Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 8, 2022, Heart Test Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), issued in the Company’s private placement of securities pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of December 22, 2021 (the “SPA,” and such warrants issued thereunder, the “Bridge Warrants”). The Bridge Warrants were issued to the buyers under the SPA along with 8% secured subordinated convertible notes (the “Bridge Notes”), which subsequently converted into shares of Common Stock upon the Company’s initial public offering on June 15, 2022 (the “IPO”).
Upon the IPO, pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Warrants, the holders of the Bridge Warrants became entitled to purchase a total of 1,365,960 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.16 per share, subject to antidilution provisions with respect to the number of shares issuable upon exercise and full ratchet price protection on the exercise price whenever the Company issues shares of Common Stock for consideration per share less than the exercise price then in effect.
The Amendment, which has been executed by the Company and the lead investor under the SPA, significantly simplifies the Bridge Warrants and makes their terms more consistent with the warrants issued in the IPO. As a result of the Amendment:
The Company will issue new amended and restated Bridge Warrants reflecting the amendments set forth in the Amendment to the holders in exchange for the original Bridge Warrants.
Matthews Holdings Southwest, Inc., a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, and Patrick Kanouff, a director of the Company, are holders of Bridge Warrants. There are no other material relationships between the Company or its affiliates and any of the holders of the Bridge Warrants other than in respect of the SPA, the transactions contemplated thereunder and beneficial ownership of securities of the Company.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information contained above in Item 1.01 in relation to the Amendment, the amended and restated Bridge Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The Amendment, including the issuance of the amended and restated Bridge Warrants, is being completed in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering. In accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the securities are being exchanged by the Company with its existing security
holders in a transaction where no commission or other remuneration is being paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange. The amended and restated Bridge Warrants will take on the registered characteristics of the original Bridge Warrants and, accordingly, will be issued by the Company with the same restrictive legends as the original Bridge Warrants.
Upon the IPO, the Bridge Note of an investor was converted into 342,489 shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 77,443 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “IPO Conversion”). Subsequent to the IPO Conversion, the Company discovered an error in the IPO Conversion and determined that, due to a provision in the Bridge Notes limiting the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Bridge Notes may be converted, the investor’s Bridge Note should have been converted into 61,913 fewer shares of Common Stock and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 61,913 more shares of Common Stock than issued at the time of the IPO. In order to comply with the terms of the Bridge Notes and to correct the error, the Company and the investor have acknowledged and agreed that 61,913 of the Conversion Shares will be cancelled and be deemed null and void, ab initio, from the time of the IPO Conversion, and the Company will issue a Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Additional Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase 61,913 shares of Common Stock to the investor. The exercise price under the Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.0001 per share of Common Stock. The form of Pre-Funded Warrant was filed as Exhibit 4.5 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 17, 2022, and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Additional Pre-Funded Warrant is being issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof, which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.
Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the disclosures set forth above in Items 1.01 and 3.02 are incorporated by reference in this Item 3.03.

Exhibit 4.1
AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO
WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
This AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK (this “Amendment”), dated as of September 8, 2022 (the “Amendment Date”), is by and between Heart Test Laboratories, Inc. (d/b/a HeartSciences), a Texas corporation (the “Company”), and Cavalry Investment Fund, LP (the “Holder”).
Recitals
WHEREAS, the Company previously issued a new series of senior subordinated convertible notes (“Bridge Notes”), which were convertible into shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company, and warrants (“Original Bridge Warrants”, and such Original Bridge Warrants as amended by this Amendment are referred to herein as the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of December 22, 2021 (the “SPA”) by and among the Company and the Buyers (as defined in the SPA);
WHEREAS, effective June 10, 2022, the Company consummated a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its Common Stock whereby every 33 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock were combined into one share of Common Stock, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split resulted in any of the Company’s shareholders owning a fractional share, in which case, if such fraction was greater than or equal to one-half, the shareholder received one additional share of Common Stock and if such fraction was less than one-half, the fractional share was cancelled;
WHEREAS, on June 15, 2022, the Company completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of a total of 1,500,000 units each consisting of one share of Common Stock and one warrant (the “Public Warrants”) to purchase one share of Common Stock, and of an additional 225,000 Public Warrants pursuant to the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters;
WHEREAS, in connection with and as a result of the IPO and pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Notes and the Original Bridge Warrants, the Bridge Notes were converted into 1,606,027 shares of Common Stock and 77,443 Pre-Funded Warrants (as defined in the SPA) and the holders of the Original Bridge Warrants became entitled to purchase a total of 1,365,960 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.16 per share;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9 of the Original Bridge Warrants, the provisions of the Original Bridge Warrants may be amended only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the SPA), which as of the date hereof will be satisfied by the execution and delivery by the Holder of this Amendment;
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to amend the Original Bridge Warrants as set forth in this Amendment;
WHEREAS, the Holder desires to consent to the amendments to the Original Bridge Warrants set forth in this Amendment and, as a result, each of the Original Bridge Warrants shall be amended as set forth in this Amendment;
WHEREAS, the Company and the Holder desire (i) to amend the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares (as defined below) for which each of the Warrants is exercisable, as agreed upon by the Company and the Holder as set forth in this Amendment and (ii) to make certain other amendments to each of the Original Bridge Warrants, as set forth in this Amendment; and
WHEREAS, as a result of this Amendment, as of the Amendment Date of this Amendment, the number of shares of Common Stock that each of the holders of the Original Bridge Warrants (each a “Warrant Holder” and, collectively, the “Warrant Holders”) is entitled to purchase from the Company upon exercise of the Warrants, at the Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants), is equal to the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock set forth next to such Warrant Holder’s name on Exhibit A hereto (the “Warrant Shares”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Agreement
- 2 -
- 3 -
“Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $4.25, subject to adjustment as provided herein.”
“Adjustment Upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. If and whenever on or after the Subscription Date and prior to June 15, 2023 (the “IPO Anniversary Date”), the Company
- 4 -
grants, issues or sells (or enters into any agreement to grant, issue or sell), or in accordance with this Section 2 is deemed to have granted, issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding any Excluded Securities granted issued or sold or deemed to have been granted issued or sold) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) that when multiplied by 1.25 is less than a price equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such granting, issuance or sale or deemed granting issuance or sale (80% of the Exercise Price then in effect is referred to herein as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to 125% of the New Issuance Price. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Exercise Price and the New Issuance Price under this Section 2(b)), the following shall be applicable:”
“Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, solely with respect to the initial public offering of the Company and not with respect to any subsequent Dilutive Issuance, the value of each share of Common Stock and each warrant sold in such initial public offering shall be deemed to be $4.125 and $0.125, respectively.”
“Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 2(a), the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein). Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, there shall be no adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares in connection with an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to any Subsection of this Section 2 (including, without limitation, Section 2(f)) other than Section 2(a).”
“Holder’s Right of Alternative Exercise Price Following Issuance of Certain Options or Convertible Securities. In addition to and not in limitation of the other provisions of this Section 2, if the Company in any manner issues or sells or enters into any agreement to issue or sell, any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (any such securities, “Variable Price Securities”) after the Subscription Date and prior to the IPO Anniversary Date that are issuable pursuant to such agreement or convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock at a price which varies or may vary with the market price of the shares of Common Stock, including by way of one or more reset(s) to a fixed price, but exclusive of such formulations reflecting customary anti-dilution provisions (such as share splits, share combinations, share dividends and similar transactions) (each of the formulations for such variable price being herein referred to as,
- 5 -
the “Variable Price”), the Company shall provide written notice thereof via e-mail and overnight courier to the Holder on the date of such agreement and the issuance of such Convertible Securities or Options. From and after the date the Company enters into such agreement or issues any such Variable Price Securities until the IPO Anniversary Date, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion to substitute an amount equal to 125% of the Variable Price for the Exercise Price upon exercise of this Warrant by designating in the Exercise Notice delivered upon any exercise of this Warrant that solely for purposes of such exercise the Holder is relying on an amount equal to 125% of the Variable Price rather than the Exercise Price then in effect. The Holder’s election to rely on an amount equal to 125% of the Variable Price for a particular exercise of this Warrant shall not obligate the Holder to rely on an amount equal to 125% of the Variable Price for any future exercises of this Warrant.”
“Stock Combination Event Adjustment. If at any time and from time to time on or after the Issuance Date and prior to the IPO Anniversary Date there occurs any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the Common Stock (each, a “Stock Combination Event”, and such date thereof, the “Stock Combination Event Date”) and 125% of the Event Market Price is less than the Exercise Price then in effect (after giving effect to the adjustment in clause 2(a) above), then on the sixteenth (16th) Trading Day immediately following such Stock Combination Event, the Exercise Price then in effect on such sixteenth (16th) Trading Day (after giving effect to the adjustment in clause 2(a) above) shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to 125% the Event Market Price. For the avoidance of doubt, if the adjustment in the immediately preceding sentence would otherwise result in an increase in the Exercise Price hereunder, no adjustment shall be made.”
“Upon the occurrence of a Qualified Offering that is consummated prior to the IPO Anniversary Date, if 125% of the New Issuance Price of such Qualified Offering (the “QO Measuring Price”) is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, immediately following the time of consummation of such Qualified Offering, the Exercise Price shall automatically lower to the QO Measuring Price. For the avoidance of doubt, “QO Measuring Price” refers to 125% of the applicable New Issuance Price.”
“an expected volatility equal to the greater of 75% and the 30 day volatility obtained from the “HVT” function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the date of issuance of such Option, Convertible Security or Adjustment Right (as the case may be).”
- 6 -
“an expected volatility equal to the greater of 75% and the 30 day volatility obtained from the “HVT” function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the earliest to occur of (A) the public disclosure of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and (B) the date of the Holder’s request pursuant to Section 4(c)(i).”
“an expected volatility equal to the greater of 75% and the 30 day volatility obtained from the “HVT” function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following later of (x) the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default and (y) the date of the public announcement of such Event of Default.”
