Reference is made to the letter from the undersigned representatives of the underwriters of the proposed public offering of securities of Evoke Pharma, Inc. (“the “Company”), filed as correspondence via EDGAR on January 16, 2024, in which the undersigned joined the Company and requested that the effective date of the Registration Statement on Form S-1 referred to above (the “Registration Statement”) be accelerated so that it would become effective at 5:00 P.M.
