On February 12, 2015, Prosensa Holding N.V. in liquidatie1 (“Prosensa”) closed its asset sale agreement with BioMarin Falcons B.V. (“BioMarin Falcons”), pursuant to which BioMarin Falcons acquired all of Prosensa’s assets and assumed all of Prosensa’s liabilities (the “Asset Sale”). In conjunction with the Asset Sale, Prosensa made an advance liquidation distribution to its remaining shareholders with each remaining shareholder receiving a cash payment equal to $17.75 per share as well as one contingent value right to receive cash payments of up to $4.14 per share in the aggregate upon the achievement of certain product approval milestones, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding taxes. If a shareholder holds its shares through the Depositary Trust Company, the shareholder will receive its advance liquidation distribution through the Depositary Trust Company. Following the Asset Sale and advance liquidation distribution, Prosensa is not expected to have any assets, no further distributions are expected to be made and the Shares are expected to have little to no value.
1 | Under Dutch law, Prosensa Holding N.V. is now required to be referred to as “Prosensa Holding N.V. in liquidatie” because the company has been dissolved and is in liquidation, effective as of February 12, 2015. |
