Move Aims to Ensure Continued Listing on Nasdaq

BOLINGBROOK, Ill., Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Hyzon HYZN (“Hyzon” or the “Company”), a U.S.-based high-performance hydrogen fuel cell system manufacturer and technology developer focused on providing zero-emission power to decarbonize the most demanding industries, today announced that its Board of Directors and stockholders approved a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which will be effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on September 11, 2024 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Hyzon’s Class A common stock will continue to be traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis beginning on September 11, 2024, under the Company’s existing trading symbol “HYZN.”

The Reverse Stock Split is intended to increase the bid price of the Company’s Class A common stock so that Hyzon can regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The new CUSIP number following the Reverse Stock Split will be 44951Y201. The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on September 6, 2024 to effect the Reverse Stock Split.

The Reverse Stock Split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in that stockholder owning a fractional share as described in more detail below.

The Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding from approximately 272.5 million to approximately 5.5 million. The total number of authorized shares of Class A common stock will also be reduced proportionally from 1,000,000,000 to 20,000,000. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. In lieu, thereof, each stockholder who would be entitled to receive a fractional share will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the product of the closing price on the day immediately prior to effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split and the amount of the fractional share.

The Reverse Stock Split will also result in proportional adjustments being made to all outstanding options, warrants, restricted stock units, performance stock units, or similar securities entitling their holders to receive or purchase shares of our Class A common stock.

The company’s publicly-traded warrants will continue to be traded under the symbol “HYZNW” and the CUSIP identifier for the warrants will remain unchanged.

Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company (“Continental”), the Company’s transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Continental will provide instructions to any stockholders with physical stock certificates regarding the process for exchanging their certificates for split-adjusted shares into “book-entry form.” Shares held by stockholders in “street name” will have their accounts automatically credited by their brokerage form, bank or other nominee, as will any stockholders who held their shares in book-entry form at Continental.
