Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Securities Purchase Agreement
On August 18, 2022, Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain accredited investors (each an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investors in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) (i) an aggregate of 2,769,228 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $26.00 per share, and/or (ii) 3,000,000 pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares” and together with the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Securities”), at a purchase price of $25.9999 per Pre-Funded Warrant. The Pre-Funded Warrants will have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Common Stock, be immediately exercisable and remain exercisable until exercised in full. The holders of Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. The holders of Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease such percentages not in excess of 19.99% by providing at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.
The Private Placement is anticipated to close on August 22, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company anticipates receiving gross proceeds from the Private Placement of approximately $150 million, before deducting offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company expects to use the proceeds from the Private Placement to fund working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the Pre-Funded Warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Purchase Agreement and the form of the Pre-Funded Warrant, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 4.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Registration Rights
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company and the Investors entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated August 18, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), providing for the registration for resale of the Securities (including the shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants) that are not then registered on an effective registration statement, pursuant to a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or prior to September 19, 2022 (the “Filing Date”). The Company has agreed to use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible, but in no event later than 45 days of the closing of the Private Placement (or 60 days in the event of a full review of the Registration Statement by the SEC) (the “Effectiveness Date”), and to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective for a period that extends from the first date on which the SEC issues an order of effectiveness in relation to the Registration Statement until such date that all registrable securities (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covered by the Registration Statement have been sold thereunder or pursuant to Rule 144 or may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144.
