Item 1.01  
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On July 26, 2017, CEL-SCI Corporation (“CEL-SCI”) entered into a securities purchase agreement with an investor whereby it sold 100,000 shares of its common stock for gross proceeds of $229,000, or $2.29 per share, in a registered offering. The closing of the offering is expected to take place on or about July 31, 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
 
In a concurrent private placement, CEL-SCI also issued to the purchaser of CEL-SCI’s common stock referred to in the preceding paragraph warrants (Series OO) to purchase 60,000 shares of CEL-SCI’s common stock. The warrants can be exercised at a price of $2.52 per share, commencing six months after the date of issuance and ending five years after the date of issuance. The warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants are being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.
 
The net proceeds to CEL-SCI from the transaction, after deducting CEL-SCI’s estimated offering expenses, are expected to be approximately $207,000. CEL-SCI intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for its clinical trials and general corporate purposes.  CEL-SCI has not yet determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for any of the foregoing purposes.
 
The shares of common stock were offered and sold by CEL-SCI pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 1, 2015 and subsequently declared effective on October 30, 2015 (File No. 333-205444). CEL-SCI will file a prospectus supplement and an accompanying prospectus with the SEC in connection with the sale of the common stock.
 
CEL-SCI will not pay any commissions in connection with the sale of common stock or warrants.
