Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 5, 2013, Zogenix, Inc. (the “Company” or “Zogenix”) gave notice to Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. that it was terminating its Controlled Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreement, dated March 27, 2013 (the “Cantor Agreement”), pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Cantor Agreement. The Company elected to terminate the Cantor Agreement in order to sell shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), which were otherwise reserved for issuance pursuant to the Cantor Agreement, in an underwritten offering, which is described in more detail below under Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The termination of the Cantor Agreement will be effective on November 16, 2013.

The Cantor Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 27, 2013. The description of the Cantor Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Cantor Agreement filed therewith as an exhibit to such report.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 5, 2013, Zogenix entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Leerink Swann LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale of 26,666,667 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock. The price to the public in this offering is $2.25 per Share. The Underwriters have agreed to purchase the Shares from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $2.115 per Share. The net proceeds to the Company from this offering are expected to be approximately $56 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The offering is expected to close on or about November 12, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions. In addition, under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 4,000,000 additional Shares to cover over-allotments, if any.

The offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statements on Form S-3 (Registration Statement Nos. 333-185901 and 333-192109) previously filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus filed with the SEC.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein. A copy of the opinion of Latham & Watkins LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares to purchase shares of Common Stock in the offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this report.

The Company issued press releases on November 4, 2013 and November 5, 2013 announcing the commencement of the offering and the pricing of the offering, respectively, which press releases are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this report.
