Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. As previously disclosed, XOMA Royalty Corporation (“ XOMA Royalty ”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 15, 2025 (the “ Merger Agreement ”), with Generation Bio Co., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ” or “ Generation Bio ”), and XRA 7 Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of XOMA Royalty (“ Merger Sub ”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, on February 6, 2026, XOMA Royalty and Merger Sub completed a tender offer to acquire all of Generation Bio’s issued and outstanding shares (the “ Company Shares ”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), for (i) $4.2913 per Company Share, payable in cash, without interest and less any applicable tax withholding (such amount, the “ Cash Amount ”), plus (ii) one non-tradeable contingent value right per Company Share (each, a “ CVR ”), which represents the right to receive certain potential payments in cash in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Contingent Value Rights Agreement, dated February 9, 2026 (the “ CVR Agreement ”), by and among XOMA Royalty, Merger Sub, and Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, LLC (“Broadridge”), a Pennsylvania limited liability company, as rights agent (the Cash Amount plus one CVR, together, the “ Offer Price ”), all upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 9, 2026 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “ Offer to Purchase ”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “ Letter of Transmittal ,” which, together with the Offer to Purchase, constituted the “ Offer ”), copies of which are attached to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 9, 2026 as exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively. The Offer and related withdrawal rights expired as scheduled, one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, February 6, 2026 (such date and time, the “ Expiration Time ”), and the Offer was not extended. According to Broadridge, the depositary and paying agent for the Offer, as of the Expiration Time, a total of 4,722,533 Company Shares were validly tendered, and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, representing approximately 70% of the outstanding Company Shares. All conditions to the Offer, including the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement), were satisfied or waived and XOMA Royalty and Merger Sub accepted for payment all Company Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Offer. XOMA Royalty completed the acquisition of Generation Bio on February 9, 2026, by causing Merger Sub to merge with and into Generation Bio (the “ Merger ”) pursuant to the Merger Agreement without a vote of the Generation Bio stockholders in accordance with Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “ DGCL ”).
