Seattle Genetics Inc. (NASDAQ:SGEN) is the subject of a new 13D filing issued by Julian Baker and Felix Baker‘s Baker Bros. Advisors. Among other things, the filing shows that the healthcare investment firm continues to buy shares of Seattle Genetics, having added about 1.36 million shares of the company to its portfolio since a filing in late February. The investors now own 29.5% of the company’s shares.
Item 4 of the filing was updated with the following information related to exercised stock options:
“On March 8, 2016 the Adviser acquired beneficial ownership of 10,000 shares of common stock of Seattle Genetics, Inc. (the “Issuer”), as a result of the exercise of 10,000 options to purchase the Issuer’s common stock at $4.18 per share (the “Exercised Stock Options”) held directly by Felix J. Baker. Felix J. Baker currently serves on the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as a representative of the Funds. The policy of the Funds and the Adviser does not permit employees of the Adviser to receive compensation for serving as directors of the Issuer, and the Funds are instead entitled to the pecuniary interest in the Exercised Stock Options. Felix J. Baker, as an agent in his capacity as a director of the Issuer, entered into a proceeds agreement (the “Proceeds Agreement”) with the Adviser on March 8, 2016. Pursuant to the Proceeds Agreement, Felix J. Baker agreed that, with respect to the Exercised Stock Options and the common stock received as a result of the exercise of the Exercised Stock Options (the “Common Stock”) on March 8, 2016, the Adviser will have dispositive power as well as the ability to control the timing of exercise of the Exercised Stock Options and that any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock will be remitted to the Adviser net of brokerage commissions. Other than through their control of the Adviser, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker have neither voting nor dispositive power and have no direct pecuniary interest in the Exercised Stock Options or the Common Stock. Pursuant to the Proceeds Agreement, the Adviser funded Felix J. Baker’s exercise of the Exercised Stock Options through loans from the Funds (the “Loan Agreements”). The total amount expended on acquiring the Common Stock was $41,800. In order to effect the exercise of the Exercised Stock Options, on March 8, 2016, the Adviser entered into the Loan Agreements with the Funds pursuant to which 667 and Life Sciences loaned $4,322.12 and $37,477.88, respectively, totaling $41,800 to the Adviser for the purpose of acquiring the Common Stock. The loan is due March 8, 2046, or earlier if the Common Stock are sold (“Due Date”), with interest payable through the Due Date at a rate of 2.33% annually.”
