The following constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the "Amendment No. 2"). This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein. |

The Caligan Parties used a total of approximately $29,535,114 (including brokerage commissions) to acquire the Common Stock beneficially owned by them. The source of the funds used to acquire the Common Stock beneficially owned by the Caligan Parties was the working capital of the Caligan Fund and the Caligan Account. | |

Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following: |
On October 8, 2019, Caligan, Caligan Partners CV II LP, Mr. Johnson and Paul Fonteyne ("Mr. Fonteyne") (collectively, the "Investor Group") entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the Issuer, pursuant to which the Issuer has agreed that the Board will increase the size of the Board from nine to eleven directors and appoint Mr. Johnson and Mr. Fonteyne to the Board as directors effective upon the execution and delivery of the Settlement Agreement. Effective at the conclusion of the Company's 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2020 Annual Meeting"), the size of the Board will be reduced to nine directors (and will include Mr. Johnson and Mr. Fonteyne, provided they are elected by the Company's shareholders at the 2020 Annual Meeting) and will not be increased during the term of the Settlement Agreement unless at least two-thirds of the members of the Board approve an increase in the size of the Board. In connection with the Settlement Agreement, the Investor Group has withdrawn its consent solicitation with regard to the Issuer.
The Board also appointed Mr. Johnson to the Issuer's Audit Committee and Mr. Fonteyne to the Issuer's Compensation Committee. In addition, under the Settlement Agreement, the Investor Group is entitled to designate a replacement independent director in the event (i) Mr. Johnson ceases to be a director of the Company due to death, disability or other incapacity or (ii) Mr. Fonteyne is no longer able or willing to serve as a director of the Company for any reason, subject to approval (not to be unreasonably withheld) of any replacement independent director by the Governance and Risk Committee of the Board and certain ownership conditions with respect to the Investor Group’s ownership of Common Stock.
The Settlement Agreement also provides for customary standstill provisions during the term of the Settlement Agreement, including, among other things, a restriction on purchases of Common Stock that would cause the Investor Group to have a beneficial ownership interest at or in excess of 12.5% of the Issuer’s then-outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Settlement Agreement will terminate on the date that is 30 calendar days prior to the nomination notice deadline for director candidates at the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders but may be extended in certain cases to 30 days prior to the director nomination deadline for the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders subject to certain conditions.
|
The Settlement Agreement also provides that, until the Settlement Agreement is terminated, the members of the Investor Group will vote their shares of Common Stock at each stockholder meeting in accordance with the Issuer's recommendations with respect to the election, removal and/or replacement of directors and any other proposal submitted to the stockholders at such meeting other than a proposal with respect to an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) or except in the event either ISS or Glass Lewis issues a voting recommendation that differs from the voting recommendation of the Board. |
The foregoing summary of the Settlement Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Settlement Agreement, which is included as Exhibit F hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. | |
