Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information provided in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Upon consummation of the Merger, at the Effective Time, each share of common stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares owned by the Company, AbbVie, or Merger Sub (which were cancelled) and shares with respect to which appraisal rights were properly exercised and not withdrawn under Delaware law) was automatically converted into the right to receive $22.60 in cash, without interest (the "Merger Consideration"). Each stock option outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive a cash payment, without interest, in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration minus the exercise price that would be due in cash upon exercise of such stock option. Each restricted stock unit award outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive a cash payment, without interest, in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration. Each warrant to purchase Company common stock outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive a cash payment, without interest, in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the number of shares of common stock subject to the warrant, multiplied by the Merger Consideration, over (ii) the number of shares of common stock subject to the warrant, multiplied by the per share exercise price of such warrant.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company's

Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 10, 2021 and is incorporated by reference herein as

Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

The information provided in the Introductory Note and Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

On the Closing Date, in connection with the consummation of the Merger, the Company notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ") that each share of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and requested that NASDAQ suspend trading of the Company's common stock on NASDAQ prior to the opening of trading on December 16, 2021. The Company also requested that NASDAQ file a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the SEC with respect to the Company's common stock in order to effect the delisting of the Company's common stock from NASDAQ. Such delisting will result in the termination of the registration of the Company's common stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company intends to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 requesting the termination of registration of the Company's common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the termination and suspension of the Company's reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, respectively.
