ITEM 4. Purpose of Transactions.
On December 12, 2012, the Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Issuer and the Funds, along with certain other accredited investors. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer agreed to sell to the Funds in a private placement an aggregate of 4,466,140 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $4.43 per share and warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share at a purchase price of $4.42 per warrant (the “2019 Warrants”) for an aggregate purchase price of $21,995,000.20 (the “Transaction”). Each of the 2019 Warrants is exercisable for one share of Common Stock. The 2019 Warrants become exercisable six months after the closing date of the Transaction and expire on the seventh anniversary of the closing date. The 2019 Warrants may be exercised for cash or, if the fair market value of the Common Stock is greater than the per share exercise price, by surrender of a portion of such 2019 Warrants in a cashless exercise.The Funds purchased the shares of Common Stock and the 2019 Warrants from available working capital.
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to file, within 30 days after the closing of the Transaction, a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register for resale the shares of Common Stock purchased and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the 2019 Warrants, which registration statement is required under the Purchase Agreement to become effective no later than 120 days following the closing of the Transaction. The Issuer will be required to pay liquidated damages of 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price of the securities purchased in the Transaction per month (up to a cap of 10%) if it does not meet certain obligations with respect to the registration of the shares of Common Stock purchased and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2019 Warrants.
The Funds purchased an aggregate of 4,466,140 shares of Common Stock and 500,000 2019 Warrants as follows:
Fund | Shares | 2019 Warrants | Price Paid | |||||||||
667, L.P. | 376,328 | 42,131 | $ | 1,853,352.06 | ||||||||
Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. | 3,993,957 | 447,138 | $ | 19,669,579.47 | ||||||||
14159, L.P. | 95,855 | 10,731 | $ | 472,068.67 |
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement and the 2019 Warrants do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, reference to the full texts of the Purchase Agreement and the 2019 Warrants, a form of which is included as an exhibit to the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement is included as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Funds hold the securities for investment purposes. Whether the Reporting Persons or their affiliates purchase any additional securities or dispose of any securities, and the amount and timing of any such transactions, will depend upon the Reporting Persons’ continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of shares of Common Stock or other securities for purchase at particular price levels, the Issuer’s business and prospects, other business investment opportunities, economic conditions, stock market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the board of directors and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of shares in the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the particular entities. The Reporting Persons may discuss items of mutual interest with the Issuer, which could include items in (a) through (j).
Depending upon their assessments of the above factors from time to time, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may change their present intentions as stated above, including assessing whether to seek to nominate a member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, whether to make suggestions to the management of the Issuer regarding financing, and whether to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, including shares of Common Stock (by means of open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, exercise of some or all of any warrants held, or otherwise) or to dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer, including shares of Common Stock, under their control. Except as otherwise disclosed herein, at the present time, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals with respect to any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer including, without limitation, those matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
ITEM 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) and (b) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. Set forth below is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer directly held by each of the Funds, which may be deemed to be indirectly beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, as well as shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon exercise of the 2019 Warrants and the 2018 Warrants (as defined below) by the Funds, subject to the limitations on exercise described below.
Holder | Shares of Common Stock | 2019 Warrants | 2018 Warrants | |||||||||
667, L.P. | 1,045,475 | 42,131 | - | |||||||||
Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. | 14,229,612 | 447,138 | 1,426,590 | |||||||||
14159, L.P. | 346,725 | 10,731 | 39,378 | |||||||||
Total | 15,621,812 | 500,000 | 1,465,968 |
The 2019 Warrants are only exercisable to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise the holders thereof and their affiliates would beneficially own, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), no more than 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. As a result of this restriction, the number of shares that may be issued upon exercise of the 2019 Warrants by the above holders may change depending upon changes in the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Prior to the Transaction, the Funds in January 2011 in the aggregate purchased from the Issuer 4,188,482 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 1,465,968 shares of Common Stock (the “2018 Warrants”). Additionally, the Funds hold an aggregate of 7,183,688 shares of Common Stock that were purchased in transactions effected in open market acquired in the ordinary course of business.
The 2018 Warrants are only exercisable to the extent that giving effect to such exercise would not cause the holders thereof and their affiliates to beneficially own, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, in excess of 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. As a result of this restriction, the number of shares that may be issued on exercise of the 2018 Warrants by the above holders may change depending upon changes in the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
On April 12, 2012, the Adviser, each of the Funds, and the general partners of the Funds entered into an amended and restated management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) which gave the Adviser complete and unlimited discretion and authority with respect to the Funds’ investments and voting power over investments. The general partners of the Funds relinquished all discretion and authority with respect to the Funds’ investments and voting power over investments. In connection with the services provided by the Adviser to the Funds, the Adviser receives a management based fee that does not confer any pecuniary interest.
The Adviser, and Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker as principals of the Adviser, may be deemed to be beneficial owners of securities of the Issuer directly held by the Funds, and may be deemed to have the power to vote or direct the vote of and the power to dispose or direct the disposition of such securities.
The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities held by each of the Funds, and this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of such securities for purposes of Section 13(d) or for any other purpose.
(c) The following transactions in the Issuer’s Common Stock were effected by the Funds noted below during the past 60 days using working capital of the applicable purchasing Fund. All transactions were effected either pursuant to the Transaction described in Item 4 or in the open market directly with a broker-dealer. Except as disclosed herein, none of the Reporting Persons or their affiliates has effected any other transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
