This Amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) relates to the Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Reata Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) and amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by Mr. Rose on June 6, 2016, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed on August 19, 2016, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed on December 7, 2016, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed on January 3, 2017, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D filed on March 3, 2017, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D filed on July 12, 2017, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D filed on August 2, 2017, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13D filed on December 8, 2017 (as amended, the “Prior Schedule 13D”). Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment, all items left blank remain unchanged in all material respects and any items that are reported are deemed to amend and restate the corresponding items in the Prior Schedule 13D. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Prior Schedule 13D.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

Item 3 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

As of July 27, 2018, certain stock options previously granted to Mr. Rose pursuant to the Issuer’s Amended and Restated 2007 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2007 LTIP”) representing, upon their exercise, the right to acquire a total of 19,176 shares of Class B Common Stock, are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof. These stock options were granted to Mr. Rose, in connection with his service on the Board of Directors of the Issuer.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Item 4 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

On July 27, 2018, the Issuer reported that it had closed the sale of a total of 3,450,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock pursuant to an underwriting agreement, resulting in a total of 23,710,390 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding. As a result of that closing, the percentage ownership of the Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by certain of the Reporting Persons has decreased by an amount equal to or greater than 1%.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF ISSUER.

Item 5 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The information set forth in Item 2, Item 3 and Item 6 is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

 

  (a) (1) Mr. Rose may be deemed to beneficially own 3,194,724 shares of Class A Common Stock, representing approximately 12.4% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.
