Zura Bio Completes Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation and Notice to Exercise Right to Exchange Remaining Outstanding Warrants

Zura Bio Limited (Nasdaq: ZURA) (“Zura Bio” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage immunology company developing novel dual-pathway antibodies for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, today announced that it has completed its previously announced exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) and consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”) relating to its outstanding (i) public warrants that were issued in connection with its initial public offering to purchase Class A ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”), which warrants trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ZURAW” (the “public warrants”), and (ii) private placement warrants that were issued in connection with its initial public offering to purchase Class A ordinary shares (the “private placement warrants” and, together with the public warrants, the “IPO warrants”). The Company issued 3,235,184 ordinary shares in exchange for the IPO warrants tendered in the Exchange Offer.

The Company also entered into the related amendment to the warrant agreement governing the warrants (the “Warrant Amendment”) and announced that it will exercise its right, in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Amendment, to exchange all remaining untendered IPO warrants at an exchange ratio of 0.27 Class A ordinary shares for each remaining untendered IPO warrant (the “Post-Offer Exchange”). The Company has fixed the date for such exchange as August 27, 2024.

As a result of the completion of the Exchange Offer and the Post-Offer Exchange, no IPO warrants will remain outstanding. Accordingly, the IPO warrants are expected to be suspended from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) as of the close of business on August 26, 2024, and will be delisted. The Class A ordinary shares will continue to be listed and trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol “ZURA”.

The Company engaged Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. as the dealer manager for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, Alliance Advisors, LLC as the information agent for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as the exchange agent for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation.

Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections, and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including, but not limited to those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4, initially filed with the SEC on July 12, 2024, as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
