On January 22, 2014, Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing its intention to offer $200 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2021, subject to market conditions and other factors, in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Offering"). The Company also intends to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase up to an additional $30 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes.

As previously reported, on December 11, 2013, the Company entered into an arrangement agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") with Cangene Corporation, a corporation amalgamated under the laws of Ontario ("Cangene"), pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Cangene (the "Arrangement") for $3.24 per share in cash (on a fully diluted basis), which represents a total purchase price of $222 million. Completion of the Arrangement is subject to various customary closing conditions, including, among others, (1) approval of the Arrangement by holders of at least 66 2/3% of the votes cast by Cangene shareholders at a special meeting, (2) expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and (3) issuance by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice of a final order approving the Arrangement.
