Commission File No: 001-37367
Date: March 3, 2020
As previously announced, OpGen, Inc. (the
“Company”) commenced an at-the-market offering (the “ATM offering”) in February 2020, pursuant to which
the Company may offer and sell from time to time, at its option, up to an aggregate of $4.2 million of shares of the Company's
common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). As of March 3, 2020, the Company has issued and sold
2,276,956 shares of Common Stock in the ATM offering for gross proceeds of approximately $4.2 million.
In addition, since the proxy statement/prospectus
related to the previously announced business combination with Curetis GmbH (“Curetis”) was first mailed to stockholders
of the Company on or about January 27, 2020, the Company has issued 1,515,700 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of
outstanding warrants to purchase Common Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $3.0 million.
As a result of the above-referenced ATM
issuance and warrant exercises, upon closing of the business combination with Curetis, Curetis N.V. will now own approximately
22% of the Company’s Common Stock, assuming that OpGen does not issue additional shares before the closing.
