Title of Securities: |
Common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Issuer (Common Stock) |

49,751,244 shares of Common Stock (or 57,213,931 shares of Common Stock if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full). |
Last Reported Sale Price of Common Stock on The NASDAQ Global Select Market on November 20, 2014: |

Use of Proceeds: |
The net proceeds of this offering, excluding the Private Placement and Notes offering, each as defined below, are estimated to be approximately $46.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses
(or approximately $53.9 million if the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares). |
|
The Issuer currently intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with the net proceeds, if any, from the Notes Offering and the Private Placement, for the clinical development of its drug candidates and
its other nonclinical research and development efforts. The Issuer may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in complementary products and technologies or for general corporate purposes. |
Concurrent Convertible Notes Offering: |
Concurrently with this offering, the Issuer is offering $80,000,000 principal amount of its 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the Notes) (or a total of $95,000,000 principal amount if the initial purchasers in that offering
exercise in full their over-allotment option) in a separate private offering to qualified institutional buyers. The Notes will be convertible into an aggregate of 66,334,991 shares of Common Stock (or 78,772,802 shares of Common Stock if the initial
purchasers in that offering exercise in full their over-allotment option), which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $1.206 per share and an initial conversion rate of 829.1874 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount
of Notes (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances). The Issuer estimates that the net |
proceeds from its concurrent private offering of the Notes will be approximately $77.0 million,
or $91.5 million if the initial purchasers over-allotment option is exercised in full. The Notes and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended

the Issuer will agree to issue to Artal on the closing date of this offering an aggregate of 149,253,731 shares of the Issuers common stock at $1.005 per share, the price per share to the public in this offering (the Private
Placement) for total gross proceeds of $150.0 million. |
Common stock to be outstanding after the Common Stock Offering and the Private Placement: |
713,839,502 shares (or 721,302,189 shares if the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares), excluding the shares underlying the Notes. |
|
After the Common Stock Offering and the Private Placement, Invus and its affiliates will hold approximately 60.58% of the outstanding shares of the Issuers common stock (or 59.95% of the outstanding shares of the Issuers common stock
if the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares). |
Payment to Symphony |
The $23 million upfront payment the Issuer received from Ipsen Pharma SAS triggers the Issuers obligation to pay Symphony Icon Holdings LLC approximately $11.5 million in December 2014. The Issuer has the option of paying up to 50% of
this payment to Symphony in shares of the Issuers common stock. Although the Issuer has not made a determination of whether to issue shares in respect of the payment, the terms of the underwriting agreement for this offering permit the
Issuer to do so and to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the resale of these shares prior to the issuance of such shares. |
