LIII Leo Holdings III Corp

On June 14, 2023, Local Bounti Corporation (the “Company”) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-13 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”). The Reverse Stock Split became effective as of 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time on June 15, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). As previously disclosed, at a special meeting of stockholders held on April 26, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, to effect a reverse stock split of all of the outstanding Common Stock and any Common Stock held by the Company as treasury shares, at any time prior to June 30, 2024, at a ratio of 1-for-2 to 1-for-25, as determined by the Board in its discretion. On June 4, 2023, the Board approved the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-13.

Trading of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is expected to commence on a split-adjusted basis on June 15, 2023 under the existing trading symbol “LOCL.” The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split is 53960E 205. The Company’s publicly traded warrants will continue to be traded under the Symbol “LOCL WS” and the CUSIP number for the Company’s warrants will remain unchanged.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 13 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding were automatically reclassified into one new share of Common Stock, subject to the treatment of fractional shares as described below, without any action on the part of the holders. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the exercise prices and the number of shares underlying the Company’s outstanding equity awards, as applicable, and warrants exercisable for shares of Common Stock, as well as to the number of shares issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans and certain existing agreements. Accordingly, for the Company’s publicly traded warrants trading under the symbol “LOCL WS,” every 13 warrants will be exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $149.50 per share of Common Stock. The Common Stock issued pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split will remain fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Stock Split will not affect the number of authorized shares of Common Stock or the par value of the Common Stock.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be entitled to a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price equal to the fraction to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing sales price per share of the Common Stock (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split) on the NYSE on June 14, 2023, the last trading day immediately preceding the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock Split.

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
