Item 1. Security and Issuer
 
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D, dated June 22, 2021, with respect to the Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Tenax Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Except as expressly amended below, the Schedule 13D, dated June 22, 2021, remains in effect.
 
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
The information contained in Item 4 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.
 
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
 
This Amendment is being filed in connection with a gift of 567,871 shares of Common Stock on June 30, 2021 by Dr. Doogan to fund the Declan Doogan 2021 GRAT DTD 03-04-2021 (the “Trust”). Dorothy Doogan, Dr. Doogan’s wife, is the trustee of the Trust. Per the terms of the Trust, during its term the Trust must make annuity payments to Dr. Doogan which will be accomplished by transferring shares of Common Stock back to Dr. Doogan.
 
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
Following Dr. Doogan’s gift to the Trust, as described above, he is the beneficial owner of 3,637,871 shares of Common Stock (or 14.44% based on 25,201,312 shares outstanding on August 12, 2021), consisting of (i) 3,070,000 shares held of record by him, and (ii) 567,871 shares held of record by the Trust, for which Mrs. Doogan, as trustee, has voting and investment control and for which he is deemed to share voting and investment control with Mrs. Doogan. Dr. Doogan disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock held by the Trust except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
 
The only transaction by Dr. Doogan in the securities of the Issuer in the 60 days preceding the filing of this Amendment No. 1 was the gift of shares of Common Stock to the Trust, as discussed above.
