Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Merger Agreement

 

On March 5, 2023, Adaptimmune Therapeutics plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales ("Adaptimmune"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with TCR2 Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TCR2") and CM Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adaptimmune ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will be merged with and into TCR2 (the "Merger"), with TCR2 surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adaptimmune.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of TCR2 common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “TCR2 Common Stock") (other than shares of TCR2 Common Stock held by TCR2 as treasury stock, or shares of TCR2 Common Stock owned by Adaptimmune, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Adaptimmune), including shares of TCR2 Common Stock underlying TCR2 restricted stock units that vest upon a change of control, will be converted into the right to receive 1.5117 (the “Exchange Ratio”) Adaptimmune American Depositary Shares (“Adaptimmune ADSs”).

 

Each option to acquire shares of TCR2 Common Stock that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested, will be assumed and substituted for an option to purchase a number of Adaptimmune ordinary shares or Adaptimmune ADSs, as determined by Adaptimmune, based on a calculation equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of TCR2 Common Stock subject to such TCR2 option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) six times the Exchange Ratio (the “Ordinary Share Exchange Ratio”). Each award of restricted stock units with respect to shares of TCR2 Common Stock (other than restricted stock units that vest upon a change of control) will be assumed and substituted for a restricted stock unit-style option to purchase a number of Adaptimmune ordinary shares or Adaptimmune ADSs, as determined by Adaptimmune, based on a calculation equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of TCR2 Common Stock subject to such TCR2 restricted stock unit and (ii) the Ordinary Share Exchange Ratio.

 

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants given by Adaptimmune, TCR2 and Merger Sub. The Merger Agreement also contains customary pre-closing covenants, including covenants by each of the parties relating to conduct of their respective business prior to the Effective Time.  In addition, the parties have agreed to use their respective reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary, proper or advisable to complete the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement as promptly as practicable, including making any required regulatory filings with respect to the Merger, except that Adaptimmune is not required to divest any assets or businesses of TCR2, Adaptimmune or any of their respective affiliates and subsidiaries.

 

The Merger Agreement also provides that, from the earlier of the Effective Time of the Merger and termination of the Merger Agreement, each of Adaptimmune and TCR2 is subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit acquisition proposals from third parties, to provide information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding acquisition proposals, subject to customary exceptions. In addition, the board of directors of each of Adaptimmune and TCR2 are required to recommend that their respective shareholders or stockholders vote in favor of the Merger, subject to exceptions for superior proposals and other situations where failure to effect a recommendation change would be inconsistent with such board’s fiduciary duties.

 

 

 

 

Consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, among others, (i) approval of the Merger Agreement and Merger by TCR2’s stockholders, (ii) Adaptimmune’s shareholders authorizing Adaptimmune’s board of directors (or a duly authorized committee thereof) to allot all Adaptimmune ordinary shares to be issued in connection with the Merger (to be represented by Adaptimmune ADSs), (iii) the absence of any law or order prohibiting consummation of the Merger, (iv) Adaptimmune’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (to be issued in connection with the Merger) having been declared effective, (v) the Adaptimmune ADSs issuable to TCR2 stockholders having been authorized for listing on Nasdaq, (vi) accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties (subject to certain materiality standards set forth in the Merger Agreement), (vii) compliance by the other party in all material respects with such other party’s obligations under the Merger Agreement; (viii) the absence of a material adverse effect on the other party since March 5, 2023, (ix) satisfaction of certain regulatory clearances and (x) certain contingent liabilities of TCR2 being less than $10 million.

 

Either Adaptimmune or TCR2 may terminate the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, including if (i) the Merger is not completed by September 5, 2023, (ii) the other party's board of directors withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or approves or recommends an alternative transaction or (iii) Adaptimmune’s or TCR2’s board of directors, as applicable, resolve to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a superior proposal prior to obtaining approval of the Merger from Adaptimmune’s shareholders or TCR2’s stockholders, as applicable. The Merger Agreement also provides that under certain specified circumstances described in the Merger Agreement, including those described above, Adaptimmune or TCR2, as applicable, will be required to pay a termination fee equal to $2.4 million.

 

Additional Information

 

The foregoing is a general description of the Merger and Merger Agreement; it does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 has been described above to provide investors and Adaptimmune shareholders with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement and is not intended to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about Adaptimmune, Merger Sub or TCR2 or any of their respective affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Merger Agreement, were made as of specific dates, were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement and may not have been intended to be statements of fact, but rather, as a method of allocating risk and governing the contractual rights and relationships among the parties to the Merger Agreement. In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants may have been qualified by certain disclosures not reflected in the text of the Merger Agreement and may apply standards of materiality and other qualifications and limitations in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by Adaptimmune’s shareholders or TCR2’s stockholders. In reviewing the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement or any descriptions thereof in this summary, it is important to bear in mind that such representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions were not intended by the parties to the Merger Agreement to be characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of Adaptimmune, Merger Sub or TCR2 or any of their respective affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures. For the foregoing reasons, the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions of those provisions should not be read alone and should instead be read in conjunction with the other information contained in the reports, statements and filings that Adaptimmune and TCR2 publicly file with the SEC.

 

Voting Agreements

 

Concurrently with the Merger Agreement, Adaptimmune and TCR2 entered into voting and support agreements (the “Voting Agreements”) with certain shareholders of Adaptimmune (the “Adaptimmune Shareholders”), and certain stockholders of TCR2 (the “TCR2 Stockholders” and, together with the Adaptimmune Shareholders, the “Supporting Holders”). The Supporting Holders have agreed to, among other things, vote their shares in favor of the Merger Agreement and the Merger, in accordance with the recommendation of the respective boards of directors of Adaptimmune and TCR2.

 

In connection with the closing of the Merger, pursuant to the terms of the Voting Agreements, certain Supporting Holders will enter into lock-up agreements, pursuant to which each such Supporting Holder will be subject to a six-month lockup on the sale or transfer of Adaptimmune ordinary shares (to be represented by Adaptimmune ADSs) held by each such Supporting Holder at the closing of the Merger, subject to customary exceptions.

 

The Voting Agreements will terminate at the earliest to occur of (a) the Effective Time, (b) receipt of approval of the Supporting Holders, as applicable, and (c) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is validly terminated.

 

 

 

 

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the form of the Voting Agreements, the forms of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.

the extent to which the results from the research and development programs conducted by Adaptimmune, TCR2, and/or their respective collaborators or licensees may be replicated in other studies and/or lead to advancement of product candidates to clinical trials, therapeutic applications, or regulatory approval; uncertainty of the utilization, market acceptance, and commercial success of Adaptimmune or TCR2’s product candidates, and the impact of studies (whether conducted by Adaptimmune, TCR2 or others and whether mandated or voluntary) on any of the foregoing;
