Item 4.
Ownership

 
(a)
Amount beneficially owned:

 
 
The Reporting Persons hold 15,000 shares of Series X Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series X Preferred Stock”).  The Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at a per share rate of one thousand (1,000) divided by the conversion price of the Series X Preferred Stock (the “Series X Conversion Price”). The Series X Conversion Price will be equal to the lower of: (a) $2.95, the closing price for the Common Stock as reported on NASDAQ on September 6, 2016, or (b) the five-day volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Issuer’s Common Stock over the five full trading days following the earlier of (1) the date of the Issuer’s initial public announcement of topline and/or efficacy data from the ongoing Chablis-SC1 study or (2) if applicable, the date of the Issuer’s initial public announcement of the suspension (including through the imposition of a clinical hold), abandonment or other termination of the Chablis-SC1 study. Assuming a Series X Conversion Price of $2.95, the Series X Preferred Stock would be convertible into an aggregate of approximately 5,084,745 shares of Common Stock.
 
 
 
The Series X Preferred Stock may not be converted if, after such conversion, 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 “Series X Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). As of the date hereof, the Series X Preferred Stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation described in the prior sentence limits the aggregate conversion by the Reporting Persons to approximately 4,582,033 shares of Common Stock underlying the Series X Preferred Stock, owned by the Reporting Persons in the aggregate.

 
In providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed only certain Series X Preferred Stock owned by BVF and BVF2 would be fully converted, certain Series X Preferred Stock held in the Partners Managed Account would be partially converted and the remaining Series X Preferred Stock owned by Trading Fund OS would remain unconverted, thereby bringing the Reporting Persons to the aggregate Series X Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

 
In addition to the Series X Preferred Stock, the Reporting Persons hold approximately 1,271,185 Shares underlying certain warrants (the “Warrants”).  The Warrants will be exercised at a rate of 25% of the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series X Preferred Stock converts. Each Warrant has an exercise price equal to the Series X Conversion Price, plus a 20% premium, and will be exercisable at any time and from time to time after the date that is six months from the date of issuance, and will expire thirty months from the first date it first becomes exercisable. If the Series X Preferred Stock were convertible into 5,084,745 shares of Common Stock, the Warrants would be exercisable to purchase 1,271,185 shares of Common Stock.

 
The Warrants may not be exercised if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with the Exchange Act, more than 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation”).

 
Due to the Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation, in providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed that no Warrants would be exercised.

 
In addition to the Series X Preferred Stock and Warrants, the Reporting Persons hold an option to purchase an aggregate of 25,000 shares of Series X-1 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series X-1 Preferred Stock” and the option to purchase the Series X-1 Preferred Stock the “Series X-1 Preferred Option”).
 
 
 
The Series X-1 Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at a rate of the lesser of: (i) one thousand (1,000) divided by the product of the Series X Conversion Price and one-hundred and seventy five percent (175%) and (ii) one thousand (1,000) divided by seventy-five percent (75%) of the 5-day VWAP following the public announcement of certain top-line data.
 
 
 
The conversion price for the Series X-1 Preferred Stock will be equal to the lower of: (a) 75% of the five-day VWAP of the Issuer’s Common Stock over the five full trading days following the Issuer’s initial public announcement of top-line clinical efficacy and safety data from the Issuer’s ongoing “SOLUTION” clinical study or (b) 175% of the then-applicable conversion price for the Series X Preferred Stock, provided that the conversion price will in no event be lower than $2.95, the closing price for the Common Stock as reported on NASDAQ on September 6, 2016. Without the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (defined below), the 25,000 shares of Series X-1 Preferred Stock is convertible into approximately 4,842,613 shares of Common Stock.

 
The Series X-1 Option may not be exercised if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with the Exchange Act, more than 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “Series X-1 Beneficial Ownership Limitation”, together with the “Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation” and the “Series X Preferred Stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation” the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”).

 
Due to the Series X-1 Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Reporting Persons have assumed that the Series X-1 Preferred Option would not be converted.

 
The Reporting Persons may choose to convert or exercise, as applicable, the Series X Preferred Stock, Series X-1 Preferred Option, Series X-1 Preferred Stock, or Warrants 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 approximately 2,355,593 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of 6,949 shares of Series X Preferred Stock held by it; (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned approximately 1,539,661 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of 4,542 shares of Series X Preferred Stock held by it, and (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned 0 shares of Common Stock, excluding approximately 458,305 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of 1,352 shares of Series X Preferred Stock held by it due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. In each case, assuming a Series X Conversion Price of $2.95.

 
Partners OS as the general partner of Trading Fund OS may be deemed to beneficially own 0 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Trading Fund OS.

 
Partners, as the general partner of BVF, BVF2, the investment manager of Trading Fund OS, and the sole member of Partners OS, may be deemed to beneficially own the approximately 4,582,033 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned in the aggregate by BVF, BVF2, Trading Fund OS, and a certain Partners Managed Account (the “Partners Managed Account”), including approximately 686,779 shares of Common Stock held in the Partners Managed Account issuable upon the conversion of 2,026 shares of Series X Preferred Stock, and excluding approximately 44,407 shares of Common Stock held in the Partners Managed Account due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. In total, the Partners Managed Account holds approximately 731,186 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of 2,157 shares of Series X Preferred Stock.
 
 
 
BVF Inc., as the general partner of Partners, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,582,033 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Partners.

 
Mr. Lampert, as a director and officer of BVF Inc., may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,582,033 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by BVF Inc.

 
The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by any Reporting Person as to beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock owned by another Reporting Person. Partners OS disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Trading Fund OS. Each of Partners, BVF Inc. and Mr. Lampert disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by BVF, BVF2, Trading Fund OS, and the Partners Managed Account, and the filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that any such person or entity is the beneficial owner of any such securities.

 
(b)
Percent of class:

 
The following percentages are based on a denominator that is the sum of: (a) 41,285,033 shares of Common Stock outstanding, as disclosed in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement on Form 424B5 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC) on September 8, 2016 and (b) 4,582,033 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired, depending on certain events, upon the conversion of certain Series X Preferred Stock held by the Reporting Persons.

 
As of the date hereof, (i) BVF beneficially owned approximately 5.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned approximately 3.3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (iii) Trading Fund OS does not beneficially own any of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (iv) Partners OS does not beneficially own any of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and (v) each of Partners, BVF Inc. and Mr. Lampert may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (approximately 1.5% of which is held in the Partners Managed Account).
