| (a) | Item 5 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(a) The aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock that may be deemed beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is comprised of the following: (i) 456,784 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Fund, L.P., (ii) 494,932 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore Master Fund, Ltd., (iii) 374,149 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore II Master Fund, Ltd., (iv) 301,022 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Long Only Trading Sub, Ltd., (v) 467,910 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Trading Sub, Ltd., (vi) 3,338,997 shares of Common Stock held by RBI II, and (vii) 105,930 shares of Common Stock held by RedCo I, L.P. Redmile is the investment manager to each of the private investment funds listed in items (i) through (vii) (the "Redmile Funds") and, in such capacity, exercises voting and investment power over all of the shares held by the Redmile Funds and may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares. Jeremy C. Green serves as the managing member of Redmile and also may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares. Redmile and Mr. Green each disclaim beneficial ownership of these securities, except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest in such shares, if any.
Subject to the Beneficial Ownership Blocker (as defined below), Redmile and Mr. Green may also be deemed to beneficially own 11,296,283 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, including the New Warrants. This aggregate number is comprised of (i) 549,386 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 549,386 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants held by Redmile Capital Fund, L.P., (ii) 468,465 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 468,465 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants held by Redmile Capital Offshore Master Fund, Ltd., (iii) 1,539,645 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 306,231 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants held by Redmile Strategic Long Only Trading Sub, Ltd., (iv) 632,537 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 315,540 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants held by Redmile Strategic Trading Sub, Ltd., (v) 3,598,835 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 2,048,423 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants held by RBI II, and (vi) 409,685 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 409,685 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Common Warrants held by RedCo I, L.P. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, the Common Stock that may be acquired upon exercise of the Warrants shall be limited to the extent that, following such exercise, the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by the holder of the Warrants (together with the holder's affiliates, any other persons deemed to be acting as a group together with the holder or any of its affiliates, or any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would or could be aggregated with the holder's and/or its affiliates' for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act), would exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the "Beneficial Ownership Blocker"). The "Beneficial Ownership Limitation" is 9.99% of the shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding, which percentage may be changed at a holder's election upon 61 days' notice to the Issuer. The shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in this Schedule 13D represent the shares of Common Stock held directly by the Redmile Funds and the 726,435 shares of Common Stock that could be issued to the Redmile Funds, including RBI II, upon exercise of certain of the Warrants directly held by the Redmile Funds, including RBI II, under the Beneficial Ownership Blocker.
Redmile and Mr. Green may also be deemed to beneficially own 112,936 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of certain vested options. The stock options were granted to Mike Lee, a managing director of Redmile, in connection with his service as a member of the Board of Directors and are exercisable within 60 days of the date of this filing. Pursuant to the policies of Redmile, Mr. Lee holds the stock options as a nominee on behalf, and for the sole benefit, of Redmile and has assigned all economic, pecuniary and voting rights in respect of the stock options to Redmile.
For purposes of this Schedule 13D, the percent of class calculated based on the sum of (i) 47,903,215 shares of Common Stock outstanding on May 14, 2025, as disclosed in the Issuer's Definitive Proxy Statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting of the Stockholders filed on Schedule 14A with the SEC on May 21, 2025, (ii) 15,225,158 shares of Common Stock issued by the Issuer in the PIPE as reported by the Issuer in its Form 8-K dated August 5, 2025 filed with the SEC on August 6, 2025, plus (iii) 726,435 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants directly held by the Redmile Funds, which due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation is the maximum number of shares that could be issued upon exercise of those Warrants. |
