(the “Lessor”) relating to office and laboratory space leased by the Company in Palo Alto, California.  The Lease is currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2015.  Pursuant to the Amendment, the Lessor granted to the Company two one-year options to extend the term of the Lease through December 2016 and December 2017 and one three-month option to extend the term of the Lease through March 2018.  The Company did not make any payment to the Lessor in connection with the Amendment.

Item 7.01.                          Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

The Company will be conducting investor meetings during the week of January 12, 2015.  At such meetings, representatives of the Company may note that the Company recently completed two two-year carcinogenicity studies for AN2728 and that neither study identified any evidence of AN2728-related malignancies.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
