 EXPLANATORY NOTE

 Seelos Therapeutics, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("we," "us," "our," the "Company" or "Seelos") is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this
 "Amendment") to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 ("Fiscal 2023"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 6, 2024 (the "Original Form 10-K").

 The purpose of this Amendment is solely to disclose the information required in Part III (Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14) of Form 10-K, which information
 was previously omitted from the Original Form 10-K in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K. Accordingly, we hereby amend and restate in its entirety Part III of the Original Form 10-K.

 In addition, pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Item 15 of Part IV has been amended and restated in its entirety to include the currently dated
 certifications of the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer required under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does
 not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. In addition, this Amendment does not include the certificate under Section 906 of the
 Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment.

 Except as described above or as otherwise expressly provided by the terms of this Amendment, no other changes have been made to the Original Form 10-K.
 Except as otherwise indicated herein, this Amendment continues to speak as of the date of the Original Form 10-K, and we have not updated the disclosure contained therein to reflect any events that occurred subsequent to the filing date of the
 Original Form 10-K. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing date of the Original Form 10-K.

 Corporate Governance Matters

 Code of Ethics

 We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our Chief Executive Officer and to all of our directors and employees. The Code of Ethics, as amended
 and restated, is available on our website at www.seelostherapeutics.com/corporate-governance/. We will disclose future amendments to, or waivers from, certain provisions of our Code of Ethics, if any, on the above website within four business days
 following the date of such amendment or waiver. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not intended to be incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and references to our website address in
 this Annual Report on Form 10-K are inactive textual references only.

 Audit Committee

 The Audit Committee regularly meets with our financial and accounting management and independent auditors and is responsible for the selection and
 engagement of our independent auditors. Additionally, the Audit Committee reviews with the independent auditors the scope and results of the audit engagement, approves professional services provided by the independent auditors, reviews the
 independence of the independent auditors and reviews the adequacy of the internal accounting controls. The Audit Committee acts under a written charter, a copy of which is available on our website at www.seelostherapeutics.com/corporate-governance/.

 During fiscal 2023, the Audit Committee met four times and did not take any action by unanimous written consent. As of April 29, 2024, the Audit Committee consisted of Brian Lian, Ph. D. (Chair), Margaret Dalesandro, Ph. D., and Richard W. Pascoe,

 Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

 Base Salary

 In general, base salaries for our Named Executive Officers are approved by the Compensation Committee and are initially established through arm's
 length negotiation at the time the executive is hired, taking into account such executive's qualifications, experience, prior salary and market pay levels. Base salaries of our Named Executive Officers are approved and reviewed annually by our
 Compensation Committee and adjustments to base salaries are based on the scope of an executive's responsibilities, individual contribution, prior experience and sustained performance. Decisions regarding salary increases may take into account an
 executive officer's current salary, equity ownership, and the amounts paid to an executive officer's peers inside our Company by conducting an internal analysis, which compares the pay of an executive officer to other members of the management
 team. Base salaries are also reviewed in the case of promotions or other significant changes in responsibility. Base salaries are not automatically increased if the Compensation Committee believes that other elements of the Named Executive
 Officers' compensation are more appropriate in light of our stated objectives. This strategy is consistent with our intent of offering compensation that is both cost-effective, competitive and contingent on the achievement of performance
 objectives.

 Effective January 1, 2023, Dr. Mehra's base salary was increased from $561,688 to $586,964 and Mr. Golembiewski's base salary was increased from
 $317,125 to $375,000.

 Annual Cash Incentive

 We also generally provide executive officers with annual performance-based cash bonuses, which are specifically designed to reward executives for our
 overall performance in a given year. Corporate goals are established by the Compensation Committee with input from senior management and approved by the full Board.

 The Compensation Committee considers our overall performance for the preceding fiscal year in deciding whether to award a bonus and, if one is to be
 awarded, the amount of the bonus. The annual cash bonus for each executive officer is based 100% on our overall performance. The Compensation Committee retains the ability to apply discretion in making adjustments to the final bonus payouts. The
 evaluation of our performance for 2023 bonus purposes was based on a qualitative evaluation for the Named Executive Officers after the start of the fiscal year. For fiscal year 2023, Dr. Mehra's target bonus percentage was 55% of his base salary
 and Mr. Golembiewski's target bonus percentage was 40% of his base salary. The Compensation Committee determined not to pay bonuses for 2023.

 Equity Compensation

 The Compensation Committee considers equity incentives to be important in aligning the interests of our executive officers with those of our
 stockholders. As part of our pay-for-performance philosophy, our compensation program tends to emphasize the long-term equity award component of total compensation packages paid to our executive officers.

 Because vesting is based on continued employment, our equity-based incentives also encourage the retention of our Named Executive Officers through the
 vesting period of the awards. In determining the size of the long-term equity incentives to be awarded to our Named Executive Officers, we take into account a number of internal factors, such as the relative job scope, the value of existing
 long-term incentive awards, individual performance history, prior contributions to us and the size of prior grants. Based upon these factors, the Compensation Committee determines the size of the long-term equity incentives at levels it considers
 appropriate to create a meaningful opportunity for reward predicated on the creation of long-term stockholder value.

 To reward and retain our Named Executive Officers in a manner that best aligns employees' interests with stockholders' interests, we have used stock
 options as the primary incentive vehicles for long-term compensation and may in the future use restricted stock unit awards. We believe that stock options and restricted stock unit awards are effective tools for meeting our compensation goal of
 increasing long-term stockholder value by tying the value of the stock to our future performance. Because employees are able to profit from stock options only if our stock price increases relative to the stock option's exercise price, we believe
 stock options provide meaningful incentives to employees to achieve increases in the value of our stock over time.

 We have used stock options and restricted stock unit awards to
 compensate our Named Executive Officers both in the form of initial grants in connection with the commencement of employment and annual refresher grants. Annual grants of equity awards are typically approved by the Compensation Committee during
 the end of the last quarter, or the beginning of the first quarter, of each year. While we intend that the majority of equity awards to our employees be made pursuant to initial grants or our annual grant program, the Compensation Committee
 retains discretion to grant equity awards to employees at other times, including in connection with the promotion of an employee, to reward an employee, for retention purposes or for other circumstances recommended by management or the
 Compensation Committee. In 2023, we granted: (i) options to purchase 167,193 shares of our common stock ("Common Stock") under our Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Amended and Restated 2012 Plan"), to our
 employees, including grants of options to purchase 88,271 shares of our Common Stock to our Named Executive Officers and (ii) options to purchase 6,668 shares of our Common Stock under the Amended and Restated 2012 Plan to our non-employee
 directors pursuant to our non-employee director compensation policy. We did not grant any option awards under our 2019 Inducement Plan (the "Inducement Plan") to new employees or grant any restricted stock unit awards in 2023. In order to
 compensate our executive officers fairly for the time, effort and accountability required and align their interests with those of our stockholders, the Compensation Committee approved an annual grant of options to purchase 62,745 shares and
 25,526 shares of our Common Stock to Dr. Mehra and Mr. Golembiewski, respectively, in 2023.

 The exercise price of each stock option grant is the fair market value of our Common Stock on the grant date. Time-based stock option awards granted
 to our Named Executive Officers generally vest over a four-year period as follows: 25% of the shares underlying the option vest on the first anniversary of the date of the vesting commencement date and the remainder of the shares underlying the
 option vest in equal monthly installments over the remaining 36 months thereafter. From time to time, our Compensation Committee may, however, determine that a different vesting schedule is appropriate. We do not have any stock ownership
 requirements for our Named Executive Officers.

 Employee Benefit Program

 Our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in all of our employee benefit plans, including medical, dental, vision, group life,
 disability and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, in each case on the same basis as other employees, subject to applicable law. We also provide vacation and other paid holidays to all employees, including executive officers. These
 benefit programs are designed to enable us to attract and retain our workforce in a competitive marketplace. Health, welfare and vacation benefits ensure that we have a productive and focused workforce through reliable and competitive health and
 other benefits.

 Our retirement savings plan (401(k) Plan) is a tax-qualified retirement savings plan, pursuant to which eligible employees can begin to participate
 immediately upon employment. The 401(k) Plan elective deferrals and employer contributions are subject to compensation limitations and annual maximum contribution limits as governed by Internal Revenue Service. Employees are eligible to defer up
 to 100% of compensation and we make safe harbor matching contributions of a 100% match of the first 3% of compensation contributed, then a 50% match of the next 2% of compensation contributed.

 Clawback Policy

 Effective October 1, 2023, our Board of Directors adopted a restated compensation recovery ("clawback") policy pursuant to the listing standards
 approved by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC implementing Rule 10D-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The clawback policy is administered by our Compensation Committee and applies to current and former
 executive officers of the Company as defined in Rule 10D-1 (each an "Affected Officer"). U nder the clawback policy, if the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement to correct the Company's material
 noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under securities laws, including restatements that correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements or that would
 result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period (collectively, a "Restatement"), the Company is obligated to recover erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation
 received from the Company by Affected Officers. Incentive-based compensation includes any compensation that is granted, earned or vested based in whole or in part on the attainment of a financial reporting measure. Erroneously awarded
 incentive-based compensation is the amount of incentive-based compensation received that exceeds the amount of incentive-based compensation that otherwise would have been received had it been determined based on an applicable Restatement.

 Hedging and Pledging Prohibitions

 Our insider trading policy prohibits our directors, officers (including our executive officers), employees and consultants, including those who serve
 in such capacities with any of our subsidiaries ("Persons Covered"), from engaging in short sales of our securities and from engaging in transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivative securities, on an exchange or
 in any other organized market. Without first obtaining pre-clearance of the transaction from our Insider Trading Compliance officer, the Persons Covered may not engage in any transaction involving our securities, including an option exercise, or a
 gift, loan, pledge or hedge, contribution to a trust or any other transfer. Our insider trading policy also applies to the family members who reside with the Persons Covered, anyone else who lives in their household and any family members who do
 not live in their household but whose transactions in our securities are directed by the Persons Covered or are subject to their influence or control.

 Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

 We have entered into employment agreements with each of our Named Executive Officers. These agreements set forth the individual's base salary, annual
 incentive opportunities, equity compensation and other employee benefits, which are described in this Executive Compensation section. All employment agreements provide for "at-will" employment, meaning that either party can terminate the
 employment relationship at any time, although our agreements with our Named Executive Officers provide that the applicable Named Executive Officer would be eligible for severance benefits in certain circumstances following a termination of
 employment without cause. Our Compensation Committee approved the severance benefits to mitigate certain risks associated with working in a biopharmaceutical company at our current stage of development and to help attract and retain our Named
 Executive Officers.

 Raj Mehra, Ph. D. Employment Agreement

 On March 20, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Raj Mehra, Ph. D., pursuant to which Dr. Mehra previously served as our President, Chief
 Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and Interim Chief Financial Officer. On January 10, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Dr. Mehra (the "CEO Employment Agreement"), which provides that Dr. Mehra will
 continue to serve as our President and Chief Executive Officer. The CEO Employment Agreement provides that Dr. Mehra's initial annual base salary was $561,688 and that he will be eligible to receive an initial annual performance bonus of 50% of
 his base salary. Effective January 1, 2023, Dr. Mehra's base salary was increased to $586,964 and his annual performance bonus percentage was increased to up to 55% of his base salary. Dr. Mehra's employment is for a current term of three years
 from March 20, 2022 and is on an "at will" basis.

 Pursuant to the CEO Employment Agreement, if Dr. Mehra is terminated by us without cause or by Dr. Mehra for good reason (a "Covered Termination")
 outside of the period commencing three months prior to a change in control and ending 12 months after a change in control (a "Change in Control Period"), we will pay to Dr. Mehra an amount equal to the sum of his annual base salary and the annual
 bonus earned by Dr. Mehra for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the termination occurs, and a pro-rata portion of his earned annual bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs. Additionally, the vesting
 of any outstanding equity awards that are scheduled to vest solely subject to continued service or employment shall accelerate so that such awards shall be vested to the same extent as if Dr. Mehra had provided an additional 12 months of service
 from the date of his termination. We will also either continue to provide Dr. Mehra and his dependents coverage under our group health plan at our sole expense or reimburse Dr. Mehra for such coverage for 12 months from the date of termination.

 The CEO Employment Agreement also provides that if Dr. Mehra experiences a Covered Termination during a Change in Control Period, we will pay to Dr.
 Mehra an amount equal to 1.5 times the sum of his annual base salary and the annual bonus earned by Dr. Mehra for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the termination occurs, and a pro-rata portion of his earned annual
 bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs. Additionally, the vesting of any outstanding equity awards that are scheduled to vest solely subject to continued service or employment shall accelerate so that such awards shall be fully
 vested. We will also either continue to provide Dr. Mehra and his dependents coverage under our group health plan at our sole expense or reimburse Dr. Mehra for such coverage for 18 months from the date of termination.

 Michael Golembiewski Employment Agreement

 On January 16, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Michael Golembiewski (the "Golembiewski Employment Agreement"), pursuant to which Mr.
 Golembiewski initially served as our Vice President of Finance. The agreement provides for "at-will" employment and sets forth certain agreed upon terms and conditions of employment. Mr. Golembiewski's initial annual base salary was $200,000 and
 he was eligible to receive an initial discretionary annual bonus in an amount up to 30% of his base salary. In connection with Mr. Golembiewski's promotion to our Chief Financial Officer, effective September 1, 2021, his base salary was increased
 to $295,000. Effective January 1, 2022, Mr. Golembiewski's base salary was increased to $317,125 and effective January 1, 2023, Mr. Golembiewski's base salary was further increased to $375,000 and his annual performance bonus percentage was
 increased to up to 40% of his base salary.

 Pursuant to the Golembiewski Employment Agreement, if Mr. Golembiewski is terminated by us without cause upon, or within 12 months following, a change
 of control, we will pay to Mr. Golembiewski an amount equal to his then current monthly salary for a period of three months following his employment termination date as severance; provided that Mr. Golembiewski has (i) returned to us all our
 property in his possession, and (ii) executed and delivered to us a general release of all claims that he may have against us or persons affiliated with us.

 Director Compensation

 We have adopted a non-employee director compensation policy pursuant to which our non-employee directors are eligible to receive cash and equity
 compensation.

 As previously disclosed, on March 15, 2021, the Compensation Committee revised our non-employee director compensation policy, effective as of April 1,
 2021, to increase the cash portion of the annual retainer payable to our non-employee directors and to increase the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable to our non-employee directors pursuant to initial option award grants and annual
 option award grants. Effective April 1, 2021, our non-employee directors are entitled to an annual retainer of $40,000 for service on the Board, an annual retainer of an additional $40,000 for service as the Chairman of the Board, an annual
 retainer of $15,000 for service as the Chair of the Audit Committee, an annual retainer of $7,500 for service as a member of the Audit Committee (excluding the Chair of the committee), an annual retainer of $12,000 for service as the Chair of the
 Compensation Committee, an annual retainer of $6,000 for service as a member of the Compensation Committee (excluding the Chair of the committee), an annual retainer of $8,000 for service as the Chair of the Corporate Governance/Nominating
 Committee and an annual retainer of $4,000 for service as a member of the Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee (excluding the Chair of the committee), and equity compensation in the form of an option to purchase 42,000 shares of our Common
 Stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions) upon election or appointment to the Board (the "Initial Grants") and an annual option to purchase 35,000 shares of our Common Stock
 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions) (the "Annual Grants"). The Initial Grants will vest at rate of one-third of the shares subject to the option on the one-year anniversary of
 the date of grant and 1/36th of the shares subject to the option on a monthly basis over the following 24 months. The Annual Grants will vest at a rate of 1/12th per month from the date of grant.

 On December 21, 2022, the Compensation Committee further revised our non-employee director compensation policy, effective as of January 1, 2023, to
 increase the number of shares of our Common Stock subject to (i) Annual Grants to non-employ-ee directors from 35,000 shares of Common Stock to 50,000 shares of Common Stock; and (ii) Initial Grants to new non-employee directors from 42,000 shares
 of Common Stock to 75,000 shares of Common Stock. The cash component of the compensation under the non-employee director compensation policy did not change.

 ITEM 13.

 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 Director Independence

 Our Board has determined that each of Mr. Pascoe and Drs. Lian and Dalesandro met the definitions of independence under the Nasdaq Rules and Section
 10A-3 of the Exchange Act, as of April 29, 2024. Accordingly, all of our directors, other than our Chief Executive Officer and President, Dr. Mehra, and Daniel J. O'Connor, are deemed to be independent.

 Review and Approval of Transactions with Related Persons

 Our Board has adopted a written policy and procedures for review, approval and monitoring of transactions involving us and "related persons"
 (directors, executive officers and stockholders owning 5% or greater of our outstanding Common Stock and immediate family members of any of the foregoing). The policy covers any related person transaction that meets the minimum threshold for
 disclosure in our proxy statement under our policy addressing the relevant SEC rules (generally, transactions involving amounts exceeding $120,000 in which a related person has a direct or indirect material interest). Related person transactions
 must be approved by the Board or by the Audit Committee consisting solely of independent directors, which will approve the transaction if they determine that it is in our best interests. The Board or the Audit Committee will periodically monitor
 the transaction to ensure that there are no changes that would render it advisable for us to amend or terminate the transaction.

 Transactions with Related Persons

 Employment Agreements

 The employment agreements we have entered into with our Named Executive Officers provide for severance benefits in specified circumstances, as well as
 benefits in connection with a change in control. See the section of Part III, Item 11 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K titled "Executive Compensation – Payments upon Termination or Change in Control" for additional information about these
 arrangements.

 Other Transactions

 We have granted stock and option awards to certain of our directors and Named Executive Officers. See the sections of Part III, Item 11 of this
 Annual Report on Form 10-K titled "Summary Compensation Table" and "Non-Employee Director Compensation" for more information regarding the stock and option awards granted to our directors and Named Executive Officers.

 Indemnification

 Our Bylaws provide that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.
 Further, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers, and we have purchased a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance that insures our directors and officers against the cost of defense,
 settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances.

 Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plans

 Our directors and executive officers may adopt written plans, known as Rule 10b5-1 plans, in which they will contract with a broker to buy or sell
 shares of our Common Stock on a periodic basis. Under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the director or executive officer when entering into the plan, without further direction from them. The
 director or executive officer may amend a Rule 10b5-1 plan in some circumstances (which may be deemed a termination of such plan and the entry into a new plan) and may terminate a plan at any time. Our directors and executive officers also may buy
 or sell additional shares outside of a Rule 10b5-1 plan when they are not in possession of material nonpublic information, subject to compliance with the terms of our insider trading policy.
