At closings on May 13, 2019 and August 28, 2020, SVP X purchased an aggregate 13,571,428 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock (the “Series A Shares”) from the Issuer at a purchase price of $1.4000 per share, or $18,999,999.20 in the aggregate.

 

At a closing on September 22, 2021, SVP X purchased an aggregate 4,275,000 shares of Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock (the “Series B Shares”) from the Issuer at a purchase price of $4.0000 per share, or $17,100,000.00 in the aggregate.

 

 

CUSIP NO. 17240Y109

13D

Page 8 of 14

 

In connection with the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering of Common Stock (the “IPO Offering”), each Series A Share and Series B Share automatically converted into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of the IPO Offering for no additional consideration, on a 3.4:1 basis, and had no expiration date.

 

On December 10, 2021, Healy was granted a stock option by the Issuer to purchase 29,411 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $13.60 per share (such numbers reflect the Issuer’s 3.4-for-1 reverse stock split of Common Stock effected prior to the IPO Offering). The option vests in equal annual installments over a three-year period measured from one year following December 10, 2021, subject to the continued service by Healy to the Issuer as of the applicable vesting date. Such option will expire on December 9, 2031. On August 5, 2022, Healy early exercised his stock option by purchasing 29,411 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $13.60 per share (such numbers reflect the Issuer’s 3.4-for-1 reverse stock split of Common Stock effected prior to the IPO Offering).

 

In connection with the IPO Offering, SVP X purchased 325,000 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer at a purchase price of $16.00 per share, or $5,200,000.00 in the aggregate. Such purchase occurred pursuant to and on the terms set forth in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on January 7, 2022 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “IPO Prospectus”).

 

In August 2022, the Issuer held a public offering (the “Follow-On Offering”) of Common Stock. On August 11, 2022, in connection with the Follow-On Offering, SVP X purchased 500,000 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer at $30.00 per share, or $15,000,000 in the aggregate. Such purchase occurred pursuant to and on the terms set forth in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on August 12, 2022 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Follow-On Prospectus”).

 

On January 8, 2023, AstraZeneca Finance and Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Cinnamon Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”) and the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Parent, through Purchaser, will commence an offer (the “Offer”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock at a price of $26.00 per share in cash (the “Closing Amount”), plus one contingent value right representing the right per share representing the right to receive a contingent payment of $10.00 per share in cash upon the achievement of a specified milestone (collectively with the Cash Amount, the “Offer Price”).

 

In connection with the Offer, SVP X, Healy and certain other holders of shares of Common Stock have entered into Tender and Support Agreements with Parent and Purchaser (the “Support Agreement”). Under the terms of the Support Agreement, SVP X and Healy have each agreed, among other things, to tender their Common Stock in the Offer, vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of the merger at a special meeting, if there is one, and, subject to certain exceptions, not to transfer any of their shares of Common Stock. SVP X’s and Healy’s obligations under the Support Agreement terminate upon termination of the Merger Agreement and certain other specified events. Such Merger Agreement and Support Agreement are each more fully described in the Form 8-K filed on January 9, 2023 (File No. 001-41201) (the “Form 8-K”). The Merger Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Form 8-K, and the Support Agreement was filed as Exhibit B to Exhibit 2.1 to the Form 8-K. Each of the Merger Agreement Support Agreement, and the descriptions thereof, are incorporated herein by reference.

 

On February 24, 2023, in connection with the Offer, Healy tendered 9,803 shares of Common Stock to Purchaser for the Offer Price.

 

On February 24, 2023, in connection with the merger of the Issuer and Purchaser, and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Healy acquired 19,608 shares of Common Stock subject to a right of repurchase pursuant to an early-exercise option which was accelerated and became fully vested, and cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive, without interest, the Offer Price.

 

On February 24, 2023, in connection with the Offer, SVP X tendered 6,073,949 shares of Common Stock to Purchaser for the Offer Price.

Unless noted above, the source of the funds for all purchases and acquisitions by the Reporting Persons was from working capital. Certain purchases by SVP X were made using its working capital funded partially through a line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank in the normal course of business and then paid down from the proceeds from investor capital calls.

 

Unless noted above, no part of the purchase price was borrowed by any Reporting Person for the purpose of acquiring any securities discussed in this Item 3.

 

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

The Reporting Persons hold their securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. Depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, acquire additional Common Stock and/or retain and/or sell all or a portion of the Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons in the open market or in privately negotiated 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 Rule 10b5-1 programs), and/or may distribute the Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons to their respective members or limited partners. Any actions the Reporting Persons might undertake will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons’ review of numerous factors, including, among other things, the price levels of the Common Stock, general market and economic conditions, ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s business, financial condition, operations and prospects; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities, and other future developments.

 

Except as set forth above or in Item 3, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or intentions which would result in or relate to any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

(c)       Except as set forth in Item 3 above, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transaction in the securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.

 

(d)       Under certain circumstances set forth in the limited partnership agreement of SVP X, the general partner and limited partners of SVP X may be deemed to have the right to receive dividends from, or the proceeds from, the sale of shares of the Issuer owned by such entity of which they are a partner.

CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
