EXPLANATORY NOTE
On June 13, 2025, Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Supernus”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 13, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”), with Sage Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sage”), and Saphire, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Supernus (“Purchaser”). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to such terms in the Merger Agreement.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on July 2, 2025, Purchaser commenced a tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Sage, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), at a price of (i) $8.50 per Share, in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest (the “Closing Amount”), plus (ii) one contingent value right per Share (a “CVR”), which represents the right to receive contingent payments of up to $3.50 per Share, in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, which amount will become payable, if at all, if specified milestones are achieved prior to June 30, 2026, December 31, 2027, December 31, 2028 and December 31, 2030, as applicable, pursuant to the CVR Agreement (collectively, the Closing Amount plus one CVR, the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated July 2, 2025 (together with any amendments, supplements or modifications thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments, supplements, or modifications thereto, the “Letter of Transmittal” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”).
The Offer and related withdrawal rights expired one minute following 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 30, 2025 (the “Expiration Date”). As a result of the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition and each of the other conditions to the Offer, effective as of the time on which the Offer expired on the Expiration Date, Purchaser irrevocably accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer, and paid for all such validly tendered Shares.
Following the consummation of the Offer, the remaining conditions to the Merger (as defined below) set forth in the Merger Agreement were satisfied, and on July 31, 2025, Purchaser was merged with and into Sage without a vote of the stockholders of Sage (the “Merger”) in accordance with Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, with Sage surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Supernus.
On July 31, 2025, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) reporting the consummation of the Offer and Merger on July 31, 2025.
