Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
As previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have significant concerns regarding serious corporate governance deficiencies, questionable capital allocation decisions, and egregious actions taken by the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to impede strategic interest in acquiring the Issuer and to suppress shareholder rights, which Starboard Value LP and it affiliates (“Starboard”) have outlined in a letter to the Issuer, dated April 8, 2016 and an open letter to shareholders of the Issuer, dated May 26, 2016. Starboard’s concerns are exemplified by (i) the manner in which the Issuer sought to fend off an unsolicited proposal from Horizon Pharma plc in 2015 through its unilateral adoption of a poison pill with a 10% trigger threshold and Bylaw amendments aimed at making it significantly more difficult and time-consuming for shareholders to call a special meeting, and more recently, (ii) the surreptitious manner in which the Board attempted to further entrench itself under the guise of a proposal to reincorporate the Issuer in Delaware. Starboard believes the Board clearly lacks the independence, objectivity, and perspective needed to make decisions that are in the best interests of shareholders.
To that end, Starboard delivered a new written request, dated May 26, 2016, to the Issuer in accordance with the Issuer’s Bylaws, that the Board set a record date for determining the shareholders entitled to call a special meeting (the “Record Date Request Notice”) for purposes of seeking to remove and replace the current Board. The Record Date Request Notice supersedes Starboard’s initial request delivered to the Issuer on April 8, 2016 (the “Initial Record Date Request Notice”). The Initial Record Date Request Notice was delivered to the Issuer in order to preserve Starboard’s rights under California law and mitigate the risk that the Issuer would seek to further amend its governance provisions to suppress shareholder rights.
Since delivering the Initial Record Date Request Notice, Starboard has undertaken an extensive process to carefully vet a slate of highly-qualified nominees that included the evaluation of over 100 qualified potential candidates. Starboard has selected a group of six candidates possessing unique skill sets and perspectives directly relevant to the Issuer’s business and current challenges, including pharmaceutical operations, healthcare regulatory, finance, board governance and oversight, and mergers and acquisitions expertise, as exemplified by their biographies below.

Starboard V&O Fund has agreed to compensate each of Messrs. Delucca and Lankau, as well as Ms. Pendergast, for being named as and serving as nominees for election as directors of the Issuer pursuant to letter agreements (the “Compensation Letter Agreements”). Under the Compensation Letter Agreements, Starboard V&O Fund has agreed to pay each of Messrs. Delucca and Lankau, and Ms. Pendergast (i) $15,000 in cash upon submission of the Record Date Request Notice and (ii) $15,000 in cash upon the filing of a definitive proxy statement with the SEC by Starboard Value LP or its affiliates relating to the Solicitation. Pursuant to the Compensation Letter Agreements, each of Messrs. Delucca and Lankau and Ms. Pendergast agreed to use the after-tax proceeds from such compensation to acquire securities of the Issuer (the “Nominee Shares”), at such time that each of Messrs. Delucca and Lankau, and Ms. Pendergast, shall determine, but in any event no later than fourteen (14) days after receipt of such compensation, subject to certain limitations. If elected or appointed to serve as a director of the Board, each of Messrs. Delucca and Lankau and Ms. Pendergast agreed not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Nominee Shares within two years of his or her election or appointment as a director; provided, however, in the event that the Issuer enters into a business combination with a third party, each of Messrs. Delucca and Lankau and Ms. Pendergast may sell, transfer or exchange the Nominee Shares in accordance with the terms of such business combination. A form of the Compensation Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.
