Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
On May 24, 2024, TriSalus Life Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), announced the commencement of (i) its offer (the “Offer”) to all holders of each class of certain outstanding warrants (the “Warrants”), consisting of (a) the Company’s publicly-traded Warrants (the “Public Warrants”), (b) certain Warrants issued in a private placement transaction occurring simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering of the Company (the “Private Placement Warrants”) and (c) certain Warrants issued for working capital requirements and payment of certain expenses of the Company (“Working Capital Warrants”), each identified in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange (as defined below), the opportunity to receive 0.3 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 pers share (“Common Stock”), in exchange for each Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the Offer, and (ii) the solicitation of consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of the Warrants to amend the Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2020 (the “Warrant Agreement” and such amendment, the “Warrant Amendment”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, which governs all of the Warrants. Pursuant to the Offer, the Company is offering up to an aggregate of 4,264,532 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for the Warrants.
If approved, the Warrant Amendment will permit the Company to require that all of the Exchange Warrants (as defined below) that are outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be exchanged, at the Company’s option (including the Company’s option to exchange all of the Exchange Warrants of one or more classes of Warrants without being obligated to exchange all of the Exchange Warrants of any other class of Warrants) into shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 0.27 shares of Common Stock per such Warrant, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, certain amendments, including the Warrant Amendment, require the vote or written consent of holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding (i) Public Warrants (such threshold, the “Public Warrant Consent Threshold”), (ii) Private Placement Warrants with respect to modifications or amendments that apply to the Private Placement Warrants (such threshold, the “Private Placement Warrant Consent Threshold”) or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the Private Placement Warrants, including the Warrant Amendment, and (iii) Working Capital Warrants with respect to modifications or amendments that apply to the Working Capital Warrants (such threshold, the “Working Capital Warrant Consent Threshold,” and together with the Public Warrant Consent Threshold and the Private Placement Warrant Consent Threshold, as applicable, the “Consent Threshold”) or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the Working Capital Warrants, including the Warrant Amendment. As a result, in order to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the (i) Public Warrants, consent of a majority of the Public Warrants is required and (ii) Private Placement Warrants or Working Capital Warrants, consent of a majority of the Public Warrants is required, in addition to consent of a majority of the Private Placement Warrants or Working Capital Warrants, depending on the class amended. As used herein, “Exchange Warrants” means the (i) Public Warrants if the Public Warrant Consent Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation, (ii) Private Placement Warrants if the Private Placement Warrant Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation and/or (iii) Working Capital Warrants if the Working Capital Warrant Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation, which means, in such cases, the Warrant Amendment will be adopted with respect to the class or classes of Warrants for which an applicable Consent Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation.
Parties representing approximately 34.8% of the Public Warrants, 0% of the Private Placement Warrants and 0% of the Working Capital Warrants have agreed to tender their Warrants in the Offer and to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation pursuant to tender and support agreements (each, a “Tender and Support Agreement”). Accordingly, if holders of an additional approximately 15.3% of the outstanding Public Warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, and the other conditions described in the Prospectus Offer to Exchange are satisfied or waived, then the Warrant Amendment will be adopted with respect to the Public Warrants. Similarly, (i) if holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Private Placement Warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, and the other conditions described in the Prospectus Offer to Exchange are satisfied or waived (including receipt of consent from holders of at least a majority of Public Warrants), then the Warrant Amendment will be adopted with respect to the Private Placement Warrants and (ii) if holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Working Capital Warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, and the other conditions described in the Prospectus Offer to Exchange are satisfied or waived (including receipt of consent from holders of at least a majority of Public Warrants), then the Warrant Amendment will be adopted with respect to the Working Capital Warrants. Holders of 19.4% of the Public Warrants that have entered into Tender and Support Agreements have reserved the right to exercise their Public Warrants during the Offer period. Any Warrants exercised prior to the expiration of the Offer period will reduce the Warrants outstanding and will be omitted from the calculation of those Warrants that have consented to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation.
The Offer and Consent Solicitation are made solely upon the terms and conditions in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and other related offering materials that are being distributed to the holders of the Warrants. The Offer and Consent Solicitation will expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on June 25, 2024, or such later time and date to which the Company may extend (the “Expiration Date”), as described in the Company’s Schedule TO (as defined below) and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. Tendered Warrants may be withdrawn by holders at any time prior to the Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.
On May 24, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the commencement of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

TriSalus Life Sciences Announces
Commencement of Exchange Offer and
Consent Solicitation Relating to Warrants
DENVER -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- May 24, 2024 -- TriSalus Life Sciences® Inc. (“TriSalus” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TLSI), an oncology company integrating its novel delivery technology with immunotherapy to transform treatment for patients with liver and pancreatic tumors, announced today that it has commenced an exchange offer (the “Offer”) and consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”) relating to its warrants (the “Warrants”) identified in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange (as defined below). The purpose of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is to simplify the Company’s capital structure and reduce the potential dilutive impact of the Warrants, thereby providing the Company with more flexibility for financing its operations in the future.
The Company is offering to all holders of each class of its Warrants, consisting of (i) its publicly-traded Warrants (the “Public Warrants”), (ii) certain Warrants issued in a private placement transaction occurring simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering of the Company (the “Private Placement Warrants”) and (iii) certain Warrants issued for working capital requirements and payment of certain expenses of the Company (“Working Capital Warrants”), the opportunity to receive 0.30 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), in exchange for each Warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the Offer. Pursuant to the Offer, the Company is offering up to an aggregate of 4,264,532 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for the Warrants.
Concurrently with the Offer, the Company is also soliciting consents from holders of the Warrants to amend the warrant agreement that governs all of the Warrants (the “Warrant Agreement”) to permit the Company to require that all of the Exchange Warrants (as defined below) that are outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be exchanged, at the Company’s option (including the Company’s option to exchange all of the Exchange Warrants of one or more classes of Warrants without being obligated to exchange all of the Exchange Warrants of any other class of Warrants) into shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 0.27 shares of Common Stock per such Warrant, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer (such amendment, the “Warrant Amendment”). Parties representing approximately 34.8% of the Public Warrants have agreed to tender their Public Warrants in the Offer and to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation pursuant to tender and support agreements (each, a “Tender and Support Agreement”). Accordingly, if holders of an additional approximately 15.3% of the outstanding Public Warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, and the other conditions described in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange are satisfied or waived, then the Warrant Amendment will be adopted with respect to the Public Warrants. Although the Company has not received Tender and Support Agreements with respect to the Private Placement Warrants and Working Capital Warrants, assuming the Public Warrant Consent Threshold (as defined below) is met, the Warrant Amendment may be adopted with respect to either the Private Placement Warrants or the Working Capital Warrants if the Private Placement Warrant Consent Threshold or Working Capital Warrant Consent Threshold (each as defined below) is met, as applicable.
Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, certain amendments, including the Warrant Amendment, require the vote or written consent of holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding (i) Public Warrants (such threshold, the “Public Warrant Consent Threshold”), (ii) Private Placement Warrants with respect to modifications or amendments that apply to the Private Placement Warrants (such threshold, the “Private Placement Warrant Consent Threshold”) or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the Private Placement Warrants, including the Warrant Amendment, and (iii) Working Capital Warrants with respect to modifications or amendments that apply to the Working Capital Warrants (such threshold, the “Working Capital Warrant Consent Threshold,” and together with the Public Warrant Consent Threshold and the Private Placement Warrant Consent Threshold, as applicable, the “Consent Threshold”) or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the Working Capital Warrants, including the Warrant Amendment. As a result, in order to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the (i) Public Warrants, consent of a majority of the Public Warrants is required and (ii) Private Placement Warrants or Working Capital Warrants, consent of a majority of the Public Warrants is required, in addition to consent of a majority of the Private Placement Warrants or Working Capital Warrants, depending on the class amended. As used herein, “Exchange Warrants” means the (i) Public Warrants if the Public Warrant Consent Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation, (ii) Private Placement Warrants if the Private Placement Warrant Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation, and/or (iii) Working Capital Warrants if the Working Capital Warrant Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation, which means, in such cases, the Warrant Amendment will be adopted with respect to the class or classes of Warrants for which an applicable Consent Threshold is obtained in the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

About TriSalus Life Sciences
TriSalus Life Sciences® is an oncology focused medical technology business providing disruptive drug delivery technology with the goal of improving therapeutics delivery to liver and pancreatic tumors.
The Company’s platform includes devices that utilize a proprietary drug delivery technology and a clinical stage investigational immunotherapy. The Company’s two FDA-cleared devices use its proprietary Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery™ (PEDD™) approach to deliver a range of therapeutics: the TriNav® Infusion System for hepatic arterial infusion of liver tumors and the Pancreatic Retrograde Venous Infusion System for pancreatic tumors. PEDD is a novel delivery approach designed to address the anatomic limitations of arterial infusion for the pancreas. The PEDD approach modulates pressure and flow in a manner that delivers more therapeutic to the tumor and is designed to reduce undesired delivery to normal tissue, bringing the potential to improve patient outcomes. Nelitolimod, the Company’s investigational immunotherapeutic candidate, is designed to improve patient outcomes by treating the immunosuppressive environment created by many tumors and which can make current immunotherapies ineffective in the liver and pancreas. Patient data generated during Pressure-Enabled Regional Immuno-Oncology™ (PERIO) clinical trials support the hypothesis that nelitolimod delivered via PEDD may have favorable immune effects within the liver and systemically. The target for nelitolimod, TLR9, is expressed across cancer types and the mechanical barriers addressed by PEDD are commonly present as well. Nelitolimod delivered by PEDD will be studied across several indications in an effort to address immune dysfunction and overcome drug delivery barriers in the liver and pancreas.
