Includes 1,379,838 Warrants (defined in Item 4) to acquire 1,379,838 shares of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Warrant exercise limitation described in the next sentence limits the aggregate exercise of Warrants by the Reporting Persons to 1,379,838 out of the 3,999,998 shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants owned in the aggregate. The Warrants may not be exercised if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, more than 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding. In providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed only certain Warrants owned by BVF would be fully exercised, and the remaining Warrants held by BVF, BVF 2, Trading Fund OS and those in the Partners Managed Accounts would remain unexercised, thereby bringing the Reporting Persons to the aggregate 9.99% limitation. As such, BVF holds Warrants to acquire 118,428 additional shares which are excluded from the table above as a result of the 9.99% limitation.

 

The Reporting Persons may choose to convert or exercise, as applicable, the Warrants or Convertible Notes in other amounts among the Reporting Persons, while continuing to comply with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

Item 4.Ownership

 

(a)Amount beneficially owned:

 

The Reporting Persons hold 3,999,998 warrants, convertible for an aggregate of 3,999,998 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant is convertible into 1 share of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons have elected to implement blocker language for the Warrants that restrict exercise of the Warrants if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), more than 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). As of the date hereof, the Warrant exercise limitation described in the prior sentence limits the aggregate exercise of Warrants by the Reporting Persons to 1,379,838 out of the 3,999,998 shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants owned by the Reporting Persons in the aggregate. In providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed only certain Warrants owned by BVF would be fully exercised, and the remaining Warrants held by BVF, BVF 2, Trading Fund OS and those in the Partners Managed Accounts would remain unexercised, thereby bringing the Reporting Persons to the aggregate 9.99% limitation.

 

In addition to the Warrants, the Reporting Persons hold $10,000,000 of the Issuer’s 2.75% convertible senior notes due 2020 (the “Convertible Notes”) convertible into approximately 122,122 shares of Common Stock based on a ratio of 12.21225 shares of Common Stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes. In providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed that all Convertible Notes would be converted.

 

The Reporting Persons may choose to convert or exercise, as applicable, the Warrants or Convertible Notes in other amounts among the Reporting Persons, while continuing to comply with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

 

As of the date hereof, (i) BVF beneficially owned 1,687,702 shares of Common Stock, including 56,518 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Convertible Notes held by it and including 1,379,838 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of Warrants held by it; (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned 204,343 shares of Common Stock including 36,978 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Convertible Notes held by it, and (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned 54,099 shares of Common Stock including 11,076 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Convertible Notes held by it.
