Exchange Agreement Transactions

Prior to the IPO, certain of the Funds and Managed Accounts were lenders of a portion of the principal amount of a senior secured convertible term loan (the “Senior Loan”) made to the Issuer. More specifically, GN3 held $7,367,477 of the principal amount of the Senior Loan, G2T held $36,650,155 of the principal amount of the Senior Loan, GTNM held $1,385,366 of the principal amount of the Senior Loan, the First Managed Account held $3,026,128 of the principal amount of the Senior Loan and the Second Managed Account held $1,955,081 of the principal amount of the Senior Loan.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, dated June 8, 2016, by and among Kadmon Holdings, LLC, Kadmon Pharmaceuticals, LLC and each investor identified therein (the “Exchange Agreement”), upon the consummation of the IPO of the Issuer, the principal amount of the Senior Loan, as well as the make-whole fee owed to each lender under the Senior Loan, converted into shares of 5% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), of the Issuer and shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as follows: (i) a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Loan was converted into shares of Preferred Stock, of which each participating Fund and Managed Account received its pro rata portion as a lender under the Senior Loan; (ii) a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Loan was converted into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of $12.00, the price per share of Common Stock in the IPO, of which each participating Fund and Managed Account received its pro rata portion as a lender under the Senior Loan; and (iii) 125% of a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Loan was converted into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $12.00, the price per share of Common Stock in the IPO, of which each participating Fund and Managed Account received its pro rata portion as a lender under the Senior Loan. The make-whole amount has been delivered to the lenders under the Senior Loan in shares of Common Stock of the Issuer at a conversion price equal to 80% of $12.00, the price per share of Common Stock in the IPO, of which each participating Fund and Managed Account received its pro rata portion as a lender under the Senior Loan.

Each holder of shares of Preferred Stock is able to convert such shares into Common Stock at any time at the holder’s election beginning on the first date that such shares were issued and sold, which occurred on August 1, 2016, at a conversion price equal to $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock, the original purchase price, plus dividends, divided by $9.60 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. At any time following one year after the initial issuance date of such shares of Preferred Stock, which will be August 1, 2017, the Issuer may cause a mandatory conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock if the weighted average price per share of Common Stock has reached in excess of $18.00 for a period of 30 consecutive trading days and the Issuer has an effective resale shelf registration to resell shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. The shares of Preferred Stock do not have an expiration date.

The table below shows the total number of shares of Common Stock and shares of Preferred Stock received by the Funds and Managed Accounts, which were lenders under the Senior Loan, after the consummation of the IPO pursuant to the Exchange Agreement.

Warrants

Certain of the Funds and Managed Accounts hold warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Issuer that are exercisable as follows: (i) certain warrants are currently exercisable at a strike price of $10.20 per share of Common Stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, and will expire on June 17, 2023 (the “First Warrants”), and (ii) other warrants are currently exercisable at $10.20 per share of Common Stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, and will expire on August 28, 2022 (the “Second Warrants”, and together with the First Warrants, the “Warrants”). The First Warrants were originally purchased in three tranches with different terms, but pursuant to the third amended credit agreement of the Issuer dated November 26, 2014, the strike price of all tranches of the First Warrants was adjusted, resulting in the current strike price, which is $10.20 per share of Common Stock.

Registration Rights Agreements

On June 8, 2016, the First Managed Account, G2T, GTNM, GN3 and the Second Managed Account entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the predecessor of the Issuer, Kadmon Holdings, LLC, and certain other investors (the “First Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the First Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file, concurrently with the IPO, a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to cover the sale of shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the Exchange Agreement that are not subject to the Lock-Up Agreement (collectively, the “First Registrable Securities”). The Issuer agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to keep such registration statement continuously effective until the date that all of the First Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement have been sold and agreed to undertake to register the First Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as the Issuer is eligible to use such form, provided that the Issuer will maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement then in effect until such time as a registration statement on Form S-3 covering the First Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC.

The foregoing description of the First Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Registration Rights Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.6 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

On August 1, 2016, the First Managed Account, G2T, GTNM, GN3, the Second Managed Account and GTIF entered into a second Registration Rights Agreement with the Issuer and certain other investors (the “Second Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Second Registration Rights Agreement, parties to the Second Registration Rights Agreement that are holders of at least a majority of the shares of Common Stock (i) theretofore issued upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock or (ii) issuable upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding (the “Required Investors”) may request, after the Issuer is eligible to use Form S-3, that the Issuer file a shelf registration statement and use commercially reasonable efforts to have the shelf registration statement declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after its filing or at least within 60 days thereafter relating to the offer and sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired by the parties pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, (ii) any shares of Common Stock acquired by the parties upon a conversion of their shares of Preferred Stock and (iii) any other securities of the Issuer which may be issued or issuable with respect to, in exchange for, or in substitution of such securities (collectively, the “Second Registrable Securities”). In addition, the Issuer will be required to effectuate one underwritten takedown offering from the shelf registration statement within any six-month period if requested by the Required Investors or the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock that are signatories to the 2015 Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Second Registration Rights Agreement). The Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the shelf registration statement effective until there are no longer any Second Registrable Securities.


Further, pursuant to the Second Registration Rights Agreement, the Required Investors may demand at any time following 180 days after the effective date of the Second Registration Rights Agreement, that the Issuer effect the registration of all or any portion of the Second Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the above, the Required Investors may not make any demand for registration: (i) unless the aggregate proceeds from such demand registration are expected to equal or exceed $15 million, or (ii) during any period beginning on the date that the Issuer files a registration statement for Common Stock (for its own account or for any other security holder) and ending on the earlier of: (A) 90 days after such registration statement is effective, (B) upon the withdrawal of such registration statement or (C) 30 days after the Issuer provides notice of its intent to file a registration statement if no such registration statement has been filed within such 30-day period. The Issuer may limit the Second Registrable Securities included in an underwritten offering if any of the lead underwriters advises the Issuer that it believes the inclusion of all such Second Registrable Securities in the offering would have an adverse effect on the offering.

Pursuant to the Second Registration Rights Agreement, if the Issuer at any time proposes to register an offering of any of its securities and such registration may be used to sell any Second Registrable Securities, the Issuer will give the investors covered by the Second Registration Rights Agreement the opportunity to include such Second Registrable Securities in the offering. If any such investors make a written request to participate in such registration within five business days after receiving the Issuer’s notice, the Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to include the Second Registrable Securities of such investors in the offering, subject to cutbacks specified in the Second Registration Rights Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Second Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Second Registration Rights Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.7 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons continuously assess the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic conditions, other developments and additional investment opportunities. Depending on such assessments, the Reporting Persons may acquire additional securities of the Issuer or new securities of the Issuer, engage in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Issuer’s securities, or may determine to sell or otherwise dispose of all or some of the Issuer’s securities in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, in transactions directly with the Issuer or otherwise. Such actions will depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer, alternative investment opportunities, general economic, financial market and industry conditions and other factors that the Reporting Persons may deem material to their investment decision.

In addition, the Reporting Persons may hold discussions with third parties or with management of the Issuer in which the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management or capital structure of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value. Such suggestions or positions may relate to one or more of the transactions specified in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including, without limitation, such matters as the acquisition or disposition by the Reporting Persons or other persons of securities of the Issuer, acquiring another company or business, changing operating or marketing strategies, adopting or not adopting certain types of anti-takeover measures and restructuring the Issuer’s capitalization.

Except as set forth herein, the Reporting Persons do not have present plans or proposals at this time that relate to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Each of the Reporting Persons may, at any time, review or reconsider its position with respect to the Issuer and formulate plans or proposals with respect to any of such matters.
