Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 1, 2026, Entera Bio Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with
funds affiliated with BVF Partners LP (collectively, the “Purchaser”), providing for the private placement (the “Private Placement”) to the Purchaser of an aggregate of 7,827,789 units (collectively, the “Units”),
each Unit consisting of (i) one ordinary share, par value NIS 0.0000769 per share, of the Company (an “Ordinary Share”) (or, in lieu thereof, one
pre-funded warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”)) and (ii) one warrant to purchase one and a half Ordinary Shares (the “Ordinary Share Warrant”), for aggregate proceeds of approximately $10.0 (or $1.2775 per Unit). The closing of the Private Placement occurred on April 2, 2026
(the “Closing Date”).
The Purchaser elected to receive a combination of Ordinary Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu of Ordinary Shares. The
Pre-Funded Warrants may not be exercised if the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the holder thereof, together with its affiliates, would exceed 4.99% immediately after exercise thereof, subject to increases not in
excess of 19.99% at the option of the holder. Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of NIS 0.0000769 per Ordinary Share, is immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time and has no expiration date, and is subject to customary
adjustments.
Each Ordinary Share Warrant has an exercise price of $1.24 per share, becomes exercisable six months following the Closing Date,
expires five years from the date of issuance, and is subject to customary adjustments. The Ordinary Share Warrants purchased by the Purchaser contain a provision pursuant to which such Ordinary Share Warrants may not be exercised if the
aggregate number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the holder thereof, together with its affiliates, would exceed 4.99% immediately after exercise thereof, subject to increases not in excess of 19.99% at the option of the holder. Subject
to the availability of an effective registration statement with respect to the resale of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Ordinary Share Warrants, such warrants may be exercised only for cash. If all Ordinary Share Warrants
were exercised for cash, then the Company would expect to receive additional proceeds of approximately $14.5 million.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to support activities related to initiation of the
Company’s phase 3 registrational study of EB613 in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and for general working capital and corporate purposes.
The securities issued to the Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement were offered in reliance on an exemption from registration
provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company relied on this exemption from registration
based in part on representations made by the Purchaser, including that the Purchaser is an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act.
The sale of the securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement has not been registered under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K, nor the exhibits attached hereto, is an
offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein or therein.
On the Closing Date, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to prepare and file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later
than 30 days following the Closing Date, to register the resale of the Ordinary Shares included in the Units and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Ordinary Share Warrants. The Company has agreed to use
its reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as promptly as possible after the filing thereof. Holders of the Ordinary Share Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants may exercise such warrants on a cashless
basis at such time as there is no effective registration statement with respect to the resale of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise thereof.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Ordinary Share Warrants and the Registration
Rights Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated
by reference herein.
