(Nasdaq: ZVSA; “ZyVersa”), a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class drugs for treatment of patients with renal and inflammatory diseases who have unmet medical needs, announces that it has entered into a share purchase agreement (SPA) with Williamsburg Venture Holdings (WVH), an institutional investor. We anticipate that this partnership will provide a flexible source of funding, enabling the company to progress clinical development of Cholesterol Efflux Mediator™ VAR 200 to treat chronic kidney diseases. The global drug market for kidney diseases was $18 Billion in 2024, with $30 Billion projected by 2034 (Precedence Research). The SPA allows ZyVersa to be judicious and plan for the timing and amount of any equity sales as we advance clinical development of VAR 200 to achieve key milestones. We aim to use the SPA in a manner that will minimize dilution while creating and sustaining shareholder value. Under the terms of the agreement, ZyVersa has the right to sell, and WVH has the obligation to purchase up to $10 million worth of common stock over a 24-month period at prices that are a discount to the market price after each sale to WVH. ZyVersa, at its sole discretion, controls the timing and amount of all sales of common stock. There are no warrants, derivatives, or other share classes associated with the SPA. In connection with the execution of the SPA, ZyVersa will issue 2.5% of commitment shares to WVH over the term of the deal, based on the percentage of the $10 million of common stock that has been purchased by WVH. A copy of the SPA is available in the Company's Form 8-K that has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these common shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
