Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Chiesi Investment in the Issuer and Initial Purchase from CBPHLtd – May 6, 2009
On May 6, 2009, the Issuer and Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A. (“Chiesi”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement, to issue and sell 11,902,741 shares of the Issuer’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), to Chiesi (the “Issuer Stock Sale”). The Stock Purchase Agreement provided that, in exchange for the shares to be issued to Chiesi, Chiesi would (i) grant the Issuer an exclusive ten-year license to distribute and market Chiesi’s Curosurf® product in the United States and (ii) pay the Issuer $15,465,075 in cash. The Stock Purchase Agreement also contemplated that the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws be amended to incorporate certain corporate governance provisions consistent with the terms of the Governance Agreement described below.
Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Chiesi and two stockholders of the Issuer, including CBPHLtd, entered into a separate stock purchase agreement (the “Stockholders Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the two stockholders agreed, among other things, to sell to Chiesi 1.6 million shares of Common Stock owned by such stockholders, with CBPHLtd selling 1,250,000 at $5.50 per for aggregate proceeds of $6,875,000 (the “Initial Stock Sale”). Following the closing of the Initial Stock Sale and the closing of the Issuer Stock Sale on July 28, 2009, Chiesi owned approximately 51% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement).
In connection with and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer, Chiesi and, solely with respect to certain sections identified therein, certain stockholders of the Issuer, including CBPHLtd and Mr. Collard, entered into a Governance Agreement (the “Governance Agreement”), which set forth certain rights and obligations of the Issuer, Chiesi and such stockholders concerning, among other things, certain corporate governance matters, the voting of Chiesi’s shares of Common Stock, certain limitations on future acquisitions and dispositions of shares of Common Stock by Chiesi and certain rights of first offer to distribute and market the other party’s products. The Governance Agreement became effective upon the closing of the Issuer Stock Sale.
In connection with and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer, Chiesi and certain stockholders of the Issuer, including CBPHLtd and Mr. Collard, entered into a Stockholders Agreement, as amended (the “Stockholders Agreement”) pursuant to which the stockholders agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer a number of shares equal to approximately 80% of the shares of Common Stock held by them as of May 6, 2009 (the “Covered Shares”), subject to certain exceptions described in the Stockholders Agreement. In addition, the stockholders agreed they would not, directly or indirectly, acquire or offer to acquire any shares of Common Stock, subject to certain exceptions described in the Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement also provided that beginning on the date on which the restrictions on transfers by the stockholders of the Covered Shares lapsed and for a 30 day period thereafter, Chiesi had the option, exercisable in whole but not in part on a single occasion, to acquire all the stockholders’ Covered Shares, at a price per share of $12.00 (subject to adjustment for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar adjustment). Each stockholder also agreed, subject to certain conditions, that at any meeting of the stockholders of the Issuer called to consider a transaction in which Chiesi or its affiliate would acquire all the outstanding capital stock of the Issuer, the stockholder would vote all shares of Common Stock owned by such stockholder at the applicable record date set for such meeting in the same proportions that the shares of Common Stock owned by the other stockholders of the Issuer (other than Chiesi and its affiliates) were voted on such matter. The Stockholders Agreement became effective upon the closing of the Issuer Stock Sale.
In connection with and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer and Chiesi entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Chiesi Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to provide registration rights to Chiesi with respect to the shares of Common Stock to be acquired in the Issuer Stock Sale. Under such agreement, following the Blackout Period, Chiesi was entitled to require the Issuer to file with the SEC certain registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (each a “Demand Registration”) with respect to the resale of the shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Initial Stock Purchase Agreement and the Stock Purchase Agreement up to four times, and to include its shares of Common Stock in any registration the Issuer proposed for its own account or for the account of one or more of its stockholders.
In connection with and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer and the stockholders of the Issuer who entered into the Stockholders Agreement also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Stockholders Registration Rights Agreement”) substantially similar to the Chiesi Registration Rights Agreement. Under such agreement, such stockholders were entitled to two Demand Registrations during the Blackout Period and three Demand Registrations thereafter. The stockholders also had the right to include their shares of Common Stock in any registration the Issuer proposed for its own account or for the account of one or more of its stockholders.
In connection with and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer and Chiesi entered into a Voting Agreement (the “Chiesi Voting Agreement”), pursuant to which Chiesi agreed to vote all of its shares of Common Stock in favor of the approval and adoption of the proposed amendment to the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation.
In connection with and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Issuer also, on May 6, 2009, entered into a voting agreement with Chiesi and certain stockholders of the Issuer named therein, including CBPHLtd and Mr. Collard (the “Stockholders Voting Agreement”), solely with respect to Section 2(b) thereof, which provided that the Issuer would not, and was unconditionally instructed not to, permit on its books and records transfers by, issue new certificates to or record any vote of such stockholders, unless such stockholder had complied with the terms of the Stockholders Voting Agreement. Pursuant to the Stockholders Voting Agreement, the stockholders named therein granted to Chiesi irrevocable proxies over the shares of Common Stock owned by them and agreed to vote the shares of Common Stock owned by them in favor of the Issuer Stock Sale and approval and adoption of the proposed amendment to the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation, subject to the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Voting Agreement.
On July 28, 2011, the Governance Agreement terminated pursuant to its terms; however, certain of the other agreements discussed above continue to have ongoing obligations.
Chiesi Additional Purchase of Shares from CBPHLtd – December 16, 2010
Pursuant to the Governance Agreement while it was in effect, Chiesi was permitted to make additional purchases of the Issuer’s common stock to the extent necessary to maintain its beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s common stock at 51% on a Fully Diluted Basis (as defined in the Governance Agreement). As a result of the issuance of additional equity awards under the 2004 Plan (as defined below) following the closing of the Initial Stock Sale, Chiesi’s beneficial ownership on a Fully Diluted Basis had dropped below 51%. Accordingly, Chiesi approached CBPHLtd and another stockholder regarding their willingness to sell additional shares to Chiesi in a private transaction. The parties agreed that a private sale was in the best interests of the parties, the Issuer and the Issuer’s other stockholders in that it would avoid potential short-term market distortions that could have occurred had Chiesi sought to purchase the shares in the open market.
Accordingly, on December 16, 2010, CBPHLtd and the other stockholder sold an additional 385,000 and 65,000 shares, respectively, of the Issuer’s common stock to Chiesi pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated December 16, 2010 (the “December 16, 2010 Stock Purchase Agreement”) at a price of $6.02 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $2.7 million. The agreed-upon sales price was determined based on the average closing price of the Issuer’s common stock during the twenty trading days prior to the date of the sale.
Chiesi Merger Agreement – September 15, 2013
On September 15, 2013, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Chiesi and Chiesi U.S. Corporation (“Chiesi US”), a Delaware corporation that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Chiesi, whereby Chiesi US would merge with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer surviving the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Chiesi (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each share of the Issuer’s common stock that is issued and outstanding as of the effective time of the Merger, except for treasury stock, dissenting shares and shares held by Chiesi or its subsidiaries, will be converted into the right to receive $9.50 in cash, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding taxes.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, on September 15, 2013, CBPHLtd and Mr. Collard entered into a voting agreement with the Company, Chiesi and Chiesi US (the “Merger Voting Agreement”) under which they have agreed to vote their shares of the Company’s common stock in favor of the Merger.
