Exchange Transaction
On December 10, 2025, Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with certain holders of its 1.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Existing Convertible Notes”), including the Michael A. Chambers Living Trust, an entity affiliated with Michael Chambers, a member of the Company’s board of directors. Under the terms of the Exchange Agreements, the holders party thereto have agreed to exchange with the Company approximately $291.4 million in aggregate principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes held by them for (i) approximately $291.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “New Convertible Notes”), which is equal to $1,000 of New Convertible Notes per $1,000 principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes exchanged, and (ii) an aggregate of approximately $31.6 million in cash, which is equal to approximately $108.50 per $1,000 principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes exchanged and comprised of accrued and unpaid interest on $1,000 principal amount of Existing Convertible Notes, plus $120.17, less deemed accrued and unpaid interest on $1,000 principal amount of New Convertible Notes from August 28, 2025 (such exchanges, collectively, the “Exchange”).
The New Convertible Notes will constitute “additional Notes” under the Indenture, dated as of August 28, 2025 between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “New Convertible Notes Indenture”), governing the Company’s 4.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 and will be issued pursuant to the terms thereof. The New Convertible Notes will be issued as part of the same series as the approximately $602 million of 4.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 originally issued in August 2025. Following the closing of the Exchange, the aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 will total $893.4 million.
The foregoing description of the New Convertible Notes Indenture and the New Convertible Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Convertible Notes Indenture and form of Note, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 29, 2025 and are incorporated herein by reference.
The Exchange is expected to close on or about December 18, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The issuance of the New Convertible Notes will occur pursuant to the New Convertible Notes Indenture and the first supplemental indenture thereto, to be dated on or around December 18, 2025, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee.
The issuance of the New Convertible Notes under the Exchange Agreements is being made in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Company relied on this exemption from registration based, in part, on representations made by the holders of the Existing Convertible Notes party to the Exchange Agreements. The New Convertible Notes will be issued only to investors that qualified as institutional “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act) and/or “qualified institutional buyers” (as such term is defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act).
The New Convertible Notes and the shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, issuable upon conversion thereof, if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such other jurisdictions.
| Item 8.01 | Other Events |
On December 11, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the Exchange. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
