PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To prospectus dated October 9, 2020)
1,034,483 Units, Each Consisting of Four American Depositary Shares Representing Four Ordinary Shares and Three Warrants, Each to Purchase One Ordinary Share
$29.00 per Unit
We are offering 1,034,483 Units, with each Unit consisting of four American Depositary Share, or ADSs, and three warrants, each to purchase one ordinary share, €0.10 nominal value, to certain institutional investors at a price of $29.00 (€24.03) per Unit, corresponding to $7.25 (€6.01) per ADS and associated 0.75 warrant, pursuant to this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus. Each ADS represents the right to receive one ordinary share. See “Description of American Depositary Shares” and “Description of Ordinary Shares” in the accompanying prospectus for more information.
Each warrant included in the Units will have an exercise price of €7.50 ($9.05) per ordinary share into which such warrant is exercisable, will be immediately exercisable upon issuance and will expire on the second anniversary of the date of issuance. This prospectus supplement also relates to the offering of the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of such warrants. The Units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities, and the ADSs and warrants comprising such Units will be immediately separable and issued separately in this offering.
Our ADSs are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “ERYP.” On April 28, 2021, the last reported sale price of the ADSs on Nasdaq was $7.20 per ADS. Our ordinary shares are traded on Euronext Paris under the symbol “ERYP.” On April 28, 2021, the last reported sale price of our ordinary shares on Euronext Paris was €6.11 per share, equivalent to a price of $7.37 per ADS, assuming an exchange rate of $1.207 per euro. There is no established public trading market for the warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to list the warrants on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, Euronext Paris or any other national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the warrants will be limited.
We are an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. See “Prospectus Supplement Summary—Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Foreign Private Issuer” for additional information.
