The delivery of the shares of common stock and any pre-funded warrants to purchasers is expected to be made no later than September 20, 2024.

Our Company

We are a development-stage company dedicated to the research and development of nasal delivery pharmaceutical medications in neurology and fighting infectious diseases. Our lead product, the ONP-002 drug, is a fully synthetic, non-naturally occurring neurosteroid, is lipophilic, and it has been shown in animal models that it can cross the blood-brain barrier rapidly to reduce swelling, oxidative stress and inflammation while restoring proper blood flow through gene amplification.

On December 28, 2023, we successfully consummated our previously announced Asset Purchase Agreement with Odyssey Health, Inc. (“Odyssey”), pursuant to which we purchased all of Odyssey’s assets related to the segment of Odyssey’s business focused on developing medical products that treat brain related illnesses and diseases (the “Neurology Assets”). The Neurology Assets include drug candidates for treating mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), also known as concussion, and for treating Niemann Pick Disease Type C (NPC), as well as Odyssey’s novel proprietary nasal formulation and its novel breath-powered intranasal delivery device.

As a result of the acquisition of the Neurology Assets, we expect that, in the near- and mid-terms, we will focus our resources and efforts on the continued development of the Neurology Assets and primarily ONP-002, which, as discussed further below, has successfully completed Phase 1 clinical trials. The acquisition is expected to build on our expertise in intranasal platforms and expand our portfolio into more areas of unmet medical needs. Nasal delivery offers many advantages over standard systemic delivery systems, such as its non-invasive character, a fast onset of action and in many cases reduced side effects due to a more targeted delivery.

Accordingly, given our limited resources, we anticipate, for the time being, placing the development of our nasal COVID-19 product candidate and our lantibiotics program on hold.

In conjunction with the Neurology Asset acquisition, we paid Odyssey a total of $1,000,000 in cash, $500,000 of which was paid in October, 2023 and $500,000 of which was paid on December 11, 2023. In addition, at the closing, we issued Odyssey 8,000,000 shares of our newly created Series F Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, which are convertible into our common stock on a one-to-one basis (subject to certain adjustments). Odyssey converted 511,308 of those shares into our common stock on December 28, 2023. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation creating the Series F Preferred Stock, the remainder of the shares are not convertible until the occurrence of all of the following: (i) Oragenics’ shall have applied for and been approved for initial listing on the NYSE American or another national securities exchange or shall have been delisted from the NYSE American, which Oragenics’ does not anticipate undertaking until it meets the NYSE American’s initial listing standards, and (ii) if required by the rules of the NYSE American, Oragenics’ shareholders shall have approved any change of control that could be deemed to occur upon the conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock into common stock, based on the fact and circumstances existing at such time.

About Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI)

Concussions are a serious unmet medical need that affects millions worldwide. Repetitive concussions are thought to increase the risk of developing Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (“CTE”) and other neuropsychiatric disorders. It is estimated that 5 million concussions occur in the U.S. annually and that as many as 50% go unreported. The worldwide incidence of concussion is estimated at 69 million. The global market for concussion treatment was valued at $6.9 billion in 2020 and is forecast to reach $8.9 billion by 2027, according to Grandview Research. Common settings for concussion include contact sports, military training and operations, motor vehicle accidents, children at play and elderly falls.

Our ONP-002 Neurology Asset for Brain Related Illness and Injury

Our lead product and focus is on the development and commercialization of ONP-002 for the treatment of mild traumatic brain injury (“mTBI” or “concussion”). ONP-002 to date has been shown to be stable up to 104 degrees for 18-months. The ONP-002 drug candidate is used in conjunction with Oragenic’s novel breath-powered intranasal device. In use, breath power drives the ONP-002 drug candidate from the novel intranasal device through the nasal passage and directly into the brain for mTBI or concussion treatment. The novel intranasal device is lightweight and uniquely designed for easy and simple use in the field.

We believe the proprietary nasal formulation and intranasal administration allows for rapid and direct accessibility to the brain. The novel intranasal device is breath propelled and is designed to drive and concentrate the ONP-002 drug into the brain, which then easily crosses the blood brain barrier. In operation, when patients blow into the intranasal device, the soft palate closes in the back of the nasopharynx. This mechanism prevents the flow of the ONP-002 drug into the lungs or esophagus, minimizes systemic ONP-002 drug exposure and side effects, and concentrates the ONP-002 drug flow into the brain. In other words, this mechanism traps the ONP-002 drug in the nasal cavity allowing for more abundant and faster drug availability in the traumatized brain.

Expected ONP-002 Product Development Timeline:

Pre-clinical Animal Studies		Phase 1		Phase 2a		Phase 2b		Phase 3
Complete		Complete		Estimated Q3 2024 start		Estimated Q4 2024 start		Estimated Q4 2026 start

This product development plan is an estimate and is subject to change based on funding, technical risks and regulatory approvals.

Validation and Stability of ONP-002

A Certificate of Analysis (“COA”) was issued by the manufacturer of the drug, indicating that testing methods were standard and include appearance, identification by 1H NMR, identification by Mass Spectroscopy (MS), optical purity by HPLC, residual solvent analysis, elemental impurities, percent water, and residue on ignition. The manufacturer has shown both the specifications and the results, indicating that the material supplied passes all criteria. The ONP-002 drug is supplied in essentially pure form. As such, no excipients are believed to be present. Stability studies were performed by storing the ONP-002 drug samples under carefully controlled conditions with respect to temperature and humidity. The stability testing protocol included storage at about 25 °C± 2 °C at about 60% relative humidity ± 5% relative humidity for about 24 months and at about 40 °C± 2 °C at about 75% relative humidity ± 5% for about 18 months. The ONP-002 drug samples were pulled at essentially the scheduled time and analyzed for appearance, purity, assay, optical purity, and water content. No changes in ONP-002 were observed.

ONP-002 Pre-Clinical Trials

The ONP-002 drug has completed toxicology studies in rats and dogs. Those studies show that the ONP-002 drug has a large safety margin of its predicted efficacious dose. In preclinical animal studies, the ONP-002 drug demonstrated rapid and broad biodistribution throughout the brain while simultaneously reducing swelling, inflammation, and oxidative stress, along with an excellent safety profile.

Results from the preclinical studies suggest that the ONP-002 drug has an equivalent, and potentially superior, neuroprotective effect compared to related neurosteroids. The animals treated with the ONP-002 drug post-concussion showed positive behavioral outcomes using various testing platforms including improved memory and sensory-motor performance, and reduced depression/anxiety like behavior.

ONP-002 Drug Induction of PXR

The induction of the human CYP450 enzymes, CYP2B6, and CYP3A4 by ONP-002, as measured by mRNA expression, was tested in human hepatocytes from 3 donors at 3 concentrations: about 1 μM, about 10 μM and about 100 μM. Results reflected that the ONP-002 drug through the known PXR-mechanism produced a modest induction of CYP3A4, up to about 17% of the positive control, and a greater induction of CYP2B6, of up to about 59% of the positive control, both at a concentration of about 100 μM. Past data reflected that the ONP-001 drug candidate (ent-Progesterone) and Progesterone induce the PXR receptor. Receptor binding studies have been performed showing neither the ONP-001 drug candidate or the ONP-002 drug activate the classical Progesterone Receptor.

ONP-002 Drug Animal Studies

All surgical animals (male Sprague-Dawley rats approx. 250 grams) were anesthetized with an initial isoflurane induction for about 4 min-the minimum time necessary to sedate the animal. The scalp was shaved and cleaned with isopropanol and betadine. During the stereotaxic surgery, anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane. A medial incision was made, and the scalp was pulled back over the medial frontal cortex. An approximate 6-mm diameter craniotomy was performed exposing the brain tissue. An electrically controlled injury device using a 5 mm metal impactor was positioned over the exposed brain. An impact speed of about 1.6 m/s at about a 90-degree angle from vertical was used to produce an open head injury at a depth of 1mm to create a milder TBI. All treatments were given intranasal (IN) as a liquid solution with a micro atomizer. Vehicle for all administrations was about 22.5% Hydroxy-Propyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD).

Molecular Studies - Brain tissue was taken from the penumbral region of injury.

Cerebral Edema

In Figure 2, we show that the ONP-002 drug reduces swelling in rats compared to vehicle-treated at 24-hrs after brain injury by measure of brain water content through speed-vacuum dehydration and tissue weight comparisons. The ONP-002 drug-treated (about 4mg/kg) and vehicle-treated were compared to sham which was set at zero. Local edema can occur after mTBI. Severe cerebral edema is associated with poor outcomes including increased mortality after mTBI with Second Impact Syndrome (2). *Denotes significance at p<0.05, n=6

Inflammation

mTBI causes vascular and neuronal stress. Microglia and reactive astrocytes infiltrate the areas of injury and release inflammatory mediators, like TNF-alpha. We show that the ONP-002 drug (about 4mg/kg) reduces TNF-alpha-mediated neuroinflammation in brain tissue of rats compared to vehicle at approximately 24-hrs after mTBI (ELISA).

Pharmacokinetics and Safety of IN ONP-002 Drug in Dog

This pivotal GLP 14-day study used repeat dosing of the ONP-002 drug, 3X a day, approximately about 4 hours apart, for approximately 14 consecutive days at concentrations of about 0, 3, 10 or 23 mg/mL at a volume of about 1 mL/nostril to beagle dogs (both nostrils had drug administered). The intranasal treatment was given as a liquid solution using a micro atomizer using about 22.5% HPβCD as the vehicle. Intranasal ONP-002 drug dosing revealed that the ONP-002 drug was well tolerated up to the highest dose of about 23 mg/ml or about 46mg in total per dosing. Clinical observations were limited to increased salivation in dogs which occurred in a dose-dependent manner. There were no effects on body weight, food consumption, ophthalmic parameters, clinical chemistry, haematology, or organ weights at any of the doses tested. Microscopic analysis revealed purulent exudates in the nasal turbinate and evidence of inflammatory infiltrates and fibrin deposition in the lungs. All of these events were classified as mild, reversed during the recovery period, and did not appear to show any dose dependency. Similar findings were evident in vehicle control treated dogs indicating the findings were vehicle related. The highest dose of about 23 mg/ml was thus determined to be the NOAEL which is equivalent to a ONP-002 dose of about 1.5mg/kg and about 2.3mg/kg in male and female dogs, respectively. Testing shows the dose-dependent increase in plasma exposure of the ONP-002 drug in male and female dogs following IN administration. Plasma exposure levels were similar in males and females and there did not appear to be any evidence of drug accumulation following multiple doses.

Cardiopulmonary Safety Pharmacology

The effect of the ONP-002 drug on the human ether-a-go-go related gene (hERG) tail currents was assessed in a non-Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) study using manual whole-cell patch clamp. The ONP-002 drug tested at a single concentration of about 10 μM inhibited hERG tail currents by about 42.6% (n=3). In order to achieve a safety factor of about 30-fold between in vitro hERG IC50 and free plasma levels of the ONP-002 drug in clinical studies, the Cmax (maximum concentration) should not exceed a free drug concentration of about 0.33 μM (about 99 ng/ml). The ONP-002 drug is about 97.2% human plasma protein bound and is estimated to reach a plasma Cmax of about 12.5 nM, the highest dose of about 0.533 mg/kg to be administered in the planned first in human (FIH) study, which provides a safety factor of about 800-fold. A GLP study has been conducted at Charles River, Inc. and will be incorporated into the IND submission.

ONP-002 Drug Clinical Trials

The ONP-002 drug has completed a Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy human subjects showing it is safe and well tolerated.

Safety studies have established a dosing regimen of 2X/day for fourteen days. The Phase 1 clinical trial was performed in Melbourne, Australia with a Contract Research Organization (CRO), Avance Clinical Pty Ltd and Nucleus Network Pty Ltd. The country of Australia provides a currency exchange advantage and a tax rebate at the end of our fiscal year from the Australian government on all Research and Development performed in Australia.

The Phase 1 study was double-blinded, randomized and placebo controlled (3:1, drug:placebo). Phase 1 used a Single Ascending/Multiple Ascending (SAD/MAD) drug administration design. The SAD component was a 1X treatment (low, medium, or high dose) and the MAD component was a 1X/day treatment for five consecutive days (low and medium dose). Blood and urine samples were collected at multiple time points for safety pharmacokinetics. Standard safety monitoring was provided for each body system.

Forty human subjects (31 males, 9 females) were successfully enrolled in Phase 1. The Safety Review Board, made up of medical doctors, has reviewed the trial data and has determined the drug is safe and well tolerated at all dosing levels.

We anticipate preparing for Phase 2 clinical trials to further evaluate the ONP-002 drug’s safety and efficacy. Based on the Phase 1 data, we plan to apply for an Investigational New Drug application with the FDA and conduct a Phase 2 trial in the United States.

We anticipate a Phase 2 clinical trial will be performed administering the ONP-002 drug intranasally in concussed patients 2x a day for up to fourteen days. The Phase 2a feasibility study is expected to be performed in Australia with a target initiation date in the third quarter of 2024 to be followed closely by a Phase 2b proof of concept study in the US.

We have entered an agreement with one of the leading Contract Research Organization (CRO) in Australia, to conduct a Phase 2 clinical trial in Australia. This trial aims to evaluate the ONP-002 drug for TBI. This Australian CRO, renowned for its clinical trial management capabilities and quality of service in Australia, New Zealand, and North America, brings over two decades of expertise in navigating the Therapeutic Goods Administration, Food and Drug Administration, and European Medicines Agency regulatory landscapes. Other key third party well-respected vendors also have been engaged to advance and monitor our progress.

On July 10, 2024, we announced that we had developed a new proprietary formulation for the novel ONP-002 neurosteroid. We believe the nasal cavity provides access for our novel neurosteroid formulation to enter the brain in minutes. Given the difficulty of getting neurosteroids into solution, unique formulations must be developed to achieve therapeutic levels. We believe that our recent work has increased the final dose levels significantly while also providing for improved intranasal drug delivery and adhesion and, thus, longer absorption times. We further believe we have successfully completed an improved proprietary formulation of the ONP-002 drug that should significantly increase the bioavailability of the intranasal drug formulation. The enhanced drug percentages in this novel proprietary formulation have been developed as part of our platform for acute-field delivery of the drug. Our newly developed proprietary intranasal drug formulation is intended to reduce the duration of initial concussion symptoms and prevent long-lasting symptoms that can be debilitating after a concussion.

On August 8, 2024, we announced our candidate for treating concussion successfully completed a study that indicates the ONP-002 drug does not cause cardiotoxicity. Prior to conducting a clinical trial, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires pharmaceuticals to be tested on cardiac receptors to ensure that they do not show any causes of electrical malformations. Further, on August 30, 2024, we announced we successfully completed a study that indicates the ONP-002 drug does not cause DNA damage and genotoxicity in an animal model. Prior to conducting a clinical trial, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires that pharmaceuticals be tested on cells and animals to ensure they do not cause damage affecting cell division.

Our Medical Advisors

Dr. James “Jim” Kelly, Neurologist, serves as our Chief Medical Officer, and oversees our upcoming Phase 2 clinical trial for treating concussion. In the recent past, Dr. Kelly served as the Executive Director of the Marcus Institute for Brain Health (MIBH) and Professor of Neurology at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, Colorado. The MIBH specialized treatment program is funded by the Marcus Foundation to care for US military veterans with persistent symptoms of TBI. Dr. Kelly was also National Director of the Avalon Action Alliance TBI Programs for which the MIBH serves as the clinical coordinating center. Prior to these recent positions, Dr. Kelly was the Director of the National Intrepid Center of Excellence (NICoE) at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, MD. As its founding Director, he led the creation of an innovative interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals who blended high-tech diagnosis and treatment with complementary and alternative medical interventions in a holistic, integrative approach to the care of US military personnel with the complex combination of TBI and psychological conditions, such as post-traumatic stress, depression, and anxiety. In this role, Dr. Kelly was frequently called upon by leaders of the Military Health System at the Pentagon, the US Congress, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and numerous military facilities in the continental US and abroad. Dr. Kelly has interacted with the FDA and clinical trials for brain injury throughout his esteemed career. He is a strong advocate for treatments in the acute phase of brain injury and understands the value of protecting the brain early on from inflammation, swelling and oxidative stress to gain better clinical outcomes.

Dr. William “Frank” Peacock serves as our Chief Clinical Officer, and will conduct our anticipated Phase 2 clinical trial for treating concussion in emergency departments. Dr. Peacock is currently the Vice Chair for Emergency Medicine Research at Baylor College of Medicine and a past Professor at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine. He is also the Principal Investigator of a trial for a company developing blood biomarkers for the identification of concussion in the emergency department, which is analyzing acute blood markers that are elevated after concussion to not only ensure concussion is identified but also as a predictor of potential severity and longer-term complications. Dr. Peacock is a world-renowned speaker and researcher. He has been instrumental in the approval and use of high sensitivity blood troponins for acute coronary syndrome failure in emergency settings, which can be seen in the JAMA Cardiology publication, Efficacy of High-Sensitivity Troponin T in Identifying Very-Low-Risk Patients with Possible Acute Coronary Syndrome, and he is the editor of the first book of “Biomarkers of Traumatic Brain Injury”.

Our SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Product Candidate – NT-CoV2-1

Prior to the purchase of the Neurology Assets, starting in May 2020 with the acquisition of one hundred percent (100%) of the total issued and outstanding common stock of Noachis Terra, Inc. (“Noachis Terra”) and through December 31, 2023, we were focused on the development and commercialization of a vaccine produce candidate to provide long-lasting immunity from SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. During that time, we conducted testing in animal models, including SARS-CoV-2 challenge studies in hamsters, using specific formulations for intramuscular administration and intranasal administration, both based on the NIAID pre-fusion stabilized spike protein antigens.

In June of 2021, we initiated an immunogenicity study in mice and on August 30, 2021, we announced the successful completion of the mouse studies that supported further development using either intramuscular or intranasal routes of administration. In September of 2021, we initiated a hamster challenge to assess inhibition of viral replication using adjuvants specific for intramuscular and intranasal administration. In December of 2021, we announced that both formulations generated robust immune responses and reduced the SARS-CoV-2 viral loads to undetectable levels in the nasal passages and lungs five days following a viral challenge. On June 14, 2022, we announced that the results of these studies were published in Nature Scientific Reports.

In March of 2022, following a positive assessment of a rabbit-based pilot study, we initiated a Good Laboratory Practice toxicology study to evaluate the safety profile and immunogenicity of NT-CoV2-1 in rabbits. This preclinical study was designed to provide data required to advance our intranasal vaccine candidate into human clinical studies.

Following the successful results of the animal studies previously referenced and a Type B Pre-IND Meeting with the FDA we determined to focus our development efforts and financial resources on the intranasal delivery vaccine produce candidate, NT-CoV2-1. As part of this intranasal development focus, during 2023 we entered into strategic license agreements and announced an award of a grant from CQDM.

However, due to lack of financial resources our research and development activities for our NT-CoV2-1 vaccine product were suspended as of December 31, 2023, and are not currently active. We will continue to evaluate opportunities and funding resources for our SARS-CoV-2 and NT-CoV2-1 candidate products in the future of which there can be no assurances. These opportunities and funding resources could include, without limitation, sublicensing agreements, joint ventures or partnerships, sales or licensing of technology, government grants and public or private financings, through the sale of debt or equity securities or by securing a line of credit or other loan. There can be no assurances that we will be able to secure any such opportunity or funding.

Our Lantibiotic Product Candidate

Members of our scientific team discovered that a certain bacterial strain of Streptococcus mutans, produces Mutacin 1140 (MU1140), a molecule belonging to the novel class of antibiotics known as lantibiotics. Lantibiotics, such as MU1140, are highly modified peptide antibiotics made by a small group of Gram-positive bacterial species. Over 60 lantibiotics have been discovered, to date. We believe lantibiotics are generally recognized by the scientific community to be potent antibiotic agents. In nonclinical testing, MU1140 has shown activity against all Gram-positive bacteria against which it has been tested, including those responsible for a number of healthcare associated infections, or HAIs. A high percentage of hospital-acquired infections are caused by highly antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. We believe the need for novel antibiotics is increasing because of the growing resistance of target pathogens to existing FDA approved antibiotics on the market.

While lantibiotics are promising, in 2023 we concluded we needed to make several changes to reduce the cash used in operations. In September of 2023, we terminated our lease for the building where some of the research and development activities for the lantibiotic program were undertaken. The closing of the laboratory was part of the continued focus on preserving cash resources while seeking additional funding through various mechanisms. As of December 31, 2023, research and development activities related to the lantibiotic program are inactive. We will evaluate opportunities for the lantibiotic program; however, moving forward our focus is to strengthen our focus and expertise on developing our intranasal drug delivery platform and drug candidates that treat brain related illnesses and diseases.

Our Business Development Strategy

Success in the biopharmaceutical and product development industry relies on the continuous development of novel product candidates. Most product candidates do not make it past the clinical development stage, which forces companies to look externally for innovation. Accordingly, we expect, from time to time, to seek strategic opportunities through various forms of business development, which can include strategic alliances, licensing deals, joint ventures, collaborations, equity or debt-based investments, dispositions, mergers, and acquisitions. We view these business development activities as a necessary component of our strategies, and we seek to enhance shareholder value by evaluating business development opportunities both within and complementary to our current business, as well as opportunities that may be new and separate from the development of our existing product candidates.

As discuss elsewhere, our current focus is on advancing our ONP-002 product candidate to treat concussion. Work on our other project candidates currently is not active. As part of the focus on ONP-002, and to conserve resources, we have made several changes to reduce cash used in operations until additional capital can be obtained. As previously announced, we exercised our option under our lease with Hawley-Wiggins, LLC (the “Landlord”), for the building located in Progress Park and known as 13700 Progress Boulevard, Alachua, Florida 32615 (the “Lease”) to terminate the Lease by paying nine (9) months of advance rent, plus prorated rent for the month of September, 2023, plus applicable sales tax. In addition to the termination of the Lease, the Company eliminated two staff positions and Dr. Martin Handfield transitioned from an employee of the Company to a consultant. Dr. Handfield continues to be available to provide support services on an hourly basis through a consulting agreement. Dr. Handfield’s employment agreement was terminated in accordance with its terms. The Alachua lease contained the laboratory where some of the research and development for the lantibiotic program was undertaken.

Corporate and Other Information

We were incorporated in November 1996 and commenced operations in 1999. We consummated our initial public offering in June 2003. Our executive office is located at, 1990 Main Street, Suite 750, Sarasota, Florida 34236. Our telephone number is (813) 286-7900 and our website is http://www.oragenics.com. We make available free of charge on our website our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file or furnish such materials to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our shares of Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million or (2) our annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our shares of Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million, each as determined on an annual basis. A smaller reporting company may take advantage of relief from some of the reporting requirements and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

	●	being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;

	●	not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and

	●	reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements.

SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS

Our business is subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware of before making an investment decision. These risks are discussed more fully in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus immediately following this prospectus summary. Some of these risks include the following:

●	We have incurred significant losses since our inception, have limited financial resources, do not generate any revenues and will need to raise additional capital in the future.

●	We may not be able to secure additional funding.

●	Our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

●	We may not be able to satisfy the continued listing standards of the NYSE American and may be delisted from the NYSE American.

●	We have limited neurology-specific research, development, manufacturing, testing, regulatory, commercialization, sales, distribution, and marketing experience, and we may need to invest significant financial and management resources to establish these capabilities.

●	None of our product candidates have been approved for sale and if we are unable to successfully develop our product candidates, we may not be able to continue as a going concern.

●	Our product candidates, if approved, will face significant competition; many of our competitors have significantly greater resources and experience.

●	Our ONP-002 concussion candidate may face competition from biosimilars approved through an abbreviated regulatory pathway.

●	The market opportunities for our neurology product candidates may be smaller than we believe them to be and we cannot assure you that the market and consumers will accept our products or product candidates.

●	If our manufacturers and suppliers fail to meet our requirements and the requirements of regulatory authorities, our research and development may be materially adversely affected.

●	We rely on the significant experience and specialized expertise of our senior management and scientific team and the loss of any of our key personnel or our inability to successfully hire their successors could harm our business.

●	If any of our product candidates are shown to be ineffective or harmful in humans, we will be unable to generate revenues from these product candidates.

●	We might not be successful at acquiring, investing in or integrating businesses, entering into joint ventures or divesting businesses.

●	Our concussion and neurology related research and development efforts are to a large extent dependent upon our intellectual property and biologicals materials licenses.

●	We may not be able to protect our intellectual property and if we are unable to protect our trademarks or other intellectual property from infringement, our business prospects may be harmed.

●	We may be subject to claims challenging the inventorship of our patents and other intellectual property rights.

●	If we are sued for infringing intellectual property rights of third parties, it will be costly and time-consuming and an unfavorable outcome in that litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business.

●	Our success will depend on our ability to partner or sub-license our product candidates.

●	Security breaches and other disruptions to our information technology systems or those of the vendors on whom we rely on could compromise our information and expose us to liability, reputational damage, or other costs.

●	Our product candidates are subject to substantial government regulation and will be subject to ongoing and continued regulatory review and we may also be subject to healthcare laws, regulation and enforcement.

●	We may be unable to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates under applicable regulatory requirements.

●	Delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials may result in additional costs and delays.

●	Our product candidates may cause serious or undesirable side effects.

●	Our employees, independent contractors, principal investigators, consultants, vendors and CROs may engage in misconduct or other improper activities, including noncompliance with regulatory standards and requirements.

●	Even if our current product candidates or any future product candidates obtain regulatory approval, they may fail to achieve the broad degree of health care payers, physician and patient adoption and use necessary for commercial success.

●	The issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future will result in dilution and the conversion of our outstanding preferred stock will result in significant dilution.

●	Our Series A and Series B preferred stock, if not converted into common stock, has a distribution and liquidation preference senior to our common stock in liquidation which could negatively affect the value of our common stock and impair our ability to raise additional capital.

●	Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation, bylaws, executive employment agreements and stock option plan may prevent a change of control of our company that a shareholder may consider favorable.

●	The price and volume of our common stock has been volatile and fluctuates substantially.

●	The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified members for our Board of Directors.

●	If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to purchase our securities, including the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, any subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the SEC, all of which are incorporated by reference herein. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected and we may not be able to achieve our goals, the value of our securities could decline and you could lose some or all of your investment. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also significantly impair our business operations. If any of these risks occur, our business, results of operations or financial condition and prospects could be harmed. In that event, the market price of our common stock and the value of the warrants could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

The market price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be volatile and fluctuate significantly, which could result in substantial losses for investors.

The trading price for our common stock has been, and we expect it to continue to be, volatile. The price at which our common stock trades depends upon a number of factors, including our historical and anticipated operating results, our financial situation, announcements by us or our competitors, our ability or inability to raise the additional capital we may need and the terms on which we raise it, and general market and economic conditions. Some of these factors are beyond our control. Broad market fluctuations may lower the market price of our common stock and affect the volume of trading in our stock, regardless of our financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects. The closing price of our common stock as reported on the NYSE American had a high price of $9.00 and a low price of $2.62 in the 52-week period ended December 31, 2023 and a high price of $6.84 and a low price of $0.90 from January 1, 2024 through August 30, 2024. Among the factors that may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate are the risks described in this “Risk Factors” section and other factors, including:

In addition, the stock markets, in general, NYSE American and the market for biotech companies in particular, may experience a loss of investor confidence. Such loss of investor confidence may result in extreme price and volume fluctuations in our common stock that are unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of our business, financial condition or results of operations. These broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our common stock and expose us to securities class action litigation. Such litigation, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and divert management’s attention and resources, which could further materially harm our financial condition and results of operations.

This offering may cause the trading price of our Common Stock to decrease.

The shares of Common Stock we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our Common Stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering.

We cannot assure you that we will continue to be listed on the NYSE American.

Our common stock commenced trading on the NYSE American (formerly the NYSE MKT) on April 10, 2013, and we are subject to certain NYSE American continued listing requirements and standards. On April 18, 2024, we received notification (the “Notice”) from the NYSE American that we were no longer in compliance with NYSE American’s continued listing standards. Specifically, the letter stated that the Company was not in compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in Sections 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”). Section 1003(a)(ii) requires a listed company to have stockholders’ equity of $4 million or more if the listed company has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. Section 1003(a)(iii) requires a listed company to have stockholders’ equity of $6 million or more if the listed company has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years. We reported shareholders’ equity of $3.2 million as of December 31, 2023, and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2023. On May 17, 2024, we submitted a plan of compliance (the “Plan”) to the NYSE American. On June 18, 2024, the NYSE American accepted our Plan; the Company will be able to continue its listing during the Plan period and will be subject to continued periodic review by the NYSE American staff. If we are not in compliance with the continued listing standards by October 18, 2025 or if the Company does not make progress consistent with the Plan during the Plan period, the Company will be subject to delisting procedures as set forth in the NYSE American Company Guide. The Company is committed to undertaking a transaction or transactions in the future to achieve compliance with the NYSE American’s requirements. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards within the required timeframe. If the Common Stock ultimately were to be delisted for any reason, it could negatively impact the Company by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of the Company’s Common Stock; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the Common Stock, which could negatively impact the Company’s ability to raise equity financing; (iii) limiting the Company’s ability to use a registration statement to offer and sell freely tradable securities, thereby preventing the Company from accessing the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing the Company’s ability to provide equity incentives to its employees.

This is a reasonable best efforts offering, no minimum amount of securities is required to be sold, and we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our business plans, including our near-term business plans.

The Placement Agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities in this offering. The Placement Agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. There is no required minimum number of securities that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, Placement Agent fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth above. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to support our continued operations, including our near-term continued operations. Thus, we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our operations in the short-term and may need to raise additional funds, which may not be available or available on terms acceptable to us.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.

You will incur immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering. After giving effect to the sale by us of shares offered in this offering at the public offering price of $1.27 per share, and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, investors in this offering can expect an immediate dilution of approximately $0.68 per share (without assigning any value to the Warrants). The exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the conversion of our outstanding preferred stock may result in further dilution of your investment and, with regard to our Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, will result in a material further dilution of your investment. See “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase our securities in the offering.

Future sales of our common stock in the public market could cause our stock price to fall.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, or the perception by the market that those sales could occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline or could make it more difficult for us to raise funds through the sale of equity in the future. Future issuances of common stock could further depress the market for our common stock. We expect to continue to incur drug development and selling, general and administrative costs, and to satisfy our funding requirements, we will need to sell additional equity securities, which may include sales of significant amounts of common stock to strategic investors, and which common stock may be subject to registration rights and warrants with anti-dilutive protective provisions. The sale or the proposed sale of substantial amounts of our common stock or other equity securities in the public markets or in private transactions may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our stock price may decline substantially. Our stockholders may experience substantial dilution and a reduction in the price that they are able to obtain upon sale of their shares. Also, new equity securities issued may have greater rights, preferences or privileges than our existing common stock. In addition, we have a significant number of shares of restricted stock, stock options and warrants outstanding. To the extent that outstanding stock options or warrants have been or may be exercised or other shares issued, investors purchasing our common stock in this offering may experience further dilution.

If we make one or more significant acquisitions in which the consideration includes stock or other securities, our stockholders’ holdings may be significantly diluted. In addition, stockholders’ holdings may also be diluted if we enter into arrangements with third parties permitting us to issue shares of common stock in lieu of certain cash payments upon the achievement of milestones.

The issuance of shares of our common stock under our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan is covered by Form S-8 registration statements we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and upon exercise of the options, such shares may be resold into the market. We have also issued shares of common stock and warrants in connection with previous private placements. Such shares are available for resale as well as certain of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. We have also issued shares of our common stock in the private placement and financing transaction, which are deemed to be “restricted securities,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Securities Act, and such shares may be resold pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144. The resale of shares acquired from us in private transactions could cause our stock price to decline significantly. In addition, the conversion of outstanding shares preferred stock into common stock and the subsequent sale of shares of common stock could also cause our stock price to decline significantly.

In addition, from time to time, certain of our shareholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their restricted shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, after satisfying a six-month holding period: (i) affiliated shareholders, or shareholders whose shares are aggregated, may, under certain circumstances, sell within any three-month period a number of securities which does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume of the class during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale and (ii) non-affiliated shareholders may sell without such limitations, in each case provided we are current in our public reporting obligations. Rule 144 also permits the sale of securities by non-affiliates that have satisfied a one-year holding period without any limitation or restriction.

We are unable to estimate the number of shares that may be sold because this will depend on the market price for our common stock, the personal or business circumstances of sellers and other factors.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

To raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the prices per share in this offering. We may sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less than the prices per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares of our common stock or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the prices per share paid by investors in this offering.

The issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future would result in dilution to our existing common shareholders.

Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or a part of our authorized but unissued shares, except where shareholder approval is required by law or the rules of any exchange on which our shares are listed. Any issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future could result in dilution to our existing common shareholders. Such issuances could be made at a price that reflects a discount or a premium to the then-current trading price of our common stock. In addition, our business strategy may include expansion through internal growth by acquiring complementary businesses, acquiring or licensing additional products or brands, or establishing strategic relationships with targeted customers and suppliers. In order to do so, or to finance the cost of our other activities, we may issue additional equity securities that could result in further dilution to our existing common shareholders. These issuances would dilute the percentage ownership interest of our existing common shareholders, which would have the effect of reducing their influence on matters on which our shareholders vote and might dilute the book value of our common stock. For example, our outstanding shares of common stock at December 31, 2023 was 3,080,693, due to additional common stock issuances related to capital raises, at August 8 2024 our outstanding shares of common stock was 5,580,693. Furthermore, if holders of our outstanding preferred stock convert their preferred shares into common stock an additional 7,511,220 shares of common stock could be issued resulting in dilution to our existing common shareholders.

Our management team may invest or spend the proceeds of this offering in ways with which you may not agree or in ways which may not yield a significant return.

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to fund a portion of our ONP-002 research and clinical trials, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. Our management will have considerable discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. The net proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not increase our operating results or enhance the value of our common stock.

The precise amount and timing of the application of these proceeds will depend upon a number of factors, such as the timing and progress of our research and development efforts, our funding requirements and the availability and costs of other funds. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to us from this offering. Depending on the outcome of our efforts and other unforeseen events, our plans and priorities may change and we may apply the net proceeds of this offering in different manners than we currently anticipated.

The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, interest-bearing instruments. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders.

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not anticipate declaring or paying cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to the payment of cash dividends on our common stock will be at our Board of Directors’ discretion and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and other factors that our Board of Directors considers to be relevant.

There is no public market for the pre-funded warrants being offered by us in this offering.

There is no established public trading market for the pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants will be limited.

The pre-funded warrants offered hereby do not confer any rights of share of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of common stock at a fixed price. Holders of the pre-funded warrants may acquire the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of common stock. Following this offering, the market value of the pre-funded warrants is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the pre-funded warrants will equal or exceed its public offering price.

Certain provisions in our existing warrants could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.

Certain provisions of our existing warrants could make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire us. Our warrants prohibit us from engaging in certain transactions constituting “fundamental transactions” unless, among other things, the surviving entity assumes our obligations under the warrants and pre-funded warrants. Further, the warrants provide that, in the event of certain transactions constituting “fundamental transactions,” with some exception, holders of such warrants will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase such warrants at a price described in such warrants. These and other provisions of the warrants offered by this prospectus could prevent or deter a third party from acquiring us even where the acquisition could be beneficial to you.

We estimate that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $4.3 million. “Net proceeds” are what we expect to receive after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering, along with our existing cash and cash equivalents, to fund our ongoing ONP-2 concussion clinical trials, along with other related research and development activities, as well as for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The net proceeds from this offering, together with our cash, will not be sufficient for us to fund our ONP-002 product candidate through regulatory approval, and we will need to raise additional capital to complete the development and commercialization of our ONP-002 product candidate. We may satisfy our future cash needs through the sale of equity securities, debt financings, working capital lines of credit, corporate collaborations or license agreements, grant funding, interest income earned on invested cash balances or a combination of one or more of these sources, but there can be no assurances that such future sources will be available to us. This expected use of the net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the closing of this offering or the amounts that we will actually spend. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures and the extent of clinical development may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including the progress of our development efforts, the clinical trials we may commence in the future, as well as any collaborations that we may enter with third parties for our product candidates and any unforeseen cash needs. As a result, our management will have significant discretion in the use of any net proceeds and Investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds. See, “Risk Factors.”

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Moreover, we do not anticipate paying periodic cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. We intend to use all available cash and liquid assets in the operation and growth of our business. Any future determination about the payment of dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, capital requirements, operating and financial conditions and on such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

The information below is illustrative only, and our capitalization following the completion of this offering will be adjusted based on the actual offering price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. You should read the information in this table together with our financial statements and accompanying notes appearing at the end of this prospectus and the “Selected Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Description of Capital Stock” sections of this prospectus.

A $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed public offering price of $1.27 per share, which was the closing price of our common stock as reported on NYSE American on August 30, 2024, would increase or decrease, respectively, our pro forma as adjusted cash and cash equivalents, additional paid-in capital, total stockholders’ equity, and total capitalization by approximately $3.9 million, assuming the number of securities offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of warrants, and after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of securities to be issued in this offering. An increase or decrease of 100,000 in the number of shares of common stock offered by us would increase or decrease, respectively, our pro forma as adjusted cash and cash equivalents, additional paid-in capital, total stockholders’ equity, and total capitalization by approximately $0.13 million, assuming that the assumed public offering price remains the same, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of warrants, and after deducting estimated placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will be adjusted based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offering as determined between us, the placement agent, and the investors at pricing.

The number of shares of our common stock to be outstanding after this offering is based on shares of our common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2024, assumes no sale of Pre-Funded Warrants, and excludes the following:

● 222,920 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options under our equity incentive plans at a weighted average exercise price of $19.72 per share;

● 348,827 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under outstanding warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $52.02 per share;

● 1,042,812 additional shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2021 equity incentive plan;

● approximately 9,028 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under conversion of our outstanding shares of Series A Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock;

● approximately 13,500 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under conversion of our outstanding shares of Series B Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock; and

● approximately 7,488,692 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under conversion of 7,488,692 outstanding shares of Series F Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock.

If you purchase common stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the assumed offering price of $1.27 per share and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately upon the consummation of this offering.

Our net tangible book value as of June 30, 2024 was $1.3 million, or $0.24 per share, based upon 5,580,693 shares of common stock outstanding as of that date. Net tangible book value per share of our common stock represents our total tangible assets (total assets less intangible assets) less total liabilities divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of that date. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after this offering.

After giving effect to the sale by us of 3,937,008 shares of our common stock in this offering at the assumed offering price of $1.27 per share and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted, pro forma net tangible book value would be approximately $5.6 million, or approximately $0.59 per share of common stock, as of June 30, 2024. This represents an immediate increase in our adjusted, pro forma net tangible book value of approximately $0.35 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of approximately $0.68 per share to new investors. The following table illustrates this calculation on a per share basis:

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $1.27 per share, would increase (decrease) our proforma as adjusted net tangible book value per share to existing investors by approximately $0.07, and would increase (decrease) dilution per share to new investors in this offering by approximately $0.12, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the estimated placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of securities to be issued in this offering. Each increase (decrease) of 100,000 shares offered by us would increase (decrease) our as adjusted net tangible book value per share by $0.01 and the dilution per share to new investors purchasing securities in this offering by $0.01 assuming that the assumed public offering price remains the same, and after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will be adjusted based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offering as determined between us and the placement agents at pricing.

The adjusted calculation above is based on shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2024, assumes no sale of Pre-Funded Warrants, and excludes as of that date:

● 222,920 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options under our equity incentive plans at a weighted average exercise price of $19.72 per share;

● 348,827 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under outstanding warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $52.02 per share;

● 1,042,812 additional shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2021 equity incentive plan;

● approximately 9,028 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under conversion of our outstanding shares of Series A Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock;

● approximately 13,500 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under conversion of our outstanding shares of Series B Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock; and

● approximately 7,488,692 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under conversion of 7,488,692 outstanding shares of Series F Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock.

Importantly, the conversion of our outstanding preferred stock, and in particular our Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, will result in a material further dilution of your investment. After giving effect to the sale of our common stock in this offering at the assumed offering price of $1.27 per share and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses per share, and assuming the conversion of all 7,488,692 outstanding shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, which shares are entitled to convert into shares of our common stock on a one-to-one basis, subject to certain restrictions and adjustments, our as adjusted, pro forma net tangible book value per share of common stock would be approximately $0.33, as of June 30, 2024. This represents an immediate dilution of approximately $0.94 per share to new investors. See “Risk Factors”.

In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

The following descriptions are summaries of the material terms that are included in our amended and restated articles of incorporation (as amended) and our bylaws (as amended) as well as the specific agreements such descriptions relate to. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the specific terms and provisions contained in our restated articles of incorporation, bylaws and the specific agreements described herein, copies of which we have filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and by the provisions of applicable law.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 350,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without par value.

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock voting for the election of directors collectively hold the voting power to elect all of our directors. Holders of our common stock representing one third of the voting power of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders.

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably all dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors out of the funds legally available.

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, after payment in full of our liabilities and the amounts required to be paid to holders of any outstanding shares of preferred stock, if any, all holders of our common stock, along with the holders of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock on an “as if” converted basis, will be entitled to receive a pro rata distribution of all of our assets and funds legally available for distribution.

No shares of our common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of our common stock or any of our other securities.

All of our outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common stock to be issued in this offering will be fully paid and nonassessable.

Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE American under the trading symbol “OGEN”.

Our Board of Directors has the authority, without action by our shareholders, to designate and issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series or classes and to designate the rights, preferences and privileges of each series or class, which may be greater than the rights of our common stock. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights, liquidation preferences, the number of shares constituting any class or series and the designation of the class or series. Terms selected by our Board of Directors in the future could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock or adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of shares of common stock without any further vote or action by the stockholders. As a result, the rights of holders of our common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series F Convertible Preferred Stock or any other preferred stock that may be issued by us in the future, which could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock. The Company’s previously issued shares of Series C, D and E Preferred Stock have all either been cancelled or converted and are no longer outstanding.

On May 10, 2017 and on July 25, 2017, we issued an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, designated as the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to the certificate of designation and rights filed by us with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, with an aggregate original purchase price and initial liquidation preference of $3.0 million. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was issued for an amount equal to $0.25 per share, which we refer to as the original purchase price. On March 9, 2018 and August 26, 2022, certain holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock elected to convert to common stock and, as a result of such conversions, 5,417,000 shares of Series A Preferred remain outstanding.

On December 28, 2023, we issued 8,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, designated as the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series F Preferred Stock”) pursuant to the certificate of designation and rights filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida (“Series F Certificate of Designation”), as partial consideration for the purchase of certain assets of Odyssey Health, Inc. On December 28, 2023 and pursuant to the Series F Certificate of Designation, 511,308 shares of Series F Preferred were converted to common stock and, as a result of such conversion, 7,488,692 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding.

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock.

The Series F Preferred Stock is economically equivalent to the Company’s common stock. Upon liquidation, it is at parity with the common stock and junior to Company’s outstanding Class A and B Preferred Stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation created specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Series F Preferred Stock.

The Series F Preferred Stock has no voting rights, except as required by applicable law and except for limited protective voting rights specifically set forth in Certificate of Designation.

The Series F Preferred Stock is convertible commencing with the date of its issuance into Common Stock on a 1 for 1 basis (subject to customary adjustments). However, pursuant to the Series F Certificate of Designation, the holder of the Series F Preferred Stock cannot convert shares of Series F Preferred Stock into more than 19.9% of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding as of October 4, 2023 until (i) the Company shall have applied for and been approved for initial listing on the NYSE American or another national securities exchange or shall have been delisted from the NYSE American, and (ii) if required by the rules of the NYSE American, the Company’s shareholders shall have approved any change of control that could be deemed to occur upon the conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock into Common Stock, based on the facts and circumstances existing at such time.

No holders of Series F Preferred Stock will, as holders of Series F Preferred Stock, have any preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for our Common Stock or any of our other securities.

There is no established trading market for any of the Series F Preferred Stock, and the Company does not expect a market to develop. The Company does not intend to apply for a listing for any of the Series F Preferred Stock on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

The Company’s previously had issued shares of Series C, D and E Preferred Stock. All of the shares of Series C Non-Voting, Non-Convertible Preferred Stock were redeemed by the Company in accordance with their terms and no shares of Series C Non-Voting, Non-Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding. All of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock-Converted to Common Stock were converted to common stock and as such, the Company no longer has any Series D Preferred Stock outstanding. Pursuant to the terms of the Series E Certificate of Designation, upon effectiveness of an amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company to effect an increase in the shares of Common Stock the Company was authorized to issue from 4,166,666 shares of Common Stock to 350,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Amendment”), each share of Series E Preferred Stock would be automatically transferred to the Company and cancelled for no consideration with no action on behalf of the holders of Series E Preferred Stock. The Company’s shareholders approved the Amendment on December 14, 2023, and accordingly, all of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock resumed the status of authorized but unissued preferred stock and are no longer designated as Series E Preferred Stock.

We are not subject to the statutory anti-takeover provisions under Florida law because in our articles of incorporation we have specifically elected to opt out of both the “control-share acquisitions” (F.S. 607.0902) and the “affiliated transactions” (F.S. 607.0901) statutes. Since these anti-takeover statutes do not apply to a corporation that has specifically elected to opt out of such provisions, we would not be able to invoke the protection of such statutes in the event of a hostile takeover attempt.

Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could have an anti-takeover effect. These provisions include

These provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws could delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in control of us, including transactions in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over their current prices. Such provisions could also limit the ability of shareholders to approve transactions that shareholders may deem to be in their best interests and could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

The transfer agent and registrar of our common stock is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State Street 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004, telephone: (212) 509-4000.

We are offering up to 3,937,008 shares of our Common Stock and up to 3,937,008 pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 3,937,008 shares of our Common Stock. We are also registering the shares of our Common Stock issuable from time to time upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants offered hereby.

We are authorized to issue 350,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at $0.001 par value per share and 50,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, with no par value.

The material terms and provisions of our common stock are described under the caption “Description of Capital Stock” in this prospectus and are incorporated herein by reference.

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of Pre-Funded Warrants that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the Pre-Funded Warrant, the form of which will be filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC and that will be incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of Pre-Funded Warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

Each Pre-Funded Warrant offered hereby will have an initial exercise price of $0.001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock and the exercise price.

The Pre-Funded Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the Pre-Funded Warrant to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of a purchaser, 9.99%) of the outstanding Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s Pre-Funded Warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Pre-Funded Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price.

In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrants.

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Pre-Funded Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities, the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction, other than one in which a successor entity that is a publicly traded corporation (whose stock is quoted or listed for trading on a national securities exchange, including, but not limited to, the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Capital Market) assumes the common warrant such that the warrant shall be exercisable for the publicly traded common stock of such successor entity.

Subject to applicable laws, a Pre-Funded Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Pre-Funded Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

We do not intend to list the Pre-Funded Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

Except as otherwise provided in the Pre-Funded Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of, the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their Pre-Funded Warrants.

Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE American under the trading symbol “OGEN”.

We engaged Dawson James Securities, Inc. (“Dawson James” or the “Placement Agent”) to act as our exclusive placement agent to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus on a reasonable best efforts basis. Dawson James is not purchasing or selling any securities, nor are they required to arrange for the purchase and sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities, other than to use their “reasonable best efforts” to arrange for the sale of the securities by us. Therefore, we may not sell the entire amount of securities being offered. There is no minimum amount of proceeds that is a condition to closing of this offering. The Placement Agent does not guarantee that it will be able to raise new capital in this offering. The terms of this offering were subject to market conditions and negotiations between us and prospective investors in consultation with the Placement Agent. The Placement Agent will have no authority to bind us. This offering will terminate no later than September 20, 2024, unless we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will have one closing for all the securities purchased in this offering. The combined public offering price per share (or pre-funded warrant) will be fixed for the duration of this offering. Dawson James may engage one or more sub-placement agents or selected dealers to assist with the offering.

We will enter into a securities purchase agreement directly with the institutional investors, at the investor’s option, who purchase our securities in this offering. Investors who do not enter into a securities purchase agreement shall rely solely on this prospectus in connection with the purchase of our securities in this offering.

We will deliver the securities being issued to the investor upon receipt of such investor’s funds for the purchase of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus. We expect to deliver the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus on or about , 2024.

We have agreed to indemnify the Placement Agent against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the Placement Agent may be required to make in respect thereof.

The following table shows the per share and per pre-funded warrant and total placement agent fees we will pay in connection with the sale of the securities in this offering.

1. We have agreed to pay to the placement agent a cash fee equal to 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering subject to a partial adjustment in the event certain investors participate. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual aggregate cash placement fee, if any, is not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amount set forth above.

2. We have also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent at closing for legal and other expenses incurred by the placement agent in connection with this offering in an amount up to $125,000.

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering, including registration, filing and listing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses, but excluding placement agent fees, will be approximately $350,000, all of which are payable by us. This figure includes the Placement Agent’s accountable expenses, including, but not limited to, legal fees for Placement Agent’s legal counsel, that we have agreed to pay at the closing of the offering up to an aggregate expense reimbursement of $125,000, assuming we receive at least $4 million of gross proceeds in the offering. If we receive less than $4 million in gross proceeds in the offering, the cap on expense reimbursements will be $75,000.

In addition, we have agreed to issue to the Placement Agent or its designees warrants to purchase up to 196,850 shares of Common Stock (which represents 5.0% of the aggregate number of shares of shares of common stock issued in this offering) with an exercise price of $2.60 per share (representing 125% of the public offering price per share) and exercisable for five years from the date of the commencement of sales in this offering.

The Placement Agent warrants will be exercisable upon issuance, will have a cashless exercise provision and will terminate on the fifth anniversary of the commencement date of sales in this offering. The Placement Agent warrants are not exercisable or convertible for more than five years from the commencement date of sales in this offering. The Placement Agent warrants also provide for customary anti-dilution provisions, demand and “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the registration of the shares of common stock underlying the warrants for a period not to exceed five years from the commencement of sales in the offering. We have registered the Placement Agent warrants and the shares underlying the Placement Agent warrants in this offering.

The Placement Agent warrants and the underlying shares will be deemed to be compensation by FINRA, and therefore will be subject to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), neither the Placement Agent warrants nor any of our shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the Placement Agent warrants may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of such securities by any person, for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement date of sales in this offering, subject to certain exceptions. The Placement Agent warrants to be received by the Placement Agent and related persons in connection with this offering: (i) fully comply with lock-up restrictions pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1); and (ii) fully comply with transfer restrictions pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2).

In the event the closing of this offering results in the Company receiving at least $4 million of gross proceeds, we have also agreed to pay the Placement Agent a tail fee in an amount equal to 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in any public or private offering or other financing consummated by the Company in the three month period following the expiration or termination of our engagement of the Placement Agent to the extent that such financing or capital is provided to the Company by investors introduced to this offering by the Placement Agent.

The Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial and investment banking and financial advisory services for us and our affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

On June 26, 2024, the Company completed a “best efforts” public offering of 1,100,000 shares of its Common Stock at $1.00 per share generating gross proceeds of $1.1 million. Dawson James acted as the sole placement agent in connection with the offering, and the Company paid Dawson James a placement agent fee of $77,000 in cash (7.0% of the gross proceeds from the offering) and reimbursed Dawson James for $75,000 for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, including the legal fees. In addition, the Company issued Dawson James warrants to purchase up to 55,000 shares of Common Stock (which was 5% of the aggregate number of securities sold in the offering) with an exercise price of $1.25 (125% of the offering price of the Common Stock sold in the offering). The warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of closing of the offering and are initially exercisable six months from the closing of the offering.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments issued by us and our affiliates. If the Placement Agent or its affiliates have a lending relationship with us, they routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. The Placement Agent and its affiliates may hedge such exposure by entering into transactions that consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities or the securities of our affiliates, including potentially the Common Stock offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Common Stock offered hereby. The Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

The public offering price per share and the public offering price per pre-funded warrant we are offering and the exercise prices and other terms of the warrants were negotiated between us and the investors, in consultation with the Placement Agent based on the trading of our common stock prior to this offering, among other things. Other factors considered in determining the public offering prices of the securities we are offering and the exercise prices and other terms of the pre-funded warrants include the history and prospects of our company, the stage of development of our business, our business plans for the future and the extent to which they have been implemented, an assessment of our management, general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the offering and such other factors as were deemed relevant.

Each of our officers and directors and five percent (5%) shareholders have agreed to be subject to a lock-up period of 90 days following the date of this prospectus. This means that, during the applicable lock-up period, they may not offer for sale, contract to sell, or sell any shares of our common stock or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of our common stock subject to certain customary exceptions. In addition, provided that the Company receives at least $4 million in gross proceeds in this offering, we have agreed to not issue any shares of common stock or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock or file any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any of our securities, subject to certain exceptions, for a period of 90 days following the closing date of this offering; provided that following the closing date of this offering we will be permitted to enter into an agreement in connection with an “at the market” offering under Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act and make sales thereunder.

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments that the placement agent may be required to make for these liabilities.

The Placement Agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act and any fees received by it and any profit realized on the sale of the securities by it while acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. The placement agent will be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our securities by the placement agent. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent may not (i) engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities; and (ii) bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until they have completed their participation in the distribution.

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on a website maintained by the placement agent and the placement agent may distribute prospectuses electronically. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved and/or endorsed by us or the placement agent and should not be relied upon by investors.

Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “OGEN.” On August 15, 2024, the reported closing price per share of our common stock was $1.41. The final public offering price will be determined between us, the placement agent and the investors in the offering, and may be at a discount to the current market price of our common stock. Therefore, the assumed public offering price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final public offering price. There is no established public trading market for the pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect such markets to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for a listing of the pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

Up to 196,850 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the Placement Agent Warrants

The following table sets forth an estimate of the fees and expenses payable by the registrant in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered. All amounts are estimated except the SEC registration filing fee. All of the expenses below will be paid by us.

Under our Bylaws, each of our directors has the right to be indemnified by us to the maximum extent permitted by law against (i) reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any threatened, pending or completed civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or arbitrative action, suit or proceeding seeking to hold the director liable by reason of his or her actions in such capacity and (ii) reasonable payments made by the director in satisfaction of any judgment, money decree, fine, penalty or settlement for which he or she became liable in such action, suit or proceeding. This right to indemnification includes the right to the advancement of reasonable expenses by us, to the maximum extent permitted by law. Under our Bylaws, each of our officers who are not directors is entitled to the same indemnification rights, including the right to the advancement of reasonable expenses, which are provided to our directors.

Pursuant to the Florida Business Corporation Act, a Florida corporation has the power to indemnify its directors and officers provided that they act in good faith and reasonably believe that their conduct was lawful and in the corporate interest (or not opposed thereto), as set forth in the Business Corporation Act. Under the Business Corporation Act, unless limited by its articles of incorporation, a corporation must indemnify a director or officer who is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she was a party because he or she is or was a director or officer, against reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding. Our Articles of Incorporation do not contain any such limitations. The Business Corporation Act permits a corporation to pay for or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of an action, suit or proceeding only upon (i) the director’s certification that he or she acted in good faith and in the corporate interest (or not opposed thereto), (ii) the director furnishing a written undertaking to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he or she did not meet this standard of conduct, and (iii) a determination is made that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude indemnification under the Business Corporation Act.

Under our Articles of Incorporation, no director will be liable to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The Florida Business Corporation Act also empowers a corporation to provide insurance for directors and officers against liability arising out of their positions, even though the insurance coverage may be broader than the corporation’s power to indemnify. We maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the benefit of our directors and officers.

In our employment agreements with Michael Redmond, our President, and Janet Huffman, our Chief Financial Officer, we agreed to indemnify them for all claims arising out of performance of their duties, other than those arising out of their breach of the agreement or their gross negligence or willful misconduct.

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of the registrant’s directors or executive officers as to which indemnification is being sought nor is the registrant aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any executive officer or director.

The Placement Agency agreement, if any, entered into with respect to an offering of securities registered hereunder will provide for indemnification by any Placement Agents of any offering, our directors and officers who sign the registration statement and our controlling persons for some liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

In connection with a public offering the Company conducted in February 2024, the Company issued to ThinkEquity LLC, as representative of the underwriters in such offering, and certain of its designees, a warrant, exercisable one hundred eighty (180) days after February 27, 2024 and expiring on February 27, 2029, to purchase up to 70,000 the Shares at an exercise price of $1.875 per share. The Representative’s Warrants were not registered under the Securities Act and were instead offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

On December 28, 2023, in connection with the closing of the purchase of the Neurology Assets from Odyssey Health, Inc., and in partial consideration for such assets, the Company issued 8 million shares of convertible Series F Preferred Stock to Odyssey. The Series F Preferred Stock was not registered under the Securities Act and was instead offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

On August 4, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with two healthcare-focused investors, pursuant to which the Company issued in a private placement an aggregate of (i) 404,728 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and (ii) 404,728 shares of Series E Mirroring Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”). The Common Stock and Series E Preferred Stock were not registered under the Securities Act and were instead offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

a. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

i. To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

ii. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

iii. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

b. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

c. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

d. That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

e. That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§ 230.424 of this chapter);

ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(2) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

a. For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance on Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the undersigned registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and

b. For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the City of Sarasota, State of Florida on September 3, 2024.

⁽¹⁾	We will pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to seven percent (7%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain offering-related expenses and have agreed to issue to the Placement Agent warrants to purchase up to five percent 5% of the shares of our Common Stock (including the shares of Common Stock underlying any Pre-Funded Warrants) sold in the offering with an exercise price equal to 125% of the per share offering price. We refer you to “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 32 for additional information regarding compensation to be received by the Placement Agent.

⁽²⁾	Assuming the maximum offering amount is sold in this offering.

⁽³⁾	The amount of the offering proceeds to us presented in this table does not give effect to any exercise of the pre-funded warrants being issued in connection with this offering.
