The filing was made in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Case No. 15-12628 (LSS)). In addition, as previously disclosed, on June 16, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the Company’s Second Amended Plan of Reorganization, dated May 9, 2016 (as amended, the “Plan”). A copy of the Confirmation Order, with the Plan and certain Plan modifications annexed thereto, was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 22, 2016.

 

On June 30, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Plan became effective and the Company emerged from its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. In connection with such emergence, the Company consummated the transactions and other items described below. All capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined in this Current Report on Form 8-K have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

 

Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Savant Transaction

 

On the Effective Date, as authorized by the Plan and the Confirmation Order, the Company and Savant Neglected Diseases, LLC (“Savant”) entered into an Agreement for the Manufacture, Development and Commercialization of Benznidazole for Human Use (the “MDC Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company has acquired certain worldwide rights relating to benznidazole (the “Compound”). The MDC Agreement consummates the transactions contemplated by the binding letter of intent (“LOI”), entered into by the Company and Savant on February 29, 2016, as previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 4, 2016 (the “Savant Transaction”).

 

Under the terms of the MDC Agreement, the Company has acquired certain regulatory and non-intellectual property assets relating to the Compound and any product containing the Compound (the “Product”) and an exclusive license of certain intellectual property assets related to the Product. Savant will retain the right to use the licensed intellectual property for veterinary uses. The MDC Agreement provides that the Company and Savant will jointly conduct research and development activities with respect to the Product, while the Company will be solely responsible for commercializing the Product. The Company will fund the development program for the Product and will reimburse Savant for its development program costs. 

 

As required by the MDC Agreement, on the Effective Date, the Company made payments to Savant totaling $2,687,500, consisting of the remaining portion of the Initial Payment less Deposit in the amount of $2,500,000, an initial monthly Joint Development Program Cost payment of $87,500, and reimbursement of Savant’s legal fees capped at $100,000. The MDC Agreement provides for regulatory and other milestone payments of up to $21 million and certain other contingent payments.  Additionally, the Company will pay Savant royalties on any net sales of the Product, which royalty would increase if a priority review voucher is granted subsequent to regulatory approval of the Product.  The MDC Agreement also provides that Savant is entitled to a portion of the amount the Company receives upon the sale, if any, of a priority review voucher regarding the Product.

 

The MDC Agreement also contains customary provisions for termination by either party in the event of a breach by the other party, subject to a cure period, or bankruptcy of the other party. The Company and Savant may also terminate the MDC Agreement upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the other party, though certain rights and obligations would survive that termination. Additionally, Savant may terminate the MDC Agreement immediately if Martin Shkreli is appointed as an agent, employee, consultant, officer or director of the Company. 

 

In addition, on the Effective Date the Company and Savant also entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company granted Savant a continuing senior security interest in the assets and rights acquired by the Company pursuant to the MDC Agreement and certain future assets developed from those acquired assets.

 

 

 

 

On the Effective Date the Company also issued to Savant a five year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $2.25 per share, subject to adjustment. The Warrant is exercisable for 25% of the shares immediately and exercisable for the remaining shares upon reaching certain milestones related to regulatory approval of the Product. In addition, pursuant to the MDC Agreement, the Company has granted Savant certain “piggyback” registration rights for the shares issuable under the Warrant.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement

 

As previously disclosed, on April 1, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Black Horse Capital Master Fund Ltd. (“BHCMF”), Black Horse Capital LP (“BHC”), Cheval Holdings, Ltd. (“Cheval”) and Nomis Bay LTD (“Nomis” and, together with BHCMF, BHC and Cheval, the “Original Purchasers”), which provides for exit financing to the Company under the terms set forth therein (the “SPA Transaction”). Nomis subsequently assigned twenty percent (20%) of its interest in the shares of Common Stock to be distributed to Nomis under the SPA to Cortleigh Limited (“Cortleigh” and, collectively with the Original Purchasers, the “Purchasers”). A copy of the SPA was filed as Exhibit 10.7 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 7, 2016. On the Effective Date, the SPA Transaction was consummated in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the SPA. As a result, the Company issued to the Purchasers an aggregate of 7,147,035 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $11,000,000. Pursuant to the SPA, the Company has agreed to file and seek to have declared effective a registration statement registering the resale of the shares acquired by the Purchasers pursuant to the SPA.

 

Governance Agreement

 

On the Effective Date, the Company and Martin Shkreli entered into a Corporate Governance Agreement (the “Governance Agreement”), which provides for certain terms and conditions regarding the acquisition, disposition, holding and voting of securities of the Company by Mr. Shkreli. The Governance Agreement applies to all Common Stock owned by Mr. Shkreli or affiliates he controls.

 

Under the terms of the Governance Agreement, for 180 days following the Effective Date, Mr. Shkreli may not sell his shares at a price per share that is less than the greater of (x) $2.50 and (y) a 10% discount to the prior two week volume-weighted average price (the “Market Discount Price”). In addition, for 180 days following the 61st day after the Effective Date, the Company will have a right to purchase any or all of Mr. Shkreli’s shares at a purchase price per share equal to the Market Discount Price. For a limited time, the Company will also have a right of first refusal to purchase shares that Mr. Shkreli proposes to sell. Mr. Shkreli is also prohibited from transferring any shares to his affiliates or associates unless such transferee agrees to be subject to the terms of the Governance Agreement. Transfers of shares by Mr. Shkreli not made in compliance with the Governance Agreement will be null and void.

 

Under the terms of the Governance Agreement, Mr. Shkreli will not have any right to nominate directors to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) and agrees in connection with any shareholder vote to vote his shares in proportion to the votes of the Company’s public stockholders. The Governance Agreement also prohibits Mr. Shkreli or his affiliates for a period of 24 months after the date of the Governance Agreement, from, among other things:

 

· Purchasing any stock or assets of the Company;
· Participating in any proposal for any merger, tender offer or other business combination, or similar extraordinary transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;
· Seeking to control or influence the management, the Company’s Board or the policies of the Company; or
· Submitting any proposal to be considered by the stockholders of the Company.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, any material transaction between Mr. Shkreli or his associates and the Company, or relating to the Governance Agreement, cannot be taken without the prior approval of the Company’s Board.

 

The Governance Agreement provides for a mutual release between the Company and Mr. Shkreli of all claims and liabilities existing as of the date of execution.

 

The foregoing description of the Governance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Governance Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

For avoidance of doubt, but again subject to the Stockholder’s obligations under Section 5 , if any Shares are held in the E*Trade Account, then no provision of this Agreement is in any way intended to violate, conflict with, or otherwise infringe upon the terms of the Restraining Order.

4.1              Scope of Provision . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 4 (with the exception of Section 4.5 ) are subject to the Stockholder’s obligations to participate in Sale Transactions in accordance with Section 9 .

4.3               Initial Period Rights .

 

(a)                 Company Repurchase Right . Subject to the terms of this Section 4.3(a) , the Stockholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a Repurchase Right to purchase any or all of the Shares for a period of 120 days following the Effective Date (the “ Initial Period ”) at a purchase price per Share equal to the greater of (a) $2.50 (the “ Minimum Purchase Price ”) and (b) a 10% discount to the VWAP per Share during the fourteen (14) day period immediately prior to the date of the Call Notice (as defined below) (the “ Market Discount Price ”) (any such purchase, a “ Repurchase ”). The Company (or its permitted transferee or assign exercising the Repurchase Right) shall provide written notice to the Stockholder of its intent to exercise the Repurchase Right (such notice, the “ Call Notice ”). The Call Notice shall specify the number of Shares to be Repurchased, the purchase price thereof, if applicable, the calculation of the VWAP per Share for the fourteen (14) day period immediately prior to the date of the Call Notice. The closing of the Repurchase shall take place, and all payments from the Company (or its permitted transferee or assign) shall have been delivered to the Stockholder, on the fourteenth (14 th ) day following the date of delivery (determined in accordance with Section 13.1 hereof) of the Call Notice (such date of delivery of the Call Notice, the “ Call Notice Delivery Date ” and the period between the Call Notice Delivery Date and the closing, the “ Funding Period ”), unless the Company (or its permitted transferee or assign) and the Stockholder agree to an earlier closing date. At or before the closing, the Stockholder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company (or its permitted transferee or assign) a stock certificate or certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, representing the Shares being Repurchased (or, in the case of any Shares that are not represented by certificates, such documentation as is necessary to effect such transfer).

 

(b)                Permitted Sales . Subject to the terms of this Section 4.3(b) and Section 4.3(c) , during the Initial Period the Stockholder may sell from time to time any or all of his Shares (subject to compliance by the Stockholder with applicable securities laws) to any Person other than an Affiliate or Associate of the Stockholder at a price per Share that is equal to or greater than the Market Discount Price (any such sale, a “ Permitted Sale ”); provided , however , that (a) no Permitted Sale may occur during a Funding Period and (b) the Stockholder shall provide written notice to the Company of his intent to effect a Permitted Sale (a “ Sale Notice ”) not less than thirty days prior to the consummation of such Permitted Sale (it being understood and agreed that the Permitted Sale may close prior to the end of such thirty day period if the Company does not timely exercise its Right of First Refusal pursuant to Section 4.3(c) ). The Sale Notice shall specify the material terms and conditions (including price and form of consideration) of the proposed Permitted Sale, the identity of the purchaser or purchasers in the proposed Permitted Sale (the “ Proposed Purchaser ”), and the intended date of consummation of the proposed Permitted Sale.

 

(c)                 Company Right of First Refusal . The Stockholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a Right of First Refusal to purchase any and all Shares the Stockholder proposes to sell in a Permitted Sale during the Initial Period (any such purchase, a “ ROFR Purchase ”). To exercise its Right of First Refusal, the Company (or its permitted transferee or assign) must deliver an irrevocable written notice to the Stockholder within ten days (including Saturdays and Sundays, but excluding days on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close) after the date of delivery of the Sale Notice (determined in accordance with Section 13.1 hereof) (such date of delivery of the Sale Notice, the “ Sale Notice Delivery Date ”). The closing of the Permitted Sale or ROFR Purchase, as applicable, shall take place, and all payments from the Proposed Purchaser or the Company (or its permitted transferee or assign), as applicable, shall have been delivered to the Stockholder, by the later of (a) the date specified in the Sale Notice and (b) fifteen (15) business days after the Sale Notice Delivery Date, and any proposed Permitted Sale for which the Company did not exercise its Right of First Refusal and that is not consummated by such date shall require a new Sale Notice and again be subject to the Company’s Right of First Refusal in accordance with this Section 4.3(c) . At or before the closing of a ROFR Purchase, the Stockholder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company (or its permitted transferee or assign) a stock certificate or certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, representing the Shares being purchased (or, in the case of any Shares that are not represented by certificates, such documentation as is necessary to effect such transfer).

 

 

  - 4 -  

 

 

 

4.4               Second Period Rights . The Stockholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a Repurchase Right to purchase any or all of the Shares for a period of sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Initial Period (the “ Second Period ”) and otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Repurchase Right in effect during the Initial Period granted pursuant to Section 4.3(a) . During the Second Period, the Stockholder may sell from time to time any or all of his Shares (subject to compliance by the Stockholder with applicable securities laws), provided however, that if the Company provides the Shareholder with a Call Notice before Shareholder notifies the Company of his intent to sell Shares, the Shareholder shall not dispose of any Shares subject to the Call Notice between delivery of the Call Notice and expiration of the Funding Period.

 

4.5               Shares Transferred to Affiliates or Associates . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

 

(a)                 the Stockholder hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date of this Agreement, (i) all of the Shares are owned Beneficially and of record only by the Stockholder, (ii) no Controlled Affiliate owns Beneficially or of record any capital stock of the Company, and (iii) to the best of the Stockholder’s knowledge after reasonable inquiry, no other Affiliate or Associate of the Stockholder owns Beneficially or of record any capital stock of the Company; and

 

(b)                the Stockholder shall not transfer any Shares to any of his Affiliates or Associates unless, in addition to complying with any other applicable provision of this Agreement and with applicable securities laws, as a condition precedent to the Company’s recognizing such transfer, each such transferee (an “ Affiliated Transferee ”) shall agree in writing to be subject to each of the terms of this Agreement as an additional Stockholder party by executing and delivering an Adoption Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A . Upon the execution and delivery of an Adoption Agreement by an Affiliated Transferee, such Affiliated Transferee shall be deemed to be a Stockholder for all purposes under this Agreement.

 

 

  - 5 -  

 

 

 

4.6               Effect of Failure to Comply . Any transfer of Shares not made in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement shall be null and void, shall not be recorded on the books of the Company or its transfer agent and shall not be recognized by the Company. The Stockholder agrees that, to ensure compliance with the transfer restrictions referred to in this Agreement, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. If the Stockholder becomes obligated to sell any Shares to the Company or any of its permitted transferees or assigns under this Agreement and fails to deliver such Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company or such permitted transferee or assign may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, send to the Stockholder the purchase price for such Shares as is herein specified and transfer to the name of the Company or such permitted transferee or assign (or request that the Company effect such transfer in the name of such permitted transferee or assign) on the Company’s books the certificate or certificates representing the Shares to be sold (or, in the case of any Shares that are not represented by certificates, make such other notations on the Company’s books as shall be necessary to effect such transfer). The Stockholder and the Company acknowledge and agree that any breach of this Agreement would result in substantial harm to the Company and/or the Stockholder for which monetary damages alone could not adequately compensate. Therefore, the Stockholder and the Company unconditionally and irrevocably agree that the Company and the Stockholder shall be entitled to seek protective orders, injunctive relief and other remedies available at law or in equity (including, without limitation, seeking specific performance or the rescission of purchases, sales and other transfers of Sales not made in strict compliance with this Agreement).

 

4.7               Legends . The Stockholder and the Company shall take all necessary action such that each stock certificate evidencing Shares shall bear a legend indicating that such Shares are subject to the terms of this Agreement. If any Shares are not represented by certificates, the foregoing legend shall instead be included on any book-entry confirmation or notification to the registered holder of such Shares.

 

Section 5.        Approvals . At any time and from time to time that the Company determines it to be advisable, the Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of any and all requisite governmental authorities and E*Trade Securities LLC, and the Stockholder shall cooperate with the Company in seeking any such consent, in connection with the parties’ entering into and performing their respective obligations under this Agreement.

 

Section 6. Quorum & Voting Restrictions .

 

6.1               Quorum . At every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action by consent in lieu of such a meeting, the Stockholder shall take all necessary action to cause the Shares to be present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum.

 

6.2               Proportionate Vote Requirement . With respect to each matter submitted for the approval of stockholders of the Company and each nominee submitted for election as a director of the Company (whether at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company or pursuant to an action by consent in lieu of such a meeting), the Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) each Share in a manner that is proportionate to the manner in which all shares of capital stock of the Company (other than the Shares) are voted with respect to such matters and nominees, such that, for any matter or nominee, the Shares shall reflect voting results with respect to “shares voted for,” “shares voted against,” “shares abstained” and “shares withheld” proportionate to such aggregate voting results for shares of capital stock of the Company that are not owned Beneficially or of record by the Stockholder and that are voted at the meeting (in person or by proxy) or by written consent on the matter or nominee (the “ Proportionate Vote Requirement ”). For avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that broker non-votes and shares not present at a meeting are not shares “voted” “on the matter or nominee” within the meaning of the foregoing sentence, and voting results with respect to “broker non-votes” and “shares not present at the meeting” shall be disregarded in determining the Stockholder’s voting obligations pursuant to the Proportionate Vote Requirement in respect of any matter or nominee described above.

 

 

  - 6 -  

 

 

 

6.3               Record Owners . To the extent the Stockholder is not the record owner of any Shares, the Stockholder shall use his best efforts to cause the record owner and any nominees of the record owner of such Shares to comply with all of the provisions of this Agreement in respect of such Shares.

 

6.4               Proxy . The Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints as his proxy and attorney-in-fact the present and future officers of the Company, and each of them, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, from the date hereof until the termination of this Agreement, to vote the Shares in accordance with the Proportionate Vote Requirement and to sign or execute on behalf of the Stockholder any ballot, proxy, consent, certificate or other document relating to the Company that the law permits or requires in a manner consistent with the Proportionate Vote Requirement. This proxy is coupled with an interest and is intended to secure the voting agreements provided for in this Agreement and shall be irrevocable, and the Stockholder will take such commercially reasonable further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by him with respect to the Shares.

 

Section 7.       Board Composition . The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) the Stockholder will not have any right to nominate directors for election to the Board, whether in accordance with any advance notice provisions in the Company’s bylaws or otherwise, and (b) in connection with all director elections and any proposals for the removal of directors, the Stockholder will vote and cause to be voted the Shares in accordance with the Proportionate Vote Requirement.

 

Section 8.       Standstill . The Stockholder agrees that, for a period of twenty-four (24) months from and after the date of this Agreement, neither he nor any of his Controlled Affiliates will, and he and his Controlled Affiliates will not cause or encourage any other Person to, without the prior written approval of the Board, in any manner, directly or indirectly:

(d)                form or join in or in any way participate in any “group” (as defined in the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder) with respect to any securities of the Company;

 

(e)                 make any public announcement with respect to, or submit an unsolicited proposal for or offer of (with or without condition), any transaction involving the Company;

(g)                submit any proposal to be considered by the stockholders of the Company, including pursuant to any advance notice provisions in the Company’s bylaws;

 

(h)                take any action that might force the Company to make a public announcement regarding any of the types of matters set forth in the preceding clauses (a)–(g); or

Any acquisition or purchase of securities of the Company not made in compliance with the requirements of this Section 8 shall be null and void, and the Stockholder agrees to transfer all such securities to the Company for the aggregate nominal amount of $1.00 for all such securities.

 

Section 9.        Sale Transactions . Subject to the terms of the Restraining Order, if the Board determines that a self-tender or exchange offer or similar transaction (a “ Sale Transaction ”) is in the best interests of the public stockholders of the Company, the Stockholder agrees (a) to sell (or to cause the record holder of any Shares to sell) all of the Shares pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of such Sale Transaction so long as the terms of such Sale Transaction comply with price terms set forth in Section 4.3(a) and (b) to execute and deliver (or to cause the record holder of any Shares to execute and deliver) all related documentation and to take (or cause the record holder of any Shares to take) such other action in his (or such record holder’s) capacity as a stockholder of the Company as shall reasonably be necessary to carry out the terms and provisions of this Section 9 , including without limitation executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer, consents, waivers, governmental filings, stock certificates duly endorsed for transfer and any similar or related documents.
