Revolution Medicines, Inc. (NasdaqGS:RVMD) entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire EQRx, Inc. (NasdaqGM:EQRX) from a group of shareholders for approximately $930 million on June 2, 2023. Revolution Medicines, Inc. entered into a definitive agreement to acquire EQRx, Inc. from a group of shareholders for approximately $930 million on July 31, 2023. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Revolution Medicines will acquire EQRx in an all-stock transaction. The aggregate merger consideration will consist of a number of shares of Revolution Medicines common stock consisting of 7,692,308 shares of Revolution Medicines common stock plus an additional number of shares of Revolution Medicines common stock, which will be determined prior to the EQRx special meeting and will represent $870.0 million of the aggregate purchase price divided by the pre-EQRx special meeting VWAP, applying a six percent discount, which is currently estimated as 27,472,007 additional shares. At the effective time, each in-the-money EQRx option and EQRx RSU will be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive a number of shares of Revolution Medicines common stock. Each EQRx warrant, will, in accordance with its terms, automatically cease to represent a warrant exercisable for EQRx common stock and will become a warrant exercisable for the merger consideration that the holder of such EQRx warrant would have received if such EQRx warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the effective time. As of October 31, 2023, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the First Merger, each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of EQRx (?EQRx Common Stock?) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will be converted into the right to receive 0.1112 of a share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Revolution Medicines (?Revolution Medicines Common Stock?). If the transaction is completed, Revolution Medicines expects to issue approximately 55 million shares of its common stock in connection with the merger (excluding assumed warrants and earn-out shares). No fractional shares of Revolution Medicines Common Stock will be issued in the Mergers, and EQRx stockholders will receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares as part of the merger consideration, as specified in the Merger Agreement. The final exchange ratio based on the actual determination date of October 31, 2023, is higher than the assumed exchange ratio of 0.0734 that was set out for illustrative purposes in the joint proxy statement/prospectus, dated September 29, 2023. If the merger agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances, either Revolution Medicines or EQRx may be required to pay or cause to be paid to the other party a termination fee of $25.0 million (in the case of a termination fee payable by EQRx) or $65.0 million (in the case of a termination fee payable by Revolution Medicines). In addition, if the merger agreement is terminated due to either party?s failure to obtain the applicable requisite stockholder approval under circumstances in which a termination fee is not payable, the party that failed to obtain the applicable requisite stockholder approval may be required to pay the other party expense reimbursement fees of up to $10.0 million. At the close of the transaction, one EQRx director will be designated by Revolution Medicines to serve on its board of directors. Upon completion of the transaction, EQRx shares will cease trading on the Nasdaq Global Market.
