Explanatory Note
On March 27, 2024, Gamida Cell Ltd. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on 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 and (ii) the Company’s filing of a voluntary proceeding for restructuring (the “Restructuring Proceeding”) in the District Court of Beersheba, Israel pursuant to Part 10 to the Israeli Restructuring and Financial Rehabilitation Law, 2018. On March 29, 2024, the Company filed the Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to file an English translation of certain of the filings in the Restructuring Proceeding with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). This Amendment No. 2 on Form 8-K/A is being filed by the Company in order to file certain appendices to the filings in the Restructuring Proceeding with the SEC.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A is incorporated herein by reference and is comprised of the following appendices to the filings in the Restructuring Proceeding: (i) an Economic Expert Opinion and Valuation of the Company dated March 25, 2024, (ii) certain documents regarding the cash position of the Company, (iii) a list of directors and officers of the Company, (iv) the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, and (v) the Affidavit of Abigail Jenkins, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Cautionary Note Regarding the Company’s Ordinary Shares
The Company cautions that trading in the 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.
