The disclosure in Item 4 below is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

 

Item 4.Purpose of the Transaction.

 

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:

 

On November 8, 2017, the Adviser acquired beneficial ownership of 280,263 shares of common stock of Mirati Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Issuer”), held directly by 667, Life Sciences, and 14159, as a result of the exercise of 280,263 warrants to purchase the Issuer’s common stock at $7.86 per share with an expiration date of November 21, 2017 (the “2017 Warrants”). The amount expended on acquiring the common stock was $192,302.76 for 667, $1,963,435.86 for Life Sciences and $47,128.56 for 14159, totaling $2,202,867.18. Each of the Funds funded the exercise of the 2017 Warrants with their working capital.

 

On November 16, 2017, the Issuer entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Cowen and Company LLC and Barclays Capital Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters listed on Schedule A thereto (the “Underwriters”), related to an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of 2,015,901 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a price to the public of $13.00 per share and 4,137,999 warrants to purchase the common stock of the Issuer at  purchase price of $12.999 per warrant. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.001 per share with no expiration date (the “Pre-Funded warrants”). In addition, the Issuer granted the Underwriters an option exercisable for 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement to purchase, at the public offering price less any underwriting discounts and commissions, up to an additional 923,085 shares of common stock to cover overallotments, if any. The Offering is expected to close on November 20, 2017.

 

Pursuant to the Offering, on November 16, 2017, 667 and Life Sciences (collectively the “Purchasing Funds”) purchased 304,392 and 1,618,684 Pre-Funded Warrant shares, respectively, at the offering price of $12.999 per share. The Purchasing Funds purchased the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock with their working capital.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Funds and the Issuer entered into a Board Observer and Director Rights Agreement under which the Funds have the right to nominate a board observer to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) as long as the Funds and their affiliates own at least 3MM shares in aggregate of common stock  and  Pre-Funded Warrants and have the right to nominate a director to the Board as long as the Funds and their affiliates own at least 3MM shares in the aggregate of the common stock  and Pre-Funded Warrants of the Issuer and 8% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer (“Board Rights”). These Board Rights supersede the existing rights to appoint an observer or director to the Board under the Securities Purchase Agreement dated November 9, 2012 by and among the Funds and MethylGene Inc.

 

The foregoing description of the Board Observer and Director Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Board Observer and Directors Rights Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Funds hold securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons or their affiliates may purchase additional securities or dispose of securities in varying amounts and at varying times depending upon the Reporting Persons’ continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of shares of common stock or other securities for purchase at particular price levels, the business prospects of the Issuer, other business investment opportunities, economic conditions, stock market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the board of directors and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of shares in the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the particular entities. The Reporting Persons may discuss items of mutual interest with the Issuer, which could include items in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.

 

Depending upon their assessments of the above factors, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may change their present intentions as stated above and they may assess whether to make suggestions to the management of the Issuer regarding financing, and whether to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, including shares of common stock (by means of open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, or otherwise) or to dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer, including shares of common stock, under their control. Additionally, the reporting persons have a representative acting as a board observer of the Issuer and have a right to nominate one person to the board of directors of the Issuer, subject to certain limitations.

 

 

 

Except as otherwise disclosed herein, at the present time, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals with respect to any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer including, without limitation, those matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Amendment No. 4.

 

ITEM 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a) and (b)    Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 4 are incorporated herein by reference. Set forth below is the aggregate number and percentage of shares of Common Stock directly held, as of the date hereof, by each of the following based upon 26,993,621 shares of common stock outstanding following the Offering as reported in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed with the SEC on November 16, 2017 and 163,386 shares issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, subject to limitations described below. Such percentage figures were calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

Holder  Number of Shares of Common Stock we own or have the right to acquire within 60 days   Percent of Class Outstanding 
667, L.P.   304,630    1.12%
Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P.   2,535,604    9.35%
14159, L.P.   35,999    0.13%

 

The Pre-Funded Warrants are only exercisable to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise the holders thereof and their affiliates would beneficially own, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), no more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. As a result of this restriction, the number of shares that may be issued upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants by the above holders may change depending upon changes in the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

The Adviser GP, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker as principals of the Adviser GP, and the Adviser may be deemed to be beneficial owners of securities of the Issuer directly held by the Funds, and may be deemed to have the power to vote or direct the vote of and the power to dispose or direct the disposition of such securities.

 

The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities held by each of the Funds, and this Amendment No. 4 shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of such securities for purposes of Section 13(d) or for any other purpose, except to the extent that any such Reporting Persons actually exercises voting or dispositive power with respect to such securities.

 

(c)    The disclosure regarding the exercise of the 2017 Warrants described in Item 4 is incorporated by reference herein. Except as described in this Amendment No. 4, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction in the securities of the Issuer in the past 60 days.
