Amendment No. 2
This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the previously filed Schedules 13D filed by Baker Bros. Advisors LP (the “Adviser”), Baker Bros. Advisors (GP) LLC (the “Adviser GP”), Julian C. Baker and Felix J. Baker (collectively the “Reporting Persons”). Except as supplemented herein, such statements, as heretofore amended and supplemented, remain in full force and effect.
The Adviser GP is the sole general partner of the Adviser. Pursuant to the management agreements, as amended, among the Adviser, Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. (“Life Sciences”) and 667, L.P. (“667”, and together with Life Sciences, the “Funds”), and their respective general partners, the Funds’ respective general partners relinquished to the Adviser all discretion and authority with respect to the investment and voting power over securities held by the Funds, and thus the Adviser has complete and unlimited discretion and authority with respect to the Funds’ investments and voting power over investments.
All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D, as amended. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:
The disclosure regarding the purchases in Item 5(c) below is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 4. | Purpose of the Transaction. |
Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows:
The Funds hold securities of Kodiak Sciences Inc. (the “Issuer”) for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons or their affiliates may purchase additional securities or dispose of securities in varying amounts and at varying times depending upon the Reporting Persons’ continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of shares of Common Stock or other securities for purchase at particular price levels, the business prospects of the Issuer, other business investment opportunities, economic conditions, stock market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of securities of the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the particular entities. The Reporting Persons may discuss items of mutual interest with the Issuer, which could include items in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Depending upon their assessments of the above factors, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may change their present intentions as stated above and they may assess whether to make suggestions to the management of the Issuer regarding financing, and whether to acquire additional securities of the Issuer (by means of open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, exercise some of all of the Stock Options (defined in Item 5), exercise of some or all of the 2022 Warrants (defined in Item 5), or otherwise) or to dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer under their control.
Except as otherwise disclosed herein, at the present time, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals with respect to any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer including, without limitation, those matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
ITEM 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 5 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(a) and (b) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 2 are incorporated herein by reference.
Set forth below is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock directly held by each of the Funds, which may be deemed to be indirectly beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, as well as the shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon exercise of warrants to purchase Common Stock at an exercise price of $.01 per share with an expiration date of August 11, 2022 (the “2022 Warrants”).

The Adviser GP, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker as managing members of the Adviser GP, and the Adviser may be deemed to be beneficial owners of securities of the Issuer directly held by the Funds.
Felix J. Baker, a managing member of the Adviser GP, currently serves on the Board. He is Chair of the Compensation Committee and serves on the Nominating/Governance Committee. Felix J. Baker as compensation for his service on the Board, holds options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (“Stock Options”). Felix J. Baker holds 24,747 Stock Options with an exercise price of $10.13 per share, which will vest on the earlier of June 3, 2020 or one day prior to the next annual meeting of the Issuer. The policy of the Funds and the Adviser does not permit managing members of the Adviser GP to receive compensation for serving as directors of the Issuer, and the Funds are instead entitled to the pecuniary interest in any compensation received for their service.
(c) The following transactions in the Issuer’s Common Stock were effected by the Funds noted below during the sixty days preceding the filing of this statement using working capital of the applicable Fund. All purchase transactions were effected in the open market directly with a broker-dealer. Except as disclosed herein or in any previous amendments to this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons or their affiliates has effected any other transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.
