I'm in TKAI on this announcement. Current TKAI shareholders will own 40% of the new company. Already approved merger by boards. This should run.

Under the terms of the agreement, the shareholders of Otic Pharma will receive a total of 32,172,209 shares of newly issued Tokai common stock, while outstanding Otic Pharma options and convertible securities will be assumed by Tokai. Upon the exchange, it is expected that existing Tokai stockholders will own approximately 40% of the combined company, with existing Otic Pharma shareholders owning approximately 60%. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies and shareholders of Otic Pharma. Tokai's largest stockholder, Apple Tree Partners, who holds approximately 35% of Tokai's common stock has entered into an agreement in support of the proposed transaction. The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2017, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by shareholders of Tokai.
