Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement
On March 25, 2025, Tenon Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Purchaser, (i) in a registered direct offering (x) 615,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and (y) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 118,500 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants Shares”), and (iii) in a concurrent private placement, common warrants (the “Common Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 733,500 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrant Shares”), with an exercise price of $2.00. Such registered direct offering and concurrent private placement are collectively referred to in this Current Report on Form 8-K as the “Offerings.”
The Offerings closed on March 26, 2025 and the Company received aggregate gross proceeds from the Offerings of approximately $1.46 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Shares, Pre-Funded Warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants are being offered by the Company pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-271648), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 17, 2023 (as amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”). The Common Warrants are being issued in a concurrent private placement and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and are instead being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. The Common Warrants are exercisable immediately, and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, until 60 days following the date of effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement defined in the Warrant Inducement Agreement entered into by the Company on March 11, 2025, the Company has agreed not to issue (or enter into any agreement to issue) any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), subject to certain exceptions, provided, however, that the prohibition on “at the market offerings” shall expire fifteen (15) days following the closing date of the Offerings (the “Closing Date”).
A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners acted as the exclusive placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) on a “reasonable best efforts” basis, in connection with the Offerings pursuant to that certain placement agency agreement, dated March 25, 2025 (the “Placement Agency Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Placement Agent. Pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, the Placement Agent will received a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds paid to the Company for the securities sold in the Offerings, $10,000 in non-accountable expenses, and reimbursement of certain out-of-pocket expenses up to a maximum of $50,000.
In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, if the Company, within six (6) months after the Closing Date, effects a sale of any securities with a party brought “over-the-wall” by the Placement Agent in connection with the Offerings, the Company will pay to the Placement Agent the same consideration that the Placement Agent received in the Offerings, upon the completion of such transaction.
1
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to file a resale registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (the “Resale Registration Statement”) to register the resale of the Common Warrant Shares as soon as practicable (and in any event within 30 calendar days following the date of the Purchase Agreement), and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Resale Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission and to keep such registration statement effective at all times until the Purchasers no longer owns any Common Warrants or Common Warrant Shares. The Company intends to register the Common Warrant Shares and the Placement Agent Warrant Shares on the Resale Registration Statement.
The foregoing summaries of the Offerings, including the securities to be issued in connection therewith, the forms of Placement Agency Agreement, Common Warrants, Pre-Funded Warrants and Purchase Agreement, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the definitive transaction documents, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 4.2, and 10.1, respectively, and are each incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01. Other Events.
On March 25, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offerings described in Item 1.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, a copy of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
