Overview of the Company

 

We are a clinical-stage company developing innovative drug therapies to overcome unmet medical needs in chronic debilitating conditions.

 

In neurodegenerative disease, we acquired the biopharmaceutical assets of NeurMedix, Inc. (“NeurMedix”), a related party privately held clinical-stage pharmaceutical company and related party affiliate, in June 2021. The acquired assets include NE3107, a potentially selective inhibitor of inflammatory ERK signaling that, based on animal studies, it may reduce neuroinflammation. NE3107 is a novel, orally administered small molecule that is thought to inhibit inflammation-driven insulin resistance and major pathological inflammatory cascades with a novel mechanism of action. There is emerging scientific consensus that both inflammation and insulin resistance may play fundamental roles in the development of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, and NE3107 could, if approved, represent an entirely new medical approach to treating these devastating conditions affecting an estimated 6 million Americans suffering from Alzheimer’s and 1 million from Parkinson’s. The FDA has authorized a potentially pivotal Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter study to evaluate NE3107 in subjects who have mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease (NCT04669028). We initiated this trial on August 5, 2021 and are targeting primary completion in Q3 of the 2023 calendar year.

 

On January 20, 2022, the Company initiated a study by treating the first patient, in its Phase 2 study assessing NE3107’s safety and tolerability and potential pro-motoric impact in Parkinson’s disease patients (the “PD Trial”). The NM201 study (NCT05083260) is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics study in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Participants will be treated with carbidopa/levodopa and NE3107 or placebo. Forty patients with a defined PD medication “off state” will be randomized 1:1 placebo to active NE3107 20 mg twice daily for 28 days. Safety assessments will look at standard measures of patient health and potential for drug-drug interactions affecting L-dopa pharmacokinetics and activity. Exploratory efficacy assessments will use the Motor Disease Society Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating (MDS-UPDRS) parts 1-3, ON/OFF Diary, and Non-Motor Symptom Scale.

 

The NM201 study (NCT05083260) is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics study in Parkinson’s disease (PD) participants treated with carbidopa/levodopa and NE3107. 45 patients with a defined L-dopa “off state” were randomized 1:1 to placebo:NE3107 20 mg twice daily for 28 days. This trial was launched with two design objectives: 1) the primary objectives are safety and a drug-drug interaction study as requested by the FDA to demonstrate the absence of adverse interactions of NE3107 with levodopa; and 2) the secondary objective is to determine if preclinical indications of promotoric activity and apparent enhancement of levodopa activity can be seen in humans. Both objectives were met.

 

In liver disease, our Orphan Drug candidate BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin) is being developed as a future treatment option for patients suffering from ascites and other life-threatening complications of advanced liver cirrhosis caused by NASH, hepatitis, and alcoholism. The initial target for BIV201 therapy is refractory ascites. These patients suffer from frequent life-threatening complications, generate more than $5 billion in annual treatment costs, and have an estimated 50% mortality rate within 6 to 12 months. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved any drug to treat refractory ascites. The Company’s Orphan drug candidate BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin), with FDA Fast Track status, is being evaluated in a US Phase 2b study for the treatment of refractory ascites due to liver cirrhosis. BIV201 is administered as a patent-pending liquid formulation. The active agent is approved in the U.S. and in about 40 countries for related complications of advanced liver cirrhosis. For more information, visit http://www.bioviepharma.com/. 

 

The BIV201 development program was initiated by LAT Pharma LLC. On April 11, 2016, the Company acquired LAT Pharma LLC and the rights to its BIV201 development program. The Company currently owns all development and marketing rights to its drug candidate. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on April 11, 2016, between our predecessor entities, LAT Pharma LLC and NanoAntibiotics, Inc., BioVie is obligated to pay a low single digit royalty on net sales of BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin) to be shared among LAT Pharma Members, PharmaIn Corporation, and The Barrett Edge, Inc.

Underwriter Warrants Issued in Connection with Registered Public Offering

 

On September 22, 2020, we closed a registered public offering (the “Offering”) issuing 1,799,980 of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at $10.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $15.6 million, net of issuance costs of approximately $2.4 million; and of which approximately $1.8 million was used to satisfy all amounts owing in respect of a 10% OID Convertible Delayed Draw Debenture due September 24, 2020 held by the Company’s controlling stockholder, Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC. In connection with the closing of the Offering of registered Common Stock, we issued warrants (the “Underwriter Warrants”) to purchase 89,998 shares of Common Stock (the “Underwriter Warrant Shares”) to the underwriters of the Offering.

 

We entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with ThinkEquity, a division of Fordham Financial Management, Inc., and Kingswood Capital Markets, Division of Benchmark Investments, Inc. (the “Representatives”) in connection with the Offering. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we agreed to (i) pay the underwriters a cash fee equal to seven percent (7%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering plus a one percent (1%) nonaccountable expense; and (ii) grant the Representatives warrants to purchase that number of shares of our common stock equal to an aggregate of up to five percent (5%) of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering (or 89,999 shares given the underwriters fully exercised the overallotment option). Such Underwriter Warrants have an exercise price equal to $12.50 per share, which is 125% of the public offering price, and terminate on September 17, 2025 (i.e., the five-year anniversary of the issuance date of the Underwriter Warrants). The Warrants are not subject to redemption by us.

 

Neither the Underwriter Warrants nor the Underwriter Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Underwriter Warrants issued and sold in the Offering were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or applicable state securities laws, and were issued and sold pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, based on representations made by the Selling Stockholders.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, we agreed to provide the holders of the Underwriter Warrants with certain registration rights, which require us to prepare and file this registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the Underwriter Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Underwriter Warrants sold in the Offering within sixty (60) days after receipt of a demand notice of the holders of at least 51% of the Underwriter Warrants and/or the underlying Underwriter Warrant Shares.

 

Lender Warrants Issued in Connection with Loan Agreement

 

On November 30, 2021 (the “Loan Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement and the Supplement to the Loan and Security Agreement (together, the “Loan Agreement”) with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P. (“AVOPII”) and Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P. (“AVOPI” and, together with AVOPII, the “Lenders,”) for growth capital loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20,000,000 (the “Loan”), with (i) $15,000,000 funded on the Loan Closing Date (“Tranche 1”) and (ii) up to $5,000,000 to be made available to the Company on or prior to September 15, 2022, subject to the Company’s achievement of certain milestones with respect to certain of its ongoing clinical trials (“Tranche 2”). The Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) the sum of 7.00% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal and (b) 10.75%. The Loan is secured by a lien upon and security interest in all of the Company’s assets, including intellectual property, subject to agreed exceptions. The maturity date of the Loan is December 1, 2024. Up to $5,000,000 of the principal amount of the Loan outstanding may be converted, at the option of the Lenders, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $6.98 per share.

 

In connection with the Loan, pursuant to the funding of Tranche 1 on the Loan Closing Date, the Company issued to the Lenders warrants to purchase 361,002 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price per share equal to $5.82 (the “Lender Warrants”). The Lender Warrants, which are exercisable until November 30, 2026, were offered and sold by the Company in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 

The Lenders may exercise the Lender Warrants at any time, or from time to time up to and including the Expiration Date, by making a cash payment equal to the exercise price multiplied by the quantity of shares. The Lenders may also exercise the Lender Warrants on a cashless or “net issuance” basis by receiving a net number of shares calculated pursuant to the formula set forth in the Lender Warrants. The Lender Warrants are subject to anti-dilution adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, and reverse stock splits. Pursuant to the terms of the Lender Warrants, the holders of the Lender Warrants are entitled to piggyback registration rights if the Company proposes to file a new registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of effecting an underwritten offering of its equity securities, subject to certain limitations.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

 

On September 17, 2020, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which we issued and sold to certain of the Selling Stockholders Underwriter Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 89,998 shares of Common Stock. On November 30, 2021, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement pursuant to which we issued and sold to certain of the Selling Stockholders Lender Warrants to purchase 361,002 shares of Common Stock. This prospectus covers the sale or other disposition by the Selling Stockholders and their respective donees, pledgees or other successors-in-interest of up to the total number of Shares registered on behalf of the Selling Stockholders in the manner contemplated under “Plan of Distribution” below. Throughout this prospectus, when we refer to the Shares being registered on behalf of the Selling Stockholders, we are referring to the Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants issued to the Selling Stockholders in the Offering and the Loan, and when we refer to the Selling Stockholders in this prospectus, we are referring to those investors set forth in the table below.

 

In connection with the Underwriting Agreement and the Loan and Security Agreement, we granted certain registration rights to the Selling Stockholders. The Underwriting Agreement and the Loan and Security Agreement also provide, among other things, certain indemnification rights and reimbursement by the Company of certain fees and expenses.

 

We have agreed with the Selling Stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the date that the Selling Stockholders are first given the opportunity to sell all of the Shares. 

 

Except as otherwise disclosed herein and in the footnotes below with respect to the Selling Stockholders, the Selling Stockholders do not, and within the past three years, have not had, any position, office or other material relationship with us.

 

The following table sets forth the name of the Selling Stockholders, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders, the number of Shares that may be offered under this prospectus and the number of shares of our Common Stock that will be owned by the Selling Stockholders assuming all of the Shares covered hereby are sold. The number of Shares in the column “Number of Shares Being Offered” represents all of the Shares that the Selling Stockholders may offer under this prospectus. Pursuant to Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act (“Rule 13(d)”), beneficial ownership includes all shares of our Common Stock as to which a Selling Stockholder has sole or shared voting power or investment power, and also any shares of our Common Stock which the Selling Stockholder has the right to acquire within 60 days of March 29, 2023, but without regard to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation included in the Warrants (described below). The actual beneficial ownership of certain Selling Stockholders (determined in accordance with Rule 13d) does not necessarily correspond to the number of Shares reflected below in the column “Number of Shares Being Offered.”

 

Notwithstanding the presentation of Share ownership in the table below, pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, a holder of a Warrant does not have the right to exercise any portion of the Warrant held by such holder to the extent (but only to the extent) that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, the holder (together with the holder’s affiliates, and any other persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of the holder’s affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The holder of a Warrant may, upon notice to the Company, increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation of its Warrant, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant held by the holder. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. No such increase notice has been provided to the Company as of the date of this prospectus.

 

The information set forth below is based upon information obtained from the Selling Stockholders and upon information in our possession regarding the issuance of the Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants to the Selling Stockholders. The percentages of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned before this offering are based on 36,070,534 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 29, 2023. The percentages of shares of our Common Stock owned after the offering are based on 36,155,709 shares of our Common Stock outstanding after this offering, including the 36,070,534 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 29, 2023 plus 85,175 Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants covered hereby.

The Shares covered hereby may be offered from time to time by the Selling Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders may sell some, all or none of their respective Shares. We do not know how long the Selling Stockholders will hold their Shares before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the Selling Stockholders regarding the sale or other disposition of any of the Shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants previously issued in the Offering and the Loan to permit the resale of these Shares by the holders thereof from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds, other than the nominal exercise price of the Warrants if paid in cash, from the sale by the Selling Stockholders of the Shares. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the Shares. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses attributable to the sale of Shares covered by this prospectus will be borne by the Selling Stockholders.

 

The Selling Stockholders, which shall include donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling Shares or interests in Shares received after the date of this prospectus from a Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their Shares or interests in Shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares of Common Stock of the Company are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

    on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;
    ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
    block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the Shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
    purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its own account;
    an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
    privately negotiated transactions;
    short sales;
    through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
    through agreements between broker-dealers and the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such Shares at a stipulated price per share;
    a combination of any such methods of sale; and
    any other method permitted by applicable law.

 

The Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the Shares, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the Shares in other circumstances, in which case the pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of the Shares or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of our Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into options or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to each such broker-dealer or other financial institution of Shares offered by this prospectus, which Shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of the Shares offered by them will be the purchase price of the Shares less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the Selling Stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with its agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of Shares to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Shares by the Selling Stockholders.

 

The Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the Shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

There can be no assurance that any Selling Stockholder will sell any or all of the Shares registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

The Selling Stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Shares or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the Shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling Stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the Shares to be sold, the names of the Selling Stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the Shares may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

To the extent applicable, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the Shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the Shares. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the Shares offered by this prospectus. Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the Shares will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

 

We have agreed with the Selling Stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the date that the Selling Stockholders are first given the opportunity to sell all of the Shares.
