ECOR electroCore Inc

Item 8.01 Other Events

On July 15, 2019, electroCore, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the filing of a shelf-registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

On July 8, 2019, a purported stockholder of the Company served a putative class action lawsuit in the Superior Court of New Jersey for Somerset County captioned Paul Kuehl vs. electroCore, Inc., et al., Docket No. SOM L-000876-19 . In addition to the Company, the defendants include present and past directors and officers, the underwriters for the Company’s initial public offering, and two stockholders of the Company. The plaintiff seeks to represent a class of stockholders who purchased common stock of the Company in its initial public offering or whose purchases are traceable to that offering. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the registration statement and related prospectus for the initial public offering. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory damages, interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself; however, in light of, among other things, the preliminary stage of the litigation, the Company is unable to provide any assurances as to the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit and is unable to make a meaningful estimate of the amount or range of loss, if any, that could result from an unfavorable outcome.
