Galapagos raises EU2.4 million through warrant exercises
10 Avril 2014 - 6:05PM
Galapagos NV (Euronext:GLPG)
announced
today a share capital increase arising from warrant
exercises.
Since its inception in 1999, Galapagos has used
warrant plans to incentivize personnel and management and have them
share in the success of the company. Following warrant
exercises during the exercise period from 21 March 2014
through 3 April 2014, Galapagos issued 304,791 new
ordinary shares for a total capital increase (including issuance
premium) of €2,381,210.31.
CEO Onno van de Stolpe exercised 30,000 warrants
through a cashless exercise facility. These warrants were due
to expire on 1 June 2014. Onno van de Stolpe holds
an aggregate of 357,358 shares in Galapagos, representing 1.2% of
the outstanding Galapagos shares.
Other members of the Executive Committee
exercised an aggregate amount of 82,500 warrants. Most of the
warrants exercised by the other Executive Committee members were
due to expire on 1 June 2014. The remaining
warrants that were exercised by these members of the Executive
Committee were exercised under the Galapagos' Executive Committee
warrant exercise program whereby members have made a commitment to
exercise a minimum number of warrants during subsequent exercise
periods, subject to certain conditions. Other members of the
Board of Directors exercised an aggregate of 12,540 warrants, all
of which were due to expire on 1 June 2014.
To date, Galapagos' total share capital amounts
to €162,820,555.17; the total number of securities conferring
voting rights is 30,098,837, which is also the total number of
voting rights (the "denominator"), and all securities conferring
voting rights and all voting rights are of the same category.
The total number of rights (warrants) to subscribe to not yet
issued securities conferring voting rights is 3,093,485, which
equals the total number of voting rights that may result from the
exercise of these warrants. Galapagos does not have any
convertible bonds or shares without voting rights outstanding.

specialized in novel modes-of-action, with a large pipeline
comprising five Phase 2 studies (two led by GSK), one Phase 1
study, six pre-clinical, and 20 discovery small-molecule and
antibody programs in cystic fibrosis, inflammation, antibiotics,
metabolic disease, and other indications. In the field of
inflammation, AbbVie and Galapagos signed a worldwide license
agreement whereby AbbVie will be responsible for further
development and commercialization of GLPG0634 after Phase 2B.
GLPG0634 is an orally-available, selective inhibitor of JAK1 for

GSK2586184 (formerly GLPG0778, in-licensed by GlaxoSmithKline in
2012). GLPG0974 is the first inhibitor of FFA2 to be
evaluated clinically for the treatment of IBD; this program is
currently in a Proof-of-Concept Phase 2 study. GLPG1205 is a
first-in-class molecule that targets inflammatory disorders and has
completed Phase 1. AbbVie and Galapagos signed an agreement
in CF whereby they work collaboratively to develop and
commercialize oral drugs that address two mutations in the CFTR
gene, the G551D and F508del mutation. Potentiator GLPG1837 is
