(b)            Each holder of Registrable Securities shall have 30 days from the receipt of such notice to deliver to the Corporation a written request specifying the number of Registrable Shares such holder intends to sell and the holder’s intended method of disposition.

 

(c)            In the event that the proposed registration by the Corporation is, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of securities of the Corporation, any request under Section 3.5(b) may specify that the Registrable Shares be included in the underwriting (i) on the same terms and conditions as the shares of Common Stock, if any, otherwise being sold through underwriters under such registration, or (ii) on terms and conditions comparable to those normally applicable to offerings of common stock in reasonably similar circumstances in the event that no shares of Common Stock other than Registrable Shares are being sold through underwriters under such registration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no such holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds to it of all Registrable Shares sold by it pursuant to such registration statement, and (ii) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act, shall be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Annex A

 

Plan of Distribution

 

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

The following Plan of Distribution was not attached as Annex A to this Stockholders Agreement at the time this Stockholders Agreement was executed and it is not part of the executed agreement.  The Plan of Distribution was subsequently distributed to the stockholders of the Company separate from the Stockholders Agreement and is being include here for informational purposes only.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                           ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                           block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                           purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                           an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                           privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                           short sales;

 

·                                           through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                           broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                           a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                           any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales

 

52



 

of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

APPENDIX A

 

DEFINITIONS

 

(1)                                   Affiliate of a specified person (as defined below), means a person who directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls (as defined below), or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the person specified.

 

(2)                                   Beneficial , or beneficially , as applied to the ownership of securities, has been defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to mean the following:

 

A beneficial owner of a security includes any person (as defined below) who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares “voting power” and/or “investment power”.  Voting power includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; investment power includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition, of such security.

 

Note that more than one person may have a beneficial interest in the same securities; one may have voting power and the other may have investment power.

 

Even if a person, directly or indirectly, creates or uses a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement or device with the purpose or effect of divesting such person of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership to avoid the reporting requirements of section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, he will still be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such security.

 

A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within 60 days, including but not limited to any right to acquire:  (i) through the exercise of any option, warrant or right; (ii) through the conversion of a security; (iii) pursuant to the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement; or (iv) pursuant to the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement.

 

A member of a national securities exchange is not deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities held directly or indirectly by it on behalf of another person solely because such member is the record holder of such securities and, pursuant to the rules of such exchange, may direct the vote of such securities, without instruction, on other than contested matters or matters that may affect substantially the rights or privileges of the holders of the securities to be voted, but is otherwise precluded by the rules of such exchange from voting without instruction.

 

A person who in the ordinary course of business is a pledgee of securities pursuant to a bona fide pledge agreement will not be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such pledged securities merely because there has been a default under such an agreement, except during such time as the event of default shall remain uncured for more than 30 days or at any time before a default is cured if the power acquired by the pledgee pursuant to the default enables him to change or influence control of the issuer.

 

A person may also be regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of his spouse, his minor children or other relatives of his or her spouse sharing his home, or held in a trust of which he is a beneficiary or trustee, if the relationships are such that he has voting power and/or investment power with respect to such securities.

 

58



 

If you have any reason to believe that any interest you have, however remote, might be described as a beneficial interest, describe such interest.

 

(3)                                   Control means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

 

(4)                                   Person includes two or more persons acting as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding, or disposing of securities of an issuer.

APPENDIX B

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                           ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                           block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                           purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                           an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                           privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                           short sales;

 

·                                           through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                           broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                           a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                           any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or

other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Part 11.

 

(b)    Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Work Statement, a copy of all raw data, databases and analytical reports of the data resulting from the Services will be provided to Radius in a format mutually agreed upon by Radius and NB.  NB will verify the accuracy of the data contained in all databases and/or reports provided by it against the raw data and will attach a signed statement attesting to such verification to each database and/or report provided to Radius.  NB shall cause Investigators to correct any errors and omissions in such databases and reports.  As per Radius’ requirements, NB will ensure that the database format is compatible with relevant existing databases that Radius may employ.  It is understood and agreed that this Section 2.9(b) shall not supersede Section 2.10 with respect to Radius’ obligation to maintain subject confidentiality.

(d)    NB shall retain all records for each Project performed pursuant to a Work Statement and this Agreement for the longest of the following three periods: (i) two years after the FDA approves a New Drug Application for the study drug; (ii) two years after the termination or withdrawal of the applicable Regulatory Authority exemption (e.g., Investigational New Drug Application) under which the Project is conducted; or (iii) the record retention period mandated by Applicable Laws.  NB shall notify Radius immediately in writing of any accidental loss or destruction of study records.  At the completion of the Services by NB or upon the earlier termination of this Agreement or any Work Statement in accordance with Section 7.2, all materials, information and all other data owned by Radius with respect to the transactions covered by this Agreement or the applicable Work Statement, regardless of the method of storage or retrieval, shall be delivered to Radius in such form as is then currently in the possession of NB, or in such data media formats as are set forth in the Work Statement.  Alternatively, at Radius’ written request, such materials and data may be retained by NB for Radius for an agreed-upon time period, or disposed of pursuant to the written directions of Radius.  If materials are so retained, Radius shall pay a to be determined fee for storage by NB of records and materials after completion or termination of the Services.  NB, however, reserves the right to retain, at its own cost and subject to the confidentiality provisions herein, copies of all materials that may be needed to satisfy regulatory requirements or to resolve disputes regarding the Services.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to transfer from Radius to NB any FDA or Regulatory Authority record-keeping requirements unless such transfer is specifically provided for in the applicable Work Statement (list of responsibilities).

 

2.10  Data Protection.    NB and Radius agree to comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations.  If the Project will involve the collection or processing of personal data (as defined by applicable data protection legislation) within the European Economic Area, then Radius shall appoint CCBR A/S. to serve as its local representative and they shall enter into a Data Transfer Agreement containing the Standard Contractual Clauses set forth by the EU Commission Decision of 15 June 2001 (Decision 2001/497/EC) in regard to personal data for purposes of complying with the requirements of the European Union Data Protection Directive (the “ Directive ”).  It is understood and agreed that the provisions of this Section 2.10 are intended to address collection and processing of personal data of clinical study subjects and Clinical Investigators (as defined at Section 8.5) and that with respect to

15



 

NB’s representations and warranties under this Agreement; or (ii) any negligence or intentional misconduct by NB (or its employees, agents or representatives) in performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Work Statement.  The foregoing indemnification action shall not apply in the event and to the extent that such Losses arose as a result of any Radius Indemnified Party’s negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of this Agreement.

 

(b)  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4(c), Radius will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless NB and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and their successors and assigns (each, in such capacity, an “ NB Indemnified Party ”) from and against any Losses arising from any third party claim or proceeding against the NB Indemnified Party(ies) by any third party to the extent that such claim or proceeding is based on:  (i) any breach of Radius’ representations and warranties under this Agreement; (ii) any negligence or intentional misconduct by the Radius (or its employees, agents or representatives) in performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Work Statement; or (iii) product liability or personal injury arising from or relating to the Radius products or Radius’ use of any Deliverables.  The foregoing indemnification action shall not apply in the event and to the extent that such Losses arose as a result of any NB Indemnified Party’s negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of this Agreement.

 

(c)  To receive the benefit of indemnification under Section 9.4(a) or Section 9.4(b), the Radius Indemnified Party or NB Indemnified Party, as applicable, must:  (a) promptly notify the party from whom indemnification is sought (each, an “ Indemnifying Party ”) of any claim or proceeding; provided , that failure to give such notice shall not relieve Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations except where, and solely to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights of Indemnifying Party; (b) provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party (and its insurer), as reasonably requested, at Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense; and (c) tender to the Indemnifying Party (and its insurer) full authority to defend or settle the claim or suit; provided that no settlement requiring any admission by the Indemnified Party or that imposes any obligation on the Indemnified Party shall be made without the Indemnified Party’s consent.  Neither party has any obligation to indemnify the other party in connection with any settlement made without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent.  The Indemnified Party has the right to participate at its own expense in the claim or suit and in selecting counsel therefore.

 

9.5  Insurance.   Each party shall procure and maintain insurance coverage adequate to cover its obligations hereunder and which are consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similarly situated, including professional liability (or errors and omissions) or product liability or clinical trial liability insurance, whichever is applicable to the individual parties, with minimum limits of $5,000,000.00 combined single limit (errors and omissions / professional liability) in the case of NB and $10,000,000.00 combined single limit (products liability) in the case of Radius.  All insurance amounts may be obtained by full, individual primary policy amount; a primary amount of less than minimum requirement enhanced by a blanket excess umbrella policy; or a combination of either. Each party shall provide the other party with a certificate of insurance upon request. The insured shall provide the other party with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change, cancellation or expiration of the above-required insurance. If such party does not obtain replacement insurance or take other measures that allow it to provide comparable coverage within such 30-day period, the other party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement effective at the end of such 30-day period without notice or any additional waiting periods.  It is understood that such insurance shall not be construed to create a limit of either party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Section 9.

 

10.  DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 

10.1   Escalation.   The parties will attempt to settle any claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement or the subject matter hereof through consultation and negotiation in good faith in a spirit of mutual cooperation.  Such matters will be initially addressed by the Bente Juel Riis of NB and the Nick Harvey of Radius, as applicable, who shall use reasonable efforts to attempt to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations by telephone or in person as may be agreed.  If they fail to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after a party notifies the other party of the dispute, then the matter will be escalated to the Claus Christiansen of NB and the Richard Lyttle of Radius, or their designees for resolution.  They will use reasonable efforts to attempt to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations by telephone or in person as may be agreed.  If they fail to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after it is referred to them and do not mutually agree to extend the time for negotiation, then the dispute will be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 10.2.

 

16



 

 

10.2  Arbitration .   (a)  Except with respect to actions covered by Section 10.2(b)-(c), any claim or controversy arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement or the subject matter hereof that is not resolved pursuant to Section 10.1 will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Large Complex Disputes (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association, as such Rules may be modified by this Section 10.2.  If a party intends to begin an arbitration to resolve a dispute arising under this Agreement after the provisions of Section 10.1 have been exhausted, such party shall provide written notice (the “ Arbitration Request ”) to the other party of such intention and the issues for resolution.  From the date of the Arbitration Request and until such time as the dispute has become finally settled, the running of the time periods as to which a party must cure a breach of this Agreement becomes suspended as to the subject matter of the dispute.  Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, during the period of time that any arbitration proceeding is pending under this Agreement, the parties shall continue to comply with all those terms and provisions of this Agreement that are not the subject of the pending arbitration proceeding.  The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator, who will be agreed upon by the parties to such claim or controversy.  If the applicable parties are unable to agree upon a single arbitrator within thirty (30) days following the date arbitration is demanded, three arbitrators will be used, who shall be selected from a list of at least six nominee’s selected by the AAA within ten (10) Business Days after the date of the parties notify the AAA of their inability to agree upon an arbitrator.  The parties shall have five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such nominations to agree on three arbitrators none of whom is an employee, director or stockholder of any applicable party or, failing to agree, to rank-order their preferences with the most preferred being given the lowest number, and mail the rank-order to the AAA.  If the parties have not themselves agreed upon three arbitrators and notified the AAA, the AAA shall notify the parties of the selection within three (3) Business Days of receipt of the rank-order preferences from each party.  If none of the nominees is acceptable to a party, the procedure shall be repeated with a new slate of nominees, and, if the parties cannot select three arbitrators the second time, the AAA shall select the arbitrators within three (3) Business Days of receipt of responses from each party to the second round.  Unless the parties agree otherwise, they will be limited in their discovery to directly relevant documents.  Responses or objections to a document request will be served twenty (20) days after receipt of the request.  The arbitrator(s) will resolve any discovery disputes. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, all such arbitration proceedings will be held in New York, New York, provided that proceedings may be conducted by telephone conference call with the consent of the arbitrator(s).  All arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the English language and the arbitrator(s) will apply the law of New York.  The arbitrator(s) will only have the authority to award actual money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the date due) and, except with respect to a breach or nonperformance of any provision of this Agreement relating to Confidential Information, the arbitrator(s) will not have the authority to award indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, special, punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a party’s compensatory damages, and the parties expressly waive any claimed right to such damages.  Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be enforced in any court having competent jurisdiction thereof, subject only to revocation on grounds of fraud or clear bias on the part of the arbitrator(s).  The arbitration will be of each applicable party’s individual claims only, and no claim of any other party will be subject to arbitration in such proceeding.  The costs and expenses of the arbitration, but not the costs and expenses of the parties, will be shared equally by the parties.  If a party fails to proceed with arbitration, unsuccessfully challenges the arbitration award, or fails to comply with the arbitration award, the other party is entitled to costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, for having to compel arbitration or defend or enforce the award.  Except as otherwise required by law, the parties and the arbitrator(s) will maintain as confidential all information or documents obtained during the arbitration process, including the resolution of the dispute.  Judgment on the award granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the parties or any of their respective assets.  The parties knowingly and voluntarily waive their rights to have their dispute tried and adjudicated by a judge and jury except as expressly provided herein.

 

(b)  In the event of a dispute arising out of or relating to a matter that is the subject of Section 3.2(f)(ii), such dispute shall be finally settled by arbitration under the then current expedited procedures applicable to the then current Rules as such Rules and procedures may be modified by this Section 10.2(b).  Upon receipt of an Arbitration Request by either party, the parties shall promptly negotiate in good faith to appoint a mutually acceptable independent person, with scientific, technical and regulatory experience necessary to resolve such dispute (“ Expert ”).  If the parties are not able to agree within five (5) Business Days after the receipt by a party of the Arbitration Request, the AAA shall be responsible for selecting an Expert within ten (10) Business Days of being approached by a party.  The fees and costs of the Expert and the AAA, if applicable, shall be shared equally by the parties.  The arbitration shall be held in

 

17



 

New York, New York, unless the parties agree otherwise or the selection of the Expert requires otherwise.  Within five (5) Business Days after the designation of the Expert, the parties shall each simultaneously submit to the Expert and one another a written statement of their respective positions on such disagreement.  Each party shall have fifteen (15) Business Days from receipt of the other party’s submission to submit to the Expert and the other party a written response thereto, which shall include any scientific, technical and regulatory information in support thereof.  The Expert shall have the right to meet with the parties, either alone or together, as necessary to make a determination.  No later than thirty (30) Business Days after the designation of the Expert, the Expert shall make a determination by selecting the resolution proposed by one of the parties that the Expert deems as a whole to be the most fair and reasonable to the parties in light of the totality of the circumstances.  The Expert shall provide the parties with a written statement setting forth the basis of the determination in connection therewith.  The decision of the Expert shall be final and conclusive.  The costs and expenses of the arbitration, but not the costs and expenses of the parties, will be shared equally by the parties.  If a party fails to proceed with arbitration, unsuccessfully challenges the arbitration award, or fails to comply with the arbitration award, the other party is entitled to costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, for having to compel arbitration or defend or enforce the award.  Except as otherwise required by law, the parties and the Expert will maintain as confidential all information or documents obtained during the arbitration process, including the resolution of the dispute.  Judgment on the award granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the parties or any of their respective assets.  The parties knowingly and voluntarily waive their rights to have their dispute tried and adjudicated by a judge and jury except as expressly provided herein.

 

(c)  The provisions of Section 10.2(a)-(b) will not apply to any claim or controversy involving infringement or misappropriation of any Intellectual Property Right of a party.  Nothing in this Section 10.2 will prevent a party from resorting to judicial proceedings if:  (i) interim relief from a court is necessary to prevent serious and irreparable injury to such party; or (ii) litigation is required to be filed prior to the running of the applicable statute of limitations.  The use of any alternative dispute resolution procedure will not be construed under the doctrine of latches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either party.

Purchase of Forteo

 

Not included( 1)

 


(1) It is understood and agreed that Radius shall as part of the “Purchase of Forteo” obligations cause the supplier of the Forteo product (Pharmarama International Limited) to enter into a purchase agreement with NB that includes delivery by Pharmarama DDP to the Aptuit Ltd. facility in Oxford United Kingdom (“ UK ”) for packaging,  [*].

 

Payment Schedule

 

(a)  A portion of the purchase price for the Services shall be paid in cash and the balance shall be paid by issuance to NB of shares of Radius Series A-6 Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value, at a price of $0.01 per share.  The cash payment portion of the purchase price shall be subject to this Work Statement NB-1 and the Agreement; the stock issuance portion of the purchase price shall be made pursuant to a Stock Issuance Agreement (the “ Stock Issuance Agreement ”).

 

(2)  The cash payment portion of the purchase price is comprised of a portion denominated in EURO and a portion denominated in U.S. Dollars as noted in the cost proposal set forth above.  The EURO portion is €35,553,732  and the U.S. Dollar portion is $2,605,885.  This pricing is based upon 2,400 study subjects randomized and a 35% screen-failure rate after the Patient Informed Consent has been signed and a 15% drop-out rate and a pro rata adjustment to pricing based upon the actual number of study subjects that are not the subject of screen-failure and the actual clinical study activities that are completed prior to drop-out for study subjects that drop-out.  Radius shall pay the EURO denominated portion of the purchase price and the U.S. Dollar portion of the purchase price separately in the applicable currency as set forth in Paragraphs (3)-(9).

 

(3)  Radius has entered into a Letter of Intent dated September 3, 2010 with NB pursuant to which Radius has funded an aggregate $1,500,000.00 of Radius’ aggregate cash payment obligations to NB in respect of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1.  On the Effective Date, Radius will pay NB a non-refundable cash fee of €5,649,144.20, representing 15.889% of Radius’ aggregate cash payment obligation to NB for the EURO denominated portion of the clinical study, which amount shall be reduced by the aggregate $2,250,000.00 payment previously provided by Radius under the Letter of Intent and the two extensions to such Letter of Intent described below, using the exchange rate for buying EUROs with U.S. Dollars set forth in the Wall Street Journal (Online Edition) Market Data Center at http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/marketsdata.html on the date(s) each portion of such aggregate $2,250,000.00 payment

Attachment 2, Attachment B-2



 

was made.  The initial $500,000 portion was paid September 8, 2010 and the credit for such payment will use the exchange rate for that date (0.7865) to convert U.S. Dollars to EUROS; the second $500,000 portion was paid October 19, 2010 and the credit for such payment will use the exchange rate for that date (0.7283) to convert U.S. Dollars to EUROS.  Radius and NB entered into an extension of the Letter of Intent on December 15, 2010 pursuant to which Radius paid an additional $500,000 on December 19, 2010 and the credit for such payment will use the exchange rate for December 17 (0.7584) to convert U.S. Dollars to EUROS.  Radius and NB entered into a second extension of the Letter of Intent on January 31, 2011 pursuant to which Radius paid an additional $750,000 on February 3, 2011 and the credit for such payment will use the exchange rate for February 3 (0.7334) to convert U.S. Dollars to EUROS.

 

In addition, on the Effective Date, Radius shall also pay NB or its designee a non-refundable cash fee of $260,589 representing 10% of Radius’ aggregate cash obligation to NB for the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1.

 

(4)  Thereafter, Radius will pay NB on a calendar monthly basis commencing with the month in which the first subject is enrolled in the clinical study and ending the month that an aggregate 2,400 subjects have been enrolled in the clinical study (“ First Monthly Amount ”) at the rate of €[*] per randomized subject enrolled in the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1 for the EURO denominated portion of the clinical study and at the rate of $[*] per randomized subject enrolled in the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1 for the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the clinical study.  These amounts represent 33.752% of Radius’ aggregate cash payment obligation to NB in respect of the EURO denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1 and 7% of the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1.

 

(5)  Radius will thereafter pay NB €[*] per month for the first [*] ([*]) months after patient randomization is completed (“ Second Monthly Amount ”) and €[*] per month for the next [*] ([*]) months after patient randomization is completed (“ Third Monthly Amount ”) for the EURO denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1. Radius shall also thereafter pay NB or its designee in respect of the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1 a Second Monthly Amount equal to $[*] per month and a Third Monthly Amount equal to $[*] per month during the periods when the Second Monthly Amount and the Third Monthly Amount, as applicable, is payable.

 

Payment of each installment of the Second Monthly Amount and the Third Monthly Amount shall be calculated based upon the estimated time that will be required to complete the clinical study (following enrollment of the first study subject) and lock the study database and transfer the study database to Radius.  The parties, acting through the Project Committee will evaluate the study timeline and adjust the Second Monthly Amounts and the Third Monthly Amounts to account for delays or accelerations in the performance of the clinical study.

 

(6)   Each Second Monthly Amount and Third Monthly Amount payment due NB shall be determined by subtracting payments (if any) previously made pursuant to the Second Monthly Amount and the Third Monthly Amount from €[*] (in the case of the EURO denominated portion of the clinical study) or from $[*] (in the case of the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the clinical study) and then dividing that number by the number of months the Project Committee then determines it will take to complete the clinical study that is the subject of this Work Statement NB-1 and lock the study database and transfer the study database to Radius.

 

(7)  On a monthly basis, beginning with the month in which the last subject is enrolled in the clinical study that is the subject of this Work Statement NB-1, Radius shall request an update from the Project Committee with respect to the projected timeline of the clinical study that is the subject to Work Statement NB-1 and based upon the update provided by the Project Committee, Radius shall calculate the payment due NB using the formula set forth in Paragraph (6) and make payment to NB in accordance with Section 4.3 of the Agreement.

 

(8)  The Second Monthly Amount and the Third Monthly Amount represent, respectively, 16.876% of Radius’ aggregate cash payment obligation to NB in respect of the EURO denominated portion of the  clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1 and, respectively, 16% and 40% of the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the  clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1.

Attachment 2, Attachment B-3



 

(9)  The balance of Radius’ aggregate cash payment obligation to NB in respect of the Euro denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1, (€[*] based on 2,400 patients randomized and a 35% screen-failure rate after the Patient Informed Consent has been signed and a 15% drop-out rate and a pro rata adjustment to pricing based upon the actual number of study subjects that are not the subject of screen-failure and  the actual clinical study activities that are completed prior to drop-out for study subjects that drop-out) shall be paid in two equal installments of €[*]. The balance of Radius’ aggregate cash payment obligation to NB in respect of the U.S. Dollar denominated portion of the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1, ($[*] based on 2,400 patients randomized and a 35% screen-failure rate after the Patient Informed Consent has been signed and a 15% drop-out rate and a pro rata adjustment to pricing based upon the actual number of study subjects that are not the subject of screen-failure and the actual clinical study activities that are completed prior to drop-out for study subjects that drop-out) shall be paid in two equal installments of $[*].  The  first installment of each payment will be due and payable to NB when the study database for the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1 is locked and transferred to Radius; the second installment is due and payable upon the earlier of:  (i) acceptance of the Final Tables Listings and Figures for the clinical study that is the subject of Work Statement NB-1; or (ii) eight weeks after the database has been locked and delivered to Radius; provided that Radius shall not be required to accept the Final Tables Listings and Figures if they do not conform to the specifications set forth in the Protocol for Work Statement NB-1 or embody data that is scientifically inconsistent and merit, in Radius’ reasonable opinion, a review of clinical study site records for such clinical study purposes of confirming certain aspects of the underlying clinical study data and results as reported to the clinical study database (each, a “ Nonconformity ”).  If Radius identifies a Nonconformity prior to the expiration of the 8-week period specified in Paragraph (f)(ii), Radius shall deliver notice to NB of such Nonconformity specifying the steps that Radius believes are necessary to resolve such Nonconformity and bring the Final Tables Listings and Figures into conformity.  Upon receipt of such notice, NB shall take appropriate steps to investigate and resolve the Nonconformity and the 8-week period shall be extended day-for-day while NB investigates the Nonconformity and either updates the clinical study database and redelivers it to Radius or provides Radius with a report detailing the results of NB’s investigation of the Nonconformity and indicating why the Nonconformity does not require that the clinical study database be updated.

PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS

 

·               Title:      A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Comparative Phase 3 Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of BA058 for Injection for Prevention of Fracture in Ambulatory Postmenopausal Women with Severe Osteoporosis and at Risk of Fracture

·               Protocol Number:  BA058-05-003

·               Phase:  3

·               Test Drug:  BA058 for Injection 80 µg

·               Study Objectives:

 

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of BA058 for Injection 80 µg when compared to a matching Placebo for prevention of vertebral fracture in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis.  Patients, investigators and independent assessors will be blinded as to treatment for that outcome.  The secondary outcomes, also double-blind, of this study are to determine the safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg when compared to Placebo for prevention of non-vertebral fractures and for change in vertical height.  Additional key secondary efficacy outcomes include bone mineral density of spine, hip and femoral neck and hypercalcemia when compared to teriparatide (Forteo ® /Forsteo ® , Eli Lilly and Co.), which will be assessor-blind.

 

The specific objectives of this study are to:

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on reduction of vertebral fracture incidence in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis when compared with Placebo.

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on lumbar spine, hip, and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis when compared to teriparatide.

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on reduction of non-vertebral fracture incidence in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis when compared with Placebo.

 

·                   Determine the overall safety and tolerability of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg, and specifically the number of patients with hypercalcemic events, in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis when compared to teriparatide and Placebo.

 

·                   Provide additional evidence of bone safety through histomorphometric assessment of bone biopsy samples in a randomized subset of patients from the BA058 80 µg and Placebo groups.

 

·                   Provide additional evidence of renal safety through radiological assessment by CT scan of a randomized subset of patients from the BA058 80 µg, Placebo and teriparatide groups.

 

·               Study Population:

 

Inclusion Criteria:

 

Otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal ( > 5 years) women from 50 to 85 years of age (inclusive) who meet the study entry criteria and have provided written informed consent are eligible for the study.  The women are to have a BMD T-score <  -2.5 and > -5.0 at the lumbar spine or hip (femoral neck) by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and radiological evidence of 2 or more mild or one or more moderate lumbar or thoracic vertebral fractures, or history of low trauma forearm, humerus, sacral, pelvic, hip, femoral, or tibial fracture within the past 5 years.  Postmenopausal women older than 65 who meet the above fracture criteria but have a T-score <  -2.0 and > -5.0 may be enrolled.  Women older than 65 who do not meet the fracture criteria may also be enrolled if their T-score is < -3.0 and > -5.0.

 

All patients are to be in good general health as determined by medical history, physical examination (including vital signs) and clinical laboratory testing.  Serum calcium, PTH(1-84), serum phosphorus and serum alkaline

phosphatase values must be within the normal range during the Screening Period.  Serum 25-hydroxy Vitamin D must be above 15 ng/mL and within 3 times the upper normal range to be eligible for enrollment.  The resting 12-lead ECG obtained during screening should have no clinically significant abnormality and a QTc (Bazett’s correction) of < 470 msec.  Patients with more than four mild or moderate fractures, or any severe fractures, will be excluded from the study.  In addition, patients with fewer than 2 evaluable lumbar vertebrae or patients with unevaluable hip BMD will be excluded from the study.

 

Patients with unexplained elevation of serum alkaline phosphatase, with a history of Paget’s disease, of any cancer within the past 5 years other than basal cell or squamous cancer of the skin, will be ineligible for enrollment.  Also, patients with a history of Cushing’s disease, hyperthyroidism, hypo- or hyperparathyroidism or malabsorptive syndromes within the past year are also ineligible for enrollment.  Patients who have ever received treatment with a PTH or PTHrP drug will be excluded.  Treatment with bisphosphonates, fluoride or strontium in the past 5 years, or treatment with androgens, other anabolic steroids, corticosteroids or selective estrogen receptor modulators within the past 12 months will also exclude patients from enrollment. Patients who had a short course of bisphosphonate treatment (3 months or less) and were intolerant of the treatment may be considered for study participation.  Estrogens administered as hormone replacement therapy (HRT), with or without progestins, are not exclusionary. Patients who have participated in a clinical study of any novel unapproved medication in the past 12 months will also be excluded from participation.

 

The specific inclusion and exclusion criteria are described in Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of the protocol, respectively.

 

·               Study Design and Methodology:

 

Number of Patients

 

A total of 2400 patients are planned to be enrolled in the study in 11 medical centers.

 

Design

 

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, comparative Phase 3, multicenter international study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BA058 80 µg in the prevention of fracture in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis.

 

A total of 2400 eligible patients will be randomized equally to receive one of the following: BA058 80 µg, a matching Placebo, or teriparatide 20 µg for 18 months.  Study drug will be blinded to patients and medical personnel until the randomization process is completed.  Treatment with BA058 80 µg or Placebo will remain blinded to all parties throughout the study.  As a proprietary prefilled drug and device combination marketed product, teriparatide cannot be repackaged and blinded.  Study medication will be self-administered daily by SC injection for a maximum of 18 months.  Patients unable to self-administer drug may be injected by a third party after appropriate training of that person by the study site personnel.

 

The dosages of study medications and the number of patients to be enrolled are shown below:

Study Visits

 

Upon signing of the informed consent, patients will enter a 1-4 week period of screening and prestudy training.  Patients will be trained on self-administration of study drug and on recording of medication usage and local tolerance.  After eligibility is assessed during the Screening period, a one week Pretreatment period is used to collect baseline data.  Once enrolled, patients will return to their study center for safety and efficacy assessments at baseline (Day 1) and 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 18 months, and at any other time as warranted by safety, efficacy or compliance concerns.  A final study visit is planned one month after the last dose of study drug.

Procedures and Assessments

 

Efficacy

 

The primary efficacy endpoint will be the number of BA058-treated patients showing new vertebral fractures at End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.  New incident vertebral fractures will be evaluated according to the method of Genant (1).  Efficacy assessments will therefore include documentation of the incidence of clinical and radiographic fractures of the lumbar and thoracic spine.  Patients will undergo baseline and End-of-Treatment antero-posterior and lateral radiographs of the lumbar and thoracic spine.  All radiographs will be viewed and assessed by a blinded, independent assessor (radiologist) on the basis of existing baseline and study-acquired vertebral deformity, and fracture will be assessed according to a set of pre-determined criteria.  A second blinded radiologist will review the assessment of the first reviewer for all patient radiographs in which an incident fracture has been identified.  In the case of any disagreement, a third consensus assessment will be made to adjudicate the incident fracture.  A standardized graded scale of severity of the vertebral deformity will be evaluated according to the method of Genant (1).

 

Secondary efficacy parameters will also include reduction in the incidence of non-vertebral fractures (wrist, hip, rib, etc.) and reduction in moderate and severe vertebral fractures.  Clinical fracture occurring de novo at these anatomical sites during the study will also be assessed and analyzed.  Other secondary efficacy endpoints will include changes in BMD of spine, hip, and femoral neck, and wrist from baseline to end-of-treatment as assessed by DXA.  Patients will undergo BMD assessments at Screening (spine and hip; all patients), at Day 1 (wrist; in a subset of patients), and at Months 6, 12 and 18 (End-of-Treatment) of study participation.  Any patient who shows a continuing significant deterioration (>7%) of BMD at spine or hip will have the assessment repeated and, if confirmed, will be discontinued from the study.  Patients sustaining an incident vertebral or non-vertebral fragility fracture will be informed of the finding and offered the opportunity to remain in or discontinue from the study.

 

Additional secondary endpoints will include change in standing height and changes in serum bone markers across treatment, such as PINP, osteocalcin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase.  Serum C-telopeptides (CTX), a marker of bone resorption and collagen breakdown, will be measured and reported.  Bone markers will be assessed Pretreatment and at Months 6, 12 and 18 (End-of-Treatment).  Urine samples will be collected for the measurement of calcium and creatinine to determine the Calcium:Creatinine ratio.  The Calcium:Creatinine ratio will be measured at each visit during the Treatment Period.  The frequency of hypercalcemia across treatment groups will also be assessed.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-5



 

Patients who discontinue study participation prematurely will undergo End-of-Treatment and End-of-Study assessments once their discontinuation is confirmed.

 

Safety

 

Safety evaluations to be performed will include physical examinations, vital signs, 12-lead ECGs, clinical laboratory tests, and monitoring and recording of adverse events.  Specific safety assessments will include post-dose (4 hours) determination of serum calcium, determination of Creatinine Clearance, post-dose ECG assessments at selected visits, and assessments of postural hypotension (60 minutes post-dose) at selected clinic visits.

 

The incidence and severity of adverse events by dose and cumulative dose and pathological changes in hematology, chemistry and urinalysis data will be recorded and summarized.  Changes in physical examination (including height), vital signs, ECG and clinical laboratory tests will be descriptively summarized.  Shift frequencies will be summarized for clinical laboratory tests.

 

Injection sites will be graded to assess local tolerance to study medication.

 

ECG and safety laboratory assessments will be performed at all scheduled visits and at any unscheduled visit as deemed necessary by the Investigator.  QT interval assessments will be performed for all study subjects across the Treatment Period.

 

Bone biopsy of the iliac crest will be performed in a subset of patients receiving BA058 80 µg and Placebo (up to 100 per group to obtain 75 evaluable biopsies per treatment group) between Visits 8 and 9 for assessment of quantitative bone histomorphometry using a duel-labeling procedure.  All bone biopsies will be read blinded to treatment at a central specialized facility.

 

A further subset of patients, 100 per treatment group in all 3 groups, will undergo a renal CT scan at the end of the study, which will also be read (blinded as to treatment) centrally, to assess the renal parenchyma and collecting system.

 

Study safety will be monitored by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board.

 

Complete details of the study assessments are provided in Section 7.0, in the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (Appendix 14.1) and in the Suggested Schedule of Events and Procedures by Study Visit (Appendix 14.2).

 

Statistical Considerations:

 

Sample Size

 

A sample size of 622 patients per treatment arm provides 90% power at a two-sided alpha of 0.05 to detect a superiority difference of 4% between placebo patients and BA058 80 µg for injection-treated patients on vertebral fracture incidence.  To ensure an evaluable population of 622 patients, an overall sample size of 800 patients per treatment arm will be recruited.  For statistically powered secondary endpoints the sample size will have greater than 90% power at an alpha of 0.05 to detect a 1.15%, 2.45%, and 2.00% difference for spine, hip, and femoral neck BMD, respectively, between BA058 and teriparatide.  The study sample size will also provide more than 90% power to detect differences between BA058 and teriparatide in the number of patients reporting one or more events of hypercalcemia.

 

Baseline Comparisons

 

Baseline characteristics, medical history, physical examination, vital signs and ECG, will be summarized using standard descriptive statistics by treatment group. Specific demographic and baseline parameters will be tested for overall agreement across treatment groups using one-way ANOVA or Chi-square tests as appropriate for the type of data.

 

Efficacy Analyses

 

The primary efficacy endpoint will be the number of BA058-treated patients showing new vertebral fractures at End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-6



 

Key secondary endpoints that will be statistically analyzed include change in BMD (spine, hip, and femoral neck) and differences in the number of patients reporting one or more events of hypercalcemia from baseline to End-of-Treatment for BA058 80 µg when compared to teriparatide.  Additional secondary efficacy endpoints will include the change in vertical height in BA058 80 µg patients when compared to Placebo and the incidence of BA058 80 µg patients with new non-vertebral fractures from baseline to End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.  Severity of vertebral fractures, fracture incidence over time by treatment group, and new vertebral fractures in teriparatide patients compared to Placebo will also be assessed.

 

Other efficacy endpoints will include change in wrist BMD in BA058-treated patients, and changes in serum PINP, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and CTX across treatment.

 

Population PK/PD Analysis

 

Samples for measurement of serum levels of BA058 will be taken to evaluate population PK effects on demographics, efficacy, and safety.

 

Safety Analysis

 

All patients who receive at least one dose of study medication will be included in the safety analysis that will be performed on the following parameters:

 

Incidence and severity of AEs; dose and cumulative dose at which the AE occurred.

 

Pathological changes in hematology, chemistry and urinalysis data based on normal ranges supplied by the clinical laboratory.

 

Frequency of hypercalcemia will also be compared across treatment groups.

 

Bone histomorphometry as assessed by bone biopsy at End-of-Treatment in a randomized subset of BA058 and Placebo patients.

 

Renal safety as assessed at End-of-Treatment by renal CT scan in a randomized subset of patients in all treatment groups.

 

All AEs collected prior to first injection will be separately summarized in a fashion similar to the TEAEs.

 

Treatments Administered:

 

BA058 80 µg Drug Product for Injection (2.0 mg/mL BA058 in 5 mg/mL tri-hydrate sodium acetate and 5mg/mL of phenol (preservative) adjusted at pH 5.1 with acetic acid) will be supplied as a liquid in a 1.5 mL Type 1 glass cartridge and is stored refrigerated at 5 ± 3ºC.  The multi-dose cartridge is designed to deliver a dose of 80 µg of BA058 in 40 µL of fluid or a half dose of 40 µg of BA058 in 20 µL of fluid when inserted into the Pen Injector device.  Each cartridge contains enough study medication to deliver the required daily dose for 30 days.  Patients will be provided with a sufficient number of cartridges to continue on treatment until the next scheduled clinic visit.  Study medication should be stored in refrigerated conditions (2-8 ºC) until dispensed for use.  In-use storage may be at room temperature, up to 25 ºC for 30 days.

 

Placebo is formulated similarly but without active BA058 and will be similarly supplied as a liquid in a 1.5 mL Type 1 glass cartridge and is stored refrigerated at 5 ± 3ºC.  The multi-dose cartridge is designed to deliver a dose of Placebo in 40 µL of fluid when inserted into the Pen Injector device.  Each cartridge contains enough study medication to deliver the required daily dose for 30 days.  Storage and dispensing conditions will match those of active study drug.

 

Teriparatide (rDNA origin) injection (250 µg/mL) will be supplied in multi-dose disposable pens containing a glass cartridge.  Each pen contains enough study medication to deliver the required daily dose for 28 days.  Study medication should be stored in refrigerated conditions (2-8 ºC) until dispensed for use.  In use storage should also be in refrigerated conditions, 2-8 ºC.

 

Calcium (500—1000 mg) and Vitamin D (400—800 IU) supplements will be provided at the study site.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-7



 

Duration of Subject Participation:

 

The maximum total duration of study participation for an individual patient is approximately 20 months from the initial screening visit to the completion of final study evaluations.  Patients will complete screening and study-specific procedures within 4 weeks.  After completion of the Screening and Pretreatment Periods, patients will be randomized and will receive the first dose of study medication on Day 1 of the Treatment Period.  The Treatment Period will be a maximum of 18 months with daily SC dosing.  After completion of dosing, patients will enter the Follow-up Period for 1 month.  The End-of-Study Visit will be scheduled at the end of the Follow-up Period and patients will be terminated from the study.

 

Post-study Treatments and Assessments:

 

Placebo Patients

 

Placebo patients who complete 18 months of study participation or experience a clinical fracture will be given the opportunity to receive treatment with a bisphosphonate for 24 months.  Patients will receive standard-of-care management including assessment of BMD during this period.

 

BA058 Patients

 

BA058 patients who complete 18-months of study participation will be given the opportunity to receive an additional 6 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg, to assess the safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg over,a total of 24 months of treatment.  On completion of BA058 treatment, patients will be assessed for maintenance of BMD benefit over 12 months post-treatment or will receive a bisphosphonate to assess the benefit of sequential treatment with bisphosphonate after BA058, for 12 months.

 

Teriparatide Patients

 

There will be no post-study treatments or assessments for patients completing treatment with teriparatide.

INTRODUCTION

 

Background Information

 

Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue which leads to enhanced fragility and increased risk of fractures (2).  The common therapeutic approach is to decrease bone loss with the use of antiresorptive agents such as estrogens, selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) and bisphosphonates (3).  However, when osteoporosis is severe, these classes of pharmacological agents provide only a moderate rate of return of bone mass and take a number of years to effect their fracture reduction benefit.  A preferable approach is to more rapidly reduce fracture risk by inducing a faster and greater return of bone mass through use of bone anabolic agents.  To date, only one class of bone anabolic drugs, PTH and its analogs, has been approved to prevent fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who are at risk of fracture.  PTHrP, and specifically BA058, offers another and potentially better therapeutic option than PTH in this indication and shows particular potential for reversing bone loss at the hip, the site of the most debilitating osteoporotic fractures in elderly women.

 

Human parathyroid hormone (hPTH) is a naturally occurring 84-amino acid hormone and is primarily a regulator of calcium homeostasis (4).  PTH acts directly on bone to increase calcium resorption, on the gastrointestinal system to increase calcium absorption, and on the kidney to increase calcium reabsorption and 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D production.  In turn, hPTH levels are tightly regulated by Calcium and Vitamin D levels.  When present at high doses or when administered in a continuous manner, hPTH has a catabolic effect on the skeleton through its ability to activate and increase osteoclast number which leads to increased serum calcium levels and decreased bone mass in humans (5).  However, when given intermittently at low doses, hPTH has a well-documented anabolic effect on bone, and can increase bone mineral density (BMD) in a number of intact animal models as well as in osteoporotic patients (6).

 

The 34-amino acid terminal fragment of hPTH, known as hPTH(1-34), appears to contain the full biological activity of native PTH(1-84) with regard to restoration of bone (7).  Teriparatide (Forteo ® /Forsteo ® ; Eli Lilly and Co., Indianapolis, Indiana), a recombinant human PTH (rhPTH(1-34)), was approved by FDA in 2002 as a new therapy for osteoporosis.  Teriparatide can stimulate bone formation, increase bone mass and reduce the risk of fractures in both animals and humans (8).

 

Human PTH-related peptide (hPTHrP) is a member of the PTH family that is secreted endogenously and which is partially homologous with the sequence of hPTH at the amino-terminus, where 8 of the first 13 amino acids are identical in both peptides (9).  Different to hPTH, PTHrP is produced by osteoblasts (10) and, like hPTH, hPTHrP is also involved in calcium homeostasis (9) but to a lesser degree than PTH.  PTHrP has also been shown to have an important role in normal skeletal development (11), and has been shown to restore bone mass in people when administered in an intermittent pattern (12).  When administered daily for three months by subcutaneous injection to women with severe postmenopausal

osteoporosis, PTHrP(1-36) in a dose of 6.6 µg/kg (approximately 400 µg/day) increased lumbar spine BMD by 4.7%, a value that was statistically different from placebo (1.4%).  In addition, there was no associated hypercalcemia reported and no evidence of bone resorption when assessed by changes in serum markers of bone resorption (12).

 

BA058 is a 34-amino acid analog of hPTHrP, with molecular modifications of specific amino acids.  BA058 is expected to have similar or greater efficacy in restoring BMD in individuals with osteoporosis than hPTH(1-34), but with less risk of causing hypercalcemia.  Initial in vitro and in vivo studies identified BA058 as displaying such properties (13-16).  Clinical evaluations have shown BA058 to be well tolerated and to have significant positive effect on bone formation.

 

Drug under Study

 

As noted above, BA058 is an analog of the first 34 amino acids of hPTHrP(1-34).  BA058 was originally discovered and developed by the Beaufour-Ipsen Pharma Group (Ipsen) under the names BIM44058 and BIM44058C.  Radius Health, Inc. (hereafter referred to as RADIUS) acquired the license for the compound and is developing BA058 to treat postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who are at high risk of fracture.

 

Nonclinical pharmacology and toxicology studies have demonstrated that BA058 is a potent and selective agonist of the human parathyroid hormone receptor 1 (hPTH1R).  It has significantly less calcium mobilizing activity at higher doses than the native hormone and is a potent anabolic agent capable of fully restoring BMD in ovariectomized, osteopenic rats.

 

Results from safety pharmacology studies indicate that BA058 is generally safe.  The subcutaneous bioavailability was estimated to be 33% after administration of a single dose of 10 µg/kg in rats.  Tachycardia and hypotension were observed in dogs following both intravenous and subcutaneous administrations, however such effects have not been observed in other species or in human studies.  Minor pharmacological effects (increased bone formation, transient slightly higher blood total calcium levels after dosing) were observed at low doses in the toxicology studies.  The No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) was 15, 25 and 25 µg/kg/day in rats in the 4-, 13, and 26-week studies, respectively, and 100, 50 and £ 10 µg/kg/day in monkeys in the 4-, 13- and 39-week studies, respectively.  No local clinical signs or microscopic findings were noted at the injection sites in rats and monkeys treated daily in the toxicity studies.  In the 39-week study, minimal to moderate mineralization of lung and kidney was observed at all doses evaluated.  There were slight but progressive and occasionally significant changes in blood parameters.  Significant hypercalcemia associated with premortem morbidity was also observed.  The repeated-dose studies revealed the presence of specific antibodies against BA058 in a proportion of animals tested, particularly following longer term exposure at higher doses, and more commonly in monkeys than in rats.  The presence of antibodies did not appear to neutralize the therapeutic effect of BA058.

 

To date, BA058 has been studied in single and multiple dose Phase 1 clinical trials in which BA058 was evaluated in healthy male and female subjects.  In addition, a Phase 2 dose

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-15



 

finding clinical study was performed in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis to evaluate a range of doses of BA058.

 

The Phase 1 program involved 3 studies, a single-dose PK and bioavailability clinical trial (Study 2-52-52127-001) that enrolled healthy male and female subjects > 55 years of age, a repeated dose 7-day PK/PD study (Study BA058-05-001) that enrolled 39 healthy postmenopausal women from 50 to 73 years of age, and Study BA058-05-001B, a second repeated dose 7-day PK/PD study that investigated a new liquid formulation of BA058 presented as a prefilled multi-dose cartridge for use in a pen injector device.  The single exposure PK study investigated subcutaneous doses of 5 m g to 120 m g.  The single exposure study determined that BA058 was well-tolerated up to 80 m g, was 100% bioavailable, had approximately dose-proportional kinetics, and had a half-life of approximately 2.25 hours.  The repeated dose studies determined that BA058 was well-tolerated up to 100 m g, had limited hypercalcemic effect, induced early changes in bone formation markers and that 100  m g was the maximal tolerated dose.  Cardiac safety monitoring was conducted for all subjects in all BA058 Phase 1 studies and no clinically significant findings were identified.

 

A Phase 2 dose-finding clinical trial (Study BA058-05-002) was conducted in four countries (the United States, Argentina, India, and the United Kingdom) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BA058 in women with osteoporosis (T-score £ -2.5).  This was a randomized, placebo- and comparator-controlled, parallel group dose-finding study of BA058 to evaluate the effects of daily SC injections of BA058 for six months in 225 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, subsequently extended to 12 months in a subset of patients.  Following enrollment, patients underwent a 4-week Pretreatment Period of Calcium and Vitamin D supplementation and instruction in study medication self-administration, at the end of which patients were randomized to daily SC self-administration of placebo, BA058 20 m g, 40  m g, 80  m g or teriparatide.

 

The study was powered for change from baseline in primary study endpoints: BMD (spine) by DXA, and change in anabolic bone markers (serum PINP, BSAP, and osteocalcin).  Other anatomical sites were also assessed by DXA for change in BMD and additional anabolic and resorptive bone markers were also assessed.  Routine clinical and laboratory safety assessments were employed with additional monitoring of cardiac safety, serum calcium levels and local tolerance assessment by patient diary.  Two hundred and seventy patients were enrolled into pretreatment, 222 patients were randomized and 221 received study drug.   One hundred and eighty-seven patients completed treatment and 155 patients were evaluable as the Per Protocol Population.  The age of the study population ranged from 54 to 84 years old (mean 65) and mean spinal T-score at screening was -2.9.

 

Mean percent changes in total analyzable BMD of the spine at Week 24 increased with BA058 dose (1.4%, 3.5%, 1.5%, and 2.9% in the placebo, BA058 20 m g, BA058 40  m g, and BA058 80  m g groups, respectively) for the Per Protocol Population.  The test for a linear trend (dose response) was statistically significant (p<0.001).  Mean percent change in the teriparatide group at this visit was similar to the placebo group.  The anabolic bone markers showed a similar statistically significant dose response.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-16



 

Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 164 (74%) of the 221 patients through the End-of-Study visit (Week 28) and were similar in number and profile across all treatment groups.  Treatment emergent and unrelated serious adverse events of bronchitis, ovarian cancer, and diverticulitis were reported in 3 patients (1%) overall in the placebo, 20  m g and 80  m g groups, respectively.

 

Serum calcium levels were measured pre- and post-dose at multiple times through the study and were higher throughout the study in the teriparatide study group.  Episodes of hypercalcemia (both above normal at any time or above the alert value) post-dose were more common in teriparatide patients.  Overall, 27% of patients treated with BA058 80 m g and 53% of patients treated with teriparatide had a serum calcium level above normal ( ³ 10.2 mg/mL) on one or more occasions, while the corresponding results for post-dose calcium values of ³ 10.2 mg/mL were 17% and 48%, respectively.  In addition, 18% of patients treated with BA058 80  m g and 40% of patients treated with teriparatide had a clinically significant elevation of serum calcium level ( ³ 10.5 mg/mL) on one or more occasions, while the corresponding results for post-dose calcium values of ³ 10.5 mg/mL were 11% and 40%, respectively.

 

Low titer anti-drug antibodies were reported in 17 patients after 6 months of BA058 treatment. Of the 17 positive patients, 1 was in the placebo group, 2 were in the BA058 20 µg group, 8 were in the BA058 40 µg group and 6 were in the BA058 80 µg group.  There were no associated safety events and no attenuation of treatment efficacy.  One antibody-positive patient in the BA058 for Injection 40 µg group was found to have evidence of neutralizing activity at 24 weeks.  The patient did not appear to have any attenuation of drug efficacy, having a 9.3% gain in total analyzable spine BMD at the Week 24 assessment.  Finally, there were no clinically significant changes on intensive cardiac safety assessments conducted in approximately 30% of patients.

 

Fifty-five patients continued into a second 6 months of treatment with their original treatment assignment; 48 of these patients completed the additional treatment period.  BMD continued to show time-dependent and dose-dependent increases.  At the end of study, final spinal BMD was approximately 50% greater in the BA058 80 µg dose group than teriparatide and hip and femoral neck BMD were approximately 100% greater than teriparatide.  The second six months of treatment did not uncover additional safety considerations; the overall percent of patients experiencing a TEAE over 48 weeks of study treatment was 81% as compared to 74% in the 24-week study exposure.  One additional unrelated SAE of bilateral crural hernia was reported in the second 24 weeks of study conduct in the BA058 80  m g group.

 

In conclusion, this study demonstrated that BA058 induces a substantial positive dose- and time-dependent change in BMD at both spine and hip in women with osteoporosis and achieves this benefit safely and with substantially less hypercalcemic effect than teriparatide.

 

Across the studies conducted with BA058, BA058-related AEs were generally mild and did not require discontinuation of treatment.  The most common AEs observed in patients were influenza, nasopharyngitis, bronchitis, headache, hypercalciuria, back pain and arthralgia.  Occasional events of changes in orthostatic blood pressure were noted but were mild or

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-17



 

moderate and did not appear to be dose related.  Reported local tolerance reactions were generally mild and resolved quickly, with redness being the most commonly reported symptom.  Elevated calcium levels were observed in a subset of patients to a lesser degree than that observed in patients treated with teriparatide.

 

According to the FDA-approved labeling for teriparatide, AEs reported in clinical trials were usually mild and generally did not require discontinuation of therapy.  The most commonly reported adverse events were pain, arthralgia, rhinitis, asthenia, nausea, dizziness, headache, hypertension, cough increased, pharyngitis, constipation, dyspepsia, and diarrhea.  Transient episodes of symptomatic orthostatic hypotension were observed infrequently.  In addition, teriparatide caused osteosarcomas in long-term toxicology studies in rats but the clinical relevance of this finding is unknown.

Study Rationale and Selection of Doses

 

Study Rationale

 

This study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, comparative Phase 3 study of BA058 in the treatment of postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis and at risk of fracture.  The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BA058 80 µg in the prevention of fracture in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis.  The dose chosen for this study is based on the safety and pharmacodynamic information derived in study BA058-05-002 according to predetermined criteria provided in the protocol.  The population to be studied is the recommended and intended population for treatment, postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis (17-19).  Daily SC doses of BA058 80 µg, Placebo or teriparatide 20 µg will be self-administered for 18 months (78 weeks) to patients randomized [equally] to one of 3 treatment groups.

 

Study Design and Rationale for Placebo

 

This study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, clinical trial.  There will be 3 treatment arms, one of which will be BA058 80 µg, one of which will be a placebo to BA058 80 µg, the study drug, and one of which will be teriparatide 20 µg.  Therefore, 2 of 3 patients treated will receive an active treatment.  All subjects, regardless of treatment assignment, will receive Calcium and Vitamin D supplements during the Pretreatment and Treatment Periods.

 

The study will be blinded up to the time of randomization and assignment of the patient to treatment.  On opening of the assigned treatment, although patients and study personnel will remain blinded to BA058 80 µg or Placebo, it will become apparent to them whether a BA058-based treatment or teriparatide has been assigned.  An independent blinded evaluator will review all study radiographs.  A second blinded evaluator will confirm all findings. A Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will monitor study safety.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-18


 

The total period of placebo exposure and therefore of potential delay of specific treatment is 18 months.  Placebo is the usual and recommended comparator for studies in this indication.  While the indication infers the prevention of fractures with treatment, the actual benefit is a reduction in fracture incidence in women at risk.  It is calculated that while fractures may occur in patients both on active treatment and Placebo, it is estimated that treatment will result in a relative reduction of fracture risk of approximately 60% over 18 months.

 

In the RADIUS Phase 2 study (Study BA058-05-002), patients randomized to placebo and supplemented with Calcium and Vitamin D over their 6-12 months of study participation demonstrated no overall reduction in spinal or hip BMD and reported no fractures while on study treatment.  In addition, all Placebo patients will be offered the opportunity to transition to an approved active treatment (a bisphosphonate) for 24 months on completion of 18 months of study participation or earlier if a clinical fracture occurs.

 

Study Population

 

The study population in this protocol is the population recommended by Regulatory Authorities (17-19) for the clinical evaluation of PTH and PTH-like drugs in this indication: postmenopausal women (50 to 85 years of age) who are more than 5 years post menopause and whose menopause has been confirmed by an elevated serum FSH and a BMD T-score of < -2.5 (2.5 SD below the population norm) and > -5.0 at the lumbar spine or hip (femoral neck) by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and radiological evidence of 2 or more mild or one or more moderate lumbar or thoracic vertebral fractures, or history of low trauma forearm, humerus, sacral, pelvic, hip, femoral, or tibial fracture within the past 5 years.  However, postmenopausal women older than 65 who meet the above fracture criteria but have a T-score <  -2.0 and > -5.0 may be enrolled.  In addition, women older than 65 who do not meet the fracture criteria may also be enrolled if their T-score is < -3.0 and > -5.0.  Women who are intolerant of bisphosphonates as outlined in exclusion criterion # 17 (Section 0) and meet the above criteria will also be allowed to enroll.

 

Based on midpoint demographics of the proposed study population, the anticipated 10-year fracture rate in Study BA058-05-003 is estimated to fall within the recommended ranges in the relevant guideline (CPMP/EWP/552/95 Rev.2) when calculated using the FRAX assessment tool (http://www.shef.ac.uk/FRAX/).

 

A sample size of 622 patients per treatment arm provides 90% power at a two-sided alpha of 0.05 to detect a difference of 4% between treatments, assuming a vertebral fracture rate of 7% in placebo patients and 3% in BA058 80 µg for injection-treated patients when the large scale approximation of the binomial method is employed.  This superiority assessment infers a relative risk reduction of 57% and presupposes the availability of a pretreatment and post-treatment radiological assessment.  To ensure a per protocol population of 622 patients, an overall sample size of 800 patients per treatment arm will be recruited, anticipating that approximately 20% of

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-19



 

patients may not have a second evaluable X-ray film available for analysis.  Prior studies have demonstrated that approximately 20% of enrolled patients drop out over the lengthy period of the study and a further proportion (10%) fail to provide an evaluable End-of-Treatment X-ray, therefore a sample size of 800 patients per arm is proposed.

 

Selection of Endpoints

 

Bone remodeling is a constant process in the adult human skeleton and maintains the integrity of the skeleton through a process of replacing old bone (resorption) with new bone formation (anabolism).  Both cortical and trabecular bone are involved in this process which needs to be in balance to maintain normal bone density and strength (20).  In childhood, the balance favors bone formation and, with aging, the process favors the resorptive component, causing bone loss.  Assessments of this balance of formation and resorption can be performed over the long-term by quantitative imaging of bone density.  Consequences of bone loss are commonly observed as fracture in a severe osteoporotic population.  An improvement in bone quality and quantity can reduce the risk of existing and incidental fracture.  Therefore, while earlier studies have demonstrated the benefit of BA058 for improvement in BMD in postmenopausal women, this study will assess the relative efficacy and safety of BA058 80 µg for prevention of new fractures in the same population but among the cohort of patients with a history of fracture, or those who are at an increased risk of fracture.  While all new fractures will be assessed, the relative short duration of treatment anticipated with BA058 is unlikely to yield definitive evidence of fracture prevention benefit at all anatomical sites, therefore the study is designed to identify a statistically significant benefit on vertebral fracture.  Non-vertebral fractures will be assessed as a secondary efficacy endpoint as will BMD changes by DXA at spine, hip and femoral neck as additional indices of bone anabolic benefit.

 

In addition to BMD by DXA, bone formation and resorption markers will also be assessed over time (21).  The rise in the markers of bone formation indicates restoration of lost bone, in particular the lost microarchitecture that places osteoporotic women at an increased risk for fracture.  Increases in the principal markers of bone formation: N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP),  osteocalcin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP) are accepted predictors of BMD change (21,22).  Serum C-telopeptides (CTX), a marker of bone resorption and collagen breakdown, will also be measured in this study.  Markers of anabolic effect and resorptive effect have become valuable tools in the management of osteoporosis since they can provide early information on potential treatment efficacy (23).

 

Selection of Dose

 

The BA058 dose to be studied in this Phase 3 trial has been previously studied in the Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials.  The dose chosen for this study is based on the safety and pharmacodynamic information derived in study BA058-05-002 according

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-20



 

to predetermined criteria provided in the protocol. The 80 µg dose was the maximum efficacy dose in the BA058 Phase 2 clinical program, was well tolerated (refer to Section 0) and demonstrated a significant increase in mean lumbar spine and mean femoral neck BMD when compared to Placebo.  This beneficial effect was achieved safely and with substantially less hypercalcemia than teriparatide.  Doses of up to 120 µg have been studied in the Phase 1 program and 100 µg has been determined to be the maximum tolerated dose, due to patients experiencing an increase in nausea and one discontinuation due to vomiting at the 120 µg dose.

 

BA058 80 µg per day will be dosed by SC self-administered injection.  In addition, a matching Placebo comparator will be employed in one treatment arm and teriparatide will be employed as a reference drug and comparator for secondary efficacy and safety outcomes.  All enrolled patients will also receive Calcium (500-1000 mg) and Vitamin D (400-800 IU) supplementation, or a dose to be determined by the Investigator and agreed by the Sponsor Medical Monitor, according to the patient’s need, from the Pretreatment Period until the end of the Treatment Period; it will be recommended to patients that they continue these supplements through the Follow-up Period.  The treatment regimens are summarized in the table in Section 0.

STUDY OBJECTIVES

 

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg when compared to Placebo for prevention of vertebral fracture in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis.  The secondary objectives of this study are to determine the safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg when compared to Placebo for prevention of non-vertebral fractures and for additional secondary efficacy outcomes (bone mineral density of spine, hip and femoral neck) and safety (hypercalcemia) when compared to teriparatide (Eli Lilly and Co.) in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis.

 

The specific objectives of this study are to:

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on reduction of vertebral fracture incidence in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis when compared with Placebo.

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis when compared to teriparatide.

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on reduction of non-vertebral fracture incidence in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis when compared with Placebo.

 

·                   Determine the overall safety and tolerability of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg, and specifically the number of patients with hypercalcemic events, in otherwise healthy postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis when compared to teriparatide and Placebo.

 

·                   Provide additional evidence of bone safety through histomorphometric assessment of bone biopsy samples in a subset of patients from the BA058 80 µg and Placebo groups.

 

·                   Provide additional evidence of renal safety through radiological assessment by CT scan of a subset of patients from the BA058 80 µg, Placebo and teriparatide groups.

INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN

 

Overall Design and Study Plan

 

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, comparative Phase 3, multicenter, international study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BA058 80 µg in the prevention of fracture in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis.  Women who are postmenopausal for > 5 years and are 50 years old to 85 years old (inclusive) with a bone mineral density T-score < -2.5 and > -5.0 at the lumbar spine or hip (femoral neck) by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and radiological evidence of 2 or more mild or one or more moderate lumbar or thoracic vertebral fractures, or history of low trauma forearm, humerus, sacral, pelvic, hip, femoral, or tibial fracture within the past 5 years may be enrolled.  Postmenopausal women older than 65 who meet the above fracture criteria but have a T-score <  -2.0 and > -5.0 may be enrolled.  Women older than 65 who do not meet the fracture criteria may also be enrolled if their T-score is < -3.0 and > -5.0.

 

The study consists of a Screening Period (1-3 weeks), a Pretreatment Period (1 week), a Treatment Period (78 weeks) and a Follow-up Period (4 weeks).  The duration and number of scheduled visits for each study period, and the study medications being administered in each study period are summarized in the table below.

The total duration of study participation for an individual patient is approximately 84-86 weeks from the initial screening visit to final study evaluations.  The total duration of dosing with active medication (or placebo) is 18 months (78 weeks).

 

The 18-month treatment study will be followed by an Extension Study, administered as a separate protocol. For patients who received BA058 80 µg in Study BA058-05-003, the study will be comprised of 2 periods: a 6—month extension of BA058 80 µg treatment to assess the continued safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg up to a total of 24 months.  The second study period will assess both the retention of benefit of BA058 over 12 months following withdrawal of treatment and will assess the benefit of adding a bisphosphonate to retain or augment BMD benefit on completion of a course of BA058 treatment. Patients will be randomized to one of these two treatment options on completion of BA058 exposure.

 

Placebo patients who complete 18 months of study participation or experience a clinical fracture will be given the opportunity to receive treatment with a bisphosphonate for 24 months.  Patients will receive standard-of-care management including assessment of BMD during this period.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-23



 

During the Screening Period, informed consent is obtained, eligibility for study entry is assessed and screening evaluations are performed, including baseline radiographic and DXA (hip and spine) assessments and baseline (routine) safety laboratory tests including serum biochemistry and hematology, and ECG.

 

Patients who are eligible for the study on the basis of screening evaluations will enter the Pretreatment Period of the study and will have baseline assessments of 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D, serum markers of bone metabolism and BA058 serum antibody levels.  Patients will be given daily Calcium and Vitamin D supplements, which will continue until the end of the Treatment Period; it will be recommended to patients that they continue these supplements through the Follow-up Period.  In addition, patients will undergo training in self-injection with the device to be employed for administration of BA058 80 µg or Placebo.  Patients subsequently randomized to treatment with teriparitide will be trained to use the teriparatide pen on Day 1 prior to the first injection.  Patients with medically significant abnormalities, or any patient who experiences a serious adverse event during the Screening or Pretreatment Periods, will be excluded from further study participation and treatment.  At the end of the Pretreatment Period, all patients who continue to meet the eligibility criteria for the study will enter the Treatment Period.

 

Patients who remain eligible for study participation will be randomized on Day 1 to treatment with one of the 3 treatment regimens shown below.

Treatment will be blinded to patients and investigators until the time of randomization and assignment of treatment.  Blinding will be maintained between BA058 80 µg and Placebo, but not with regard to teriparatide.

 

During the Treatment Period, patients will self-administer a single subcutaneous dose of study medication once a day.  Study procedures during this study period will include the collection of x-rays and DXA scans to evaluate fractures and of serum samples to assess serum markers of bone formation and resorption. A subset of patients in the BA058 80 µg and Placebo treatment groups (up to 100 per group to obtain 75 evaluable biopsies per treatment group) will be asked to undergo a bone biopsy at the end of the Treatment Period.  A further subset of patients in all 3 treatment groups (100 per treatment group) will be asked to undergo a renal CT scan at the end of the Treatment Period.  Serum samples for evaluation of study medication levels and anti-BA058 antibody formation will be drawn at specified visits during the Treatment Period.  Monitoring for adverse events, concomitant medications

and other safety assessments will be conducted throughout the course of the study (Pretreatment through End-of Study).

 

During the month after the last dose of study medication has been administered (Follow-up Period), it will be recommended to patients that they continue to take Calcium and Vitamin D supplements until they return for an End-of-Study Visit during which final clinical evaluations are performed.  Patients eligible to continue in the Extension Study will not undergo the End-of-Study Visit and will transition into the Extension Study during the Follow-up Period.

 

The maximum duration of study participation for an individual patient is estimated as 20 months (86 weeks) from the initial screening visit to the End-of-Study Visit.  Ten clinic visits are planned during the study; additional visits may be scheduled for clinical laboratory retesting or to obtain protocol-specified evaluations, if required.

 

Visit windows are allowed for flexibility in scheduling of study visits.  For initial visits which are scheduled at shorter intervals, a ± 1 or ± 3 day window is allowed.  For visits later in the study, which occur at longer intervals, a ± 7 day window is allowed.

 

Overall, the Screening and Pretreatment Periods must be completed within 28 days. The Treatment Period is 18 months.  Therefore, all patients are to receive 78 weeks of treatment.  The allowable windows for each study visit are provided in Appendix 14.1 and Appendix 0.

 

A brief summary of each study period is provided below.  For a summary of the study assessments to be performed, refer to Section 7.0 (Study Assessments) and to the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (Appendix 14.1).  A more detailed description of the study procedures on a by-visit basis is provided in Appendix 0 (Suggested Schedule of Events and Procedures by Study Visit).  A suggested order of procedure conduct is also provided in this schedule.

 

Screening Period

 

The purpose of the Screening Period is to verify that the patient’s medical history and current status are consistent with the inclusion and exclusion criteria (refer to Sections 0 and 0, respectively), to ascertain the patient’s willingness to participate in the study, to obtain written informed consent and to establish baselines for the physical and laboratory parameters to be followed for the duration of the study.  Patients will undergo baseline radiographic (lumbar and thoracic spine) and DXA (hip and lumbar spine) evaluations.  One clinic visit (Visit 1) is scheduled during the Screening Period (Study Days -28 to -8).

 

Prior to entering the Screening Period, each potential study participant will have a preliminary assessment of inclusion/exclusion criteria by the investigator.  A complete description of the study will provided to each potential participant and written informed consent will be obtained.  After informed consent is obtained, the patient is entered into the Screening Period and procedures are conducted according to the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (refer to Appendix 14.1).  Data should be recorded for patients who fail to complete screening or fail to meet study eligibility

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-25



 

criteria, including the reason for failure.  Patients who meet the study requirements based upon the Screening Period assessments will enter the Pretreatment Period.

 

Pretreatment Period

 

During the Pretreatment Period, one visit (Visit 2) is scheduled.  Patients will have baseline evaluations performed as outlined in the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (Appendix 14.1).

 

Patients will undergo baseline efficacy labs.  This study visit is to be scheduled within 7 days prior to the anticipated first day of treatment to allow confirmation of clinical laboratory test results and continued eligibility.  Patients who have experienced a serious adverse event during the Pretreatment Period will be terminated from the study.

 

Patients will undergo training on self-injection with the BA058 pen injector device in anticipation of treatment assignment.  Teriparatide is a marketed treatment; therefore, if the patient is subsequently randomized to teriparatide, training will be done with the teriparatide pen after randomization but before the first injection on Day 1 (Visit 3).  In addition, patients will be provided with daily Calcium (500—1000 mg) and Vitamin D (400—800 IU) supplementation, or a dose to be determined by Investigator and agreed upon by the Sponsor Medical Monitor, according to the patient’s need, which will be continued until the end of the Treatment Period; it will be recommended to patients that they continue these supplements through the Follow-up Period.  Patients will be instructed to take the supplements during the evening with or without food or as otherwise instructed by the Investigator.  Only the daily doses of Calcium and Vitamin D identified in the study protocol and determined by the Investigator may be taken during the study.  Any patient unable to take the preparation of Calcium and Vitamin D supplied may be recommended a different preparation of Calcium and Vitamin D by the Investigator as long as the same daily dose of both Calcium and Vitamin D is administered.

 

On completion of the Pretreatment period, eligible patients will enter the Treatment Period.

 

Treatment Period

 

The Treatment Period starts on Day 1 and continues for 18 months (78 weeks).  Patients are randomized to treatment on Day 1 and begin treatment the same day.  A subset of 300 patients per group will have a wrist DXA scan, which will occur after randomization to study drug and can occur anytime up to 24 hours after the first injection.  Those patients who are randomized to treatment with teriparatide will be trained with the teriparatide pen prior to the first injection on Day 1.

 

A total of 7 clinic visits are scheduled during the Treatment Period (Visits 3-9); the final Treatment Period visit will be scheduled to occur one day after the last dose of study medication.  Treatment will be daily, by self-injection.  During the first 30 days

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-26



 

of treatment patients will record drug dose, site of injection and any local reactions in a patient diary card.  Local tolerance will again be assessed during a second 30-day period.  This second diary will be provided to the patient either at the Month [9] (Visit 7) or will be forwarded later by mail, as appropriate, for completion by the patient during the 30 days of treatment in Month [11] of treatment.  The diary will be collected and reviewed with the patient for treatment compliance and adverse events at the Month [1] (Visit 4) and Month [12] (Visit 8) visits.  The patient will also maintain a diary throughout the study to summarize all study drug administration on a weekly basis.

 

Study patients will continue Calcium and Vitamin D supplementation during the Treatment Period.

 

Safety will be assessed at each study visit during the Treatment Period.  Efficacy assessments will include one evaluation by x-ray after 18 months of treatment (End-of-Treatment, Visit 9) and evaluations of BMD by DXA after [6], [12] and [18] months of treatment (Visits 6, 8 and 9).  Serum markers of bone metabolism, BA058 antibody and BA058 serum levels will also be measured during the Treatment Period.  Additionally, a subset of patients treated with BA058 80 µg or Placebo (up to [100] per group to obtain [75] evaluable biopsies per treatment group) will consent and have a bone biopsy performed between Visit 8 and the End-of-Treatment visit (Visit 9).  A further subset of 100 patients per treatment group (BA058 80 µg, Placebo and teriparatide) will undergo a renal CT scan at End-of-Treatment (Visit 9).  Procedures are to be performed according to the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (Appendix 14.1).

 

Patients who discontinue from the study prior to completing the Treatment Period will have all End-of-Treatment Visit evaluations performed as close to the time a patient is permanently discontinued from treatment as possible.  If possible, an End-of-Study Visit should also be scheduled one month after the last dose of study medication was administered.

 

Follow-up Period

 

The Follow-up Period is the one month interval after the last dose of study medication during which patients are followed for adverse events, including clinically significant laboratory abnormalities.  At the end of the Follow-up Period, patients will return to the clinic to undergo final study assessments (End-of-Study Visit; Visit 10).  Patients will be recommended to continue their Calcium and Vitamin D supplements until the End-of-Study Visit (Visit 10).

 

Any clinically significant adverse events occurring during the Follow-up Period will be assessed and recorded at the End-of-Study Visit.  Any adverse event or clinical laboratory abnormality recorded at this final visit will be monitored until it has resolved or has become chronic or stable.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-27



 

After the End-of-Study Visit, patients who received Placebo and completed 18 months of treatment, as well as patients who received Placebo or BA058 and were withdrawn due to incident vertebral or non-vertebral fragility fracture, will be given the opportunity to receive treatment with a bisphosphonate for 24 months.  Patients will receive standard-of-care management, including assessment of BMD benefit, during this period.

 

Patients eligible to continue in the Extension Study will not undergo the End-of-Study Visit and will transition into the Extension Study during the Follow-up Period.

 

SELECTION OF STUDY POPULATION

 

Number of Subjects

 

A sufficient number of otherwise healthy postmenopausal women aged 50 to 85 with osteoporosis will be screened so that 2400 eligible patients qualify for the study and are randomized.

 

For the purposes of this study, osteoporosis is defined as a BMD that is 2.5 standard deviations or more below the norm of the adult female population.  Postmenopausal women older than 65 who meet the fracture criteria but have a T-score < -2.0 and > -5.0 may be enrolled.  Additionally, women older than 65 who do not meet the fracture criteria may also be enrolled if their T-score is < -3.0 and > -5.0.

 

The specific inclusion and exclusion criteria for enrolling patients in this study are presented below in Sections 0 and 0, respectively.  Exceptions to these criteria should occur infrequently and should be discussed in advance and approved by the Sponsor Medical Monitor.  If the exception is agreed upon (rare) and a patient is allowed to participate, the Sponsor Medical Monitor will send confirmation to the study site acknowledging the exception.  The confirmation form or letter must be kept with the study records. Minor variations from the normal range in clinical laboratory test results (hematology, chemistry, and urinalysis) are acceptable if they are determined to be not medically significant by the Investigator in that they do not compromise patient safety or the assessment of efficacy and are documented as such.  Any unexpected clinically significant abnormality that would exclude the patient from participation in the study may be retested once.  If the parameter is normal on retest, the patient may be included in the study.

 

Inclusion Criteria

 

Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible to participate in this study.

 

1.                                        The patient is a healthy ambulatory postmenopausal woman from 50 to 85 years of age (inclusive) with osteoporosis.

 

2.                                        The patient has been postmenopausal for at least 5 years.  Postmenopausal status will be established by a history of amenorrhea for at least 5 years and by an elevated serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) value of >  30 IU/L.

Withdrawal of Patients from the Study

 

Patients will be informed that they have the right to withdraw from the study at any time for any reason without prejudice to their medical care.

 

The Investigator must withdraw patients from the study for the following reasons:

 

·              Continuing significant deterioration from baseline (>7%) of BMD at spine or hip (after confirmation of the finding)

 

·              Hypercalcemia or hypercalciuria as described in Section 4.6;

 

·              Treatment-related SAEs;

 

·              Severe hypersensitivity to BA058 or teriparatide;

 

·              Refusal of treatment;

 

·              Inability to complete study procedures;

 

·              Lost to follow-up.

 

The Investigator also has the right to withdraw patients from the study for any of the following reasons:

 

·              WHO Grade 3 or 4 adverse events [Refer to Appendix 0];

 

·              A complex of adverse events which, in the judgment of the Investigator justifies treatment cessation;

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-31



 

·              Serious intercurrent illness;

 

·              Non-compliance;

 

·              Protocol violations;

 

·              Administrative reasons.

 

Patients will be offered the opportunity to discontinue from the study for the following reasons after site consultation with the Study Medical Monitor:

 

·              Incident vertebral or non-vertebral fragility fracture

 

If a patient is withdrawn or discontinued from the study, the reason for withdrawal from the study is to be recorded in the source documents and on the case report form.  All patients withdrawn prior to completing the study should be encouraged to complete study procedures scheduled for the End-of-Treatment and End-of-Study Visits.  The End-of-Treatment procedures should be conducted as close to the time a patient is permanently discontinued from treatment.  If possible, the End-of-Study Visit should be scheduled one month after the last dose of study medication was administered.  All adverse events should be followed as described in Section 0.

 

Patients treated with BA058 or Placebo who withdraw due to incident vertebral or non-vertebral fragility fracture will be offered standard-of-care treatment with a bisphosphonate for 24 months.

 

Temporary Suspension of Treatment

 

The investigator has the right to suspend treatment with study medication for up to 14 continuous days or 28 cumulative days, without withdrawal of the patient from the study.  Reasons for temporary suspension of treatment may include a medical reason unrelated to an adverse event (e.g., a planned procedure), or important social or administrative events.  The reason for the suspension of treatment is to be documented in the case report form and in source documents.  Such patients should not be unblinded as to study medication. When treatment is restarted, the patient should resume treatment with the next scheduled dose and continue until the scheduled End-of-Treatment.

 

If the treatment suspension is due to a medical emergency and study medication needs to be unblinded, please refer to Section 0 for the procedures to be followed.

 

Response to Hypercalcemia or Hypercalciuria

 

Patients who develop hypercalcemia or hypercalciuria during the study are to have treatment with study medication reduced or study medication temporarily suspended as described below.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-32



 

Treatment Suspension due to Hypercalcemia

 

For any serum calcium value which is > 0.3 to 1.0 mg/dL above the upper limit of normal (ULN) (inclusive), confirm hypercalcemia by drawing a new serum sample as soon as the result is received:

 

·                   If the result of the retest remains within this range, discontinue Calcium and Vitamin D supplements for 7 days and perform a second retest.  The patient is to continue study medication administration during this interval.

 

·                   If the second retest is normal, the patient may continue on study and resume Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

·                   If the second retest is still elevated and the patient is receiving BA058/Placebo, the patient continues on study with a dose reduction for BA058 from 80 µg to 40 µg, but without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

·                   If the second retest is still elevated and the patient is receiving teriparatide, the patient is to be discontinued from the study.

 

·                   If the patient continues in the study (with Calcium and Vitamin D supplements) and has a repeat episode of a serum calcium value > 0.3 to 1.0 mg/dL above the ULN (inclusive), repeat the above assessment.

 

·                   If the patient again returns to normal when not taking Calcium and Vitamin D supplements, the patient may continue in the study without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

·                   If the hypercalcemia is confirmed in the absence of Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and the patient is receiving BA058/Placebo, the patient continues on study with a dose reduction for BA058 from 80 µg to 40 µg, but without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

·                   If the hypercalcemia is confirmed in the absence of Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and the patient is receiving teriparatide, the patient is to be discontinued from the study.

 

·                   If a BA058/Placebo patient continues on the study at the reduced dose of 40 µg (without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements) and has another episode of a serum calcium value > 0.3 to 1.0 mg/dL above the ULN (inclusive), perform a retest.

 

·                   If the retest is normal, the patient may continue on study at the reduced dose (without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements).

 

·                   If the retest is still elevated, the patient is to be discontinued from the study.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-33



 

For any serum calcium value >1.0 mg/dL above ULN:

 

·                   Discontinue Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and discontinue the study medication as soon as the result is received.  Confirm hypercalcemia by drawing a new serum sample as soon as possible.

 

·                   If the result of the retest remains >1.0 mg/dL above ULN, perform a second retest after 3 days without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and study medication.

 

·                   If the second retest is normal, the patient may continue on study and resume study medication and Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

·                   If the second retest remains elevated ( > 0.3 mg/dL above ULN) and the patient is receiving BA058/Placebo, the patient continues on study with a dose reduction for BA058 from 80 µg to 40 µg, but without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

·                   If the second retest remains elevated ( > 0.3 mg/dL above ULN) and the patient is receiving teriparatide, the patient is to be discontinued from the study.

 

·                   If a BA058/Placebo patient continues on the study at the reduced dose of 40 µg (without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements) and has another episode of a serum calcium value > 0.3 mg/dL above the ULN, perform a retest.

 

·                   If the retest is normal, the patient may continue on study at the reduced dose (without Calcium and Vitamin D supplements).

 

·                   If the retest is still elevated, the patient is to be discontinued from the study.

 

If the patient continues in the study and has a repeat episode of serum calcium >1.0 mg/dL above ULN, the patient is to be discontinued from the study.

 

Treatment Suspension due to Hypercalciuria

 

For a Calcium:Creatinine ratio >0.4 mg/mg, check the patient’s serum calcium and apply the algorithm outlined in Section 4.5.1 if Calcium is elevated.

 

If the Calcium:Creatinine ratio is >0.4 mg/mg and the serum calcium is normal:

 

·                   Discontinue Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and recheck urine Calcium:Creatinine values after 7 days.

 

·                   If the urine Calcium:Creatine ratio continues to be >0.4 mg/mg in the presence of normal serum calcium, the patient may continue in the study under medical supervision.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-34



 

·                   If the urine Calcium:Creatine ratio returns to normal, the patient may restart Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and continue in the study.

 

If the patient restarts the Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and hypercalciuria returns, Calcium and Vitamin D supplementation should be terminated.  The patient may continue in the study under medical supervision.

 

Therefore, patients with hypercalciuria will not be discontinued from the study in the absence of hypercalcemia except at the discretion of the Investigator.

 

Replacement of Patients

 

Patients who have been randomized into the study and subsequently withdraw or drop out of the study will not be replaced.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-35



 

STUDY TREATMENTS

 

Study Medications

 

All study medications are for investigational use only and are to be used only within the context of this study.  The Sponsor will supply all study medications.

 

BA058 80 µg, Placebo and Teriparatide

 

BA058 80 µg, Placebo and teriparatide will be supplied by the Sponsor.  Pen devices and needles for administration of study medications also will be supplied to the study sites.

 

BA058 80 µg for Injection:  Each multi-dose cartridge contains 2 mg/mL BA058 (free base) in 5 mg/mL tri-hydrate sodium acetate and 5 mg/mL of phenol (preservative) adjusted at pH 5.1 with acetic acid.  BA058 80 µg is supplied as a liquid in a 1.5 mL Type 1 glass cartridge and is stored refrigerated at 5 ± 3ºC.  The multi-dose cartridge is designed to deliver a dose of 80 µg of BA058 in 40 µL of fluid when inserted into the Pen Injector device.  The pen is also capable of delivering a half dose of BA058, or 40 µg of BA058 in 20 µL of fluid, with appropriate manual adjustment.  When in use, multi-dose cartridges of BA058 80 µg can be stored for up to 30 days at room temperature.  When used with the supplied pen and needles, each cartridge may be used to deliver study medication at the required daily dose for 30 days.  Patients will be provided with a sufficient number of cartridges to continue on treatment until the next scheduled return to the study site.

 

Placebo:  Placebo is formulated similarly but without active BA058 and is similarly supplied as a liquid in a 1.5 mL Type 1 glass cartridge and is stored refrigerated at 5 ± 3ºC.  The multi-dose cartridge is designed to deliver a dose of Placebo in 40 µL of fluid when inserted into the Pen Injector device.  The pen is also capable of delivering a half dose of 20 µL with appropriate manual adjustment.  When in use, multi-dose cartridges of Placebo can be stored for up to 30 days at room temperature.  When used with the supplied pen and needles, each cartridge may be used to deliver study medication at the required daily dose for 30 days.  Patients will be provided with a sufficient number of cartridges to continue on treatment until the next scheduled return to the study site.

 

Teriparatide (rDNA origin) injection (250 µg/mL) will be supplied in multi-dose disposable pens containing a glass cartridge.  Each pen contains enough study medication to deliver the required daily dose for 28 days.  Patients will be provided with a sufficient number of pens to continue on treatment until the next scheduled return to the study site.

 

Calcium and Vitamin D Supplements

 

Calcium and Vitamin D supplements will be provided by the sites.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-36



 

Packaging, Labeling and Storage

 

Packaging

 

BA058 80 µg and Placebo will be supplied and packaged as identical cartridges and pens.  The study will not be blinded with regard to teriparatide which is supplied from marketed product; however, because teriparatide will be supplied to the site in identical outer packaging as BA058 80 µg and Placebo, the site will remain blinded until treatment is assigned, the package is opened, and its contents are dispensed.  All packaging operations will be performed in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices.

 

Calcium and Vitamin D supplements will be provided as packaged by the manufacturer.

 

Labeling

 

Each study medication kit will be labeled with an identifying kit number.  In addition, each kit will be labeled with a caution statement and other information required by local Regulatory Authorities.

 

Calcium and Vitamin D supplements will not be relabeled for the study.

 

Storage

 

All study medications (BA058 80 µg, Placebo, teriparatide) must be kept in a secure, limited-access storage area at 2° to 8°C (36° to 46°F) until dispensed for use to a study patient or until returned to the Sponsor.  Once dispensed, BA058 80 µg or Placebo is stable for 30 days at room temperature.  When more than one cartridge of BA058 80 µg or Placebo is dispensed for 30 days of use each, it is recommended that the cartridges not in use be kept refrigerated until required.

 

The teriparatide pen should be stored under refrigeration at 2° to 8°C (36° to 46°F) at all times.

 

Calcium and Vitamin D supplements may be stored at room temperature.

 

Treatment Assignment

 

All patients who are screened for the study will be assigned a unique 7 digit patient number which will be used to identify patients throughout the study and on the CRFs.  Patient numbers will be assigned as follows:

 

XXX YYYY, where:

 

·              XXX represents the study site number;

 

·              YYYY represents the patient ID number

 

Patients who meet all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria and successfully complete the Screening and Pretreatment Periods of the study will be assigned sequentially to

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-37



 

a randomized treatment group on Day 1 of the Treatment Period.  Patients will only receive one study ID at the time of screening and therefore will not receive a new identifier at randomization.  During the randomization call, sites will enter the kit number assigned to the subject into the IVRS system.  The IVRS system will record the site number, the subject number and the kit/randomization number within the system.  Information regarding treatment assignment will reside within the IVRS system, as part of the study blinding.

 

Study medication kits will be assigned sequential numbers beginning with 001.  The study medication kit number assigned to an eligible patient will be recorded in the source documents, on the appropriate page of the CRF, and reported to the IVRS system as described above.  Once a kit has been assigned, it may not be reused.

 

The Sponsor statistician will be responsible for overseeing the preparation of the master randomization scheme that will be used to package study medication into kits and for the IVRS system.

 

Study Medication Administration

 

Patients will self-administer study medication on a daily basis during the Treatment Period.  The first self-administration is to occur at the study site under observation.  On the days of clinic visits, study medication must be administered in the clinic to accommodate pre-injection and post-injection procedures; study personnel may administer the study medication.

 

Patients will be trained by study personnel during the Pretreatment Period to self-inject study medication with the BA058/Placebo cartridge and pen device.  Those patients who are subsequently randomized to teriparatide treatment on Day 1 will be trained in the use of the teriparatide pen on Day 1.  If a patient requires assistance with study medication administration, an individual (e.g., a family member) who has been trained by study personnel may provide assistance.

 

Patients will be instructed by the study site to inspect the contents of their study medication device before each injection.  If the cartridge or pen contents are not clear and colorless, or if the contents contain particles, the patients will be instructed not to use that cartridge or pen and to contact the study site for further guidance.

 

Injections should be administered in the morning and preferably at the same time each day.  All injections are to be given in the periumbilical region, rotating the exact site of injection each day.  If it is deemed medically necessary by the investigator for an injection to be administered at a site other than the abdomen, the alternate site of injection is to be recorded and the reason for the change documented in the medical chart.

 

On the first day of study medication administration, the patient should self-inject while in a sitting or lying position at the study site and remain in that position for approximately 5 minutes.  The patient is to remain under observation for a minimum of 60 minutes.  An orthostatic blood pressure measurement will be taken 60 minutes after the injection.  On the days when blood sampling is required after study medication injection, the patient is to

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-38


 

remain in the vicinity of the clinic for the blood collections scheduled up to 4 hours post-injection.

 

BA058 80 µg and Placebo will be supplied in cartridges, each containing enough study medication to deliver the required daily dose for 30 days. Patients are to be instructed to change cartridges after 30 days, regardless of how much medication is left in the initial cartridge. Teriparatide will be supplied as a pre-filled pen, each with enough study medication for 28 days. Patients will be instructed to use a new pen after each 28-day period. At each clinic visit during the Treatment Period, the used BA058 80 µg or Placebo cartridges, but not pen, or the used teriparatide pens should be returned and a sufficient number of new cartridges or teriparatide pens are to be provided to last until the next clinic visit or as needed to replenish drug supply. Compliance, adverse events, and use of concomitant medications should be reviewed upon drug re-supply.

 

Treatment Compliance

 

In order to evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerance of BA058 80 µg, it is critical that patients comply with the treatment regimen to which they were randomized and honor the schedule of visits and procedures required by the study. Patient compliance will be ascertained by three methods: patient diaries, cartridge accountability, and site-assessment of remaining drug content of returned cartridges.

 

The location, date and time that each dose of study medication was administered will be recorded in a patient diary for the first 30 days of treatment for review at the Month1 (Visit 4), and for the 30 days of Month 11 for review at the Month 12 (Visit 8) study visit, and entered in the appropriate case report form. Weekly summaries of study drug administration will also be maintained by the patient throughout the study. All doses of study medication are to be self-administered or administered by an individual trained in giving the injection (e.g., a family member). Study personnel may administer the injection on days of clinic visits.

 

If a patient does not take all study medication (BA058 80 µg, Placebo, teriparatide, Calcium and Vitamin D supplements), the reason for the missed dosing is to be recorded in source documents and on the appropriate case report form. During the Follow-up Period, it is recommended that patients continue taking the Calcium and Vitamin D supplements, but treatment compliance will not be assessed during this post-treatment period.

 

The residual volume of returned cartridges will be measured by the height of the fluid column and recorded in source documents and on the appropriate case report form by the site personnel when the cartridge is returned by the patient.

 

Unblinding of Study Medication

 

Medical Emergency

 

Breaking the study blind for a patient should be done only in the event of a medical emergency where the identity of study medication is necessary to appropriately treat the

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-39



 

patient. The Investigator may unblind the patient as to study medication through the IVRS system. The IVRS system will automatically document and record any such unblinding and notify the Sponsor Medical Monitor and the Study Safety Officer of the unblinding. In addition, the Sponsor Medical Monitor and the Study Safety Officer also have the ability to unblind the study medication in a medical emergency.

 

If the Investigator determines that the medical event that resulted in unblinding of the study medication is not treatment related (relationship is documented as “none”; see Section 8.3 for definitions of relationship), the patient may continue treatment and participation in the study, providing no more than 14 days has elapsed since the last dose of study medication (refer to Section 0 for details regarding temporary suspension of treatment).

 

If the patient discontinues from further treatment with study medication, they should undergo the End-of-Treatment and End-of-Study procedures as outlined in Section 7.0 and the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (Appendix 14.1).

 

CONCOMITANT MEDICATIONS

 

Concomitant Medications

 

Calcium (500-1000 mg/day) and Vitamin D (400-800 IU/day) supplements, or a dose to be determined by Investigator and agreed upon by the Sponsor Medical Monitor according to the patient’s need, are required to be administered daily from the Pretreatment Period until the end of the Treatment Period. It is recommended that patients continue taking these supplements through the Follow-up Period. The doses and schedule of Calcium and Vitamin D supplements, which are part of the study medication protocol, should be adhered to and not be changed other than for medical necessity (Section 3.1.2). The supplements should be taken in the evening with or without food or as otherwise instructed by the Investigator.

 

For any required concomitant medication, such as statins or antihypertensives, the patient must be on a stable dose at study entry and every effort should be made to maintain a stable dose during study participation.

 

The occasional use of over-the-counter medications at approved doses (e.g., ibuprofen or acetaminophen) for headache or minor discomfort is allowed. These are to be recorded on the appropriate case report form. Patients should not take any other medications, including over-the-counter medications, herbal medications, or mega-doses of vitamins during the study without prior approval of the Investigator.

 

If it becomes necessary for a patient to take any other medication during the study, the specific medication(s) and indication(s) must be discussed with the Investigator. All concomitant medications taken during the course of the study must be recorded in the patient’s medical record or source document and transcribed into the case report form.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-40



 

Prohibited Medications

 

Patients cannot take any medications, including over-the-counter, non-prescription medication, with the exception of those noted in Section 0, within 72 hours prior to dosing on Day 1.

 

As outlined in the exclusion criteria (Section 0), patients who have been treated with bisphosphonates, fluoride or strontium in the past five years or received prior treatment with gallium nitrate, or with as yet unapproved bone-acting investigational agents at any time are to be excluded from study participation. Patients treated with a short course of bisphosphonates (3 months or less) who were intolerant of the treatment may be considered for study participation.

 

Estrogens given as HRT are allowed at entry into the study but cannot be initiated during the study except for local low dose vaginal estrogen.

 

In addition, patients are ineligible for the study if they have received general anesthesia within 12 weeks or have an abnormal nutritional status (abnormal diets, excessive or unusual vitamin or herbal intakes, malabsorption).

 

Patients are ineligible for the study if they require or are receiving thiazide diuretics. The use of thiazide diuretics must be discontinued at least one week prior to screening for study participation.

 

Patients are ineligible for the study if they require or have received anticonvulsants or anticoagulants within 6 months of study participation.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-41



 

STUDY ASSESSMENTS

 

The study protocol will consist of a Screening Period, a Pretreatment Period, a Treatment Period and a Follow-up Period. During the Screening Period, patients will be assessed to establish study eligibility and to collect baseline measurements.

 

In the Pretreatment Period, patients will undergo baseline efficacy labs, receive training in the techniques of self-injection with the BA058/Placebo pen device, receive diary training and begin taking Calcium and Vitamin D supplements.

 

The Treatment Period will begin with randomization. Patients randomized to teriparatide treatment will be trained in the use of the teriparatide pen on Day 1. During the Treatment Period, patients will continue to take Calcium and Vitamin D supplements and will self-administer the assigned study medication. Safety, efficacy and pharmacodynamic evaluations will be performed.

 

During the Follow-up Period (the one month interval after the completion of study treatment) it is recommended that patients continue the daily supplementation of Calcium and Vitamin D. This will culminate in an End-of-Study Visit where final study evaluations are performed and the patient is terminated from the study.

 

The assessments performed at each study visit are displayed in the Schedule of Visits and Procedures in Appendix 14.1. Appendix 0 provides a more detailed schedule of the study procedures by study visit with a suggested order of procedure conduct. Day 1 is defined as the first date that study medication is administered. All days prior to this point are designated with a ‘minus’ sign (e.g., Day —2, Day —1).

 

Exact procedures for centrifuging, storage, and shipping of laboratory samples will be detailed in a separate document. The actual time of each sample collection will be recorded in the case report form.

 

Study-specific assessments are to be conducted only after the patient has provided written informed consent to participate in this study. The study assessments are described in more detail in Section 0 below.

 

Clinical Procedures/Assessments

 

Informed Consent

 

Signed informed consent is obtained before any study-specific procedures are performed.

 

Medical History

 

A complete medical history and review of body systems along with demographic data will be obtained for all patients during the Screening Period (Days —28 to -8). Data to be recorded in the case report form include the patient’s gender, race, date of birth,

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-42



 

tobacco use history, alcohol and caffeine use, and use at any time of hormone replacement therapy. Prior fracture history will also be recorded.

 

Physical Examination

 

A complete physical examination (general appearance, head/ears/eyes/nose/throat [HEENT], lungs/chest, heart, abdomen, lymph nodes, musculoskeletal, and extremities) will be performed during the Screening Period and at the End-of-Treatment. Any treatment-related findings should be followed up at the final study visit during the Follow-up Period (Visit 10).

 

Interim or symptom-directed physical examinations may be performed at other times at the discretion of the Investigator, if necessary, to evaluate adverse events or clinical laboratory abnormalities.

 

Vital Signs, Weight and Height

 

Vital signs (orthostatic blood pressure, body temperature (°C) and respiration rate (breaths/minute)) are to be measured and recorded at each study visit.

 

All blood pressure assessments will be conducted as orthostatic measurements. Blood pressure (mmHg; measured in the same arm each visit) and pulse rate (bpm) will be measured after five minutes in the supine position. Immediately following this measurement blood pressure will be measured again after three minutes in the standing position. At Treatment Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, orthostatic blood pressure will be measured prior to injection and again 60 minutes after injection.

 

Height (cm) will be measured at Visit 1, 2 and 9. Height will be measured in the standing position at the Pretreatment and End-of-Treatment visits using a medical stadiometer and standardized procedures each time.

 

Weight (kg) will be measured at Visits 1, 8, 9 and 10.

 

Electrocardiogram

 

Twelve-lead supine electrocardiograms (ECGs) will be performed according to the Schedule of Visits and Procedures. The following ECG parameters will be recorded: rhythm, heart rate, PR interval, QRS duration and QT/QTc. ECGs will be performed during the Screening Period (Visit 1), the Treatment Period (Visits 3-9), and the Follow-up Period (Visit 10). At Treatment Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, ECGs will be measured prior to injection and again 1 hour after injection. More than one ECG may be performed per time-point.

 

Clinical Laboratory Evaluations

 

Clinical laboratory evaluations will be performed by a central laboratory. Prior to starting the study, the Sponsor (or its designee) will provide each Investigator with

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-43



 

copies of the appropriate laboratory certifications and normal ranges for all laboratory parameters to be performed by that laboratory.

 

Routine clinical laboratory tests will be assessed during the Screening, Pretreatment and Treatment Periods until the End-of-Treatment Visit (Visit 9). Bone-specific laboratory tests (serum calcium, PTH(1-84), and 25-hydroxy Vitamin D) will be conducted during the Screening and Treatment Periods as outlined in Appendix 14.1. Once eligibility has been confirmed, anabolic (PINP, osteocalcin, and BSAP) and resorptive bone marker (CTX) and 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D will be measured during the Pretreatment and Treatment Periods as outlined in Appendix 14.1. Urine Calcium:Creatinine ratio will be determined during the Treatment Period at Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Creatinine Clearance also will be determined during the Treatment Period at Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Serum calcium will be measured at treatment Visits 1 and 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Four hour post-dose serum calcium will be measured at treatment Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria are to be evaluated as described in Sections 4.5.1 and 4.5.2, respectively. In addition, all clinically significant laboratory abnormalities indicating an adverse event will be followed up by repeat testing and further investigated according to the judgment of the Investigator.

 

Clinical laboratory evaluations are to be performed according to the Schedule of Visits and Procedures (Appendix 14.1). Specific tests to be run are described below.

 

Note: blood and urinalysis samples are to be obtained under fasting conditions (N.P.O. for 8 hours; water is acceptable) in the morning of each scheduled study visit prior to injection of the study medication with the exception of blood samples for BA058 post-injection drug levels and 4-hour post-injection calcium levels. For the 24-hour urine collection, patients will be instructed to begin the collection by discarding the first morning void (~6 a.m.) the day prior to the scheduled clinic visit and to then collect their urine for 24 hours. A final void is to be collected at the end of the 24-hour period and the urine collection transported to the clinic by the patient. Routine urinalyses are to be performed using samples freshly voided during the clinic visit.

Serum Markers of Bone Metabolism

 

Blood samples will be taken to measure efficacy-related markers of bone metabolism during the Pretreatment Period and at specified visits during the Treatment Period in a subset of 600 patients.

 

The following markers of bone formation will be measured:

 

·                   Serum N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP)

·                   Serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP)

·                   Serum osteocalcin

 

The following marker of bone resorption and collagen breakdown will be measured:

 

·                   Serum C-telopeptides of type 1 collagen crosslinks (CTX)

 

Clinical and Radiologic Evaluation of Fractures

 

To be eligible for randomization and entry into the Treatment Period, patients must have radiological evidence of 2 or more mild or one or more moderate lumbar or thoracic vertebral fractures, or history of low trauma forearm, humerus, sacral, pelvic, hip, femoral, or tibial fracture within the past 5 years. Women older than 65 who do not meet the fracture criteria may also be enrolled if their T-score is < -3.0 and > -5.0.

 

All patients will have x-rays taken to document fractures of the spine, lumbar and thoracic vertebrae. Patients will undergo antero-posterior and lateral radiographs of the lumbar and thoracic spines during the Screening Period and at the End-of-Treatment visit. However, in the event that qualifying lumbar or thoracic vertebral x-rays have been obtained as a consequence of routine patient care within 3 months prior to the Screening visit and comply with the study x-ray procedures, such x-rays may be used for assessment of eligibility.

 

Patients will also be clinically evaluated for non-vertebral fractures (wrist, hip, rib, etc) which occur de novo during the Treatment Period.

 

All radiographs will be viewed and assessed centrally by a blinded, independent assessor (radiologist) on the basis of existing baseline and study-acquired vertebral deformity, and fracture will be assessed according to the severity scale of Genant (1). A second blinded radiologist will confirm the assessment of the first reviewer for all patient radiographs in which an incident fracture has been identified. In the case of any disagreement, a third consensus assessment will be made to adjudicate the incident fracture. A standardized graded scale of severity of the vertebral deformity will be provided for this assessment.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-46



 

Fractures identified during the study will not be recorded as AEs unless the patient is hospitalized, the fracture is complicated, or the Investigator considers the fracture to be unrelated to the patient’s underlying osteoporosis. All fractures will be identified and evaluated as part of the disease assessment and will be documented in the case report forms and source documents.

 

Bone Mineral Density

 

To be eligible for randomization and entry into the Treatment Period, each patient must have a BMD T-score < -2.5 and > -5.0 at the lumbar spine or hip by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Postmenopausal women older than 65 who meet the fracture criteria but have a T-score < -2.0 and > -5.0 may be enrolled as well as women older than 65 who do not meet the fracture criteria but who do have a T-score < -3.0 and > -5.0.

 

All patients will have BMD measurements taken via DXA during the Screening (Visit 1) and Pretreatment (Visit 2) Periods and during the Treatment Period (Visits 6, 8 and 9). However, in the event that qualifying BMD scans have been obtained as a consequence of routine patient care within 3 months prior to the Screening visit and comply with the study DXA procedures, such scans may be used for assessment of eligibility and need not be redone at Screening.

 

The initial DXA will be performed during the Screening Period and will be used to determine eligibility for participation in the study in conjunction with the radiological evaluations of fractures. The DXA is to be performed on the hip (femoral neck) and spine (L1-L4) at this visit and a qualifying T-score from either location can be used to determine eligibility. The spinal DXA is to be taken in the postero-anterior projection with any subsequent spinal DXA to be taken in the same projection. Patients who meet the entry criterion for BMD who satisfy all other eligibility criteria, and who have no exclusionary findings, will then be enrolled. On Day 1, a subset of 300 patients per group will have a wrist DXA scan. BMD measurements by DXA will be repeated at the lumbar spine (L1-L4), hip, and wrist during the Treatment Period (Visits 6, 8 and 9).

 

Details regarding the procedures for the conduct and processing of DXA scans will be provided in separate instruction manual. Patient eligibility will be determined based on local analysis of the BMD scan at the study site. The Central Imaging CRO will subsequently confirm the acceptability of each DXA scan with the study sites. If any scan is unacceptable for technical or other reasons, a repeat scan must be completed as soon as possible. Investigators will be blinded to the results of all follow-up DXA scan results throughout the study unless a safety issue is identified by the independent radiologist.

 

If the independent radiologist identifies any patient who shows a continuing significant deterioration from baseline (>7%) of BMD at spine or hip during the study, the study physician will be notified, the assessment will be repeated and, if confirmed, the patient will be discontinued from the study. The study physician will

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-47



 

make this determination on the basis of the centrally read DXA relative to the baseline measurement in consultation with the Sponsor Medical Monitor. All such instances will be communicated to the DSMB.

 

Quantitative Bone Histomorphometry Assessment

 

In a subset of patients receiving BA058 80 µg or Placebo (up to 100 per group to obtain 75 evaluable biopsies per treatment group), bone biopsy of the iliac crest will be performed between Visit 8 and the End-of-Treatment Visit (Visit 9) for assessment of quantitative bone histomorphometry using a dual-labeling procedure. Details regarding the procedures for the conduct and processing of the bone biopsy will be provided in separate instruction manual. All bone biopsies will be read at a central specialized facility. A separate consent form will be obtained for those patients agreeing to undergo the biopsy procedure and additional clinic visits will be scheduled, as required, to prepare for the bone biopsy procedure between Visit 8 and Visit 9.

 

Renal assessment by CT Scan

 

In a subset of patients, (up to 100 per treatment group), a CT scan of the kidneys will be performed at the End-of-Treatment Visit (Visit 9) to assess the renal parenchyma and collecting system for renal calcification. Details regarding the procedures for the conduct and processing of renal CT scans will be provided in separate instruction manual. A separate consent form will be obtained for patients participating in the procedure.

 

BA058 Serum Level and Antibody Assessments

 

Samples for measurement of serum levels of BA058 will be taken at Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 9 during the Treatment Period as part of a Population PK assessment. One peak level is to be drawn per patient per visit at the following varying post-injection times: 10 minutes to 30 minutes; 30 minutes to 1 hour; 1 hour to 2 hours; 2 hours to 3 hours; 3 hours to 4 hours. These draw times are to be randomized across Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8. At the End-of-Treatment (Visit 9), only a trough level will be measured. Patients randomized to teriparatide will not have samples drawn for BA058 serum levels.

 

Samples for anti-BA058 antibody assessment will be obtained at Visit 3 (Day 1) and Visit 9 during the Treatment Period. Any patients who show presence of antibodies at End-of-Treatment will have additional time points tested to determine first occurrence of antibody positivity.

 

Local Tolerance

 

Assessment of local tolerance will consist of a self-evaluation by the patient of any dermal reaction to study medication injection during the first 30 days of study treatment for review at the Month1 (Visit 4), and for the 30 days of Month 11 for

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-48


 

review at the Month 12 (Visit 8) study visit, and entered in the appropriate case report form.  This second diary will be dispensed at the Month 9 (Visit 7) or forwarded to the patient by mail, as appropriate.  Each injection site will be graded twice, 1 hour and 24 hours after the injection was performed and information will be recorded by the patient into the patient diary.  In addition, at each study visit during the Treatment Period, the Investigator will review and assess the injection sites for any evidence of dermal reaction.

 

Each injection site will be graded according to the following skin reaction scale.

 

Redness

0 =                           none

1 =                           minimal erythema, barely perceptible

2 =                           definite erythema, readily visible, less than 1 inch (2.54 cm) in diameter

3 =                           definite erythema, extensive, greater than 1 inch (2.54 cm) in diameter

Swelling

0 =                           none

1 =                           minimal swelling, without elevation

2 =                           definite swelling, readily visible; elevation less than 1 inch (2.54 cm) in diameter

3 =                           definite swelling, extensive, greater than 1 inch (2.54 cm) in diameter

Pain

0 =                           none

1 =                           minimal pain

2 =                           moderate pain, similar to a paper cut

3 =                           severe pain, similar to a bee sting or greater

Tenderness

0 =                           none

1 =                           minimal tenderness to touch

2 =                           moderate tenderness, no withdrawal to touch

3 =                            severe tenderness, withdraws to touch

 

Any injection site reaction with a grade of 3 will continue to be evaluated and recorded in the diary by the patient at 24 hour intervals until the symptom or sign has resolved.  If any reactions are severe or persistent at any time during the Study, the patient will be instructed to contact the Investigator.

 

Patient Diaries

 

As noted above in Section 7.1.13, a diary to record study drug administration and local tolerance will be maintained by patients during two 30-day periods of the study.

 

The first diary will be provided on Day 1 (the first day of study treatment) for the patient to record the date, time and site of study medication injection and to assess local tolerance using the scale described in Section 7.1.13.  Patients will record the required information daily during the first 30 days of the Treatment Period and at the Month 1 (Visit 4) clinic visit study personnel will review the diary with the patient.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-49



 

The Investigator will assess the information recorded by the patient for adverse events.  The second diary will be dispensed at the Month 9 (Visit 7) or later mailed to the patient, as appropriate, for completion by the patient for the 30 days of Month 11.  The diary will be collected and reviewed at the Month 12 (Visit 8) visit.  The diary data will be entered into the CRF, and any abnormality or adverse event will be followed up with the patient.

 

In addition, a diary summarizing all study drug administration will also be completed by the patient on a weekly basis.  The weekly diary will be maintained by the patient throughout the study and will be reviewed at each visit.

 

Activity and Diet

 

Patients who qualify for enrollment in the study will have no restrictions placed on their usual level of activity or on their usual diet.

 

ADVERSE EVENTS AND SAFETY EVALUATION

 

Timely, accurate, and complete reporting and analysis of safety information from clinical studies are crucial for the protection of subjects, Investigators and the Sponsor, and is mandated by Regulatory Agencies worldwide.  The Sponsor (or its designee) has established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) in conformity with regulatory requirements worldwide to ensure appropriate reporting of safety information.  All clinical trials sponsored by the Sponsor will be conducted in accordance with those procedures.

 

Definitions, Documentation, and Reporting

 

Adverse Event Definition

 

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment.  An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not it is considered to be study drug related.  This includes any newly occurring event or previous condition that has increased in severity or frequency since the administration of study drug.

 

Serious Adverse Event Definition

 

A serious adverse event (SAE) is any adverse event, occurring at any dose and regardless of causality that:

 

·                                           Results in death .

 

·                                           Is life-threatening .  Life-threatening means that the subject was at immediate risk of death from the reaction as it occurred, i.e., it does not include a reaction which hypothetically might have caused death had it occurred in a more severe form.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-50



 

·                                           Requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization .  Hospitalization admissions and/or surgical operations scheduled to occur during the study period, but planned prior to study entry are not considered AEs if the illness or disease existed before the subject was enrolled in the trial, provided that it did not deteriorate in an unexpected manner during the trial (e.g., surgery performed earlier than planned).

 

·                                           Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity .  Disability is defined as a substantial disruption of a person’s ability to conduct normal life functions.

 

·                                           Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect .  This includes any anomaly detected at or after birth, or any anomaly that results in fetal loss.

 

·                                           Is an important medical event .  An important medical event is an event that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require hospitalization, but may be considered an SAE when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, it may jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in the definitions for SAEs.  Examples of such medical events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in inpatient hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse.

 

Clarification should be made between the terms “serious” and “severe” since they are not synonymous.  The term “severe” is often used to describe the intensity (synonym: severity) of a specific event (as in mild, moderate, or severe myocardial infarction); the event itself, however, may be of relatively minor medical significance (such as a severe headache).  This is not the same as “serious,” which is based on subject/event outcome or action criteria described above and are usually associated with events that pose a threat to a subject’s life or functioning.  A severe adverse event does not necessarily need to be considered serious.  For example, persistent nausea of several hours duration may be considered severe nausea but not an SAE.  On the other hand, a stroke resulting in only a minor degree of disability may be considered mild, but would be defined as an SAE based on the above noted criteria.  Seriousness (not severity) serves as a guide for defining regulatory reporting obligations.

 

Monitoring of Adverse Events and Period of Observation

 

All AEs will be monitored until they are resolved or have become chronic or stable.  AEs will be recorded on the case report forms starting from the time of patient entry into the Pretreatment Period (Visit 2) of the study until 30 days after the last dose of study medication.  SAEs will be collected up to 30 days after the last dose of study medication.  Any SAEs that occur at any time after completion of the study, which the Investigator considers to be related to study drug, must be reported to the Sponsor or its designee.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-51



 

Procedures for Recording and Reporting AEs and SAEs

 

All adverse events spontaneously reported by the subject and/or in response to an open question from study personnel or revealed by observation, physical examination or other diagnostic procedures must be recorded in the source document and on the appropriate page of the case report form.  Any clinically relevant deterioration in laboratory assessments or other clinical findings is considered an adverse event and must be recorded on the appropriate pages of the case report form.  When possible, signs and symptoms indicating a common underlying pathology should be noted as one comprehensive event.

 

All SAEs that occur during the course of the study, as defined by the protocol, must be reported by the Investigator to the Study Safety Officer by completing and transmitting the SAE Form within one working day from the point in time when the Investigator becomes aware of the SAE.  In addition, all SAEs including all deaths, which occur up to and including 30 days after administration of the last dose of study drug, must be reported to the Study Safety Officer within one working day.  All SAEs and deaths must be reported whether or not considered causally related to the study drug.  SAE forms will be provided to the study site.  The information collected will include a minimum of the following: subject number, a narrative description of the event, and an assessment by the Investigator as to the intensity of the event, and relatedness to study drug.  Follow-up information on the SAE may be requested by the CRO, the Study Safety Officer or the Sponsor Medical Monitor.  Contact information for reporting SAEs to the Study Safety Officer is provided on the SAE form.

 

Study Safety Officer Contact Information

 

PLEASE SEE SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING FORM FOR DETAILED
REPORTING OF SAEs, INCLUDING CONTACT INFORMATION (e.g., FAX, EMAIL
OR TELEPHONE CONTACT NUMBERS)

 

It is the responsibility of the Investigator to promptly notify the Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) of all serious adverse drug reactions involving risk to human subjects in accordance with the requirements of the IRB/IEC.  An unexpected event is one that is not reported in the Investigator’s Brochure.

 

Planned hospital admissions or surgical procedures for an illness or disease that existed before the subject was enrolled in the trial or before study drug was given are not to be considered AEs unless they occur at a time other than the planned date.

 

Fractures identified during the study are not to be recorded as AEs unless the patient is hospitalized, the fracture is complicated, or the Investigator considers the fracture to be unrelated to the patient’s underlying osteoporosis.  All fractures will be identified and evaluated as part of the disease assessment and will be documented in the case report forms and source documents.

 

For both serious and non-serious adverse events, the Investigator must determine the intensity of the event and the relationship of the event to study drug administration.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-52



 

Intensity for each AE will be defined according to the following criteria:

 

Intensity

Definition

Mild

Awareness of sign or symptom, but easily tolerated.

Moderate

Discomfort enough to cause interference with normal daily activities.

Severe

Inability to perform normal daily activities

 

If the intensity of an adverse event changes within a day, the maximum intensity should be recorded.  If the intensity changes over a longer period of time, the changes should be recorded as separate events (having separate onset and stop dates for each intensity).

 

Relationship to study drug administration will be determined by the Investigator according to the following criteria:

 

Relationship

Definition

None

No relationship between the event and the administration of study drug. The event is related to other etiologies, such as concomitant medications or subject’s clinical state.

 

 

Unlikely

The current state of knowledge indicates that a relationship to study drug is unlikely or the temporal relationship is such that study drug would not have had any reasonable association with the observed event.

 

 

Possible

A reaction that follows a plausible temporal sequence from administration of the study drug and follows a known response pattern to the suspected study drug. The reaction might have been produced by the subject’s clinical state or other modes of therapy administered to the subject.

 

 

Probable

A reaction that follows a plausible temporal sequence from administration of the study drug and follows a known response pattern to the suspected study drug. The reaction cannot be reasonably explained by the known characteristics of the subject’s clinical state or other modes of therapy administered to the subject.

 

For the purpose of safety analyses, all AEs that are classified with a relationship to study medication administration of possible or probable will be considered treatment-related events.

STATISTICAL PROCEDURES

 

The purpose of this section is to outline prospectively the types of analyses and presentations of data that will answer the study objectives outlined in the protocol, and to explain how the data will be handled and analyzed, adhering to commonly accepted standards and practices of biostatistical analysis in the pharmaceutical industry.

 

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg when compared to a matching placebo (Placebo) for prevention of vertebral fracture in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis.  The secondary objectives of this study are to determine the safety and efficacy of BA058 80 µg when compared to Placebo for prevention of non-vertebral fractures and change in vertical height.  Additional secondary efficacy outcomes include BMD (spine, hip and femoral neck) and safety (hypercalcemia) when compared to teriparatide in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis.

 

The specific objectives of this study are to:

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on reduction of vertebral fracture incidence in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis when compared with Placebo.

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on lumbar spine, hip, and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis when compared to teriparatide.

 

·                   Determine the comparative efficacy of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg on reduction of non-vertebral fracture incidence in otherwise healthy ambulatory postmenopausal women at risk of fracture from severe osteoporosis when compared with Placebo.

 

·                   Determine the overall safety and tolerability of 18 months of treatment with BA058 80 µg, and specifically the number of patients with hypercalcemic events, in otherwise healthy postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis when compared to teriparatide and Placebo.

 

·                   Provide additional evidence of bone safety through histomorphometric assessment of bone biopsy samples in a subset of patients from the BA058 80 µg and Placebo groups.

 

·                   Provide additional evidence of renal safety through radiological assessment by CT scan of a subset of patients from the BA058 80 µg, Placebo and teriparatide groups.

 

Sample Size

 

A sample size of 622 patients per treatment arm provides 90% power at a two-sided alpha of 0.05 to detect a difference of 4% between treatments, assuming a vertebral fracture rate of

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-55



 

7% in placebo patients and 3% in BA058 80 µg for injection-treated patients when the large scale approximation of the binomial method is employed.  This superiority assessment infers a relative risk reduction of 57% and presupposes the availability of a pretreatment and post-treatment radiological assessment.  This population analysis would therefore be considered a modified ITT and will constitute the primary analysis population for this study.  To ensure an analysis size of 622 patients, an overall sample size of 800 patients per treatment arm will be recruited, anticipating that approximately 20% of patients may not have a second evaluable X-ray film available for analysis.  Should the projected fracture rate of 7% in placebo patients not be achieved, the sample size retains greater than 90% power at an alpha of 0.05 to detect a 4% difference between treatments based on placebo fracture incidence of 6% or 5%.

 

For statistically-powered secondary endpoint assessments, the sample size will have more than 90% power (n=275) at a two-sided alpha of 0.05 to detect a 1.15 percent difference between BA058 and teriparatide for spinal BMD based on a superiority hypothesis.  Similarly, for total analyzable hip BMD, the sample size will provide more than 90% power (n=25) at a two-sided alpha of 0.05 to detect a 2.45 percent difference between BA058 and teriparatide treatment effect and to detect a 2.00 percent difference between BA058 and teriparatide for femoral neck BMD (n=125) based on the same hypothesis.

 

For differences in the number of patients in the BA058 and teriparatide treatment groups reporting one or more events of hypercalcemia, both above the upper limit of normal and at a value of 0.3 mg/mL above the upper limit of normal, the medically significant elevation, the study sample size will also provide more than 90% power to detect such a difference using a two-sided alpha of 0.05.

 

Additional and other secondary endpoints will also be satisfied by these study sizes and will be included in the details provided in the Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP).

 

Randomization, Stratification and Blinding

 

Patients who have signed informed consent, completed the Screening and Pretreatment Periods, and are eligible for the study will be equally randomized into the three treatment groups on Day 1 of the Treatment Period.  A balanced randomized block assignment will be utilized to insure that an equal number of patients are assigned to each treatment group after a pre-specified block size has been achieved.

 

The Population PK sample timings will be randomized across visits for each patient.

 

Subsets of the population will be randomized to undergo bone biopsies, renal CT scans, serum bone markers and DXA’s to analyze wrist BMD in such a manner to ensure equal representation throughout the study.

 

No stratification is planned in this study.

 

BA058 80 µg and Placebo study medications will be prepared in a blinded fashion.  The study will not be blinded with regard to teriparatide which is supplied from marketed product; however, because teriparatide will be supplied to the site in identical outer

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-56



 

packaging as BA058 80 µg and Placebo, the site will remain blinded until treatment is assigned, the package is opened, and its contents are dispensed.  Therefore, teriparatide will not be blinded in use relative to BA058 80 µg or Placebo.

 

Populations for Analysis

 

All analyses and data summaries will be presented for the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) or Safety Population.  In addition key selected endpoints will also be analyzed for the Per Protocol Population.

 

Safety Population

 

The Safety Population is comprised of all patients who receive one or more doses of study medication.

 

Modified Intent-to-Treat Population

 

The Modified ITT Population includes all patients with Pretreatment and End-of-Treatment evaluable radiologic assessments.

 

Per Protocol Population

 

The Per Protocol Population includes all patients who meet the study entry criteria and provide complete data, are at least 90% compliant with study treatment, and have no dose adjustments.

 

Procedures for Handling Missing, Unused, and Spurious Data

 

All available data will be included in the data listings and tabulations. Where appropriate, imputations of values for missing data for primary and secondary efficacy analyses using the safety population will be performed using last observation carried forward and will be specified in the Statistical Analysis Plan.  All data recorded on the CRF will be included in the data listings that will accompany the clinical study report.

 

Statistical Methods

 

Baseline Comparisons

 

Baseline characteristics, medical history, physical examination, vital signs and ECG, will be summarized using standard descriptive statistics by treatment group.  Specific demographic and baseline parameters will be tested for overall agreement (uniformity across treatment groups) using one-way ANOVA or Chi-square tests as appropriate for the type of data and specified in the Statistical Analysis Plan.

 

Efficacy Analysis

 

The primary efficacy endpoint will be the number of BA058-treated patients showing new vertebral fractures at End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.  New

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-57



 

incident vertebral fractures will be evaluated according to the method of Genant (1).  This analysis will be performed using a Fisher’s Exact test on the modified intent to treat population.

 

Secondary efficacy endpoints will be analyzed using a Fisher’s Exact test (categorical variables) or analyses of covariance employing the baseline measure as the covariate (continuous variable) on the modified intent to treat population unless otherwise noted below.  For continuous variables, analyses will be performed on the last available assessment for each variable.

 

A hierarchical approach to the following key secondary analyses will be employed.  Secondary variables will be analyzed in the order below using two-sided alphas of 0.05.  Once an alpha is obtained that is above 0.05, the inferential analysis of secondary outcomes in the hierarchy will stop and no further secondary inferential analyses of the hierarchical variables will take place.

 

·                   The change in Spine BMD from baseline to End-of-Treatment in BA058-treated patients when compared to teriparatide.

 

·                   The change in Total Hip BMD from baseline to End-of-Treatment in BA058-treated patients when compared to teriparatide.

 

·                   The change in Femoral Neck BMD from baseline to End-of-Treatment in BA058-treated patients when compared to teriparatide.

 

An additional key powered secondary efficacy analysis will be the assessment of hypercalcemia.

 

·                   The difference in number of patients with hypercalcemia in BA058-treated patients at End-of-Treatment when compared to teriparatide.

 

Additional non-hierarchical analyses will be employed on the following efficacy parameters:

 

·                   The change in vertical height in patients treated with BA058 when compared to Placebo.

 

·                   The number of BA058-treated patients showing new non-vertebral fractures at End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.

 

·                   The difference in severity of incident vertebral fractures in BA058-treated patients at End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.  The analysis will employ a Chi-Square approach as severity is assessed in multiple grades.

 

·                   Kaplan-Meier estimates of fracture incidence over time by treatment group.  Point estimates (differences in incidence) of absolute and relative risk reduction (hazard ratio) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals will

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-58


 

be provided.  Data will be censored at the time of study termination for those not experiencing a fracture.

 

·                   The number of teriparatide-treated patients showing new vertebral fractures at End-of-Treatment when compared to Placebo.  New incident vertebral fractures will be evaluated according to the method of Genant (1). This analysis will be performed using a Fisher’s Exact test on the modified intent to treat population with a two-sided alpha of 0.20.  As the study is not statistically powered for the comparison of teriparatide to Placebo and alpha of 0.20 will be employed to claim a statistical difference.

 

·                   The change in distal 1/3 radius BMD from baseline to End-of-Treatment in BA058-treated patients when compared to Placebo.

 

·                   The changes in serum PINP, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin and CTX across treatment.

 

Where any single parameter is analyzed against more than one comparator within the three treatments, an adjustment for multiplicity will be employed as specified in the Statistical Analysis Plan.

 

Analyses of continuous variables (e.g., change in BMD and height) will be analyzed using the Safety Population with last observations carried forward as noted in section 9.4.

 

In addition, efficacy analyses for patients who have a dose adjustment and continue on the study at a reduced dose, data may be summarized and tabulated.

 

All specified endpoints will be summarized by treatment groups and study period using standard descriptive statistics (N, mean, SD, median, minimum, maximum).  Changes in serum markers of bone metabolism (PINP, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and CTX) will be analyzed using repeated measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with factors for treatment (treatment groups), time (study period) and their interaction.

 

A population PK/PD analysis will be performed on samples for measurement of serum levels of BA058.  The PK/PD analyses and exposure response modeling will be described in a separate SAP and report and will generally follow the guidance provided by FDA (Exposure-Response Relationships — Study Design, Data Analysis, and Regulatory Applications, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Food and Drug Administration, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), April 2003).

 

Additional exploratory analyses will be presented as either pre-planned or post-hoc to complement the overall understanding of study results.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-59



 

Safety Analysis

 

All patients who receive at least one dose of study medication will be included in the safety analysis that will be performed on the following parameters:

 

·                   Incidence and severity of AEs.  Dose and cumulative dose at which the AE occurred will also be recorded.

 

·                   Pathological changes in hematology, chemistry and urinalysis data based on normal ranges supplied by the clinical laboratory.

 

·                   Frequency of hypercalcemia across treatment groups (see Section 0)

 

·                   Bone histomorphometry as assessed by bone biopsy at End-of-Treatment in a subset of BA058 and Placebo patients.

 

·                   Renal safety as assessed by serum and urine creatinine (all patients) and renal CT scan (subset of patients) in all treatment groups.

 

Safety assessments for changes in physical examination, vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure plus heart rate), ECG (normal and abnormal), and laboratory tests will be descriptively summarized by group and selected study periods.  In addition laboratory tests will be classified as low range, normal range, or high range and shift frequencies summarized between the Screening Period and the End-of-Treatment Visit.  Concomitant medication classes will be coded employing the WHO drug dictionary and summarized by number and percent of patients using each class and preferred drug term by treatment group.  All treatment emergent adverse events will be coded for body system, preferred term, and lowest level term using MedDRA and the number (%) patients experiencing each type of adverse event will be summarized by treatment group, cumulative dose, relationship to treatment, and severity.  All serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events leading to study discontinuation will be listed and the number (%) patients presented by treatment group.

 

All adverse events collected prior to the first injection will be separately summarized in a fashion similar to the treatment emergent adverse events.

 

Adverse event rates will be compared across treatment groups with Chi-square and/or Fisher’s Exact test provided there is sufficient frequency of events to justify the testing.  In addition, 95% confidence intervals will be presented for rate differences between Placebo and each active treatment group.

 

Interim Analysis

 

No interim analyses are planned for this study.

 

Attachment 2, Attachment E-60



 

Procedures for Reporting Deviations to Original Statistical Analysis Plan

 

All deviations from the original statistical analysis plan will be provided in the final clinical study report.

 

Data Oversight

 

Central Review of Radiographs and DXA Scans

 

All radiographs will be viewed and assessed by a blinded, independent assessor (radiologist) on the basis of existing baseline and study-acquired vertebral deformity, and fracture will be assessed according to a set of pre-determined criteria.  A second blinded radiologist will review the assessment of the first reviewer for all patient radiographs in which an incident fracture has been identified.  In the case of any disagreement, a third consensus assessment will be made to adjudicate the incident fracture.  All study DXA scans will also be evaluated centrally by a blinded independent reviewer.  The primary objective of the independent review is to provide an objective, unbiased evaluation of the critical eligibility criteria at screening and during the course of the study to provide objective efficacy data to determine the treatment benefit as demonstrated on the pertinent radiologic and clinical data associated with this study.  Finally, all renal CT scans will also be evaluated centrally by a blinded independent reviewer and confirmed by a second reviewer to ensure unbiased assessment of the renal parenchyma and collecting system.

 

Data Safety Monitoring Board

 

The DSMB will be responsible for overseeing study safety during the course of the trial.

14.1                         Schedule of Visits and Procedures (continued)

 


(1)                                   Interim or symptom directed physical examinations may be conducted at other time points to assess adverse events or clinical laboratory abnormalities.

(2)                                   Vital signs (orthostatic blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature, and respiration rate) are to be recorded at each study visit.
Height is to be measured at Visits 1, 2 and 9.  Height will be measured at Visits 2 and 9 in the standing position using a medical stadiometer.
Weight is to be measured during the Screening Period, at Visit 8, at the End-of-Treatment (Visit 9) and the Follow-up visit (Visit 10) only.
Orthostatic blood pressure is to be measured initially after 5 minutes in the supine position and then again after standing for 3 minutes.

(3)                                   Study medication injections are to be administered under supervision in the study clinic during scheduled clinic visits.  Assessments of orthostatic blood pressure will be done pre-dose and 60 minutes post-dose at Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.

(4)                                   ECGs are to be obtained pre-dose and 1 hour post-dose on Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.

(5)                                   On days of 24-hour urine collection, routine urinalysis will be performed on a sample freshly voided during the clinic visit.

(6)                                   These blood and urine samples are to be obtained under fasting conditions (N.P.O. for 8 hours; water is acceptable) in the morning of each scheduled study visit.  They are to be collected prior to injection of the study medication during the Treatment Period.

(7)                                   Includes blood samples for PINP, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, serum osteocalcin and CTX (subset of 600 patients).

(8)                                   One peak level is to be drawn per patient per visit at the following varying post-injection times:  10 minutes to 30 minutes; 30 minutes to 1 hour; 1 hour to 2 hours; 2 hours to 3 hours; 3 hours to 4 hours.  These draw times are to be randomized across Visits 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8. At the End-of-Treatment (Visit 9), only a trough level will be measured.  No BA058 serum levels will be drawn for patients randomized to teriparatide.

(9)                                   These samples are to be drawn post-injection; the patient no longer needs to be fasting.  The patient is to remain near the clinic for the post-injection blood collections.

(10)                             This urine collection will be used for urinary calcium and urinary creatinine measurements.  Patients will discard the 1 st  void and begin a 24-hour urine collection the day prior to the clinic visit.  If a routine urinalysis is to be performed during the clinic visit, a separate sample freshly voided during the clinic visit will be used.

(11)                             DXA is to be performed initially on the hip (femoral neck) and spine (L1-L4) during the Screening visit.  A DXA of the wrist should be performed in a subset of patients on Day 1.  Each DXA for a given patient must be performed on the same machine, preferably by the same technician.

(12)                             Patients who agree to undergo the quantitative bone histomorphometric assessment will have additional clinic visits scheduled, as required, to prepare for the bone biopsy performed between Visit 8 and the End-of-Treatment visit (Visit 9).

(13)                             Calcium and Vitamin D supplements begin at the Pretreatment Period visit and continue until the end of the Treatment Period; it will be recommended to patients that they continue these supplements through the Follow-up visit.  A supply of supplements is provided for each patient.  At each study visit, the patient’s supply is to be assessed and the patient resupplied as necessary.  Drug usage reconciliation is to be performed when a new supply is provided.

(14)                             All patients will be trained on the use of the BA058/Placebo cartridge/pen delivery device at Visit 2; patients who are subsequently randomized to receive teriparatide will be trained on the use of the teriparatide pen at Visit 3.

(15)                             The Investigator is to review and assess the injection sites at each Treatment Period visit.

(16)                             Diaries will be provided to patients to record information regarding study medication injections (date/time/site of injection; local tolerance) for the first 30 days of treatment and for 30 days prior to Month 12 (Visit 8). In addition, the patient will also maintain a diary throughout the study to summarize all study drug administration on a weekly basis. The diaries are to be reviewed with the patient at each study visit.

Suggested Schedule of Events and Procedures by Study Visit

 

The purpose of this guide is to provide more detailed instructions for the study procedures listed in Appendix 14.1.  This guide presents the procedures in a suggested sequence of performance at each study visit.  Further information may be found within the protocol and in other study reference manuals (e.g., ECG, clinical lab sample processing).

 

Of note:

 

·                   During the Treatment Period, on the days of clinic visits, study medication must be injected at the clinic to accommodate pre-injection and post-injection procedures; study personnel may administer the study medication on those days.

 

·                   Pre-injection procedures include assessments of the patient, vital signs, ECG, and pre-injection blood/urinalysis collections.

 

·                   Pre-injection blood and urinalysis samples are to be obtained under fasting conditions (N.P.O. for 8 hours; water is acceptable) in the morning of each scheduled study visit; post-injection blood samples do not require fasting.

 

·                   BMD Scans: Always use the same study-validated machine; preferably the same technician.

 

·                   The 24-hour urine collection will be started at home the day before the clinic visit where the collection is required.  Patients will be instructed to discard the first morning void and begin the collection at least 24 hours before their clinic visit the following day.  They will collect all urine for 24 hours with a final void before coming to the clinic.  Routine urinalyses are to be performed using samples freshly voided during the clinic visit.

 

·                   Pen devices and needles for administration of study medications will be provided.  BA058 80 µg and Placebo will be supplied in cartridges, each containing enough study medication to deliver the required daily dose for 30 days.  Patients are to be instructed to change to a new cartridge after 30 days, regardless of how much medication is left in the cartridge.  At each clinic visit, the used BA058 80 µg or Placebo cartridges, but not pen, are to be returned and a sufficient number of new cartridges to last until the next clinic visit are to be provided.  Teriparatide will be supplied as pre-filled pens, each with enough medication for 28 days.  At each clinic visit, the used teriparatide pens should be returned and a sufficient number of new pens provided to last until the next clinic visit.

 

·                   Patients will be instructed to take the Calcium and Vitamin D supplements daily (in the evening with or without food or as otherwise instructed by the Investigator) until they are discharged from the study.  This is required until the End-of-Treatment.  During the Follow-up Period it is recommended that they continue the supplements.

 

·                   Patients will be approached at Visit 8 regarding participation in the quantitative bone histomorphometric evaluations.  Patients who consent to this assessment will undergo a bone biopsy between Visit 8 and Visit 9.  Additional clinic visits will be scheduled to complete all necessary preparations for the procedure.

Declaration of Helsinki

 

WORLD MEDICAL ASSOCIATION DECLARATION OF HELSINKI
Ethical Principles for Medical Research Involving Human Subjects
Adopted by the 18th WMA General Assembly, Helsinki, Finland, June 1964 and amended by the:
29th WMA General Assembly, Tokyo, Japan, October 1975
35th WMA General Assembly, Venice, Italy, October 1983
41st WMA General Assembly, Hong Kong, September 1989
48th WMA General Assembly, Somerset West, Republic of South Africa, October 1996
52nd WMA General Assembly, Edinburgh, Scotland, October 2000
53rd WMA General Assembly, Washington 2002 (Note of Clarification on paragraph 29 added)
55th WMA General Assembly, Tokyo 2004 (Note of Clarification on Paragraph 30 added)
59th WMA General Assembly, Seoul, October 2008

 

A. INTRODUCTION

 

1. The World Medical Association (WMA) has developed the Declaration of Helsinki as a statement of ethical principles for medical research involving human subjects, including research on identifiable human material and data.

 

The Declaration is intended to be read as a whole and each of its constituent paragraphs should not be applied without consideration of all other relevant paragraphs.

 

2. Although the Declaration is addressed primarily to physicians, the WMA encourages other participants in medical research involving human subjects to adopt these principles.

 

3. It is the duty of the physician to promote and safeguard the health of patients, including those who are involved in medical research. The physician’s knowledge and conscience are dedicated to the fulfilment of this duty.

 

4. The Declaration of Geneva of the WMA binds the physician with the words, “The health of my patient will be my first consideration,” and the International Code of Medical Ethics declares that, “A physician shall act in the patient’s best interest when providing medical care.”

 

5. Medical progress is based on research that ultimately must include studies involving human subjects. Populations that are underrepresented in medical research should be provided appropriate access to participation in research.

 

6. In medical research involving human subjects, the well-being of the individual research subject must take precedence over all other interests.

 

7. The primary purpose of medical research involving human subjects is to understand the causes, development and effects of diseases and improve preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions (methods, procedures and treatments). Even the best current interventions must be evaluated continually through research for their safety, effectiveness, efficiency, accessibility and quality.

 

8. In medical practice and in medical research, most interventions involve risks and burdens.

 

9. Medical research is subject to ethical standards that promote respect for all human subjects and protect their health and rights. Some research populations are particularly vulnerable and need special protection. These include those who cannot give or refuse consent for themselves and those who may be vulnerable to coercion or undue influence.

 

10. Physicians should consider the ethical, legal and regulatory norms and standards for research involving human subjects in their own countries as well as applicable international norms and standards. No national or international ethical, legal or regulatory requirement should reduce or eliminate any of the protections for research subjects set forth in this Declaration.

 

B. PRINCIPLES FOR ALL MEDICAL RESEARCH

 

11. It is the duty of physicians who participate in medical research to protect the life, health, dignity, integrity, right to self-determination, privacy, and confidentiality of personal information of research subjects.

 

12. Medical research involving human subjects must conform to generally accepted scientific principles, be based on a thorough knowledge of the scientific literature, other relevant sources of information, and adequate laboratory and, as appropriate, animal experimentation. The welfare of animals used for research must be respected.

 

90



 

13. Appropriate caution must be exercised in the conduct of medical research that may harm the environment.

 

14. The design and performance of each research study involving human subjects must be clearly described in a research protocol. The protocol should contain a statement of the ethical considerations involved and should indicate how the principles in this Declaration have been addressed. The protocol should include information regarding funding, sponsors, institutional affiliations, other potential conflicts of interest, incentives for subjects and provisions for treating and/or compensating subjects who are harmed as a consequence of participation in the research study. The protocol should describe arrangements for post-study access by study subjects to interventions identified as beneficial in the study or access to other appropriate care or benefits.

 

15. The research protocol must be submitted for consideration, comment, guidance and approval to a research ethics committee before the study begins. This committee must be independent of the researcher, the sponsor and any other undue influence. It must take into consideration the laws and regulations of the country or countries in which the research is to be performed as well as applicable international norms and standards but these must not be allowed to reduce or eliminate any of the protections for research subjects set forth in this Declaration. The committee must have the right to monitor ongoing studies. The researcher must provide monitoring information to the committee, especially information about any serious adverse events. No change to the protocol may be made without consideration and approval by the committee.

 

16. Medical research involving human subjects must be conducted only by individuals with the appropriate scientific training and qualifications. Research on patients or healthy volunteers requires the supervision of a competent and appropriately qualified physician or other health care professional. The responsibility for the protection of research subjects must always rest with the physician or other health care professional and never the research subjects, even though they have given consent.

 

17. Medical research involving a disadvantaged or vulnerable population or community is only justified if the research is responsive to the health needs and priorities of this population or community and if there is a reasonable likelihood that this population or community stands to benefit from the results of the research.

 

18. Every medical research study involving human subjects must be preceded by careful assessment of predictable risks and burdens to the individuals and communities involved in the research in comparison with foreseeable benefits to them and to other individuals or communities affected by the condition under investigation.

 

19. Every clinical trial must be registered in a publicly accessible database before recruitment of the first subject.

 

20. Physicians may not participate in a research study involving human subjects unless they are confident that the risks involved have been adequately assessed and can be satisfactorily managed. Physicians must immediately stop a study when the risks are found to outweigh the potential benefits or when there is conclusive proof of positive and beneficial results.

 

21. Medical research involving human subjects may only be conducted if the importance of the objective outweighs the inherent risks and burdens to the research subjects.

 

22. Participation by competent individuals as subjects in medical research must be voluntary. Although it may be appropriate to consult family members or community leaders, no competent individual may be enrolled in a research study unless he or she freely agrees.

 

23. Every precaution must be taken to protect the privacy of research subjects and the confidentiality of their personal information and to minimize the impact of the study on their physical, mental and social integrity.

 

24. In medical research involving competent human subjects, each potential subject must be adequately informed of the aims, methods, sources of funding, any possible conflicts of interest, institutional affiliations of the researcher, the anticipated benefits and potential risks of the study and the discomfort it may entail, and any other relevant aspects of the study. The potential subject must be informed of the right to refuse to participate in the study or to withdraw consent to participate at any time without reprisal. Special attention should be given to the specific information needs of individual potential subjects as well as to the methods used to deliver the information. After ensuring that the potential subject has understood the information, the physician or another appropriately qualified individual must then seek the potential subject’s freely-given informed consent, preferably in writing. If the consent cannot be expressed in writing, the non-written consent must be formally documented and witnessed.

 

25. For medical research using identifiable human material or data, physicians must normally seek consent for the collection, analysis, storage and/or reuse. There may be situations where consent would be impossible or impractical to obtain for such research or would pose a threat to the validity of the research. In such situations the research may be done only after consideration and approval of a research ethics committee.

 

91



 

26. When seeking informed consent for participation in a research study the physician should be particularly cautious if the potential subject is in a dependent relationship with the physician or may consent under duress. In such situations the informed consent should be sought by an appropriately qualified individual who is completely independent of this relationship.

 

27. For a potential research subject who is incompetent, the physician must seek informed consent from the legally authorized representative. These individuals must not be included in a research study that has no likelihood of benefit for them unless it is intended to promote the health of the population represented by the potential subject, the research cannot instead be performed with competent persons, and the research entails only minimal risk and minimal burden.

 

28. When a potential research subject who is deemed incompetent is able to give assent to decisions about participation in research, the physician must seek that assent in addition to the consent of the legally authorized representative. The potential subject’s dissent should be respected.

 

29. Research involving subjects who are physically or mentally incapable of giving consent, for example, unconscious patients, may be done only if the physical or mental condition that prevents giving informed consent is a necessary characteristic of the research population. In such circumstances the physician should seek informed consent from the legally authorized representative. If no such representative is available and if the research cannot be delayed, the study may proceed without informed consent provided that the specific reasons for involving subjects with a condition that renders them unable to give informed consent have been stated in the research protocol and the study has been approved by a research ethics committee. Consent to remain in the research should be obtained as soon as possible from the subject or a legally authorized representative.

 

30. Authors, editors and publishers all have ethical obligations with regard to the publication of the results of research. Authors have a duty to make publicly available the results of their research on human subjects and are accountable for the completeness and accuracy of their reports. They should adhere to accepted guidelines for ethical reporting. Negative and inconclusive as well as positive results should be published or otherwise made publicly available. Sources of funding, institutional affiliations and conflicts of interest should be declared in the publication. Reports of research not in accordance with the principles of this Declaration should not be accepted for publication.

 

C. ADDITIONAL PRINCIPLES FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH COMBINED WITH MEDICAL CARE

 

31. The physician may combine medical research with medical care only to the extent that the research is justified by its potential preventive, diagnostic or therapeutic value and if the physician has good reason to believe that participation in the research study will not adversely affect the health of the patients who serve as research subjects.

 

32. The benefits, risks, burdens and effectiveness of a new intervention must be tested against those of the best current proven intervention, except in the following circumstances:

 

· The use of placebo, or no treatment, is acceptable in studies where no current proven intervention exists; or

 

· Where for compelling and scientifically sound methodological reasons the use of placebo is necessary to determine the efficacy or safety of an intervention and the patients who receive placebo or no treatment will not be subject to any risk of serious or irreversible harm. Extreme care must be taken to avoid abuse of this option.

 

33. At the conclusion of the study, patients entered into the study are entitled to be informed about the outcome of the study and to share any benefits that result from it, for example, access to interventions identified as beneficial in the study or to other appropriate care or benefits.

 

34. The physician must fully inform the patient which aspects of the care are related to the research. The refusal of a patient to participate in a study or the patient’s decision to withdraw from the study must never interfere with the patient-physician relationship.

 

35. In the treatment of a patient, where proven interventions do not exist or have been ineffective, the physician, after seeking expert advice, with informed consent from the patient or a legally authorized representative, may use an unproven intervention if in the physician’s judgement it offers hope of saving life, re-establishing health or alleviating suffering. Where possible, this intervention should be made the object of research, designed to evaluate its safety and efficacy. In all cases, new information should be recorded and, where appropriate, made publicly available.

Re:

 

Understanding with respect to stock issuable in connection with services pursuant to a future Work Statement NB-2 between Nordic Bioscience Clinical Development VII a/s (“ NB ”) and Radius Health, Inc. (“ Radius ”)

 

Dear Claus:

 

Radius and NB are entering into that certain Clinical Trial Services Agreement dated as of the March 29, 2011 (the CTS Agreement ) and a certain Work Statement NB-1 under the CTS Agreement. Pursuant to Work Statement NB-1, NB has agreed to perform certain services relating to a Phase III clinical study of a Radius drug candidate known as BA058. Radius and NB are also entering into a Stock Issuance Agreement (the SI Agreement ) pursuant to which Radius is issuing certain shares of Series A-5 Preferred Stock to NB, which shares entitle the holder to receive certain stock dividends payable in shares of Series A-6 Preferred Stock. Radius proposes the following amendment to the SI Agreement to allow the parties to address the arrangements they will employ to address funding with respect to future collaborative work between them, as contemplated by the CTS Agreement. Capitalized terms used in this document and not defined herein are used with the meanings ascribed to them in the SI Agreement.

 

1.                If Radius and NB enter into a certain Work Statement NB-2 under the CTS Agreement for the performance of a “ Six Month Phase 2 Study of BA058 Presented as a Coated Transdermal Microarray Delivery System (BA058 sMTS) in the Treatment of Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis ” then NB shall be paid a portion of the purchase price for the Services that are the subject of such Work Statement NB-2 in cash and the balance shall be paid by issuance to NB of shares of Radius Series A-6 Convertible Preferred Stock. The stock issuance portion of the purchase price shall be worth at least $4,000,000 and shall be made pursuant to a SI Agreement with terms and provisions identical to those set forth in the SI Agreement except for changes necessary to reflect the then status of Radius as a public company.

 

2.                This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original with all such counterparts together constituting one instrument. Except to the extent expressly amended by this letter agreement, all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the SI Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect. The term “Agreement”, as used in the SI Agreement, shall henceforth be deemed to be a reference to the SI Agreement as amended by this letter agreement.

 



 

If you agree to the foregoing, please execute both counterparts of this letter agreement and return one fully executed counterpart to the undersigned. The other counterpart is for your records.

 

Sincerely yours,

If and when it is determined that a material quantity of such Licensed Product has been exported from Japan, the cost of such examination incurred by Nuvios shall be reimbursed by Ipsen or Teijin and Ipsen shall be required to make payment, or to cause Teijin to make payment, to Nuvios of an amount equal to [*] percent ([*]%) of the net sales of Teijin in Japan with respect to any units of Licensed Product that have been determined to have been exported from Japan.

ARTICLE 12   CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

 

12.1.                      Non-Disclosure and Non-Use. In performing under this Agreement, the Parties will share proprietary information (“Confidential Information”) with each other. A Party receiving Confidential Information under this Agreement (“Receiver”) from the other disclosing Party (“Discloser”) shall maintain such Confidential Information as follows:

 

The Receiver of a given item of Confidential Information agrees:

 

not to use such Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with the purpose of carrying out this Agreement;

 

to treat such Confidential Information as it would for its own confidential information of the same nature and importance; and

 

to take all reasonable precautions to prevent the disclosure of such Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of the Discloser, except to the extent otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 12.3 below.

 

12.2.                      Exceptions. A Receiver shall be relieved of any and all obligations under Section 12.1 regarding Confidential Information which:

 

was known to the Receiver or its Affiliates prior to receipt hereunder or under any confidentiality agreements signed prior to the Effective Date between the Parties; or

 

38



 

as demonstrated by the Receiver by competent written proof, is independently generated by the Receiver or its Affiliates by persons who have not had access to or knowledge of the Confidential Information disclosed hereunder; or

 

at the time of disclosure by the Discloser to the Receiver, was generally available to the public, or which after disclosure hereunder becomes generally available to the public through no fault attributable to the Receiver, or its Affiliates or sublicensees; or

 

is hereafter made available to the Receiver or its Affiliates for use and unrestricted disclosure by the Receiver from any third party having a right to do so.

 

12.3.                      Authorized Disclosure.

 

12.3.1.                                   Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit disclosure by a Receiver of Confidential Information to its Affiliates, employees, consultants, potential sublicensees or assignees, sublicensees, assignees, advisors, clinical investigators, contract manufacturers, potential lenders, lenders, potential investors, investors, or other third parties, if any, but only on a strict need to know basis for purposes of (i) carrying out, or causing to be carried out, any of the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) the exercise by such Receiver of any of its rights under this Agreement, and (iii) providing for the delegation of any of the obligations of such Receiver under this Agreement; provided , however , that, except in the case of any such disclosure to Receiver’s Affiliates, such disclosure occurs in the context of a written confidentiality agreement containing provisions substantially as protective as those of this Article.

1.0                                EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

BA058 is an analogue of the first 34 amino acids of human parathyroid hormone-related peptide [hPTHrP(1-34)]. BA058 was originally discovered and developed by the Beaufour-Ipsen Pharma Group under the name BIM44058. Nuvios, Inc. plans to develop BA058 for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men at risk of fracture.

 

This development plan for BA058 is premised upon a strategy of demonstrating a substantial improvement in dosing regimen over Forteo® teriparatide (rDNA origin) injection [rhPTH(1-34)] for the treatment of patients with osteoporosis, improving convenience for patients with severe osteoporosis for whom the current 18 month regimen of daily Forteo® injections is inconvenient.

 

Pre-clinical data suggest that BA058 has a better therapeutic index compared to Forteo® which should enable an improved dosing regimen cycle that is shorter in total duration, or requires less frequent injections, or which can be delivered in novel formulations. Specifically, the preclinical data support the ability to give higher doses of BA058 than Forteo® without inducing resorption or hypercalcemia.

 

Based on the commercial strategy for BA058 and the current regulatory climate (refer to the FDA guidance document for the “Development of Parathyroid Hormone for the Prevention and Treatment of Osteoporosis,” [1]), the first step is to conduct a one week, multiple ascending dose study in healthy postmenopausal women with the following goals:

 

·                   To demonstrate that BA058 has the potential for an improved therapeutic index, enabling the delivery of a more effective anabolic dose without inducing hypercalcemia in comparison to Forteo®.

 

·                   To evaluate PK, pharmacodynamics and safety after multiple doses.

 

The results from the Phase IB study will be used to select two doses of BA058 for use in a 3-month proof-of-concept (POC) study to be conducted in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. This study would be a comparative trial vs. Forteo® and is designed to answer the following questions:

 

·                   Does BA058 induce resorption to any significant degree (when compared to measures of bone formation and the corresponding changes in bone markers of the comparator )?

 

·                   What is the effect of 3 months of BA058 treatment on BMD and how does this compare to the Forteo® arm in the study? How does BA058’s effect on BMD compare to changes observed when Forteo® is given for 12-18 months (i.e., historical controls)?

 

·                   Does BA058 induce hypercalcemia and is it less than Forteo®?

 

59



 

·                   Does BA058 have acceptable tolerability, patient satisfaction, and an acceptable safety, PK and pharmacodynamic profile?

 

Target Product Profile - osteoporosis

 

Indication:

 

BA058 is indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who are at high risk of fracture.

 

BA058 is indicated to increase bone mass in men with primary or hypogonadal osteoporosis who are at high risk of fracture.

 

 

 

Efficacy:

 

Statistically equivalent or superior effect on BMD relative to Forteo®.

 

 

 

Dosing:

 

Significantly shortened dosing cycle to restore BMD (vs. 12+ months for Forteo®) when administered QD via subcutaneous administration.

 

Alternatively, significantly shortened dosing schedule than once-daily (e.g. 3 times/week).

 

Improved formulations that allow a significant advance in dosing convenience along with reduced pain.

 

 

 

Safety:

 

Absence of significant hypercalcemia with BA058 treatment.

2.0 CLINICAL PROGRAM

 

2.1                                Phase 1 Program

 

The overall objective of the Phase 1 program is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of BA058 following single and multiple dosing.

 

Phase 1a: Single ascending dose study

 

This study was completed in March 2005 and the full clinical study report is being prepared by Ipsen. Full study results are required for the pre-IND meeting with FDA and subsequent IND filing.

 

 

Title:

 

A Phase I Single-Center study in two parts assessing the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and absolute bioavailability of BIM44058, a hPTHrP(1-34) analogue, administered as single doses to healthy elderly volunteers of both genders: Part A, randomized, double-blind, dose-escalating, parallel groups, placebo-controlled design; Part B, randomized, open-label, two-period, cross-over design

 

 

 

Protocol Number:

 

2-52-52127-001

 

Phase 1b:  Multiple ascending dose study

 

The strategic goals for this study are...

 

1)                                       To demonstrate that BA058 has the potential for an improved therapeutic index, enabling the delivery of higher doses than Forteo® without inducing hypercalcemia.

 

2)                                       To evaluate PK, pharmacodynamics and safety after multiple doses.

 

These goals will be met if the compound achieves clinical endpoints that suggest no clinically meaningful incidence of hypercalcemia, and the ability to deliver a more effective anabolic dose of BA058 with good safety and tolerability than is possible with Forteo®.

 

The study will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending multiple-dose safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic study of subcutaneously administered BA058 in healthy postmenopausal women.

Assumptions for Phase 1 Study:

 

1.                                        Study will be conducted in healthy, postmenopausal women meeting stated inclusion/exclusion criteria. [Note: requires FDA agreement to proceed in this population of subjects.]

 

2.                                        All subjects will receive a subcutaneous dose of study medication (BA058 or placebo) once daily for 7 days.

 

3.                                        Study assessments:

 

·                   Physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, clinical labs (hematology, chemistry, urinalysis), adverse events, and local tolerability.

 

·                   Pharmacokinetics: full PK profile on Days 1 and 7 and trough samples on other study days.

 

·                   Pharmacodynamics: serum total and ionized calcium, phosphorus, cAMP, procollagen 1 carboxy terminal propeptide (PICP), and bone specific alkaline phosphatase. Urine calcium, phosphorus, cAMP, and creatinine execretion

 

·                   Presence of Anti-BA058 antibodies.

 

Timing:

 

1.                                        Total time involvement = 9 months from first patient in (FPI) to draft clinical study report.

 

2.                                        FPI in 1Q06 and draft clinical study report available 4Q06.

 

2.2                                Phase 2 Clinical Program

 

The Phase 2 study will be a proof-of-concept (POC) study assessing the effects of several doses of BA058 on markers of bone turnover and BMD. The primary objectives of this study are to assess the dose response of BA058, compare BA058 to Forteo®, and to select the BA058 doses that will be used in subsequent efficacy studies. The strategic goal for this trial will be to confirm the ability to deliver more effective anabolic doses of BA058 with good safety and tolerability than is possible with Forteo, with clinical endpoints that demonstrate a wider anabolic window for BA058 (i.e. greater effects on BMD at 3 months, and a higher ratio of bone formation vs. resorption) compared to Forteo.

 

Phase 2: 3-month treatment study

 

The Phase 2 study will be a randomized, double-blind, parallel group study in which study medications will be administered for a total of 3 months. The study will compare two doses of BA058 to Forteo® (20 µg) and placebo. Postmenopausal women with BMD T scores below -2.5 will potentially be eligible for the study.

Title:

 

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of BA058 on Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Women with Moderate to Severe Osteoporosis

 

 

 

Protocol Number:

 

BA058-05-002

 

The objectives of this study follow:

 

·                   Determine the safety and tolerability of BA058 after 3 months of dosing in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

 

·                   Determine the pharmacokinetics of BA058 after 3 months of dosing in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

 

·                   Determine pharmacodynamic effects (i.e., effects on mineral metabolism and biochemical markers of bone formation and resorption) after 3 months of treatment with BA058.

 

·                   Determine effects on BMD after 3 months of treatment with BA058.

 

A total of 300 eligible patients will be enrolled and randomized to one of the four treatments below:

Assumptions for Phase 2 Study:

 

1.                                        The study will be conducted in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis defined as a BMD T score below -2.5.

 

64



 

2.                                        The study consists of a (minimum) 1 month Screening Period, 3-month Treatment Period, and a one-month Follow-up Period (no study medications). Therefore, each patient is in the trial for a total of 4 months.

 

3.                                        All subjects will receive a subcutaneous dose of study medication (BA058, Forteo® 20 µg, or placebo) once daily for 3 months.

 

4.                                        All subjects to receive calcium supplements and vitamin D.

 

5.                                        Study assessments:

 

·                   Physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, clinical labs (hematology, chemistry, urinalysis), serum total and ionized calcium, phosphorus, thyroid hormones, adverse events, and local tolerability.

 

·                   Pharmacokinetics: serial PK samples taken on a subgroup of patients.

 

·                   Pharmacodynamics (i.e., biochemical markers of bone metabolism and resorption): procollagen 1 carboxy terminal propeptide (PICP), bone specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP) osteocalcin, cathepsin K, urine N telopeptide (NTX), urinary free deoxypyridinoline, nephrogenic cAMP level, urinary calcium excretion, creatinine clearance vitamin D intact PTH (1-84)

 

·                   Efficacy: measure changes in BMD (lumbar spine, hip, forearm).

 

·                   Anti-BA058 antibody.

 

6.                                        With 75 patients in each dosing arm, this study would be powered to detect a difference of 4% increase in lumbar BMD, (i.e. from a 1% difference for placebo to 5% for BA058, or from a 4% difference for Forteo® to an 8% increase for Tharp). However, anticipated differences in markers of bone formation and resorption have to be examined before final determination on the number of patients required.

 

7.                                        Sufficient BA058 is available and packaged in time to start the study.

 

We will compare BA058’s effects on markers of bone formation, resorption and on BMD with Forteo®. Also important would be the comparison of BA058’s effects on BMD to the historical effects on BMD previously reported with longer term treatment with Forteo®. If the data from this POC study shows that BA058 effect on BMD or bone formation and resorption markers is statistically better than Forteo®, then the next step would be to proceed to a Phase 3 study to evaluate long-term treatment with BA058 to assess effects on BMD and reduction of fractures.

 

Timing:

 

1.                                        Total time involvement = 24 months from first patient in (FPI) to preliminary clinical results.

2.3                                Phase 3 Clinical Program

 

The Phase 3 study will be a non-inferiority trial versus Forteo® to be conducted in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at risk of fracture.

 

Phase 3: 4-6 month BA058 treatment versus 12-month Forteo® treatment.

 

The Phase 3 study will be a randomized, double-blind study with a primary endpoint of proportion of patients with one or more new vertebral fractures. The tentative plan for this study is to assess a more convenient dosing regimen of BA058 (e.g. 4-6 months of daily SC injections) versus a 12-month treatment regimen with Forteo®. After completion of the study, an observational post-treatment follow up study will be conducted to assess whether patients continue to benefit from prior treatment with study medication.

Assumptions for Phase 3 Study:

 

1.                                        New formulation will be available for patients to self-administer study medications.

 

67



 

2.                                        The study will be conducted in postmenopausal women with BMD T scores below -2.5 and meeting all other stated inclusion/exclusion criteria.

 

3.                                        The Phase 3 study consists of a (minimum) one-month Screening Period, 12-month Treatment Period, and a one-month Follow-Up Period (no study medication). Each patient is in the trial for a total of 14 months.

 

4.                                        The extended follow-up part of the study starts once a patient completes the Phase 3 study.

 

5.                                        All subjects to receive calcium supplements and vitamin D.

 

6.                                        Study assessments.

 

·                   Physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, clinical labs (hematology, chemistry, urinalysis), serum total and ionized calcium, phosphorus, thyroid hormones, adverse events, and local tolerability.

 

·                   Pharmacokinetics: serial PK samples taken on a subgroup of patients.

 

·                   Pharmacodynamics (i.e., biochemical markers of bone metabolism and resorption): procollagen 1 carboxy terminal propeptide (PICP) bone specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP), osteocalcin, cathepsin K, urine N telopeptide (NTX) urinary free deoxypyridinoline, nephrogenic cAMP level, urinary calcium excretion, creatinine clearance, vitamin D, intact PTH (1-84).

 

·                   Efficacy: measure a reduction in the proportion of patients with new vertebral fractures following treatment. Other assessments changes in BMD (lumbar spine, hip, forearm).

 

·                   Anti-BA058 antibody.

 

Timing:

 

It’s assumed that 12 months of treatment and an additional 12-month post-study observational period would be required. Thus, the Phase 3 program from the start of the trial to completion of the long-term follow-up period, will take ~56 months.

 

Estimated Study Metrics:

 

To be determined.

 

2.4          Other Clinical Studies

 

New Formulations

 

Upon the availability of alternative formulations or delivery systems, bioavailability studies will have to be conducted to compare the old/new formulations.

 

68



 

Alternative Dosing Schedules

 

Exploring various dosing frequencies or dosing cycles (i.e., less frequently than once-daily) may need additional clinical studies to prove efficacy and safety and/or additional study arms in the currently planned studies.

 

69



 

3. FORMULATION STUDIES

 

BA058 is currently supplied for clinical use as a freeze dried lyophilizate (i.e., freebase) in glass vials which are reconstituted with sterile 0.9% sodium chloride for subcutaneous injection. A liquid/aqueous form was also developed and used for intravenous dosing in the initial clinical study.

 

The plan is to continue with the same freeze dried lyophilizate formulation for the scheduled Phase lb study in which BA058 will be administered once daily by subcutaneous injection in a controlled environment. However, prior to conducting longer term studies (i.e. the Phase II study) with BA058, another formulation (auto injector?) will have to be developed so that the product can be used by out patients with osteoporosis who will participate in these studies. Prior to use of any new formulation (or delivery system), a bioavailability study when have to be conducted to demonstrate bioequivalence with the previously used formulation.

 

4. NON-CLINICAL PROGRAM

 

4.1          Toxicology/Pharmacology

 

The currently available toxicology package includes both a 3-month rat and a 3-month monkey study. In order to proceed with longer term clinical studies, we anticipate conducting the following studies:

 

·                   12-month rat study

 

·                   12-month monkey study

 

In addition, prior to NDA submission, we need to plan and conduct a 24 month rat carcinogenicity study.

 

Studies will have to be conducted to quantitate anti-BA058 antibody production and development of neutralizing antibodies.

 

5. REGULATORY STRATEGY

 

The current plan is to have a pre-IND meeting with FDA in 4Q05 followed by filing of the full IND to FDA within one month of the meeting. This will enable start of the proposed Phase lb program in 1Q06 (estimated first patient in is January 7, 2006).

 

Other meetings with FDA would occur after results from the Phase lb study are available (Pre-Phase 2 meeting) and after results from the Phase 2 study are available (End-of-Phase 2 or Pre-Phase 3 meeting).

1.                                       INTRODUCTION

 

1.1                                Objective

 

This procedure defines the different stages and documentation required to plan, prepare and order Investigational Medicinal Products (IMP) for clinical studies from the Clinical Trials Supplies Unit (CTSU) .

 

1.2                                Scope

 

This procedure must be followed for IMP orders and any compassionate use supplies within the Ipsen group.

 

This procedure should also be enforced for clinical studies sponsored by industrial partners but where Ipsen is only responsible for the IMP supply.

 

1.3                                Roles and Responsibilities

 

·                                           CTSU must ensure that a technical and quality agreement exists between the sponsor and the manufacturing site specifying assigned responsibilities of each party in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements.

 

·                                           The Clinical Study Coordinator (CSC) is responsible for submitting to the CTSU (or CTSU contact) forecasts of intended IMP requirements and updating the amount at least quarterly.

 

·                                           The CSC is responsible for the coordination of all IMP ordering activities for each of his/her delegated studies.

 

·                                           The CTSU is responsible for providing the Technical Specification for the CSC and the Regulatory Affairs representative to approve and, to provide the final approved and signed Technical Specification to the CSC.

 

·                                           The CTSU is responsible for supplying IMP in accordance with GMP and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and to the specifications (outlined in the Technical Specification and any registered Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD) or Investigational New Drug (IND)) agreed between the CSC, CTSU, Pharmaceutical Development, QA and Regulatory Affairs.

 

·                                           The CSC and the Regulatory Affairs representative are responsible for approving master labels for the study.  There should exist a representative for labeling in each participating Ipsen or Contract Research Organisation (CRO) office, who will verify and document compliance with local regulations.  Responsibilities for the local representative for labeling are:

 

86



 

·                                           Providing translations of core labels text, when necessary, to the CSC and CTSU, which are compliant with local legal requirements.  This is done through liaison with Regulatory Affairs, where available.

 

·                                           Checking Master Labels

 

2.                                       PROCEDURE

 

2.1                                Processing the Investigational Medicinal Product Orders

 

2.1.1                      Forecasting of Investigational Medicinal Products requirements

 

At least quarterly, the CTSU sends an IMP forecast sheet to the CSC for completion and return back to the CTSU.

 

The CSC will complete forecasts of supplies up to one year in advance taking into account IMP manufacturing lead time and shelf life, treatment duration and recruitment period.

 

2.1.2                      Ordering of Bulk Formulated Product

 

A request for the manufacture of Bulk Formulated Product will be placed by the CSC as soon as possible after the Ipsen Study Approval is obtained.  The request for Bulk Formulated Product manufacture should be made using the Bulk Formulated Product Manufacturing Order (Ref. GCP004-A).

 

The request for manufacturing Bulk Formulated Product must contain the requirements for all countries participating in the study for a 12-month period.  If the study duration is expected to exceed significantly beyond 12 months, an additional order must be submitted before the 12-month period covered if the first order has finished.

 

A copy of the approved protocol synopsis must be attached to the Bulk Formulated Product Manufacturing Order (GCP004-A).

 

2.1.3                      Technical Specification

 

The CTSU will provide a first draft of the Technical Specification to the CSC for review.  The Technical Specification contains information valid for the study including:

 

·                                           Study design

 

·                                           Randomisation numbers and their syntax, strata label and period (if applicable)

 

·                                           Estimated Times Frames

 

·                                           Participating Countries

 

·                                           Description of Packs and Labelling

 

87



 

·                                           Calculation of IMP Requirements

 

·                                           Despatch Requirements

 

·                                           Return & Product destruction requirements

 

·                                           Approval of master and translated labels by Ipsen local affiliates or by central regulatory affairs.

 

The CSC completes, reviews and returns the Technical Specification to the CTSU for finalisation.  Both CSC and CTSU agree on packaging design, presentation of the IMP and on timelines for setting up the IMP.

 

The CSC and CTSU representative must ensure and document that the Technical Specification is consistent with the final approved protocol.

 

The Technical Specification represents the official agreement between the CTSU and the CSC on IMP specifications.

 

2.1.4                      Packaging Order

 

The CSC/designee must submit a Packaging Order (GCP004-B) to the CTSU once the protocol has been approved. This form is used to order a specific amount of IMP and must be used for the first supplies as well as re-supplies or additional supplies.

 

The signed and completed Packaging Order (GCP004-B) is sent back to the CSC and filed in the Trial Master File (TMF) .  A copy is kept at the CTSU.

 

2.2                                Labelling Instructions

 

Labelling text must be in local language and complaint with national laws in force.  The core label texts for all packaging units are created by the CTSU in collaboration with the CSC.  They will be defined in the Technical Specification and are compliant with the requirements of Annex 13 of The Rules Governing Medicinal Products in the European Union and US FDA 21 CFR 312.6 Labelling of an Investigational New Drug.

 

When applicable, a “local law complaint” translation (or adjustment) of the core label text must be requested by the CSC to the local responsible person for labeling.  Label translations (or adjustments) are included as part of the Technical Specification.

 

The CTSU is responsible for preparing master labels and translations provided in the Technical Specification.

 

Written approval of the master labels and translated labels must be given by the CSC and the Regulatory Affairs representative.

 

88



 

The CTSU is responsible for production and quality control of the labels produced and maintaining copies of those labels for reference.

 

2.3                                Release of Investigational Medicinal Product

 

The CTSU’s issue of the Certificate of Analysis (CofA) for the Bulk Formulated Product and the Pack Batch Release Certificate of the finished drug product, is considered the “ Technical Green Light ” for the IMP to be released.

 

These certificates are sent by the CTSU to the CSC to the CSC for archiving in the TMF.

 

The CSC authorises the release of IMP for delivery to a clinical trial site following the requirements of the IMP Release Form (Ref. GCP088-B).

 

IMP supply to a clinical trial site will be done just prior to or during the site initiation visit after the CSC has completed the IMP Despatch Form (GCP026-A) and sent it to the CTSU or an interim storage facility.  IMP may only be supplied to clinical trial sites when all required documentation, as specified in SOP GCP088, has been obtained.

 

2.4                                Use of Clinical Supplies Tracking Workflow application

 

In case the Clinical Supplies Tracking Workflow (CSTW) application is used for a clinical study, the procedure described in this SOP will still apply but the forms GCP004-A and GCP004-B are replaced by their equivalent electronic form within the CSTW.

 

When filing is required, a paper copy of the electronically approved form will be accepted.

 

2.5                                Archiving

 

2.5.1                      At Sponsor

 

All the documents must be archived in the TMF in compliance with Ipsen R&D SOPs (Ref. GEN031, GCP092) and GCP.

 

2.5.2                      At Manufacturer and/or CTSU

 

All the documents must be archived according to manufacturer’s and/or CTSU SOPs and current GMP.

1.                                       INTRODUCTION

 

1.1.                             Objective

 

To describe the procedures to be followed for handling clinical Investigational Medicinal Products (IMP) in order to comply with applicable regulations and guidelines for Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) .

 

1.2.                             Scope

 

This Research & Development (R&D) Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) applies to Ipsen R&D, Ipsen affiliates and any staff delegated the responsibility for the handling and documenting of IMP movements. Any consultants or Contract Research Organisations (CRO) required to handle IMP on behalf of Ipsen are included within the requirements of this SOP. This procedure covers the mechanisms for storage, transfer and documentation of IMP for outward despatch to investigational and other sites and their complete accountability, retrieval and destruction.

 

1.3.                             Roles and Responsibilities

 

·                                           The Clinical Trial Supplies Unit (CTSU) is responsible for ensuring that validated packaging and appropriate shipping conditions are used when an IMP is despatched directly to either an Interim Storage Facility or an investigational site.

 

·                                           The CTSU must ensure that all IMPs sent to the investigational site or Interim Storage Facility can be tracked at any time.

 

·                                           If an Interim Storage Facility is used, it is the CTSU’s responsibility to ensure that the facility has adequate controls for storage of IMP and that the packaging used is in compliance with the Technical Specification.

 

·                                           The Clinical Study Coordinator ( CSC ) , in consultation with regulatory affairs and CTSU representatives, should ensure that correct IMP import/export documentation is in place prior to IMP despatch.

 

·                                           The CSC or designee is responsible, in association with the CTSU, for ensuring that the shelf-life of the IMP available at the investigational site is adequate in the context of their intended use.

 

·                                           The CSC or designee is responsible for requesting the despatch of an IMP to investigational ( or other ) sites from the CTSU and where appropriate from any Interim Storage Facility or labelling and packaging facility that may be used.

94



 

·                                           The CSC or designee is responsible for ensuring adequate accountability of all IMP sent to the investigational site or Interim Storage Facility, during the clinical trial, and in particular before any retrieval of IMP from the investigational site for destruction.

 

·                                           Monitors are responsible for reviewing, checking any IMP accountability documentation at the investigational sites and for ensuring the accountability is adequate and for requesting the return or destruction of used ( when applicable ) and unused IMP, to or at the appropriate facility.

 

·                                           The CSC is responsible for authorising the destruction of the IMP.

 

·                                           The CTSU is responsible for providing storage for returned IMP, destroying IMP upon request and ensuring proper labelling in the event of reallocating or extending the expiry date.

 

2.                                       PROCEDURE

 

2.1.                             IMP Despatch

 

2.1.1.                   Despatch request

 

IMPs can be despatched either directly from the CTSU to an investigational site or to an Interim Storage Facility, or from an Interim Storage Facility to an investigational site. The CSC or designee must request all transfers of IMPs on the IMP Despatch Form  ( GCP026-A ) . The CSC must provide the CTSU with a list of designees, with their signatures, who are authorised to sign the IMP Despatch Form. A copy of this form must also be filed in the Trial Master File (TMF) .

 

The CTSU out source, manufacture and pack the IMP in accordance with current GMP. The CTSU must also provide the CSC or designee with Certificate of Analysis (CofA) and the Pack Batch Release Certificate for each batch of an IMP supplied which is considered the technical green light .

 

The IMP Despatch Form must be sent by the CSC or designee to the despatch office ( CTSU or Interim Storage Facility ) .

 

Additional supporting documentation can be attached to the IMP Despatch Form where appropriate ( e.g., a letter of approval from the doctor for compassionate/named patient supplies, import licence ) .

 

IMP Despatch Forms must be filed in the TMF.

 

2.1.2.                   Packaging and despatch specifications

 

Supplies will be despatched to the recipient named on the IMP Despatch Form. The Monitor must check that the required delivery date specified on the form takes into account the range of acceptable delivery dates.

 

95



 

The packaging used for the shipment must be clearly and distinctly labelled with warnings and handling instructions, according to the requirements detailed in the approved Technical Specification document for this clinical study.

 

Each package will include a Shipment Note and Acknowledgement of Receipt ( GCP026-B ) partly completed by the despatch office, CofA and/or Pack Batch Release Certificate, if required. The IMP must be dispatched as per the Technical Specification document.

 

2.1.3.                   Despatch confirmation

 

The CTSU or Interim Storage Facility must complete the despatch details at the bottom of the IMP Despatch Form and send it to the requestor and recipient to confirm despatch and the expected date of arrival. If applicable, the requestor should specify in the comments section of the IMP Despatch Form whether other people/entities have to be notified of the IMP despatch. The completed IMP Despatch Form and associated documentation is filed in the TMF.

 

Once the IMP has been delivered, the recipient at the investigational site or Interim Storage Facility must complete the relevant sections of the Shipment Note and Acknowledgement of Receipt, with date and condition of IMP on arrival and forward it to the CTSU/Interim Storage Facility. The CTSU/Interim Storage Facility will transmit the Shipment Note and Acknowledgement of Receipt to the CSC for filing in the TMF. If the Shipment Note and Acknowledgement of Receipt are not returned from the recipient, the CTSU/Interim Storage Facility must either contact the intended recipient or inform the monitor to ensure delivery has occurred and to request the Shipment Note and Acknowledgement of Receipt.

 

2.2.                             IMP accountability

 

All IMP accountability checks at site must be documented on the IMP Accountability Log ( GCP026-C ) and in the monitoring report ( R&D SOPs GCP030 and GCP089 ) . All IMP accountability at the Interim Storage Facility must be documented, and copies filed in the TMF.

 

2.3.                             IMP Storage / Shipment Incidence

 

Any deviations/problems in either storage or shipping conditions must be notified to the CSC via the IMP Incident Form  ( GCP026-F ) who should then report details of the incident to the CTSU. The Quality Assurance of the Pharmaceutical Development Dpt. will decide whether the affected IMPs can still be authorised for use. The decision must be documented and filed in the TMF.

 

2.4.                             Expired IMP and relabelling procedures

 

If IMP is due to expire within the next three months, the CSC or designee must liaise with the CTSU, to assess if the expiry date of the IMPs can be extended or if they must be replaced. Depending on the outcome, the CTSU is required to organise replacement supplies or relabelling in case of expiry date extension.

 

96



 

When an extension of expiry date has been agreed and has been documented by the CTSU, the CSC or designee has to request additional labels from the CTSU. The CSC or designee confirms with the CTSU the batch number, box/pack numbers, centre numbers and quantity of labels required.

 

The CTSU provides the CSC or designee with documentation confirming the expiry date extension and additional labels. The additional labels must be affixed to the IMP and should state the new expiry date and repeat the batch number. The additional labels may be superimposed on the old expiry date, but not on the original batch number.

 

The relabelling should be performed at an appropriately authorised manufacturing site. If agreed by the CTSU and the CSC, this may be performed at the investigational site by or under the supervision of the clinical trial site pharmacist, or designee in accordance with national regulations. Where this is not possible, it may be performed by the clinical trial monitor ( s ) . The operation should be performed in accordance with GMP principles, and should be checked by a second person. This operation must be documented on the IMP Relabelling Form  ( GCP026-E ) . This form should be duly signed and dated by the person performing the operation and the second person checking this activity, on the day of completion and filed in the batch records at the CTSU and a copy filed in the TMF.

 

2.5.                             Returned investigational product

 

When used or unused IMPs are being retrieved from the investigational site, an IMP Return/Destruction Form must be completed ( GCP026-D ) , and approved ( signed and dated ) by both a representative at the investigational site and the monitor before despatching the IMPs. The original must be sent with the returned IMPs, a copy must be sent to the CSC for filing in the TMF and a copy must remain at site.

 

Used and unused IMPs can either be destroyed on the investigational site or returned to the CTSU or Interim Storage Facility as defined in the protocol. Used or unused IMPs returned from investigational sites must be stored at either the Interim Storage Facility or at the original CTSU with labels on the containers to describe the contents. This storage must be maintained until IMP destruction has been agreed between the CSC and storage facility ( refer to section 2.6 ) .

 

If IMPs cannot be returned, the monitor should instruct the site that supplies must not be destroyed until the monitor has performed an IMP accountability check and has ensured the accountability is adequate.

 

2.6.                             Destruction of an investigational product

 

The IMP can be destroyed during and after the clinical trial, either at the investigational site, the Interim Storage Facility or at the CTSU facility, only upon formal CSC or designee’s request. The CSC is responsible for informing the CTSU or local Interim Storage Facility ( as appropriate ) when destruction of an IMP is requested through the IMP Return/Destruction Form  ( GCP026-D ) .

 

97



 

The delivered, used and recovered quantities of IMP should be recorded, reconciled and verified by the monitor for each trial site and each trial period. Destruction of unused IMPs should be carried out for a given trial site or a given trial period only after any discrepancies have been investigated and satisfactorily explained and the reconciliation has been accepted.

 

In case of long-lasting clinical studies, it is advisable to proceed with ongoing destruction of IMP s.

 

Records of IMP destruction ( including batch numbers, box/pack numbers if applicable, method of destruction and quantity destroyed ) should be signed and dated by the relevant person performing the destruction and the approval of a second person. Records of IMP destruction and corresponding documentation must be collected by the monitor and filed in the TMF ( R&D SOP GCP090 ) .

 

3.                                       CLINICAL SUPPLIES TRACKING WORKFLOW APPLICATION

 

In case the Clinical Supplies Tracking Workflow (CSTW) application is used for a clinical study, the procedure described in this SOP will still apply but the forms GCP026-A and GCP026-B are replaced by their equivalent electronic form within the CSTW. When filing is required, a paper copy of the electronically approved form will be accepted.

Exhibit A

 

Development and Supply of Ph II Supply of BA058 Ready to Use Pen

Injection and cGMP Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient for Radius

 

Proposal Dated 31 Mar 2006

 

Key Deliverables;

 

Multi-dose, ready to use Injection for administration using commercially available Pen injector, to deliver a fixed dose between 40-100mcg per day, with 28 days doses in 1.5ml cartridge.

 

Stretch objectives for timelines agreed at

 

·                                           Confirm up to 3 selected formulations for animal PK study and manufacture of non clinical/stability lots at contractor in June/July

·                                           Supply Ph II to allow first patient dosing on Dec 1 2006 (with Ph II of 75 patients x 2 active doses; 3 months treatment

·                                           Supply c 10g API for stability testing in May 2006

·                                           Remaining c 40g clinical use API at end June 2006

 

Ipsen scope of work includes all activities to develop and supply bulk cartridges and selected pen for Ph II supplies, in bulk, which would then be labelled, packaged. released and distributed by Radius. At this time, the Radius-approved budget covers these activities. Further work (beyond supply of Ph II in 2006) will require a separate approval from Radius and Ipsen.

 

Beyond supply of Ph II in 2006, stability testing activities would continue into 2007/2008, to allow Radius updating of shelf-life for product in IMPDs.

 

Technology transfer support has been budgeted at up to 1.5 FTEs to cover all API, product, process, device, analytical and regulatory support work. This will be completed in 2007, with no Ipsen resource for this work required beyond 2007.

 

Outline of Plan for Product Development

 

Various antimicrobial preservatives will be screened for compatibility with a 2mg/ml solution formulation of BA058. By testing to pharmacopoeia) tests for anti-microbial preservative activity, and short term, accelerated stability tests, up to three selected formulations will be chosen for further evaluation.

 

No placebo formulation will be developed, (including preservative nor stability data) for any of the formulations.

 

The program includes manufacture of stability test batches at contract manufacturer, filled into cartridges, and longer term stability tests and confirmation of anti-microbial efficacy.

 



 

From these data, the optimal formulation for Ph II supply would then be chosen and clinical supplies produced, using suitably validated process. The Ph II manufacturing scale of c 2,000 cartridges, with a batch size of 3.5 litres is assumed.

 

The plan assumes one Ph II clinical lot made at the selected contractor, for clinical supply (2 arms x 75 patients x 3 cartridges per patient = c 500 cartridges, plus samples and retain samples = 1,000 cartridges) with remaining c 1,000 units for stability tests.

 

Overall Timelines

A.                                    Ipsen and Radius are parties to that certain License Agreement dated September 27, 2005 (the “ License Agreement ”).

 

B.                                      Within the framework of the License Agreement, Ipsen and Radius have entered into a pharmaceutical development agreement to develop a multidose injection for BIM 44058 dated as of January 2, 2006 (the “ Pharmaceutical Development Agreement ”) pursuant to which Ipsen performs certain research and development tasks and activities in view of developing a new formulation of Licensed Compound and/or Licensed Product.

 

C.                                      Since (i) the work to be performed by Ipsen has taken longer than originally planned in the Work Plan of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement and (ii) Radius wishes Ipsen to perform additional work to the work initially set out in the Work Plan, Ipsen and Radius have decided to further extend the duration and the scope of the Work Plan and to provide for the consideration relating to such an extension under an amendment to the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement (this “ Amendment n°1 ”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the performance of the covenants herein contained, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

 

1.                                        In this Amendment n°1, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the capitalized words and phrases shall have the same meaning as in the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement.

 


* Confidential Treatment Requested by the Registrant. Redacted Portion Filed Separately with the Commission.

 

1



 

2.                                        The December 31, 2006 deadline initially agreed upon for the performance by Ipsen or its subcontractors of all the work set out in the Work Plan as it exists prior to this Amendment (the “Original Work Plan”) and its payment by Radius, is extended to May 31, 2007.

 

For sake of clarity, any reference to the date of December 31, 2006 in Article 10 of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement which relates to the performance of the Original Work Plan shall be replaced by and extended to May 31, 2007. The budget agreed upon in respect to all the work described in the Original Work Plan shall remain unchanged, except for the over overrun of €98,000 approved by Radius in Q4, 2006.

 

3.                                        The Work Plan is amended so as to include the work described in Appendix A to this Amendment n°1 (the “Extended Work Plan” ), some of which is to be performed in 2007 and the rest in 2008. For clarity, all references to the Work Plan in the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement shall be deemed to include all work described in the Extended Work Plan, as well as the work described in the Original Work Plan. Should Radius wish Ipsen to perform any other work in addition to the 2007 and 2008 activities described in the Extended Work Plan, Radius and Ipsen shall enter into a new agreement or amendment.

 

4.                                        Payments:

 

(a) Subject to any modification of the budget included in the Extended Work Plan to be prior agreed in writing by the parties by Mike Dey, Vice-President, Pharmaceutical Development for Ipsen and by Nick Harvey, Chief Financial Officer to Radius or by any other representative designated by the relevant Party, the total amount to be paid by Radius to Ipsen in connection with the research activities and tasks pursuant to the Extended Work Plan and this Amendment n°1 shall be as specified in the here attached Appendix B, that is to say:

 

(i) The total amount to be paid by Radius to Ipsen in connection with the 2007 activities described Appendix A shall be:

 

·                                           Seventy three thousand euros (73K€) for the additional activities on Drug Substance;

 

·                                           Two hundred thirty four thousand four hundred euros (234.4K€) for additional activities on Drug Product;

 

(ii) The total amount to be paid by Radius to Ipsen in connection with the 2008 activities described in Appendix A shall be:

 

·                                           Twenty eight thousand euros (28K€) for the additional activities on Drug Substance;

 

·                                           One hundred and ninety six thousand euros (196K€) for additional activities on Drug Product;

 

Such total amount includes all costs in connection with such research activities, including costs of materials, supplies, services, personnel, subcontractors and overhead, regardless of whether such research activities are performed by Ipsen or by a subcontractor or both. The budget included in the Extended Work Plan as described in Appendix B to this Amendment shows the breakdown by calendar quarter of such total amounts in Euros.

 

2



 

(b) Ipsen shall invoice Radius no later than thirty days after the end of each calendar quarter for the amount corresponding to actual FTE time spent as per timesheets incurred plus actual external cost bills received and approved by Ipsen during the elapsed quarter, as shall in each case be reported in reasonable detail on the invoice annex. Radius shall make payment of each invoice within thirty days after receipt thereof in Euros.

 

(c) Without the prior written consent of Radius, in no event shall Ipsen invoice Radius for an amount due in respect of any calendar year that is greater than the amount budgeted for such calendar year in the Extended Work Plan plus the ten percent (10%) limit defined in article 4(d) of this Amendment n°1. In addition, and notwithstanding anything expressed or implied in this Agreement to the contrary (including without limitation, the Extended Work Plan), in no event shall Radius have any obligation to make payments to Ipsen pursuant to this Amendment n°1 for any work done by Ipsen at any time after December 31, 2008 unless Radius shall have authorized in writing any such work.

 

Radius shall pay for all work in respect of which Ipsen has entered into legally binding commitments with subcontractors and which occurs before December 31, 2008, that may not be cancelled by Ipsen without incurring penalties, provided that all of such work is within the framework of the Extended Work Plan and the cost of such work is within the budget included in the Extended Work Plan.

 

The remaining samples from stability studies will be made available for Radius to ship to Radius nominated contract laboratory by December 31, 2008. Should Radius request in writing that Ipsen conduct work on Radius behalf, Ipsen will be under no obligation to conduct such work.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding any overruns which have been approved by Radius with respect to work under the Original Work Plan, should external costs incurred by Ipsen in relation to the performance of 2007 or 2008 activities described in the Extended Work Plan be more than as specified in Appendix B hereby attached for such activities, Radius shall reimburse Ipsen such additional costs up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the relevant annual amount described in Appendix B for the performance of the specific tasks that resulted in such additional costs. In addition, should internal costs incurred by Ipsen in relation to performance of the Work Plan be more than as specified in Exhibit B due to an increase in the number of FTE’s required (but not the cost per FTE), Radius shall reimburse Ipsen such additional costs up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the relevant annual amount described in Appendix B for the performance of the specific tasks that resulted in such additional costs. In either case, any reimbursement of costs in excess of such percentage will have to be prior agreed by Radius and, in the absence of any such prior agreement by Radius, shall be the responsibility of Ipsen. Ipsen shall use all reasonable efforts to avoid any such cost overruns. For clarity, the maximum ten adjustment permitted in 2007 will be of thirty thousand seven hundred (30.7) euros and in 2008 of twenty two thousand four hundred (22.4) euros. Any reimbursement of costs in excess of such percentage will have to be prior agreed by Radius and, absent any such prior agreement by Radius, shall be the responsibility of Ipsen.

5.                                        This Amendment n°1 shall enter into force retroactively upon its signature as of January 1 st , 2007 and shall remain in full force and in effect until complete performance of the Extended Work Plan or termination of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement in accordance with its terms.

 

6.                                        All other terms and conditions of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to this Amendment n°1 which is made part of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement.

 

7.                                        This Amendment n°1 shall be governed by, interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without regard to the conflicts of law principles, and shall not be governed by the United Nations Conventions of International Contracts on the Sale of Goods (the Vienna Convention).

CONFIDENTIAL— Execution Copy

 

LICENSE AGREEMENT AMENDMENT NO. 1

 

This Amendment No.°1 (the “ Amendment No. 1 ”) is entered into on September 12, 2007 (the “ Amendment Date ”) by and between Radius Health Inc., a Delaware Corporation, formerly known as Nuvios, Inc. with its principal office at 300 Technology Square 5 th  floor, Cambridge, MA 02139, United States of America, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (“ Radius ”), and SCRAS S.A.S., a French corporation, with its principal office at 42 rue du Docteur Blanche, 75016 Paris, France on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (“ Ipsen ”).

 

RECITALS

 

1.                            Ipsen and Radius (the “ Parties ”) entered into the certain license agreement as of September 27, 2005 (the “ Agreement ”).

 

2.                            The Parties wish to enter into this Amendment No. 1 to amend certain provisions of the Agreement in connection with the grant by Radius to Novartis International Pharmaceutical Ltd. (“ Novartis ”) of certain option rights to take a sublicense from Radius.

 

NOW THEREFORE , in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Amendment No. 1, the Parties agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE 1  —  CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

 

This Amendment No. 1 shall enter into force upon the completion of the following cumulative conditions precedent:

 

1.1          Radius and Novartis enter into an option agreement whereby Novartis will have an option to license certain intellectual property rights from Radius under terms and conditions to be agreed (the “ Option Agreement ”); and

 

1.2          Radius and Novartis agree on the terms of a fully-fledged license agreement which will be attached to the Option Agreement (the “ Radius-Novartis Agreement ”) as set forth in the Option Agreement; and

 

1.3          Novartis exercises its option under the Option Agreement within six (6) months after Novartis has received the Study Report (as defined in the Option Agreement) and Radius and Novartis execute the Radius-Novartis Agreement.

 

In the event the condition precedent in paragraph 1.1 is not completed by 31 December 2007, or the condition precedent in paragraph 1.2 is not completed by 31 March 2008 or the condition precedent in paragraph 1.3 is not completed as set forth above, this Amendment No. 1 shall be deemed null and void at the later date relating to the completion of these three conditions precedent as set forth above.

 

ARTICLE 2  —  AMENDMENTS TO CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT

 

2.1          Third Party Payments. Section 4.3 of the Agreement is amended to read in full as follows:

 



 

“4.3 Adjustments Related to Third Party Payments. If, in connection with any Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, Nuvios is obligated to remit payments to third parties in relation to intellectual property rights owned by such third parties including when Nuvios is obliged to license in formulation technology from third party for use with the Licensed Product and/or as determined pursuant to Article 11.7 of this Agreement Nuvios shall be permitted to offset against payments due to Ipsen under this Agreement up to fifty percent (50%) of any payments due to such third parties during any calendar year, provided however that this offset does not result in a reduction of more than 50% of the royalty payments that would otherwise have been due to Ipsen in any calendar year.

 

If (i) in connection with any Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, Novartis is obligated to remit payment to third parties in relation to intellectual property rights owned by such third parties including when Novartis is obliged to license in formulation technology from third party for use with the Licensed Product and/or as determined pursuant to Article 11.7 of this Agreement (the “ NVS Third Party Payments ”) and (ii) pursuant to the Radius-Novartis Agreement, Novartis is entitled to deduct part or all of NVS Third Party Payments from the payments due by Novartis to Nuvios (the “ Novartis Deduction ”), Nuvios shall be permitted to offset against royalty payments due to Ipsen under this Agreement up to fifty percent (50%) of the Novartis Deduction during any calendar year, provided however that (a) this offset does not result in a reduction of more than 50% of the royalty payments that would otherwise have been due to Ipsen in any calendar year and (b) this offset is not superior to 25% of the NVS Third Party Payments.

 

In no event shall the provisions of the two (2) above paragraphs be applied cumulatively and in no event shall any offset(s) pursuant to this Section 4.3 result in a reduction of more than 50% of the royalty payments that would otherwise have been due to Ipsen in any calendar year.

 

2.2          Royalty Term. Section 1.59 of the Agreement is amended to read in full as follows:

 

“1.59 Royalty Term shall mean for each Licensed Product and each country of the Territory, the later of (a) expiration of the last to expire Licensed Product Claim in such country with respect to such Licensed Product and (b) ten (10) years from the First Commercial Sale in such country of such Licensed Product. Notwithstanding anything express or implied in the foregoing provisions of this definition, if, with respect to any Licensed Product in any country of the Territory, on the date that is ten (10) years from the First Commercial Sale in such country of such Licensed Product, there is no Valid Claim of an issued patent within the Ipsen Patent Rights or the Joint Patent Rights that Covers such Licensed Product in such country, then the Royalty Term for such Licensed Product in such country shall automatically expire and terminate on such date.

 

2.3          Payment of Share of Sublicense. Section 3.3 is revised to include the following text in the header to the right hand column of the table:

 

“Share payable within seven (7) days following receipt of payments from Novartis under the Radius-Novartis Agreement. Nuvios shall issue the invoice to Novartis promptly upon the occurrence of the event triggering the payments and shall inform Ipsen promptly upon receipt of the corresponding payments from Novartis. In case of a failure of Novartis to pay the due sums to Nuvios within the delay as set forth in the Radius-Novartis Agreement, Nuvios shall pay the

 

2



 

Share due to Ipsen within seven (7) days upon expiry of the delay granted to Novartis for the payment due to Nuvios as set forth in the Radius-Novartis Agreement.”

 

2.4          Treatment of Sublicensee on Termination. A new Section 15.7 is added to the Agreement to read in full as follows:

 

“15.7 Sublicenses. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event this Agreement is terminated by Ipsen pursuant to Section 15.2 and in the event such termination does not result from a material breach of Nuvios’ obligations which results from the performance or the lack of performance by Novartis of its obligations under the Radius-Novartis Agreement, Radius-Novartis Agreement shall be novated from Nuvios to Ipsen and shall become a direct license between Ipsen and Novartis under the following conditions: (i) Novartis agrees to such novation in a writing pursuant to which it acknowledges each of the statements in the following clauses (ii)-(iv), (ii) Ipsen shall have all Nuvios’ rights as provided in the Radius-Novartis Agreement; (iii) Ipsen shall not be bound by obligations towards Novartis in excess of its obligations as set forth in this Agreement including in particular but without limitation Ipsen shall not assume, and shall not be responsible to Novartis for any representations and warranties other than the ones stated in this Agreement, and (iv) Novartis shall remain bound by the terms and conditions of the Radius-Novartis Agreement as if the Radius-Novartis Agreement had been entered into by Ipsen and Novartis.

 

2.5          Payments and Financial Reporting.

 

(a) Section 1.39 of the Agreement is amended to read in full as follows:

 

Net Sales ” means the net sales made by Nuvios, Novartis and any of their Affiliates or sublicensees (the “ Selling Party ”) of the Licensed Product sold to Third Parties other than sublicensees in bona fide, arm’s-length transactions, as determined in accordance with the Selling Party’s usual and customary accounting methods, which are in accordance with its Accounting Standards as consistently applied by such Selling Party: (a) in the case of any sale or other disposal of a Licensed Product between or among Novartis and its Affiliates or sublicensees, for resale, Net Sales shall be calculated only on the value charged or invoiced on the first arm’s length sale thereafter to a Third Party; (b) in the case of any sale which is not invoiced or is delivered before invoice, Net Sales shall be calculated at the time of shipment or when the Licensed Product is paid for, if paid for before shipment or invoice; (c) in the case of any sale or other disposal for value, such as barter or counter-trade, of any Licensed Product, or part thereof other than in an arm’s-length transaction exclusively for money, Net Sales shall be calculated on the value of non-cash consideration received or the fair market price (if higher) of the Licensed Product in the country of sale or disposal; and (d) in the event the Licensed Product is sold as a Bundled Licensed Product, the Net Sales of the Licensed Product, for the purposes of determining royalty payments, shall be determined by multiplying the Net Sales of the Bundled Licensed Product by the fraction, A/(A+B) where A is the weighted (by sales volume) average sale price in a particular country of the Licensed Product when sold separately in finished form and B is the weighted average sale price in that country of the other Licensed Product(s) sold separately in finished form. In the event that such average sale price cannot be determined for both the Licensed Product and the other Licensed Product(s) in Bundled Licensed Product, Net Sales for purposes of determining royalty payments shall be agreed by the Parties based on the relative value contributed by each component, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld. For the avoidance of doubt, sales between Novartis, its Affiliates, sublicensees and designees shall not be considered Net Sales (unless such Person is the end user of the Licensed Product), which shall be calculated on Net Sales of Novartis, its Affiliates, sublicensees and designees to independent third party customers.”

Nuvios may delay the payment of royalties on Net Sales until a maximum of ninety (90) days after the end of each Accounting Period provided that Nuvios shall pay to Ipsen interest on such late payment between the 60 th  and the effective date of payment of the royalties, at the rate of EURIBOR 1 month plus 0.50% on sales in EURO and LIBOR 1 month USD plus 0.5% on sales in USD.”

 

2.6          No other changes. Except to the extent expressly amended by this Amendment No. 1, all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

 

AMENDMENT N°2 TO PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT*

AGREEMENT

 

BETWEEN

 

BEAUFOUR IPSEN INDUSTRIE S.A.S. , a French corporation incorporated under the laws of France, located at rue d’Ethe Virton, 28100, France, duly represented by Jean-Pierre Dubuc, President,

 

hereinafter referred to as “ Ipsen ”, on the one hand,

 

AND

 

RADIUS HEALTH Inc. , a United States corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, with its principal office at 300 Technology Square-5th Floor, Cambridge, MA, USA and formerly known as Nuvios, Inc., duly represented by Richard Lyttle, Chief Executive Officer,

 

hereinafter referred to as “ Radius ”, on the other hand.

 

WHEREAS

 

A.                                    Ipsen and Radius are parties to that certain License Agreement dated September 27, 2005 (the “ License Agreement ”).

 

B.                                      Within the framework of the License Agreement, Ipsen and Radius have entered into a pharmaceutical development agreement to develop a multidose injection for BIM 44058 dated as of January 2, 2006 (the “ Pharmaceutical Development Agreement ”) pursuant to which Ipsen performs certain research and development tasks and activities in view of developing a new formulation of Licensed Compound and/or Licensed Product.

 

C.                                      Ipsen and Radius have decided to further extend the duration and the scope of the Work Plan and to provide for the consideration relating to such an extension under an amendment to the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement ( “ Amendment n°1 ”).

 

D.                                     Radius has requested, and Ipsen had agreed to manufacture some further stability batches and therefore to further extend the duration and the scope of the Work Plan under a second amendment to the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement (this “ Amendment n°2 ”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the performance of the covenants herein contained, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

 

1.                                       In this Amendment n°2, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the capitalized words and phrases shall have the same meaning as in the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement and in Amendment n°1.

 


* Confidential Treatment Requested by the Registrant. Redacted Portion Filed Separately with the Commission.

 



 

2.                                       The May 31, 2007 deadline agreed upon for the performance by Ipsen or its subcontractors of all the work set out in the Extended Work Plan further to Amendment n°1 and its payment by Radius, is extended to December 31, 2012.

 

For sake of clarity, any reference to the date of December 31, 2006 in Article 10 of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement and May 31, 2007 in the Amendment n°1 which relates to the performance of the Original Work Plan and the Extended Work Plan shall be replaced by and extended to December 31, 2012. The budget agreed upon in respect to all the work described in the Original Work Plan and the Extended Work Plan shall remain unchanged, except for the over overrun of €98,000 approved by Radius in Q4, 2006.

 

3.                                       The Work Plan is amended so as to include the work described in Appendix A to this Amendment n°2 (the “ Second Extended Work Plan ”). For clarity, all references to the Work Plan in the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement shall be deemed to include all work described in the Extended Work Plan, the Second Extended Work Plan as well as the work described in the Original Work Plan. Should Radius wish Ipsen to perform any other work in addition to the activities described in the Second Extended Work Plan, Radius and Ipsen shall enter into a new agreement or amendment.

 

4.                                       Timelines described in Appendix A are subject to the execution by Ipsen of an amendment to its existing agreement with Vetter.

 

5.                                       Activities related to the manufacture of Phase III clinical batches by Vetter and tested by Ipsen in the Second Extended Work Plan as identified in paragraphs 2, 4, 5 of Appendix A shall not be commenced by Ipsen unless authorized in writing by Nick Harvey, Chief Financial Officer of Radius or other representative designated in writing by Radius.

 

6.                                       Payments:

 

(a)                                   Subject to any modification of the budget included in the Second Extended Work Plan to be prior agreed in writing by the parties by Mike Dey, Vice-President, Pharmaceutical Development for Ipsen and by Nick Harvey, Chief Financial Officer to Radius or by any other representative designated by the relevant Party, the total amount to be paid by Radius to Ipsen in connection with the research activities and tasks pursuant to the Second Extended Work Plan and this Amendment n°2 shall be as specified in the here aftached Appendix A. Such total amount includes all costs in connection with such research activities, including costs of materials, supplies, services, personnel, subcontractors and overhead, regardless of whether such research activities are performed by Ipsen or by a subcontractor or both. The budget included in the Second Extended Work Plan as described in Appendix A to this Amendment n°2 shows the breakdown by calendar quarter of such total amounts in Euros.

 

(b)                                  Ipsen shall invoice Radius no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter for the amount corresponding to actual FTE time spent as per

 

2



 

timesheets incurred plus actual external cost bills received and approved by Ipsen during the elapsed quarter, as shall in each case be reported in reasonable detail on the invoice annex. Radius shall make payment of each invoice within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof in Euros.

 

(c)                                   Without the prior written consent of Radius, in no event shall Ipsen invoice Radius for an amount due in respect of any calendar year that is greater than the amount budgeted for such calendar year in the Second Extended Work Plan plus the ten percent (10%) limit defined in article 4(d) of this Amendment n°2. In addition, and notwithstanding anything expressed or implied in this Amendment n°2 to the contrary (including without limitation, the Second Extended Work Plan), in no event shall Radius have any obligation to make payments to Ipsen pursuant to this Amendment n°2 for any work done by Ipsen at any time after December 31, 2012 unless Radius shall have authorized in writing any such work.

 

Radius shall pay for all work in respect of which Ipsen has entered into legally binding commitments with subcontractors and which occurs before December 31, 2012, that may not be cancelled by Ipsen without incurring penalties, provided that all of such work is within the framework of the Second Extended Work Plan and the cost of such work is within the budget included in the Second Extended Work Plan.

 

The remaining samples from stability studies will be made available for Radius to ship to Radius nominated contract laboratory by December 31, 2012. Should Radius request in writing that Ipsen conduct work on Radius behalf, Ipsen will be under no obligation to conduct such work.

 

(d)                                  Should external costs incurred by Ipsen in relation to the performance of the activities described in the Second Extended Work Plan be more than as specified in Appendix A hereby attached for such activities, Radius shall reimburse Ipsen such additional costs up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the relevant annual amount described in Appendix A for the performance of the specific tasks that resulted in such additional costs. In addition, should internal costs incurred by Ipsen in relation to performance of the Second Extended Work Plan be more than as specified in Appendix A due to an increase in the number of FTE’s required (but not the cost per FTE), Radius shall reimburse Ipsen such additional costs up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the relevant annual amount described in Appendix A for the performance of the specific tasks that resulted in such additional costs. In either case, any reimbursement of costs in excess of such percentage will have to be prior agreed by Radius and, in the absence of any such prior agreement by Radius, shall be the responsibility of Ipsen. Ipsen shall use all reasonable efforts to avoid any such cost overruns.

 

7.                                       This Amendment n°2 shall enter into force retroactively upon its signature as of January 1st, 2009 and shall remain in full force and in effect until complete performance of the

 

3



 

Second Extended Work Plan or termination of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement in accordance with its terms.

 

8.                                       All other terms and conditions of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to this Amendment n°2 which is made part of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement.

 

9.                                       This Amendment n°2 shall be governed by, interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without regard to the conflicts of law principles, and shall not be governed by the United Nations Conventions of International Contracts on the Sale of Goods (the Vienna Convention).

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Amendment n°2 to be duly executed by their respective duly authorized representatives:

BETWEEN

 

BEAUFOUR IPSEN INDUSTRIE S.A.S. , a French corporation incorporated under the laws of France, located at rue d’Ethe Virton, 28100, France, duly represented by Jean-Pierre Dubuc, President,

 

hereinafter referred to as “ Ipsen” , on the one hand,

 

AND

 

RADIUS HEALTH Inc., a United-States corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, United Sates, with its principal office at 300 Technology Square-5 th  Floor, Cambridge, MA, USA and formerly known as Nuvios, Inc., duly represented by Richard Lyttle, Chief Executive Officer,

 

hereinafter referred to as “Radius” , on the other hand.

 

WHEREAS

 

A.                                    Ipsen and Radius are parties to that certain License Agreement dated September 27, 2005 (the “ License Agreement ”).

 

B.                                      Within the framework of the License Agreement, Ipsen and Radius have entered into a pharmaceutical development agreement to develop a multidose injection for BIM 44058 dated as of January 2, 2006 (the “Pharmaceutical Development Agreement ”) pursuant to which Ipsen performs certain research and development tasks and activities in view of developing a new formulation of Licensed Compound and/or Licensed Product.

 

C.                                      Ipsen and Radius have decided to further extend the duration and the scope of the Work Plan and to provide for the consideration relating to such an extension under an amendment to the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement ( “ Amendment n°1 ”).

 

D.                                     Radius has requested, and Ipsen had agreed to manufacture some further stability batches and therefore to further extend the duration and the scope of the Work Plan under a second amendment to the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement (“ Amendment n°2 ”).

 

E.                                       The manufacture of Phase III clinical batches under the Second Extended Work Plan as identified in paragraphs 2, 4, 5 of Appendix A of Amendment n°2 was not commenced by Ipsen with authorization in writing by a Radius representative prior to the effective date of this Amendment n°3. However, the stability batches and related stability testing activities (the “Reduced Second

 


* Confidential Treatment Requested by the Registrant. Redacted Portion Filed Separately with the Commission.

 



 

Extended Work Plan”) as identified in paragraphs 1 and 3 of Appendix A of Amendment n°2 were completed or are ongoing pursuant to the terms of Amendment n°2. Accordingly, Amendment n°2 shall remain in full force and in effect until complete performance of the Reduced Second Extended Work Plan or termination of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement in accordance with its terms.

 

F.                                       Radius has requested, and Ipsen had agreed to manufacture Phase III batches and to upgrade analytical methods to NDA filing levels for purity/impurities testing to meet full ICH requirements and therefore to further extend the duration and the scope of the Work Plan under a third amendment to the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement (this “ Amendment n°3 ”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the performance of the covenants herein contained, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

 

1.               In this Amendment n°3, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the capitalized words and phrases shall have the same meaning as in the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement and in Amendment n°1 and Amendment n°2 .

 

2.               The Work Plan is amended so as to include the work described in Appendix A to this Amendment n°3 (the “ Third Extended Work Plan ”). For clarity, all references to the Work Plan in the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement shall be deemed to include all work described in the Extended Work Plan, the Reduced Second Extended Work Plan as well as the work described in the Original Work Plan. Should Radius wish Ipsen to perform any other work in addition to the activities described in the Third Extended Work Plan, Radius and Ipsen shall enter into a new agreement or amendment.

 

3.               Timelines described in Appendix A are subject to the execution by Ipsen of an amendment to its existing agreement with Vetter.

 

4.               Activities related to the manufacture of additional Phase III clinical batches by Vetter and tested by Ipsen in 2011 or 2012 and any batch Scale Up Plans in the Third Extended Work Plan as identified in paragraphs 2 and 4 of Appendix A shall not be commenced by Ipsen unless authorized in writing by Nick Harvey, Chief Financial Officer of Radius or other representative designated in writing by Radius.

 

5.               Payments:

 

(a)           Subject to any modification of the budget included in the Third Extended Work Plan to be prior agreed in writing by the parties by Mike Dey, Vice-President, Pharmaceutical Development for Ipsen and by Nick Harvey, Chief Financial

 

2



 

Officer to Radius or by any other representative designated by the relevant Party, the total amount to be paid by Radius to Ipsen in connection with the research activities and tasks pursuant to the Third Extended Work Plan and this Amendment n°3 shall be as specified in the here attached Appendix A. Such total amount includes all costs in connection with such research activities, including costs of materials, supplies, services, personnel, subcontractors and overhead, regardless of whether such research activities are performed by Ipsen or by a subcontractor or both. The budget included in the Third Extended Work Plan as described in Appendix A to this Amendment n°3 shows the breakdown by calendar quarter of such total amounts in Euros.

 

(b)          Ipsen shall invoice Radius no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter for the amount corresponding to actual FTE time spent as per timesheets incurred plus actual external cost bills received and approved by Ipsen during the elapsed quarter, as shall in each case be reported in reasonable detail on the invoice annex. Radius shall make payment of each invoice within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof in Euros.

 

(c)           Without the prior written consent of Radius, in no event shall Ipsen invoice Radius for an amount due in respect of any calendar year that is greater than the amount budgeted for such calendar year in the Third Extended Work Plan plus the ten percent (10%) limit defined in article 4(d) of this Amendment n°3. In addition, and notwithstanding anything expressed or implied in this Amendment n°3 to the contrary (including without limitation, the Third Extended Work Plan), in no event shall Radius have any obligation to make payments to Ipsen pursuant to this Amendment n°3 for any work done by Ipsen at any time after December 31, 2014 unless Radius shall have authorized in writing any such work.

 

Radius shall pay for all work in respect of which Ipsen has entered into legally binding commitments with subcontractors and which occurs before December 31, 2014, that may not be cancelled by Ipsen without incurring penalties, provided that all of such work is within the framework of the Third Extended Work Plan and the cost of such work is within the budget included in the Third Extended Work Plan.

 

The remaining samples from stability studies will be made available for Radius to ship to Radius nominated contract laboratory by December 31, 2014. Should Radius request in writing that Ipsen conduct work on Radius behalf, Ipsen will be under no obligation to conduct such work.

 

(d)          Should external costs incurred by Ipsen in relation to the performance of the activities described in the Third Extended Work Plan be more than as specified in Appendix A hereby attached for such activities, Radius shall reimburse Ipsen such additional costs up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the relevant annual amount described in Appendix A for the performance of the specific tasks that resulted in such additional costs. In addition, should internal costs incurred by Ipsen in relation to performance of the Third Extended Work Plan be more than as specified in Appendix A due to an increase in the number of FTE’s required (but not the cost per FTE), Radius shall reimburse Ipsen such additional costs up to a

 

3



 

maximum of ten percent (10%) of the relevant annual amount described in Appendix A for the performance of the specific tasks that resulted in such additional costs.  In either case, any reimbursement of costs in excess of such percentage will have to be prior agreed by Radius and, in the absence of any such prior agreement by Radius, shall be the responsibility of Ipsen. Ipsen shall use all reasonable efforts to avoid any such cost overruns.

 

6.               This Amendment n°3 shall enter into force retroactively upon its signature and shall remain in full force and in effect until complete performance of the Third Extended Work Plan or termination of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement in accordance with its terms.

 

7.               All other terms and conditions of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to this Amendment n°3 which is made part of the Pharmaceutical Development Agreement.

 

8.               This Amendment n°3 shall be governed by, interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without regard to the conflicts of law principles, and shall not be governed by the United Nations Conventions of International Contracts on the Sale of Goods (the Vienna Convention).

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Amendment n°2 to be duly executed by their respective duly authorized representatives:

3 API needed for Manufacture and Stability Testing

 

Based on 3 x 5000 cartridge lots, each requiring 22g API, gives 66g pure peptide weight, for manufacture of lots in 2010.  Method upgrades would require 2g peptide.

 

Reference Standard from Lonza sourced API will be required to QC test and stability test product.  Depending on how supplied, the quantities would vary from 2g bulk or e.g. 250 vials of 1mg.

4. Scale Up Plans

 

The process currently proven has a maximum batch size of ~500 cartridges.  To scale-up process, dedicated compounding vessel/equipment will be required.  Two facilities/filling scales are available for future development with approximately 40- 50,000 maximum and 100,000 cartridges.

 

Based on initial annual requirements of 100,000 rising over [*] years to 1,000,000 cartridges per year, a batch size of 25,000 to ~ 50,000 would allow a step in scale of within [*]-[*]x, and [*]-[*] lots per year.  Batch size of 5,000 cartridges requires [*]g peptide, so increasing to 40,000 or 100,000 would require either ~[*]g or ~ [*]g of pure peptide.

 

Once Radius estimated volumes and preferences were confirmed (assumed by end May 10), Vetter plan for scale-up would be developed for Radius agreement (assumed Sep 10) for implementation in 2011, or later.

 

This option would allow a single scaled up lot made in 2011 to re-supply the entire remaining Ph III program in 2011, with an assumed 24m expiry.  As stability data confirms good stability of the product, this expiry date could also be extended.  This option would also provide for one additional full ICH stability study to be conducted.

 

As three lots would be required, a second lot would need to be manufactured.  The plan assumes this in 2012, which would then provide less  storage time data.  Alternatively, by making two lots in 2011, and stability studies on both, longer term data on all three lots would be provided, with additional spend in 2011 of ~ €270k.

3.                Effective immediately at the effective date of the filing of this Certificate (the “ Effective Time ”), the Prior Certificate, as heretofore amended, is hereby further amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

 

ARTICLE I
Name

 

The name of the corporation is Radius Health, Inc.

 

ARTICLE II
Purpose

(h)                                  (i) In the event of and simultaneously with the closing of an Event of Sale (as hereinafter defined), the Corporation shall, unless waived by the Existing Senior Majority or otherwise prevented by law, redeem all of the shares of Series C Stock, Series B Stock and Series A Stock then outstanding for a cash amount per share determined as set forth below in this Section A.4(h) hereof (the “ Special Liquidation Price ,” said redemption being referred to herein as a “ Special Liquidation ”).  In the event the Event of Sale involves consideration that does not consist of cash, then the Special Liquidation Price may be paid with such consideration having a value equal to the Special Liquidation Price.  To the extent there is any cash consideration in connection with an Event of Sale, at the option of the holders of a majority of the Series C Stock, the cash consideration will first (i) be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the Series C Stockholders (in relative proportion to the full liquidation preference the Series C Stockholders would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full); then (ii) be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the holders of Series B Stock (in relative proportion to the full liquidation preference the Series B Stockholders would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full), prior to the payment thereof to any other stockholders of the Corporation; and (iii) then be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the holders of Series A Stock (in relative proportion to the full liquidation preference the Series A Stockholders would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full), prior to the payment thereof to any other stockholders of the Corporation.  For all purposes of this Section A.4(h), the Special Liquidation Price shall be equal to that amount per share which would be received by each Existing Preferred Stockholder if, in connection with an Event of Sale, all the consideration paid in exchange for the assets or the shares of capital stock (as the case may be) of the Corporation were actually paid to and received by the Corporation and the Corporation were immediately thereafter liquidated and its assets distributed pursuant to Sections A.4(a) through (h) hereof.  To the extent that one or more redemptions (as described in Section A.5 hereof) and/or Special Liquidations are occurring concurrently, the Special Liquidation under this Section A.4(h) shall be deemed to occur first.  The date upon which the Special Liquidation shall occur is sometimes referred to herein as the “ Special Liquidation Date ”.

 

(ii)                                   In the absence of an applicable waiver pursuant to Section A.4(h)(i) above, at any time on or after the Special Liquidation Date, an Exisiting Preferred Stockholder shall be entitled to receive the Special Liquidation Price for each such share of Series C Stock, Series B Stock or Series A Stock owned by such holder.  Subject to the provisions of Section A.4(h)(iii) hereof, payment of the Special Liquidation Price will be made to each such holder upon actual delivery to the Corporation or its transfer agent of the certificate of such holder representing such shares of Series A Stock, Series B Stock or Series C Stock, as the case may be, or an affidavit of loss as to the same.

 

(iii)                                If on the Special Liquidation Date less than all the shares of either Series C Stock, Series B Stock or Series A Stock then outstanding may be legally redeemed by the Corporation, the Special Liquidation shall be made first as to the Series C Stock pro rata with respect to such Series C Stock based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series C Stock then owned by each such holder thereof until such holders are satisfied in full, then to the holders of the Series B Stock pro rata with respect to such Series B Stock based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series B Stock then owned by each holder thereof, and then to the holders of the Series A Stock pro rata with respect to such Series A Stock based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series A Stock then owned by each holder thereof.

 

(iv)                               On and after any Special Liquidation Date, all rights in respect of the shares of Existing Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall cease and terminate except the right to receive the applicable Special Liquidation Price as provided herein, and such shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall

 

8



 

no longer be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not the certificates representing such shares of Existing Preferred Stock have been received by the Corporation; provided , however , that, if the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Special Liquidation Price with respect to any Existing Preferred Stock, the rights of the holder(s) thereof with respect to such shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall continue until the Corporation cures such default.

 

(v)                                  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, all or any of the provisions of this Section A.4(h) may be waived by the Existing Senior Majority, by delivery of written notice of waiver to the Corporation prior to the closing of any Event of Sale.

 

(vi)                               Any notice required to be given to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section A.7(g) hereof in connection with an Event of Sale shall include a statement by the Corporation of (A) the Special Liquidation Price which each Preferred Stockholder shall be entitled to receive upon the occurrence of a Special Liquidation under this Section A.4(h) and (B) the extent to which the Corporation will, if at all, be legally prohibited from paying each holder of Preferred Stock the Special Liquidation Price.

 

(vii)                            For purposes of this Section A.4(h), an “Event of Sale” shall mean: (A) the sale by the stockholders of voting control of the Corporation, (B) the merger, consolidation or reorganization with or into any other corporation, entity or person or any other corporate reorganization, in which (I) the capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization represents less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization or (II) the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) has a class of securities that is (or has been within 90 days prior to such transaction) tradeable on any public market or exchange or (C) the sale, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or intellectual property of the Corporation in a single transaction or series of related transactions.

the rights of all of the holders under this Section A.5(a) and cause the immediate redemption of all of the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock held by them (less any shares that the Corporation is prevented by law from redeeming, which shall be redeemed by the Corporation as soon as permitted under law).  With respect to a breach of which the Corporation is aware or reasonably should be aware, such 60 day period within which the Corporation shall have the right to cure such breach shall be deemed to have commenced on the tenth day after the occurrence of such breach, irrespective of notice of such breach from any holder, if the Corporation shall not have notified the holders of such breach by such date.

 

(b)                                  On and after the Redemption Date, all rights of any Requesting Holder with respect to those shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock being redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to Section A.5(a), except the right to receive the applicable Redemption Price per share, shall cease and terminate, and such shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not the certificates representing such shares have been received by the Corporation; provided , however , that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (A) if the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Redemption Payment, the rights of the Requesting Holder with respect to its shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock shall continue until the Corporation cures such default, and (B) without limiting any other rights of a Requesting Holder, upon the occurrence of a subsequent Liquidation, with respect to the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock in respect of which no Redemption Payment has been received by a Requesting Holder, such Requesting Holder shall be accorded the rights and benefits set forth in Section A.4 hereof in respect of such remaining shares, as if no prior redemption request had been made.

 

(c)                                   If the Requesting Holders elect to exercise redemption rights hereunder, such Requesting Holders shall send notice of such election (the “ Redemption Notice ”) by first-class, certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the Corporation at its principal place of business or to any transfer agent of the Corporation.  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Redemption Notice, the Corporation shall notify in writing all other Existing Senior Preferred Stockholders of the request by a Requesting Holder for the redemption of Existing Senior Preferred Stock (the “ Corporation Notice ”).  On the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the date upon which the Corporation received the Redemption Notice, the Corporation shall pay each holder of Existing Senior Preferred Stock the applicable Redemption Price pursuant to the terms of Section A.5(a), provided that the Corporation or its transfer agent has received the certificate(s) representing the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock to be redeemed.  Such payment date shall be referred to herein as the “Redemption Date.”  If, on the Redemption Date, less than all the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock may be legally redeemed by the Corporation, the redemption of Existing Senior Preferred Stock shall be pro rata according to the respective amounts which would be payable to the Existing Senior Preferred Stockholders in respect of their shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock if the Redemption Price were paid in full for all such shares, and any shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock not redeemed shall be redeemed on the first date following such Redemption Date on which the Corporation may lawfully redeem such shares (pro rata according to the respective amounts which would be payable to the Existing Senior Preferred Stockholders in respect of the remaining shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock if the Redemption Price were paid in full for all such shares).  The Corporation shall redeem (to the extent permitted by law) the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock on the Redemption Date and the Corporation shall promptly advise each holder of Existing Senior Preferred Stock of the Redemption Date or of the relevant facts applicable thereto preventing such redemption.  Upon redemption of only a portion of the number of shares covered by a Existing Senior Preferred Stock certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of such Existing Senior Preferred Stock certificate, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of the Existing Senior Preferred Stock representing the unredeemed portion of the Existing Senior Preferred Stock certificate, which new certificate shall entitle the holder thereof to all the rights, powers and privileges of a holder of such shares.

(v)                                  The person in whose name the Common Certificate or Certificates are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date, unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on such Conversion Date, in which event the holder shall be deemed to have become the stockholder of record on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, provided that the Series A Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price or Series C Conversion Price, as applicable, upon which the conversion shall be executed shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date.

 

(vi)                               Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of shares covered by an Existing Preferred Certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of such Existing Preferred Certificate, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of Existing Preferred Stock representing the unconverted portion of the Existing Preferred Certificate, which new certificate shall entitle the holder thereof to all the rights, powers and privileges of a holder of such Existing Preferred Stock.

 

14



 

(c)                                   If an Existing Preferred Stockholder shall surrender more than one share of the same class of Existing Preferred Stock for conversion at any one time, then the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Existing Preferred Stock so surrendered.

 

(d)                                  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of Existing Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall instead pay a cash adjustment for any such fractional interest in an amount equal to the Current Market Price thereof on the Conversion Date, as determined in accordance with Section A.7(e)(vii) hereof.

 

(e)                                   For all purposes of this Article III, Part A, the initial conversion price of the Series A Stock shall be the Series A Original Purchase Price, the initial conversion price of the Series B Stock shall be the Series B Original Purchase Price and the initial conversion price of the Series C Stock shall be the Series C Original Purchase Price, in each case subject to adjustment from time to time as follows (the conversion price of any or each of the Series A Stock, Series B Stock and the Series C Stock, as adjusted from time to time, is sometimes referred to generically in this Section A.7 as the “ Conversion Price ”):

 

(i)                                      Subject to Section A.7(e)(ii) and A.7(e)(x) below, if the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Effective Time, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (which term, for purposes of this Section A.7(e)(i), including all subsections thereof, shall be deemed to include all other securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock (including, but not limited to, Existing Preferred Stock) or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, in each case other than Excluded Stock (as defined in Section A.7(e)(ii) below), for a consideration per share less than the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Common Stock or other securities (a “ Dilutive Issuance ”), then (X) the Conversion Price for the Series A Stock (the “ Series A Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series A Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, upon exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants or otherwise under Section A.7(e)(i)(d)) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series C Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, upon exercise of outstanding stock options or otherwise under Section A.7(e)(i)(d)) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued, (Y) the Conversion Price for the Series B Stock (the “ Series B Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series B Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series C Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of

 

15



 

additional stock so issued, and (Z) the Conversion Price for the Series C Stock (the “ Series C Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series C Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series C Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued.  For purposes of this Section A.7(e)(i), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon conversion of such outstanding shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall be determined without giving effect to any adjustments to the applicable Conversion Price resulting from the Dilutive Issuance that is the subject of this calculation.  For the purposes of any adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section A.7(e)(i), the following provisions shall be applicable.

 

a.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock in whole or in part for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor after deducting therefrom any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, plus the value of any property other than cash received by the Corporation, determined as provided in Section A.7(e)(i)(b) hereof, plus the value of any other consideration received by the Corporation determined as set forth in Section A.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

b.                                       In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part in property other than cash, the value of such property other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, irrespective of any accounting treatment; provided , however , that such fair market value of such property as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate Current Market Price (as defined in Section A.7(e)(viii) hereof) of the shares of Common Stock or such other securities being issued, less any cash consideration paid for such shares, determined as provided in Section A.7(e)(i)(a) hereof and less any other consideration received by the Corporation for such shares, determined as set forth in Section A.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

c.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in whole or in part other than cash or property, the value of such other consideration shall be deemed to be the aggregate par value of such Common Stock (or the aggregate stated value if such Common Stock has no par value).

 

d.                                       In the case of the issuance of options or other rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or the issuance of securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable or exercisable securities:

 

i.                                           the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections A.7(e)(i)(a), (b)

 

16



 

and (c) hereof), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections A.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

 

ii.                                        the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of, or in exchange for, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Corporation for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections A.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

 

iii.                                     if there is any change (whether automatic pursuant to the terms contained therein or as a result of the amendment of such terms) in the exercise price of, or number of shares deliverable upon exercise of, any such options or rights or upon the conversion or exchange of any such convertible or exchangeable securities (other than a change resulting from the original antidilution provisions thereof in place at the time of issuance of such security), then the applicable Conversion Price shall automatically be readjusted in proportion to such change (notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this clause shall have the effect of increasing the applicable Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the applicable Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii) the applicable Conversion Price that would have resulted from any Dilutive Issuances between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date);

 

iv.                                    upon the expiration of any such options or rights or the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities (or in the event that the change that precipitated an adjustment pursuant to Section A.7(e)(i)(d)(iii) hereof is reversed or terminated, or expires), then the applicable Conversion Price shall be automatically readjusted to the applicable Conversion Price that would have been obtained had such options, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities not been issued; and

 

v.                                       if the terms of any option or convertible security (excluding options or convertible securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive shares of Common Stock which are Excluded Stock), the issuance of which was not a Dilutive Issuance, are revised after the Original Issuance Date (either automatically pursuant the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such option or convertible security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such option or convertible security, as so amended, and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

 

(ii)                                   “Excluded Stock” shall mean:

 

a.                                        Common Stock issued upon conversion of any shares of Existing Preferred Stock, including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock;

(“ GEHFS ”) and Oxford Finance Corporation (“ OFC ”) pursuant to a proposed debt financing approved by the Board of Directors (the “ GE Financing ”), shares of Preferred Stock issued or issuable to GE in connection with the GE Financing or upon exercise by GEHFS or OFC of warrants issued in the GE Financing and shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of any such shares of Preferred Stock issued to GEHFS or OFC pursuant to the GE Financing;

j.                                           All shares of Preferred Stock issued in connection with the Qualified Financing as provided in this Certificate and the Series A-1 Purchase Agreement, and all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of any such shares of Preferred Stock.

 

(iii)                                If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Effective Time is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the applicable Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased in the form of a Proportional Adjustment (as defined in Section A.8) so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Existing Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares.

 

(iv)                               If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Effective Time is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to the Reverse Split), then, following the record date for such combination, the applicable Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased in the form of a Proportional Adjustment so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Existing Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

 

(v)                                  Except as contemplated in Certificate and the Series A-1 Purchaser Agreement, if at any time after the Effective Time, the Corporation shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation (other than shares of Common Stock) or in cash or other property, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of the Existing Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Corporation, cash or other property which they would have been entitled to receive had the Existing Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph with respect to the rights of the holders of the Existing Preferred Stock; and provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Existing Preferred Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash, or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash, or other property as they would have received if all outstanding shares of Existing Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

The provisions of this Section A.7(e)(v) shall similarly apply to successive Extraordinary Transactions.

 

(vii)                            All calculations under this Section A.7(e) shall be made to the nearest one-tenth of a cent ($.001) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share, as the case may be.

a.                                        If the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, then the closing price for each day shall be the last reported sales price regular way or, in case no such reported sales took place on such day, the average of the last reported bid and asked prices regular way, in either case on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading.

 

b.                                       If the Common Stock is not at the time listed or admitted for trading on any such exchange, then such price shall be equal to the last reported bid and asked prices on such day as reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc., or any similar reputable quotation and reporting service if such quotation is not reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc.

 

c.                                        If the Common Stock is not traded in such manner that the quotations referred to in this Section A.7(d)(viii) are available for the period required hereunder, then the Current Market Price shall be the fair market value of such share, as determined in good faith by a majority of the entire Board of Directors.

 

(ix)                                 In any case in which the provisions of this Section A.7(e) shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Corporation may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any shares of Existing Preferred Stock

 

20



 

converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment, and (B) paying to such holder any cash amounts in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section A.7(d) hereof; provided , however , that the Corporation shall deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional shares and such cash upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

 

(x)                                    If a state of facts shall occur that, without being specifically controlled by the provisions of this Section A.7, would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the holders of the Existing Preferred Stock in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors shall make an adjustment in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so as to protect such conversion rights.

 

(xi)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no adjustment to the Conversion Price for any issuance or deemed issuance of any shares of Common Stock (which term, for purposes of this Section A.7(e)(x), including all subsections thereof, shall be deemed to include all securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, whether directly or indirectly, shares of Common Stock) for a consideration per share greater than the Series C Original Purchase Price.

 

(f)                                     Whenever the applicable Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section A.7(e) hereof, the Corporation shall forthwith file and keep on record at the office of the Secretary of the Corporation and at the office of its transfer agent or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, a statement, signed by both its President or Chief Executive Officer and its Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the applicable Conversion Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment.

Where appropriate, such copy shall be given in advance of any such adjustment and shall be included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the provisions of Section A.7(g) hereof.

 

(g)                                  In the event the Corporation shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section A.7(e)(i), (iii), (iv) or (v) hereof, or any other Event of Sale, the Corporation shall give notice to each Existing Preferred Stockholder in the manner set forth in Section A.7(f) hereof, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the applicable Conversion Price with respect to the Existing Preferred Stock, and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon each conversion of Preferred Stock. In the case of any action that would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the record date so fixed, and in the case of any other action, such notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the taking of such proposed action.

The holder of any shares of Existing Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock pursuant to this Section A.7(k) shall be entitled to payment of all declared or accrued but unpaid dividends, if any, payable on or with respect to such shares up to and including the date of the closing of such Qualified Public Offering which shall be deemed the Conversion Date for purposes of this Section A.7(k).

the holders of such other class or series of capital stock would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full) and then (iv) be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the holders of Series A-4 Stock and to the holders of any other class or series of capital stock that is junior to the Series A-3 Stock, Series A-5 Stock and Series A-6 Stock but senior to or on parity with the Series A-4 Stock, in all cases, prior to the payment thereof to any other stockholders of the Corporation.  For all purposes of this Section B.4(i), the Special Liquidation Price shall be equal to that amount per share which would be received by each New Preferred Stockholder if, in connection with an Event of Sale, all the consideration paid in exchange for the assets or the shares of capital stock (as the case may be) of the Corporation were actually paid to and received by the Corporation and the Corporation were immediately thereafter liquidated and its assets distributed pursuant to Sections B.4(a) through (h) hereof.  To the extent that one or more redemptions (as described in Section B.5 hereof) and/or Special Liquidations are occurring concurrently, the Special Liquidation under this Section B.4(i) shall be deemed to occur first.  The date upon which the Special Liquidation shall occur is sometimes referred to herein as the “ Special Liquidation Date ”.

7.                Conversion .

 

(a)                       Any New Preferred Stockholder shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, to convert any or all of its shares of New Preferred Stock into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock for each share of New Preferred Stock so converted equal to the quotient of the Series A-1 Original Purchase Price, Series A-2 Original Purchase Price, Series A-3 Original Purchase Price, Series A-4 Original Purchase Price, Series A-6 Original Purchase Price or Series A-6 Original Purchase Price, as applicable, for such share divided by the Series A-1 Conversion Price, the Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series A-3 Conversion Price, Series A-4 Conversion Price, Series A-5 Conversion Price or the Series A-6 Conversion Price (each as defined in Section B.7(e)(i) hereof), as applicable, for such share of New Preferred Stock, as last adjusted and then in effect, rounded up to the nearest one-tenth of a share; provided , however , that cash shall be paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of Common Stock, as provided in Section B.7(d) hereof.

 

(b)                      (i) Any New Preferred Stockholder who exercises the right to convert shares of New Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section B.7 shall be entitled to payment of all accrued dividends, whether or not declared and all declared but unpaid dividends payable with respect to such New Preferred Stock pursuant to Section B.3 herein, up to and including the Conversion Date (as defined in Section B.7(b)(iii) hereof).

 

(ii)                                   Any New Preferred Stockholder may exercise the right to convert such shares into Common Stock pursuant to this Section B.7 by delivering to the Corporation during regular business hours, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent of the Corporation or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or certificates for the shares to be converted (the “ New Preferred Certificate ”), duly endorsed or assigned in blank to the Corporation (if required by it) or an affidavit of loss as to the same.

 

(iii)                                Each New Preferred Certificate shall be accompanied by written notice stating that such holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock (the “ Common Certificate ”) are to be issued.  Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the “ Conversion Date .”

 

(iv)                               As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, at the place designated by such holder, (A) a Common Certificate for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and (B) a check or cash in respect of any fractional interest in shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, as provided in Section B.7(d) hereof, payable with respect to the shares so converted up to and including the Conversion Date.

 

(v)                                  The person in whose name the Common Certificate or Certificates are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of Common Stock on the applicable

 

38



 

Conversion Date, unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on such Conversion Date, in which event the holder shall be deemed to have become the stockholder of record on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, provided that the Series A-1 Conversion Price, the Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series A-3 Conversion Price, Series A-4 Conversion Price, the Series A-5 Conversion Price or the Series A-6 Conversion Price, as applicable, upon which the conversion shall be executed shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date.

 

(vi)                               Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of shares covered by a New Preferred Certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of such New Preferred Certificate, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of New Preferred Stock representing the unconverted portion of the New Preferred Certificate, which new certificate shall entitle the holder thereof to all the rights, powers and privileges of a holder of such New Preferred Stock.

 

(c)                       If a New Preferred Stockholder shall surrender more than one share of the same class of New Preferred Stock for conversion at any one time, then the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of New Preferred Stock so surrendered.

 

(d)                      No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of New Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall instead pay a cash adjustment for any such fractional interest in an amount equal to the Current Market Price thereof on the Conversion Date, as determined in accordance with Section B.7(e)(vi) hereof.

 

(e)                       For all purposes of this Article III, Part B, the initial conversion price of the Series A-1 Stock shall be the Series A-1 Original Purchase Price, the initial conversion price of the Series A-2 Stock shall be the Series A-2 Original Purchase Price,  the initial conversion price of the Series A-3 Stock shall be the Series A-3 Original Purchase Price, the initial conversion price of the Series A-4 Stock shall be the Series A-4 Original Purchase Price, the initial conversion price of the Series A-5 Stock shall be the Series A-5 Original Purchase Price, and the initial conversion price of the Series A-6 Stock shall be the Series A-6 Original Purchase Price, in each case subject to adjustment from time to time as follows (the conversion price of any or each of the Series A-1 Stock, the Series A-2 Stock, the Series A-3 Stock, the Series A-4 Stock, the Series A-5 Stock and the Series A-6 Stock is sometimes referred to generically in this Section B.7 as the “ Conversion Price ”):

 

(i)                                      Subject to Section B.7(e)(ii) and B.7(e)(x) below, if the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Series A-1 Original Issuance Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (which term, for purposes of this Section B.7(e)(i), including all subsections thereof, shall be deemed to include all other securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock (including, but not limited to, Preferred Stock) or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, in each case other than Excluded Stock (as defined in Section B.7(e)(ii) below), for a consideration per share less than the Series A-1 Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Common Stock or other securities (a “ New Dilutive Issuance ”), then (X) the Conversion Price of the Series A-1 Stock (the “ Series A-1 Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such New Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series A-1 Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at

 

39



 

such Series A-1 Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued, (Y) the Conversion Price for the Series A-2 Stock (the “ Series A-2 Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such New Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series A-2 Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series A-2 Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued, and (Z) the Conversion Price for the Series A-3 Stock (the “ Series A-3 Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such New Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series A-3 Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series A-3 Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued.  For purposes of this Section B.7(e)(i), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon conversion of such outstanding shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall be determined without giving effect to any adjustments to the applicable Conversion Price resulting from the New Dilutive Issuance that is the subject of this calculation.  For purposes of Part B of this Certificate, the term “ Series A-4 Conversion Price ” shall mean the Conversion Price of the Series A-4 Stock, the term “ Series A-5 Conversion Price ” shall mean the Conversion Price of the Series A-5 Stock and the term “ Series A-6 Conversion Price ” shall mean the Conversion Price of the Series A-6 Stock.  For the purposes of any adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section B.7(e)(i), the following provisions shall be applicable.

 

a.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock in whole or in part for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor after deducting therefrom any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, plus the value of any property other than cash received by the Corporation, determined as provided in Section B.7(e)(i)(b) hereof, plus the value of any other consideration received by the Corporation determined as set forth in Section B.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

b.                                       In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part in property other than cash, the value of such property other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of

 

40


 

Directors, irrespective of any accounting treatment; provided , however , that such fair market value of such property as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate Current Market Price (as defined in Section B.7(e)(viii) hereof) of the shares of Common Stock or such other securities being issued, less any cash consideration paid for such shares, determined as provided in Section B.7(e)(i)(a) hereof and less any other consideration received by the Corporation for such shares, determined as set forth in Section B.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

c.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in whole or in part other than cash or property, the value of such other consideration shall be deemed to be the aggregate par value of such Common Stock (or the aggregate stated value if such Common Stock has no par value).

 

d.                                       In the case of the issuance of options or other rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or the issuance of securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable or exercisable securities:

 

i.                                           the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections B.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections B.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

 

ii.                                        the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of, or in exchange for, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Corporation for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections B.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

 

iii.                                     if there is any change (whether automatic pursuant to the terms contained therein or as a result of the amendment of such terms) in the exercise price of, or number of shares deliverable upon exercise of, any such options or rights or upon the conversion or exchange of any such convertible or exchangeable securities (other than a change resulting from the original antidilution provisions thereof in place at the time of issuance of such security), then the applicable Conversion Price shall automatically be readjusted in proportion to such change (notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this clause shall have the effect of increasing the applicable Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the applicable Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii) the applicable Conversion Price that would have resulted from any Dilutive Issuances between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date);

 

iv.                                    upon the expiration of any such options or rights or the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities (or in the event that the change that precipitated an adjustment pursuant to Section

 

41



 

B.7(e)(i)(d)(iii) hereof is reversed or terminated, or expires), then the applicable Conversion Price shall be automatically readjusted to the applicable Conversion Price that would have been obtained had such options, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities not been issued; and

 

v.                                       if the terms of any option or convertible security (excluding options or convertible securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive shares of Common Stock which are Excluded Stock), the issuance of which was not a New Dilutive Issuance, are revised after the Series A-1 Original Issuance Date (either automatically pursuant the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such option or convertible security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such option or convertible security, as so amended, and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

 

(ii)                                   Excluded Stock ” shall mean:

 

a.                                        Common Stock issued upon conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock, including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock;

c.                                        Common Stock issued as a stock dividend or distribution on the Preferred Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or capital stock of any other class issuable upon any subdivision, recombination, split-up or reverse stock split of all the outstanding shares of such class of capital stock;

(iv)                               If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Series A-1 Original Issuance Date is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock

 

43



 

(other than pursuant to the Reverse Split), then, following the record date for such combination, the applicable Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased in the form of a Proportional Adjustment so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of New Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

 

(v)                                  Except as otherwise contemplated in the Series A-1 Purchase Agreement, if at any time after the Series A-1 Original Issuance Date, the Corporation shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation (other than shares of Common Stock) or in cash or other property, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of the New Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Corporation, cash or other property which they would have been entitled to receive had the New Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph with respect to the rights of the holders of the New Preferred Stock; and provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of New Preferred Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash, or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash, or other property as they would have received if all outstanding shares of New Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

 

(vi)                               Subject to the provisions of Section B.4(i) above, in the event, at any time after the Series A-1 Original Issuance Date, of any capital reorganization, or any reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation (other than pursuant to the Reverse Split, other than as contemplated under this Certificate and the Series A-1 Purchase Agreement and other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), or the consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another person (other than pursuant to the Merger Agreement and other than a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any change in the powers, designations, preferences and rights, or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, if any, of the capital stock of the Corporation) or of the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the properties and assets of the Corporation in their entirety to any other person (any such transaction, an “ Extraordinary Transaction ”), then the Corporation shall provide appropriate adjustment in the form of a Proportional Adjustment to the applicable Conversion Price with respect to each share of New Preferred Stock outstanding after the effectiveness of such Extraordinary Transaction such that each share of New Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Extraordinary Transaction shall be convertible into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation, or of the corporation resulting from or surviving such Extraordinary Transaction, that a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable (immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Extraordinary Transaction) upon conversion of such share of New Preferred Stock would have been entitled to receive upon such Extraordinary Transaction. The provisions of this Section B.7(e)(vi) shall similarly apply to successive Extraordinary Transactions.

 

(vii)                            All calculations under this Section B.7(e) shall be made to the nearest one-tenth of a cent ($.001) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share, as the case may be.

44



 

combination or reclassification that took effect during such 20 Business Day period), determined as follows:

 

a.                                        If the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, then the closing price for each day shall be the last reported sales price regular way or, in case no such reported sales took place on such day, the average of the last reported bid and asked prices regular way, in either case on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading.

 

b.                                       If the Common Stock is not at the time listed or admitted for trading on any such exchange, then such price shall be equal to the last reported bid and asked prices on such day as reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc., or any similar reputable quotation and reporting service if such quotation is not reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc.

 

c.                                        If the Common Stock is not traded in such manner that the quotations referred to in this Section B.7(d)(viii) are available for the period required hereunder, then the Current Market Price shall be the fair market value of such share, as determined in good faith by a majority of the entire Board of Directors.

 

(ix)                                 In any case in which the provisions of this Section B.7(e) shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Corporation may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any shares of New Preferred Stock converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment, and (B) paying to such holder any cash amounts in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section B.7(d) hereof; provided , however , that the Corporation shall deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional shares and such cash upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

 

(x)                                    If a state of facts shall occur that, without being specifically controlled by the provisions of this Section B.7, would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the holders of the New Preferred Stock in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors shall make an adjustment in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so as to protect such conversion rights.

 

(f)                         Whenever the applicable Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section B.7(e) hereof, the Corporation shall forthwith file and keep on record at the office of the Secretary of the Corporation and at the office of its transfer agent or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, a statement, signed by both its President or Chief Executive Officer and its Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the applicable Conversion Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment. The Corporation shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by first-class, certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to each New Preferred Stockholder at such holder’s address appearing on the Corporation’s records. Where appropriate, such copy shall be given in advance of any such adjustment and shall be included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the provisions of Section B.7(g) hereof.

 

(g)                      In the event the Corporation shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section B.7(e)(i), (iii), (iv) or (v) hereof, or any other Event of Sale, other then the transactions contemplated by the Series A-1 Purchase Agreement and the Merger Agreement, the Corporation shall give

 

45



 

notice to each New Preferred Stockholder in the manner set forth in Section B.7(f) hereof, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place.

48



 

the items provided for in the next sentence of this Section B.10(b).  As soon as practicable after the Special Mandatory Conversion and the surrender of the certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for New Preferred Stock so converted, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof, together with cash as provided in B.7(d) in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion and the payment of any declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of New Preferred Stock converted, and a new certificate for the number of shares, if any, of New Preferred Stock represented by such surrendered certificate and not converted pursuant to B.10(a).  Such converted New Preferred Stock shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without the need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of New Preferred Stock accordingly.

Annex A

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                          ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                          block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                          purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                          an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                          privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                          short sales;

 

·                                          through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                          broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                          a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                          any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 



 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

(2)           Beneficial , or beneficially , as applied to the ownership of securities, has been defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to mean the following:

 

A beneficial owner of a security includes any person (as defined below) who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares “voting power” and/or “investment power”.  Voting power includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; investment power includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition, of such security.

 

Note that more than one person may have a beneficial interest in the same securities; one may have voting power and the other may have investment power.

 

Even if a person, directly or indirectly, creates or uses a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement or device with the purpose or effect of divesting such person of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership to avoid the reporting requirements of section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, he will still be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such security.

 

A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within 60 days, including but not limited to any right to acquire:  (i) through the exercise of any option, warrant or right; (ii) through the conversion of a security; (iii) pursuant to the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement; or (iv) pursuant to the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement.

 

A member of a national securities exchange is not deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities held directly or indirectly by it on behalf of another person solely because such member is the record holder of such securities and, pursuant to the rules of such exchange, may direct the vote of such securities, without instruction, on other than contested matters or matters that may affect substantially the rights or privileges of the holders of the securities to be voted, but is otherwise precluded by the rules of such exchange from voting without instruction.

 

A person who in the ordinary course of business is a pledgee of securities pursuant to a bona fide pledge agreement will not be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such pledged securities merely because there has been a default under such an agreement, except during such time as the event of default shall remain uncured for more than 30 days or at any time before a default is cured if the power acquired by the pledgee pursuant to the default enables him to change or influence control of the issuer.

 

A person may also be regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of his spouse, his minor children or other relatives of his or her spouse sharing his home, or held in a trust of which he is a beneficiary or trustee, if the relationships are such that he has voting power and/or investment power with respect to such securities.

 



 

If you have any reason to believe that any interest you have, however remote, might be described as a beneficial interest, describe such interest.

 

(3)           Control means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

 

(4)           Person includes two or more persons acting as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding, or disposing of securities of an issuer.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                          ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                          block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                          purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                          an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                          privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                          short sales;

 

·                                          through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                          broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                          a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                          any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more

 



 

derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Each ROFR Stockholder shall be entitled to purchase up to its Equity Percentage of the Offered Securities. Each ROFR Stockholder may delegate its rights and obligations with respect to such Offer to one or more members of its Group, which members shall thereafter be deemed to be “ROFR Stockholders” for the purpose of applying this Section 2.3 to such Offer.

 

(b)            The Corporation shall deliver to each ROFR Stockholder written notice of the offer to sell the Offered Securities, specifying the price and terms and conditions of the offer (the “ Offer ”).

The Notice of Acceptance must be delivered to the Corporation prior to the end of the 30-Day Period. The failure by a ROFR Stockholder to exercise its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any other rights or of the right to receive notice of and participate in any subsequent Offer.

 

(d)            If any ROFR Stockholder fails to exercise its right hereunder to purchase its Equity Percentage of the Offered Securities, the Corporation shall so notify the other ROFR Stockholders in a written notice (the “ Excess Securities Notice ”).

Upon the closing of the sale of the Offered Securities to be purchased by the ROFR Stockholders and the Excess Securities to be purchased by ROFR Stockholders, each ROFR Stockholder shall (i) purchase from the Corporation that portion of the Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, for which it tendered a Notice of Acceptance and an Excess Securities Notice, as applicable, upon the terms specified in the Offer, and (ii) execute and deliver an agreement further restricting transfer of such Offered Securities substantially as set forth in Section 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of this Agreement.

(ii)            If: (A) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date or has not been declared effective by the Commission by the Effectiveness Date, or (B) the Corporation fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within 5 Trading Days of the date that the Corporation is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or not be subject to further review, or (C) prior to the Effectiveness Date of a Registration Statement, the Corporation fails to file a pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement within 14 calendar days after the receipt of comments by or notice from the Commission that such amendment is required in order for such Registration Statement to be declared effective, or (D) after the Effectiveness Date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or the Holders are otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for more than 20 consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of 40 calendar days during any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive calendar days) (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “ Event ”, and for purposes of clause (A) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (B) the date on which such 5 Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (C) the date which such 14 calendar day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (D) the date on which such 20 or 40 calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as an “ Event Date ”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Corporation shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder.  The parties agree that the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to a Holder under this Agreement shall be sixteen percent (16%) of the aggregate Purchase Price (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) paid by such Holder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement.  If the Corporation fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) in full within seven days after the date payable, the Corporation will pay interest thereon at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event.

 

(iii)           In the event that the Corporation is unable for any reason to include in the Registration Statement required to be filed under Section 3.4(a)(i) all of the Registrable Securities, then the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to file and cause to be declared effective additional Registration Statements, in order to uphold its obligations under Section 3.4(a)(i), as promptly as practicable. If not all Registrable Securities may be included in any one Registration Statement, then the Registrable Securities to be included shall be allocated among Holders of such Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by all Holders that have not been included in a Registration Statement.

 

(b)            Registration Procedures . In connection with the Corporation’s registration obligations hereunder, the Corporation shall:

If any Holder fails to furnish its Selling Stockholder Questionnaire related to a particular Registration Statement not less than 2 Trading Days prior to the Filing Date or by the end of the 4 th  Trading Day following the date on which such Holder receives draft materials in accordance with this Section, any liquidated damages that are accruing, as well as any other rights of such Holder under this Agreement with regard to such Registration Statement, including without limitation, the right to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement, shall be tolled as to such Holder until such information is received by the Corporation; provided , however , that the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include such Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement or the next most available Registration Statement as soon as possible after such information is furnished to the Corporation.

The shares of Common Stock that are excluded from the underwritten public offering pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be withheld from the market by the holders thereof for a period, not to exceed 90 days from the closing of such underwritten public offering, that the managing underwriter reasonably determines as necessary in order to effect such underwritten public offering.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no such holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds to it of all Registrable Shares sold by it pursuant to such registration statement, and (ii) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act, shall be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

The following Plan of Distribution was not attached as Annex A to this Stockholders Agreement at the time this Stockholders Agreement was executed and it is not part of the executed agreement.  The Plan of Distribution was subsequently distributed to the stockholders of the Company separate from the Stockholders Agreement and is being include here for informational purposes only.

 

Annex A

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                          ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                          block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                          purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                          an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                          privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                          short sales;

 

·                                          through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                          broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                          a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                          any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 



 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

APPENDIX A

 

DEFINITIONS

 

(1)           Affiliate of a specified person (as defined below), means a person who directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls (as defined below), or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the person specified.

 

(2)           Beneficial , or beneficially , as applied to the ownership of securities, has been defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to mean the following:

 

A beneficial owner of a security includes any person (as defined below) who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares “voting power” and/or “investment power”.  Voting power includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; investment power includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition, of such security.

 

Note that more than one person may have a beneficial interest in the same securities; one may have voting power and the other may have investment power.

 

Even if a person, directly or indirectly, creates or uses a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement or device with the purpose or effect of divesting such person of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership to avoid the reporting requirements of section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, he will still be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such security.

 

A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within 60 days, including but not limited to any right to acquire:  (i) through the exercise of any option, warrant or right; (ii) through the conversion of a security; (iii) pursuant to the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement; or (iv) pursuant to the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement.

 

A member of a national securities exchange is not deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities held directly or indirectly by it on behalf of another person solely because such member is the record holder of such securities and, pursuant to the rules of such exchange, may direct the vote of such securities, without instruction, on other than contested matters or matters that may affect substantially the rights or privileges of the holders of the securities to be voted, but is otherwise precluded by the rules of such exchange from voting without instruction.

 

A person who in the ordinary course of business is a pledgee of securities pursuant to a bona fide pledge agreement will not be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such pledged securities merely because there has been a default under such an agreement, except during such time as the event of default shall remain uncured for more than 30 days or at any time before a default is cured if the power acquired by the pledgee pursuant to the default enables him to change or influence control of the issuer.

 

A person may also be regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of his spouse, his minor children or other relatives of his or her spouse sharing his home, or held in a trust of which he is a beneficiary or trustee, if the relationships are such that he has voting power and/or investment power with respect to such securities.

 



 

If you have any reason to believe that any interest you have, however remote, might be described as a beneficial interest, describe such interest.

 

(3)           Control means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

 

(4)           Person includes two or more persons acting as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding, or disposing of securities of an issuer.

 



 

APPENDIX B

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                          ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                          block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                          purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                          an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                          privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                          short sales;

 

·                                          through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                          broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                          a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                          any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more

 



 

derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

As you know, prior to commencing, and as a condition to your employment with the Company, all employees are required to agree to sign a copy of the Company’s standard Nondisclosure, Developments, and Non-Competition Agreement.  The Company will ask you to sign this agreement after you have signed and returned this letter and prior to or on your Start Date.

Richard Lyttle.

 

NO CONFLICTING OBLIGATION AND OBLIGATIONS

 

You represent and warrant that the performance by you of any or all of the terms of this letter agreement and the performance by you of your duties as an employee of the Company do not and will not breach or contravene (i) any agreement or contract (including, without limitation, any employment or consulting agreement, any agreement not to compete or any confidentiality or nondisclosure agreement) to which you are or may become a party on or at an time after the Start Date or (ii) any obligation you may otherwise have under applicable law to any former employer or to any person to whom you have provided, provide or will provide consulting services.

Use of Proceeds

 

1.                The Corporation anticipates using the net proceeds from the sale of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock to complete enrollment of the Phase 3 study of the subcutaneous form of the Corporation’s product candidate BA058 (PTHrP analog), complete the Phase 1b study of the transdermal form of BA058, bolster the Corporation’s balance sheet to improve negotiation leverage with  potential partners, and to complete a reverse merger with a publicly reporting Form 10 shell enabling the Corporation to eventually become publicly traded and listed on a national securities exchange such as Nasdaq.  The amounts actually expended by the Corporation for the above purposes may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including future revenue growth, if any, the progress of the Corporation’s research and development efforts and technological advances and hence, the Corporation’s management will retain broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds from the Series A-1 Preferred Stock.

6.1            Testing by Manufacturer .  The Product to be Manufactured under this Agreement will be Manufactured in accordance with cGMP, unless otherwise stated in the Work Order, and the Manufacturing Process approved by RADIUS.  Each Batch of Product will be sampled and tested by Manufacturer against the Specifications, and the quality assurance department of Manufacturer will review the records relating to the Manufacture of the Batch and will assess if the Manufacture has taken place in compliance with cGMP (if applicable) and the Manufacturing Process.

 

6.2            Provision of Records .  If, based upon such tests, a Batch of Product conforms to the Specifications and was Manufactured according to cGMP (if applicable) and the Manufacturing Process, then a Certificate of Compliance will be completed and approved by the quality assurance department of Manufacturer.  This Certificate of Compliance, a Certificate of Analysis and the Specifications (collectively, the “ Batch Documentation ”, excluding any batch and master batch records) for each Batch of Product will be delivered to RADIUS by a reputable overnight courier or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt required to verify delivery date.  Upon reasonable request, Manufacturer will also deliver to RADIUS all raw data, reports, authorizations, certificates, methodologies, raw material specifications, SOPs, standard test methods, and other documentation in the possession or under the control of Manufacturer relating to the Manufacture of each Batch of Product.  If RADIUS has not received all such Batch Documentation at the time of receipt of the Batch, RADIUS will notify Manufacturer in writing.  If RADIUS requires additional copies of such Batch Documentation, these will be provided by Manufacturer to RADIUS at cost.

 

(a)            Review of Batch Documentation; Acceptance .  RADIUS will review the Batch Documentation for each Batch of Product and may test samples of the Batch of Product against the Specifications.  For the avoidance of doubt, RADIUS herewith takes note that certain parts of the Batch Documentation will be written in French as the Facility is in Belgium.  RADIUS shall pay all costs incurred with any translation of such Records requested by RADIUS.  RADIUS will notify Manufacturer in writing of its acceptance or rejection of such Batch within six (6) weeks of receipt of the complete Batch Documentation relating to such Batch.  During this review period, the parties agree to respond promptly, but in any event within ten (10) days, to any reasonable inquiry by the other party with respect to such Batch Documentation.  RADIUS has no obligation to accept a Batch if such Batch does not comply with the Specifications and/or was not Manufactured in compliance with cGMP (if applicable) and the Manufacturing Process.

6.3            Disputes .  In case of any disagreement between the parties as to whether Product conforms to the applicable Specifications or cGMP (if applicable), the quality assurance representatives of the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any such disagreement and RADIUS and Manufacturer will follow their respective SOPs to determine the conformity of the Product to the Specifications and cGMP (if applicable).  If the foregoing discussions do not resolve the disagreement in a reasonable time (which will not exceed thirty (30) days), a representative sample of such Product will be submitted to an independent testing laboratory mutually agreed upon by the parties for tests and final determination of whether such Product conforms with such Specifications.  The laboratory must meet cGMP (if applicable), be of recognized standing in the industry, and consent to the appointment of such laboratory will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by either party.  Such laboratory will use the test methods contained in the applicable Specifications.  The determination of conformance by such laboratory with respect to all or part of such Product will be final and binding on the parties.  The fees and expenses of the laboratory incurred in making such determination will be paid by the party against whom the determination is made.

 

6.4            Product Non-Compliance and Remedies .  If a Batch of Product fails to conform to the Specifications due to the fault of Manufacturer or was not Manufactured in compliance with cGMP (if applicable) and the Manufacturing Process, then Manufacturer will, at RADIUS’ sole option:

 

(a)            refund in full the fees and expenses paid by RADIUS for such Batch, including the costs of RADIUS Materials used in the Manufacture of such Batch; or

 

(b)            at Manufacturer’s cost and expense, including the costs of RADIUS Materials used in the Manufacture of such Batch, produce a new Batch of Product as soon as reasonably possible; or

 

(c)            Rework or Reprocess the Product, at Manufacturer’s cost and expense, so that the Batch can be deemed to have been Manufactured in compliance with cGMP (if applicable) and the Manufacturing Process, and to conform to Specifications.

 

Moreover, the parties will meet to discuss, evaluate and analyze the reasons for and implications of the failure to comply with cGMP (if applicable) and/or the Manufacturing Process and will decide whether to proceed with or to amend the applicable Work Order, or to terminate such Work Order.

 

6.5            Disposition of Non-Conforming Product .  The ultimate disposition of non-conforming Product will be the responsibility of RADIUS’ quality assurance department and RADIUS’ expense.

WHICH IS NOT SO EXPLICITLY BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION.

 

1)             Background

 

On March 19, ‘09 Dr. Maria Grunwald asked for a cost proposal + timelines for upgrading the analytical methods, which were employed in the 1st BA-058 campaign, to NDA filing levels.  This was followed by a request for proposal on April 6, ‘09 for pricing for a 150g Ph III / cGMP campaign.  On April 29, ‘09 Radius placed a request to include pricing for a 200g as well.  The 04/30/09 2 nd  proposal amendment provides pricing for the 200g. On Nov. 23, ‘09 Radius requested a proposal for a 50g batch for Phase 3 (requiring manufacture to GMP standards).  On Nov. 30, ‘09 Radius requested that pricing be added for a 100g campaign as well.  On Dec. 3, ‘09, Radius requested a “break” on the 100g price which Lonza is willing to give in support of Radius’ program.

 

In mid 2008 Lonza Braine performed the 1 st  BA-058 campaign (C1 campaign) which yielded [*]g peptide corresponding to [*]g net peptide.  An extra quantity of [*]g powder weight was generated during this first campaign.

 

Campaign summaries were provided in Process Analytical reports which were sent to Radius on March 2, ‘09 (PAR-S-RDS-001-103 C1, concerning upstream process description) and on March 9, ‘09 (PAR-P-RDS-001-Campaign 1-Lot 8AG1, concerning downstream process description).

 

To date (April 20, ‘09) the following shipments were made out of this C1 campaign:

 

1) In February ‘09, 40.0g (8 x 5.0g powder weight) were sent to Vetter Pharma (Germany).

 

2) In March ‘09, 4.0g (1 x 1.5g + 1 x 2.5g powder weight) were sent to Charles River Laboratories (Canada)

 

2)             BA058—the Product

 

The BA058 (RDS-001) Peptide is an amide 34 mer with one non natural AA: H-Ala-Val-Ser-Glu-His-Gln-Leu-Leu-His-Asp-Lys-Gly-Lys-Ser-Ile-Gln-Asp-Leu-Arg-Arg-Arg-Glu-Leu-Leu-Glu-Lys-Leu-Leu-Aib-Lys-Leu-His-Thr-Ala-NH 2

The active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), BA058 API, is isolated with associated water and acetate.

 

3)             Process :

 

The manufacturing process which Radius asked Lonza to quote on for the 1 st  campaign was outlined in the 4/17/07 RFP.  The process is a solid-phase-peptidesynthesis process (SPPS) characterized by the [*] amino acids [*] and coupling agents, followed by cleavage, deprotection and work-up; the purification is performed by reverse phase HPLC which is followed by isolation by means of lyophilization.

 

In the course of the feasibility study performed by Lonza Braine in early ‘08, two different analytical methods were developed in order to properly monitor purification of the peptide.  These two methods provide much better resolution than the one received from Radius using a TFA based system.

During the C1 campaign, these methods were used for the monitoring of the primary purification of the peptide.  This has resulted in an 00C (out of criteria), as the min. of 97.0% purity was not reached at the end of this step of purification.

 

In an internal meeting, it was decided to implement a second step of purification using acetic acid medium in order to increase the purity of fractions.  At the same time, Radius requested to use the TFA method for the QC lot release.  Lonza proposed to add one of our methods for supportive data during this release.

 

By using Lonza’s analytical method, it was possible to produce an extra pure lot at 99.1% HPLC purity (Radius method).  This means also that recovery and productivity were low due to a secondary step of purification and recycling to reach the required purity.

 

The new pricing is based on yields and recoveries obtained during the C1 campaign, which should not be considered as a representative campaign.

 

For the future C2 campaign, norms to reach will be performed in TFA method (using the Radius HPLC method).

 

Concerning change of equipment, assembly of the peptide on the resin during C1 campaign has been performed in a 20 L-Pepsynloop reactor.  For a batch size of 150g NPW API, a bigger reactor will be used, such as a 50L-Pepsynloop reactor.  The upstream process will not be changed as the same technology is used in either reactor.

 

For the sake of this 1 st  amendment of the April 20 th  proposal all quantities to be produced have been revised, and the entire campaign has been recalculated.  The final quantity to be produced is 150g net peptide weight at 97.0% HPLC purity (by the Radius method) which is unchanged.  The upstream will be performed in two small-scale SPPS reactors (2 x 20 L) in parallel vs. a single 50 L reactor in the initial proposal.

 

For the sake of the 2 nd  amendment a totally new production concept has been worked up and costed.  In this case we can use mid-scale equipment:  one run in 50 L SPPS reactor and LC200 for downstream; considerably less manpower is required in this production scenario resulting in considerable cost savings vs. a 150g campaign.

 

For the sake of the 3 rd  amendment and as the request concerns the same batch size as for C1 campaign, we can use the same size equipment.  This means, small-scale SPPS reactor (20 L) and LC150 for downstream.  All improvements needed, coming from know-how acquired during C1 campaign, will be implemented in this new campaign.

Analytical Development Proposal for BA058, API project (Lonza RDS-001)

Analytical Development Proposal For BA058, API Project
(Lonza RDS-001)

 

Development proposal

 

The development proposal is divided into 3 steps that should be conducted prior to the next API batch release.

 

1.              HPLC methods comparability

 

A first step will be to establish method comparability between TG1, VG1 and FG1 HPLC methods, in order to understand the capabilities and pitfalls of these methods for true process impurities, including [3-34] and [4-34] truncated peptides.  The HPLC data will be backed up by LC/MS data to support identification of impurities and methods comparability in case of co-elution of impurities (either with the main peak or with other impurities).

 

This will also allow building a rationale for method change in future API release specifications.

 

This method comparability would be based on Lonza samples (including previously manufactured lots 5AG1R and 8AG1, [3-34] and [4-34] impurity markers, as well as DSP side fractions containing process impurities).  Should it be of interest to Radius, samples of BA058, API from other sources could also be added to this study in order to bridge these materials with the current Lonza material (8AG1).

 

Requirement:  Samples from Radius (if needed)

Timeline:  4 weeks

Deliverable:  Comparability report between 3 HPLC methods, including LC/MS identification of impurities.

Price:  €15,000

 

2.              Additional method development

 

Based on the above assessment, additional HPLC method development may have to be performed, in order to identify the method of choice (separate the critical [3-34] and [4-34] from the other process impurities), in addition to the identified HPLC method that will be used to assess overall purity and individual impurities.

 

For this, we could use alternative stationary phases (eg HILIC) or even move to UPLC (more resolution power than HPLC)

 

Timeline:  4 weeks

Deliverable:  HPLC method Development report

Price:  €15,000

 


* Confidential Treatment Requested by the Registrant.  Redacted Portion Filed Separately with the Commission

 


 

 

3.                                       HPLC methods qualification

 

Once identified, the methods of choice (probably two) found suitable for their intended purposes (quantitation of process impurities, and stability-indicating to support ICH stability studies of API and DP) will be qualified.  One of these methods could also be used to determine the API content in the powder (against an external reference standard), should this be a requirement from Radius.  This method qualification work will have to be completed before initiation of the next campaign release.

 

Timeline:  5 weeks (assuming 2 methods qualified in parallel)

Deliverable:  HPLC method Qualification protocol and report

Price:  €18,000 per method (in line with any previous proposal for method qualification)

8.                                       CONFIDENTIALITY

 

8.1                                                          The Parties agree to use reasonable efforts to maintain Information disclosed by the other in confidence, including at least efforts fully commensurate with those to protect its own confidential information.  Neither Party will use the Information of the other Party except for the performance of the work described in the Program. Each Party will disclose the Information only to its officers and employees directly concerned with the Program to whom it is necessary or useful to disclose such Information, but will neither disclose the Information to any third party nor use the Information for any other purpose; provided that Radius may disclose the Information to third party collaborator(s) as necessary for purposes of establishing Radius’ satisfaction of development milestones with respect to the Compound if such collaborators are subject to a written confidentiality agreement no less restrictive than the terms of this Section 8.  Each Party acknowledges that, except for the rights expressly granted under this Agreement, it will not obtain any rights of any sort in or to the Information of the other Party as a result of such

 

9



 

disclosure and that any such rights must be the subject of separate written agreement(s).

 

8.2                                                              The disclosing Party may at any time notify the receiving Party in writing that such receiving Party must return to the disclosing Party the disclosing Party’s Information.  Each Party hereby agrees to, within thirty (30) days of such notification:  (i) return all documents and tangible items it or its employees or agents have received or created pursuant to this Agreement pertaining, referring or relating to the other Party’s Information; and (ii) return or certify (in a writing attested to by a duly authorized officer of such Party) destruction of all copies, summaries, modifications or adaptations that such Party or its employees or agents have made from the materials provided by the disclosing Party; provided, however, that a Party is permitted to retain one copy of such materials in its legal files to be used to verify compliance with its obligations hereunder.

 

8.3                                                              Neither Party will make any public announcement as to the execution of this Agreement or its terms without the prior written authorization of the other Party.  This shall not prevent a Party from such disclosures regarding the existence or terms of this Agreement to the extent required under applicable federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation of any nationally recognized securities exchange.  In such event, however, the disclosing Party shall use good faith efforts to notify and consult with the other Party prior to such disclosure and, where applicable, shall diligently seek confidential treatment to the extent such treatment is available under applicable securities laws, rules, or regulations.  In addition, each Party may provide a copy of this Agreement or disclose the terms of this Agreement (i) to any finance provider in conjunction with a financing transaction, if such finance provider agrees to keep this Agreement confidential, (ii) to enforce its rights under this Agreement, (iii) to any legal or financial advisor of such Party, or (iv) in response to a subpoena or other validly issued administrative or judicial process requesting disclosure of same; provided , the Party that receives such order or process provides prompt notice to the disclosing Party before making any disclosure (to the extent possible) and permits the disclosing Party to oppose or narrow such request for disclosure and supports any of disclosing Party’s reasonable efforts to oppose such request (at disclosing Party’s expense) and shall disclose the terms of this Agreement only in the event of a final judgment or administrative order requiring such disclosure, and only to the extent necessary to comply with such request.

 

10



 

8.4                                                              The Parties’ obligation of nondisclosure and the limitations upon the right to use the other Party’s Information, samples and test results shall not apply to the extent that a recipient can demonstrate that the applicable Information:  (a)  was in its possession prior to the time of disclosure; or (b)  is or becomes public knowledge through no fault or omission of the receiving Party; or (c)  is obtained by the recipient from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party; or (d)  is independently developed by the receiving Party, as evidenced by the receiving Party’s written records, without access to the disclosing Party’s Information.  A receiving Party may also disclose Information if it is required to disclose the Information in response to a subpoena or other validly issued administrative or judicial process requesting disclosure of same, provided that such receiving Party will give the disclosing Party prompt notice of such request before making any disclosure (to the extent possible) and permit the disclosing Party to oppose or narrow such request for disclosure.  The disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.  If such disclosing Party seeks a protective order or other remedy, the receiving Party will cooperate and support any of the disclosing Party’s reasonable efforts to oppose such request (at disclosing Party’s expense).  If such disclosing Party fails to obtain a protective order or waive compliance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement, the receiving Party will disclose only in the event of a final judgment or administrative order requiring such disclosure, and only to the extent necessary to comply with such request.

 

8.5                                                              The obligations with respect to maintaining confidentiality and non-use of Information under Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years with respect to the Workplan and Radius’ business information, but shall remain in effect for an indefinite period of time with respect to each Party’s technical information which the disclosing Party shall indicate to be a trade secret at the time of disclosure.  In this latter case the recipient Party shall keep this trade secret as confidential unless and until it ceases to be Confidential Information pursuant to items (a), (b), (c) or (d) of Section 8.4.  It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement obligates any Party to disclose or receive any Confidential Information that is of a technical nature but that if a Party refuses to accept such Confidential Information and such Confidential Information is necessary to perform

 

11



 

the transactions contemplated by this Agreement then the disclosing Party may terminate this Agreement without any obligation to pay the costs set forth above.

10.5                                                         EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 10, NEITHER PARTY GIVES ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER MATTER OR SUBJECT ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY PATENT RIGHTS.

 

10.6                                                         3M shall indemnify, defend, and hold RADIUS harmless from and against any and all third party loss or liability for any and all judgments, claims, causes of action, suits, proceedings, losses, damages, demands, fees, expenses, fines, penalties or costs (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and disbursements) arising from any personal injury or alleged personal injury claim against Radius to the extent that such claim results from 3M’s breach of warranty, and, provided that 3M shall be liable only to the extent such breach resulted in the harm or injury for which RADIUS seeks indemnification.

 

10.7                                                         Except for the preceding indemnification provided by 3M for supplying Product that fails to meet specifications, RADIUS shall indemnify, defend, and hold 3M and 3M IPC harmless from and against any and all other third party loss or liability for any and all judgments, claims, causes

 

13



 

of action, suits, proceedings, damages, demands, fees, expenses, fines, penalties and costs (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and disbursements) arising from RADIUS’ or its agent’s use, testing or clinical studies of Product.

 

10.8                                                         Both RADIUS and 3M are obligated to promptly notify the other party of any claim for which they intend to seek indemnification under the terms of this Agreement.  Failure to give notice shall not constitute a defense, in whole or in part, to any claim by any indemnified entity hereunder except to the extent the rights of the indemnitor are materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice.  If either party accepts the defense of and indemnification for a case without reserving the right to later seek contribution or indemnity from the tendering party, then the tendering party shall have no control over the defense of such case.  If either party accepts the defense of and indemnification for a case, but reserves the right to later seek indemnity or contribution from the tendering party, then the tendering party shall have the right to actively participate in the defense of the case with the non-tendering party and outside counsel, and any settlements shall require the consent of both parties.

Exhibit A

 

WORK PLAN SUMMARY

 

Objective:

 

The objective of the work plan is to develop two additional BA-058 sMTS patch formulations and processes ( 150 and 200 µg/array), and to prepare four strengths of product ( 50 , 100 , 150 , 200 µg/array) plus a placebo to be utilized by Radius to complete preclinical tox evaluations and a Phase I clinical study.

 

Deliverables:

 

·                   Shipment of 4 distinct formulations/strengths of BA-058 sMTS (Ex Works 3M’s site) for preclinical toxicology studies and a Phase I clinical POC study (50, 100, 150, 200 µg/array)

·                   Shipment of a representative placebo sMTS (Ex Works 3M’s site) for preclinical toxicology studies and a Phase I clinical POC study

·                   Data to support the stability of key formulations of the product through the time needed to conduct the Phase I clinical POC study

·                   Data to support the stability of key formulations of the product through the proposed shelf life of the product (up to 2 years)

·                   On-site training support for clinicians for application of the sMTS

·                   3M shall establish and maintain proprietary Drug Master Files (DMFs) including information on the components, coating and manufacturing processes sufficient to support regulatory filings in the U.S. and Canada.  A right of reference to 3M’s DMFs will be granted to Radius to support regulatory filings in the U.S. and Canada.  Outside the U.S., 3M will provide Radius with nonconfidential information from the DMFs necessary to support regulatory filing in said country

·                   Formulation information sufficient to support regulatory filings in the U.S. and Canada

 

Timing :

 

The overall time estimate from start of Stage 3 to shipment of clinical supplies for the Phase I study is estimated to be 4-7 months.

 

This estimate assumes initiation of the Phase I trial as soon as possible following the preclinical tox study.  The estimate does not include timing associated with the in-vivo portion of the preclinical toxicology study.

 

19



 

Assumptions of the work plan:

 

·                   Lot sizes for BA058-sMTS drug product not to exceed [*] GMP-grade units; lot size for placebo unit not to exceed [*] units.

·                   The starting formulation (BA-058 + excipients) will be provided to 3M by Radius, sterile and in a form compatible with aseptic processing unless the formulation is determined to be stable through terminal sterilization.

·                   Radius will be responsible for executing all elements (protocols, regulatory filings, conduct) of the GLP toxicology studies.

·                   Radius will be responsible for executing all elements (protocols, regulatory filings, conduct) of the Phase I trial.

·                   Work plan assumes the use of the POC MTS applicator system and patch design.

·                   Timing required for conducting the GLP toxicology studies is not included in the estimate; timing assumes the Phase I trial will start as soon as possible following the toxicology studies.

·                   If results determine that additional doses of BA058-sMTS arrays are needed, additional costs and time may be incurred.

·                   Quantity of BA-058 required to perform the work plan is to be determined.

·                   sMTS patches for use in the POC clinical study will be bulk labeled by 3M and provided to Radius for further labeling according to the requirements of the clinical protocol.

·                   The clinical trial will be conducted in the United States or Canada under an IND sponsored by Radius.  Stability studies on key formulations will be a maximum of 24 months in length; the stability report will be completed within 2 months of the completion of the stability study.

RECITALS:

 

A.            Whereas, 3M and Radius have previously entered into a Development and Clinical Supplies Agreement dated June 19, 2009 for the development and delivery of clinical supplies up through Phase II for a BA058 coated MTS  product (“Product”) and have entered into a Second Amendment to the Agreement dated September 16, 2010 (the “Agreement”);

B.              Whereas, Radius also requires additional clinical supplies, including chronic dermal toxicology supplies

C.              Whereas, Radius  may require stability testing of any clinical or toxicology  supplies provided by 3M;

D.             Whereas, to meet Radius required timing, 3M must invest in additional facilities and equipment;

E.               Whereas Radius is willing to guaranty repayment of a portion of the planned work to enable 3M to justify its investment in the event that Radius does not expend certain additional sums with 3M under existing and future Workplans by Dec 20, 2011 ;

F.               Whereas, all terms of the Agreement not explicitly amended by this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect.  To the extent not modified or defined by this Amendment, all capitalized and defined terms shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Recitals (which are incorporated herein) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

 

1.                                        3M shall provide approximately seven thousand five hundred (7,800) chronic dermal toxicology supplies (at two doses and Placebo) in amounts shown in the table below.  3M shall invoice Radius for such supplies on a time and material basis.  The estimated cost for the Chronic Dermal Toxicology supplies is $475,000.

Workplan #3

 

RTC Process Development and Analytical Methods WORK PLAN SUMMARY

 

Objective

 

Determine operating conditions for RTC mixing and filtration that provide a robust process for preparing sterile, homogeneous ready-to-coat (RTC) formulation.  Following these experiments, the process and parameters for preparing RTC should be finalized.

 

Some method development efforts are also addressed below.

 

Background

 

[*]  Consequently, the RTC formulation is prepared by using a [*].  This results in a very inhomogeneous formulation that needs to be thoroughly mixed prior to sterile filtration.  Currently, the RTC is [*] for [*] prior to sampling.   An additional [*] of [*] does not appear to effect the concentration, but limited data is available at this time point[*] after the filtration step appears to substantially improve the consistency of the RTC.

 

Process efficiency is currently about [*].  Variations in filtration media and devices will be investigated to improve this number.

 

Scope

 

Observed response variables for the mixing experiments are average content, variance of the content, and viscosity.  Two mixing methods will be investigated: [*] (the current method) and [*], a [*].  For [*], three times ([*],[*],[*]min) prefiltration and four times ([*],[*],[*],[*] minutes) postfiltration will be tested.  For [*], three times will be investigated prefiltration ([*],[*],[*] minutes) and four times postfiltration ([*],[*] ,[*], and [*] minutes).    To investigate the effect of the RTC concentration, mixing will be performed with [*]% and [*]% bulk drug substance (w/w).  The current manufacturing process uses [*]% w/w.

 

Only one lot of BA058 will be used.  Any variability due to the lot of BA058 should be minimal due to controls on its composition.

 

Materials

 

14 g BA058

Miscellaneous lab supplies

Procedure

 

For each mixing technique, the prefiltration experiments will be performed.  The best prefiltration mixing time will be used for the postfiltration experiments.  The procedure will be repeated for the two concentrations of BA058.

 

The average and variance of the content will be determined by taking multiple samples from each mixing experiment and assayed using a validated HPLC method (Method-07-001836).   Viscosity of the RTC following each experiment will be tested using a Rheosense m-VROC.

 

Each experiment will use [*]  mL of RTC ([*] g of bulk drug substance).  Smaller volumes would not be indicative of performance at larger scales, and larger amounts result in exessive consumption of BA058.  The 14 g figure is considerably larger than previously quoted.  The previous quote assumed material could be saved by using the RTC from the mixing experiments to begin the coating process experiments.  Of course, unused RTC from this work will be saved for future use.

 

To determine the optimal approach to sterile filtration, a solution of BSA will be prepared with a viscosity similar to that of the current RTC.  This solution will be used to test filtration setups for easy of use and efficiency.  Once a suitable configuration is found, it will be tested by sterile filtering RTC and checking for changes in viscosity, purity, and content.

Archive Terms and Conditions

 

1.                                        All Study reports and any supporting documentation originating with Laboratory, whether written or physical ( e.g. , laboratory notebooks, original data, tissues, slides, photographs, etc.) are the Sponsor’s property (“Materials”).  All Materials shall remain the property of Sponsor.  Laboratory agrees to maintain industry standards in connection with the storage of the Materials and adhere to all government laws and regulations applicable to the storage of the Materials.

 

2.                                        Laboratory shall store the Materials at its current storage rates.  Laboratory may increase the rates on an annual basis upon notice to Sponsor.  If the Materials require additional and/or special storage requirements, additional charges for storage shall be assessed and invoiced to Sponsor.  Invoices shall be issued annually in advance and are due and payable upon receipt and Sponsor agrees to pay all invoices submitted.  All amounts not paid when due shall bear interest from the applicable due date until paid, at the lesser of four percent (4%) per annum above the base rate announced from time to time by Fleet Bank or its successor or the highest lawful rate of interest permitted at the time in Massachusetts.

 

3.                                        Laboratory’s liability for archival services under this Agreement, regardless of the form of action, shall not exceed the lesser of the fee paid for one year’s storage of the Materials or one thousand dollars ($1,000.00).  In no event shall Laboratory be liable for penalties or liquidated damages or for special, indirect, consequential or incidental damages of any type or kind (including, without limitation, lost profits).

 

4.                                        The term of this Agreement for archival services shall be one year and shall automatically renew unless terminated by either Laboratory or Sponsor.  Upon the termination of this Agreement, Laboratory shall contact Sponsor to determine disposition of the Materials as follows: (a) extended storage of the Materials or (b) return of the Materials to Sponsor at Sponsor’s expense.  If Sponsor requests Laboratory to continue storage of the Materials, and Laboratory agrees, the cost for storage of the Materials shall continue to be invoiced to Sponsor at Laboratory’s then current rates.  If Sponsor fails to give said instructions, Laboratory shall so notify Sponsor, and if said instructions are still not forthcoming within thirty (30) days of said notification, then Laboratory shall have the option of continuing storage of the Materials, which will be deemed to have been authorized for an additional period of not less than one (1) year or Laboratory may return the Materials to Sponsor at Sponsor’s expense.  Sponsor shall be liable for storage charges until the Materials are returned to Sponsor.  While the Materials are in transit to Sponsor, all risk of loss or exposure to the Materials shall be borne by Sponsor.

 

5.                                        Sponsor will defend, indemnify, save and hold Laboratory and its parent, subsidiaries and affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from and

In order to minimize the impact of study delays and cancellations for all sponsors, Charles River allocates resources at the time a signed Letter of Payment Authorization is received.  Please note that scheduling is not considered confirmed until a signed copy of this document is received .  By providing authorization via signature below, you will allow us to confirm a schedule for each authorized study.  Your signature further constitutes acceptance of the price and payment schedule.

 

Payment Schedule for Study Number SSU00066

 

The payment schedule and price of this study are as follows:

 


* Confidential Treatment Requested by the Registrant. Redacted Portion Filed Separately with the Commission.

 



 

·                   25%        Due upon Authorization*

 

·                   50%        Due upon Completion of In-life

 

·                   25%        Due upon Submission of Draft Report

 

Payment Schedule for Study Number SSU00067

 

The payment schedule and price of this study are as follows:

 

·                   25%        Due upon Authorization*

 

·                   50%        Due upon Completion of In-life

 

·                   25%        Due upon Submission of Draft Report

 


*Invoice(s) will be sent no more than 60 days prior to scheduled study start.

 

In the event Charles River does not receive comments pertaining to the draft report within 60 days after submission to the Sponsor, the final invoice will be due and payable.

 

Based upon the current scope of work, we would expect to initiate these studies the week of October 26, 2009.  Prior to receipt of this signed Letter of Payment Authorization this initiation date may be lost to another study vying for the same resources.

 

We understand that occasionally you may request to delay or to cancel a study due to unforeseen circumstances.  Charles River will make every reasonable effort to accommodate requested schedule changes.  However, as significant costs are incurred related to study initiation, cancellation/delay fees will apply in proportion to the number of days’ notice given (please see attached Cancellation and Delay Policy).  Cancellation/delay fees may be assessed separately for each postponement prior to the study being cancelled or initiated.  The Cancellation and Delay Policy becomes effective upon execution of this Letter of Authorization.

 

Charles River shall perform these services in accordance with the Service Agreement (the “Agreement”) executed between Charles River and RADIUS.  Once fully executed, this Letter of Payment Authorization shall be incorporated into and made part of the Agreement.

 

STUDY MATERIAL STORAGE/ARCHIVES .  After dispatch of the draft report, all raw data, samples/specimens (except for those sent to Sponsor or Sponsor designated laboratory and resultant data which are the responsibility of Sponsor) and documents generated at Charles River during this study, together with the original copy of the protocol (including amendments) and the draft report, will be retained in the secure storage area of Charles River for one (1) year at no charge.  After this one (1) year period, Sponsor will be contacted prior.  to the end of the year to authorize continued storage or return to Sponsor, at additional cost.  At finalisation, the final report and any stored materials will be transferred to the scientific archives of Charles River.  Subsequently, storage details will be documented in the raw data.

 

Any additional storage, archiving or retention will require an Extended Archiving Agreement

 

REPEAT OF SAMPLE ANALYSIS .  If applicable, the parties agree that as of commencement of work, in some instances, repeat of sample analysis will be required.  If this arises, Charles River must notify the Sponsor as soon as possible and determine, between the parties, if these repeats are required by Sponsor.  Consequently, the price per sample analysis/occasion will apply to any additional repeats requested by the Sponsor, as well as any samples above the analytical range, which require dilution.

 

2



 

However, in the event that additional sample analysis/occasions are required, Charles River shall submit a written estimate to the Sponsor for the Sponsor’s written approval, and the Sponsor shall respond to Charles River within five (5) business days, or within the specified time period sanctioned by the Sponsor for receipt of such estimates.  Once authorization is received, Charles River will endeavor, when possible, to proceed with current batches of sample analysis.  Both parties acknowledge that Charles River will be reimbursed for any amount which relates to the repeats if the difference between the original result of the sample analysis and the repeat result of the sample analysis, is within a 30% range.

 

SHIPMENT OF TEST ARTICLES .  Sponsor and Charles River agree that all costs associated with shipping test article to Charles River shall be the responsibility of the Sponsor.  Charles River shall not be responsible for any direct or indirect damages sustained by the Sponsor resulting from any loss, destruction or damage to the test article(s).

 

In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this letter and the Master Service Agreement, the terms of the Master Service Agreement shall control, unless specifically agreed upon to the contrary in this letter.

 

Please sign and return this document via facsimile or email (contact information below).  Should you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to call me.  We look forward to being of service.

TOXICOLOGY: POSTPONEMENT/CANCELLATION POLICY

 

Upon receipt of the signed quote letter or correspondence from the Sponsor confirming formal authorization, Charles River Laboratories Preclinical Services, hereinafter referred to as (“Charles River”) will order or reserve animals and allocate other resources for the specified study.

 

If the study is initiated on the scheduled start date, the most current quoted price is valid (unless advised otherwise by any revised quote letter) and no postponement or cancellation charges are applicable.

 

There will be no charges if the study is rescheduled or cancelled as long as notice is provided to Charles River in advance of the defined period of time prior to the animal arrival date.

 

Should any applicable fees be charged from the animal supplier before the above-mentioned timelines, these would be the responsibility of the Sponsor.

 

If sponsor cancels study after animal arrival and before study start the following charges will apply:

 

In the event of postponement or cancellation of the study by the Sponsor, additional compensation may be requested for items procured specifically for the study (e.g., animal purchases(1), dedicated equipment, perishable or non-reusable supplies) and any non-recoverable expenses incurred by Charles River (e.g., equipment lease payments, subcontractor charges or consultant fees to which Charles is irrevocably committed).

 

In the event the Sponsor terminates an ongoing study (i.e. early termination following dosing initiation), the Sponsor will be responsible for all incurred costs.

 

Exceptions to the above terms may be made on a case-by-case basis at Charles River sole discretion, if the study cancellation or postponement has little or no financial impact on Charles River (e.g. if notice that the study is subsequently cancelled or postponed falls within the defined period of time above pre-study period but no resources have been expended or costs incurred in the preparation for the study, and the animals can be readily used in another study [or exchanged, in the case of postponement]).

 

In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this letter and the Master Service Agreement, the terms of the Master Service Agreement shall control, unless specifically agreed upon to the contrary in this letter.

 


(1) In order to secure animals, Charles River is required to purchase the animals upon study authorization.  Therefore, should there be a cancellation thereafter by the Sponsor, the Sponsor will incur the full cost of animals ordered.

We understand that occasionally you may request to delay or to cancel a study due to unforeseen circumstances.  Charles River will make every commercially reasonable effort to accommodate requested schedule changes.

 

Charles River shall perform these services in accordance with the services agreement (the “Agreement”) executed between Charles River and RADIUS HEALTH, INC.  Once fully executed, this Letter of Payment Authorization shall be incorporated into and made part of the Agreement.

 

STUDY MATERIAL STORAGE/ARCHIVES .  After dispatch of the draft report, all raw data, samples/specimens (except for those sent to Sponsor or Sponsor designated laboratory and resultant data which are the responsibility of Sponsor) and documents generated at Charles River during this study, together with the original copy of the protocol (including amendments) and the draft report, will be retained in the secure storage area of Charles River for one (1) year at no charge.  After this one (1) year period, Sponsor will be contacted prior to the end of the year to authorize continued storage or return to Sponsor, at additional cost.  At finalisation, the final report and any stored materials will be transferred to the scientific archives of Charles River.  Subsequently, storage details will be documented in the raw data.

 

Any additional storage, archiving or retention will require an Extended Archiving Agreement.

 

REPEAT OF SAMPLE ANALYSIS .  If applicable for studies involving bioanalytical sample analysis, the parties agree that as of commencement of work, in some instances, repeat of sample analysis will be required.  If this arises, Charles River must notify the Sponsor as soon as possible and determine, between the parties, if these repeats are required by Sponsor.  Consequently, the price per sample analysis/occasion will apply to any additional repeats requested by the Sponsor, as well as any samples above the analytical range, which require dilution.  However, in the event that additional sample analysis/occasions are required, Charles River shall submit a written estimate to the Sponsor for the Sponsor’s written approval, and the Sponsor shall respond to Charles River within five (5) business days, or within the specified time period sanctioned by the Sponsor for receipt of such estimates.  Once authorization is received, Charles River will endeavor, when possible, to proceed with current batches of sample analysis.  Both parties acknowledge that Charles River will be reimbursed for any amount which relates to the repeats if the difference between the original result of the sample analysis and the repeat result of the sample analysis, is within a 30% range.

 

SHIPMENT OF TEST ARTICLES .  Sponsor and Charles River agree that all costs associated with shipping test article to Charles River shall be the responsibility of the Sponsor.  Charles River shall not be responsible for any direct or indirect damages sustained by the Sponsor resulting from any loss, destruction or damage to the test article(s).

 

In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Letter of Payment Authorization and the Agreement, the terms of the Master Service Agreement shall control, unless specifically agreed upon to the contrary in this letter.

 

Please sign and return this document via facsimile or email (contact information below).  Should you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to call me.  We look forward to being of service.

REPEAT OF SAMPLE ANALYSIS .  If applicable for studies involving bioanalytical sample analysis, the parties agree that as of commencement of work, in some instances, repeat of sample analysis will be required.  If this arises, Charles River must notify the Sponsor as soon as possible and determine, between the parties, if these repeats are required by Sponsor.  Consequently, the price per sample analysis/occasion will apply to any additional repeats requested by the Sponsor, as well as any samples above the analytical range, which require dilution.  However, in the event that additional sample analysis/occasions are required, Charles River shall submit a written estimate to the Sponsor for the Sponsor’s written approval, and the Sponsor shall respond to Charles River within five (5) business days, or within the specified time period sanctioned by the Sponsor for receipt of such estimates.  Once authorization is received, Charles River will endeavor, when possible, to proceed with current batches of sample analysis.  Both parties acknowledge that Charles River will be reimbursed for any amount which relates to the repeats if the difference between the original result of the sample analysis and the repeat result of the sample analysis, is within a 30% range.

 

SHIPMENT OF TEST ARTICLES .  Sponsor and Charles River agree that all costs associated with shipping test article to Charles River shall be the responsibility of the Sponsor.  Charles River shall not be responsible for any direct or indirect damages sustained by the Sponsor resulting from any loss, destruction or damage to the test article(s).

 

In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Letter of Payment Authorization and the Agreement, the terms of the Master Service Agreement shall control, unless specifically agreed upon to the contrary in this letter.

4.5            All royalties shall be paid by wire transfer of funds to an account at Eisai’s designated bank in Tokyo, and shall be paid in US dollars.

 

4.6            Except for income taxes that may be assessed against Eisai, all payments by Radius to Eisai under Articles 4.1-4.3 of this Agreement shall be made without deduction for or on account of any tax or all tax.  All taxes in respect of payments under this Agreement shall be for the account of Radius, and will be borne and paid by Radius prior to the date on which penalties apply.  If Radius is compelled by law to make payment subject to any tax and Eisai does not actually receive on the due date a net amount equal to the full amount provided under this Agreement, Radius shall pay all necessary additional amounts to ensure receipt by Radius of the full amount so provided for under Articles 4.1-4.3, as applicable. The Parties will cooperate to minimize, to the extent legally permissible, the tax liabilities related to this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such cooperation shall not cause any adverse tax consequences to be incurred by either Party which would not have been incurred under the provisions of this Agreement, including this Article 4.6.

Any damages and other amounts collected in any suit or the settlement thereof  that is the subject of this Article 6.12 shall be distributed first, to the Party that pursued Remedies to cover its costs and expenses and, second, to the other Party to cover its unreimbursed costs and expenses, if any, relating to the pursuit of such Remedies.  The balance, if any remaining after the Parties have been compensated for expenses shall be distributed: (a) to Radius in an amount equal to its lost profits or a reasonable royalty on the sales of the infringer with respect to activity in the Territory (whichever measure the court or settlement agreement uses to determine damages); and (b) to Eisai in an amount equal to its lost profits or a reasonable royalty on the sales of the infringer with respect to activity in Japan (whichever measure the court or settlement agreement uses to determine damages). The balance, if any, remaining after Radius has been compensated for lost profits or lost sales and Eisai has been compensated for lost royalties with respect to infringement in the Territory and Eisai has been compensated for lost profits or lost sales in Japan shall be distributed:  (i) [*] ([*]) percent to Radius and [*] ([*]) percent to Eisai in case of Radius pursuing Remedies, and (ii) [*] ([*]) percent to Eisai and [*] ([*]) percent to Radius in case of Eisai pursuing Remedies.

 

With respect to infringement of Radius Patents anywhere in the world, Radius shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue any and all

Remedies against the infringing third party.  Radius shall have a period of [*] ([*]) days after delivery to it of such notice and information to elect to so enforce such Radius Patents.  In the event Radius does not so elect, it shall so notify Eisai in writing within such [*]-day period, and Eisai shall have the right to commence a suit or take action to enforce the applicable Radius Patents against such infringing third party in Japan.  In the event Radius has a reasonable business basis not to enforce such Radius Patents in Japan, with the determination of reasonableness taking into account the costs of such litigation, its likelihood for success, the potential damages or settlement recovery, and the potential for exposure to counterclaims and defenses against Radius with respect to the validity of the Radius Patents, it shall provide Eisai such basis in writing within such [*] ([*]) day period, in which case Eisai shall not have such enforcement right in Japan.

 

In the event that a third party infringes any Joint Patents, Radius shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue Remedies against the infringing third party if such infringement is conducted in the Territory, and Eisai shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue Remedies against the infringing third party if such infringement is conducted in Japan.

 

In any event as set forth in this Article 6.12, upon request from the other Party, Eisai and Radius shall assist one another and cooperate in the pursuit of Remedies, including without limitation joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by applicable law to pursue such action, without charge to the other Party for costs and expenses incurred thereby.

 

6.13          The Parties shall keep one another informed of the status of and of their respective activities regarding any litigation or settlement thereof concerning the Product.  Neither Party shall enter into any settlement or consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any suit defended or action brought pursuant to Article 6.12 without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

7.2            This Agreement can be terminated by Radius, upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Eisai, as a whole in the Territory, based on a reasonable determination, using the same standards Radius would use in assessing whether or not to continue development and marketing of a product of its own making or to which it had similar rights, that the medical/scientific, technical, regulatory or commercial profile of the Product does not justify continued development or marketing of the Product.  Otherwise, neither Party has any right to terminate without the other Party’s consent except as specified in this Article 7.

 

7.3            This Agreement can be terminated by Eisai on a country by country basis at any time prior to the date on which Radius has filed for either a FDA NDA approval or a EMEA marketing approval with respect to a Product, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Radius in the event that Radius is not using its commercially reasonable efforts to Develop the Product in the Territory, unless such default is cured within such 90-day period (or, if such breach is not

capable of being cured within such 90-day period, within such amount of time as may be reasonably necessary to cure such breach, so long as Radius is making diligent efforts to do so.  Any termination pursuant to this Article 7.3 shall be based on Eisai’s good faith determination that Radius has not used its commercially reasonable efforts to Develop the Product in the Territory having reference to prevailing principles and time scales associated with the Development, clinical testing and government approval of products of a like nature to such Products.

 

7.4            If either Party fails to perform, in any material respect, covenants or provisions of this Agreement and if such default is not corrected within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from the other Party with respect to such default, such other Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the other Party in default.  There shall be no waiver of default or impairment of the right to give notice implied by failure to give notice in any period.

 

7.5            If, at any time, either Party shall file in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state or country, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of receiver or trustee of the Party or of its assets, or if either Party proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, or if either Party shall be served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such petition shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof, or if either Party shall propose or be a Party to any dissolution or liquidation, or if either Party shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, the other Party may terminate this Agreement.

 

7.6            Radius shall notify Eisai in advance if Radius proposes to be acquired by or to transfer all of its pharmaceutical business assets (or an essential part of such assets) or fifty (50) percent or more of its voting stock to any third party person or organization, or to otherwise come under the control of, such a person or organization, whether resulting from merger, acquisition, consolidation or

otherwise.  Eisai shall have twenty (20) business days following the receipt of such notice from Radius to notify Radius whether Eisai will deem the proposed change a termination event based on the criteria listed in items (1)-(3) below as well as the criteria listed in items (a)-(b) below and if Eisai does not provide such notice within such 20 business day period it will be deemed to have agreed that such change will not entitle Eisai to seek termination under this Article 7.6.  In the event that Radius gives such prior notice and is notified by Eisai that Eisai will deem the proposed change a termination event or Radius without giving such prior notice is acquired by or transfers all of its pharmaceutical business assets or an essential part of such assets to, or if fifty (50) percent or more of its voting stock is acquired by, or otherwise comes under the control of, a person or an organization, whether resulting from merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise, Radius shall promptly notify Eisai of such change and Eisai shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with notice to Radius delivered within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such change in the event that Eisai reasonably determines that the person or organization assuming control of Radius is not able to perform this Agreement with the same degree of skill and diligence that Radius shall use, such determination being made with reference to the following criteria with respect to the person or organization assuming control of Radius: (1) whether such person or organization has the financial resources to assume the obligations of Radius with respect to Development and commercialization of Products; (2) whether such person or organization has personnel with skill and experience adequate to assume the obligations of Radius with respect to Development and commercialization of Products at the stage of Development and commercialization as of the date of such change; and (3) whether such person or organization expressly assumes all obligations imposed on Radius by this Agreement in writing and agrees to dedicate personnel and financial resources to the Development and commercialization of the Product that are at least as great as those provided by Radius.  Radius shall give Eisai information by which Eisai can reasonably determine whether such person or organization satisfies the above criteria together with the notice of such change.  It is understood and agreed that notwithstanding the above criteria listed in (1)-(3),

1.             EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

ER-306323 is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that was originally discovered by Eisai Co., Ltd. Radius plans to develop ER-306323 for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, and for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women at risk of fracture.

 

This development plan for ER-306323 is premised upon a strategy of demonstrating a substantial improvement in tolerability over Evista® (raloxifene; Eli Lilly and Company) and other SERM’s that are currently in clinical development for the treatment of patients with osteoporosis (e.g. bazedoxifene; Wyeth Pharmaceuticals Inc.). While effective for osteoporosis, Evista induces hot flashes in many post-menopausal women which is a significant deterrent to adoption. In contrast, ER-306323 has the potential (based on a pre-clinical model) to be developed and marketed for the relief of vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, allowing a clear differentiation over currently available SERM’s and a faster development path to commercialization than is possible with the traditional osteoporosis indication.

 

Pre-clinical data suggest that ER-306323 is an agonist on bone, with comparable efficacy to raloxifene. Also, like raloxifene, ER-306323 is an antagonist on the uterus and breast. However, ER-306323 is an agonist on the CNS with demonstrated efficacy in reducing the incidence of vasomotor symptoms in a rodent model. Accordingly, the preclinical data support the strategy for developing this compound as an advance over currently available SERM’s for the relief of vasomotor symptoms, as well as for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis.

 

2.             CORE CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR ER-306323

 

The following is an outline Target Product Profile (TPP) for ER-306323. The clinical development plan is based on the expected clinical benefit and first indication of alleviation of moderate and severe vasomotor symptoms in postmenopausal women since this represents an unmet need and the most efficient path to the market, and on the second indication of prevention of continuing bone loss in the postmenopausal women at risk of osteoporosis. Not only does ER-306323’s activity on vasomotor symptoms allow for a clear differentiation over currently available SERM’s, but it also enables a faster development path than is possible with the osteoporosis prevention indication.

 

Target Product Profile — ER-306323

 

Indication:

1.

ER-306323 is indicated for the treatment of women with moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause.

 

 

 

 

2.

ER-306323 is indicated for the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women

 

 

 

Efficacy:

1.

ER-306323 demonstrates statistical and clinical efficacy in the reduction of hot flash frequency at 1 month and 3 months of exposure

 

1



 

 

2.

ER-306323 demonstrates statistical and clinical efficacy in the prevention of bone loss in postmenopausal women after 3 months of exposure

 

 

 

Safety:

1.

ER-306323 demonstrates no evidence of endometrial stimulation or hyperplasia with long-term exposure

 

 

 

 

2.

ER-306323 demonstrates an equivalent profile of safety to currently-approved selective estrogen receptor modulating agents (SERMS).

 

 

 

Presentation:

1.

ER-306323 will be formulated as a tablet for oral delivery

 

 

 

 

2.

ER-306323 will be formulated for maximal tolerance

 

 

 

Dosing:

ER-306323 will be administered [*] daily

 

2.1                                Phase 1 Clinical Program

 

The overall objective of the Phase 1 program is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of ER-306323 following single and multiple dosing. In addition, the Phase 1 program will provide information on the absolute bioavailability of the oral route of administration and provide preliminary information on the effects of food on drug absorption.

 

Phase 1a: Single ascending dose study

 

Study Objectives:

 

The objective of the Phase la study is to provide preliminary information on Safety, Tolerability and PK of ER-306323.

 

This study will be conducted at a dedicated Phase 1 clinical trial site.

 

Study Design:

 

The study is designed as a dose-escalation study. Study subjects will be healthy postmenopausal women.

 

Up to 6 doses of ER-306323 will be administered to healthy postmenopausal women at one week intervals according to the following schema (doses are estimates and will be finalized following completion of preclinical development):

Study subjects will be enrolled in groups of [*] and randomized, [*] to active treatment and [*] to placebo.

 

In addition, an additional group of subjects will receive a single dose of ER-306323 in association with food and a further group will receive an IV dose (dose also to be selected based on preclinical development data) for estimate of bioavailability. Ideally, subjects participating in the Fed and IV arms of the study will be drawn from the earlier exposure groups for more accurate statistical interpretation. [*].

 

The final design of the Phase la study for ER-306323 will be based on the results of preclinical development and will of course be subject to input from the appropriate regulatory authorities.

 

Phase lb: Multiple ascending dose study

 

The Phase lb study will provide early proof of concept for ER-306323 in the first targeted indication of alleviation of moderate and severe vasomotor symptoms in postmenopausal women.

 

Phase lb Study Objectives

 

The objectives of the Phase lb study follow:  ·

 

1.                To further demonstrate the safety and tolerance of ER-306323 in postmenopausal women and to provide early evidence of efficacy in the control of postmenopausal vasomotor symptoms.

 

2.                To evaluate PK, pharmacodynamics and safety of ER-3063223 after multiple doses.

 

The goals of this study will be met if ER-306323 demonstrates good patient tolerance and clinical evidence of a reduction of vasomotor symptoms among a population of moderate to severely symptomatic women.

 

This study will be conducted at a dedicated Phase 1 clinical trial site or sites.

By enrolling women with moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms, the Phase lb study of ER-306323 will develop data on the efficacy of ER-306323 for the alleviation of hot flashes in the index population. These data will constitute Proof of Concept for the product in this indication and provide the basis for the clinical and statistical planning for Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies.

 

This study will also collect full pharmacokinetics data on Days [*] and [*] and trough samples on other study days. Pharmacodynamic markers will include frequency of hot flash events, and markers of estrogen effect such as serum gonadotropins and serum lipids.

 

The Phase lb study will also collect preliminary information on Cardiac(QT) and endometrial safety of ER-306323 and will collect preliminary information on the potential benefits of ER-306323 for prevention of osteoporosis in this population through the pharmacodynamics effect of ER-306323 on biochemical markers of bone resorption and accretion such as [*].

 

2.2                                Phase 2 Clinical Program

 

The Phase 2 study will be a statistically powered dose-ranging program to identify the most effective dose of ER-306323 to take into Phase 3 development. The Phase 2 program will provide statistical and clinical proof of efficacy for ER-306323 in the alleviation of moderate and severe vasomotor symptoms in postmenopausal women. In addition, the Phase 2 study will provide early evidence of efficacy for ER-306323 in the indication of prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis through the assessment of bone marker and bone mineral density.

Finally, the Phase 2 program will provide preliminary evidence of endometrial safety for ER-306323.

 

Phase 2 Study Objectives:

 

The objectives of this study are therefore as follows:

 

·                   To provide a clinical and statistical basis for the selection of the optimal dose of ER-306323 to be taken forward into final development

 

·                   To demonstrate proof of efficacy of ER-306323 for reduction in frequency and severity of hot flashes in postmenopausal women.

 

·                   To determine the pharmacodynamic. effects (i.e., effects on mineral metabolism and biochemical markers of bone formation and resorption) of [*] months of treatment with ER-306323.

 

·                   To determine the effects of [*] months of treatment with ER-306323 on BMD.

 

·                   To determine the overall safety and tolerability of ER-306323 after [*] months of dosing in postmenopausal women with vasomotor symptoms.

 

·                   To determine the uterine safety of ER-306323 after [*]months of dosing in postmenopausal women with vasomotor symptoms.

 

Study Design

 

The Phase 2 study will be a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled trial covering 1 [*] of observation, followed by randomization of qualified subjects to [*] months of treatment and a 1 [*] safety follow-up period.

 

Patients will be postmenopausal women defined as having [*] months of spontaneous amenorrhea, or [*] months of spontaneous amenorrhea with serum FSH levels of > 40 IU/L, or as women who are [*]-weeks post-surgical oophorectomy.

 

Moderate hot flashes are defined as a sensation of heat with flushing but as not being incapacitating, while severe hot flashes are defined as the same but with the element of incapacitation in that the subject must stop current activity. To ensure adequate evidence of therapeutic effect is available, study participants will be required to have frequent hot flashes defined as [*] hot flashes per [*] or [*] to [*] hot flashes per [*]. During the period of observation, patient will document hot flash frequency and severity to prospectively ensure qualification on that criterion. Efficacy will be assessed as the reduction in frequency and severity of hot flashes compared to placebo.

It is estimated that the Phase 2 study will require about [*] evaluable subjects to achieve its stated goals. The Phase 2 study will provide evidence of dose-dependent efficacy for ER-306323 and will also provide adequate statistical power to select the optimal dose for Phase 3. The criteria for dose selection will be based on an integration of the major efficacy and safety variables of the study.

 

In addition, the Phase 2 data will also provide statistical evidence of effect of ER-306323 on markers of bone resorption and accretion while providing preliminary evidence of effect of ER-306323 on bone density.

 

Like the Phase lb study, the Phase 2 study will continue to provide additional pharmacodynaraics effects of ER-306323 such as estrogenic effects on serum gonadotropins and serum lipids. Markers of bone effect will again be collected such as serum osteocalcin, bone procoilagen 1 carboxy-terminal propeptide (PICP), N-propeptide of Type-1 collagen (PIMP) and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase.

 

Additional safety information on cardiac (QT) safety and endometrial safety of ER-306323 will be evaluated in more detail through endometrial biopsy in a subset of patients in each treatment group. Finally, estrogenic effect. of ER-306323 on coagulation factors will also be assessed.

2.3                                Phase 3 Clinical Program

 

The Phase 3 study is designed to provide evidence of long-term endometrial safety of ER-306323. In addition, the Phase 3 study will provide additional confirmation of efficacy of ER-306323 for reduction in frequency and severity of hot flashes in women with moderate and severe postmenopausal vasomotor symptoms.

The Phase 3 trial will be a statistically-powered, double-blind, randomized, multicenter trial that will be powered on the basis of the reduction of hot flashes but which will enroll a sufficient number of women to provide adequate assessment of endometrial safety over 12 months. It is generally requested that more than one dose of the new medication be studied in the Phase 3 safety trial. As a study of endometrial safety, the Phase 3 trial will only enroll women with an intact uterus and, as a safety measure, will exclude women with any history of breast cancer or of a recent abnormal mammogram.

 

This study will also provide further evidence of the efficacy of ER-306323 on BMI), while not in the traditional population of women with documented severe osteoporosis.

 

Phase 3 Study Objectives:

 

The objectives of this study are therefore as follows:

 

·                   To provide clinical evidence of the long-term endometrial safety of ER-306323 in postmenopausal women with moderate and severe vasomotor symptoms.

 

·                   To confirm, clinically and statistically, the therapeutic benefit of ER-306323 for treatment of moderate and severe vasomotor symptoms in menopause

 

·                   To provide evidence of the long-term benefit of ER-306323 for prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

 

·                   To determine the overall safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of ER-306323 in postmenopausal women with vasomotor symptoms.

 

Study Design

 

The Phase 3 study will be a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled trial covering 1 [*] of observation, followed by randomization of qualified subjects to [*] months of treatment and a 1 [*] safety follow-up period. Two doses of ER 206323 will be studied.

 

Patients will be postmenopausal women defined as being 45 years old or greater and having [*] months of spontaneous amenorrhea, or [*] months of spontaneous amenorrhea with serum FSH levels of > [*] IU/L, or as women who are [*]-weeks post-surgical oophorectomy.

 

As for the Phase 2 study, hot flash frequency and severity will be established during a pretreatment period of observation and qualifying patients will be then eligible to enroll in the study.

 

As before, the criterion for entry will be a frequency of [*]hot flashes per day or [*] to [*] hot flashes per [*]. Efficacy will be assessed as the reduction in frequency and severity of hot flashes compared to placebo.

It is estimated that the Phase 3 study will require about [*] subjects to provide adequate evidence of clinical safety for ER-306323. Since [*]doses of ER-306323 will be administered in this trial, there will be at least [*] patients available to provide endometrial safety data on this product.

 

While powered beyond this need, the Phase 3 study will provide confirmatory evidence of efficacy for ER-306323. The [*] doses to be employed in the Phase 3 trial will include the [*] as identified in the Phase 2 study as well as [*] provide [*]. Efficacy will be based on difference in efficacy [*]. Endometrial safety will be based on self-reported vaginal bleeding, endometrial ultrasound and endometrial biopsy data. Endometrial biopsy data will be assessed according to objective common criteria by a panel of [*]pathologists in [*] independent medical institutions.

 

The Phase 3 study will provide additional long-term safety information on serum lipids and on coagulation markers such as [*]. Influence of ethnicity on efficacy and safety will be assessed and drug-drug interaction effects will also be evaluated where appropriate.

 

BMD will also be assessed at start and end of treatment and treatment effect will be compared to [*]. Markers of bone metabolism will also be assessed.

 

Finally, overall clinical and laboratory safety will be assessed throughout the study.

2.4                                Other Clinical Studies in the Vasomotor Symptom Indication

 

In addition to the Core Clinical Development Studies outlined above, additional studied will likely be required for approval of ER-306323 for treatment of postmenopausal vasomotor symptoms.

Drug-drug interaction studies will likely be required depending on the metabolic pathway of ER-306323. At present, drugs commonly used in this population that may require study would be digoxin, diuretics, antacids, and antihypertensives.

 

A dedicated QT interval study may also be required, in particular in the USA, since a complete package of cardiac safety is usually now a condition of approval for new clinical entities.

 

2.5                                Clinical Studies for the Osteoporosis Indication

 

The osteoporosis indication will require additional preclinical studies including [*]. It is required that this assessment be performed in [*] species.

 

Since the indication of prevention of bone loss requires statistical evidence of reduction in bone loss and documentation of a positive effect on fracture frequency, [*] years of exposure is needed to obtain the statistical benefit. hi addition, the population at risk for vertebral and hip fracture is women with more severe osteoporosis and, while there may be some overlap between this population and women with moderate or severe vasomotor symptoms, they are essentially distinct populations. Therefore, while the data on bone metabolism collected during the development of the vasomotor symptomatology indication may be very helpful for the further development of the osteoporosis/fracture prevention indication, additional separate statistically-powered studies would be required for registration of ER-306323 for the second indication. [*].

 

Studies to register ER-306323 for the osteoporosis indications are required to be compliant with the FDA Guideline “Guidelines for Preclinical and Clinical Evaluation of Agents used in the Prevention or Treatment of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis” issued April, 1994, and with EMEA Guidance “Note for Guidance on Postmenopausal Osteoporosis in Women” issued in January, 2001 and modified in April 2005. Both guidelines recommend the study of BMD as the primary outcome for prevention of osteoporosis but advise that data on fracture occurrence must also be provided in the final submission documents. In the case of FDA guidelines, approval for the prevention of bone loss in postmenopausal women is contingent on proof of fracture prevention or at least a trend towards fracture prevention [*]with a post-marketing commitment to continue the study until statistical confirmation of efficacy for fracture prevention is achieved. Such a requirement requires substantial number of patients to be enrolled.

 

The study population is recommended to be postmenopausal and to have a documented bone density of at least [*]standard deviation below the population norm for the study of fracture prevention. Prior studies in this indication have generally enrolled and treated about 600 — 3000 patients.

 

In the absence of a specific Phase 2 dose-finding study in this population, it is possible that FDA will request to consider two doses in the definitive Phase 3 trial. However, this remains a speculation and an item for regulatory consultation.

 

Finally, the endometrial safety study employed for the registration of the vasomotor symptomatology indication would likely be sufficient to support the long-term safety requirement of the osteoporosis prevention indication also.

2.6                                Phase 3 Clinical Program for Osteoporosis Prevention

 

The Phase 3 study is designed to provide clinical and statistical evidence of the efficacy and long-term safety of ER-306323 in the prevention of fracture and the reduction in bone loss in postmenopausal women. Therefore, an initial study period of [*] years is anticipated to meet the conditions of approvability..

 

The Phase 3 trial for fracture prevention will be a [*] trial that will be powered on the basis of fracture prevention and prevention of bone loss over the duration of exposure. While both FDA and EMEA accept comparative trials for prevention of bone loss, the

 

requirement of FDA that reduction in fracture incidence be shown suggests that only placebo-control will be acceptable. However, with approval of a related molecule in the same class which has been registered through placebo-controlled trials, a comparative trial may be negotiated.

 

The primary efficacy outcome will be prevention of bone loss as assessed by [*] and a trend toward fracture prevention as assessed [*].

 

BMD will be assessed by [*]. Subsets of patients will be also assessed using more sensitive methods of bone density measurement such as quantitative computerized tomography (qCT) and extreme CT with measures cortical and trabecular bone density in the extremities. Fracture data for all fractures, vertebral and hip fractures will be collected and analyzed collectively and separately.

 

Phase 3 Study Objectives:

 

The objectives of this study are therefore as follows:

 

·                   To provide clinical and statistical evidence of reduction in bone loss and to provide evidence of a trend towards prevention of fractures with long-term treatment with ER-306323

 

·                   To determine the overall safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of ER-306323 in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who are at risk of fracture.

 

Study Design

 

The Phase 3 study will be a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled trial consisting of [*] years of treatment with either ER-306323 or placebo.

 

Patients will be postmenopausal women defined as being 55 years old or greater and being at least [*] years postmenopausal, with serum FSH levels of [*] 1-U/L and serum estradiol of [*] pg/mL. Patients will have a BMD of [*]standard deviations below the norm or [*]standard deviations below the norm if additional risk factors of fracture are identified such as age > 65 years, maternal history of fracture, or prior documented fracture.

3.                                       PROCESS DEVELOPMENT

 

The current synthesis route for ER-306323 is a complex, [*] step process not readily amenable to large scale Dynthesis. Several alternate routes are currently being evaluated, with selection of a new route required in 2H06. Delivery of the first GMP drug lot is targeted for 1H07.

 

To support early preclinical efficacy pharmacology and safety studies, an initial drug lot, prepared using the current synthetic route, has been initiated.

4.                                       NON-CLINICAL PROGRAM

 

4.1                                General Pharmacology

 

Studies have been completed to establish the activity of ER-306323 in a rodent model of morphine withdrawl induced hot flash. In this model, ER-306323 suppresses the elevation of skin temperature associated with morphine withdraw, supporting the proposed application of this drug to treat vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause.

 

To establish osteoporosis efficacy studies will need to be performed to identify bone protective doses of ER-306323. This will be conducted using a rat model of [*] osteoporosis, with a comparison to active reference agents, [*]. Endpoints for these studies will include measurement of [*] and [*], analysis of [*] using [*] and assessment of [*].

 

4.2                                Toxicology, Safety Pharmacology and ADME

 

A safety package sufficient to support an IND will need to be completed. This package will include assessment of genotoxicity, pharmacokinetics and metabolism, toxicology and safety pharmacology. To support the proposed phase I study design, we anticipate conducting a [*]-week repeat dosing toxicology study in both rats and monkeys.

 

Completion of the IND supporting safety package is expected in 2H07.

5.                                       REGULATORY STRATEGY

 

Prior to initiation of the proposed clinical development activities for ER-306323, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will be consulted as to the appropriateness of the preclinical safety information and the early clinical activities for the ultimate development goals. On completion of the Phase 1 studies, FDA will again be consulted on the appropriateness of the Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical development studies for the registration of ER-306323 for the postmenopausal vasomotor symptom study. At that time, the necessity for, the timing and the design of any additional studies required for registration, such as drug interaction or cardiac QT safety studies, will be discussed.

 

In addition, at the time of the pre-Phase 2 meeting with FDA, the preclinical data and Phase 1 data will be communicated with the EMEA to ensure agreement on the appropriateness of the development plan for European registration.

 

Early consultation is proposed to ensure an efficient development program and earliest possible approval. Subsequent to first formal contact with the respective agencies, issues of product quality will be addressed on an ongoing basis.

 

Based on the need to manufacture product for Preclinical and Safety studies and to complete the Quality and Preclinical information submission package, it is expected that the preIND meeting will be held in Q4,2007 and that the IND will be filed 1H08.

(h)                                  (i) In the event of and simultaneously with the closing of an Event of Sale (as hereinafter defined), the Corporation shall, unless waived by the Existing Senior Majority or otherwise prevented by law, redeem all of the shares of Series C Stock, Series B Stock and Series A Stock then outstanding for a cash amount per share determined as set forth below in this Section A.4(h) hereof (the “ Special Liquidation Price ,” said redemption being referred to herein as a “ Special Liquidation ”).  In the event the Event of Sale involves consideration that does not consist of cash, then the Special Liquidation Price may be paid with such consideration having a value equal to the Special Liquidation Price.  To the extent there is any cash consideration in connection with an Event of Sale, at the option of the holders of a majority of the Series C Stock, the cash consideration will first (i) be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the Series C Stockholders (in relative proportion to the full liquidation preference the Series C Stockholders would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full); then (ii) be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the holders of Series B Stock (in relative proportion to the full liquidation preference the Series B Stockholders would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full), prior to the payment thereof to any other stockholders of the Corporation; and (iii) then be applied to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price payable to the holders of Series A Stock (in relative proportion to the full liquidation preference the Series A Stockholders would have received had there been sufficient cash consideration to have paid their liquidation preference in full), prior to the payment thereof to any other stockholders of the Corporation.  For all purposes of this Section A.4(h), the Special Liquidation Price shall be equal to that amount per share which would be received by each Existing Preferred Stockholder if, in connection with an Event of Sale, all the consideration paid in exchange for the assets or the shares of capital stock (as the case may be) of the Corporation were actually paid to and received by the Corporation and the Corporation were immediately thereafter liquidated and its assets distributed pursuant to Sections A.4(a) through (h) hereof.  To the extent that one or more redemptions (as described in Section A.5 hereof) and/or Special Liquidations are occurring concurrently, the Special Liquidation under this Section A.4(h) shall be deemed to occur first.  The date upon which the Special Liquidation shall occur is sometimes referred to herein as the “ Special Liquidation Date ”.

 

(ii)                                   In the absence of an applicable waiver pursuant to Section A.4(h)(i) above, at any time on or after the Special Liquidation Date, an Exisiting Preferred Stockholder shall be entitled to receive the Special Liquidation Price for each such share of Series C Stock, Series B Stock or Series A Stock owned by such holder.  Subject to the provisions of Section A.4(h)(iii) hereof, payment of the Special Liquidation Price will be made to each such holder upon actual delivery to the Corporation or its transfer agent of the certificate of such holder representing such shares of Series A Stock, Series B Stock or Series C Stock, as the case may be, or an affidavit of loss as to the same.

 

(iii)                                If on the Special Liquidation Date less than all the shares of either Series C Stock, Series B Stock or Series A Stock then outstanding may be legally redeemed by the Corporation, the Special Liquidation shall be made first as to the Series C Stock pro rata with respect to such Series C Stock based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series C Stock then owned by each such holder thereof until such holders are satisfied in full, then to the holders of the Series B Stock pro rata with respect to such Series B Stock based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series B Stock then owned by each holder thereof, and then to the holders of the Series A Stock pro rata with respect to such Series A Stock based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series A Stock then owned by each holder thereof.

 

(iv)                               On and after any Special Liquidation Date, all rights in respect of the shares of Existing Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall cease and terminate except the right to receive the applicable Special Liquidation Price as provided herein, and such shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall

 

8



 

no longer be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not the certificates representing such shares of Existing Preferred Stock have been received by the Corporation; provided , however , that, if the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Special Liquidation Price with respect to any Existing Preferred Stock, the rights of the holder(s) thereof with respect to such shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall continue until the Corporation cures such default.

 

(v)                                  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, all or any of the provisions of this Section A.4(h) may be waived by the Existing Senior Majority, by delivery of written notice of waiver to the Corporation prior to the closing of any Event of Sale.

 

(vi)                               Any notice required to be given to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section A.7(g) hereof in connection with an Event of Sale shall include a statement by the Corporation of (A) the Special Liquidation Price which each Preferred Stockholder shall be entitled to receive upon the occurrence of a Special Liquidation under this Section A.4(h) and (B) the extent to which the Corporation will, if at all, be legally prohibited from paying each holder of Preferred Stock the Special Liquidation Price.

 

(vii)                            For purposes of this Section A.4(h), an “Event of Sale” shall mean: (A) the sale by the stockholders of voting control of the Corporation, (B) the merger, consolidation or reorganization with or into any other corporation, entity or person or any other corporate reorganization, in which (I) the capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization represents less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization or (II) the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) has a class of securities that is (or has been within 90 days prior to such transaction) tradeable on any public market or exchange or (C) the sale, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or intellectual property of the Corporation in a single transaction or series of related transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else expressed or implied herein, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall not be an “Event of Sale” for purposes of this Certificate.

 

5.                Redemption .

 

(a)                                   At the request of the Existing Senior Majority (the “ Requesting Holders ”) made at any time on or after December 15, 2011, the Corporation shall redeem on the Redemption Date, unless otherwise prevented by law, at a redemption price per share equal to the Series C Original Purchase Price for each share of Series C Stock and Series B Original Purchase Price for each share of Series B Stock, plus in each case an amount equal to any declared or accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, all of the Existing Senior Preferred Stock outstanding at the time that such request is made.  The total sum payable per share of Existing Senior Preferred Stock on the Redemption Date is hereinafter referred to as the “Redemption Price,” and the payment to be made on the Redemption Date is hereinafter referred to as the “Redemption Payment.”  Notwithstanding any limitations specified in this Section A.5, in the event that the Corporation at any time breaches any of the provisions in the this Certificate or any of its representations, warranties, covenants and/or agreements set forth in (i) that certain Stockholders’ Agreement among the Corporation and the parties set forth therein (as amended, the “ Stockholders’ Agreement ”) or that certain Series C Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement among the Corporation and the signatories thereto (the “ Stock Purchase Agreement ”), each as entered into contemporaneously with the filing of the Prior Certificate, or (ii) that certain Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of November 14, 2003 among the Corporation and the signatories thereto (as amended, the “ Series B Stock Purchase Agreement ”), then upon any such breach the Senior Majority may elect, at their sole discretion, if any such breach is not cured by the 60th day after receipt by the Corporation of notice of such breach from a holder, to accelerate the maturity of

the rights of all of the holders under this Section A.5(a) and cause the immediate redemption of all of the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock held by them (less any shares that the Corporation is prevented by law from redeeming, which shall be redeemed by the Corporation as soon as permitted under law).  With respect to a breach of which the Corporation is aware or reasonably should be aware, such 60 day period within which the Corporation shall have the right to cure such breach shall be deemed to have commenced on the tenth day after the occurrence of such breach, irrespective of notice of such breach from any holder, if the Corporation shall not have notified the holders of such breach by such date.

 

(b)                                  On and after the Redemption Date, all rights of any Requesting Holder with respect to those shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock being redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to Section A.5(a), except the right to receive the applicable Redemption Price per share, shall cease and terminate, and such shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not the certificates representing such shares have been received by the Corporation; provided , however , that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (A) if the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Redemption Payment, the rights of the Requesting Holder with respect to its shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock shall continue until the Corporation cures such default, and (B) without limiting any other rights of a Requesting Holder, upon the occurrence of a subsequent Liquidation, with respect to the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock in respect of which no Redemption Payment has been received by a Requesting Holder, such Requesting Holder shall be accorded the rights and benefits set forth in Section A.4 hereof in respect of such remaining shares, as if no prior redemption request had been made.

 

(c)                                   If the Requesting Holders elect to exercise redemption rights hereunder, such Requesting Holders shall send notice of such election (the “ Redemption Notice ”) by first-class, certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the Corporation at its principal place of business or to any transfer agent of the Corporation.  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Redemption Notice, the Corporation shall notify in writing all other Existing Senior Preferred Stockholders of the request by a Requesting Holder for the redemption of Existing Senior Preferred Stock (the “ Corporation Notice ”).  On the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the date upon which the Corporation received the Redemption Notice, the Corporation shall pay each holder of Existing Senior Preferred Stock the applicable Redemption Price pursuant to the terms of Section A.5(a), provided that the Corporation or its transfer agent has received the certificate(s) representing the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock to be redeemed.  Such payment date shall be referred to herein as the “Redemption Date.”  If, on the Redemption Date, less than all the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock may be legally redeemed by the Corporation, the redemption of Existing Senior Preferred Stock shall be pro rata according to the respective amounts which would be payable to the Existing Senior Preferred Stockholders in respect of their shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock if the Redemption Price were paid in full for all such shares, and any shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock not redeemed shall be redeemed on the first date following such Redemption Date on which the Corporation may lawfully redeem such shares (pro rata according to the respective amounts which would be payable to the Existing Senior Preferred Stockholders in respect of the remaining shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock if the Redemption Price were paid in full for all such shares).  The Corporation shall redeem (to the extent permitted by law) the shares of Existing Senior Preferred Stock on the Redemption Date and the Corporation shall promptly advise each holder of Existing Senior Preferred Stock of the Redemption Date or of the relevant facts applicable thereto preventing such redemption.  Upon redemption of only a portion of the number of shares covered by a Existing Senior Preferred Stock certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of such Existing Senior Preferred Stock certificate, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of the Existing Senior Preferred Stock representing the unredeemed portion of the Existing Senior Preferred Stock certificate, which new certificate shall entitle the holder thereof to all the rights, powers and privileges of a holder of such shares.

(a)                                   Any Existing Preferred Stockholder shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, to convert any or all of its shares of Existing Preferred Stock into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock for each share of Existing Preferred Stock so converted equal to the quotient of the Series A Original Purchase Price, Series B Original Purchase Price or Series C Original Purchase Price, as applicable, for such share divided by the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion Price or the Series C Conversion Price (each as defined in Section A.7(e) hereof), as applicable, for such share of Existing Preferred Stock, as last adjusted and then in effect, rounded up to the nearest one-tenth of a share; provided , however , that cash shall be paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of Common Stock, as provided in Section A.7(d) hereof.

 

(b)                                  (i) Any Existing Preferred Stockholder who exercises the right to convert shares of Existing Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, pursuant to this Section A.7 shall be entitled to payment of all accrued dividends, whether or not declared and all declared but unpaid dividends payable with respect to such Existing Preferred Stock pursuant to Section A.3 herein, up to and including the Conversion Date (as defined in Section A.7(b)(iii) hereof).

 

(ii)                                   Any Existing Preferred Stockholder may exercise the right to convert such shares into Common Stock pursuant to this Section A.7 by delivering to the Corporation during regular business hours, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent of the Corporation or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or certificates for the shares to be converted (the “ Existing Preferred Certificate ”), duly endorsed or assigned in blank to the Corporation (if required by it) or an affidavit of loss as to the same.

 

(iii)                                Each Existing Preferred Certificate shall be accompanied by written notice stating that such holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock (the “ Common Certificate ”) are to be issued.  Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the “ Conversion Date .”

 

(iv)                               As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, at the place designated by such holder, (A) a Common Certificate for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and (B) a check or cash in respect of any fractional interest in shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, as provided in Section A.7(d) hereof, payable with respect to the shares so converted up to and including the Conversion Date.

 

(v)                                  The person in whose name the Common Certificate or Certificates are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date, unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on such Conversion Date, in which event the holder shall be deemed to have become the stockholder of record on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, provided that the Series A Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price or Series C Conversion Price, as applicable, upon which the conversion shall be executed shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date.

 

(vi)                               Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of shares covered by an Existing Preferred Certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of such Existing Preferred Certificate, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of Existing Preferred Stock representing the unconverted portion of the Existing Preferred Certificate, which new certificate shall entitle the holder thereof to all the rights, powers and privileges of a holder of such Existing Preferred Stock.

 

14



 

(c)                                   If an Existing Preferred Stockholder shall surrender more than one share of the same class of Existing Preferred Stock for conversion at any one time, then the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Existing Preferred Stock so surrendered.

 

(d)                                  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of Existing Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall instead pay a cash adjustment for any such fractional interest in an amount equal to the Current Market Price thereof on the Conversion Date, as determined in accordance with Section A.7(e)(vii) hereof.

 

(e)                                   For all purposes of this Article III, Part A, the initial conversion price of the Series A Stock shall be the Series A Original Purchase Price, the initial conversion price of the Series B Stock shall be the Series B Original Purchase Price and the initial conversion price of the Series C Stock shall be the Series C Original Purchase Price, in each case subject to adjustment from time to time as follows (the conversion price of any or each of the Series A Stock, Series B Stock and the Series C Stock, as adjusted from time to time, is sometimes referred to generically in this Section A.7 as the “ Conversion Price ”):

 

(i)                                      Subject to Section A.7(e)(ii) and A.7(e)(x) below, if the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Effective Time, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (which term, for purposes of this Section A.7(e)(i), including all subsections thereof, shall be deemed to include all other securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock (including, but not limited to, Existing Preferred Stock) or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, in each case other than Excluded Stock (as defined in Section A.7(e)(ii) below), for a consideration per share less than the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Common Stock or other securities (a “ Dilutive Issuance ”), then (X) the Conversion Price for the Series A Stock (the “ Series A Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series A Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, upon exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants or otherwise under Section A.7(e)(i)(d)) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series C Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, upon exercise of outstanding stock options or otherwise under Section A.7(e)(i)(d)) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued, (Y) the Conversion Price for the Series B Stock (the “ Series B Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series B Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series C Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of

 

15



 

additional stock so issued, and (Z) the Conversion Price for the Series C Stock (the “ Series C Conversion Price ”) in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series C Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series C Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Existing Preferred Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued.  For purposes of this Section A.7(e)(i), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon conversion of such outstanding shares of Existing Preferred Stock shall be determined without giving effect to any adjustments to the applicable Conversion Price resulting from the Dilutive Issuance that is the subject of this calculation.  For the purposes of any adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section A.7(e)(i), the following provisions shall be applicable.

 

a.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock in whole or in part for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor after deducting therefrom any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, plus the value of any property other than cash received by the Corporation, determined as provided in Section A.7(e)(i)(b) hereof, plus the value of any other consideration received by the Corporation determined as set forth in Section A.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

b.                                       In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part in property other than cash, the value of such property other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, irrespective of any accounting treatment; provided , however , that such fair market value of such property as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate Current Market Price (as defined in Section A.7(e)(viii) hereof) of the shares of Common Stock or such other securities being issued, less any cash consideration paid for such shares, determined as provided in Section A.7(e)(i)(a) hereof and less any other consideration received by the Corporation for such shares, determined as set forth in Section A.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

c.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in whole or in part other than cash or property, the value of such other consideration shall be deemed to be the aggregate par value of such Common Stock (or the aggregate stated value if such Common Stock has no par value).

 

d.                                       In the case of the issuance of options or other rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or the issuance of securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable or exercisable securities:

 

i.                                           the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections A.7(e)(i)(a), (b)

 

16



 

and (c) hereof), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections A.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

 

ii.                                        the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of, or in exchange for, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Corporation for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections A.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

 

iii.                                     if there is any change (whether automatic pursuant to the terms contained therein or as a result of the amendment of such terms) in the exercise price of, or number of shares deliverable upon exercise of, any such options or rights or upon the conversion or exchange of any such convertible or exchangeable securities (other than a change resulting from the original antidilution provisions thereof in place at the time of issuance of such security), then the applicable Conversion Price shall automatically be readjusted in proportion to such change (notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this clause shall have the effect of increasing the applicable Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the applicable Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii) the applicable Conversion Price that would have resulted from any Dilutive Issuances between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date);

 

iv.                                    upon the expiration of any such options or rights or the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities (or in the event that the change that precipitated an adjustment pursuant to Section A.7(e)(i)(d)(iii) hereof is reversed or terminated, or expires), then the applicable Conversion Price shall be automatically readjusted to the applicable Conversion Price that would have been obtained had such options, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities not been issued; and

 

v.                                       if the terms of any option or convertible security (excluding options or convertible securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive shares of Common Stock which are Excluded Stock), the issuance of which was not a Dilutive Issuance, are revised after the Original Issuance Date (either automatically pursuant the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such option or convertible security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such option or convertible security, as so amended, and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

 

(ii)                                   “Excluded Stock” shall mean:

 

a.                                        Common Stock issued upon conversion of any shares of Existing Preferred Stock, including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Existing Preferred Stock;

a.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock in whole or in part for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor after deducting therefrom any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, plus the value of any property other than cash received by the Corporation, determined as provided in Section B.7(e)(i)(b) hereof, plus the value of any other consideration received by the Corporation determined as set forth in Section B.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

b.                                       In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part in property other than cash, the value of such property other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of

 

40


 

Directors, irrespective of any accounting treatment; provided , however , that such fair market value of such property as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate Current Market Price (as defined in Section B.7(e)(viii) hereof) of the shares of Common Stock or such other securities being issued, less any cash consideration paid for such shares, determined as provided in Section B.7(e)(i)(a) hereof and less any other consideration received by the Corporation for such shares, determined as set forth in Section B.7(e)(i)(c) hereof.

 

c.                                        In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in whole or in part other than cash or property, the value of such other consideration shall be deemed to be the aggregate par value of such Common Stock (or the aggregate stated value if such Common Stock has no par value).

 

d.                                       In the case of the issuance of options or other rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or the issuance of securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable or exercisable securities:

 

i.                                           the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections B.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections B.7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);

iii.                                     if there is any change (whether automatic pursuant to the terms contained therein or as a result of the amendment of such terms) in the exercise price of, or number of shares deliverable upon exercise of, any such options or rights or upon the conversion or exchange of any such convertible or exchangeable securities (other than a change resulting from the original antidilution provisions thereof in place at the time of issuance of such security), then the applicable Conversion Price shall automatically be readjusted in proportion to such change (notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this clause shall have the effect of increasing the applicable Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the applicable Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii) the applicable Conversion Price that would have resulted from any Dilutive Issuances between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date);

 

iv.                                    upon the expiration of any such options or rights or the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities (or in the event that the change that precipitated an adjustment pursuant to Section

 

41



 

B.7(e)(i)(d)(iii) hereof is reversed or terminated, or expires), then the applicable Conversion Price shall be automatically readjusted to the applicable Conversion Price that would have been obtained had such options, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities not been issued; and

 

v.                                       if the terms of any option or convertible security (excluding options or convertible securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive shares of Common Stock which are Excluded Stock), the issuance of which was not a New Dilutive Issuance, are revised after the Series A-1 Original Issuance Date (either automatically pursuant the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such option or convertible security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such option or convertible security, as so amended, and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

Each ROFR Stockholder may delegate its rights and obligations with respect to such Offer to one or more members of its Group, which members shall thereafter be deemed to be “ROFR Stockholders” for the purpose of applying this Section 2.3 to such Offer.

The Notice of Acceptance must be delivered to the Corporation prior to the end of the 30-Day Period.

Upon the closing of the sale of the Offered Securities to be purchased by the ROFR Stockholders and the Excess Securities to be purchased by ROFR Stockholders, each ROFR Stockholder shall (i) purchase from the Corporation that portion of the Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, for which it tendered a Notice of Acceptance and an Excess Securities Notice, as applicable, upon the terms specified in the Offer, and (ii) execute and deliver an agreement further restricting transfer of such Offered Securities substantially as set forth in Section 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of this Agreement.

16



 

(ii)            If: (A) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date or has not been declared effective by the Commission by the Effectiveness Date, or (B) the Corporation fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within 5 Trading Days of the date that the Corporation is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or not be subject to further review, or (C) prior to the Effectiveness Date of a Registration Statement, the Corporation fails to file a pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement within 14 calendar days after the receipt of comments by or notice from the Commission that such amendment is required in order for such Registration Statement to be declared effective, or (D) after the Effectiveness Date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or the Holders are otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for more than 20 consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of 40 calendar days during any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive calendar days) (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “ Event ”, and for purposes of clause (A) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (B) the date on which such 5 Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (C) the date which such 14 calendar day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (D) the date on which such 20 or 40 calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as an “ Event Date ”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Corporation shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder.  The parties agree that the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to a Holder under this Agreement shall be sixteen percent (16%) of the aggregate Purchase Price (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) paid by such Holder pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement.  If the Corporation fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) in full within seven days after the date payable, the Corporation will pay interest thereon at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full.

If any Holder fails to furnish its Selling Stockholder Questionnaire related to a particular Registration Statement not less than 2 Trading Days prior to the Filing Date or by the end of the 4 th  Trading Day following the date on which such Holder receives draft materials in accordance with this Section, any liquidated damages that are accruing, as well as any other rights of such Holder under this Agreement with regard to such Registration Statement, including without limitation, the right to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement, shall be tolled as to such Holder until such information is received by the Corporation; provided , however , that the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include such Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement or the next most available Registration Statement as soon as possible after such information is furnished to the Corporation.

(b)            Each holder of Registrable Securities shall have 30 days from the receipt of such notice to deliver to the Corporation a written request specifying the number of Registrable Shares such holder intends to sell and the holder’s intended method of disposition.

(e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter of any such proposed registration determines and advises in writing that the inclusion of all Registrable Shares proposed to be included in the underwritten public offering, together with any other issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock proposed to be included therein by holders other than the holders of Registrable Securities (such other shares hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ Other Shares ”) would interfere with the successful marketing of the Corporation’s securities, then the total number of such securities proposed to be included in such underwritten public offering shall be reduced, (i) first by the shares requested to be included in such registration by the holders of Other Shares, (ii) second, if necessary by all Registrable Securities which are not Series A-2 Registrable Securities, Series A-3 Registrable Securities or Series A-1 Registrable Securities, and (iii) third, if necessary, (A) one-half (1/2) by the securities proposed to be issued by the Corporation, and (B) one-half (1/2) by the holders of Series A-2 Registrable Shares, Series A-3 Registrable Shares and/or Series A-1 Registrable Shares proposed to be included in such registration by the holders thereof, on a pro rata basis calculated based upon the number of Registrable Shares, Series A-2 Registrable Shares, Series A-3 Registrable Shares or Series A-1 Registrable Shares sought to be registered by each such holder; provided , that the aggregate number of securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders of Series A-2 Registrable Shares, Series A-3 Registrable Shares and/or Series A-1 Registrable Shares shall only be reduced hereunder if and to the extent that such securities exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of securities included in such registration. The shares of Common Stock that are excluded from the underwritten public offering pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be withheld from the market by the holders thereof for a period, not to exceed 90 days from the closing of such underwritten public offering, that the managing underwriter reasonably determines as necessary in order to effect such underwritten public offering.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

The following Plan of Distribution was not attached as Annex A to this Stockholders Agreement at the time this Stockholders Agreement was executed and it is not part of the executed agreement.  The Plan of Distribution was subsequently distributed to the stockholders of the Company separate from the Stockholders Agreement and is being include here for informational purposes only.

 

Annex A

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

·                                          ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·                                          block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·                                          purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·                                          an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

·                                          privately negotiated transactions;

 

·                                          short sales;

 

·                                          through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

·                                          broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·                                          a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·                                          any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 



 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the shares offered hereby might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

APPENDIX A

 

DEFINITIONS

 

(1)           Affiliate of a specified person (as defined below), means a person who directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls (as defined below), or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the person specified.

 

(2)           Beneficial , or beneficially , as applied to the ownership of securities, has been defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission to mean the following:

 

A beneficial owner of a security includes any person (as defined below) who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares “voting power” and/or “investment power”.  Voting power includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; investment power includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition, of such security.

 

Note that more than one person may have a beneficial interest in the same securities; one may have voting power and the other may have investment power.

 

Even if a person, directly or indirectly, creates or uses a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement or device with the purpose or effect of divesting such person of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership to avoid the reporting requirements of section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, he will still be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such security.

 

A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within 60 days, including but not limited to any right to acquire:  (i) through the exercise of any option, warrant or right; (ii) through the conversion of a security; (iii) pursuant to the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement; or (iv) pursuant to the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement.

 

A member of a national securities exchange is not deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities held directly or indirectly by it on behalf of another person solely because such member is the record holder of such securities and, pursuant to the rules of such exchange, may direct the vote of such securities, without instruction, on other than contested matters or matters that may affect substantially the rights or privileges of the holders of the securities to be voted, but is otherwise precluded by the rules of such exchange from voting without instruction.

 

A person who in the ordinary course of business is a pledgee of securities pursuant to a bona fide pledge agreement will not be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such pledged securities merely because there has been a default under such an agreement, except during such time as the event of default shall remain uncured for more than 30 days or at any time before a default is cured if the power acquired by the pledgee pursuant to the default enables him to change or influence control of the issuer.

 

A person may also be regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of his spouse, his minor children or other relatives of his or her spouse sharing his home, or held in a trust of which he is a beneficiary or trustee, if the relationships are such that he has voting power and/or investment power with respect to such securities.

 



 

If you have any reason to believe that any interest you have, however remote, might be described as a beneficial interest, describe such interest.

 

(3)           Control means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

 

(4)           Person includes two or more persons acting as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding, or disposing of securities of an issuer.

With respect to any matter that is clearly disclosed in any Section of this Schedule in such a way as to make its relevance to the information called for by another Section of this Schedule readily apparent, such matter shall be deemed to have been included in the Schedule in response to such other Section, notwithstanding the omission of any appropriate cross-reference thereto. The Section numbers referred to in this Schedule correspond to the Section numbers in the Purchase Agreement.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Schedule shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

STOCK OPTIONS

 

At the first meeting of the Company’s Board of Directors following your Start Date, it is my intention that the Company will recommend to the Board of Directors that you receive a common stock option grant of                shares.  This offer is contingent upon approval by the Board of Directors of your option grant specifically.  Promptly after the Grant Date, the Company and you will execute and deliver to each other the Company’s then standard form of stock option agreement, evidencing the Option and the terms thereof.  As you know, the Option shall be subject to, and governed by, the terms and provisions of the Plan and your stock option agreement.

Richard Lyttle.

 

NO CONFLICTING OBLIGATION AND OBLIGATIONS

 

You represent and warrant that the performance by you of any or all of the terms of this letter agreement and the performance by you of your duties as an employee of the Company do not and will not breach or contravene (i) any agreement or contract (including, without limitation, any employment or consulting agreement, any agreement not to compete or any confidentiality or nondisclosure agreement) to which you are or may become a party on or at an time after the Start Date or (ii) any obligation you may otherwise have under applicable law to any former employer or to any person to whom you have provided, provide or will provide consulting services.

Use of Proceeds

 

1.                The Corporation anticipates using the net proceeds from the sale of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock to complete enrollment of the Phase 3 study of the subcutaneous form of the Corporation’s product candidate BA058 (PTHrP analog), complete the Phase 1b study of the transdermal form of BA058, bolster the Corporation’s balance sheet to improve negotiation leverage with  potential partners, and to complete a reverse merger with a publicly reporting Form 10 shell enabling the Corporation to eventually become publicly traded and listed on a national securities exchange such as Nasdaq.  The amounts actually expended by the Corporation for the above purposes may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including future revenue growth, if any, the progress of the Corporation’s research and development efforts and technological advances and hence, the Corporation’s management will retain broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds from the Series A-1 Preferred Stock.

Change Order Form # 7

 

Change order under Agreement dated:   the Development and Clinical Supplies Agreement dated June 19, 2009, as amended by the Amendment dated as of December 31, 2009, the Second Amendment dated as of September 16, 2010, the Third Amendment dated as of September 29, 2010 and the Fourth Amendment dated March 2, 2011 (the “Agreement”).

 

Between:   Radius Health, Inc and 3M

 

Project Name:   For the development of Radius’s BA-058 compound delivered via 3M’s Microstructured Transdermal Delivery System

 

Change requested by:   3M

Name:   Tom Fenn

Company:   3M

Date:   8 June 2011

Description of change:

 

3M is requesting complete an analytical characterization of the impurities observed in the drug product.

 

BACKGROUND

Impurities are forming in the BA058-sMTS drug product.  These impurities elute [*]in the reverse phase HPLC chromatogram.  These impurities form much more quickly in the lots of [*] produced [*] than in the lots of [*] produced in the [*].  The cause for this has not been identified.  To solve this issue, more information about the identity of these impurities is needed.

 

PURPOSE

Identify the BA058-sMTS impurities at a level of detail sufficient to allow action to be taken to block their formation.

 

PROCEDURE

The work described below will be conducted by 3M’s Corporate Analytical Laboratory.  Be aware that this lab does not operate under GxP regulations.  As much as possible, HPLC conditions will match those used in previous impurities investigations conducted by Radius.

functionalities present in the aged sample.  Any differences observed will be analyzed to determine possible chemical reactions responsible for the formation of the impurities.

 

We estimate this work will require [*] hours and 100 mg of BA-058.

 

MADI-TOF

Aged BA-058 drug substance will be fractionated by HPLC.  Accurate mass determinations of the impurities will be attempted by analysis of the mass spectra of BA-058 drug substance, degraded BA-058 drug substance, and the HPLC fractions.  The instrument that will be used is a Bruker Daltonics Ultraflex II MALDI-TOF/TOF.

 

We estimate this work will require [*]  hours and 100  mg of BA-058.

 

LC/MS Accurate mass

Analysis of BA-058 peptide samples (BA-058 drug substance and aged drug substance) will be analyzed on an Agilent 6540 Q-TOF LC-MS/MS equipped with an electrospray ionization interface.  Accurate masses will be determined and peptide sequence information may be obtained by fragmentation.

 

We estimate this work will require [*] hours and 200 mg of BA-058

- AMENDED AND RESTATED PROPOSAL -
RADIUS BA058 sMTS PROGRAM

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

3M Drug Delivery Systems is pleased to provide Radius Health Inc. (Radius) with this estimate for development and delivery of Phase II clinical supplies for its BA058 product delivered via 3M’s solid Microstructured Transdermal System (sMTS).

 

This estimate supports the attached work plan summary and is based on information exchanged between Radius and 3M regarding the requirements for a BA058 sMTS product.  The scope of work outlined in the summary includes all activities required for formulation development and delivery of clinical supplies to enable Radius to perform a Phase II clinical study in humans.  As discussed with Radius, 3M will deliver clinical supplies no later than 14 months after the effective date of this Amendment and will use commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish delivery by March 15, 2012 if Radius approves the Phase II Workplan and initiates work on or before March 1, 2011.  If work does not commence on March l st  2011, 3 months must be added to the time below to provide sufficient ramp up time to obtain and train resources to re-initiate the project.  Effective July 20, 2011, Radius requested 3M manufacture additional Phase I clinical supplies in August 2011.  This will delay delivery of the Phase II clinical supplies four weeks later than previously stated in the Work Plan attached to the Agreement and the Milestone dates set forth below have been revised accordingly.

 

The estimate for the activities listed in the work plan summary is provided below:

WORIC PLAN SUMMARY

 

Objective:

The objective of the work plan is to optimize manufacturing and analytical activities around the production of BA058-sMTS which will be produced using a new automated process.  This work plan will result in the production of BA058-sMTS patches at three different dosage strengths, and a matching placebo patch.  This work plan will also support the application for and completion of a Phase 2 clinical study by Radius.

 

Deliverables:

·               Delivery of up to 3 distinct GMP clinical doses of BA058 sMTS product plus 1 placebo dose for a Phase II clinical study and supporting stability work.  This includes a maximum of 54,600 patches (detail for quantities is shown below.) and 300 POC applicators.  Any additional patches or applicators required to support the clinical trial, stability program and the requirement for clinical retains (as per 3M’s SOP for a non-bioequivalence clinical study) will be provided under a Change Order at Radius request and expense.
