Pulse Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: PLSE), a company leveraging its
novel and proprietary Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation™ (nano-PFA
or nsPFA™) technology, today announced that it intends to deliver
an irrevocable notice of redemption, on or about December 27, 2024,
to redeem the first tranche of common stock warrants, redeemable by
the Company if the Company’s stock trading price exceeds $16.50 for
twenty consecutive trading days, that were issued as part of its
July 3, 2024 rights offering which are still outstanding as of
February 5, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”). These outstanding common
stock warrants (the “150% Warrants”), which were issued in the
Company’s 2024 rights offering (the “Rights Offering”), pursuant to
the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3, as amended (File
No. 333-278494), may be exercised by the holders thereof until 6:30
p.m., Eastern time, on the Redemption Date, at the exercise price
of $11.00 per share of Company common stock, $0.001 par value per
share. Any 150% Warrants not exercised before 6:30 p.m., Eastern
time, on February 5, 2025, will be redeemed by the Company for
$0.01 per 150% Warrant share (the “Redemption Price”).
Under the terms of the 150% Warrants, the Company has the right
to redeem the 150% Warrants (CUSIP # 74587B135) if the volume
weighted average price (as defined therein, “VWAP”) exceeds $16.50
per share for twenty (20) consecutive trading days at least three
months after the date that the 150% Warrants were issued. This
requirement was met for each of the twenty consecutive trading days
preceding December 23, 2024. Over this period, the Company had an
average VWAP of $18.85.
Any 150% Warrants that remain unexercised at 6:30 p.m., Eastern
time, on the Redemption Date, will be void and no longer
exercisable, and the holders of those 150% Warrants will be
entitled to receive only the Redemption Price of $0.01 per 150%
Warrant share. The second tranche of common stock warrants issued
in the Rights Offering (the “200% Warrants”) are not being redeemed
at this time.
The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $60 million
from its Rights Offering, which was completed in July 2024, and the
Company will receive an additional $66 million of gross proceeds,
if all of the 150% Warrants and all of the 200% Warrants
(collectively, the “Warrants”) are exercised prior to the
Redemption Date.
None of the Company, its board of directors or employees has
made or is making any representation or recommendation to any
holder of any Warrants as to whether to exercise or refrain from
exercising any Warrants.
A registration statement, as amended, relating to the Rights
Offering was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) and declared effective on May 31, 2024. A
prospectus relating to the offering was filed with the SEC on and
supplemented on June 4, 2024 and is available on the SEC’s
website.
The Company will post a copy of the notice of redemption being
sent to the holders of the 150% Warrants on its investor relations
website at investors.pulsebiosciences.com.

Warrants can be directed to Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions,
