Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
 
 
On May 5, 2014, Aeolus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) executed a Modification of Contract (the “Modification”) with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”).  The purpose of the Modification is to 1) make available $1,777,882.00 to reimburse the Company for actual costs incurred under the first three years of its contract with BARDA (the “BARDA Contract”), 2) establish an increased provisional indirect billing rate for FY2014 and the rest of the BARDA Contract period of performance, and 3) establish a cap on the indirect billing rate for the remaining contract period of performance.
 
 
The Company has submitted an invoice to BARDA for payment of the $1,777,882.00.
 
 
The effect of the Modification will be (a) to increase the cash balance of the Company and (b) to increase the billing rate for indirect costs under the contract.  The Company believes the combination of the cash payment and increased billing rates will give it sufficient capital to fund operations for at least two years.
