This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed as an amendment to the statement on Schedule 13D relating to the ordinary shares, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”) of Quotient Limited, a Jersey, Channel Islands corporation (the “Issuer”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 12, 2014 (the “Original Schedule 13D”).

All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to the terms in the Original Schedule 13D. The Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows and, except as expressly amended below, the Original Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is amended by adding the following to the end thereto:

On October 24, 2017, the Issuer entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with the subscribers identified on the signature pages thereto (the “Subscribers”) for the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of (i) 7,874,683 newly issued ordinary shares, of nil par value, of the Issuer at a subscription price of $4.64 per share (the “New Ordinary Shares”), which is equal to the closing bid price of the ordinary shares on NASDAQ on October 24, 2017, (ii) newly issued warrants (the “New Warrants”) of the Issuer, at a purchase price of $0.125 per underlying warrant share, exercisable for up to 8,414,683 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $5.80 per ordinary share (“New Warrant Shares”), and (iii) newly issued pre-funded warrants of the Issuer (the “Pre-Funded Warrants” and, together with the New Warrants, the “Warrants”) at a purchase price of $4.755 per underlying pre-funded warrant share, exercisable for up to 550,000 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per ordinary share (“Pre-Funded Warrant Shares” and, together with New Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares” and, together with New Ordinary Shares, the “Shares”).

The source of funds for such purchase was the working capital of Galen LP and Galen International and capital contributions made to Galen LP and Galen International by their partners.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is amended by adding the following to the end thereto:

Galen LP and Galen International purchased the Ordinary Shares and warrants in the Private Placement for investment purposes.    

Subject to applicable legal requirements, one or more of the Filing Persons may purchase additional securities of the Issuer from time to time in open market or private transactions, depending on their evaluation of the Issuer’s business, prospects and financial condition, the market for the Issuer’s securities, other developments concerning the Issuer, the reaction of the Issuer to the Filing Persons’ ownership of the Issuer’s securities, other opportunities available to the Filing Persons and general economic, money market and stock market conditions. In addition, depending upon the factors referred to above, the Filing Persons may dispose of all or a portion of their securities of the Issuer at any time. Each of the Filing Persons reserves the right to increase or decrease its holdings on such terms and at such times as each may decide.

Other than as described above in this Item 4, none of the Filing Persons have any plan or proposal relating to or that would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or terms of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board of Directors of the Issuer; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) any changes in the Issuer’s charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) a class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above.

Ordinary Share Purchase Warrant

In connection with the Private Placement, as described in Item 3 above, Galen LP and Galen International purchased an aggregate of 419,728 New Warrants. The material terms and provisions of the New Warrants are summarized below.

Term. The New Warrants are immediately exercisable and will expire on July 31, 2018. The term can also be extended by the Issuer at its sole discretion.

Anti-Dilution Protection. The warrants contain full ratchet anti-dilution protection upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares, securities convertible into ordinary shares or certain other issuances at a price below the then-existing exercise price of the warrants, with certain exceptions.

Exercise Price. The exercise price of the warrants is $5.80 per whole Ordinary Share. The exercise price is subject to adjustment in the event of certain share dividends and distributions, share splits, share combinations, share issuances, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Ordinary Shares, as well as the anti-dilution protection described above. The exercise price can also be lowered by the Issuer at its sole discretion.

Exercisability. Holders may exercise the warrants immediately and at any time during the applicable term of the warrant. Subject to certain exceptions, a holder of the warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of such securities if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of the Issuer’s ordinary shares outstanding immediately after the exercise. The warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Issuer a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full in cash for the number of Ordinary Shares purchased upon such exercise.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Private Placement, the Issuer also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 24, 2017, with the Subscribers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which it has agreed to file, within 15 days of the closing of the Private Placement, a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register the Shares and the New Warrants for resale, which registration statement is required to become effective within 45 days following the closing. The Issuer will be required to pay certain cash amounts as liquidated damages of one percent (1%) of the aggregate purchase price of the New Ordinary Shares and Warrants that are registrable securities per month (up to a cap of 10% of the aggregate subscription price of the New Ordinary Shares and Warrants) if it does not meet certain of its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to the registration of the Shares and the New Warrants.

Lock-up Agreement

Galen LP, Galen International, Management, Galen, Zubeen Shroff and L. John Wilkerson have agreed with Perceptive Advisors LLC and Highbridge Capital Management, LLC, affiliates of the lead investors in the Private Placement, that, for a period beginning on October 24, 2017 and ending on January 28, 2018, that they will not, without the prior written consent of each of Perceptive Advisors LLC and Highbridge Capital Management, LLC, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position with respect to, any Ordinary Shares or any other securities of the Issuer that are substantially similar to Ordinary Shares, or any other securities of the Issuer that are substantially similar to Ordinary Shares, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to acquire, the foregoing, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Ordinary Shares or any other securities of the Issuer that are substantially similar to Ordinary Shares, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to acquire, the foregoing, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (iii) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii).

The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the New Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Lock-up Agreement are intended as summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the form of New Warrant, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Lock-up Agreement, which are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein.
