Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
On January 30, 2014 (the Effective Date), the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Issuer (File No. 333-191643) in connection with its initial public offering of 9,250,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the IPO) was declared effective. The closing of the IPO took place on February 5, 2014, and at such closing FLHL purchased an aggregate of 428,571 shares of Common Stock at the IPO price of $7.00 per share (the IPO Shares). In addition, immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the 18,382,352 shares of Series C Preferred Stock held of record by FLHL prior to the IPO automatically converted into 2,964,895 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer after giving effect to the 1-for-6.2 reverse stock split that became effective October 30, 2013 (the Pre-IPO Shares). FLHL now holds a total of 3,393,466 shares of the Issuers Common Stock (the FLHL Shares).
The working capital of FLHL was the source of the funds for the purchase of the FLHL Shares. No part of the purchase price of the FLHL Shares was represented by funds or other consideration borrowed or otherwise obtained for the purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting the FLHL Shares.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
(a)-(c) FLHL acquired the Pre-IPO Shares in connection with an option agreement (the Option Agreement) and a license agreement (License Agreement) that FLHL entered into with the Issuer on May 3, 2013, under which the Issuer granted to FLHL an exclusive option to license its product candidate, TRV027, in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement. The Option Agreement became effective upon FLHLs purchase of the Pre-IPO Shares. If FLHL exercises this option, the License Agreement will become effective and FLHL will have an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize TRV027 and specified related compounds in exchange for payments of up to $430 million, depending upon the achievement of future development and commercial milestones, plus royalties, and will have responsibility for the development and commercialization of the product. FLHL acquired the IPO Shares for investment purposes.
Depending on market conditions, its continuing evaluation of the business and prospects of the Issuer and other factors, FLHL and other Forest Group entities may dispose of or acquire additional shares of the Issuer. Except as set forth above, none of the Forest Group entities has any present plans (although the Forest Group reserves the right to develop such plans) which relate to or would result in:
(a) The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;
(b) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(d) Any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
(e) Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;
(f) Any other material change in the Issuers business or corporate structure, including but not limited to, if the Issuer is a registered closed-end investment company, any plans or proposals to make any changes in its investment policy for which a vote is required by section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940;
(g) Changes in the Issuers charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;
(h) Causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
SCHEDULE 13D
CUSIP No. 89532E109 | Page 7 of 11 |
(i) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or
(j) Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
(a) FLHL is the record owner of the FLHL Shares. As the owner of 100% of the voting securities of FLHL, FL Holding may be deemed to own beneficially the FLHL Shares. As the sole general partner of FL Holding, FLI International may also be deemed to own beneficially the FLHL Shares. As the sole member of FLI International, Forest may also be deemed to own beneficially the FLHL Shares. Notwithstanding the preceding, each of Forest, FLI International, FL Holding and FLHL hereby disclaim beneficial ownership of such shares of the FLHL Shares other than those shares which such entity owns of record, and this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any of Forest, FLI International, or FL Holding is, for any or all purposes, the beneficial owner of the securities covered by this Schedule 13D.
The percentage of outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each Forest Group entity is set forth on Line 13 of such entitys cover sheet. Such percentage was calculated based on the 25,734,361 shares of Common Stock expected to be outstanding immediately after the IPO, as reported on the Issuers prospectus filed under Rule 424(b)(1) with the SEC on January 31, 2014 (the Final Prospectus).
(b) As a result of the existing relationships described under Item 2 and Item 5(a) above, (i) each Forest Group entity may be deemed to have shared power to vote or direct the vote and shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 3,393,466 shares of Common Stock; and no Forest Group entity may be deemed to have sole power to vote or direct the vote and sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition any shares of Common Stock.
(c) Except as set forth in Item 3 above, there have been no transactions in the shares of Common Stock effected by any of the Forest Group entities, or, to the best of the knowledge of the Forest Group entities, any person or entity identified on Schedule A hereto, during the last 60 days.
(d) None of the Forest Group entities nor any of their respective directors and executive officers named in Schedule A hereto has or knows any other person who has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Forest Group entities.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer |
Lock-up Agreement
FLHL entered into a lock-up agreement with the underwriters of the IPO on January 24, 2014 pursuant to which FLHL has generally agreed that, subject to certain limited exceptions, without the prior written consent of each of Barclays Capital Inc. and Jefferies LLC, as representatives of the underwriters, it will not directly or indirectly, (i) offer for sale, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) any shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by FLHL in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of any options or warrants) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock; (ii) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise; (iii) make any demand for or exercise any right or file or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Common Stock or any of our other securities; or (iv) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, in each case for the period commencing on the execution date of the lock-up agreement and ending 180 days after the date of the Final Prospectus.
