("Sunesis " or the "Company") (NASDAQ: SNSS) in connection with the Company's proposed merger with privately-held Viracta Therapeutics, Inc. ("Viracta"). Under the terms of the merger agreement, Sunesis and Viracta will combine, resulting in current Viracta stockholders owning 86% of the post-close company and leaving only 14% of the surviving entity to current Sunesis stockholders.
