 < /font>

Items 5(a), (b) and (c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated in their entirety with the following:

 

(a) and (b) The Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 3,949,829 shares of Common Stock, which includes (i) 3,055,055 shares of Common Stock held by KKR Biosimilar and (ii) 894,774 shares of Common Stock issuable to KKR Biosimilar upon conversion of the Convertible Notes held by KKR Biosimilar pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, representing approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on 40,033,999 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which includes (x) 39,139,225 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2016, as reported in the Issuer’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2016 and (y) 894,774 shares of Common Stock that KKR Biosimilar may acquire upon the conversion of the Convertible Notes owned by KKR Biosimilar.  KKR Biosimilar’s right to convert the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock will be subject to certain conditions set forth in the Convertible Notes, including the making of all required filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the expiration or termination of any required waiting period thereunder.

 

Each of KKR Biosimilar GP (as the general partner of KKR Biosimilar), KKR Fund Holdings (as the sole member of KKR Biosimilar GP) and KKR Fund Holdings GP (as a general partner of KKR Fund Holdings), KKR Group Holdings (as the sole shareholder of KKR Fund Holdings GP and a general partner of KKR Fund Holdings), KKR Group (as the general partner of KKR Group Holdings), KKR & Co. (as the sole shareholder of KKR Group), KKR Management (as the general partner of KKR & Co.), and Messrs. Henry R. Kravis and George R.

(c)          Other than as described in Item 3 above, the Reporting Persons, and to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, the other persons named in Item 2 of the Schedule 13D, have had no transactions in the Issuer’s Common Stock in the past 60 days.

 

Item 6.         Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:

 

The information set forth or incorporated in Item 3 and Item 4 is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 6.

 

Note Purchase Agreement

 

Convertible Notes

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, KKR Biosimilar purchased an aggregate principal amount of $20.0 million of Convertible Notes.  Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the holders of the Convertible Notes may convert their Convertible Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 31, 2022 into shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock. The initial conversion rate is 44.7387 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $22.35, and is subject to adjustment in certain events described in the Purchase Agreement.  KKR Biosimilar’s right to convert the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock will be subject to certain conditions set forth in the Convertible Notes, including the making of all required filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the expiration or termination of any required waiting period thereunder.  On or after March 31, 2020, the Issuer may call the Convertible Notes for redemption if the last reported sale price per share of Common Stock exceeds 160% of the conversion price on each of at least 20

 

13



 

trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Issuer sends the related redemption notice. The redemption price will be 109% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of noteholders on a record date to receive the related interest payment date).

 

The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 8.2% per annum payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning March 31, 2016. The Convertible Notes will mature on March 31, 2022, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased, and bear a premium of 9% of their principal amount, which is payable when the Convertible Notes mature or are repurchased or redeemed by the Issuer.

 

If a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) occurs, then, subject to certain exceptions, the Issuer must offer to repurchase the Convertible Notes for cash at a repurchase price of 109% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date (subject to the right of noteholders on a record date to receive the related interest payment date).

 

The Convertible Notes are subject to certain events of default, upon the occurrence of which all payments on the Convertible Notes may (and, in certain circumstances, automatically will) become immediately due.

 

Demand Registration Rights

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer has granted KKR Biosimilar and the other holders of Convertible Notes certain resale registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.  KKR Biosimilar and the other holders of Convertible Notes can, on not more than three occasions, request that the Issuer register all or a portion of their shares of Common Stock which they have received upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.  In the event such shares are to be sold in an underwritten offering, such request for registration must reasonably be expected to result in gross proceeds to the holder of at least $20.0 million.

 

Piggyback Registration Rights

 

In the event that the Issuer determines to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (subject to certain exceptions), KKR Biosimilar and the other holders of Convertible Notes will be entitled to certain “piggyback” registration rights allowing the holders to include their shares which they had received upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, subject to certain marketing and other limitations. As a result, whenever the Issuer proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other than with respect to a registration related to employee benefit plans, the offer and sale of debt securities or corporate reorganizations or certain other transactions, the holders of these shares are entitled to notice of the registration and have the right, subject to limitations that the underwriters may impose on the number of shares included in the registration, to include such shares in the registration.

 

Expenses of Registration

 

The Issuer will pay the registration expenses of the holders of the shares registered pursuant to the demand and piggyback registration rights described above.
