ITEM 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5(a), (b) and (c) of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(a) The aggregate amount of the Issuer’s securities that may be deemed beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is comprised of the following: (i) 633,805 shares of Common Stock, 211,554 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 90,736 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Fund, LP, (ii) 1,220,885 shares of Common Stock and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 95,089 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore Master Fund, Ltd., (iii) 99,200 shares of Common Stock and 113,400 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore Fund (ERISA), Ltd., (iv) 273,078 shares of Common Stock, 103,927 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 93,244 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore II Master Fund, Ltd., (v) 348,605 shares of Common Stock, 365,928 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 140,725 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Trading Sub, Ltd., (vi) 220,882 shares of Common Stock, 135,796 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock and a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 25,650 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Long Only Trading Sub, Ltd., (vii) 1,513,225 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by Redmile Biopharma Investments II, L.P., (viii) 175,087 shares of Common Stock held by Map 20 Segregated Portfolio, a segregated portfolio of LMA SPC, (ix) a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 222,222 shares of Common Stock held by RedCo I, L.P. and (x) 2,056,395 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by RedCo II Master Fund, L.P. Redmile Group, LLC is the investment manager/adviser to each of the Redmile Affiliates and, in such capacity, exercises sole voting and investment power over all of the shares held by the Redmile Affiliates and may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares. Jeremy C. Green serves as the managing member of Redmile Group, LLC and also may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares. Redmile Group, LLC and Mr. Green each disclaim beneficial ownership of these shares, except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest in such shares, if any.

 

Redmile and Mr. Green may also be deemed to beneficially own (i) 59,311 shares of Common Stock subject to options to purchase shares of Common Stock that are exercisable within 60 days of the date of this filing, and (ii) 2,644 shares of Common Stock issued to Michael Lee pursuant to restricted stock units. The stock options and restricted stock units were granted to Mr. Lee, a managing director of Redmile, in connection with his service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer. Pursuant to the policies of Redmile, Mr. Lee holds the stock options and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the restricted stock units as a nominee on behalf, and for the sole benefit, of Redmile and has assigned all economic, pecuniary and voting rights in respect of the stock options and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the restricted stock units to Redmile.

 

Redmile and Mr. Green each disclaim beneficial ownership of the stock options and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the restricted stock units, except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest in the shares subject to such options and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the restricted stock units, if any, and this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owner of such securities any purpose.

 

The 3,033,497 shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by Redmile and Mr. Green in this Schedule 13D/A (including the Common Stock subject to the options to purchase shares that are exercisable within 60 days of the date of this filing) represents approximately 10.3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, as calculated in accordance with the last paragraph of this Item 5(a).

 

The Non-Voting Common Stock is initially convertible into shares of Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. Pursuant to the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), the Issuer may not effect any conversion of the Non-Voting Common Stock, and a holder of the Non-Voting Common Stock does not have the right to convert any portion of the Non-Voting Common Stock held by such holder, to the extent that, after giving effect to the attempted conversion set forth in a notice of conversion, such holder, together with such holder’s affiliates and any other person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including any “group” of which such holder is a member, would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the “Beneficial Ownership Blocker”). The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” is 4.99% of the shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding, which percentage may be changed at a holder’s election upon 61 days’ notice to the Issuer. Because the percentage of shares of Common Stock collectively held directly by the Redmile Affiliates currently exceeds 4.99%, the conversion of the Non-Voting Common Stock held by the Redmile Affiliates is currently limited in its entirety by the Beneficial Ownership Blocker and the Reporting Persons therefore cannot be deemed to have beneficial ownership over any of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Non-Voting Common Stock and such shares have not been included in the aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned as reported in this Schedule 13D.

 

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Issuer shall not effect any exercise of, and a holder of the Pre-Funded Warrants shall not be entitled to exercise, any Pre-Funded Warrants held by such holder for a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares of Common Stock which, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (i)  the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder, such holder’s affiliates and any persons who are members of a group for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with such holder or its affiliates to exceed the Maximum Percentage (as defined below) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates and any other persons who are members of a group for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with such holder or its affiliates to exceed the Maximum Percentage of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Issuer then outstanding following such exercise (the “Warrant Beneficial Ownership Blocker”). The “Maximum Percentage” is 9.99%, which percentage may be changed to up to 19.99% at a holder’s election upon at least 61 days’ notice to the Issuer. Because the percentage of shares of Common Stock collectively held directly by the Redmile Affiliates currently exceeds 9.99%, the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants held by the Redmile Affiliates is currently limited in its entirety by the Warrant Beneficial Ownership Blocker and the Reporting Persons therefore cannot be deemed to have beneficial ownership over any of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and such shares have not been included in the aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned as reported in this Schedule 13D.

 

For purposes of this Schedule 13D, the percent of class beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is calculated based on the sum of: (i) 29,508,089 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 4, 2023, as disclosed in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on May 12, 2023, plus (ii) 59,311 shares of Common Stock subject to options to purchase shares of Common Stock that are exercisable within 60 days of the date of this filing that were issued to Mr. Lee in connection with his service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer.
