Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 20, 2024, Evoke Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment (the “Warrant Amendment”) with certain holders (each, a “Holder”) of its outstanding Series A Warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the “Series A Warrants”), Series B Warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the “Series B Warrants”), and Series C Warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the “Series C Warrants”).

Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, to the extent a Holder exercises (a Holder so exercising, an “Exercising Holder”) its Series B Warrants before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on June 21, 2024 (the “Amendment Exercise Deadline”), the Holder’s corresponding Series C Warrants shall be exercisable for a number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) equal to the lesser of (i) three times the number of Warrant Shares exercised by the Exercising Holder pursuant to its Series B Warrants and (ii) the total number of remaining Warrant Shares exercisable under the Series C Warrants (such Warrant Shares that become exercisable, “Vested Warrant Shares,” and any remaining unvested and unexercisable Warrant Shares, “Unvested Warrant Shares”). For any Exercising Holder, following the Amendment Exercise Deadline, if such Exercising Holder exercises any remaining Series B Warrants, the remaining Series C Warrants, if any, shall become vested and exercisable on a one-for-one basis as to the same number of Series B Warrants exercised following the Amendment Exercise Deadline.

The Warrant Amendment also allows a Holder to choose to receive pre-funded warrants upon exercise of Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants in lieu of shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price for each Series A Warrant, Series B Warrants and Series C Warrant, as applicable, of $0.6799 per Warrant Share, with a corresponding exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant Share for each pre-funded warrant. The Warrant Amendment does not change the number of Warrant Shares underlying each series of warrants. The form of pre-funded warrant was previously described and filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 9, 2024, and the description of such warrant is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

The Company will allow all other holders of Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants or Series C Warrants to enter into an identical Warrant Amendment.

The foregoing description of the Warrant Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Warrant Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.
