This Amendment No. 2 to Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D filed by Mr. Joseph H. Moglia on March 13, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed by Mr. Moglia on March 27, 2020 (as amended, this “Statement” or “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Novan, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. Except as amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.

 

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

 

This Amendment No. 2 amends Item 4 of the Schedule 13D to include the following after the final paragraph thereof:

 

On October 30, 2020, the Company filed a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Form 10-Q”) for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, reporting that, as of October 26, 2020, 141,513,791 shares of Common Stock were outstanding. This number of outstanding shares of Common Stock reflected an increase since Mr. Moglia filed Amendment No. 1, resulting in a decrease to the percent of outstanding Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Moglia.

 

Between December 4, 2020 and January 19, 2021, Mr. Moglia sold 2,035,440 shares of the Common Stock in open market transactions at various prices per share, for total proceeds of $2,054,699. The date, number of shares sold and purchase price per share for each of these transactions are set forth in Schedule A and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

This Amendment No. 2 amends Item 5 of the Schedule 13D in its entirety as set forth below:

 

(a)Mr. Moglia beneficially holds in the aggregate 3,179,000 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 2.2% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

Mr. Moglia directly holds 2,210,000 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Moglia may be deemed to beneficially hold an additional 765,000 shares of Common Stock through the Moglia Family Foundation, which is a charitable foundation for which Mr. Moglia is the sole trustee, and an additional 204,000 shares of Common Stock through family trusts founded by Mr. Moglia for the benefit of his family members.

 

The percentage ownership of shares of Common Stock set forth in this Statement is based on the 141,513,791 shares of Common Stock reported by the Company to be outstanding as of October 26, 2020 in the Form 10-Q.

 

The shares of Common Stock disclosed in this Statement as beneficially held do not include shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of 2,640,000 outstanding common warrants issued in January 2018 and March 2020 and held by Mr. Moglia, the Moglia Family Foundation and the family trusts, as described below, due to the beneficial ownership limitations included in the warrants.

 

Mr. Moglia directly holds common warrants issued in January 2018 to purchase 310,000 shares of Common Stock, the Moglia Family Foundation directly holds 375,000 common warrants issued in January 2018 to purchase shares of Common Stock, and Mr. Moglia’s family trusts hold common warrants issued in January 2018 to purchase 55,000 shares of Common Stock.

 

The January 2018 common warrants were issued by the Company on January 9, 2018, at a public offering price of $3.80 per share of Common Stock and accompanying warrant. The exercise price of the January 2018 common warrants is $4.66 per share, and such warrants expire four years from the date of issuance (i.e., January 9, 2022). The warrant agreement for the January 2018 common warrants limits the exercisability of the warrants if, upon exercise, the warrant holder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or an amount up to 9.99% if the holder so elects) of the Company’s Common Stock. The January 2018 common warrants held by Mr. Moglia have the initial exercise limitation set at 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock. The foregoing description of the January 2018 common warrant is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of January 2018 common warrant.

 

 

 

 

CUSIP No. 66988N106 13D Page 4 of 6 Pages

 

Mr. Moglia also directly holds common warrants issued in March 2020 to purchase 1,900,000 shares of Common Stock. The March 2020 common warrants were issued by the Company on March 3, 2020, and the description of such common warrants in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

(b)Mr. Moglia beneficially owns, and has the sole power to direct the voting and disposition of, the shares of Common Stock disclo sed as beneficially owned by Mr. Moglia in this Statement.

 

(c)The transactions in the shares of Common Stock during the past sixty (60) days are set forth in Schedule A and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

(d)Not applicable.

 

(e)On October 30, 2020, Mr. Moglia ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Common Stock. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 2 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for Mr. Moglia.

 

Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

The information set forth in Items 4 and 5(a) above is incorporated herein by reference.
