Explanatory Note
Ambit Biosciences Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2014 (the “Original Filing”), for the sole purpose of completing the disclosure in Part III, Item 12 regarding the security ownership of certain beneficial owners of the Company’s capital stock, originally filed with the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A on April 9, 2014 and incorporated by reference into the Original Filing, to correct an omission in such disclosure discovered by management after the initial filing date.
Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 of the Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company has included with this Amendment currently dated certifications by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as required by Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(a) and (b) and 15d-14(a) and (b).
No other changes have been made to the Original Filing or any other exhibits. This Amendment speaks as of the filing date of the Original Filing and does not reflect events occurring after the original filing date or modify or update those disclosures that may be affected by subsequent events.
Part III
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF
CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the ownership of the Company’s common stock as of February 28, 2014 by: (i) each of our directors; (ii) each of our named executive officers; (iii) all executive officers and directors of the Company as a group; and (iv) all those known by the Company to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of its common stock.
This table is based upon information supplied by our officers and directors and upon information about principal stockholders known to us based on Schedules 13D and 13G filed with the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options and warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of February 28, 2014 are deemed outstanding, but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table and subject to community property laws where applicable, the Company believes that each of the stockholders named in this table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated as beneficially owned. Except as otherwise indicated, the address of each person listed in the table below is: Care of Ambit Biosciences Corporation, 11080 Roselle Street, San Diego, CA 92121. Applicable percentages are based on 17,921,747 shares outstanding on February 28, 2014, adjusted as required by rules promulgated by the SEC.
