This prospectus supplement (this “Second Sticker Supplement”) further amends, modifies, supersedes and supplements certain information contained in, and should be read in conjunction with, (i) our prospectus supplement dated May 20, 2024 (the “First Sticker Supplement”), (ii) our prospectus supplement, dated December 13, 2023 (the “Original Prospectus Supplement”), and (iii) the accompanying base prospectus, dated June 9, 2023 (the “Base Prospectus” and, collectively with the First Sticker Supplement and the Original Prospectus Supplement, the “Prospectus”). This Second Sticker Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus, and is qualified by reference thereto, except to the extent that the information herein amends or supersedes the information contained in the Prospectus. This Second Sticker Supplement is not complete without, and may only be delivered or utilized in connection with, the Prospectus, and any future amendments or supplements thereto. The information in this Second Sticker Supplement gives effect to the one-for-forty (1-for-40) reverse stock split of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, effected at 12:01 am Eastern Time on February 2, 2024.
In accordance with the terms of the At The Market Offering Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”), dated December 13, 2023, that we entered into with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), we may offer and sell shares of our common stock from time to time through Wainwright, acting as sales agent or principal, having an aggregate offering price of up to $2,328,685.
On April 1, 2024, the date we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, we became subject to the offering limits in General Instruction I.B.6 of Registration Statement on Form S-3.
We are filing this Second Sticker Supplement to amend the Prospectus to update the amount of our common stock we are eligible to sell under General Instruction I.B.6 to Form S-3. As a result of these limitations and the current public float of our common stock calculated as set forth below, and in accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $2,328,685 from time to time through Wainwright. If our public float increases such that we may sell additional amounts of common stock in excess of the aforementioned aggregate offering price as provided for in this Second Sticker Supplement under the Sales Agreement and the registration statement and Prospectus of which this Second Sticker Supplement and the Original Prospectus Supplement are a part, we will file another prospectus supplement prior to making such additional sales in excess of the aforementioned aggregate offering price as provided for in this Second Sticker Supplement.
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “GNPX”. On August 15, 2024, the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq was $0.6519 per share. As of the date of this Second Sticker Supplement, the aggregate market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or the public float, pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 was $7,952,767, which was calculated based on 3,598,537 shares of our common stock outstanding held by non-affiliates as of August 15, 2024 and at a price of $2.21 per share, the last reported sale price for our common stock on June 17, 2024. During the twelve (12) calendar months prior to and including the date of this Second Sticker Supplement, we have sold securities with an aggregate market value of approximately $322,236.95 pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3.
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk.
