Item 4.       Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

The Reporting Persons acquired the securities reported herein for investment in the ordinary course of business because of their belief that the Issuer represents an attractive investment based on the Issuer’s business prospects and strategy. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire, or cause to be acquired, additional securities of the Issuer, to dispose of, or cause to be disposed, such securities at any time or to formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or any of its securities, to the extent deemed advisable in light of general investment and trading policies of the Reporting Persons, market conditions or other factors. Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons do not have any plan or proposal that would relate to, or result in, any of the matters set forth under subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Timothy Haines, an Investment Director and Partner of Abingworth, resigned from the Board of Directors of the Issuer on December 19, 2016.

 

Item 5.       Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

As of December 19, 2016, Abingworth may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 3,473,452 Ordinary Shares, of the Issuer which consist of (i) 1,234,835 Ordinary Shares held ABV V, (ii) 1,488,617 Ordinary Shares held by AGE, (iii) 500,000 Ordinary Shares held ABE, and (iv) 250,000 Ordinary Shares held by ABV VI. Abingworth, as the investment manager of ABV V, AGE, ABE and ABV VI, may be deemed to beneficially own the 1,234,835 Ordinary Shares held by ABV V, the 1,488,617 Ordinary Shares held by AGE, the 500,000 Ordinary Shares held by ABE, and the 250,000 Ordinary Shares held by ABV VI. Thus, as of December 19, 2016, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, Abingworth may be deemed to beneficially own 12.4% of the Ordinary Shares deemed issued and outstanding.

 

The foregoing beneficial ownership percentage is based upon the information set forth in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 20F filed with the SEC on April 29, 2016, Issuer’s report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC on December 19, 2016 and information provided by the Issuer, there were 27,950,785 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of December 19, 2016.

 

Abingworth is not the owner of record of any Ordinary Shares. Abingworth, as the investment manager to the Abingworth Funds, may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 3,473,452 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 12.4% of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer deemed issued and outstanding as of December 19, 2016.

 

As set forth in the cover sheets to this Schedule 13D, (i) ABV V has shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the 1,234,835 Ordinary Shares held by ABV V, and does not have sole voting and dispositive power over any of the securities reported herein; (ii) AGE has shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the 1,488,617 Ordinary Shares held by AGE, and does not have sole voting and dispositive power over any of the securities reported herein; (iii) ABE has shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the 500,000 Ordinary Shares held by ABE, and does not have sole voting and dispositive power over any of the securities reported herein; (iv) ABV VI has shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the 250,000 Ordinary Shares held by ABV VI, and does not have sole voting and dispositive power over any of the securities reported herein; and (v) Abingworth has shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the 3,473,452 Ordinary Shares held by the Abingworth Funds, and does not have sole voting and dispositive power over any of the securities reported herein.

 

There have been no transactions in the Ordinary Shares by the Reporting Persons, on behalf of the Abingworth Funds, during the period commencing sixty (60) days prior to December 19, 2016 and for the period from December 19, 2016 to the date of filing hereof.
