This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) is being filed by All Blue Falcons FZE, a company organized in the Ras Al Kaihamh Economic Zone of the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates (“All Blue Falcons”), and Daniel Edward Llewellen Cookson (“Mr. Cookson”) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) to amend the Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 22, 2022 (the “Original Statement” and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment, the “Statement”), relating to the common shares, no par value (the “Shares”), of Zymeworks Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the province of British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Original Statement.
ITEM 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION |
Item 4 of the Original Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
“On April 28, 2022, All Blue Falcons delivered to the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) a letter (the “Offer Letter”) outlining a non-binding proposal to acquire the Issuer for $10.50 per Share in cash (the “Proposal”). The Offer Letter indicates that the Proposal is subject to execution of a definitive transaction agreement and completion of a confirmatory due diligence review of the Issuer by All Blue Falcons. The Offer Letter states that All Blue Falcons seeks an opportunity to discuss the Proposal with the Board and is prepared to enter into an appropriate confidentiality agreement to commence confirmatory due diligence immediately.
In connection with the Proposal, All Blue Falcons has entered into discussions with potential co-investors and financing partners that have expressed interest in providing financing for the proposed acquisition. The Reporting Persons (and their affiliates) may, directly or indirectly, take such additional steps as they may deem appropriate from time to time in connection with the Proposal, including, without limitation, engaging in discussions with other shareholders, potential financing partners or sources of financing and other relevant parties, entering into confidentiality agreements, financing commitments and other agreements, arrangements and understandings in connection with the proposed transaction, and engaging financial, legal and other professional advisors.
The Proposal may result in one or more of the matters specified in clauses (a) – (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. There can be no assurances that any discussions among the Reporting Persons (or their affiliates) and the Board or other representatives of the Issuer or any other persons relating to the Proposal will take place or that any transaction will result from the Proposal or any such discussions. The Proposal is non-binding, and the Reporting Persons (or their affiliates) are under no obligation to engage in any discussions or consummate any transaction. The Reporting Persons may determine to change the terms of the Proposal, withdraw the Proposal or otherwise change their intentions with respect to the Issuer, in each case, at any time and without prior notice.
The foregoing summary of the Proposal is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Offer Letter, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.”
