Common Stock outstanding as of August 5, 2024 as set forth in the Issuer’s 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 7, 2024, minus

See Item 4.
This amendment (this “Amendment No. 4”) further amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed on September 24, 2021 (the “Original
Filing”) by Boxer Capital, LLC (“Boxer Capital”), Boxer Asset Management Inc. (“Boxer Management”), MVA Investors, LLC (“MVA Investors”), Mr. Davis and Joe Lewis with respect to the Common Stock, par value $0.0001
(the “Common Stock”) of Tyra Biosciences, Inc. (the “Issuer”), as previously amended on June 16, 2022 (“Amendment No. 1”), February 8, 2024 (“Amendment No. 2”) and October 15, 2024 (“Amendment No. 3”).
Amendment No. 1 was an original filing for Dr. Subramony. Each of Joe Lewis, Boxer Management and Boxer Capital has previously reported that it is no longer a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings defined in the Original Filing, as previously amended. The Original Filing, as previously amended, is further amended hereby only as specifically set forth
herein, provided that with respect to any Item amended herein, if such Item is incorporated by reference into any other Item in the Original Filing, as previously amended, such incorporation by reference is also amended hereby.
|
Item 2.
|
Identity and Background.
|
Item 2 is hereby amended to correct that Mr. Davis is Managing Member of BCM and that Dr. Subramony is a Managing Director of BCM.
|
Item 3.
|
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
|
Item 3 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:
The disclosure set forth below in Item 4 is hereby incorporated herein.
|
Item 4.
|
Purpose of Transaction.
|
Item 4 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:
On October 18, 2024, BCM caused Boxer Capital to enter into a 3(a)(9) exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with the Issuer and other holders of Common Stock (“Holders”), pursuant to which
BCM caused Boxer Capital to agree to exchange 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for pre-funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) (the “Exchange”). Subject to the
Conversion Limit described below, the Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock and will not expire. The Exchange closed on October 22, 2024.
BCM caused Boxer Capital to acquire the Pre-Funded Warrants subject to the condition that it will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant, which, upon giving effect to such exercise,
would cause it (together with other persons whose beneficial ownership is aggregated for purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including BCM) to own more than 9.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the “Conversion Limit”). However, BCM may cause Boxer Capital to increase or decrease the Conversion Limit to any other percentage not in excess
of 19.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days after notice thereof is delivered to the Issuer.
The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants will be subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions,
stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock. In the event of certain fundamental transactions (as described in the Pre-Funded Warrants), a holder of Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled
to receive, upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the kind and amount of securities, cash or property that such holder would have received had they exercised in full the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental
transaction without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Pre-Funded Warrants. The Exchange Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Issuer and the Holders.
The Issuer filed a Form 8-K with the SEC on October 18, 2024 (the “Issuer Exchange 8-K”), further describing the Exchange Agreement, the Exchange and the Pre-Funded Warrants. The descriptions of the
Exchange Agreement, the Exchange and the Pre-Funded Warrants set forth herein do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Pre-Funded Warrants, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to
the Issuer Exchange 8-K, and the Exchange Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to this Amendment No. 4.
|
Item 5.
|
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
|
Items 5(a) and (b) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) (b) For information regarding beneficial ownership, see the information presented on the cover pages.

(c) The disclosure set forth above in Item 4 above is hereby incorporated herein.
|

|
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
|
Item 6 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:

Commission promulgated thereunder) for soliciting the Exchange. Assuming the representations and warranties of the Stockholders contained herein are true and complete, the Exchange will qualify for the registration exemption contained in
Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.
|
|
(b)
|
It has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and
to consummate the Exchange and such transactions shall not contravene any contractual, regulatory, statutory or other obligation or restriction applicable to the Company.
|
|
(c)
|
It has reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock as may be necessary to
fully permit the exercise of the Warrants and the issuance of the Warrant Shares, without regard to any beneficial ownership limits set forth in the Warrant.
|

|
(a)
|
It has the requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Exchange.
|
|
(b)
|
It is the record and beneficial owner of, and has valid and
marketable title to, the Shares being exchanged by it pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of any lien, pledge, restriction or other encumbrance (other than restrictions arising pursuant to applicable securities laws), and has the
absolute and unrestricted right, power and
|
capacity to surrender and exchange the Shares being exchanged by it pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of any lien, pledge, restriction or other
encumbrance. It is not a party to or bound by, and the Shares being exchanged by it pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to, any agreement, understanding or other arrangement (i) granting any option, warrant or right of first refusal with
respect to such Shares to any person, (ii) restricting its right to surrender and exchange such Shares as contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) restricting any other of its rights with respect to such Shares.

benefit of any of the forgoing, has paid or given, or agreed to pay or give, directly or indirectly, any commission or other remuneration (within the meaning of Section 3(a)(9) and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated
thereunder) for soliciting the Exchange.
|
|
(d)
|
It understands and accepts that the Warrants to be acquired in the Exchange involve
risks. It acknowledges that no person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation concerning the Company, the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, or the Exchange other than as contained in this Agreement.
The Company takes no responsibility for, and provides no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may provide to any Stockholder.
|
(4) This
Agreement, and any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, shall be exclusively governed by the laws of the State of New York.
(5) In the event
that any part of this Agreement is declared by any court or other judicial or administrative body to be null, void or unenforceable, said provision shall survive to the extent it is not so declared, and all of the other provisions of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect. In such an event, the Stockholders and the Company shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to modify this Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible.
(6) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument, and shall
become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties.
