Yee is a community based memecoin with one mission: to fight Pepe again. Made to honor the iconic meme rivalry we all know and love.  The Yee Legend  [Filed by: Yee’s Archivist & Legal Representative]  There’s something the meme world refuses to talk about: Pepe the Frog stole Yee the Dino’s entire launch plan.  Yee had been preparing for his comeback for months, but Pepe launched two weeks earlier, hijacking Yee’s concept and selling it as his own.  The charges? Meme theft, intellectual forgery, and historical erasure.  Yee’s official contract was filed in April 2023, right after Pepe’s surprise drop. This wasn’t timing—it was theft. The archives are about to open, and history is about to be corrected

Since the deal is private, none of the new notes and shares issuable upon conversion are registered for public sale.Most recently,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SRPT/">SRPT</a> issued an equity grant of about $12 million to Douglas S.

Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (SRPT) announced on Thursday that it has entered into agreements with investors to restructure about $700 million of debt.The company <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://investorrelations.sarepta.com/news-releases/news-release-details/sarepta-therapeutics-announces-refinancing-approximately-700">said</a> it will exchange approximately $700 million in aggregate principal amount of its existing convertible notes due 2027 for roughly $602 million in new 4.875% convertible senior notes due 2030, up to approximately 6.7 million shares of its common stock, and about $123.3 million in cash.Although the company has managed to push back the maturity of the new debt to 2030, it is also offering cash and common stock to investors. A fear of a potential dilution appears to have disappointed investors. SRPT stock was down over 7% at the time of writing.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SRPT">SRPT stock</a> stayed within ‘neutral’ territory over the past 24 hours, while message volume remained at ‘low’ levels.

"By extending the maturity of a meaningful portion of our convertible notes to 2030, we have completed a shareholder-friendly transaction that significantly enhances our balance sheet flexibility and strengthens our financial position,” Ingram said.Ingram also said that the company believes it is well-positioned to fully fund its pipeline and meet its near-term obligations.Bank of America said that the debt refinancing transaction "makes sense" as it helps mitigate some near-term concerns about the company's ability to meet its obligations.

Both non-ambulatory patients suffered from acute liver failure.Sarepta has now resumed shipments for ambulatory individuals after a temporary pause initiated in late July. The company is now working with the FDA on the safety labelling process and risk-mitigation approach for non-ambulatory individuals.
