CUSIP No. 23666P 101



Preliminary Note: This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends the Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 28, 2017, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the SEC on April 15, 2019 (as heretofore amended, the “Schedule 13D”).
The Schedule 13D relates to the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Daré Bioscience, Inc. (the “Issuer”) owned by the Reporting Persons. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, items in the Schedule 13D are unchanged.
This Amendment reports a decrease in the Reporting Persons’ percentage of beneficial ownership of the outstanding Common Stock solely as a result of (1) the expiration and cancellation of options to purchase Common Stock previously held by Mr. Hawley and (2) the Issuer’s issuance of approximately 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with its acquisition of Microchips Biotech, Inc. as reported by the Issuer in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 21, 2019. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment that are not defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2.        Identity and Background
Paragraph (b) of Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with:
(b)    The principal business address for Mr. Hawley is 16044 Avenida Calma, Rancho Santa Fe, California 92091.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with:
The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of the Common Stock they beneficially own for investment purposes. Mr. Hawley holds certain voting powers with respect to the securities owned by him individually, by an individual retirement account for the benefit of Mr. Hawley, and by the Trust.
Mr. Hawley resigned from the Issuer’s board of directors and from all of its committees on July 11, 2019.
The Reporting Persons do not have any plan or proposal with respect to any action that would result in the occurrence of any of the matters enumerated under Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to formulate specific plans or proposals with respect to, or to change each of their intentions regarding, any or all of the foregoing.
Item 5.        Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Paragraphs (a) and (c) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended by supplementing them with:
All options owned by Mr. Hawley to purchase shares of Common Stock that were not vested and exercisable as of July 11, 2019 expired and were canceled as a result of Mr. Hawley’s resignation from the Issuer’s board of directors on that date. None of the options owned by Mr. Hawley to purchase shares of Common Stock that were vested and exercisable as of July 11, 2019 were exercised and all such options have expired and been canceled.
Paragraph (b) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with:
