Item 8.01. Other Events

On February 5, 2013, Organovo Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its intention to redeem two classes of outstanding warrants. Pursuant to a Notice of Redemption mailed to the affected warrant holders (the “Holders”) on February 5, 2013, the Holders will have until 5:00 p.m. ET on March 14, 2013 to exercise their outstanding warrants at $1.00 per share. Thereafter, any warrants that remain unexercised will automatically be redeemed by the Company at a redemption price of $0.0001 per share of common stock then issuable upon exercise of the redeemed warrant.

In the press release, the Company incorrectly estimated that approximately 2.9 million warrant shares were affected by the Notice of Redemption. The Company now estimates that approximately 2.4 million warrant shares are affected by the Notice of Redemption. As a result, if all warrant holders elect to exercise their warrants prior to the redemption date, approximately $2.4 million of additional equity capital will be raised by the Company without any increase to its fully diluted shares. If none of the warrant holders exercise their warrants prior to the redemption date the Company will redeem and cancel all affected warrants at an aggregate cost of approximately $243. Following the warrant redemption, warrants to purchase approximately 5.0 million shares will remain outstanding and are not affected by the redemption notice. These warrants were issued to the placement agent during the 2011 and 2012 private placement financings and to investors participating in a bridge financing the Company completed in November 2011.

The full text of the Company’s corrected press release regarding the announcement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
