LIII Leo Holdings III Corp

On June 4, 2023, the Board of Directors of Local Bounti Corporation (the “Company”) approved a 1-for-13 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), anticipated to be effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time, June 15, 2023 (the “Effective Time”).

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 13 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding will be automatically reclassified into one new share of the Company’s Common Stock. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the exercise prices and the number of shares underlying the Company’s outstanding equity awards, as applicable, and warrants exercisable for shares of Common Stock, as well as to the number of shares issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans and certain existing agreements. Accordingly, for the Company’s warrants trading under the symbol “LOCL WS”, every 13 warrants will be exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $149.50 per share of common stock. The Common Stock issued pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split will remain fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Stock Split will not affect the number of authorized shares of Common Stock or the par value of the Common Stock.

The Reverse Stock Split was approved by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders held on April 26, 2023. On June 4, 2023 the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Reverse Stock Split at the ratio of 1-for-13.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be entitled to a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price equal to the fraction to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing sales price per share of the Common Stock (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split) on the NYSE on June 14, 2023, the last trading day immediately preceding the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock Split.

The shares are expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis at the commencement of trading on June 15, 2023. Trading in the Common Stock will continue on the NYSE under the symbol “LOCL” but the new CUSIP number for the Company’s Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 53960E 205. The Company’s warrants will continue to be traded under the symbol “LOCL WS” and the CUSIP number for the Company’s warrants will remain unchanged.

Stockholders of record will be receiving information from Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, regarding their stock ownership following the Reverse Stock Split and cash in lieu of fractional share payments, if applicable. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or in “street name” are not required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
