Revisions to the Proxy Statement dated December 15, 2015 of
Discovery Laboratories, Inc. (the Company) for the
Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held January 21, 2016
It recently has come to our attention that certain information appearing in the table on page 5 of the Proxy Statement filed on December 15, 2015 was incorrect. The table includes examples of approximate information, as of November 30, 2015, relating to the impact of Proposals 1 and 2 on our Common Stock based on certain of the Exchange Ratios available for selection by our Board, without giving effect to any adjustment for fractional shares of Common Stock.
In the print version only, the first column of the table was formatted incorrectly, causing the exchange ratios to not be visible. In addition, in both the print and filed versions of the Proxy Statement, five of the six values appearing in the column entitled Number of Shares of Common Stock Authorized and Available for Issuance were incorrect. The following table is a corrected version of the table appearing on page 5 of the Proxy Statement, with the correct numbers inserted and the errors marked:
