Item 1.  Security and Issuer

 

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Schedule 13D supplements and amends the Statement of Schedule 13D of OrbiMed Advisors LLC and OrbiMed Capital GP VI LLC (the “Statement”) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 27, 2019. This Statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”) of Prevail Therapeutics Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Issuer”), with its principal executive offices located at 430 East 29^th Street, Suite 940, New York, NY 10016.  The Shares are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol “PRVL”. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.

On January 22, 2021, the Issuer completed a previously announced merger made pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 22, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Issuer, Eli Lilly and Company, an Indiana corporation (“Parent”), and Parent’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Tyto Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the Shares in exchange for (i) $22.50 per Share plus (ii) one non-tradeable contingent value right, which represents the contractual right to receive a contingent payment of up to $4.00 per Share, which amount (or such lesser amount as determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contingent value rights agreement to be entered into with a rights agent mutually agreeable to Parent and the Company) will become payable, if at all, if a specified milestone is achieved prior to December 1, 2028 (the “Offer Price”).

The Offer expired at one minute after 11:59 p.m. (12:00 midnight) Eastern time, on Thursday, January 21, 2021. The number of Shares tendered satisfied the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and on January 22, 2021, as a result of its acceptance of, and payment for, the Shares tendered in the Offer, Purchaser acquired a sufficient number of Shares to complete the merger of Purchaser with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), without a vote of the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Accordingly, following the consummation of the Offer, Parent and Purchaser effected the Merger pursuant to Section 251(h). At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding Share (including each Share held by the Reporting Persons) was converted into the right to receive the Offer Price from Purchaser. At the effective time of the Merger, the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
