Explanatory Note

 

On March 27, 2024, Gamida Cell Ltd. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) reporting, among other things, (i) the entry into a Restructuring Support Agreement with Gamida Cell Inc. and certain funds managed by Highbridge Capital Management LLC (the “Support Agreement”) and (ii) the Company’s filing of a voluntary proceeding for restructuring (the “Restructuring Proceeding”) in the District Court of Beersheba, Israel (the “District Court”) pursuant to Part 10 to the Israeli Restructuring and Financial Rehabilitation Law, 2018. The Form 8-K also described the anticipated terms and conditions of the Company’s debt arrangement (the “Debt Arrangement”) pursuant to the Support Agreement. The Form 8-K was subsequently amended on March 29, 2024, April 5, 2024, and April 11, 2024. This Amendment No. 4 on Form 8-K/A is being filed by the Company in order to provide a further update regarding events related to the Restructuring Proceeding.

  

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On May 8, 2024, the District Court entered a Judgment in the Restructuring Proceeding, which, among other things, (i) approves the Debt Arrangement and other terms and conditions of the Company’s restructuring as set forth in the Support Agreement, subject to an amendment of section 5.3 of the Debt Arrangement improving the terms of the contingent value rights (“CVRs”) in accordance with the District Court expert’s recommendation; and (ii) rejects all of the requests and claims made by certain shareholders of the Company. The terms of the modified CVRs will be reflected in an amendment to the Support Agreement and described in a further amendment to the Form 8-K.

 

An official English translation of the District Court’s decision is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding the Company’s Ordinary Shares

 

The Company cautions that trading in its ordinary shares during the pendency of the Restructuring Proceeding is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the ordinary shares may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders of the ordinary shares in the Restructuring Proceeding. The Company expects that holders of the ordinary shares could experience a significant or complete loss on their investment, depending on the outcome of the Restructuring Proceeding.
