EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 15, 2021 (as amended to date, the “Schedule 13D”) with respect the ordinary shares, nominal value £0.0005 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Exscientia plc, a corporation incorporated in England and Wales (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Merger

 

On November 20, 2024 (the “Effective Time”), Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Recursion”) acquired the entire issued and to be issued share capital of the Issuer (the “Transaction”) in accordance with the terms of Transaction Agreement, dated as of August 8, 2024, by and between the Recursion and the Issuer, as amended by the First Amendment to the Transaction Agreement (the “First Amendment”), dated as of November 5, 2024 (as amended, the “Transaction Agreement”) and a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the United Kingdom Companies Act 2006 (the “Scheme of Arrangement”), and the Issuer became a wholly owned subsidiary of Recursion.

 

Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement and the Scheme of Arrangement, at the Effective Time, each Ordinary Share of the Issuer outstanding as of the Effective Time (each a “Scheme Share”) was acquired by Recursion (or, at Recursion’s direction, by a nominee) from the holders of the Scheme Shares in exchange for 0.7729 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Recursion (the “Share Deliverable” and collectively the “Exchange Shares”). Holders of ADSs, including SVF II Excel (DE) LLC, were entitled to receive an amount of Exchange Shares equal to the Share Deliverable per ADS.

 

In connection with the completion of the Transaction, the ADSs, which previously traded under the symbol “EXAI,” ceased trading on Nasdaq and will be delisted from Nasdaq.

 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(a) – (b)

 

This Amendment No. 2 is being filed to report that, as of November 20, 2024, the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own any Ordinary Shares.

 

(c)During the past 60 days, none of the Reporting Persons or the Related Persons have effected any transactions in the Ordinary Shares, other than as described in Item 4 above.
  
(d) None.
   
(e)As of November 20, 2024, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the outstanding Ordinary Shares.
