Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
The information contained in Item 5.03 below is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On February 19, 2020 (the Effective Date), AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the Company) filed a Certificate of Amendment to the
Companys Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the Certificate of Amendment), which effected, as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Effective Date, a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (the Reverse Stock Split) of the Companys issued and outstanding common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the Common
Stock).
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every ten shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding was converted into one share of Common
Stock. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock are instead entitled to receive a proportional cash payment.
The Reverse Stock Split will proportionately reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the par value of
the Common Stock or the authorized number of shares of preferred stock of the Company. All outstanding stock options and warrants will be adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, as required by the terms of such stock options and warrants.
As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 13, 2020, at the Companys
Special Meeting of Stockholders held on February 13, 2020, the stockholders of the Company voted to approve the Certificate of Amendment. The Board of Directors of the Company approved and authorized the filing of the Certificate of Amendment
following its approval by the stockholders.
Trading of the Common Stock on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis will begin at the opening of trading on
February 20, 2020.
The summary of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
On
February 19, 2020, the Company issued a press release with respect to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
