This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) to the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 27, 2016, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on January 12, 2017, Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on November 22, 2017 and Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on July 10, 2018, relates to the Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Shares”) of Loxo Oncology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) and is being filed to amend the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth below. The principal executive office of the Issuer is located at 281 Tresser Blvd., 9th Floor, Stamford, CT 06901.

Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D, and unless otherwise amended hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect.

Item 2. Identity and Background

No material change.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

No material change.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following disclosure at the end of such item:

On January 5, 2019, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Eli Lilly and Company (“Parent”) and Bowfin Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), providing for the acquisition of the Issuer by Merger Sub in an all cash transaction, pursuant to a tender offer (the “Offer”), followed by a subsequent back-end merger of Merger Sub with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Aisling Capital III, LP (“Aisling”) entered into the tender and support agreement described in Item 6 hereof. The information set forth or incorporated in Item 6 hereof is incorporated herein by reference.

SCHEDULE 13D
Page 9 of 10

 

 

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

 

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following disclosure at the end of such item:
On January 5, 2019,  in connection with the Merger Agreement, Aisling entered into a Tender and Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”), by and among Aisling, Parent and Merger Sub, pursuant to which Aisling agreed to tender all of the Shares beneficially owned by it as of the date of the Support Agreement or acquired by it after such date (the “Subject Shares”) and to take certain other actions in furtherance of the Merger.  Aisling also agreed that it will vote the Subject Shares against certain alternative corporate transactions, each as more fully described in the Support Agreement, during the time that the Support Agreement is in effect.
The Support Agreement will terminate upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement; (ii) the effectiveness of the Merger; (iii) the termination of the Support Agreement by written notice from Parent to Aisling; or (iv) any amendment or change to the Merger Agreement or the Offer that is effected without Aisling’s consent that decreases the amount, or changes the form or terms, of consideration payable to all stockholders of the Issuer pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Support Agreement filed as Exhibit 7 to this Amendment.
