SCHEDULE 13D

 

 

Item 1.Security and Issuer

 

Item 1 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D/A originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 23, 2021 by RA Capital Management, L.P. (“RA Capital”), Dr. Kolchinsky, Mr. Shah and RA Capital Healthcare Fund, L.P. (the “Fund”) with respect to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Solid Biosciences Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement.

 

 

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

The Reporting Persons hold the securities of the Issuer for general investment purposes. The Reporting Persons reserve the right, based on all relevant factors and subject to applicable law or other restrictions, at any time and from time to time, to acquire additional Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer, dispose of some or all of the Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer that it may own from time to time, in each case in open market or private transactions, block sales or otherwise or pursuant to ordinary stock exchange transactions effected through one or more broker-dealers whether individually or utilizing specific pricing or other instructions (including by means of 10b5-1 programs), and review or reconsider their position, change their purpose, take other actions or formulate and implement plans or proposals with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer from time to time on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s stock in particular, as well as other developments.

 

Mr. Rajeev Shah, who is a Managing Partner of RA Capital, is a director of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons, either directly or indirectly through Mr. Shah, may engage in discussions from time to time with the Issuer’s board of directors, the Issuer’s management, the Issuer’s other stockholders or other parties. These discussions may be with respect to (i) acquiring or disposing shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer; (ii) maintaining or changing the Issuer’s business, operations, governance, management, strategy or capitalization; or (iii) implementing transactions that may relate to or may result in any matter set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13, including but not limited to strategic or financial transactions that have been or may be proposed. The Fund has a material interest in a company that is currently having preliminary discussions with the Issuer about a potential transaction and RA Capital may engage with the company on the terms of a potential transaction. RA Capital may also consult with the Issuer in connection with the potential transaction, although Mr. Shah will not take part in any consideration of the potential transaction by the Issuer’s board of directors.
