About Repros Therapeutics Inc.

 

Repros Therapeutics Inc. (the "Company," "Repros," or "we," "us" or "our") was organized on August 20, 1987.  We are a development stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of new drugs to treat hormonal and reproductive system disorders. Both of our product candidates have exhibited strong efficacy results in every study completed to date, and we believe the studies presently underway or scheduled to start in 2012 will place both programs on a clear late stage clinical development path.

 

We are developing Androxal®, an oral therapy that normalizes testicular function, for the treatment of low testosterone due to secondary hypogonadism. Secondary hypogonadism is associated with obesity and we believe it is among the most common causes of low testosterone in men. It is estimated that 13 million men in the U.S. experience low levels of testosterone, and the condition is becoming recognized with more frequency.  In 2010, for the first time, sales of preparations for the treatment of low testosterone exceeded $1 billion in the U.S. and first tier pharmaceutical companies have entered the low testosterone marketplace.

 

The Company believes Androxal® is highly differentiated from currently marketed testosterone treatments or those treatments in late stage development because it is an oral therapy and it treats the cause of secondary hypogonadism, which is inadequate pituitary hormones. We believe that by treating the cause of secondary hypogonadism Androxal® also has the potential to maintain reproductive status and potentially improve overall metabolic profiles, which we believe may improve the condition of men suffering from Type 2 diabetes.

 

We have recently completed a Phase 2B study of Androxal® in men with secondary hypogonadism, but naïve to testosterone treatment, at the Food and Drug Administration’s (the “FDA”) recommendation. We have since announced top line results of this study that Androxal® was generally well tolerated compared to placebo and there were no drug related serious adverse events that led to discontinuation. We plan to request a Type B meeting in 2012 with the FDA to finalize Phase 3 study design and receive confirmation of the studies to be included in the drug dossier for a New Drug Application submission once the final clinical study reports have been completed. Following such meeting, we plan to proceed with Phase 3 studies conducted under a Special Protocol Assessment.

 

We are also developing Proellex®, an orally administered selective blocker of the progesterone receptor in women, for the treatment of uterine fibroids and endometriosis. Uterine fibroids and endometriosis affect millions of women of reproductive age.  Proellex® had shown statistically significant results in previous Phase 2 studies for endometriosis and uterine fibroids.  We have recently completed a low dose escalating study as permitted by the FDA, which was intended to determine both signals of efficacy and safety for low oral doses of the drug.   We recently announced that there was no evidence of elevations of liver enzymes over baseline, suggesting these lower doses avoid the type of adverse events seen at much higher doses in earlier studies. The FDA has since accepted an Investigational New Drug Application for vaginally delivered Proellex® and, as a result, we plan to commence a Phase 1/2 vaginal administration study for uterine fibroids in the first quarter of 2012. Additionally, we plan to request a Type B meeting with the FDA on completion of the final clinical study report. Based on the present data and the strong efficacy signal in its previous Phase 2 studies, we hope to re-enter Phase 3 with low dose oral Proellex®. We believe a Type B meeting can be scheduled with the FDA during the second quarter of 2012. Following such meeting, we intend to commence a Phase 3 oral administration study for endometriosis in the third quarter of 2012 and, pending the outcome of our planned Phase 1/2 vaginal administration study for uterine fibroids, we intend to commence a Phase 3 vaginal administration study for uterine fibroids in the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

As of September 30, 2011, we had accumulated losses of $189.0 million, approximately $7.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, and our accounts payable and accrued expenses were approximately $2.0 million.  Assuming successful completion of this offering, we believe we will have sufficient funding to conduct the Phase 1/2, 2, 2B and 3 clinical trials either currently underway or planned to commence in 2012 through sometime in the second quarter of 2013; however, significant additional capital will be required for us to complete development of either of our product candidates. We continue to explore potential additional financing alternatives (including corporate partnering opportunities) that would provide sufficient funds to enable us to continue to develop our two product candidates through completion of all necessary clinical trials; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising any such additional funds on a timely basis or at all.  The foregoing matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Recent Developments

 

Effective December 30, 2011, the Company and its President and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph S. Podolski, entered into a Fifth Amendment (the “Fifth Amendment”) to the Employment Agreement dated January 1, 1993 by and between the Company and Mr. Podolski. The Fifth Amendment provides that the term of the agreement shall be extended until May 31, 2014.

On October 27, 2011, our board of directors increased the size of the board of directors from five to six members and elected Dr. Michael Wyllie as a director of the Company to fill the vacancy created by such increase.  In connection with Dr. Wyllie’s election to the board of directors, he was granted an option to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price per share for the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the date of such election.  Such option will vest and become exercisable at a rate of one-twelfth (1/12) at the end of each quarter for the three (3) year period following the date of Dr. Wyllie’s election to the board of directors, based on continuing service to the Company.

Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and all other information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompany prospectus, including the risk factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and our other public filings, before making an investment decision. You should also refer to the other information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including our financial statements and the related notes incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus. The risks and uncertainties described in these sections and documents are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer. In that event the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the incorporated documents also include forward-looking statements and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements, including the risks mentioned above.

Risks Relating to Our Business

 

Assuming completion of this offering, our ability to continue as a going concern may require that we raise additional funds no later than the second quarter of 2013, without which we may need to cease our business operations and begin liquidation proceedings.

 

Assuming completion of this offering, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing no later than the second quarter of 2013 based upon our current expense and revenue assumptions.  If our expenses are greater than expected or our revenues are less than expected, we may be required to raise additional funds prior to that time.  We will continue to explore various financing alternatives to address our liquidity needs.  No assurance can be given that we will be successful in obtaining additional financing after this offering on acceptable terms or at all.  We anticipate that if we are able to secure additional financing, that such financing will result in significant dilution of the ownership interests of our stockholders and may provide certain rights to the new investors senior to the rights of purchasers of securities in this offering, including but not limited to, voting rights and rights to proceeds in the event of a sale or liquidation of the Company.  We expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future, and we may never achieve or sustain profitability.  In the event that we are unable to obtain adequate financing to conduct operations, we may need to cease our business operations and begin liquidation proceedings.  If we need to liquidate our assets, we would likely realize significantly less from them than the values at which they are carried on our financial statements. The funds resulting from the liquidation of our assets would be used first to pay off the debt owed to any secured and unsecured creditors before any funds would be available to pay our stockholders, and any shortfall in the proceeds would directly reduce the amounts available for distribution, if any, to our creditors and to our stockholders. In the event we were required to liquidate, it is highly unlikely that stockholders would receive any value for their shares.

 

We have a history of operating losses, and we expect to incur increasing net losses and may not achieve or maintain profitability for some time or at all.

 

We have experienced significant operating losses in each fiscal year since our inception.  As of September 30, 2011, we had accumulated losses of $189.0 million, approximately $7.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, and our accounts payable and accrued expenses were approximately $2.0 million.  We expect to continue incurring net losses and we may not achieve or maintain profitability for some time if at all.  As we increase expenditures for the clinical development of our products, we expect our total operating losses to increase for at least the next few years.  Our ability to achieve profitability will depend on, among other things, successfully completing the development of our products, obtaining regulatory approvals, establishing marketing, sales and manufacturing capabilities or collaborative arrangements with others that possess such capabilities, and raising sufficient funds to finance our activities.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitability or that profitability, if achieved, can be sustained.  

 

Risks Related to this Offering and our Common Stock

 

We will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.

 

We will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could allocate the net proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common stock.  Our failure to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, delay the development of our product candidates and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

 

 

S-5
 

Purchasers in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

 

As of September 30, 2011, we had a net tangible book value of $5.2 million, which yields a net tangible book value of approximately $0.42 per share of common stock, assuming no exercise of any warrants or options.  The net tangible book value per share is less than the current market price per share.  If you pay more than the net tangible book value per share for common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate dilution.  See the section titled “Dilution” on page S-12 of this prospectus supplement.  The exercise of outstanding options and warrants will result in further dilution in your investment.  In addition, if we issue additional equity securities in the future, the newly issued securities may further dilute your ownership interest.

 

The trading price of our common stock has been volatile and is likely to be volatile in the future.

 

The trading price of our common stock has been highly volatile. Since January 1, 2009 through January 26, 2012, the sale price of our stock price has fluctuated from a low of $1.11 to a high of $55.76. The market price for our common stock will be affected by a number of factors, including:

 

Ÿ the denial or delay of regulatory clearances or approvals of our drug candidates or receipt of regulatory approval of competing products;

 

Ÿ our ability to accomplish clinical, regulatory and other product development milestones;

 

Ÿ the ability of our product candidates, if they receive regulatory approval, to achieve market success;

 

Ÿ the performance of third-party manufacturers and suppliers;

 

Ÿ actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations or those of our competitors;

 

Ÿ developments with respect to patents and other intellectual property rights;

 

Ÿ sales of common stock or other securities by us or our stockholders in the future;

 

Ÿ additions or departures of key scientific or management personnel;

 

Ÿ disputes or other developments relating to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain patent protection for our products;

 

Ÿ trading volume of our common stock;

 

Ÿ investor perceptions about us and our industry;

 

Ÿ public reaction to our press releases, other public announcements and SEC and other filings;

 

Ÿ the failure of analysts to cover our common stock, or changes in analysts’ estimates or recommendations;

 

Ÿ the failure by us or our competitors to meet analysts’ projections or guidance;

 

Ÿ general market conditions and other factors unrelated to our operating performance or the operating performance of our competitors; and

 

Ÿ the other factors described elsewhere in these “Risk Factors” or the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and our other public filings.

 

The stock prices of many companies in the biotechnology industry have experienced wide fluctuations that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. Following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation often has been initiated against a company.  If any class action litigation is initiated against us, we may incur substantial costs and our management’s attention may be diverted from our operations, which could significantly harm our business.

 

 

S-6
 

 

 

Our inability to comply with the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market could result in our common stock being delisted, which could affect its market price and liquidity and reduce our ability to raise capital.

 

We are required to meet certain qualitative and financial tests (including a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for our common stock) to maintain the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If we do not maintain compliance with the continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market within specified periods and subject to permitted extensions, our common stock may be recommended for delisting (subject to any appeal we would file). If our common stock were delisted, it could be more difficult to buy or sell our common stock and to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of our common stock could suffer a material decline. Delisting would also impair our ability to raise capital.

Forward-Looking Statements

Some of the statements contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or incorporated herein by reference into this prospectus supplement are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are subject to the safe harbor created by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

While forward-looking statements made by us are based on our current intent, belief, judgment, assumptions, estimates and projections and are believed by us to be reasonable, they are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results, performance or achievements to vary materially from the forward-looking statements, including the following risks and uncertainties:

 

  Ÿ our ability to continue as a going concern and to raise additional capital, as necessary, on acceptable terms or at all;

 

  Ÿ having available funding for the continued development of Proellex® and Androxal®;

  

  Ÿ the success of the clinical trials for Proellex® and Androxal®;

 

  Ÿ the removal of the current partial clinical hold on further clinical trials for Proellex® by the FDA and the re-establishment of safe dosing in clinical trials for Proellex®;

 

  Ÿ changes in regulations and the adoption of new regulations;

 

  Ÿ delays in conducting or completing clinical trials and the results of our clinical trials;

 

  Ÿ uncertainty related to our ability to obtain approval of our products by the FDA and regulatory bodies in other jurisdictions;

 

  Ÿ uncertainty relating to certain of our patents, future patent and other intellectual property infringement claims by third parties and our inability to protect our intellectual property;

 

  Ÿ market acceptance of our products and the estimated potential size of these markets;

 

  Ÿ dependence on third parties for clinical development and manufacturing;

 

  Ÿ dependence on a limited number of key employees;

 

  Ÿ competition and risk of competitive new products;

 

  Ÿ volatility in the value of our common stock;

 

  Ÿ volatility in the financial markets generally; and

 

  Ÿ the other risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement or the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and our other public filings.

 

You should consider the risks above carefully in addition to other information contained in this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus before purchasing our common stock. If any of these risks occur, they could seriously harm our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors will emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Past financial or operating performance is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future performance and you should not use our historical performance to anticipate results or future period trends.

 

Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including continuing our clinical trials for Androxal® and Proellex®.  Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds of this offering.

 

Until we use the net proceeds of this offering, we intend to invest the funds in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing securities.

Dividend Policy

 

General

 

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock.  We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, for use in our business and therefore do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including our financial condition, operating results, current and anticipated cash needs.

 

Rights Plan

 

We are party to a rights agreement, as amended, pursuant to which a dividend consisting of one preferred stock purchase right was distributed for each share of our common stock held as of the close of business on September 13, 1999, and to each share of common stock issued thereafter until the earlier of (i) the distribution date which is defined in the rights plan, (ii) the redemption date which is defined in the rights plan or (iii) September 13, 2015.  The rights plan is designed to deter coercive takeover tactics and to prevent an acquirer from gaining control of us without offering fair value to our stockholders. The rights will expire on September 13, 2015, subject to earlier redemption or exchange as provided in the rights plan. Each right entitles its holder to purchase from us one one-hundredth of a share of a new series of Series One Junior Participating Preferred Stock at a price of $20.00 per one one-hundredth of a share, subject to adjustment. The rights are generally exercisable only if a person acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of our outstanding common stock.

A complete description of the rights, the rights plan with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent, and the Series One Junior Participating Preferred Stock is hereby incorporated by reference from the information appearing under the caption "Item 1. Description of the Registrant's Securities to be Registered" contained in the Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed on September 3, 1999, and as amended by amendments to such Registration Statement on Form 8-A/A filed on September 11, 2002, October 31, 2002, June 30, 2005, January 10, 2008, October 10, 2008 and September 9, 2010.

Dilution

Our unaudited net tangible book value as of September 30, 2011 was approximately $5.2 million, or approximately $0.42 per share of common stock.  Net tangible book value per share represents total assets minus capitalized patent costs and total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after the offering.

 

After giving effect to the sale of 2,463,537 shares of common stock to be sold  in this offering at the offering price of $4.50 per share, and after deduction of placement agent fees and offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 2011 would have been approximately $15.5 million, or $1.05 per share.  The adjustments made to determine pro forma net tangible book value per share are the following:

 

  § An increase in total assets to reflect the net proceeds of the offering as described under “Use of Proceeds”; and

 

  § The addition of the number of shares of common stock offered under this prospectus supplement to the number of shares outstanding.

 

The following table illustrates the pro forma increase in net tangible book value attributable to existing stockholders of $0.63 per share and the dilution (the difference between the offering price per share and net tangible book value per share) to new investors:

 

Offering price per share   $ 4.50  
Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2011 $    0.42      
Increase in net tangible book value attributable to this offering       0.63      
Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2011, after giving effect to this offering     1.05   
Dilution per share to new investors of this offering   $ 3.45  
         

The number of shares in the table above excludes as of September 30, 2011:

 

  · 1,821,025 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options at a weighted average exercise price of $7.03 per share;

 

  · 755,841 shares of common stock available for future issuance under our stock option plans;

 

  · 3,439,770 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of our warrants, 1,690,500 of which are exercisable for $2.49 per share and 1,749,270 of which are exercisable for $0.01 per share; or

   

  · 40,752 shares of common stock sold by the Company since September 30, 2011 pursuant to the terms of that certain Equity Distribution Agreement dated February 12, 2010 by and between the Company and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. at a weighted average exercise price of $5.00 per share.

Plan of Distribution

We are offering shares of our common stock through a placement agent pursuant to this prospectus supplement. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in the placement agency agreement, dated January 26, 2012, Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. has agreed to act as the placement agent for the sale of up to 2,463,538 shares of our common stock. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the shares of common stock in this offering, nor is it required to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of common stock, but has agreed that it will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of all 2,463,538 shares of common stock offered.

The placement agency agreement provides that the obligations of the placement agent and the investors are subject to certain conditions precedent, including the absence of any material adverse change in our business and the receipt of customary legal opinions, letters and certificates.

Confirmations and definitive prospectuses will be distributed to all investors who agree to purchase shares of our common stock, informing investors of the closing date as to such shares of our common stock. We currently anticipate that closing of the sale of 2,463,537 shares of our common stock will take place on or about February 1, 2012, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Investors will also be informed of the date and manner in which they must transmit the purchase price for their shares of common stock.

On the scheduled closing date, the following will occur:

· we will receive funds in the amount of the aggregate purchase price;

· Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. will receive the placement agent’s fee in accordance with the terms of the placement agency agreement; and

· we will deliver the shares of common stock to the investors.

We will pay the placement agent an aggregate commission equal to six percent (6.0%) of the gross proceeds of the sale of our common stock in this offering. We will also reimburse the placement agent for actual expenses of its legal counsel incurred in connection with this offering in an amount not to exceed $50,000. In no event will the total amount of compensation paid to the placement agent or any other member of FINRA or independent broker-dealer upon completion of this offering exceed 8% of the gross proceeds of the offering. The estimated offering expenses payable by us, in addition to (x) the placement agent’s fee of $665,155 and (y) reimbursement of the actual expenses of the placement agent’s legal counsel as described above, are approximately $75,000, which includes legal, accounting and printing costs and various other fees associated with registering and listing the common stock. After deducting certain fees due to the placement agent and our estimated offering expenses, we expect the net proceeds from this offering to be approximately $10.3 million.

The following table shows the per share and total fees we will pay to the placement agent in connection with the sale of the common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

   Per Share  Total
Placement agent’s fee  $0.27   $665,155 

 

Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual total offering fees, if any, are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amount set forth above.

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and liabilities arising from breaches of representations and warranties contained in the placement agency agreement. We have also agreed to contribute to payments the placement agent may be required to make in respect of such liabilities.

The placement agency agreement is included as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K that we have filed with the SEC in connection with this offering.

The transfer agent for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “RPRX.”

_______________

ABOUT REPROS THERAPEUTICS INC.

Overview

The Company was organized as a Delaware corporation on August 20, 1987. We are a development stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of oral small molecule drugs for major unmet medical needs associated with male and female reproductive disorders. The clinical trials relating to Proellex® have been placed on clinical hold by the FDA due to safety-related concerns resulting from elevated liver enzymes in a number of patients enrolled in the clinical trials. Completion of our ongoing clinical trial activities relating to our other product candidate, Androxal®, is subject to, among other things, adequate cash being available.

 

As of September 30, 2009, we had accumulated losses of $173.1 million, approximately $2.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, and our accounts payable and accrued expenses were approximately $12.2 million. As a result of the October 29, 2009 settlement agreement with certain of our creditors to issue them shares of our common stock and cash as payment in full for our then-outstanding liabilities with such creditors (See “Recent Developments – Settlement with Trade Creditors” below), subsequent to September 30, 2009, we have reduced the amount of our accounts payable and accrued expenses by approximately $8.7 million. Notwithstanding, the amount of cash on hand is not sufficient to continue to fund our ongoing clinical trials of Androxal®, complete all necessary activities relating to the suspension of our clinical trial program for Proellex®, and pay our accounts payable and accrued expenses as well as our normal corporate overhead and expenses. The foregoing and other matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We continue to explore potential additional financing alternatives that may allow us to maintain our current reduced level of operations; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising any such additional funds on a timely basis or at all. Significant additional capital will be required for us to continue development of either of our product candidates. Failure to raise sufficient funds before the second quarter of 2010 will likely result in the filing of bankruptcy and dissolution of the Company.

 

Our current product candidates consist of the following:

 

Androxal® (male reproductive health)

 

We believe our product candidate for male reproductive health, Androxal®, is a new chemical entity. Androxal® is a single isomer of clomiphene citrate and is an orally active proprietary small molecule compound.

 

We are developing Androxal® for men of reproductive age with low testosterone levels who want to maintain their fertility while being treated for their low testosterone condition. During the second quarter of 2008, we initiated a Phase 2b proof-of-concept clinical trial in which we are monitoring the effects of Androxal® on male fertility and testicular function in patients being treated for low testosterone as compared to Testim®, a popular marketed topical testosterone medication. On October 6, 2009 we announced that Androxal was able to maintain sperm counts in men being treated for their low testosterone levels. Testim® resulted in suppressed sperm levels while men were being treated with that topical gel. We recently submitted a request for a Type C meeting with the FDA and expect to hold a meeting with the FDA in late January, 2010, provided that sufficient funds can be raised to continue development of this product. Given that there is currently an acceptable treatment regimen for men with low testosterone, there is significant uncertainty as to whether or not an additional approach such as Androxal® would be approved by the FDA or accepted in the market. At this time it is too early in the clinical development process to estimate when or even if an NDA for Androxal® will be submitted for this indication.

 
 

 

In April 2008, we submitted a White Paper, based on the results from a previously conducted non-pivotal Phase 2 clinical trial with Androxal® for the treatment of testosterone deficiency due to secondary hypogonadism, to the FDA's Division of Reproductive and Urology Products. The data demonstrated that in subjects with serum glucose levels of greater than 105 mg/dL, there was a statistically significant reduction in fasting serum glucose and a higher response rate in the treatment group with Androxal® as compared with groups receiving either placebo or Androgel®, the current standard of care for the treatment of testosterone deficiency. In November 2008, after the FDA reviewed this paper we received guidance suggesting that we open a new IND with the Division of Metabolic and Endocrine Products, or DMEP, for the investigation of Androxal® as a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes. Provided that sufficient cash is available, we plan to submit a new IND for this indication to the DMEP in the fourth quarter of 2009. Should we raise adequate funds to continue our operations, we anticipate conducting a Phase 2b proof-of-concept clinical trial with Androxal® for glucose regulation after receiving additional feedback from the FDA. At this time it is too early in the clinical development process to estimate when or even if a NDA for Androxal® will be submitted for this indication. The plan to develop Androxal® in this new indication replaces our previously announced plan to develop Androxal® in men with adult-onset idiopathic hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism, or AIHH, with concomitant plasma glucose and lipid elevations, all of which are components of Metabolic Syndrome.

We were previously developing Androxal® in the United States to treat testosterone deficiency due to secondary hypogonadism by restoring normal testosterone production in males with functional testes and diminished pituitary function, a common condition in the aging male. After a Type "C" meeting held with the FDA on October 15, 2007, we believed that there was no clear clinical path to develop Androxal® for this indication in the U.S. Androxal® might be developed outside of the U.S. for this indication if our future financial resources are sufficient.

Proellex® (female reproductive health)

Proellex®, our product candidate for female reproductive health, is a new chemical entity that acts as a selective blocker of the progesterone receptor and is being developed for the treatment of symptoms associated with uterine fibroids and endometriosis.  However, as a result of the recent liver toxicity exhibited by Proellex®, all ongoing clinical trial activities have been put on hold by the FDA.  There is currently no FDA-approved orally administered drug treatment for the long-term treatment of uterine fibroids or endometriosis.

Our estimates regarding the timing of our Proellex® clinical development program are completely on hold at this time in light of the FDA clinical hold and our recent discontinuation of ongoing clinical trials. In addition, any future development efforts are totally dependent on our ability to raise sufficient capital or find an appropriate partner to proceed and on decisions by the FDA regarding the current clinical hold on Proellex® clinical trials. If the FDA were to lift the clinical hold on Proellex®, and if the FDA requires a lower dosage of Proellex® to be used for future clinical trials, the Company would be required to commence Phase 2 studies again with the required lower dosage, thereby resulting in extensive additional costs and delays. The length of time required to complete Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials and long-term Open Label Safety Trials may vary substantially according to factors relating to the particular trial, such as the type and intended use of the drug candidate, the clinical, trial design and the ability to enroll suitable patients. We have also, in the past, had difficulty recruiting patients into our Proellex® clinical trials primarily due to the various test procedures that are required, including multiple endometrial biopsies. Recruiting patients would likely be even more difficult due to the recent liver toxicity exhibited by Proellex®.

Business Strategy

Provided we are able to obtain sufficient funds to continue our business, we plan to focus our clinical program on Androxal® to determine if a clear clinical path can be realized with the FDA.

Should the FDA permit the resumption of the Proellex® clinical trials, we will assess whether there are sufficient funds available to continue development ourselves of such product candidate or whether such program would be more appropriately funded by a corporate partner. Therefore, we will continue to explore corporate partnering opportunities for assistance in the clinical development funding and commercialization of our products, as appropriate; however, there can be no assurance that a corporate partnering opportunity will be found.

Risks Affecting Us

Our business is subject to numerous risks as discussed more fully in “Risk Factors” below. We are exploring various financing alternatives to address our short term liquidity needs. No assurance can be given that we will be successful in obtaining financing on acceptable terms or at all. We anticipate that if we are able to secure financing, that such financing will result in significant dilution of the ownership interests of our current stockholders and may provide certain rights to the new investors senior to the rights of our current stockholders, including but not limited to voting rights and rights to proceeds in the event of a sale or liquidation of the Company. In the event that we are unable to obtain adequate financing to meet our short term liquidity needs, we will pursue other options, including but not limited to, reductions of expenses, sale of the Company, sale or license of a portion or all of our assets, a bankruptcy filing or the liquidation of the Company.

In addition, we have recently suspended dosing in the clinical trials of Proellex®, have not received regulatory approval for any of our product candidates, have not successfully earned any significant commercial revenues from any of our product candidates and may never launch either of our product candidates. If we cannot resume dosing in the clinical trials of Proellex® or do not successfully commercialize any of our product candidates, we will be unable to achieve our business objectives. In addition, the reported results of our clinical trials completed to date may not be indicative of results that will be achieved in later-stage clinical trials involving larger and more diverse patient populations. As of September 30, 2009, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $173.1 million, accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $12.2 million and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.5 million. As a result of the October 29, 2009 settlement agreement with certain of our creditors to issue them shares of our common stock and cash as payment in full for our then-outstanding liabilities with such creditors (as described below) we have reduced the amount of our accounts payable and accrued expenses by approximately $8.7 million. Notwithstanding, there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and we expect to continue to incur significant losses over the next several years, and we may never become profitable. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Recent Developments

 

General

 

On September 11, 2009, we completed a direct registered offering of 1.5 million shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.65 per share for aggregate proceeds after expenses of approximately $869,000. On October 13, 2009, we completed a direct registered offering of 3.5 million shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $1.27 per share for aggregate proceeds after expenses of approximately $4.1 million. Such registered direct offerings resulted in an aggregate of approximately $5.0 million net proceeds to us. The shares of common stock offered by us in such offerings were registered under our prior shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-155265), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2008 and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 26, 2008.

On October 29, 2009, Katherine A. Anderson was engaged as the Chief Accounting Officer of the Company.

Effective October 29, 2009, Dr. Paul Lammers, resigned his position of President.

Effective October 30, 2009, the Company eliminated the position of Senior Vice President of Regulatory and Clinical Affairs held by Dr. Andre van As. The Company is obligated to pay Dr. van As, under his employment contract, salary and benefits for six months. Dr. Jean Fourcroy, member of the Company’s Board of Directors and former Medical Officer at the FDA’s Division of Reproductive and Urological Products, has agreed to serve as Company’s Chief Medical Officer on an as needed basis.

On November 6, 2009, the Company received notification from the NASDAQ Stock Market that it has not regained compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(A) or 5450(b)(3)(A) and, as a result, its securities will be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Market.  Pursuant to the NASDAQ procedural rules, the Company appealed such determination and on December 3, 2009, an oral hearing was held to determine whether its securities will continue to be listed on the NASDAQ Global Market. At such hearing, the Company requested that its securities be moved to the NASDAQ Capital Market if the appeal is not successful. On December 15, 2009, the Company received another notification from the NASDAQ Stock Market that it has not regained compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(C), which further subjects the Company’s securities to delisting from the NASDAQ Stock Market as a result of the market value of its publicly-held shares being below $15 million. The Company previously addressed the deficiency associated with such Listing Rule in its December 3rd oral hearing and is awaiting the decision from NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel regarding such deficiency. There can be no assurance that our appeal will be successful to remain on the NASDAQ Global Market or that the Company will be allowed to move its securities to the NASDAQ Capital Market.

On December 15, 2009, the Company also received notice from NASDAQ that its securities did not meet the minimum $1 bid price requirement and that it securities would be delisted if such price was not met, for 10 continuous trading days, within six months of such letter.  The Company anticipates that it will have some developments relating to its product candidates on or before such date that could result in the stock price moving above $1 per share, however, there can be no assurance that  such result  will be successful  in achieving compliance with such rule by such date.

 

On November 12, 2009, Dr. Jaye Thompson was appointed to our board of directors and to serve as a member of the audit committee of our board of directors.

 

On November 12, 2009, Mark Lappe resigned his position as a member of the Company’s board of directors and chairperson of the board of directors. Nola E. Masterson, a member of the Company’s board of directors since 2004, has been appointed as chairperson of the Company’s board of directors.

On November 16, 2009, our board of directors elected Joseph S. Podolski as President of the Company.

 

On November 17, 2009, our stockholders approved an amendment to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 30 million to 75 million.

 

Settlement with Trade Creditors

On October 29, 2009, we entered into a Master Settlement Agreement and Releases (the “Settlement Agreement”) with certain trade creditors, pursuant to which we issued 5,361,194 shares of our common stock, at $1.10 per share, and paid approximately $2.77 million in cash to such creditors as payment in full for our then-outstanding liabilities of approximately $8.7 million and for the release of the claims held by and the dismissal of the litigation commenced by such creditors against the Company. On December 4, 2009, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 to register the resale of the shares of common stock issued under the Settlement Agreement by such creditors. Under the Settlement Agreement, we agreed to refrain from selling any shares for any primary public offering or other offering of our equity securities during the ten business days immediately following the effective date of such registration statement, in order to provide such creditors an opportunity to sell their shares issued under the Settlement Agreement.

RISK FACTORS

Investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the risk factors in any prospectus supplement and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, updates in Part II, Item 1A of our Form 10-Q filings, and in our future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as other information in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein, before purchasing any of our securities. Each of the risk factors could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities.

Examples of these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

§ uncertainty related to our ability to obtain approval of our products by the FDA and regulatory bodies in other jurisdictions;

While these forward-looking statements made by us are based on our current intent, beliefs and judgments, they are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary from the projections in the forward-looking statements. You should consider the risks below carefully in addition to other information contained in this report before engaging in any transaction involving our securities. If any of these risks occur, they could seriously harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 In addition, in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, the words “believe,” “should,” “predict,” “future,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “expect,” “potential,” “continue,” or “opportunity,” or other words and terms of similar meaning, as they relate to us, our business, future financial or operating performance or our management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Past financial or operating performance is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future performance and you should not use our historical performance to anticipate results or future period trends.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless the applicable prospectus supplement states otherwise, the net proceeds we receive from the sale of the securities offered by us under this prospectus will be used for general corporate purposes.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

Our authorized capital stock consists of 75,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which 500,000 shares are designated the Series One Junior Participating Preferred Stock. As of December 8, 2009, 25,538,598 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and no shares of our preferred stock, were outstanding.

 

Common Stock

The issued and outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common stock that we may issue in the future will be, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Holders of our common stock are entitled to share equally, share for share, if dividends are declared on our common stock, whether payable in cash, property or our securities. The shares of common stock are not convertible and the holders thereof have no preemptive or subscription rights to purchase any of our securities. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share equally, share for share, in our assets which are legally available for distribution, after payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting. Except as otherwise required by law or our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of common stock vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders.

 

Our common stock is currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “RPRX.”

Preferred Stock

We may issue shares of preferred stock in series and may, at the time of issuance, determine the designations, preferences, conversion rights, cumulative, relative, participating optional or other rights, preferences and limitations of each series. Satisfaction of any dividend preferences of outstanding shares of preferred stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of dividends on shares of common stock. Holders of shares of preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company before any payment is made to the holders of shares of common stock. Upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of directors then in office, our board of directors, without stockholder approval, may issue shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect the holders of shares of common stock.

 

7
 

DESCRIPTION OF Warrants

We may issue warrants to purchase shares of common stock or preferred stock. Warrants may be issued independently or together with any shares of common stock or preferred stock and may be attached to or separate from such shares of common stock or preferred stock. Each series of warrants may be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the following terms of any warrants in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered:

 

§ the title of the warrants;
§ the price or prices at which the warrants will be issued;
§ the periods during which the warrants are exercisable;
§ the number of shares of common stock or preferred stock for which each warrant is exercisable;
§ the exercise price for the warrants, including any changes to or adjustments in the exercise price;
§ if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related common stock or preferred stock will be separately transferable;
§ any listing of the warrants on a securities exchange or automated quotation system;
§ if applicable, a discussion of material United States federal income tax consequences and other special considerations with respect to any warrants; and
§ any other terms of the warrants, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the transferability, exchange and exercise of such warrants.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering securities which may be sold from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We may sell the securities through underwriters or dealers, through agents, or directly to one or more purchasers. The securities may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. One or more prospectus supplements will describe the terms of the offering of the securities, including:

§ the name or names of any agents or underwriters;
§ the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds we will receive from the sale;
§ any over-allotment options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us;
§ any agency fees or underwriting discounts and other items constituting agents’ or underwriters’ compensation;
§ any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and
§ any securities exchange or market on which the common stock or other securities may be listed.

Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement are underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.

If underwriters are used in the sale, they will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. We may offer the securities to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Subject to certain conditions, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities offered by the prospectus supplement if they are to purchase any of such offered shares. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may change from time to time. We may use underwriters with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe in the prospectus supplement naming the underwriter, the nature of any such relationship.

We may sell the securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of the securities and we will describe any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement.

We may authorize agents or underwriters to solicit offers by certain types of institutional investors to purchase the securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. We will describe the conditions to these contracts and the commissions we must pay for solicitation of these contracts in the prospectus supplement.

We may provide agents and underwriters with indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribution with respect to payments that the agents or underwriters may make with respect to such liabilities. Agents and underwriters may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.

Any underwriter may engage in overallotment, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Overallotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying securities so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum price. Short covering transactions involve exercise by underwriters of an over-allotment option or purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a short covering transaction. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time.

Our common stock is quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market. One or more underwriters may make a market in our common stock or other securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue market making at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to liquidity of the trading market for our common stock or other securities.

9
 

Any underwriters who are qualified market makers on the NASDAQ Global Market may engage in passive market making transactions in the securities on the NASDAQ Global Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, during the business day prior to the pricing of the offering, before the commencement of offers or sales of the securities. Passive market makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.
