The Business Combination Agreement

As previously announced on June 16, 2022, JATT Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“JATT” or the “SPAC”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement, as amended on September 20, 2022 (the “First Amendment”) and November 14, 2022 (the “Second Amendment”) (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time) (the “Original Business Combination Agreement” or “BCA”), among JATT, JATT Merger Sub, a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of JATT (“Merger Sub”), JATT Merger Sub 2, a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of JATT (“Merger Sub 2”), Zura Bio Holdings Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdco”) (to become a party before Closing, as described below) and Zura Bio Limited, a limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company” or “Zura”). On September 20, 2022, the parties entered into the First Amendment, which did not materially alter the terms of the Original Business Combination Agreement.

Under the Original Business Combination Agreement, as amended, each of JATT and Zura had the right to terminate the Original Business Combination Agreement if the Business Combination had not been consummated by November 15, 2022 (the “Outside Date”). In order to facilitate the completion of the Business Combination, on November 14, 2022, JATT, Merger Sub, Merger Sub 2, Zura and Holdco entered into the Second Amendment to the Original Business Combination Agreement extend the Outside Date to January 16, 2023.

In order to facilitate the completion of the Business Combination, on January 16, 2023, JATT, Merger Sub, Merger Sub 2, Zura and Holdco entered into the third amendment to the Original Business Combination Agreement (the “Third Amendment to the BCA”) to extend the Outside Date to April 17, 2023. No other changes were made to the Original Business Combination Agreement, except as disclosed above.

A copy of the Third Amendment to the BCA is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and the foregoing description of the Third Amendment to the BCA is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

The information disclosed in Item 5.07 of this Current Report on Form 8-K under the heading “Proposal 1” is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03 to the extent required.

Extraordinary General Meeting

On January 12, 2023, JATT held an extraordinary general meeting (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), at which holders of 15,999,829 ordinary shares, comprised of 12,549,829 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), and 3,450,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Ordinary Shares”), were present in person or by proxy, representing approximately 92.75% of the voting power of the 17,250,000 issued and outstanding ordinary shares of JATT entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting at the close of business on November 28, 2022, which was the record date (the “Record Date”) for the Extraordinary General Meeting (such shares, the “Outstanding Shares”). The Outstanding Shares on the Record Date were comprised of 13,800,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 3,450,000 Class B Ordinary Shares. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date are referred to herein as “Shareholders.”

In connection with the Extension (as defined below), public shareholders properly elected to redeem an aggregate of 12,111,022 Class A Ordinary Shares at a redemption price of $10.257 per share, representing approximately 87.76% of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $124,226,450.64. Following such redemptions, approximately $17,324,363.09, not including the additional contribution to interest of $101,338.68 made by the sponsor (as described below), will remain in the trust account at Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company (the “Trust Account”) and 1,688,978 Class A Ordinary Shares remain outstanding.

A summary of the voting results at the Extraordinary General Meeting for each of the proposals is set forth below.

Proposal 1

The Shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend (the “Extension Amendment”) JATT’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”), to extend the date by which JATT has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) for an additional three months from January 16, 2023 to April 17, 2023 (the termination date as so extended, the “Extended Termination Date”) (we refer to this proposal as the “Extension Amendment Proposal”), in the form attached as Annex A to the proxy statement dated December 6, 2022. The voting results for such proposal were as follows:

A copy of the Extension Amendment as adopted on January 12, 2023 by the special resolution of the Shareholders is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

As a result of the approval of the Extension Amendment, the sponsor (or one or more of its affiliates, members or third-party designees)(the “Lender”) has made a deposit (“Contribution”) into the Trust Account in the amount of $101,338.68, which was the lesser of $200,000 or (b) $0.06 for each public Class A ordinary share that was not redeemed in connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting, in exchange for an unsecured promissory note issued by JATT to the Lender. The Contribution was deposited as additional interest on the proceeds in the Trust Account and shall be distributed pro rata as a part of the redemption amount to each remaining Class A Ordinary Share in connection with a future redemption.

The unsecured promissory note will be repayable by JATT to Lender only upon consummation of a business combination. The promissory note will be forgiven by Lender if JATT is unable to consummate a business combination before April 17, 2023, except to the extent of any funds held outside of the Trust Account.

Proposal 2

The proposal to adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there were insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the Extension Amendment Proposal, was not presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting, as the Extension Amendment Proposal received a sufficient number of votes for approval.

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 that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by an investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, Zura's and JATT's expectations with respect to anticipated financial impacts of the proposed business combination, the satisfaction of closing conditions to the proposed business combination, the timing of the completion of the proposed business combination and the execution of the License Agreement and the Equity Grant Agreement mentioned above. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of JATT's annual report on Form 10-K and initial public offering prospectus, and its subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In addition, there will be risks and uncertainties described in the Form S-4 and other documents to be filed by JATT from time to time with the SEC. These filings would identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Many of these factors are outside Zura's and JATT's control and are difficult to predict. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ from the forward-looking statements in this communication, including but not limited to: (1) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against JATT or Zura following the announcement of the proposed business combination; (2) the inability to complete the proposed business combination, including due to the inability to concurrently close the business combination and related transactions, including the private placement of ordinary shares or due to failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of JATT; (3) the risk that the proposed business combination may not be completed by JATT's business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by JATT; (4) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the proposed business combination, including the approval by the shareholders of JATT, the satisfaction of the minimum cash requirement following any redemptions by JATT's public shareholders and the receipt of certain governmental and regulatory approvals; (5) delays in obtaining, adverse conditions contained in, or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or complete regulatory reviews required to complete the proposed business combination; (6) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the business combination agreement; (7) volatility in the price of JATT's or the combined company’s securities; (8) the risk that the proposed business combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the business combination; (9) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain key employees; (10) costs related to the proposed business combination; (11) changes in the applicable laws or regulations; (12) the possibility that the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (13) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive industry in which Zura operates; (14) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic; (15) the potential inability of Zura to raise additional capital needed to pursue its business objectives or to achieve efficiencies regarding other costs; (16) the enforceability of Zura's intellectual property, including its patents, and the potential infringement on the intellectual property rights of others, cyber security risks or potential breaches of data security; and (17) other risks and uncertainties described in JATT's Annual Report, its initial public offering prospectus, and its subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. These risks and uncertainties may be amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused significant economic uncertainty. Zura and JATT caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive or exhaustive and not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including projections, which speak only as of the date made. Neither Zura nor JATT gives any assurance that Zura or JATT will achieve its expectations. None of Zura or JATT undertakes or accepts any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, or should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.
