This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule TO (together with any exhibits and annexes attached hereto, this “Amendment No. 3”) is filed by Sage Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on January 31, 2024 and Amendment No. 2 on February 14, 2024 (the “Schedule TO”). The Schedule TO relates to an offer by the Company (the “Exchange Offer”) to certain non-executive officer employee optionholders to exchange some or all of their eligible outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for replacement options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange Eligible Options for Replacement Options dated January 23, 2024 (the “Offer to Exchange”), attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO and amended to date, and incorporated herein by reference.

This Amendment No. 3 is being made to report the results of the Exchange Offer. Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment No. 3, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference to the extent relevant to the items in this Amendment No. 3. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO. You should read this Amendment No. 3 together with the Schedule TO and the Offer to Exchange.

Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.

Item 4(a) of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following information:

The Offer expired at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 20, 2024. A total of 418 Eligible Holders participated in the Offer. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Offer, the Company accepted for exchange Eligible Options to purchase a total of 3,023,139 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 86.6% of the total shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Eligible Options. All tendered Eligible Options were cancelled effective as of February 21, 2024, and promptly thereafter, in exchange therefor, the Company granted Replacement Options for a total of 1,459,300 shares of the Company’s common stock, pursuant to the terms of the Offer to Exchange and the 2014 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The exercise price per share of the Replacement Options was $22.20 per share, which was the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on February 21, 2024. The vesting terms of the Replacement Options are described in detail in the Offer to Exchange.
