Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Merger Agreement
On December 17, 2025, VYNE
Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization
(the “Merger Agreement”) with Yarrow Bioscience, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Yarrow”), and Yellow Merger Sub
Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other matters,
and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Yarrow,
with Yarrow continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”).
The Merger is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Subject to the terms and
conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), (a) each then outstanding
share of Yarrow capital stock (the “Yarrow Capital Stock”) (including any shares of Yarrow Capital Stock issued pursuant to
the Pre-Closing Financing (as defined below) and Yarrow’s Series A preferred financing described below), and excluding shares of
Yarrow Capital Stock held as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time and any dissenting shares, will be converted into
the right to receive a number of shares of Company common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Company Common Stock”), calculated
in accordance with the Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”), (b) each then-outstanding option to purchase shares of Yarrow
common stock that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, will cease to represent
a right to acquire shares of Yarrow common stock and will be converted into and become an option to purchase shares of Company Common
Stock on the existing terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting and accelerated vesting), subject to adjustment as set forth
in the Merger Agreement, and (c) each then outstanding and unexercised warrant to purchase shares of Yarrow common stock will be converted
into and become a warrant to purchase shares of Company Common Stock on the existing terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting
and accelerated vesting), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, prior to
the Effective Time, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) will accelerate the vesting of all options to purchase
Company Common Stock (the “Company Options”) and restricted stock units (the “Company Restricted Stock Units”).
Each then outstanding Company Option with an exercise price per share greater than the volume weighted average closing trading price of
a share of Company Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) for the five (5) consecutive trading days ending
three (3) trading days prior to the Calculation Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement), as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (the “Company
Closing Price” and such Company Options, “In-the-Money Company Options”), will be cancelled at the Effective Time and
such holder thereof will receive an amount in cash, without interest, less any applicable tax withholding, equal to the product obtained
by multiplying the excess of the Company Closing Price over the exercise price per share of the Company Common Stock underlying such Company
Option by the number of shares of the Company Common Stock underlying such Company Option. Each Company Option with an exercise price
greater than the Company Closing Price will be cancelled for no consideration. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each holder of
an accelerated Company Restricted Stock Unit will be entitled to receive a number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to the number
of vested and unsettled shares underlying such Company Restricted Stock Unit.
Pursuant to the
Exchange Ratio formula in the Merger Agreement, upon the closing of the Merger, on a pro forma basis and based upon the number of
shares of Company Common Stock expected to be issued in the Merger (including following the consummation of the Pre-Closing
Financing and Yarrow’s Series A preferred financing), pre-Merger Yarrow stockholders are expected to own approximately 97% of
the combined company and pre-Merger Company stockholders are expected to own approximately 3% of the combined company. For purposes
of calculating the Exchange Ratio, (i) shares of Company Common Stock underlying In-the-Money Company Options (other than such
In-the-Money Company Options cashed out in accordance with the Merger Agreement which would reduce the calculation of the Company’s net cash), warrants or other rights or commitments to receive shares of Company Common Stock, including the
Company Restricted Stock Units, will be deemed to be outstanding and (ii) all shares of Yarrow Capital Stock underlying outstanding
options, warrants or other rights or commitments to receive shares of Yarrow Capital Stock will be deemed to be outstanding, except
as provided in the Merger Agreement. The Exchange Ratio, and related pro forma ownership, will be adjusted to the extent that
Company’s net cash at closing is less than $0, as further described in the Merger Agreement. In addition, prior to the closing
of the Merger, the Company expects to declare a cash dividend to the pre-Merger Company stockholders (the
“Pre-Closing Dividend”) which is expected to be approximately $14,500,000 to $16,500,000 in the aggregate.
In connection with the Merger,
the Company will seek the approval of its stockholders to, among other things, (a) issue shares
of Company Common Stock that represent more than twenty percent (20%) of the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time under the rules of Nasdaq (b) effect the change of control of the Company resulting from the Merger pursuant to
the rules of Nasdaq and (c) effect a reverse stock split of the Company Common Stock for the purposes of compliance with the minimum closing
bid price of $1.00 per share, as set forth in Nasdaq listing rule 5550(a)(2) ((a) through (c) collectively, the “Company Stockholder
Matters”).
Each of the Company and Yarrow
has agreed to customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants relating
to (1) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the requisite approval of its stockholders, (2) non-solicitation of alternative
acquisition proposals, (3) the conduct of their respective businesses during the period between the date of signing the Merger Agreement
and the closing of the Merger, (4) the Company using commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the existing listing of the Company Common
Stock on Nasdaq and cause the shares of Company Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger to be approved for listing on
Nasdaq prior to the closing of the Merger, and (5) the Company filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
and causing to become effective a registration statement to register the shares of Company Common Stock to be issued in connection with
the Merger (the “Registration Statement”).
The consummation of the Merger
is subject to certain closing conditions, including, among other things, (1) approval by Company stockholders of the Company Stockholder
Matters, (2) approval by the requisite Yarrow stockholders of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated
thereby, (3) Nasdaq’s approval of the listing application to be submitted in connection with the Merger and (4) the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement. Each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger is also subject to other specified customary conditions,
including regarding the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, subject to the applicable materiality standard,
and the performance in all material respects by the other party of its obligations under the Merger Agreement required to be performed
on or prior to the date of the closing of the Merger.
The Merger Agreement contains
certain termination rights of each of the Company and Yarrow. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances,
the Company may be required to pay Yarrow a termination fee of $1,000,000 and Yarrow may be required to pay the Company a termination
fee of $1,000,000.
The transaction has received
approval by the boards of directors of the parties and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to certain closing
conditions, including, among other things, approval by the stockholders of each company and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
At the Effective Time, the
Board is expected to consist of a number of members determined by Yarrow, all of whom will be designated by Yarrow, and the executive
officers of the Company will consist of officers determined by Yarrow.
Yarrow Series A Preferred Financing
In connection with the execution
and delivery of the Merger Agreement, certain institutional and accredited investors entered into a Series A stock purchase agreement,
pursuant to which such persons invested in a private placement of Yarrow’s Series A preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price
of approximately $100,000,000.
Pre-Closing Financing
Concurrently with the execution
and delivery of the Merger Agreement, certain institutional and accredited investors have also entered into a securities purchase agreement
(the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which such persons will agree to purchase, in the amounts set forth therein,
pre-closing shares of Yarrow Capital Stock and pre-funded warrants (the “PIPE Securities”) for an aggregate purchase price
of approximately $100,000,000 in a private placement (the “Pre-Closing Financing”). The closing of the Pre-Closing Financing
is conditioned on the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (in addition to other customary closing
conditions) and is expected to occur substantially concurrently with the closing of the Merger and prior to the Effective Time.
Pursuant to the terms of
the Securities Purchase Agreement, at closing of the Pre-Closing Financing, Yarrow will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (the
“Registration Rights Agreement”) with the purchasers of the PIPE Securities, which will provide for the registration and resale
of the Company Common Stock issuable in exchange for the PIPE Securities upon closing of the Merger and the shares of Company Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants following the Merger, in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.
Support Agreements and Lock-Up Agreement
Concurrently with the
execution of the Merger Agreement, (i) each of the directors and officers of the Company (solely in their respective capacities as
Company stockholders) holding approximately 3% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of December 16, 2025, have
entered into support agreements with the Company and Yarrow to vote all of their shares of Company Common Stock in favor of the
Company Stockholder Matters and against any alternative acquisition proposals (the “Company Support Agreement”) and (ii)
certain officers, directors and stockholders of Yarrow (solely in their respective capacities as Yarrow stockholders) holding
approximately 100% of the outstanding shares of Yarrow Capital Stock as of December 16, 2025 have entered into support agreements
with the Company and Yarrow to vote all of their shares of Yarrow Capital Stock in favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and against any alternative acquisition proposals (the “Yarrow Support
Agreement” and together with the Company Support Agreement, the “Support Agreements”).
Concurrently with the execution
of the Merger Agreement, certain executive officers and directors of the Company and Yarrow have entered into lock-up agreements (the
“Lock-Up Agreements”) pursuant to which, subject to specified exceptions, they have agreed not to transfer their shares of
Company Common Stock for the 180-day period following the closing of the Merger.
The preceding summaries of
the Merger Agreement, the Support Agreements, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Lock-Up Agreements
do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, the form of Yarrow Support Agreement,
the form of Company Support Agreement, the form of Securities Purchase Agreement, the form of Registration Rights Agreement and the form
of Lock-Up Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K
and which are incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement has been attached as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K
to provide investors and securityholders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information
about the Company or Yarrow or to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about the Company in its public reports filed with the
SEC. The Merger Agreement includes representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, Yarrow and Merger Sub made solely for the
purpose of the Merger Agreement and solely for the benefit of the parties thereto in connection with the negotiated terms of the Merger
Agreement. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement or any descriptions thereof
as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company, Yarrow, Merger Sub or any of their respective affiliates.
Moreover, certain of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, may be subject to
a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to SEC filings or may have been used for purposes of allocating
risk among the parties to the Merger Agreement, rather than establishing matters of fact.
