Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 4”) is being filed with respect to the beneficial ownership of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of CPEX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer” or the “Company”). This Amendment No. 4 supplements Items 4 and 7 of the Schedule 13D (as amended) originally filed on January 31, 2011.
| ITEM 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
On March 16, 2011, Mangrove Partners delivered a letter to the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) setting forth revised indicative terms of a fully-financed dividend recapitalization of the Issuer to be implemented through a backstopped rights issue (“Revised Recapitalization Letter”). The Revised Recapitalization Letter updated the Board with respect to the identity and number of the backstop participants in the proposed dividend recapitalization and supersedes the letter previously sent by Mangrove Partners to the Board on March 14, 2011 (and attached as Exhibit 99.1 to Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2011). A copy of the Revised Recapitalization Letter from Mangrove Partners is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The description herein of the Revised Recapitalization Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Revised Recapitalization Letter.
All of the shares of Common Stock reported herein as being beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons were acquired for investment purposes. Except as set forth herein or as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed herein, including in any Exhibits hereto, the Reporting Persons have no present plan or proposal that would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons intend to review its investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and strategic direction, the outcome of the discussions and actions referenced above, actions taken by the Board, price levels of the Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to its investment in the Issuer as it deems appropriate including, without limitation, purchasing additional shares of Common Stock or selling some or all of its Common Stock, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Common Stock and/or otherwise changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred in Item 4 of Schedule 13D; provided that the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim any intention of engaging in a control transaction or a contested election of directors of the Issuer’s Board.
