Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously reported, on August 22, 2024, OpGen, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with AEI Capital Ltd. (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company had the right, in its discretion, to sell to the Purchaser, at any time prior to September 30, 2024, shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of the Company having an aggregate value of up to $3.0 million (the “Financing”). On October 3, 2024, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a First Amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amended the Purchase Agreement by: (1) granting the Company the right to sell two additional tranches of common stock to the Purchaser of $3.0 million each, for an aggregate amount of $9.0 million under the Purchase Agreement; and (2) extending the Company’s ability to sell shares of common stock to the Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement until December 31, 2025. On December 17, 2025, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a Supplemental Letter to the Purchase Agreement (the “Supplemental Letter”), which amended the Purchase Agreement by extending the Company’s ability to sell shares of common stock to the Purchaser until December 31, 2026.

 

The foregoing description of the Supplemental Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Supplemental Letter, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The disclosure required by this Item and included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report is incorporated herein by reference. The shares of common stock of the Company that may be sold under the Purchase Agreement, as amended, will be sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulations D and S promulgated thereunder as sales to accredited investors and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.

 

Item 5.02Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On December 18, 2025, David Lazar notified the Company of his resignation as President of the Company effective as of January 8, 2026. Mr. Lazar’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, or practices.
