Staff Comments dated October 10, 2017, regarding
AntriaBio, Inc.
Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
Filed September 27, 2017
File No. 000-54495
Dear Ms. Yale:
This letter responds to the staff’s comments set forth in the October 10, 2017 letter regarding the above-referenced Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A (the “Preliminary Proxy Statement”). We are concurrently submitting via EDGAR this letter and Amendment No.1 to the Preliminary Proxy Statement (the “Amendment”). For your convenience, the staff’s comments are included below and we have numbered our responses accordingly.
In some of the responses, we have agreed to change or supplement the disclosures in future filings. We are doing so in the spirit of cooperation with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and not because we believe our prior filing is materially deficient or inaccurate. Accordingly, any changes implemented in future filings should not be taken as an admission that prior disclosures were in any way deficient. We have also indicated in some responses that we believe no change in disclosure is appropriate, and have explained why.
Our responses are as follows:
Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
Proposal 6 Reverse Stock Split
Staff Comment No. 1.
Please expand your disclosure to specifically state whether you have any plans, proposals or arrangements, written or oral, to issue any of the newly available shares of common stock resulting from the reverse stock split for general corporate or any other purposes. If there are any such plans, please describe them.

We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and respectfully advise the Staff that we have indicated in the Amendment that we do not have any plans, proposals or arrangements, written or oral, to issue any of the newly available shares of common stock resulting from the reverse stock. We also note in the Amendment that the primary purpose of the proposed reverse stock split is to increase the trading price of our common stock for a potential listing on NASDAQ or NYSE.
