This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the statement on
Schedule 13D amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed on July 30, 2021, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed April 1, 2022 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the common stock, par
value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Imago BioSciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).
Certain
terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 have the meanings assigned thereto in the Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the
Schedule 13D.
| Item 2. |
Identity and Background. |
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by incorporating herein by reference the information set forth on the updated Schedule I attached hereto.
| Item 4. |
Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following:
Pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated November 19, 2022, by and among the Issuer,
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“Merck”) and M-Inspire Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Merck
(“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer on January 11, 2023 (the “Merger”), following a tender offer by Merger Sub (the “Offer”) to purchase each outstanding
share of Common Stock in exchange for $36.00 in cash, without interest and less applicable tax withholdings (the “Offer Price”). Clarus Lifesciences III, L.P. tendered 2,375,037 shares of Common Stock, constituting all of its beneficially
owned Common Stock, into the Offer. After the expiration of the Offer, Merger Sub accepted all shares of Common Stock that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on January 11, 2023, and Clarus Lifesciences III, L.P. became entitled to
receive the Offer Price per share.
Accordingly, as a result of the consummation of the Offer and the Merger, the Reporting Persons and the persons
named on Schedule I no longer beneficially own any shares of Common Stock.
| Item 5. |
Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
(a) and (b) As of the date hereof, each of the Reporting Persons and the persons named on Schedule I does not beneficially own any shares of Common
Stock.
Dennis Henner, an Executive Advisor of Blackstone and/or one of its affiliates, serves as a member of the Board of the Issuer and in his capacity
as a director of the Issuer previously held options to purchase up to 11,904 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $15.65 per share, which options were canceled in the Merger in return for a per share amount equal to the excess of the Offer
Price over the exercise price per share of the option. Pursuant to arrangements between Mr. Henner and Blackstone, Mr. Henner is required to transfer to Blackstone compensation received in connection with his membership on the board of
directors of the Issuer.
(c) Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction in the past 60 days in
shares of Common Stock.
(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, except as set forth herein, no person other than the Reporting Persons has
the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons previously reported in this Item 5.
(e) On January 11, 2023, following the consummation of the Offer and the Merger, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than
five percent of the shares of Common Stock.
