Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D

 

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the previously filed Schedule 13D filed by Baker Bros. Advisors LP (the “Adviser”), Baker Bros. Advisors (GP) LLC (the “Adviser GP”), Julian C. Baker and Felix J. Baker (collectively the “Reporting Persons”). Except as supplemented herein, such statements, as heretofore amended and supplemented, remain in full force and effect. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable. Each capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Schedule 13D, as amended.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 of Schedule 13D is supplemented as follows:

 

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 amended, as the case may be, as follows:

 

On January 30, 2017 the Adviser acquired beneficial ownership of 7,000 warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares of DBV Technologies S.A. (the “Issuer”) at an exercise price of 69.75 that are immediately exercisable and expire on December 9, 2026 (the “Warrants”). The Warrants are held directly by Michael Goller, an employee of the Adviser. The right to purchase these Warrants were granted as part of Mr. Goller’s service on the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Mr. Goller serves on the Board as a representative of 667, L.P. (“667”) and Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. (“Life Sciences”, and together with 667, the “Funds”) .. The policy of the Funds and the Adviser does not permit employees of the Adviser to receive compensation for serving as a director of the Issuer, and the Funds are instead entitled to the pecuniary interest in the Warrants. Mr. Goller has neither voting nor dispositive power and has no direct pecuniary interest in the Warrants. If Mr. Goller leaves the Board, he will have 60 trading days during open periods to exercise the Warrants.

 

In order to effect the acquisition of the Warrants, on January 27, 2017, the Adviser entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with the Funds pursuant to which 667 and Life Sciences loaned 4,104.24 and 44,755.76, respectively, to the Adviser for the purpose of acquiring 588 and 6,412 Warrants, respectively. The loan is due January 27, 2047, or earlier if the Ordinary Shares underlying the Warrants are sold (the “Due Date”), with interest payable through the Due Date at a rate of 2.75% annually.

 

On January 27, 2017, Mr.Goller as an agent in his capacity as a director of the Issuer, entered into a Proceeds Agreement (the “Proceeds Agreement”) with the Adviser pursuant to which Mr. Goller agreed that he will remit to the Adviser any directors’ fees, consulting fees and other remuneration that he receives from the Issuer in respect of his service as a director. In addition, Mr. Goller agreed to exercise the Warrants at the time directed by the Adviser, and pursuant to the Proceeds Agreement, the Adviser will provide Mr. Goller with the cash necessary for Mr. Goller to pay the exercise price for the Warrants. Further, Mr. Goller agreed to sell all or any portion of the Ordinary Shares received from exercising the Warrants at the direction of the Adviser and thereafter to remit the gross cash proceeds (net of brokerage commissions) from the sale of the Ordinary Shares to the Adviser. Mr. Goller also agreed not to amend or modify the Warrants, waive any provisions of the Warrants or enter into any agreement or understanding with respect to the Warrants or the Ordinary Shares underlying the Warrants without the prior written consent of the Adviser.

 

 

 

 

Other than through their control of the Adviser, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker have neither voting nor dispositive power and have no direct pecuniary interest in the Warrants.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement and the Proceeds Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Loan Agreement and the Proceeds Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, and are 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 Ordinary Shares 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 and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of securities of 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 Item 4 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 may make suggestions to the management of the Issuer regarding corporate financing and strategy, and may acquire or dispose of securities of the Issuer (by means of open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, exercise of some or all of the Warrants, or otherwise).

 

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 Schedule 13D.

 

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. 2 are incorporated herein by reference. Set forth below is the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares of the Issuer directly held by each of the Funds, including Ordinary Shares owned through American Depositary Shares held by each of the Funds, and the percentage of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares such holdings represent. Each American Depositary Share represents one-half of one Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. The information set forth below is based upon 24,648,828 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2016, according to information published on the Issuer’s website on January 4, 2017. Such percentage figures are calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Pursuant to the management agreements, as amended, among the Adviser, the Funds and their respective general partners, the Funds’ respective general partners relinquished to the Adviser all discretion and authority with respect to the investment and voting power of the securities held by the Funds, and thus the Adviser has complete and unlimited discretion and authority with respect to the Funds’ investments and voting power over investments.

 

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 of the Issuer held by each of the Funds, and this Amendment No. 2 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 Person actually exercises voting or dispositive power with respect to such securities.

 

(c) The disclosure regarding the acquisition of the Warrants in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference. Except as disclosed herein, none of the Reporting Persons or their affiliates has effected any other transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past sixty days.

 

(d) Certain securities of the Issuer are held directly by 667, a limited partnership the sole general partner of which is Baker Biotech Capital, L.P., a limited partnership the sole general partner of which is Baker Biotech Capital (GP), LLC. Julian C. Baker and Felix J. Baker are the controlling members of Baker Biotech Capital (GP), LLC.

 

Certain securities of the Issuer are held directly by Life Sciences, a limited partnership the sole general partner of which is Baker Brothers Life Sciences Capital, L.P., a limited partnership the sole general partner of which is Baker Brothers Life Sciences Capital (GP), LLC. Julian C. Baker and Felix J. Baker are the controlling members of Baker Brothers Life Sciences Capital (GP), LLC.

WHEREAS, the Agent, in his capacity as a director of DBV Technologies S.A. (the “Company”), received non-transferable warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase 7,000 shares of the Company common stock (the “Stock”) according to the below Schedule A;

 

WHEREAS, the Management Company provides management and administrative service to each of Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P., and 667, L.P. (the “Funds”) in exchange for a management fee from each (the “Management Fees”);

 

WHEREAS, the Company is a portfolio company of the Funds;

 

WHEREAS, Pursuant to the Funds’ Limited Partnership Agreements and the Management Company’s policies, directors’ fees, consulting fees and other remuneration (including Warrants or other equity securities) paid by Funds portfolio companies to an agent, officer or employee of the Management Company shall reduce (but not below $0) the Management Fees; and

 

WHEREAS, the Agent and the Management Company wish to memorialize their understanding with respect to the Warrants;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.          Subject to the provisions of Section 2, the Agent agrees, as soon as practicable after receipt from the Company, to remit to the Management Company any directors’ fees, consulting fees and other remuneration that the Agent receives from the Company.

 

2.          The Agent shall exercise the Warrants at the time directed by the Management Company. When the Agent exercises the Warrants, the Management Company shall provide the Agent with the amount of cash necessary to enable the Agent to purchase the Stock for which the Warrants are being exercised from the Company, in compliance with the terms of the Warrants.

 

3.          Thereafter, the Agent shall hold the Stock in a brokerage account at JPMorgan which is not commingled with other personal holdings of the Agent until directed by the Management Company to sell the Stock. The Agent agrees, as soon as practicable after receiving direction from the Management Company, to sell all, or any portion, of the Stock as directed by the Management Company and to remit the gross cash proceeds (but net of brokerage commissions) from the sale of the Stock to the Management Company.

 

 

 

 

4.          The Agent agrees not to amend or modify the Warrants, waive any of the provisions thereof, or enter into any agreement or understanding with respect to the Warrants or the Stock, without the prior written consent of the Management Company.

 

5.          The Agent shall not report any income attributable to these transactions as his own income, but instead, shall report such income on any and all tax returns required to be filed by the Agent as received by him only in his capacity as an agent, officer or employee of the Management Company. The Management Company shall report all such income on any and all tax returns required to be filed by the Management Company.

 

6.          This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns. This Agreement shall survive the death, merger, dissolution or termination of any of the parties hereto and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding that the Agent shall cease to be an agent, officer or employee of the Management Company for any reason.

 

7.          This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a writing signed on behalf of the parties hereto. No provision of this Agreement may be waived except in writing signed on behalf of the party against whom such waiver is asserted.

 

8.          From and after the date of this Agreement, the parties shall execute and deliver such instruments, documents and other writings, and take such other actions, as may be necessary to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of the transactions on their part respectively contemplated by this Agreement.

 

9.          If any of the benefits contemplated by this Agreement would be reduced or unachievable because of restrictions or prohibitions imposed by law (by way of example only, the Securities Act of 1933, state securities laws, or the Company’s governing instruments), the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to preserve the intent of this Agreement and the benefits contemplated hereby by amending, modifying or waiving in an appropriate manner the provisions of this Agreement.

 

10.         This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

 

 

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Proceeds Agreement as of the date first above written.
