On
October 24, 2022, Altamira Therapeutics Ltd. (the “Company”) announced that it will effect a 1-for-20 reverse share split
of its common shares. The Company anticipates that the reverse share split will be effective upon commencement of trading on the Nasdaq
Capital Market on October 25, 2022.
The
reverse share split was previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors in accordance with Bermuda law. The reverse share
split will consolidate every 20 common shares into one common share, par value CHF 0.20 per share. As a result of the reverse share split,
the number of common shares outstanding will be reduced from approximately 21.5 million to approximately 1.1 million common shares, subject
to rounding down of all fractional shares to the nearest whole share and the payment to shareholders of cash in lieu of such fractional
shares. Shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of common shares not evenly
divisible by the 1-for-20 ratio will be entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the closing
price of our common shares on the business day immediately preceding the effective date of the reverse share split as reported on the
Nasdaq Capital Market by (ii) the number of common shares held by the shareholder that would otherwise have been exchanged for the fractional
share interest. No interest will be paid on any cash amount representing fractional shares between the effective date of the reverse
share split and the date of payment. In respect to the underlying common shares associated with any derivative securities, such as warrants
and options, the conversion and exercise prices and number of common shares issuable generally will be adjusted in accordance with the
1:20 ratio. The number of authorized common shares will be reduced to 5,000,000 common shares, par value CHF 0.20 per share. The number
of authorized preference shares of the Company will remain at 20,000,000 shares, and the par value thereof will remain CHF 0.02 per share.
No preference shares of the Company are currently issued and outstanding.
The
Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”), will also act as exchange agent
for the reverse share split. The Company understands from AST that all shareholders on AST’s records are book entry holders. As
such, book entry shareholders will not need to take any action in the reverse share split process. After the reverse share split takes
effect, shareholders that currently hold common shares in book entry form will receive updated statements of holding reflecting their
holdings referencing the reverse share split.
The
Company intends to treat shareholders holding common shares in “street name” (that is, held through a bank, broker or other
nominee) in the same manner as shareholders of record whose common shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers or other nominees
will be instructed to effect the reverse stock split for their beneficial holders holding our common shares in “street name;”
however, these banks, brokers or other nominees may apply their own specific procedures for processing the reverse stock split.
The
Company’s common shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis when the market opens on October 25, 2022. The Company’s
common shares will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CYTO” and under a new CUSIP number, G0360L209.
