The reverse stock split is intended to increase the price per share of Athira's common stock to allow the Company to demonstrate compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, to potentially improve the marketability and liquidity of the Company鈥檚 common stock and to appeal to a broader range of investors to generate greater investor interest in the Company.

As of the Effective Time, every ten (10) shares of Athira鈥檚 issued and outstanding common stock will be combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, and the total number of authorized shares of Athira鈥檚 common stock will be reduced from 900,000,000 to 90,000,000.

Proportional adjustments will be made to the exercise price and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company鈥檚 outstanding options, to the shares of common stock issuable upon the vesting of the Company鈥檚 outstanding restricted stock units, and to the number of shares authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to Athira鈥檚 equity incentive plans. The total number of authorized shares of preferred stock will not be reduced and remains at 100,000,000 shares. Any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable as a result of the reverse stock split will be paid out in cash.
