Security and Issuer This statement relates to the Common Stock, par value $.0l per share (the "Common Stock"), of Emisphere Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), with principal executive offices at 15 Skyline Drive, Hawthorne, New York 10532. Item 2. Identity and Background This statement is filed by Sam J. Milstein, Ph.D. (the "Reporting Person"), a resident of New York with a business address at 15 Skyline Drive, Hawthorne, New York 10532. The Reporting Person is principally employed as President and Chief Scientific Officer of the Company. The Reporting Person (i) has not, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) and (ii) was not, during the last five years, a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. The Reporting Person is a citizen of the United States of America. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration The Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person consists of 7,093 shares held directly (the "Held Shares") and 547,757 shares (the "Option Shares") which the Reporting Person has the right to acquire within 60 days upon the exercise of stock options (the "Options") granted by the Company in connection with the Reporting Person's employment with the Company. The funds used to purchase the Held Shares were personal funds of the Reporting Person. The Held Shares were acquired at prices ranging from $1.50 to $7.375 per share upon exercise of stock options granted by the Company in connection with the Reporting Person's employment with the Company. The purchase prices to acquire the Option Shares upon exercise of the Options are (i) $8.00 per share with respect to 62,143 of the Option Shares, (ii) $8.00 per share with respect to 22,000 of the Option Shares, (iii) $8.00 per share with respect to 3,136 of the Option Shares, (iv) $12.375 per share with respect to 346,716 of the Option Shares, (v) $1.50 per share with respect to 2,139 of the Option Shares, (vi) $2.625 per share with respect to 1,222 of the Option Shares, (vii) $4.00 per share with respect to 401 of the Option Shares and (viii) $8.625 per share with respect to 110,000 of the Option Shares. It is anticipated that the source of funds to be used in making the purchase of the Option Shares, if the Options are in fact exercised, will be the personal funds of the Reporting Person, the proceeds from the sale of the Held Shares or the Option Shares or a combination of the foregoing. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction The Held Shares were acquired, and the Option Shares are beneficially owned, by the Reporting Person for investment purposes. The Options were acquired by the Reporting Person as compensation in connection with the Reporting Person's employment with the Company. Upon continued employment with the Company, an option (the "Unvested Option") to purchase additional shares of the Common Stock for $8.625 per share granted to the Reporting Person in connection with the Reporting Person's employment with the Company will become exercisable on August 1, 2005 with respect to 440,000 shares except that the Unvested Option will become earlier exercisable upon the occurrence of certain other events. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer (a) The aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person is 554,850, or 5.6% of the Common Stock outstanding, of which 547,757 are the Option Shares, which the Reporting Person has the right to acquire upon exercise of the Options. (b) The Reporting Person has the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of the Held Shares. Until and unless the Reporting Person exercises the Options, the Reporting Person will have no power to vote and no power to dispose of the Option Shares. (c) No transactions in the Common Stock have been effected during the past sixty days by the Reporting Person. (d) No person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any of the Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. (e) Not applicable. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer Pursuant to an Employment Agreement dated as of October 6, 1995 (the "Employment Agreement") between the Reporting Person and the Company, the Reporting Person is to serve as President and Chief Scientific Officer of the Company until July 31, 2000. In connection with the Employment Agreement and its predecessor employment agreements, the Company granted to the Reporting Person the Options and the Unvested Option. Pursuant to the terms of certain of the Options the Company is obligated to lend to the Reporting Person, on a nonrecourse basis, the income taxes he may be required to pay upon exercise thereof. Such loan is to be secured by the shares of the Common Stock so purchased and is to bear interest at the lowest possible rate to avoid imputation of interest for federal income tax purposes. Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits None SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct. /s/ Sam J. Milstein Dated: August 9, 1996 Sam J. Milstein, Ph.D. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
