Item
5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain
Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On April 12, 2022, Elanco US, Inc.,
a wholly owned subsidiary of Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (“Elanco”), entered into a Consulting Agreement with Aaron
Schacht, a former executive officer of Elanco who is leading the potential carve-out of Elanco’s microbiome R&D
platform (the “Microbiome Platform”). As previously disclosed, Mr. Schacht separated from Elanco on December 31,
2021, but continues to lead an external team responsible for continuing development of the Microbiome Platform. As described below under
Item 7.01, Elanco has now consummated a transaction creating an independent, privately-funded microbiome innovation company.
Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Schacht
has agreed to serve as a member of Elanco’s Science and Technology Advisory Board and to provide general consulting on various special
topics as requested by Elanco from time to time, in each case for an initial hourly fee of $250 an hour. The initial term of the Consulting
Agreement is 12 months, which may be terminated or extended as contemplated in the agreement.
Item
7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 11, 2022, Elanco announced the creation of
BiomEdit, an independent, privately-funded microbiome innovation company to which Elanco intends to contribute assets related to the Microbiome Platform in exchange for non-voting equity in the new company. No contingent fee will be due to
Mr. Schacht or his affiliated entity in connection with the transaction pursuant to the previously disclosed
agreement between Elanco and Mr. Schacht. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
The information in this Item 7.01, including the information contained
in the accompanying Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section,
and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
Item
8.01 Other
Events.
On April 12, 2022, Elanco issued a press release announcing (i) that,
as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 11, 2022 (the “Early Tender Time”), holders of $406,391,000 aggregate principal
amount of Elanco’s outstanding 4.272% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”) had tendered their Notes pursuant to its tender
offer previously announced on March 29, 2022 (the “Tender Offer”) and (ii) the increase of the tender cap from $250,000,000
aggregate principal amount of Notes to $406,391,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes. A copy of the press release is attached hereto
as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
As of the Early Tender Time, the tenders received by Elanco for the
Notes represented in the aggregate approximately 54.19% of the outstanding Notes. The Tender Offer will expire at 12:00 a.m., New York
City time, on Monday, April 25, 2022 unless extended or earlier terminated (the “Expiration Time”), however Elanco does
not expect to accept any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time.
On April 13, 2022, Elanco announced that it exercised its right
to accept for early payment all of the Notes validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Time.
Each holder who validly tendered its Notes on or prior to the Early
Tender Time will receive the total consideration of $1,035 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes tendered and accepted for payment,
which includes $1,005 as the tender offer consideration and $30 as the early tender payment. In addition, accrued interest up to, but
not including, the payment date of the Notes will be paid in cash on all validly tendered and accepted Notes.
The complete terms and conditions of the Tender Offer for the Notes
are detailed in the Offer to Purchase. The Tender Offer is being made only through, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in, the Offer to Purchase.
