On December 23, 2024 US time, Bionomics Limited, an Australian corporation (“Bionomics”), completed its scheme of arrangement (“Scheme”) with Neuphoria Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Neuphoria”), under Australian law.

 

Pursuant to the Scheme:

 

●

holders of ordinary shares of Bionomics received one share of common stock in Neuphoria for every 2,160 ordinary shares of Bionomics held on the Scheme record date; and

 

●

holders of American Depositary Shares, with each ADS representing 180 ordinary shares of Bionomics, received one share of common stock of Neuphoria for every 12 ADSs held on the Scheme Record Date.

 

The Scheme constituted a succession for purposes of Rule 12g-3(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). 

 

In connection with such succession, the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) has replaced Bionomics’ listing of ADSs with a listing of the shares of common stock of Neuphoria.
