CUSIP No. 171077407 | SCHEDULE 13D | Page 6 of 10 Pages |
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Schedule 13D (the Statement) is filed (i) to amend and restate the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 19, 2011 (the Original 13D), as amended on August 29, 2011, July 12, 2012, January 3, 2014, July 27, 2016, September 14, 2016, August 17, 2017, December 29, 2017 and February 14, 2019 filed by Phillip Frost, M.D., Frost Gamma Investments Trust (FGIT) and Phillip and Patricia Frost Philanthropic Foundation, Inc. (Philanthropic Foundation) and (ii) by OPKO Health, Inc. (OPKO, together with Dr. Frost, FGIT and Philanthropic Foundation, the Reporting Persons).
On September 7, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) filed a civil complaint in the Southern District of New York (the Complaint), against a number of individuals and entities, including OPKO and its CEO and Chairman, Dr. Frost.
In December 2018, OPKO, Dr. Frost and FGIT entered into settlements with the SEC, which, upon approval by the court in January 2019, resolved the claims against OPKO, Dr. Frost and FGIT. Pursuant to the settlement between OPKO and the SEC, and without admitting or denying any of the allegations of the Complaint, OPKO agreed to be enjoined from future violations of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), a claim that requires no showing of scienter, and to pay a civil monetary penalty, which has been paid. OPKO also agreed, within certain stipulated time periods, to: (i) establish a Management Investment Committee (MIC) that will make recommendations to an Independent Investment Committee (IIC) of OPKOs board of directors in connection with existing and future strategic minority investments; and (ii) retain an Independent Compliance Consultant (ICC) on a time-limited basis to, among other things, advise OPKO on whether filings pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act for previous strategic minority investments made at the suggestion of or in tandem with Dr. Frost and his related persons or entities should be made or amended to reflect group membership with Dr. Frost.
Under the terms of the settlement between the SEC, Dr. Frost and FGIT, and without admitting or denying any of the allegations in the Complaint, Dr. Frost agreed to injunctions from violations of Sections 5(a) and (c) and 17(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, claims which may be satisfied by strict liability and negligence, respectively, and Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, also a strict liability claim; to pay a civil monetary penalty, disgorgement and pre-judgment interest, which have been paid; and to be prohibited, with certain exceptions, from trading in penny stocks.
The ICC has concluded his work, determined that certain prior investments in the Issuer by OPKO and Dr. Frost should have been grouped under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and recommended the filing of this form.
OPKO has now established the MIC and IIC, and following the establishment of these committees, any group between OPKO, Dr. Frost and his affiliated entities with respect to investments in the Issuer has ceased to exist.
