Explanatory Note

On June 3, 2024, Illumina, Inc. (the “Company” or “Illumina”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) to announce that its board of directors approved the separation (the “Spin-Off”) of GRAIL, LLC (“GRAIL”), to be effected by the Company’s distribution of at least 85.5% of the shares of common stock of GRAIL, par value $0.001 per share, to holders of common stock of the Company as a pro rata dividend in the Spin-Off (the “Distribution”). The Original 8-K also included information regarding anticipated dates affecting the trading of GRAIL’s and Illumina’s common stock in connection with the Distribution. This Form 8-K/A is being filed to further clarify those dates.

 

Item 8.01.

Other Events.

The Distribution is expected to be effective at 12:01 A.M. New York City time on June 24, 2024 (the “Distribution Date”). Beginning on or about June 12, 2024, and continuing through, and including, the Distribution Date, it is expected that GRAIL common stock will trade on a “when-issued” basis on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “GRALV.” On Tuesday, June 25, 2024, the first trading day following the Distribution Date, GRAIL is expected to begin trading “regular way” on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “GRAL.”

Beginning on or about June 12, 2024, and continuing through, and including, the Distribution Date, it is expected that there will be two markets in Illumina common stock. Illumina common stock that trades in the “regular way” market under the symbol “ILMN” will trade with an entitlement to shares of GRAIL common stock to be distributed pursuant to the Distribution. Illumina common stock that trades in the “ex-distribution” market under the symbol “ILMNV” will trade without an entitlement to shares of GRAIL common stock. On Tuesday, June 25, 2024, the first trading day following the Distribution Date, there will no longer be two markets in Illumina common stock and Illumina will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “ILMN.”
