Entry into New Sales Agreement
On November 13, 2023, we entered into an at-the-market equity offering sales agreement (the 2023 Sales Agreement) with Leerink Partners LLC (Leerink), pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time at our sole discretion, up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million of our common stock through Leerink (the 2023 ATM Facility). We are not required to sell shares under the 2023 Sales Agreement. Sales of our common stock, if any, under the 2023 Sales Agreement may be made in any transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The 2023 Sales Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination provisions. We will pay Leerink a commission equal to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold through it pursuant to the 2023 Sales Agreement. No sales may be made under the 2023 Sales Agreement until a prospectus supplement relating to the 2023 ATM Offering is filed with the SEC.
The 2023 ATM Offering is being made under a prospectus supplement dated November 13, 2023, and related prospectus to be filed with the SEC pursuant to our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-264616).
A copy of the 2023 Sales Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. A copy of the opinion of Cooley LLP relating to the validity of the securities issued in the 2023 ATM Offering is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Termination of Prior Sales Agreement
On November 13, 2023, we and Leerink agreed to terminate the sales agreement that we entered into with Leerink on May 2, 2022 (the Prior Sales Agreement), effective November 13, 2023. Under the Prior Sales Agreement, we were permitted to offer and sell, from time to time at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $20.0 million through Leerink by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act. Prior to such termination, we had sold and issued approximately 500,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Prior Sales Agreement at a weighted-average price of $2.48 per share, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to us of $1.2 million. In connection with the termination of the Prior Sales Agreement, we terminated the prospectus, dated May 9, 2022, related to the $20.0 million of shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Prior Sales Agreement.
