Green, a citizen of the United Kingdom, and, from and after amendment No. 5, RedCo II Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Island exempted limited partnership ("RedCo II" and collectively with Redmile and Mr. Green, the "Reporting Persons"), in each case, relating to the common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of Fate Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 9 shall have the meanings set forth in the Prior Schedule 13D. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 9, the Prior Schedule 13D is unchanged.
Item 5(a) of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: The aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock that may be deemed beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons includes the following: (i) 353,233 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore II Master Fund, Ltd., (ii) 146,127 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Trading Sub, Ltd., (iii) 1,253,227 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Long Only Trading Sub, Ltd., (iv) 8,977,624 shares of Common Stock held by RedCo II, (v) 1,931,216 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Biopharma Investments I, L.P., (vi) 107,103 shares of Common Stock held by RedCo I, L.P., and (vii) 104,416 shares of Common Stock held by RM Special Holdings 8, LLC. Redmile is the investment manager/adviser to each of the Redmile Funds and, in such capacity, exercises voting and investment power over all of the shares held by the Redmile Funds and may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares. Jeremy C. Green serves as the managing member of Redmile and also may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares. Redmile and Mr. Green each disclaim beneficial ownership of these shares, except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest in such shares, if any. The Reporting Persons may also be deemed to beneficially own: (i) 11,331 shares of Common Stock pursuant to certain restricted stock units that have vested or will vest within 60 days of the date of this filing, and (ii) 152,227 shares of Common Stock subject to options to purchase shares of Common Stock that are exercisable within 60 days of the date of this filing (the "Options"). The restricted stock units and Options were granted to Michael S. Lee, a managing director of Redmile, in connection with his service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer. Pursuant to the policies of Redmile, Mr. Lee holds the restricted stock units and Options as a nominee on behalf, and for the sole benefit, of Redmile and has assigned all economic, pecuniary and voting rights in respect of the restricted stock units and Options to Redmile. Redmile and Mr. Green each disclaim beneficial ownership of the restricted stock units and Options, except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest in the shares subject to such restricted stock units and Options, if any, and this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owner of such securities any purpose. Subject to the Preferred Beneficial Ownership Blocker (as defined below), the Reporting Persons may also be deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the following: (i) 194,884 shares of the Issuer's Class A Preferred Stock held by Redmile Capital Fund, LP, (ii) 176,110 shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore Master Fund, Ltd., (iii) 1,687,110 shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by Redmile Capital Offshore II Master Fund, Ltd., (iv) 162,426 shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by Redmile Strategic Trading Sub, Ltd., (v) 342,422 shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by Redmile Biopharma Investments I, L.P., (vi) 162,013 shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by RedCo II, and (vii) 30,121 shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by RM Special Holdings 8, LLC. The Class A Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of Common Stock on a one-for-five basis. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock (as amended and restated, the "Certificate of Designation"), the Issuer may not effect any conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock, and a holder of the Class A Preferred Stock does not have the right to convert any portion of the Class A Preferred Stock held by such holder, to the extent that, after giving effect to the attempted conversion set forth in a notice of conversion, such holder, together with such holder's affiliates and any other person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Act, and the applicable regulations of the SEC, including any "group" of which such holder is a member, would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Preferred Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the "Preferred Beneficial Ownership Blocker"). The "Preferred Beneficial Ownership Limitation" is 14.99% of the shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding, which percentage may be changed at a holder's election upon 61 days' notice to the Issuer. Subject to the Warrant Beneficial Ownership Blocker (as defined below), the Reporting Persons may also be deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of pre-funded warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") to purchase (i) 202,350 shares of Common Stock held by Redmile Strategic Trading Sub, Ltd., and (ii) 3,691,324 shares of Common Stock held by RedCo II. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.001 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Issuer shall not effect any exercise of, and a holder of a Pre-Funded Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise, the Pre-Funded Warrant held by such holder for a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares of Common Stock which, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (x) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder, such holder's affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act to exceed the Maximum Percentage (as defined below) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock following such exercise, or (y) the combined voting power of the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act to exceed the Maximum Percentage of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Issuer then outstanding following such exercise (the "Warrant Beneficial Ownership Blocker"). The "Maximum Percentage" was 9.99%, which percentage may be changed to up to 19.99% at a holder's election upon at least 61 days' notice to the Issuer. On July 1, 2025, Redmile delivered an election notice to increase in the Maximum Percentage of the Pre-Funded Warrants held by the Redmile Funds, including RedCo II, from 9.99% to 14.99% as of 61 days after July 1, 2025. For purposes of this Schedule 13D, the percent of class for Redmile and Jeremy Green was calculated based on: (a) 114,633,022 shares of Common Stock outstanding on May 6, 2025, as disclosed in the Issuer's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on May 13, 2025 (the "Form 10-Q"), plus (b) 152,227 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Options, plus (c) 4,905,075 shares of Common Stock issuable upon either the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants held by the Redmile Funds, or the conversion on a one-for-five basis of the shares of the Class A Preferred Stock held by the Redmile Funds, which due to the Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation and the Preferred Beneficial Ownership Limitation, as applicable, is the maximum number of shares that could be issued upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants or conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock. For purposes of this Schedule 13D, the percent of class for RedCo II was calculated based on: (a) 114,633,022 shares of Common Stock outstanding on May 6, 2025, as disclosed in the Issuer's Form 10-Q, plus (b) 3,691,324 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants held by RedCo II, plus (c) 810,065 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion on a one-for-five basis of the shares of the Class A Preferred Stock held by RedCo II.
