Statement on Schedule 13D

 

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends and restates the Statement on Schedule 13D initially filed on October 8, 2015 (“Original Schedule 13D”) and relates to the beneficial ownership of Common Stock, $0.00001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Synlogic, Inc.

Powell (“Powell”), Dr. James I. Healy (“Healy”), and Dr. Anand Mehra (“Mehra” and collectively with SVP VIII, SM VIII, Powell, and Healy, the “Reporting Persons”). This Amendment No. 1 is being filed to update the aggregate percentage of the class of securities of the Issuer owned by the Reporting Persons due to dilution caused by the Issuer’s additional issuance of Common Shares from time to time since the date of the filing of the Original Schedule 13D.

The Series C preferred shares accrued stock dividends payable in additional Series C preferred shares at a rate of 8% per annum accruing from the date of issuance.

On March 31, 2015, SVP VIII entered into a Series D investment agreement pursuant to which SVP VIII acquired from the Issuer an aggregate 583,559 shares of Series D preferred shares for a purchase price of approximately $9.17 per share, or $ 5,348,323.12 in the aggregate. The Series D preferred shares accrued stock dividends payable in additional Series D preferred shares at a rate of 8% per annum accruing from the date of issuance. The aggregate amount of stock dividends that accrued through the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering of Common Stock (“Offering”) from the Series D preferred shares held by SVP VIII was 31,650 shares of Common Stock

 

On June 4, 2015, Powell was granted a stock option from the Issuer to purchase 6,666 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.45 per share. Such option will expire on June 4, 2025. The option vests with respect to 20% of the shares subject thereto on May 1, 2015, with the remaining shares vesting with respect to 1/8 of the remaining shares subject thereto on each six month anniversary thereafter, subject to Powell continuing to provide services to the Issuer through each such vesting date.

 

On September 30, 2015, Powell was granted a stock option from the Issuer to purchase 7,200 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share.

The option vests with respect to 33.3% of the shares subject thereto on each yearly anniversary of September 30, 2015, subject to Powell continuing to provide services to the Issuer through each vesting date.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Series C and Series D preferred shares automatically converted on a one-for-one basis into 1,244,268 shares of Common Stock and 583,559 shares of Common Stock respectively. The accrued stock dividends associated with the Series C and Series D preferred shares converted on one-for-one basis into 289.841 shares of Common Stock.

 

In connection with the Offering, SVP VIII purchased 857,142 shares of Common Stock at $7 per share, or $5,999,994 in the aggregate. Such purchase occurred pursuant to and on the terms set forth in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on October 1, 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Prospectus”).

 

The Issuer effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split immediately prior to the completion of the Offering. Accordingly, unless otherwise noted above, all disclosed numbers and nominal value of shares are adjusted for such stock split.

On August 28, 2017, Mirna Therapeutics, Inc. completed its business combination with Synlogic, Inc. in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of May 15, 2017 (the “Merger”). On August 25, 2017, in connection with, and prior to the completion of, the Merger, the Issuer effected a 1:7 reserve stock split of its Common Stock. Accordingly, all disclosed numbers and nominal value of shares listed below are adjusted for such stock split.

On December 29, 2017, Powell was granted a stock option from the Issuer to purchase 18,572 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $9.70 per share. Such option will expire on December 29, 2027. Such option vests and becomes exercisable in substantially equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of August 28, 2017 subject to Powell continuing to provide services to the Issuer through each such vesting date.

 

 

On January 26, 2018, SVP VIII purchased 150,000 shares of Common Stock at $9.75 per share, or $1,462,500 in the aggregate, in connection with an offering of shares of Common Stock by the Issuer.

 

The source of the funds for all purchases and acquisitions by the Reporting Persons was from working capital.

 

No part of the purchase price was borrowed by any Reporting Person for the purpose of acquiring any securities discussed in this Item 3.

 

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

The Reporting Persons hold their securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. Depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, acquire additional Common Stock and/or retain and/or sell all or a portion of the Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, and/or may distribute the Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons to their respective members or limited partners. Any actions the Reporting Persons might undertake will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons’ review of numerous factors, including, among other things, the price levels of the Common Stock, general market and economic conditions, ongoing evaluation of the Issuer's business, financial condition, operations and prospects; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities, and other future developments. Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or intentions which would result in or relate to any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
