Rafael Holdings, Inc. Provides Update to the
Description of Subscription Rights Related to its Public Warrants in Connection With its Previously Announced $25 Million Rights Offering
to Support Its Commitment to the Development and Potential Launch of Trappsol Cyclo
NEWARK, NJ- May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Rafael Holdings,
Inc. (NYSE: RFL; NYSE American: RFL-WT) today provided an update to the subscription rights related to its Public Warrants in connection
with its previously announced rights offering.
Under the rights offering, Rafael Holdings has distributed one (1)
non-transferable subscription right for each share of Class B common stock or Class A common stock, or for each share of Class B common
stock issuable upon exercise of the outstanding warrants, initially issued on May 11, 2020 by Cyclo Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Public
Warrants"), in each case, held as of May 9, 2025, the record date for the rights offering.
Each subscription right will entitle the Holder of a share of Class
A common stock or Class B common stock to purchase 0.603 of a share of Class B common stock at a subscription price of $1.28 per share.
Each Holder of a Public Warrant received 0.3525 of a subscription right
(corresponding to the ratio between Public Warrants and the portion of a share of Class B common stock for which each is exercisable).
Accordingly, a holder of three (3) Public Warrants received a full subscription right. Each full subscription right entitles the Holder
to purchase 0.603 of a share of Class B common stock at a subscription price of $1.28 per share.
Subscription rights may only be exercised in whole numbers, and fractional
shares will not be issued. The number of shares that may be purchased by each holder of subscription rights will be rounded down to the
nearest whole number.
All terms of the rights offering remain unchanged.
Howard Jonas, the Company's Executive Chairman and Chairman of
the Board will enter into a Standby Purchase Agreement with the Company pursuant to which he will purchase from the Company, in a private
placement, any shares of Class B common stock not subscribed for in the proposed rights offering for the same subscription price payable
by holders electing to exercise the subscription rights in the proposed rights offering.
The rights offering will be subject to certain conditions, and Rafael
Holdings reserves the right to terminate the rights offering at any time prior to its expiration date.
The subscription rights are non-transferable and may only be exercised
during the subscription period, which commenced on May 13, 2025, and expires 5:00 PM ET on May 29, 2025, unless extended or terminated
earlier by Rafael Holdings.
