EXPLANATORYNOTE
This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Clene Inc. on January 5, 2021 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The sole purpose of this amendment is to amend and replace in its entirety the section headed “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” under Item 2.01 in the Original Form 8-K. This Form 8-K/A does not otherwise change or update the disclosure set forth in the Original Form 8-K and does not otherwise reflect events after the Original Form 8-K was filed.
| Item 2.01 | Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
|---|
SecurityOwnership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of Common Stock following completion of the Business Combination by:
| ● | each<br> person known to the Company who is the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of Company shares; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> Company’s executive officers and directors; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | all<br> of the Company’s executive officers and directors as a group. |
| --- | --- |
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. Accordingly, all Common Stock subject to options or warrants that are exercisable within 60 days of the consummation of the Business Combination are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the holders of such options or warrants for the purpose of calculating the holder’s beneficial ownership. They are not, however, deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, the Company believes, based on the information furnished to it, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all stock that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws.
The percentage ownership of the Company immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination is based on 59,526,163 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding upon consummation of the Business Combination, which includes (i) the issuance of the 53,247,318 shares of Common Stock in the Acquisition Merger, (ii) 2,716,950 shares of Common Stock that are subject to escrow, as described in the Merger Agreement; (iii) the issuance of 1,322,395 shares of Company Common Stock to the Tottenham shareholders in connection with the Reincorporation Merger (after redemptions); and (iv) 2,239,500 PIPE Shares that were issued at the closing of the Business Combination.
