Cytori intends to use the net proceeds for research and development, including the development of its current oncology pipeline, and to repay a portion of the amount outstanding under its Loan and Security Agreement, with Oxford Finance, LLC.</p>

Item 3.03.
Material Modification to Rights of Security
Holders.
To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information regarding the Certificate of Designation (as defined below) contained in Item 5.03 of this report is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On July 25, 2018, Cytori Therapeutics, Inc. ("Cytori") filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designation") with the Delaware Secretary of State creating a new series of its authorized preferred stock,
par value $0.001 per share, designated as the "Series C Convertible Preferred Stock" (the "Series C Preferred Stock"). The number of shares initially constituting the Series C Preferred Stock was set at 7,000 shares.
Each share of Series C Preferred Stock will be convertible, at Cytori's option at any time on or after the second anniversary of the closing of the Rights Offering (as defined below), subject to certain conditions, or at the option of the holder at any time, into the number of shares of Cytori's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") determined by dividing the $1,000 stated value per share of the Series C Preferred Stock by a conversion price of $0.7986 per share. In addition, the conversion price per share is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, distributions, subdivisions, combinations or reclassifications. Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of the Series C Preferred Stock will not have the right to convert any portion of the Series C Preferred Stock to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Cytori's Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to its conversion.
Subject to certain exceptions, if Cytori issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) for a consideration per share lower than the conversion price of the Series C Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale, or deemed issuance or sale, then the conversion price of the Series C Preferred Stock then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to such lower price pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation.
In the event Cytori effects certain mergers, consolidations, sales of substantially all of its assets, tender or exchange offers, reclassifications or share exchanges in which its Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, Cytori consummates a business combination in which another person acquires 50% of the outstanding shares of its Common Stock, or any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 50% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by Cytori's issued and outstanding Common Stock, then, upon any subsequent conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock will have the right to receive any shares of the acquiring corporation or other consideration it would have been entitled to receive if it had been a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion in full of the Series C Preferred Stock.
Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock.  Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law, the Series C Preferred Stock has no voting rights.  Upon Cytori's liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of Series C Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive out of Cytori's assets, whether capital or surplus, an amount equal to the $1,000 stated value per share for each share of Series C Preferred Stock before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any junior securities.  Cytori is not obligated to redeem or repurchase any shares of Series C Preferred Stock. Shares of Series C Preferred Stock are not otherwise entitled to any redemption rights, or mandatory sinking fund
or analogous fund provisions.
The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this report and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On July 24, 2018,
Cytori
and Maxim Group LLC ("Maxim")
entered into
an amendment
(the "Amendment") to the Dealer-Manager Agreement, dated June 22, 2018, by and between Cytori and Maxim, as dealer-manager
.
Under the
Amendment, t
he
Cytori
and its subsidiaries have agreed, for a period of 90 days from the date of the
closing of the Rights Offering (as defined below)
, not to issue, enter into any agreement to issue, or announce the issuance
or proposed issuance
of any Co
mmon Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable
or exchangeable
for Common Stock, subject to certain exceptions.
The foregoing description
of the Amendment
is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
Amend
ment
, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit
1
.1 to this report and incorporated by reference herein.
On July 25, 2018, Cytori completed its previously announced rights offering pursuant to its effective registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration Statement No. 333-224502), previously filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), together with the additional registration statement relating to the rights offering filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and a prospectus and prospectus supplement filed with the SEC (the "Rights Offering"). Pursuant to the Rights Offering, Cytori sold an aggregate of 6,723 units consisting of an aggregate of 6,723 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and 7,059,150 warrants, with each warrant exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.7986, from the date of issuance through its expiration 30 months from the date of issuance, resulting in net proceeds to Cytori of approximately $5.7 million, after deducting expenses relating to the Rights Offering, including dealer-manager fees and expenses, and excluding any proceeds received upon exercise of any warrants. Cytori intends to use the net proceeds for research and development, including the development of its current oncology pipeline, and to repay a portion of the amount outstanding under its Loan and Security Agreement, with Oxford Finance, LLC.
