(Nasdaq: PRZO) (the 'company' or 'ParaZero'), an aerospace company focused on safety systems for commercial unmanned aerial systems and counter UAS systems, announces its participation in recent live demonstrations and strategic engagements in the U.S. that underscore its commitment to advancing drone technologies used in the U.S., enhancing public safety, and supporting U.S. national security priorities. On June 4, 2025, ParaZero showcased its innovative DropAir emergency supply delivery system and SafeAir drone safety technology at the Constellis Security Conference in Virginia, USA. The event attracted key players from U.S. emergency response, military, and security organizations, as well as international representatives from countries including Germany and Mexico. ParaZero was one of only five companies selected to conduct live demonstrations, highlighting its leadership in the drone industry. The DropAir system, capable of delivering critical supplies, such as food, blankets, and medical equipment, captivated attendees, particularly those from emergency response and disaster relief sectors. Discussions focused on its potential to deliver aid to disaster-stricken areas inaccessible to traditional supply vehicles. ParaZero's live demonstrations were met with strong interest, reinforcing the system's role in addressing urgent needs during natural disasters, which impact millions annually in the U.S. The Company's counter UAS system, the DefendAir, also drew significant attention, particularly for its ability to enhance infrastructure protection, amid discussions referencing recent global security operations, such as Ukraine's actions in Russia. Participates expressed keen interest in the DefendAir's capabilities to counter aerial threats and invited ParaZero for a live demonstration in Israel in September 2025 during a European security delegation visit. ParaZero remains committed to collaborating with U.S. agencies, emergency responders, and military organizations to deliver innovative drone solutions. The company believes that there is significant potential in further demonstrations at U.S. emergency preparedness conferences and partnerships with global organizations to enhance the adoption of its systems worldwide.

BioNTech Announces Strategic Transaction to Acquire CureVac in Public Exchange Offer

Acquisition will strengthen the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of mRNA-based cancer immunotherapy candidates, marking BioNTech's next key milestone in the execution of its oncology strategy Acquisition of CureVac will complement BioNTech's capabilities and proprietary technologies in mRNA design, delivery formulations, and mRNA manufacturing Public exchange offer for all shares of CureVac where each share of CureVac will be exchanged for approx. $5.46 in BioNTech American Depositary Shares ('ADSs'), representing a premium of 55% to CureVac's three-month volume weighted average price of approx. $3.53 as of June 11, 2025 All-stock acquisition has potential to create long-term value for both companies' shareholders given their complementary capabilities, focus on mRNA innovation, and shared vision Transaction is supported by CureVac's major shareholder dievini Hopp BioTech holding GmbH & Co. KG and certain of its affiliates and expected to close in 2025 MAINZ and TÜBINGEN, Germany, June 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioNTech SE (Nasdaq: BNTX, 'BioNTech') and CureVac N.V. (Nasdaq: CVAC, 'CureVac') today announced that they have entered into a definitive Purchase Agreement pursuant to which BioNTech intends to acquire all of the shares of CureVac, a clinical-stage biotech company developing a novel class of transformative medicines in oncology and infectious diseases based on messenger ribonucleic acid ('mRNA'). The all-stock transaction will bring together two highly complementary companies based in Germany and will build on BioNTech's proven track record and established position in the global mRNA industry. With the acquisition, BioNTech aims to strengthen the research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization of investigational mRNA-based cancer immunotherapy. The strategic transaction will complement BioNTech's capabilities and proprietary technologies in mRNA design, delivery formulations, and mRNA manufacturing. For BioNTech, this transaction marks the next milestone in the execution of its oncology strategy which focuses on two pan-tumor programs, mRNA-based cancer immunotherapy candidates, and BNT327, a PD-L1xVEGF-A bispecific antibody candidate. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, each CureVac share will be exchanged for approx. $5.46 in BioNTech ADSs, resulting in an implied aggregate equity value for CureVac of approx. $1.25 billion (subject to the adjustments described below). The consideration is subject to a collar mechanism, such that if the 10-day volume weighted average price of the BioNTech ADSs ending on the fifth business day prior to the closing of the offer ('VWAP') exceeds $126.55, the exchange ratio would be 0.04318, and if the VWAP is lower than $84.37, the exchange ratio would be 0.06476. Upon closing of the transaction, CureVac shareholders are expected to own between 4% and 6% of BioNTech. 'This transaction is another building block in BioNTech's oncology strategy and an investment in the future of cancer medicine,' said Prof. Ugur Sahin, M.D., CEO and Co-Founder of BioNTech. 'We intend to bring together complementary capabilities and leverage technologies with the goal of advancing the development of innovative and transformative cancer treatments and establishing new standards of care for various types of cancer in the coming years.' 'To me, this transaction is more than a business decision, it represents a shared commitment to leverage the full potential of mRNA as a disruptive technology to develop transformative therapies with greater scale and speed,' said Dr. Alexander Zehnder, CEO of CureVac. 'For more than two decades, both companies have operated with related ambitions, often tackling challenges from different angles. This transaction aims at combining complementary scientific capabilities, proprietary technologies, and manufacturing expertise in the mRNA field under one roof.' BioNTech will start preparing an integration plan in alignment with BioNTech's ongoing group-wide transformation. Following the closing of the transaction, CureVac's operating subsidiary will become a wholly owned subsidiary of BioNTech. As part of this plan, BioNTech will integrate CureVac's state-of-the-art research and manufacturing site in Tübingen. BioNTech's all-stock acquisition of CureVac is expected to create long-term value for shareholders of both companies, building on BioNTech's proven track record in mRNA research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization, in particular the COVID-19 vaccine, which was developed in collaboration with Pfizer Inc. and marked the first approved mRNA product in the history of medicine. Based on BioNTech's strong financial position with €15.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and security investments as of March 31, 2025, its global presence, late-stage clinical pipeline, and sustained investment in mRNA research across a broad range of solid tumor types, the acquisition positions the company to accelerate and broaden the development of mRNA-based medicines for patients in need. Following the closing of the exchange offer BioNTech and CureVac will effectuate a corporate reorganization of CureVac and its subsidiaries, resulting in BioNTech owning 100% of CureVac's business and interests in CureVac and its subsidiaries. As part of this corporate reorganization, CureVac shareholders who do not tender their shares in the exchange offer will receive the same consideration received for each CureVac share tendered in the exchange offer (without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes). An extraordinary general meeting of CureVac's shareholders will be convened in connection with the exchange offer to adopt, among other things, certain resolutions relating to the transaction. The transaction was unanimously approved by both BioNTech's and CureVac's management and supervisory boards. The transaction, which is expected to close in 2025, is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including a minimum acceptance threshold of at least 80% of CureVac's shares (which threshold may be reduced to 75% unilaterally by BioNTech under certain circumstances) and required regulatory approvals. Certain shareholders of CureVac representing 36.76% of CureVac's shares, including dievini Hopp BioTech holding GmbH & Co. KG and certain of its affiliates and all members of CureVac's management and supervisory boards, have entered into tender and support agreements, pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions of such agreements, to tender their shares in the exchange offer and to vote in favor of the resolutions relating to the transaction at the CureVac extraordinary general meeting to be held in connection with the transaction. In addition, the German Federal government has confirmed to generally have a positive view on the transaction. BioNTech therefore assumes that Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau – which holds 13.32% of the shares in CureVac on behalf of the Federal Republic of Germany – will support the transaction by tendering its shares in CureVac. As a result, BioNTech expects to have contractual commitments to support the transaction from shareholders of CureVac representing a total of 50.08% of CureVac shares towards the 80% minimum condition required under the exchange offer.

Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and NautaDutilh N.V. served as legal counsel to CureVac. PJT Partners served as exclusive financial advisor to BioNTech.

Cerrado Gold Begins Underground Operations at Its Minera Don Nicolas Mine

Highlights: TORONTO, ONTARIO / ACCESS Newswire Cerrado Gold Inc. [TSX.V:CERT][OTCQX:CRDOF][FRA:BAI0] (' Cerrado ' or the ' Company ') is pleased to provide an update on the development of the Company's inaugural underground operation commencing underneath the high-grade Paloma pit at its Minera Don Nicolas Mine in Argentina ('MDN'). Earlier this week, the Company completed the initial blast to begin construction of the underground portal and progress the development of the underground mine over the coming months. The initial decline will be driven through the ore body and will provide nominal feed to the carbon in leach ('CIL') plant. Production from the underground is expected to ramp-up to reach steady state production by October this year. Additionally, the Company has now mobilized the initial drill rig to commence the previously announced 20,000 metre exploration drill program at MDN. The primary focus will be near surface, high-grade deposits that can provide feed to the CIL plant as well as expanding potential resources in and around the Las Calandrias heap leach project to add both high grade and heap leachable material. Underground drilling at Paloma will commence once the underground exploration platforms have been established. Mark Brennan, Executive Chairman, commented: 'The start of the underground operation is a key milestone for Cerrado's Argentinian operations; we now have the ability to produce from open pit, heap leach and underground operations. Not only will the underground operations contribute to production immediately, but it will also provide a platform for underground exploration, which remains completely open and largely unexplored at MDN.' Review of Technical Information The scientific and technical information in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Andrew Croal, Chief Technical Officer for Cerrado Gold, who is a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101. About Cerrado Cerrado Gold is a Toronto-based gold production, development, and exploration company. The Company is the 100% owner of the producing Minera Don Nicolás and Las Calandrias mine in Santa Cruz province, Argentina. In Portugal, the Company holds an 80% interest in the highly prospective Lagoa Salgada VMS project through its position in Redcorp – Empreendimentos Mineiros, Lda. In Canada, Cerrado Gold is developing its 100% owned Mont Sorcier Iron project located outside of Chibougamou, Quebec. In Argentina, Cerrado is maximizing asset value at its Minera Don Nicolas ('MDN') operation through continued operational optimization and is growing production through its operations at the Las Calandrias heap leach project. An extensive campaign of exploration is ongoing to further unlock potential resources in our highly prospective land package in the heart of the Deseado Masiff. In Portugal, Cerrado is focused on the development and exploration of the highly prospective Lagoa Salgada VMS project located on the prolific Iberian Pyrite Belt in Portugal. The Lagoa Salgada project is a high-grade polymetallic project, demonstrating a typical mineralization endowment of zinc, copper, lead, tin, silver, and gold. Extensive exploration upside potential lies both near deposit and at prospective step-out targets across the large 7,209-hectare property concession. Located just 80km from Lisbon and surrounded by exceptional infrastructure, Lagoa Salgada offers a low-cost entry to a significant development and exploration opportunity, already showing its mineable scale and cashflow generation potential. In Canada, Cerrado holds a 100% interest in the Mont Sorcier high purity high grade DRI Iron Ore project, which has the potential to produce a premium iron ore concentrate over a long mine life at low operating costs and low capital intensity. Furthermore, its high grade and high purity product facilitates the migration of steel producers from blast furnaces to electric arc furnaces, contributing to the decarbonization of the industry and the achievement of sustainable development goals.
