Item 4. | Ownership |
(a) | Amount beneficially owned: |
10 |
CUSIP NO. 98420X103
As of the close of business on April 22, 2019, the Reporting Persons held 910,750 Class A Warrants (the “Class A Warrants”) exercisable into an aggregate of 910,750 Shares. Each Class A Warrant has an exercise price per Share equal to $13.20 and expires 60 months from the date of issuance. The Class A Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, provided that the holder will be prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from exercising the Class A Warrants for Shares to the extent that immediately prior to or after giving effect to such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates and other attribution parties, would own more than 9.99% of the total number of Shares then issued and outstanding (the “Class A Blocker”). As of the close of business on April 22, 2019, the Class A Blocker limits the aggregate exercise of Class A Warrants by the Reporting Persons to 547,416 out of 910,750 Shares underlying the Class A Warrants owned by the Reporting Persons in the aggregate. In providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed that all of the Class A Warrants held by BVF to acquire 450,314 Shares and certain of the Class A Warrants held by BVF2 to acquire 97,102 Shares would be exercised, which would bring the Reporting Persons to the aggregate 9.99% limitation, and the remaining Class A Warrants exercisable into 266,708 Shares owned by BVF2, the Class A Warrants exercisable into 64,996 Shares owned by Trading Fund OS, and the Class A Warrants exercisable into 31,630 Shares held in a certain Partners managed account (the “Partners Managed Account”), would not be exercised due to the Class A Blocker.
As of the close of business on April 22, 2019, the Reporting Persons held 1,073,000 Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) exercisable into an aggregate of 1,073,000 Shares. Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price per Share equal to $0.001 per Share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and do not expire. However, under the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Issuer may not effect the exercise of any Pre-Funded Warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant, which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of Shares beneficially owned by the holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the number of Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Issuer’s securities beneficially owned by the holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the combined voting power of all of the Issuer’s securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Pre-Funded Blocker” and together with the Class A Blocker, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). As of the close of business on April 22, 2019, the Pre-Funded Blocker limits the exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants by the Reporting Persons to zero out of the 1,073,000 Shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants owned by the Reporting Persons in the aggregate. BVF holds Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 530,425 additional Shares which are excluded herein as a result of the Pre-Funded Blocker. BVF2 holds Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 428,704 additional Shares which are excluded herein as a result of the Pre-Funded Blocker. BVTOS holds Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 76,534 additional Shares which are excluded herein as a result of the Pre-Funded Blocker. The Reporting Persons through the Partners Managed Account holds Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 37,337 additional Shares which are excluded herein as a result of the Pre-Funded Blocker.
The Reporting Persons may choose to exercise the Class A Warrants or the Pre-Funded Warrants in other amounts among the Reporting Persons, while continuing to comply with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
As of the close of business on April 22, 2019 (i) BVF beneficially owned 818,595 Shares, (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned 394,758 Shares, and (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned 53,140 Shares.
11 |
CUSIP NO. 98420X103
Partners OS, as the general partner of Trading Fund OS, may be deemed to beneficially own the 53,140 Shares 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 1,292,416 Shares beneficially owned in the aggregate by BVF, BVF2, Trading Fund OS, and the Partners Managed Accounts, including 25,923 Shares held in the Partners Managed Accounts.
BVF Inc., as the general partner of Partners, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,292,416 Shares beneficially owned by Partners.
Mr. Lampert, as a director and officer of BVF Inc., may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,292,416 Shares 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 owned by another Reporting Person. Partners OS disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned by Trading Fund OS. Each of Partners, BVF Inc. and Mr. Lampert disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares 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 (i) 12,389,684 Shares outstanding as disclosed in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2019 and (ii) certain or all of the 547,416 Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Class A Warrants, as applicable.
As of the close of business on April 22, 2019 (i) BVF beneficially owned approximately 6.4% of the outstanding Shares, (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned approximately 3.2% of the outstanding Shares, (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned less than 1% of the outstanding Shares, (iv) Partners OS may be deemed to beneficially own less than 1% of the outstanding Shares, and (v) each of Partners, BVF Inc. and Mr. Lampert may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 9.99% of the outstanding Shares (less than 1% of the outstanding Shares is held in the Partners Managed Account).
