Item 4. | Ownership | |
(a) | Amount beneficially owned:
The number of Shares reported owned by each of the persons named herein have been adjusted to account for the Issuer's one-for-ten reverse stock split effective on June 18, 2025, as reported in the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 20, 2025 (the "June 8-K").
As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, the Reporting Persons and a certain Partners managed account (the "Partners Managed Account") held Tranche A Warrants (the "Tranche A Warrants"), Tranche B Warrants (the "Tranche B Warrants") and Tranche C Warrants (the "Tranche C Warrants" and together with the Tranche A Warrants and Tranche B Warrants, the "Warrants"). The Tranche A Warrants, Tranche B Warrants and Tranche C Warrants are, in turn, exercisable into shares of Series A-3 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A-3 Preferred Stock"), shares of Series A-4 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A-4 Preferred Stock") and shares of Series A-5 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A-5 Preferred Stock" and together with the Series A-3 Preferred Stock and Series A-4 Preferred Stock, the "Series A Preferred Stock"), respectively. The Series A Preferred Stock is, in turn, convertible into Shares subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below).
A holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock and such Series A Preferred Stock shall not be converted, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, such holder (together with such holder's affiliates, any other persons acting as a group together, and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Shares would be aggregated with the holder's and the other Attribution Parties (as defined in the Series A Certificate of Designation (as defined below)) for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion, which may not be increased on less than 61 days' notice (the "Beneficial Ownership Limitation").
As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account held Tranche A Warrants to purchase shares of Series A-3 Preferred Stock, which in turn are convertible into an aggregate of 637,411 Shares, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Tranche A Warrants are exercisable at any time upon issuance at an exercise price per share of Series A-3 Preferred Stock (the "Tranche A Exercise Price") equal to 110% of the Conversion Price (as defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series A Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Series A Certificate of Designation")) and expire 21 days following the Issuer's announcement of receipt of FDA approval for Renazorb. As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, assuming all of the Tranche A Warrants held in the aggregate by the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account were exercised for Series A-3 Preferred Stock, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation would not limit the exercise of any of the Series A-3 Preferred Stock held by them.
As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account held Tranche B Warrants to purchase shares of Series A-4 Preferred Stock, which in turn are convertible into an aggregate of 831,281 Shares, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Tranche B Warrants are exercisable at any time upon issuance at an exercise price per share of Series A-4 Preferred Stock (the "Tranche B Exercise Price") equal to 110% of the Tranche A Exercise Price and expire 21 days following the Issuer's announcement of receipt of Transitional Drug Add-On Payment Adjustment approval for Renazorb. As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, assuming all of the Tranche B Warrants held in the aggregate by the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account were exercised for Series A-4 Preferred Stock, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation would limit the exercise of the Series A-4 Preferred Stock to 779,706 out of the 831,281 Shares underlying the Series A-4 Preferred Stock held by them.
As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account held Tranche C Warrants to purchase shares of Series A-5 Preferred Stock, which in turn are convertible into an aggregate of 1,330,053 Shares, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Tranche C Warrants are exercisable at any time upon issuance at an exercise price per share of Series A-5 Preferred Stock equal to 125% of the Tranche B Exercise Price and expire 21 days following the Issuer's public disclosure of financial results for four quarters of commercial sales of Renazorb following receipt of Transitional Drug Add-On Payment Adjustment approval for Renazorb, commencing with the first quarter in which the Issuer receives revenue from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for Renazorb under the Transitional Drug Add-On Payment Adjustment. As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, assuming all of the Tranche C Warrants held in the aggregate by the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account were exercised for Series A-5 Preferred Stock, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation would prohibit the conversion of any of the Series A-5 Preferred Stock held by them.
As of the close of business on June 30, 2025, (i) BVF beneficially owned 777,308 Shares, consisting of 333,352 Shares underlying the Series A-3 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche A Warrants held by it, and 443,956 Shares underlying the Series A-4 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche B Warrants held by it, and excludes 710,330 Shares underlying the Series A-5 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche C Warrants held by it, (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned 591,650 Shares, consisting of 255,900 Shares underlying the Series A-3 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche A Warrants held by it, and 335,750 Shares underlying the Series A-4 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying certain Tranche B Warrants held by it, and excludes 1,431 Shares underlying the Series A-4 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying certain Tranche B Warrants held by it, and 539,491 Shares underlying the Series A-5 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche C Warrants held by it, and (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned 35,480 Shares, consisting of 35,480 Shares underlying the Series A-3 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche A Warrants held by it, and excludes 38,617 Shares underlying the Series A-4 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche B Warrants held by it, and 61,788 Shares underlying the Series A-5 Preferred Stock, which in turn are underlying the Tranche C Warrants held by it.
