Schedule 13D
| Item 1. | Security and Issuer. |
This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed on August 5, 2014 (the “Original 13D”), as amended by Amendment No.1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Original 13D filed on September 23, 2019, relating to the Common Stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of VBI Vaccines, Inc. (the “Issuer”) having its principal executive office at 222 Third Street, Suite 2241, Cambridge, MA, 02142.
Certain terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 have the meanings assigned thereto in the Original 13D, including Amendment No. 1 thereto, as applicable. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Original 13D and Amendment No. 1 thereto.
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 5 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
| (a) | ARCH Venture Fund VI is the record owner of 3,026,057 shares of Common Stock (the “ARCH VI Shares”) and AVF OVERAGE is the record owner of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock (“AVF OVERAGE Shares” and combined with ARCH VI Shares, the “Record Shares”). |
AVP VI LP, as the sole general partner of ARCH Venture Fund VI, may be deemed to beneficially own the ARCH VI Shares. AVP VI LLC, as the sole general partner of the AVP VI LP, may be deemed to beneficially own the ARCH VI Shares.
OVERAGE GPLP, as the sole general partner of AVF OVERAGE, may be deemed to beneficially own the AVF OVERAGE Shares. OVERAGE GPLLC, as the sole general partner of the OVERAGE GPLP, may be deemed to beneficially own the AVF OVERAGE Shares.
By virtue of their relationship as affiliated entities, whose Control Entities have overlapping individual controlling persons, each of AVP VI LP and AVF OVERAGE may be deemed to share the power to direct the disposition and vote of the Record Shares.
In addition, each of Bybee, Crandell and Nelsen may be deemed to share the power to direct the disposition and vote of the ARCH VI Shares. Each of Crandell, Nelsen, Burow and Gillis be deemed to share the power to direct the disposition and vote of the AVF OVERAGE Shares.
Gillis is the record owner of 84,416 shares of Common Stock (the “Gillis Common Shares”). In addition, Gillis holds 858,027 options to exercise shares of Common Stock, of which 334,382 are vested as of April 30, 2020, and 42,292 will vest within 60 days of April 30, 2020 (the “Vested Option Shares” and together with the Gillis Common Shares, the “Gillis Shares”). Gillis is deemed to own beneficially the AVF Overage Shares and the Gillis Shares.
Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of all securities except for the shares, if any, held of record by such Reporting Person.
CUSIP No. 91822J103 | 13D | Page 14 of 21 Pages |
The percentage of outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is set forth on Line 13 of such Reporting Person’s cover sheet. Such percentage was calculated based on the 230,529,925 shares of Common Stock, including the additional shares sold by the underwriter options, as reported by the Issuer to be outstanding after the closing of the Issuer’s public offering on April 27, 2020 on the Issuer’s prospectus filed under Rule 424(b)(5) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 24, 2020. For Gillis, the Vested Option Shares were included in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for purposes of calculating the percentage deemed to be beneficially owned by Gillis as set forth on Line 13 of Gillis’ cover sheet.
| (b) | Regarding the number of shares as to which such person has: |
| (i) | sole power to vote or to direct the vote: See line 7 of cover sheets. |
| (ii) | shared power to vote or to direct the vote: See line 8 of cover sheets. |
| (iii) | sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition: See line 9 of cover sheets. |
| (iv) | shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition: See line 10 of cover sheets. |
| (c) | Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction in the Common Stock during the last 60 days. |
| (d) | No other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or any proceeds from the sale of, shares beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons. |
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Undertakings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
ARCH Venture Fund VI and AVF OVERAGE have entered into a lock-up agreement pursuant to which they have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to directly or indirectly, for a period of 90 days through and including the date of the underwriting agreement, (a) sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell (including any short sale), pledge, transfer, establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise dispose of, any common shares, options, or warrants to acquire common shares, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into common shares currently or hereafter owned either of record or beneficially, (b) enter into any swap, hedge, or other agreement or transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequence of ownership of common shares, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into common shares, or (c) publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing for a period of 90 days after April 22, 2020 without the prior written consent of the representatives.
