Item 8.01 Other Matters.

On July 19, 2024, Allarity Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") received a "Wells Notice" from the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") relating to the Company's previously disclosed SEC investigation. The Wells Notice relates to the Company's disclosures regarding meetings with the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") regarding the Company's NDA for Dovitinib or Dovitinib-DRP, which was submitted to the FDA in 2021. The Company understands that all conduct relating to the SEC Wells Notice occurred during or prior to fiscal year 2022. Allarity also understands that three of its former officers received Wells Notices from the SEC relating to the same conduct. A Wells Notice is neither a formal charge of wrongdoing nor a final determination that the recipient has violated any law. The Wells Notice informed the Company that the SEC Staff has made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against the Company that would allege certain violations of the federal securities laws. The Company is continuing to cooperate with the SEC and maintains that its actions were appropriate, and intends to pursue the Wells Notice process, including submitting a formal response to the SEC.
