Amprius Announces Temporary Offer Allowing Public and Private Warrants to be Exercised at a Reduced Price

FREMONT, Calif. — May 13, 2024 — Amprius Technologies, Inc. (“Amprius” or the “Company”) (NYSE: AMPX), a leader in next-generation lithium-ion batteries with its Silicon Anode Platform, today announced a temporary offer allowing its public and private warrants to be exercised for cash at a reduced price.

The offer applies to holders of the Company’s outstanding public warrants to purchase up to 29,268,236 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and private warrants to purchase up to 16,400,000 shares of Common Stock (together with the public warrants, the “Offering Warrants”). Holders of the Offering Warrants, exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per Offering Warrant, will have the opportunity to exercise their Offering Warrants at a temporarily reduced cash exercise price of $1.10 per Offering Warrant.

The offer is contingent upon the terms set forth in the Offer to Exercise Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of Amprius Technologies, Inc., dated May 13, 2024 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Exercise”), filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Schedule TO filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Comission (the “SEC”).

The Company’s outstanding private placement warrants (the “PIPE Warrants”), which are exercisable at a price of $12.50 per PIPE Warrant, are not eligible to be exercised at the reduced exercise price.

To participate in the Offer to Exercise and exercise the Offering Warrants at the reduced cash exercise price, holders will be required to tender their Offering Warrants prior to the expiration of the Offer to Exercise at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 11, 2024, which may be extended by Amprius in its sole discretion.

The purpose of the Offer to Exercise is to encourage the cash exercise of the Offering Warrants by temporarily reducing the exercise price. Net proceeds received from any such exercises will provide funds to Amprius for working capital, including to partially fund the Company’s development plans, and general corporate purposes. If all of the outstanding Offering Warrants subject to the Offer to Exercise are exercised at this temporarily reduced cash exercise price, Amprius would receive gross proceeds of approximately $50 million from such exercises.
