ITEM 1.01.  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

On August 31, 2017, ImmunoGen, Inc. (also referred to as “we” or “our”) entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements with a limited number of holders (“Noteholders”) of our outstanding 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (“2021 Notes”), pursuant to which we agreed to exchange, in a private placement in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Exchanges”), approximately $76.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes held by the Noteholders for (a) approximately 16,518,626 newly issued shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), plus (b) an additional number of newly issued shares of Common Stock to be determined based on the volume-weighted average trading price of the Common Stock over the four trading days beginning on September 5, 2017.

 

We anticipate that the Exchanges will be completed on or about September 11, 2017.  Upon completion of the Exchanges, the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes is expected to be reduced to approximately $23.6 million.

 

The foregoing description of the exchange agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of exchange agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 of this Current Report, which is incorporated by reference herein.

 

This Current Report does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering would be unlawful.
