AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO SCHEDULE 13D

The following constitutes Amendment No. 6 (Amendment No. 6) to the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) by A.T. Holdings II Sàrl (A.T. Holdings II), C.T. Phinco Sàrl (C.T. Phinco), ADC Products Switzerland Sàrl (ADC Products), Auven Therapeutics Holdings L.P. (Auven Therapeutics), Auven Therapeutics General L.P. (Auven Therapeutics General), Auven Therapeutics GP Ltd. (Auven Therapeutics GP), Stephen Evans-Freke and Peter B. Corr (collectively, the Reporting Persons) on May 29, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on October 13, 2020, Amendment No. 2 filed on December 8, 2022, Amendment No. 3 filed on December 9, 2022, Amendment No. 4 filed on December 23, 2022, and Amendment No. 5 filed on February 6, 2023. This Amendment No. 6 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D, as amended. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.

 

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:

The disclosure in Item 6 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 6.

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

Item 6 of Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:

Sixth Amendment to Credit and Security Agreement

As previously disclosed, A.T. Holdings II is a borrower under the Credit and Security Agreement and has pledged to the lenders party thereto all of the Common Shares beneficially owned by it or afterward acquired by it to secure the lending by such lenders to A.T. Holdings II pursuant to the Credit and Security Agreement. On April 27, 2023, A.T. Holdings II, as Borrower, C.T. Phinco, as Holdings, the Agent, and the lenders party thereto entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Credit and Security Agreement (the Sixth Amendment).

The Sixth Amendment, among other things, provides that C.T. Phinco joins the Credit and Security Agreement as a guarantor and pledges its shares of A.T. Holdings II to secure the Credit and Security Agreement. Furthermore, the Sixth Amendment (i) extends the maturity date to April 15, 2024, (ii) sets the interest rate at (a) 20.00% per annum from February 6, 2023 through September 30, 2023 and (b) 22.5% per annum on and after October 1, 2023, (iii) provides that scheduled interest shall be payable in kind, and (iv) requires that, subject to certain exceptions, cash proceeds from the sale of equity interests be used to repay the obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement. Following A.T. Holdings partial repayment of its obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement using proceeds from the Registered Sale, the outstanding principal balance owed under the Credit and Security Agreement was $18,679,772.44 as of the effective date of the Sixth Amendment. The effectiveness of the Sixth Amendment was dependent on the simultaneous execution of the Share Transfer Agreement (as defined below).


Share Transfer Agreement

On April 27, 2023, A.T. Holdings II entered into a Share Transfer Agreement (the Share Transfer Agreement) with each lender party thereto (collectively, the Lenders) and Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC, as administrative agent on behalf of the lenders (the Agent). Pursuant to the Share Transfer Agreement, as soon as reasonably practicable after the payment in full of all obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement, and in any event within five business days following such payment, A.T. Holdings II shall irrevocably transfer, convey, assign and deliver an aggregate of 1,435,749 Common Shares (the ADCT Shares) of the Issuer, free and clear of all liens, to the Lenders, which ADCT Shares shall be allocated among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the principal amount of credit extensions outstanding under the Credit and Security Agreement. The Share Transfer Agreement provides that notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at the earlier of (i) the maturity date of the Credit and Security Agreement or (ii) the acceleration of the obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement, (a) the Agent determines in its sole discretion that A.T. Holdings II does not have sufficient monetizable assets (other than the ADCT Shares) to repay in full all obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement and (b) A.T. Holdings II and the Lenders agree on compensation to the Lenders for allowing the sale of the ADCT Shares, then, following the sale of all other shares of the Issuer that constitute collateral under the Credit and Security Agreement and upon such determination, A.T. Holdings II shall have the right to sell all or a portion of the ADCT Shares and use the proceeds from such sale to pay in full all obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement; provided that any excess cash from such sales is the property of the Lenders.

The foregoing description of the Share Transfer Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Share Transfer Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 7.

MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

 

Exhibit    Description
99.1    Share Transfer Agreement, dated April 27, 2023, by and between A.T. Holdings II Sàrl, each lender party thereto, and Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC, as administrative agent on behalf of the lenders.
