Deals and Funding

  • Phoenix Biotech (NASDAQ:PBAX) has amended its combination with CERo Therapeutics to boost its earnout agreement from containing up to 2,400,000 shares to 3,075,000. Of these, 875,000 will now vest immediately at close and Phoenix Biotech’s sponsor will forfeit an equal number of promote shares. Another 500,000 earnout shares will disperse at each of the deal’s two existing share price targets. One million will go out if the CERo submits an IND application to the FDA and 200,000 will if a change of control occurs.
