Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On September 10, 2014, Broadfin Master and its affiliates (“Broadfin”) delivered a letter to the Issuer nominating Gregory D. Casciaro, R. Michael Kleine, Kevin Kotler and Samuel E. Navarro (the “Nominees”) for election to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2014 Annual Meeting”).
Also on September 10, 2014, Broadfin delivered a letter to the Board disclosing its nomination of the Nominees for election to the Board at the 2014 Annual Meeting. In the letter, Broadfin expressed its belief that change is urgently needed on the Board in order to enhance shareholder value. Broadfin also disclosed its belief that such change should be brought about through a thoughtful and collaborative process between the current Board and Broadfin, rather than a costly and time consuming proxy contest. A copy of the letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Items 5(a) – (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 88,931,216 Shares outstanding as of May 1, 2014, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 7, 2014.
As of the close of business on September 10, 2014, Broadfin Master beneficially owned 8,874,992 Shares, constituting approximately 9.98% of the Shares outstanding. Each of Broadfin LP and Broadfin Offshore, as feeder funds of Broadfin Master, may be deemed to beneficially own the 8,874,992 Shares owned by Broadfin Master, constituting approximately 9.98% of the Shares outstanding. Broadfin Advisors, as the general partner of Broadfin LP, may be deemed to beneficially own the 8,874,992 Shares owned by Broadfin Master, constituting approximately 9.98% of the Shares outstanding. Broadfin Capital, as the investment manager of Broadfin Master, may be deemed to beneficially own the 8,874,992 Shares owned by Broadfin Master, constituting approximately 9.98% of the Shares outstanding. Mr. Kotler, as the managing member of Broadfin Capital, may be deemed to beneficially own the 8,874,992 Shares owned by Broadfin Master, constituting approximately 9.98% of the Shares outstanding.
12
CUSIP NO. 14141R101
Excluded from Broadfin’s beneficial ownership is 9,875,200 Shares issuable upon the conversion of 98,752 shares of the Issuer’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) due to a conversion cap that precludes the holder thereof from converting the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent that the holder would, after such exercise, beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) in excess of 9.98% of the Shares outstanding (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). Upon written notice to the Issuer, Broadfin may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage specified in such notice, which increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall take effect on the 61st day after delivery to the Issuer. In the event Broadfin delivered written notice to the Issuer increasing the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 19.98% and subsequently fully converted the 98,752 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock into 9,875,200 Shares, Broadfin would beneficially own an aggregate of 18,750,192 Shares, constituting approximately 18.98% of the Shares outstanding.
As of the close of business on September 10, 2014, none of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine, and Navarro directly owned any Shares.
Each Reporting Person, as a member of a “group” with the other Reporting Persons for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may be deemed the beneficial owner of the Shares directly owned by the other Reporting Persons. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein.
(b) By virtue of their respective positions with Broadfin Master, each of Broadfin Capital and Mr. Kotler may be deemed to have sole power to vote and dispose of the Shares reported owned by Broadfin Master.
(c) No Reporting Person has engaged in any transactions in the Shares since the filing of the Schedule 13D.
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:
On September 10, 2014, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing and Solicitation Agreement in which, among other things, the Reporting Persons agreed (a) to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D, and any amendments thereto, with respect to the securities of the Issuer and (b) to solicit proxies for the election of the Nominees at the 2014 Annual Meeting. The Joint Filing and Solicitation Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Pursuant to letter agreements, Broadfin has agreed to indemnify each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine, and Navarro against any and all claims of any nature arising from the solicitation of proxies at the 2014 Annual Meeting and any related transactions. A form of such letter agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and is incorporated by reference herein.
13
CUSIP NO. 14141R101
Broadfin has also signed compensation letter agreements with each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro, pursuant to which Broadfin agrees to pay each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro: (i) $7,500 in cash as a result of the submission by Broadfin of its nomination of each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro to the Issuer and (ii) $17,500 in cash upon the filing of a definitive proxy statement by Broadfin with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the solicitation of proxies in favor of each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro’s election as a director at the 2014 Annual Meeting. Pursuant to the compensation letter agreements, each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro has agreed to use the after-tax proceeds from such compensation to acquire securities of the Issuer (the “Nominee Shares”) at such time that each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro shall determine, but in any event no later than 14 days after receipt of such compensation. If elected or appointed to serve as a director of the Board, each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Nominee Shares within two (2) years of his election or appointment as a director; provided, however, in the event that the Issuer enters into a business combination with a third party, each of Messrs. Casciaro, Kleine and Navarro may sell, transfer or exchange the Nominee Shares in accordance with the terms of such business combination. A form of such compensation letter agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.4 and is incorporated by reference herein.
Mr. Navarro is an investor in certain affiliates of Broadfin Master, but has no voting or dispositive power over any securities held by Broadfin Master or its affiliates.
Other than as described herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
