Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 7, 2011, Inhibitex, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an Equity Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., as representative for the underwriters named therein, relating to an underwritten public offering of 11,463,415 shares of its common stock, $.001 par value per share, at a price to the public of $4.10 per share (the "Offering Price"). Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,719,512 shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Offering Price. The Company expects to receive approximately $44 million in net proceeds from the offering after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company, assuming no exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, or $50.6 million if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full. Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is acting as Sole Book-Running Manager, Canaccord Genuity Inc. is acting as Lead Manager, JMP Securities LLC is acting as Co-Manager, and Trout Capital LLC is acting as a financial advisor. The shares are expected to be delivered to the underwriters on or about April 12, 2011, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-165786) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a preliminary and final prospectus supplement thereunder. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement executed in connection with the offering is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Underwriting Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of the Company that are customary for transactions of this type and customary conditions to closing. Additionally, the Company has agreed to provide the underwriters with customary indemnification rights under the Underwriting Agreement. The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Exhibit.
The opinion of the Company’s counsel regarding the validity of the shares issued in this offering is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.
