LONDON, Dec. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Tetragon and its subsidiary Tetragon
Financial Group Master Fund Limited announce the final results of the "modified
Dutch auction" tender offer to purchase a portion of the outstanding non-voting
shares of Tetragon for a maximum aggregate payment of $65,000,000 in cash. The
tender offer expired at 11:59 p.m. (EST) on 7 December 2017.
Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch acted as dealer manager for the tender offer
and Computershare Investor Services PLC acted as tender agent for the tender
offer. As dealer manager, Deutsche Bank determined the final purchase price at
which the Tetragon Master Fund will purchase shares in the tender offer and the
final proration factor.

accepted for purchase 4,779,411 Tetragon non-voting shares at a purchase price
of $13.60 per share. The aggregate cost of this purchase is $64,999,989.60,
excluding fees and expenses relating to the tender offer. A total of 5,116,818
Tetragon non-voting shares were properly tendered and not withdrawn at or below
the purchase price of $13.60 per share. Because more than $65,000,000 in value
of Tetragon non-voting shares was properly tendered and not properly withdrawn,
the tender offer was subject to proration pursuant to the terms of the tender
offer, with appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases of fractional shares.
The final proration factor for the tender offer is 93.41%, rounded to the
second decimal place.1
The Tetragon Master Fund will promptly make payment for the shares validly
tendered and accepted for purchase, which is expected to occur on or about 14

be promptly returned to the tendering shareholders.
