Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On April 28, 2016, Theravance Biopharma, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Leerink Partners LLC and Evercore Group L.L.C., as representatives of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of 4,765,000 ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.00001 per share, at a price to the public of $21.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to 714,750 additional ordinary shares to cover over-allotments, which the Underwriters have not yet exercised. The option granted to the Underwriters to purchase additional ordinary shares of the Company expires on May 28, 2016. The Company expects to receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $93.6 million, or approximately $107.7 million if the Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated transaction expenses. The shares are being offered and sold under a prospectus supplement and related prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on form S-3 (File No. 333-205275). The offering is expected to close on May 4, 2016, subject to the satisfaction of specified closing conditions. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
