Rhea-AI Filing Summary

OS Therapies Incorporated entered into warrant inducement offer letters with fewer than 10 accredited investors holding existing warrants to purchase up to 5,382,148 shares of common stock. The investors agreed to exercise these existing warrants for cash at a reduced exercise price of $1.40 per share, and in return the company will issue new warrants to purchase up to 5,382,148 additional shares at the same exercise price, exercisable immediately for five years.

The company engaged an SEC-registered broker-dealer as exclusive solicitation agent and expects aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million, before an 8.0% cash fee to the agent and up to $25,000 of expenses. OS Therapies plans to use the net proceeds to support U.S. and international regulatory and pre-commercial efforts for OST-HER2 in osteosarcoma, to help fund spinoff preparations for its OS Animal Health subsidiary, and for general corporate purposes.

The new warrants include beneficial ownership caps of 4.99% or, at the holder’s election, 9.99%, a potential forced exercise feature if the stock trades at or above 300% of the exercise price for 20 consecutive trading days, and a cashless exercise option if a resale registration statement is not effective. The company agreed to file a resale registration statement for shares issuable upon exercise of the new warrants within 30 days of closing.

Insights

OS Therapies uses a warrant inducement to raise about $7.5M while issuing new five-year warrants.

OS Therapies has negotiated with fewer than 10 accredited holders of existing warrants covering up to 5,382,148 shares. By cutting the exercise price to $1.40 per share, the company encourages holders to exercise for cash during an inducement period running from January 10, 2026 to February 10, 2026. In exchange, the company will issue an equal number of new five-year warrants at the same exercise price, preserving potential future dilution.

The company expects gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million, less an 8.0% fee to the solicitation agent and up to $25,000 of expenses. Management plans to direct the net cash toward regulatory and pre-commercial work for OST-HER2 in recurrent lung metastatic osteosarcoma, funding preparations for an OS Animal Health spinoff, and general corporate needs. The actual impact depends on how many warrants are exercised or prefunded by the Final Funding Date.

The new warrants include a 4.99% (or optionally 9.99%) beneficial ownership cap, a forced exercise trigger if the share price reaches 300% of the exercise price for 20 consecutive trading days, and cashless exercise mechanics when resale registration is unavailable. A resale registration statement for new warrant shares is expected to be filed within 30 days of closing, and subsequent company disclosures will show how much of the inducement capacity was ultimately used.

CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K

 

OS Therapies Incorporated

 

January 10, 2026

  

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Warrant Exercise Inducement

 

On January 10, 2026, OS Therapies Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into inducement offer letter agreements (the “Inducement Letters”) with less than 10 accredited investors (the “Holders”) that hold certain existing warrants of the Company to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,382,148 shares of the Company’s common stock, originally issued to the Holders in connection with the Company’s previous warrant exercise inducement and exchange offerings held open from June 20, 2025 to July 10, 2025 and/or from August 29, 2025 to September 1, 2025 (the “Existing Warrants”).

 

Pursuant to the Inducement Letters, the Holders agreed to exercise for cash their Existing Warrants at a reduced exercise price of $1.40 per share (the “Inducement Exercise Price”) in consideration of the Company’s agreement to issue new common stock purchase warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,382,148 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “New Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $1.40 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein. The New Warrants will be immediately exercisable from the date of issuance and have a term of exercise of five years from such date.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise of any Existing Warrant by a Holder would have resulted in such Holder exceeding the beneficial ownership limitation contained in the Existing Warrants, the Holder agreed to pre-fund the exercise of its Existing Warrants for cash at the Inducement Exercise Price, less $0.001 per share. Upon such pre-funding, the exercise price of the Holder’s Existing Warrants will be reduced to $0.001 per share (the “Remaining Exercise Price”), and such Existing Warrants will become exercisable for the Company’s common stock solely at the Remaining Exercise Price.

 

The Company has engaged a Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”)-registered broker dealer and FINRA member (the “Solicitation Agent”) to act as its exclusive warrant solicitation agent in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Inducement Letters and has agreed to pay the Solicitation Agent a cash fee equal to 8.0% of the total gross cash proceeds received from the exercise or pre-funding by the Holders of their Existing Warrants during the Inducement Period (as defined below). The Company has also agreed to pay the Solicitation Agent up to $25,000 for its reasonable legal and other expenses.

 

The offering is being made to the Holders during the period beginning January 10, 2026 and ending at 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on February 10, 2026 (the “Termination Date” and, such period, the “Inducement Period”). The offering may be consummated in one or more closings with respect to exercises or pre-fundings of the Existing Warrants, at such times and in such amounts as determined at the mutual discretion of the Company and the Solicitation Agent, which may be held at any time during the Inducement Period or within two business days following the Termination Date. The Company may, at any time and from time to time, in its discretion and with the consent of the Solicitation Agent, extend, terminate or suspend the Inducement Period prior to the Termination Date, or extend the time for a closing, upon written notice to the Holders without any obligation to extend or reopen the Inducement Period or extend the time for a closing thereafter. The Company expects to receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million, before deducting Solicitation Agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds to support U.S. and international regulatory and pre-commercial efforts aimed at securing marketing authorizations for OST-HER2 in the prevention or delay of recurrent, fully resected, lung metastatic osteosarcoma, provide funding for the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary OS Animal Health’s proposed spinoff transaction preparations, and for general corporate purposes.

 

If the Company does not receive from the aggregate exercise price or pre-funding amount, as applicable, from a Holder within two business days following the Termination Date (“Final Funding Date”), the Company may, in its sole discretion, cancel the Holder’s warrant exercise or pre-funding, as applicable, in accordance with terms of the applicable Inducement Letter. Upon any such cancellation, such Holder has agreed to irrevocably waive any and all rights to any future adjustment of the exercise price or any other economic terms of such Holder’s Existing Warrants pursuant to Section 3(b) thereof, arising from or in connection with any issuance of securities or other transaction by the Company occurring after the Final Funding Date.

 

The resale of the shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Existing Warrants have been registered pursuant to existing registration statements on Form S-1 (File No. 333-289216) and Form S-3 (File No. 333-289443), declared effective by the SEC on each of August 12, 2025 and August 25, 2025, respectively.

   

The Company also agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or other appropriate form, including on Form S-1, if the Company is not then eligible to register securities on Form S-3) (the “Resale Registration Statement”) providing for the resale of the shares of common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants, within 30 calendar days of the closing, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Resale Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 60 calendar days (or within 90 calendar days in case of “full review” of the Resale Registration Statement by the SEC) following the initial filing of such Resale Registration Statement and to keep the Resale Registration Statement effective at all times until the earlier of (i) the time no holder of the New Warrants owns any New Warrants or New Warrant Shares and (ii) the Delegend Date (as defined in the Inducement Letters).

Terms of the New Warrants

 

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the New Warrants is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the New Warrants, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Duration and Exercise Price

 

Each New Warrant has an exercise price of $1.40 per share. The New Warrants are immediately exercisable from the date of issuance and expire five years from such date. The exercise price and number of New Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, reorganizations or similar events affecting the Company’s common stock and the exercise price.

 

Exercisability

 

The New Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of the Company’s common stock 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 such holder’s New Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, except that upon prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s New Warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the New Warrants, provided that any increase will not be effective until 61 days following notice to the Company.

 

Forced Exercise

 

The New Warrants provide that, at any time any New Warrants are outstanding, if the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable trading market equals or exceeds 300% of the exercise price then in effect for any 20 consecutive trading days, the Company may, subject to the satisfaction of certain equity conditions, require the holder to exercise all or a portion of the New Warrants for cash.

 

Cashless Exercise

 

If, at the time a holder exercises its New Warrants, a registration statement registering the resale of the New Warrant Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is not then effective or available, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company 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 New Warrants.

Rights as a Stockholder

 

Except as otherwise provided in the New Warrants or by virtue of the holder’s ownership of shares of the Company’s common stock, such holder of New Warrants does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of the Company’s common stock, including any voting rights, until such holder exercises such holder’s New Warrants. The New Warrants will provide that the holders of the New Warrants have the right to participate in distributions or dividends paid on shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

Fundamental Transactions

 

If at any time the New Warrants are outstanding, the Company, either directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effect a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the New Warrants), a holder of New Warrants will be entitled to receive, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if the Company is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of the Fundamental Transaction by such holder of the number of shares of common stock for which the New Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to the Fundamental Transaction. As an alternative, and at the holder’s option in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable fundamental transaction), the Company shall purchase the unexercised portion of the New Warrants from the holder by paying to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined in the New Warrants) of the remaining unexercised portion of the New Warrants on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction.

 

Waivers and Amendments

 

The New Warrants may be modified or amended or the provisions of the New Warrants waived with the Company’s and the holder’s written consent.

 

The forms of New Warrant and Inducement Letter are attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.1, respectively.
