Proposal 2 — To approve, by ordinary resolution, the issuance in the Second Placement of 117,647 Shares to Amit Munshi, the Company’s Non-Executive Chairman, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, dated as of April 26, 2023, by and between the Company and Mr. Munshi, and the grant of options to purchase 1,130,000 Shares to Mr. Munshi (such issuance and grant, the “Equity Compensation” and such proposal, the “Equity Compensation Proposal”);

Proposal 3 — To approve, by ordinary resolution, an amendment (the “EIP Amendment”) to the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”) to increase the number of our Shares for which awards may be granted under the EIP by an additional 5,564,315 Class A ordinary shares (the “EIP Amendment Proposal”); and

Proposal 4 — To, by ordinary resolution, approve the adjournment of the Extraordinary General Meeting by the chairman thereof to a later date, if necessary, for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in favor of the Private Placement Proposal, the Equity Compensation Proposal and the EIP Amendment Proposal, in the event the Company does not receive the requisite shareholder votes to approve the foregoing proposals (the “Adjournment Proposal” and together with the Private Placement Proposal, the Equity Compensation Proposal and the EIP Amendment Proposal, the “Proposals”).

PROXY STATEMENT
FOR THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF
SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON JUNE 1, 2023
AT 12:00 P.M. EASTERN TIME
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This proxy statement, and the documents incorporated by reference into this proxy statement, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “would,” “seem,” “seek,” “outlook” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. 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 proxy statement. 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. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” sections of the Company’s filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, the risks and uncertainties described in the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended (the “Registration Statement”). 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 of the Company’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 the Company; (2) volatility in the price of the Company’s securities; (3) the inability to realize the anticipated benefits of the merger involving ZBHL and JATT (each as defined below), which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain key employees; (4) costs related to the Private Placement (as defined below), subsequent financing transactions and the ongoing costs relating to operating as a public company; (5) changes in the applicable laws or regulations; (6) the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (7) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive industry in which the Company operates; (8) the potential inability of the Company to raise additional capital needed to pursue its business objectives or to achieve efficiencies regarding other costs; (9) the enforceability of the Company’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; (10) the possibility that the Company’s shareholders do not approve any or all of the Proposals (as defined below) and failure to satisfy other customary closing conditions in connection with the Private Placement; and (11) other risks and uncertainties described in the Registration Statement and such other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange (the “SEC”). The Company cautions 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. The Company gives no assurance that it will achieve its expectations and does not undertake or accept 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.

Who can vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting?
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on May 3, 2023 will be entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting or any adjournment thereof. On this record date, there were a total of 31,802,155 Class A ordinary shares of the Company outstanding and entitled to vote. Pursuant to Nasdaq rules, the 3,750,000 Class A ordinary shares issued by the Company in the First Placement (as defined below) and the 1,550,000 Class A ordinary shares granted by the Company to Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”) as described in Proposal 1 under the heading “Why We Need Shareholder Approval” are not eligible to vote on Proposal 1 and therefore 26,502,155 Class A ordinary shares are entitled to vote on Proposal 1.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee
If on May 3, 2023, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account of a broker, bank or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and that organization is responsible for delivering the proxy card to you. The organization holding your account is considered to be the shareholder of record for purposes of voting at the Extraordinary General Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Extraordinary General Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.
What am I voting on?
There are three matters scheduled for a vote:

Approval of the Private Placement Proposal (as defined below);

Approval of the Equity Compensation Proposal (as defined below); and

Approval of the EIP Amendment Proposal (as defined below).
If necessary, you will also be asked to vote on the Adjournment Proposal.
If shareholders approve any or all of the Proposals, will I be required to sell my securities of the Company?
The Private Placement (as defined below) involves the purchase by certain investors of newly issued Class A ordinary shares and pre-funded warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares. The Equity Compensation (as defined below) involves the issuance of newly issued Class A ordinary shares and grant of options to purchase yet to be issued Class A ordinary shares to our Non-Executive Chairman. The EIP Amendment (as defined below) involves the reservation of Class A ordinary shares for yet to be granted awards under the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP” or the “Equity Incentive Plan”). You will not be required to sell any of your securities of the Company if any or all of the Proposals are approved by the shareholders.
How do I vote?
If you are a shareholder of record and your shares are registered directly in your name, you may vote:

By Internet.   To vote through the internet, go to www.AALvote.com/ZURA to complete an electronic proxy card. You will be asked to provide the company number and control number from the proxy card. Your Internet vote must be received by 1:00 a.m., Eastern time, on June 1, 2023 to be counted.

By Proxy Card.   Complete and mail the proxy card, which you may have received by mail, and return it promptly in the envelope provided. If you return your signed proxy card before the Extraordinary General Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct.

Virtually at the Extraordinary General Meeting.   Registered holders may vote during the Extraordinary General Meeting via the Internet using the control number indicated on your proxy card or voting instruction form by going to www.AALvote.com/ZURA.
If your ordinary shares are held in “street name” ​(i.e., held for your account by a broker, bank or other nominee), you should receive a notice containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from us. You should follow the instructions in the notice to ensure your vote is counted. To vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee. Follow the instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee or contact your broker, bank or other nominee to request a proxy form.
How many votes do I have?
On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each Class A ordinary share you own as of May 3, 2023.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
What are the Board’s recommendations on how to vote my shares?
The Board recommends a vote:
Proposal 1: FOR approval of the Private Placement Proposal; Proposal 2: FOR approval of the Equity Compensation Proposal; Proposal 3: FOR approval of the EIP Amendment Proposal; and (if necessary) Proposal 4: FOR approval of the Adjournment Proposal.
Who will solicit the proxies and pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting?
We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting. We have engaged Alliance Advisors, LLC to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting. We have agreed to pay Alliance Advisors, LLC a fee of approximately $18,750 and will reimburse Alliance Advisors, LLC for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and indemnify it and its affiliates against certain claims, liabilities, losses, damages, and expenses. We will also reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of Class A ordinary shares for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of the Class A ordinary shares and in obtaining voting instructions from those owners. Our directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies by telephone, by facsimile, by mail, on the Internet or in person. They will not be paid any additional amounts for soliciting proxies.
What if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote without giving specific voting instructions?
If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without instructions as to how your shares should be voted on a particular proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board stated above.
If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and I do not provide my broker or bank with voting instructions, what happens?
If your shares are held in street name, your broker, bank or other nominee may under certain circumstances vote your shares if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares. Brokers, banks and other nominees can vote your shares on routine matters, but cannot vote such shares on non-routine matters. The approval of the Private Placement Proposal (Proposal 1), the Equity Compensation Proposal (Proposal 2), the EIP Amendment Proposal (Proposal 3) and the Adjournment Proposal (Proposal 4) are non-routine matters. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee. This ensures that your shares will be voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting according to your instructions. You should receive directions from your broker, bank or other nominee about how to submit your proxy to them at the time you receive this Proxy Statement.
If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other agent.
What does it mean if I receive more than one set of proxy materials?
If you receive more than one set of proxy materials, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions included in the proxy materials to ensure that all of your shares are voted.
Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?
Shareholder of Record:   Shares Registered in Your Name
Yes. If you are the shareholder of record for your shares, you may revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting in one of the following ways:

by notifying our Secretary in writing at 4225 Executive Square, Suite 600, La Jolla, CA 92037 that you are revoking your proxy, provided such notice is received before the Extraordinary General Meeting;

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

by submitting another properly completed proxy with a later date, provided we receive it before the Extraordinary General Meeting;

by transmitting a subsequent vote over the Internet prior to 1:00 a.m., Eastern time, on June 1, 2023; or

by attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting via the Internet using the unique join link sent to you once properly registered at https://viewproxy.com/zura/2023/htype.asp.
Your last vote, whether prior to or at the Extraordinary General Meeting, is the vote that we will count.
Beneficial Owner:   Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee
If your shares are held in “street name”, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee for instructions as to how to change your vote. Your attendance at the Extraordinary General Meeting does not revoke your proxy. Your last vote, whether prior to or at the Extraordinary General Meeting, is the vote that we will count.
How is a quorum reached?
A quorum of shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if shareholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares entitled to vote are present at the Extraordinary General Meeting in person or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 31,802,155 Class A ordinary shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, for Proposals 2, 3 and 4, the holders of 15,901,078 Class A ordinary shares must be present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting to have a quorum. As mentioned above, pursuant to Nasdaq rules, the 3,750,000 Class A ordinary shares issued by the Company in the First Placement and the 1,550,000 Class A ordinary shares granted by the Company to Lilly as described in Proposal 1 under the heading “Why We Need Shareholder Approval” are not eligible to vote on Proposal 1 and therefore 26,502,155 Class A ordinary shares are entitled to vote and 13,251,078 Class A ordinary shares must be present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting to have a quorum for Proposal 1.
Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you attend in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence or if, during the meeting, a quorum ceases to be present, the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as the Board may determine. If, at the adjourned meeting, a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the shareholders present shall be a quorum.
What are “broker non-votes”?
As discussed above, when a beneficial owner of shares held in street name does not give instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be “non-routine,” the broker, bank or other nominee cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares and uninstructed shares for which the broker, bank or other nominee does not elect to exercise discretionary authority over “routine” matters are “broker non-votes.”

Who counts the votes?
Alliance Advisors, LLC has been engaged as our independent agent to tabulate shareholder votes as the Inspector of Elections.

PROPOSAL 1: APPROVE THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Overview
We are asking our shareholders to consider and vote on a proposal to approve the issuance of securities in the Second Placement (as defined below), which, combined with the First Placement (as defined below), would result in a sale of more than 20% of our outstanding stock at a discount to the “Minimum Price,” as defined under the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), on the date we entered into the Subscription Agreements (as defined below), which, as described below, under Nasdaq rules requires us to obtain shareholder approval (the “Private Placement Proposal”). The approval of the Private Placement Proposal to be voted on at this Extraordinary General Meeting is critical in order to fully execute the Company’s financing transaction with the Subscribers and to provide the Company with additional financial flexibility.
Subscription Agreements and Private Placement
On April 26, 2023, Zura Bio Limited (the “Company”) entered into certain subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain individual and institutional accredited investors (the “Subscribers”) in connection with the sale by the Company (the “Private Placement”) of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) (collectively, the “Securities”). Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements, each Share is being sold at a price of $4.25 per Share and each Pre-Funded Warrant is being sold at a price of $4.249 per Pre-Funded Warrant. Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per Share and is exercisable for one Share at any time or times on or after the date of issuance until exercised in full.
The consummation of the Private Placement is occurring in two tranches. The closing of the first tranche (the “First Closing,” and the issuance of Shares in the First Closing, the “First Placement”) occurred on May 1, 2023, at which time Subscribers purchased an aggregate of 3,750,000 Shares for a total of approximately $16 million in gross proceeds to the Company.
At the closing of the second tranche (the “Second Closing,” and the issuance of Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants in the Second Closing, the “Second Placement”), subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Company’s shareholders approving the transaction at the Extraordinary General Meeting in accordance with the listing rules of Nasdaq, Subscribers will purchase an aggregate of 15,073,530 Shares (including 3,782,000 million Shares issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants) for a total of approximately $64 million in gross proceeds to the Company. The Second Closing is expected to occur by June 15, 2023, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions referenced above.
The Subscription Agreements contain customary representations and warranties as well as certain covenants applicable to the Company until the Second Closing.
Description of Pre-Funded Warrants
The Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Private Placement are exercisable, in full or in part, at any time on or after their issuance, at an exercise price of $0.001 per Class A ordinary share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments in the event of share splits, share dividends, subdivisions, combinations or similar events as set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrants. The Pre-Funded Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. Pre-Funded Warrant holders are entitled to participate in any dividend or other distribution by the Company to holders of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, on an as-exercised basis.
The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Subscription Agreements and the Pre-Funded Warrant are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Subscription Agreements and the Pre-Funded Warrant, which are attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A and Annex B, respectively.
Why We Need Shareholder Approval
We are seeking shareholder approval in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which requires us to obtain shareholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction

other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by the Company of ordinary shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares) at a price that is lower than the lower of (1) the closing price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement or (2) the average closing price of the ordinary shares (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement (such lower number, the “Nasdaq Minimum Price”), which alone or together with sales by officers, directors or substantial shareholders of the Company, equals at least 20% of the ordinary shares or at least 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance (such threshold, as applicable, the “Issuance Cap”). In accordance with Nasdaq rules, the 550,000 Class A ordinary shares that the Company issued to Eli Lilly and Company on March 20, 2023 pursuant to that certain equity grant agreement, dated as of December 8, 2022, by and between the Company and Lilly will not be included when calculating the Issuance Cap and will not be able to vote on the Private Placement Proposal. Also in accordance with Nasdaq rules, the 3,750,000 Class A ordinary shares issued in the First Placement will not be able to vote on the Private Placement Proposal. The closing of the Second Placement, together with the First Placement, will result in the issuance of shares equal to or greater than the Issuance Cap of the Company for a price lower than the Nasdaq Minimum Price.
We are therefore seeking shareholder approval for the sale and issuance of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants to occur at the Second Closing and in connection with the Private Placement to satisfy the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).
Additionally, Nasdaq listing Rule 5635(a) requires shareholder approval in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company if, among other circumstances, due to the present or potential issuance of ordinary shares in a private placement, the number of ordinary shares to be issued is or will be equal to 20% of the number of ordinary shares outstanding before the issuance of the ordinary shares. On May 3, 2023, pursuant to that certain equity grant agreement (the “Lilly Grant Agreement”), dated as of April 26, 2023, by and between the Company and Lilly, and as partial consideration for Lilly entering into a certain license agreement (the “Lilly License Agreement”) with our subsidiary, we issued to Lilly 1,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Lilly Shares” and the transactions contemplated by the Lilly Grant Agreement and the Lilly License Agreement collectively, the “Lilly Transaction”). To the extent Nasdaq would consider the Lilly Transaction to be consummated in connection with the Private Placement, shareholder approval for the Lilly Transaction would be required in connection therewith under Nasdaq Rule 5635(a). In accordance with Nasdaq rules, the Lilly Shares (together with the 550,000 Class A ordinary shares previously granted to Lilly as described above) will not be included when calculating the Issuance Cap and will not be able to vote on the Private Placement Proposal. For the avoidance of doubt, the outcome of the vote on the Private Placement Proposal will have no effect on the Lilly Transaction.
Dilution and Impact on Existing Shareholders
The issuance of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants, if exercised, which are the subject of this proposal, would have a dilutive effect on current shareholders in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such current shareholders will decline as a result of the issuance. This means also that our existing shareholders will own a smaller interest in the Company as a result of such issuance and therefore have less ability to influence significant corporate decisions requiring shareholder approval. Issuance of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants could also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for the Class A ordinary shares to decline.
Consequences if Shareholder Approval is Not Obtained
If we do not obtain the requisite shareholder approval of the Private Placement Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Subscription Agreements will be void and of no further effect with regard to any as-yet uncompleted subscriptions, the Second Closing will not occur and the Company will promptly return to the Subscribers any monies paid by such Subscribers to the Company pursuant to the Subscription Agreements. Accordingly, we would return the approximately $16 million received from Subscribers as payment for the Shares in the First Placement, we would be unable to complete the Second Closing and we would not receive the additional gross proceeds of approximately $64 million from the Subscribers as payment for the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants in the Second Placement, and such funds would not be available to pursue the activities described below, substantially limiting our growth potential.

Use of Proceeds
The Company intends to use the net proceeds for advancement of clinical and preclinical product candidates and for working capital and general corporate purposes. We may find it necessary or advisable to use the net proceeds for other purposes, and our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds.
Vote Required
An ordinary resolution under our second amended and restated memorandum and article of association (the “MAA”) is required to approve the Private Placement Proposal. As a result, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy who are entitled to vote and do in fact vote on the matter at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be required to approve the Private Placement Proposal. Pursuant to Nasdaq rules, the total number of Class A ordinary shares that are entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting for the approval of Proposal 1 is 26,502,155 as the Lilly Shares (together with the 550,000 Class A ordinary shares previously granted to Lilly as described above) and the 3,750,000 Class A ordinary shares issued in the First Placement are not eligible to vote.

PROPOSAL 2: APPROVE THE EQUITY COMPENSATION
Overview
The shareholders of the Company are being asked to approve, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c), the issuance of 117,647 Shares in the Private Placement and the grant of options to purchase 1,130,000 Shares to Amit Munshi, the Company’s Non-Executive Chairman.
Munshi Subscription Agreement
As described above, on April 26, 2023, the Company entered into the Subscription Agreements with certain individual and institutional accredited investors in connection with the Private Placement, the consummation of which is occurring in two tranches. The Company and Amit Munshi, the Company’s Non-Executive Chairman, entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Munshi Subscription Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to Mr. Munshi, and Mr. Munshi agreed to purchase from the Company, an aggregate of 117,647 Shares (the “Munshi Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000. The issuance of the Munshi Shares is contingent upon shareholder approval of this Proposal 2, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c), and will occur entirely at the Second Closing if such shareholder approval is obtained.
Munshi Offer Letter and Equity Awards
On March 2, 2023, Zura Bio Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an offer letter with Mr. Munshi (the “Munshi Offer Letter”), which provided for the following equity awards as an inducement to Mr. Munshi becoming the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board:
Pre-Merger RSU Award
On March 18, 2023, Mr. Munshi received a grant of restricted share units (“RSUs”) for 4,626 shares in Zura Bio Holdings (“ZBHL”), the parent of Zura Bio Inc. prior to ZBHL’s merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of JATT Acquisition Corp (“JATT”), which were later converted into 499,993 Class A ordinary shares in the Company pursuant to the merger. These RSUs vest equally over four (4) years as follows, subject to Mr. Munshi’s continued service to the Company: twenty-five percent (25%) on each of the anniversaries of the grant thereafter so that the RSUs are fully vested on the fourth anniversary of the grant date.
Post Merger Performance-Based Share Options
Pursuant to the Munshi Offer Letter, on March 20, 2023 the Company granted to Mr. Munshi share options under the EIP to purchase 306,373 Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price per share of $8.16, which was the closing price on the date of ZBHL’s merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of JATT. These options are eligible to become exercisable if the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares is over $30 per share at any time prior to March 20, 2028 and while Mr. Munshi remains as Non-Executive Chairman of our Board. Any shares issued upon exercise of these options will be held subject to lock-up provisions on the same terms as those issued to the Company’s other then-existing option holders (to the extent that such provisions remain in force).
Capital Raising Options
In addition to the equity awards described above to induce him to become the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board, the Munshi Offer Letter also provided a capital raising incentive to Mr. Munshi. Specifically, a commitment was made to Mr. Munshi to grant options in an amount equal to six percent (6%) of the capital raised (excluding existing commitments/insider capital, subject to a specified minimum price in such capital raise). If the capital raising commitment is achieved after ZBHL’s merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of JATT, the option exercise price is to equal the fair market value of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares at the time of grant, and these options are eligible to vest over four (4) years as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) on the first anniversary of the grant and monthly thereafter (2.083 percent for each month thereafter). Class A ordinary shares issued upon exercise of these options will be held subject to

certain lock-up provisions on the same terms as those issued to the Company’s other then-existing option holders (to the extent they remain in force).
Modification to Capital Raising Options
In connection with the Company entering into the Munshi Subscription Agreement on April 26, 2023, the Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company, and the Company’s shareholders, to, subject to shareholder approval, modify the terms under which the Company would grant capital raising options to Mr. Munshi as contemplated under the Munshi Offer Letter (such potential grant, the “Munshi Grant,” and together with Mr. Munshi’s purchase of the Munshi Shares in the Private Placement, the “Equity Compensation”). The Board determined that the intent of the Munshi Grant was to align the option grant with the anticipated Class A ordinary share price offering in a potential private placement. When the Munshi Offer Letter was entered into, the contemplated Class A ordinary share price for the potential private placement was $7.50; however given market dynamics, the Class A ordinary share price in the Private Placement was ultimately set at $4.25. While the current per share price for the Private Placement is lower than the price set forth in the Munshi Offer Letter, the Board determined it remained appropriate to make the Munshi Grant and use the $4.25 price for a Class A ordinary share in the Private Placement in calculating the number of Class A ordinary shares to be included in the Munshi Grant. Therefore, the Board determined that the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying the Munshi Grant shall be 1,130,000, or approximately 6.0% of the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued in the Private Placement. The option exercise price under the Munshi Grant will be equal to the fair market value of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares at the time of grant. The Munshi Grant is nonforfeitable on grant but may only be exercisable on the vesting dates noted above under the heading Capital Raising Options, subject to being fully exercisable upon a Change in Control (as defined in the EIP). The Munshi Grant is contingent upon shareholder approval of this Proposal 2 and, if approved, will generally be subject to the terms and conditions of the EIP. A copy of the form of FY 2023 Share Option Award Agreement related to the Munshi Grant is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex C.
Why We Need Shareholder Approval
We are seeking shareholder approval in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c). Nasdaq deems the issuance of ordinary shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable for ordinary shares, to a Nasdaq-listed company’s officers, directors, employees or consultants in a private placement at a price less than the market value of such shares, calculated as the closing bid price for such shares on the trading day immediately prior to entry into the agreement, as equity compensation requiring shareholder approval. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c) also requires shareholder approval prior to issuing securities when a share option or purchase plan is to be established or materially amended or other equity compensation arrangement made or materially amended, pursuant to which shares may be acquired by officers, directors, employees, or consultants. The Munshi Subscription Agreement provides for the sale and/or issuance of securities to Mr. Munshi at a price that is less than the closing bid price of our Class A ordinary shares as reported on Nasdaq on the trading day immediately prior to the date of the Munshi Subscription Agreement. As a result, shareholder approval of the issuance of the Munshi Shares to Mr. Munshi, and receipt by the Company of the $500,000 aggregate purchase price for the Munshi Shares, is required pursuant to Listing Rule 5635(c). Similarly, shareholder approval is required pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c) for the Munshi Grant as it provides an option for Mr. Munshi to buy 1,130,000 Class A ordinary shares and Mr. Munshi is the Non-Executive Chairman of the Company.
When you consider our Board’s recommendation to vote in favor of Proposal 2, you should be aware that certain of our directors and our officers may have interests that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of other shareholders. In particular, if shareholder approval is obtained, Mr. Munshi will purchase securities at a price that was below the closing bid price of our Class A ordinary shares on the day prior to the execution of the Munshi Subscription Agreement and will receive options to purchase 1,130,000 Class A ordinary shares with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares on the date such options are granted.
Dilution and Impact on Existing Shareholders
The Equity Compensation, which is the subject of this Proposal 2, would have a dilutive effect on current shareholders in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such current shareholders

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
will decline as a result of the issuance of the Munshi Shares and upon Mr. Munshi exercising the options awarded under the Munshi Grant. This means also that our existing shareholders will own a smaller interest in the Company as a result of such issuance and potential exercise and therefore have less ability to influence significant corporate decisions requiring shareholder approval. Issuance of the Munshi Shares and the potential exercise of the options awarded under the Munshi Grant could also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for the Class A ordinary shares to decline.
Consequences if Shareholder Approval is Not Obtained
If we do not obtain the requisite shareholder approval of the Equity Compensation Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Munshi Subscription Agreement will terminate and the Company will not issue the Munshi Shares to Mr. Munshi. We would therefore not receive the $500,000 aggregate purchase price for the Munshi Shares from Mr. Munshi, limiting our growth potential. The options to purchase 1,130,000 Class A ordinary shares contemplated by the Munshi Grant would not be granted. Mr. Munshi will retain his rights to receive capital raising options as contemplated by the Munshi Offer Letter and will remain eligible to receive equity grants for service on our Board under the EIP.
Use of Proceeds
The Company intends to use the net proceeds for advancement of clinical and preclinical product candidates and for working capital and general corporate purposes. We may find it necessary or advisable to use the net proceeds for other purposes, and our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds.
Vote Required
An ordinary resolution under our MAA is required to approve the Equity Compensation Proposal. As a result, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy who are entitled to vote and do in fact vote on the matter at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be required to approve the Equity Compensation Proposal.

PROPOSAL 3: APPROVE THE EIP AMENDMENT
We are asking our shareholders to approve the proposed amendment of the Zura Bio Limited 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, which was adopted by the Board subject to shareholder approval. The EIP Amendment would increase the number of Class A ordinary shares reserved for issuance by 5,564,315 Class A ordinary shares, from 4,029,898 Class A ordinary shares currently to 9,594,213 Class A ordinary shares.
Overview
Under the Equity Incentive Plan, the Company reserves Class A ordinary shares for issuance to employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers of the Company, or of any of its subsidiaries, as the compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) may determine and designate from time to time, in the form of incentive share options (“ISOs”), nonqualified share options (“NSOs”), share appreciation rights (“SARs”), RSUs, restricted shares and other share-based awards and for incentive bonuses, which may be paid in cash, ordinary shares or a combination thereof, as determined by the Compensation Committee.
The purpose of the Equity Incentive Plan is to promote and closely align the interests of employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers of the Company, and its shareholders by providing share-based compensation and other performance-based compensation. The objectives of the Equity Incentive Plan are to attract and retain the talented employees and service providers for positions of substantial responsibility and to motivate participants in the Equity Incentive Plan to optimize the profitability and growth of the Company through incentives that are consistent with the Company’s goals and that link the personal interests of such participants to those of the Company’s shareholders. The Board and the Compensation Committee believe that the interests of the Company and its shareholders will be advanced if we can continue to offer our employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers the opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the operations and future success of the Company.
The Equity Incentive Plan was approved by shareholders with a share reserve of 4,029,898 Class A ordinary shares. If the Private Placement Proposal is approved by shareholders, the share reserve under the Equity Incentive Plan will only represent 8.6% of the Class A ordinary shares on a fully diluted basis upon closing of the Second Placement. The Equity Incentive Plan was originally designed so that the share reserve represented approximately ten percent of the Class A ordinary shares on a fully diluted basis. As of May 18, 2023, only 46,298 Class A ordinary shares remained reserved and available for issuance pursuant to additional awards under the Equity Incentive Plan following the grant of equity awards to a select group of employees and non-employee directors on such date.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the equity awards that have been granted and are outstanding under the Equity Incentive Plan as of May 18, 2023:

The figures in this column represent Class A ordinary shares that will be delivered under RSUs according to the following vesting schedule: 25% of the RSUs shall vest on each of the anniversaries of the date of grant, provided that the recipient is then providing services to the Company, such that the RSUs vest equally over four years. The closing price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares on May 17, 2023 was $5.31.

Represents (i) options to purchase 306,373 Class A ordinary shares which were granted to Mr. Munshi as performance-based share options, as further described in Proposal 2 under the heading “Munshi Offer Letter and Equity Awards — Post Merger Performance — Based Share Options”; (ii) options granted to Dr. Kulkarni to purchase 207,520 Class A ordinary shares, which are eligible to vest and become exercisable as to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares on the first anniversary of the grant date and monthly thereafter (2.083 percent for each month thereafter), subject to being fully exercisable upon a Change in Control (as defined in the EIP); and (iii) options to purchase 30,608 Class A ordinary shares which were granted to the Company’s other directors (other than Mr. Munshi and Dr. Kulkarni).
(5)
Includes awards made to current and former employees of the Company.
The proposed amendment to the Equity Incentive Plan would add 5,564,315 Class A ordinary shares to the share reserve available for equity awards. The Board has determined that this increase to the pool of shares available for future equity award grants is appropriate to enable the Company to use equity-based long-term incentives to support anticipated growth and to account for dilution to the holdings in the Company of our management as a result of the Private Placement. If shareholders approve the EIP Amendment Proposal, the number of shares available for granting new equity awards under the outstanding share reserve would be approximately 12.0% of the Company’s outstanding Class A ordinary shares (assuming the Private Placement Proposal is approved and the Second Placement is consummated). In addition, the Company would waive its right to add any additional shares to the Equity Incentive Plan’s share reserve under its evergreen provision for 2024 (as further described below).
The following is a summary description of the Equity Incentive Plan, which apart from the increase to the share reserve, will remain unchanged from the Equity Incentive Plan as approved by the Company’s shareholders on March 16, 2023 in connection with the business combination transaction with JATT.
Summary of the Equity Incentive Plan, as amended
The Equity Incentive Plan became effective on March 20, 2023 and will remain in effect until March 20, 2033, unless terminated earlier by the Board. The Equity Incentive Plan allows for the grant of share options, both ISOs and NSOs, SARs, alone or in conjunction with other awards, restricted shares and RSUs, incentive bonuses, which may be paid in cash, ordinary shares, or a combination thereof, and other share-based awards. We refer to these collectively herein as “Awards.” If the EIP Amendment is not approved by our shareholders, the Equity Incentive Plan will remain in effect in accordance with its existing terms and the Company may continue to make Awards, subject to available shares in the share pool, under the Equity Incentive Plan.
Administration
The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, or such other committee designated by the Board, which we refer to herein as the “Administrator.” The Administrator has broad discretionary authority, subject to the provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan, to establish sub-plans for certain non-U.S. employees and to administer and interpret the Equity Incentive Plan including any sub-plans established thereunder and Awards granted thereunder. All decisions and actions of the Administrator will be final and binding on all parties.
Share Pool
As noted above, the maximum number of Class A ordinary shares that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan is currently equal to 4,029,898. Class A ordinary shares issued under the Equity Incentive Plan may be either authorized and unissued shares or previously issued shares acquired by us.
 
14

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The Equity Incentive Plan also provides for annual increases (each, an “Annual Increase”) on January 1st of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2024 and ending on and including January 1, 2029, equal to the lesser of (A) 5.0% of the then current aggregate number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year, (B) 8,059,796 Class A ordinary shares or (C) such smaller number of shares as is determined by the Board. As noted above, the Board will waive any annual increase that would otherwise be available on January 1, 2024 if shareholders approve the EIP Amendment Proposal. The number of Class A ordinary shares available for grant as Awards at any time is referred to below as the “Share Pool.” The Share Pool is subject to certain adjustments in the event of a change in our capitalization.
On termination or expiration of an Award, in whole or in part, the number of Class A ordinary shares subject to such Award but not issued thereunder or that are otherwise forfeited back to the Company will again become available for grant under the Equity Incentive Plan. Additionally, shares retained or withheld in payment of any exercise price, purchase price or tax withholding obligation of an Award will again become available for grant under the Equity Incentive Plan.
The EIP Amendment, if approved, would increase the Share Pool from 4,029,898 Class A ordinary shares to 9,594,213 Class A ordinary shares, effective upon approval by the Company’s shareholders.
Limits on Non-Employee Director Compensation
Under the Equity Incentive Plan, the aggregate dollar value of all cash and equity-based compensation (whether granted under the Equity Incentive Plan or otherwise) to our non-employee directors for services in such capacity currently cannot exceed $750,000 during any calendar year. However, during the calendar year in which a non-employee director (other than Mr. Munshi) first joins the Board such aggregate limit shall instead be $1,000,000. With respect to Mr. Munshi, the RSUs and performance shares granted to him upon approval of the Equity Incentive Plan do not count towards such limit.
Types of Awards
Share Options
All share options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan are evidenced by a written agreement providing, among other things, whether the option is intended to be an incentive share option or a non-qualified share option, the number of shares subject to the option, the exercise price, exercisability (or vesting), the term of the option, which may not generally exceed ten years, and other terms and conditions. Subject to the express provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan or sub-plan established thereunder, options generally may be exercised over such period, in installments or otherwise, as the Administrator may determine. The exercise price for any share option granted may not generally be less than the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to that option on the grant date. The exercise price may be paid in cash or such other method as determined by the Administrator, including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the shares issuable under an option, the delivery of previously owned shares or withholding of shares deliverable upon exercise. Other than in connection with a change in our capitalization or by March 20, 2025 (within the first twenty-four months after the Equity Incentive Plan became effective), we may not, without shareholder approval, reduce the exercise price of a previously awarded option, provided, however, that at any time when the exercise price of an option previously awarded at least two years ago is at least 100% greater than the fair market value of a Class A ordinary share over a period of 90 trading days, we may, in our sole discretion and without shareholder approval, cancel and re-grant or exchange such option for cash or a new Award with a lower (or no) exercise price. In any event, we will not reduce the exercise price without the approval of the relevant option holder if such a reduction would cause the option to be non-compliant with the rules of any sub-plan or create adverse tax consequences for the holder.
Share Appreciation Rights
SARs may be granted alone or in conjunction with all or part of a share option. Upon exercising a SAR, the participant is entitled to receive the amount by which the fair market value of the Class A ordinary

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
shares at the time of exercise exceeds the exercise price of the SAR. This amount is payable in Class A ordinary shares, restricted shares, or a combination thereof, at the Administrator’s discretion.
Restricted Shares and RSUs
Awards of restricted shares consist of shares that are transferred to the participant subject to restrictions that may result in forfeiture if specified conditions are not satisfied. RSUs result in the transfer of cash or shares to the participant only after specified conditions are satisfied. The Administrator will determine the restrictions and conditions applicable to each Award of restricted shares or RSUs, which may include performance vesting conditions.
Other Share-Based Awards
Other share-based awards are Awards denominated in or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, the value of shares.
Incentive Bonuses
Each incentive bonus will confer upon the participant the opportunity to earn a future payment tied to the level of achievement with respect to one or more performance criteria established for a specified performance period. The Administrator may establish the performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria that will determine the threshold, target, and maximum amount payable under an incentive bonus, which criteria may be based on financial performance and/or personal performance evaluations. Payment of the amount due under an incentive bonus may be made in cash or shares, as determined by the Administrator.
Performance Criteria
The Administrator may specify certain performance criteria which must be satisfied before Awards will be granted or will vest. The performance goals may vary from participant to participant, group to group, and period to period. The Administrator reserves discretion to adjust performance criteria on an equitable basis to reflect circumstances not anticipated at the outset of the performance period, such as changes in law, changes in accounting and extraordinary events.
Change in Control
Unless otherwise expressly provided in any sub-plan or applicable Award agreement or another contract, the Administrator will provide that any or all of the following will occur upon a participant’s termination of employment without cause or resignation for good reason within twenty-four (24) months following a change in control: (i) in the case of a share option or SAR, the participant will have the ability to exercise any portion of the option or SAR not previously exercisable, (ii) in the case of any Award the vesting of which is in whole or in part subject to performance criteria or an incentive bonus, all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award shall immediately lapse and the participant will have the right to receive a payment based on target level achievement or actual performance through a date determined by the Administrator, and (iii) in the case of outstanding restricted shares, restricted share units or other share-based awards (other than those referenced in subsection (ii)), all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award will immediately lapse.
In the event of a change in control in which the acquiring or surviving company in the transaction does not assume or continue outstanding Awards or issue substitute awards upon the change in control, immediately prior to the change in control, all Awards that are not assumed, continued or substituted for will be treated as follows: (A) in the case of a share option or SAR, the participant will have the ability to exercise such share option or SAR, including any portion of the share option or SAR not previously exercisable, (B) in the case of any Award the vesting of which is in whole or in part subject to performance criteria or an incentive bonus, all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award will immediately lapse and the participant will have the right to receive a payment based on target level achievement or actual performance through a date determined by the Administrator,

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
as determined by the Administrator, and (C) in the case of outstanding restricted share, restricted share units or other share-based Awards (other than those referenced in subsection (B)), all conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award will immediately lapse.
The Administrator may provide for the cancellation and cash settlement of all outstanding Awards upon such change in control, it being understood that no amount will be payable with respect to share options and SARs with an exercise price equal or greater than the amount being paid with respect to a share of the Company’s ordinary shares.
Transferability
Awards generally may not be sold, transferred for value, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated by a participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each option or SAR may be exercisable only by the participant during his or her lifetime.
Amendment and Termination
The Board has the right to amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Equity Incentive Plan at any time, provided certain enumerated material amendments, including increasing the Share Pool, may not be made without shareholder approval and provided also that any decision to amend any sub-plan does not cause any Awards granted thereunder to be non-compliant with the rules of that sub-plan. No amendment or alteration to the Equity Incentive Plan or an Award or Award agreement may be made that would materially impair the rights of the holder, without such holder’s consent; however, no consent is required if the Administrator determines in its sole discretion and prior to the date of any change in control that such amendment or alteration either is required or advisable in order for the Company, the Equity Incentive Plan, or such Award to satisfy any law or regulation or to meet the requirements of or avoid adverse financial accounting consequences under any accounting standard, or is not reasonably likely to significantly diminish the benefits provided under such Award, or that any such diminishment has been adequately compensated.
Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following discussion of the federal income tax consequences of the Equity Incentive Plan is intended to be a summary of applicable federal law in the United States as currently in effect. It should not be taken as tax advice by participants, who are urged to consult their individual tax advisors.
Share Options
ISOs and NQSOs are treated differently for federal income tax purposes. ISOs are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. NQSOs do not comply with such requirements. An optionee is not taxed on the grant or exercise of an ISO. The difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date will, however, be a preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. If an optionee holds the shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO for at least two years following the option grant date and at least one year following exercise, the optionee’s gain, if any, upon a subsequent disposition of such shares is long term capital gain. The measure of the gain is the difference between the proceeds received on disposition and the optionee’s basis in the shares (which generally equals the exercise price). If an optionee disposes of shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO before satisfying these holding periods, the optionee will recognize both ordinary income and capital gain in the year of disposition. The Company is not entitled to an income tax deduction on the grant or exercise of an ISO or on the optionee’s disposition of the shares after satisfying the holding period requirement described above. If the holding periods are not satisfied, the Company will be entitled to a deduction in the year the optionee disposes of the shares in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the optionee.
In order for an option to qualify for ISO tax treatment, the grant of the option must satisfy various other conditions more fully described in the Code. The Company does not guarantee that any option will qualify for ISO tax treatment even if the option is intended to qualify for such treatment. In the event an option intended to be an ISO fails to so qualify, it will be taxed as an NQSO as described below.
 
17

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
An optionee is not taxed on the grant of an NQSO. On exercise, the optionee recognizes ordinary income equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares acquired on the date of exercise. The Company is entitled to an income tax deduction in the year of exercise in the amount recognized by the optionee as ordinary income. The optionee’s gain (or loss) on a subsequent disposition of the shares is long term capital gain (or loss) if the shares are held for at least one year following exercise. The Company does not receive a deduction for this gain.
SARs
An optionee is not taxed on the grant of a SAR. On exercise, the optionee recognizes ordinary income equal to the cash or the fair market value of any shares received. The Company is entitled to an income tax deduction in the year of exercise in the amount recognized by the optionee as ordinary income.
Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units
Generally, grantees of restricted shares or restricted share units do not recognize income at the time of the grant. When the award vests or is paid, grantees generally recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares or units at such time, and the Company will receive a corresponding deduction. However, no later than 30 days after a participant receives an award of restricted shares, the participant may elect to recognize taxable ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of receipt (i.e., grant). Provided that the election is made in a timely manner, when the restrictions on the shares lapse, the participant will not recognize any additional income. If the participant forfeits the shares to the Company (e.g., upon the participant’s termination prior to vesting), the participant may not claim a deduction with respect to the income recognized as a result of the election. Dividends paid with respect to unvested shares of restricted shares generally will be taxable as ordinary income to the participant at the time the dividends are received.
Cash Awards
A participant will have taxable income at the time a cash award becomes payable, and, if the participant has timely elected deferral to a later date, such later date. At that time, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the value of the amount then payable.
Company Deduction and Section 162(m)
In general, Section 162(m) of the Code limits a publicly traded company’s federal income tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1 million paid to its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the next three highest-paid executive officers. As such, we expect that we will be unable to deduct all compensation in excess of $1 million paid to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the next three highest-paid executive officers, other than previously granted awards that are subject to and comply with certain transition rules.
Withholding Taxes
The Company will generally be required to withhold applicable taxes with respect to any ordinary income recognized by a participant in connection with awards made under the Equity Incentive Plan. Whether or not such withholding is required, the Company will make such information reports to the Internal Revenue Service as may be required with respect to any income (whether or not that of an employee) attributable to transactions involving awards.
New Plan Benefits
Grants of awards under the Equity Incentive Plan are subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee. No determination has been made as to the Awards, if any, that any individuals who would be eligible to participate will be granted in the future under the Equity Incentive Plan. Therefore, the benefits or amounts that will be received by any participant or groups of participants under the Equity Incentive Plan in the future are not currently determinable.

Why We Need Shareholder Approval
We are seeking shareholder approval of the EIP Amendment Proposal in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c) and Section 20 of the Equity Incentive Plan, which requires shareholder approval to, among other enumerated items, increase the maximum number of ordinary shares for which Awards may be granted under the Equity Incentive Plan.
Dilution and Impact on Existing Shareholders
The future grant of Awards under the Equity Incentive Plan following approval of the EIP Amendment Proposal would have a dilutive effect on current shareholders in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such current shareholders would decline as a result of any grants. This means also that our existing shareholders would own a smaller interest in the Company as a result of any such grants and therefore have less ability to influence significant corporate decisions requiring shareholder approval. Awards pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, could also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for the Class A ordinary shares to decline.
Consequences if Shareholder Approval is Not Obtained
If we do not obtain the requisite shareholder approval of the EIP Amendment Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting, the EIP Amendment will not be adopted and the Equity Incentive Plan will remain in force and effect without, in management’s view, sufficient shares to make future grants to the Company’s employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers in the existing share reserve.
Vote Required
An ordinary resolution under our MAA is required to approve the EIP Amendment Proposal. As a result, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy who are entitled to vote and do in fact vote on the matter at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be required to approve the EIP Amendment Proposal.

PROPOSAL 4: APPROVE THE ADJOURNMENT
Overview
The Adjournment Proposal, if approved, will allow the chair of the Extraordinary General Meeting to adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting to a later date or dates to permit further solicitation of proxies. The Adjournment Proposal will only be presented to our shareholders in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes received at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve any or all of the other Proposals. In no event will the Board postpone the Extraordinary General Meeting beyond the date by which it may properly do so under our MAA and Cayman Islands law.
Consequences if Shareholder Approval is Not Obtained
If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved by our shareholders, the chair of the Extraordinary General Meeting will not adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting to a later date in the event, based on the tabulated votes, there are not sufficient votes received at the time of the Meeting to approve any or all of the Proposals.
Vote Required
An ordinary resolution under our MAA is required to approve the Adjournment Proposal. As a result, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy who are entitled to vote and do in fact vote on the matter at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be required to approve the Adjournment Proposal.

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
The following is a discussion and analysis of the compensation arrangements of the named executive officers and directors of Zura Bio Limited, a limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“Legacy Zura”), for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (“FY 2022”). As an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we are not required to include a Compensation Discussion and Analysis section and have elected to comply with the scaled back disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies.
To achieve the Company’s goals, we have designed, and intend to modify as necessary, our compensation and benefits program to attract, retain, incentivize and reward deeply talented and qualified executives who share our philosophy and desire to work towards achieving these goals.
We believe our compensation program should promote the success of the Company and align executive incentives with the long-term interests of our shareholders. As our needs evolve, we intend to continue to evaluate our philosophy and compensation programs as circumstances require.
During FY 2022, we were a privately-owned clinical-stage biotechnology company organized under the laws of England and Wales. The information disclosed below is not indicative of current or future executive or director compensation and is provided for the purpose of complying with applicable SEC rules.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our named executive officers were:

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our Class A ordinary shares as of May 18, 2023 by: (i) each of our named executive officers; (ii) each of our executive officers and directors; (iii) all of our executive officers and directors as a group; and (iv) each person or entity, or group of affiliated persons or entities, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding ordinary shares.
Information with respect to beneficial ownership is based on information furnished to us by each director, executive officer or shareholder who holds more than 5% of our outstanding ordinary shares, and Schedules 13G or 13D filed with the SEC, as the case may be. Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC and generally means that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he or she possesses sole or shared voting or investment power of that security, and includes options and warrants that are currently exercisable within 60 days of May 18, 2023. Options and warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares that are exercisable within 60 days of May 18, 2023 are deemed to be beneficially owned by the persons holding these options and warrants for the purpose of computing percentage ownership of that person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing any other person’s ownership percentage. Except as indicated in the footnotes below, each of the beneficial owners named in the table below has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to all ordinary shares listed as beneficially owned by him or her, except for Class A ordinary shares owned jointly with that person’s spouse.
We have based our calculation of beneficial ownership on 31,802,155 of our ordinary shares outstanding as of May 18, 2023. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each of the shareholders in the table below is c/o Zura Bio Limited, 4225 Executive Square, Suite 600, La Jolla, CA 92037.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS
The Company has adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, shareholders who have the same address and last name will receive only one copy of the Company’s proxy card or other Extraordinary General Meeting materials unless one or more of these shareholders notifies the Company that they wish to continue receiving individual copies. This procedure is designed for convenience for shareholders and cost savings for companies.
A single copy of the Company’s proxy materials will be delivered to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders. Your consent to householding is perpetual unless you revoke it. You may revoke your consent at any time by contacting your broker or the Company (in writing or orally) to Zura Bio Limited, 4225 Executive Square, Suite 600, La Jolla, CA 92037, Attn: Secretary and Chief Legal Officer, or at (858) 247-0520. You will be removed from the householding program, after which you will receive an individual copy of the proxy materials promptly.
Shareholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Company’s proxy materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.
SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE 2024 ANNUAL GENERAL
MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
We anticipate that the 2024 annual general meeting of shareholders will be held no later than December 31, 2024. For any proposal to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy for submission to the shareholders at Company’s 2024 annual general meeting of shareholders, it must be submitted in writing and comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. Such proposals must be received by the Company at its offices at 4225 Executive Square, Suite 600, La Jolla, CA 92037, within a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and send its proxy materials for the 2024 annual general meeting.
In addition, the MAA provides notice procedures for shareholders to nominate a person as a director candidate and to propose business (other than director nominations) to be considered by shareholders at the Company’s annual general meeting. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be received by the Company at its principal executive offices not less than 120 calendar days before the date of the Company’s proxy statement released to shareholders in connection with the previous year’s annual general meeting or, if the Company did not hold an annual general meeting the previous year, or if the date of the current year’s annual

general meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the date of the previous year’s annual general meeting, then the deadline shall be set by the Board with such deadline being a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and send its related proxy materials. Nominations and proposals also must satisfy other requirements set forth in the MAA. If any shareholder nomination or proposal is not made in compliance with the foregoing procedures, the chairperson of the meeting may declare that such nomination or proposal shall not be presented for shareholder action at the meeting and shall be disregarded.

WHEREAS, in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 and as further described herein, the Company desires to issue and the Subscriber desires to receive the Subscribed Shares in two tranches. As part of the first tranche, the Subscriber will receive that number of Ordinary Shares (the “First Subscribed Shares”) and that number of Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants (the “First Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants”) set forth on the signature page hereto. As part of the second tranche, subject to the Shareholder Approval Condition (as defined below) and any beneficial ownership limitation, the Subscriber will receive that number of Ordinary Shares (the “Second Subscribed Shares”) and that number of Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Second Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants”) set forth on the signature page hereto; and
WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Subscription Agreement, the Company will enter into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements” and, together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other qualified institutional buyers or institutional accredited investors (the “Other Subscribers” and, together with Subscriber, the “Subscribers”) and certain members of management of the Company who are not “institutional accounts” within the meaning of FINRA Rule 4512 (each, a “Management Investor”), pursuant to which such investors will agree to purchase Ordinary Shares (the “Other Subscribed Shares” and, together with the Subscribed Shares, the “Aggregate Subscribed Shares”) and Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Other Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants” and, together with the Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Aggregate Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants”) for an aggregate subscription amount, together with the Subscription Amount, of $80 million (the “Aggregate Subscription Amount”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Company and the Subscriber hereby agrees as follows:

(s)   The Subscriber hereby acknowledges and is aware that the Placement Agents are each acting as the Company’s placement agent in connection with the offering conducted under this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements.
(t)   Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that no Placement Agent shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Subscriber, the Company or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Subscriber, or to any person claiming through the Subscriber, in respect of this offering of the Subscribed Shares and the Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants.

6.   Registration of Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares.
(a)   The Company agrees that, (i) within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the First Closing (the “First Filing Deadline”), the Company will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “First Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the First Subscribed Shares and the First Warrant Shares and naming the Subscriber as a selling shareholder thereunder, and (ii) within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Second Closing (the “Second Filing Deadline”), the Company will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Second Registration Statement” and together with the first Registration Statement, the “Registration Statements” and each, a “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the Second Subscribed Shares and the Second Warrant Shares, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statements declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 60th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the First Registration Statement or Second Registration Statement, as applicable) following the First Filing Deadline or the Second Filing Deadline, as applicable, and (ii) the 5th Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the

Effectiveness Date”); provided, however, that the Company’s obligations to include the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares in the applicable Registration Statement are contingent upon the Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the Subscriber, the securities of the Company held by the Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Subscribed Shares and the Warrant Shares as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the resale of the Subscribed Shares and the Warrant Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling shareholder in similar situations; provided that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any lock-up or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer the Subscribed Shares, the Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants or the Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the applicable Effectiveness Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Date shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of the First Registration Statement and the Second Registration Statement, as applicable, to the Subscriber for review at least two (2) business days in advance of filing such Registration Statement. In no event shall the Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in either Registration Statement; provided, that if the Commission requires that the Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in a Registration Statement, the Subscriber will have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (i) have the opportunity to withdraw from such Registration Statement upon its prompt written request to the Company, in which case the Company’s obligation to register the Subscribed Shares will be deemed satisfied or (ii) be included as such in such Registration Statement. Upon notification by the Commission that any Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, within one (1) business day thereafter, the Company shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the applicable Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the respective Aggregate Subscribed Shares and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Aggregate Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the staff of the Commission for the registration of all or a greater portion of the Aggregate Subscribed Shares and/or Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Aggregate Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants), such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Aggregate Subscribed Shares and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Aggregate Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants that is equal to the maximum number of Aggregate Subscribed Shares and Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Aggregate Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Subscribed Shares, Warrant Shares, Other Subscribed Shares or Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Other Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants to be registered for each selling shareholder named in the applicable Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling shareholders and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Aggregate Subscribed Shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall amend the applicable Registration Statement or file one or more new registration statement(s) (such amendment or new registration statement shall also be deemed to be a “Registration Statement” hereunder) to register such additional Aggregate Subscribed Shares and/or Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Aggregate Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants not included in any prior Registration Statement and cause such Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than 30 calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement (the “Additional Effectiveness Date”); provided, that the Additional Effectiveness Date shall be extended to sixty (60) calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement if the SEC notifies the Company that it will “review” such Registration Statement; provided, further, notwithstanding the foregoing, that the Company shall have such Registration Statement declared effective within five (5) business days after the date the Company is notified in writing by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Company to file the applicable Registration Statement by the First Filing Deadline or the Second Filing Deadline, as applicable, to effect such Registration Statement by the applicable Effectiveness Date (or Additional Effectiveness Date) shall not

otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or effect the applicable Registration Statement set forth in this Section 6.
(b)   In the case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request, respond to Subscriber as to the status of such registration, qualification, exemption and compliance.

(ii)   advise Subscriber, as expeditiously as possible by e-mail, and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours:
(1)   when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(2)   after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; provided that no such notice is required when supplements to such Registration Statement have been filed;
(3)   after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;
(4)   of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Subscribed Shares or Warrant Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
(5)   subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company;
(iii)   use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;
(iv)   upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 6(b)(ii)(4) above, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a

prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(v)   until the Subscriber no longer holds any Subscribed Shares, Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants or Warrant Shares, cause the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Ordinary Shares issued by the Company have been listed;
(vi)   use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow Subscriber to review, and reasonably consider comments by Subscriber, on disclosure regarding Subscriber in the Registration Statement;
(vii)   for as long as Subscriber holds Subscribed Shares or Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants, use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, (B) file in a timely manner all reports and other documents with the Commission required under the Exchange Act all reports for so long as the condition in Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) is required to be satisfied, and (C) provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Subscriber to resell the Subscribed Shares or the Warrant Shares, as applicable, pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement or Rule 144 of the Securities Act (in each case, when Rule 144 of the Securities Act becomes available to Subscriber), as applicable; and
(viii)   otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by Subscriber, consistent with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, in connection with the registration of the resale of the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares.
(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to delay or postpone the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, and from time to time to require any Subscriber not to sell under the applicable Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness thereof, (x) if (i) it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment or supplement thereto would be needed or (ii) the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Company or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event, the Company reasonably believes, upon the advice of outside legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by the Company in such Registration Statement of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in such Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the Company, upon the advice of legal counsel, to cause such Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements and (y) as may be necessary in connection with the preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement following the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its first completed fiscal year following the First Closing (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Company may not delay or suspend either Registration Statement on more than two (2) occasions or for more than forty-five (45) consecutive calendar days, or more than a total of ninety (90) calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any Suspension Event (which notices shall not contain any material, non-public information or subject Subscriber to any duty of confidentiality) during the period that the applicable Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event such Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares under such Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended

prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales (which notices shall not contain any material, nonpublic information or subject Subscriber to any duty of confidentiality). If so directed by the Company, Subscriber will deliver to the Company or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares shall not apply (i) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended Ordinary Shares to a transferee of the Subscriber in connection with any sale of Subscribed Shares with respect to which the Subscriber has entered into a contract for sale, prior to the Subscriber’s receipt of the notice of a Suspension Event and for which the Subscriber has not yet settled.
(d)   Subject to Section 6(c) above, if: (a) a Registration Statement covering all of the Aggregate Subscribed Shares required to be covered thereby and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement is: (i) not filed with the Commission on or before the First Filing Deadline or the Second Filing Deadline, as applicable (a “Filing Failure”), or (ii) not declared effective by the Commission on or before the Effectiveness Date (an “Effectiveness Failure”), (b) on any day during the period commencing on the First Closing Date and ending on the earliest of: (x) the date as of which the Subscriber may sell all of the Subscribed Shares under Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirements under Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the Securities Act; (y) the second anniversary of the Second Closing Date; or (z) the date on which such Subscriber shall have sold all of the Subscribed Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement (the “Reporting Period”), sales of all of the Aggregate Subscribed Shares required to be included on such Registration Statement cannot be made, or (c) if the applicable Registration Statement is on Form S-1, for a period of fifteen (15) days following the date the Company files a post-effective amendment to incorporate the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective, to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement or to register a sufficient number of ordinary shares) (a “Maintenance Failure”), then, in addition to any other rights the holders may have under this Agreement or under applicable law, the Company shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, to each holder of Aggregate Subscribed Shares relating to such Registration Statement an amount in cash equal to one percent (1.0%) of such holder’s Pro Rata Interest in the Aggregate Subscription Amount on the initial day of a Maintenance Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (prorated for periods totaling less than thirty (30) days) thereafter until such Maintenance Failure is cured. The payments to which a holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 6(d) are referred to herein as “Registration Delay Payments”; provided, that no Registration Delay Payments shall be required following the termination of the Reporting Period. The first such Registration Delay Payment shall be paid within three (3) Business Days after the event or failure giving rise to such Registration Delay Payment occurred and all other Registration Delay Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (I) the last day of the calendar month during which such Registration Delay Payments are incurred and (II) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Registration Delay Payments is cured. For purposes of this Section 6(d), “Pro Rata Interest” is defined as the number of Subscribed Shares purchased by the applicable Subscriber, relative to the Aggregate Subscribed Shares.
(e)   The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber (to the extent a seller under a Registration Statement), and its officers, directors, partners, managers, members, stockholders, advisers and agents, and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, managers, members, stockholders, advisers and agents of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from

and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statements, any prospectus included in the Registration Statements or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 6, except, in each case, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by Subscriber expressly for use therein or such Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information or otherwise violated the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected by Subscriber without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by a Subscriber, (B) in connection with any failure of Subscriber to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available to Subscriber by the Company in a timely manner, (C) as a result of offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber by means of a freewriting prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) that was not authorized by the Company, or (D) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of a Subscriber in violation of Section 6(b) of this Subscription Agreement. The Company shall notify such Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6 of which the Company is aware. The indemnity set forth in this Section 6(e) shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares by Subscriber.
(f)   If the total number of Ordinary Shares that Subscriber and any other person(s) intend to include in an underwritten offering exceeds the number of Ordinary Shares that can be sold in an underwritten offering without being likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of Ordinary Shares offered or the market for the Ordinary Shares as determined by the managing underwriter of such offering, then the Ordinary Shares to be included in such offering shall include the number of Ordinary Shares that the managing underwriter of the offering advises the Company can be sold without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated (i) first, to the Company or other party or parties requesting or initiating such registration or to any other holder of securities of the Company having rights of registration pursuant to an existing registration rights agreement and (ii) second, Subscribers, allocated among Subscribers on the basis of the number of Ordinary Shares proposed to be sold by each applicable member of Subscribers in such underwritten offering (based, for each such participant, described in this clause (ii), on the percentage derived by dividing (x) the number of Ordinary Shares proposed to be sold by such participant in such underwritten offering by (y) the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares proposed to be sold by all such participants) or in such manner as they may agree, and (iii) third, to other holders of Ordinary Shares with registration rights entitling them to participate in such underwritten offering.
(g)   Subscriber (to the extent a seller under a Registration Statement), severally and not jointly with the Other Subscribers, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents, trustees, partners, members, managers, shareholders, affiliates, investment advisors and employees, and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statements, any prospectus included in the Registration Statements, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or

any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by Subscriber expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 6(g) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the written consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) nor shall Subscriber be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Company. In no event shall the liability of any Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares or Warrant Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Subscriber shall notify the Company promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 6(g) of which such Subscriber is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares and Warrant Shares by Subscriber.
(h)   Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claims, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement), which settlement shall not include a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party, and which settlement shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
(i)   If the indemnification provided under this Section 6 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that the liability of Subscriber shall be limited to the net proceeds received by Subscriber from the sale of Subscribed Shares or Warrant Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission) such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 12(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 6(i) from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

7.   Termination.   This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, (a) upon the mutual written agreement of the Company and Subscriber to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (b) if any of the conditions to First Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement are (i) not satisfied or waived in writing by the party entitled to the benefit of such condition prior to the First Closing Date or (ii) not capable of being satisfied on the First Closing Date and, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement will not be and are not consummated at the First Closing Date, (c) if any of the conditions to Second Closing set forth in Section 3 of this Subscription Agreement are (x) not satisfied or waived in writing by the party entitled to the benefit of such condition prior to the Second Closing Date or (y) not capable of being satisfied on the Second Closing Date and, in the case of each of (x) and (y), as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement will not be and are not consummated at the Second Closing Date or (d) on or after May 5, 2023, if the First Closing has not occurred and prior to the consummation of the First Closing, the Subscriber delivers written notice to the Company specifying that the Subscriber has elected not to proceed with the consummation of the First Closing (the termination events described in clauses (a)  – (d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a Subscriber’s willful breach of Section 2(d) of this Subscription Agreement with respect to its representations, warranties and covenants as of the date of the First Closing and Section 3(d) of this Subscription Agreement with respect to its representations, warranties and covenants as of the date of the Second Closing) prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach.

from any such information, materials, statements or opinions or this Subscription Agreement or any Other Subscription Agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by Subscriber pursuant hereto or by any Other Subscriber pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Subscriber and Other Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Subscriber and Other Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements. Subscriber acknowledges that no Other Subscriber has acted as agent for Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Subscriber will be acting as agent of Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Shares and the Private Placement Pre-Funded Warrants or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Subscriber to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

The headings contained in this Subscription Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Subscription Agreement. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Subscription Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural, and vice versa. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The word “or” is used in the inclusive sense of “and/or.” The terms “or,” “any” and “either” are not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. When used in the agreement, “person” shall mean any natural person, corporation, exempted company, limited liability company, partnership, exempted limited partnership, association, trust or other entity, including a governmental entity, as applicable. No summary of this Subscription Agreement prepared by any party shall affect the meaning or interpretation of this Subscription Agreement. The parties agree that the terms “material,” “materially” and “materiality” as used in this Subscription Agreement with an initial lower case “m” shall have their respective customary and ordinary meanings, without regard to the meanings ascribed to Company Material Adverse Effect or Subscriber Material Adverse Effect as defined in this Subscription Agreement.
(w)   The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the business objectives and operations of the Company to avoid being treated in any taxable year as a “passive foreign investment company” ​(“PFIC”) as such term is defined in Section 1297 of the Code. No later than 90 days following the end of each Company taxable year, the Company shall determine and advise the Subscriber whether the Company is expected to be, or was, a PFIC or a “Controlled Foreign Corporation” ​(“CFC”) as defined in the Code for any taxable year and to determine whether such Subscriber or any of such Subscriber’s Partners is required to (x) report its pro rata portion of the Company’s “Subpart F Income” as defined in Section 951 of the Code and the regulations thereunder on its United States federal income tax return or (y) include in gross income global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) as defined in Section 951A of the Code and the regulations thereunder, or to allow such Subscriber or such Subscriber’s Partners to otherwise comply with applicable United States federal income tax laws. If the Company determines that it will be a PFIC or CFC for any taxable year, the Company will, with such advice as may be reasonably requested from such Subscriber, prepare the information required to comply with applicable PFIC and/or CFC reporting requirements. For purposes of the foregoing, (i) the term “Subscriber’s Partners” shall mean each of the Subscriber’s partners and any direct or indirect equity owners of such partners and (ii) the “Company” shall mean the Company and any of its subsidiaries. In connection with a “Qualified Electing Fund” election made by the Subscriber or any of the Subscriber’s Partners pursuant to Section 1295 of the Code or a “Protective Statement” filed by the Subscriber or any of Subscriber’s Partners pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-3, as amended (or any successor thereto), the Company shall provide PFIC Annual Information Statement pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-1, as amended (or any successor thereto), and annual financial information to the relevant Subscriber(s) as soon as reasonably practicable following the end of each taxable year of the Company (but in no event later than 60 days

following the end of each such taxable year), and shall provide such Subscriber(s) with access to such other Company information as may reasonably be required for purposes of filing U.S. federal income tax returns of the Subscriber and such Subscriber’s Partners in connection with any such Qualified Electing Fund election or Protective Statement. At the reasonable request of such Subscriber, the Company will obtain advice of professionals experienced in matters relating to the relevant aspects of the Code of its choice, to the extent necessary to make the determination and to provide the information described above.
(x)   The Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate the transactions contemplated by those certain voting agreements which shall include the affirmative obligation of each Principal Shareholder to vote in favor of the Shareholder Approval (each a “Voting Agreement” and together, the “Voting Agreements”), executed by the Company and certain Shareholders who in the aggregate own or control more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (collectively, the “Principal Shareholders”). The Company shall not amend or waive any provision of the Voting Agreements and shall enforce the provisions of the Voting Agreements in accordance with their terms. If any of the Principal Shareholders materially breach any provisions of their Voting Agreement, the Company shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek specific performance of the terms of such Voting Agreement. In addition, if the Company receives a notice of material breach from any of the Principal Shareholders pursuant to a Voting Agreement, the Company shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days, deliver a copy of such notice to the Subscriber.

ZURA BIO LIMITED
Pre-Funded Warrant to Purchase Ordinary Shares
Warrant No.:
Number of Ordinary Shares:
Date of Issuance:        , 2023 (“Issuance Date”)
Zura Bio Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [HOLDER], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, until exercised in full (the “Termination Date”),           (         ) fully paid non-assessable Ordinary Shares of the Company (as defined below), subject to adjustment as provided herein (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Pre-Funded Warrant to Purchase Ordinary Shares (including any Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase Ordinary Shares issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Warrant”), shall have the meanings set forth in Section 16. This Warrant is one of the Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase Ordinary Shares (the “Warrants”) issued pursuant to that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated as of April 26, 2023 (the “Subscription Date”) by and between the Company and the Holder.
This Warrant is issued pursuant to, and is subject to the terms and conditions of, the Subscription Agreement.
1.   EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(a)   Mechanics of Exercise.   Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, in whole or in part, by delivery (whether via facsimile, electronic mail or otherwise) of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Exercise Notice(s) delivered on or prior to the Issuance Date, which may be delivered at any time after the execution of the Subscription Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver the Warrant Shares subject to such Exercise Notice(s) by 5 p.m. (New York time) on the Issuance Date. Within one (1) Trading Day following the delivery of the Exercise Notice, the Holder shall make payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds or, if the provisions of Section 1(d) are applicable, by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder (until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full), nor shall any ink-original signature or medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) with respect to any Exercise Notice be required. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares and the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Exercise Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Holder has delivered the applicable Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice, in the form attached to the Exercise Notice, to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). So long as the Holder delivers the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, then on or prior to the earlier of (i) the second (2nd) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, or, if the Holder does not deliver the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, then on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) is delivered (such earlier date, or if later, the earliest day on which the Company is required to deliver Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 1(a), the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent and all fees and expenses with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares via DTC, if any, including without limitation for same day processing. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record and beneficial owner of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is physically delivered to the Company in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Trading Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares issuable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver Warrant Shares with respect to an exercise prior to the Holder’s delivery of the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) with respect to such exercise.
(b)   Exercise Price.   The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.001 per Warrant Share, was pre-funded to the Company on or prior to the Issuance Date and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise price of $0.001 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any Person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such
 
B-2

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever, including in the event this Warrant shall not have been exercised prior to the Termination Date. The remaining unpaid exercise price per Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be $0.001, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).
(c)   Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities.   In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, (1) if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(a) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Share Delivery Date or (2) if a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of an Exercise Notice (the “Exercise Notice Warrant Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares, the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after such registration statement becomes unavailable, to so notify the Holder, and in connection with a sale of any such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares (the “Sold Exercise Warrant Shares”), the Company is unable to deliver the Sold Exercise Notice Warrant Shares without a restrictive legend, and if after such date, as a result of such failure set forth in (1) or (2), the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Holder’s request, (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Ordinary Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. The obligation of the Company to pay compensation for Buy-In under this Section 1(c) is subject to delivery by the Holder of the aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with the terms of Section 1(a). The Company’s current transfer agent participates in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”). In the event that the Company changes transfer agents while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall select a transfer agent that participates in FAST. While this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to participate in FAST with respect to the Warrant Shares. In addition to the foregoing rights, (1) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and (2) if a registration statement covering the resale of Exercise Notice Warrant Shares is not available for the resale of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares, the Holder has submitted an Exercise Notice prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement, and the Company has not already delivered to the Holder the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares without any restrictive legend, then the Holder shall have the right to (x) rescind such Exercise Notice in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice

pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Exercise Notice from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise. In addition to the foregoing, if due solely to the action or inaction of the Company, the Company fails to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to an Exercise Notice by the third Trading Day following the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the Weighted Average Price of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the second Trading Day following such Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise.
(d)   Cashless Exercise.   Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a registration statement registering the resale of the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is not effective or available for the resale of the Warrant Shares, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of Ordinary Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
Net Number =
(A x B) – (A x C)
B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.
B= as applicable: (i) the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” ​(as defined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) the Bid Price of the Ordinary Shares as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof or (iii) the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day.
C= $0.001, as adjusted hereunder.
If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the Company acknowledges and agrees that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrants being exercised may be tacked on to the holding period of the Warrant Shares. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 1(d).
(e)   Disputes.   In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 11.
(f)   Beneficial Ownership.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution

Parties shall include the number of Ordinary Shares held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preference shares or warrants, including the other Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 1(f). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 1(f) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding Ordinary Shares is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder any exercise price paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of Ordinary Shares to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be immediately surrendered for nil consideration pursuant to Section 37B of the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands (and the Company hereby agrees to accept such surrender). For purposes of clarity, the Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this

Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. This Section 1(f) shall not restrict the number of Ordinary Shares which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 4(b) of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99% specified in such notice; provided that any increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company.
(g)   Required Reserve Amount.   So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Warrant a number of Ordinary Shares at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of Ordinary Shares as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue Ordinary Shares under the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of Ordinary Shares reserved pursuant to this Section 1(g) be reduced other than in connection with any exercise of Warrants or such other event covered by Section 2 below. The Required Reserve Amount (including, without limitation, each increase in the number of shares so reserved) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Warrants based on the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants held by each holder thereof on the Issuance Date (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Warrants, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any Ordinary Shares reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Warrants shall be allocated to the remaining holders of Warrants, pro rata based on the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants then held by such holders thereof (without regard to any limitations on exercise).
(h)   Insufficient Authorized Shares.   If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Ordinary Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall promptly take all action reasonably necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Ordinary Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for this Warrant then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a general meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized Ordinary Shares. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized Ordinary Shares and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal.
2.   ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES UPON SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF ORDINARY SHARES.   If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any share split, share dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Ordinary Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by combination, reverse share split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
3.   RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.   In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if, on or after the Subscription Date and on or prior to the Termination Date, the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any

distribution of cash, share or other securities, property, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution (being the record date fixed for such Distribution or the date on which the Company’s register of members is closed for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to participate in such Distribution), or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation). For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder’s entitlement to participate in a Distribution pursuant to this Section 3, (i) shall be solely a contractual right to receive assets in connection with the Distribution in respect of any remaining Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant and (ii) shall not and shall not be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to such remaining Warrant Shares.
4.   PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.
(a)   Purchase Rights.   In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time on or after the Subscription Date and on or prior to the Termination Date the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase shares, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights (being the record date fixed for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or the date on which the Company’s register of members is closed for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights), or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right to be held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation). For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder’s entitlement to acquire Purchase Rights pursuant to this Section 4, (i) shall be solely a contractual right to acquire Purchase Rights in respect of any remaining Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant and (ii) shall not and shall not be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to such remaining Warrant Shares.

(b)   Fundamental Transaction.   The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b), including agreements to deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the Ordinary Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Upon the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for the Company (so that from and after the date of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting Section 1(f) hereof, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 4(b) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for Ordinary Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the Ordinary Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 3 and 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) (collectively, the “Corporate Event Consideration”) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant). The provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events.
5.   NONCIRCUMVENTION.   The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any Ordinary Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrants, the Required Reserve Amount.
6.   WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A SHAREHOLDER.   Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares in the capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of

shares, reclassification of shares, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the shareholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the shareholders; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of any corporate action required to be specified in such notice.
7.   REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.
(a)   Transfer of Warrant.   If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.
(b)   Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant.   Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form (but without the obligation to post a bond) and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.
(c)   Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants.   This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.
(d)   Issuance of New Warrants.   Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of Ordinary Shares underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.
8.   NOTICES.   Whenever notice is required to be given under this Warrant, including, without limitation, an Exercise Notice, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in writing, (i) if delivered (a) from within the domestic United States, by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, electronic mail or by facsimile or (b) from outside the United States, by International Federal Express, electronic mail or facsimile, and (ii) will be deemed given (A) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail domestic, three (3) Business Days after so mailed, (B) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one (1) Business Day after so mailed, (C) if delivered by International Federal Express, two (2) Business Days after so mailed and (D) on the date of transmission, if delivered by electronic mail to each of the email addresses specified in this Section 8 prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Trading Day, (E) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if delivered by electronic mail to each of the email addresses specified in this Section 8 on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Trading Day and (F) if delivered by facsimile, upon electronic confirmation of delivery of such facsimile, and will be delivered and addressed as follows:

The Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Warrant, including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will give written notice to the Holder (i) immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment and (ii) at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its register of members or fixes record date (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Ordinary Shares, (B) with respect to any grants, issuances or sales of any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase shares, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Fundamental Transaction, dissolution or liquidation; provided in each case that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to the Holder; provided, further, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. It is expressly understood and agreed that the time of exercise specified by the Holder in each Exercise Notice shall be definitive and may not be disputed or challenged by the Company.
9.   AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.   Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Warrant may be amended or waived and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holder.
10.   GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL.   This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.
11.   DISPUTE RESOLUTION.   In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile or electronic mail within two (2) Business Days of receipt of the Exercise Notice or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to the Holder.

12.   REMEDIES, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.   The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and any other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue

actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder may cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to seek an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, other than as expressly provided in Section 1(c) hereof, if the Company is for any reason unable to issue and deliver Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall have no obligation to pay to the Holder any cash or other consideration or otherwise “net cash settle” this Warrant.

This Warrant may be executed by facsimile signature or electronic mail (including pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com).
14.   SEVERABILITY; CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS.   If any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). This Warrant shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Warrant.
15.   DISCLOSURE.   Upon receipt or delivery by the Company of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, unless the Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its subsidiaries, the Company shall contemporaneously with any such receipt or delivery, publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise. In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to such Holder contemporaneously with delivery of such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holder shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its subsidiaries.
16.   CERTAIN DEFINITIONS.   For purposes of this Warrant, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

If the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 11. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any share dividend, share split, share combination or other similar transaction during such period.
