Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13D

 

This Amendment No. 7 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Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is supplemented and superseded, as the case may be, as follows: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 in Item 5 are incorporated herein, by reference.

  

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. 7 are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Set forth below is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (“Common Stock”) of Kodiak Sciences Inc. (the “Issuer”) directly held by each of the Funds, which may be deemed to be indirectly beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.

  

Holder  Common Stock 
667, L.P.   1,154,578 
Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P.   13,526,726 
Total   14,681,304 

  

On September 29, 2021, 667 and Life Sciences exercised warrants to acquire 11,184 shares and 138,815 shares, respectively, of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, with such warrants having an expiration date of August 11, 2022 (the “2022 Warrants”). 667 and Life Sciences exercised the 2022 Warrants on a cashless basis resulting in the Issuer withholding 2 and 14, respectively, of the 2022 Warrant shares in lieu of paying the exercise price in cash and issuing to 667 and Life Sciences the remaining 11,182 and 138,801 shares of Common Stock, respectively.

 

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 Issuer’s Board of Directors (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, receives non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (“Stock Options”). Felix J. Baker holds 24,747 vested Stock Options that have an exercise price of $10.13 per share and expire on June 2, 2029, 4,135 vested Stock Options that have an exercise price of $62.50 per share and expire on June 7, 2030, 7,106 vested Stock Options that have an exercise price of $54.12 per share and expire on June 29, 2030, and 7,368 Stock Options which were granted on June 30, 2021, have an exercise price of $93.00 per share, expire on June 29, 2031, and which will vest on the earlier of June 30, 2022 or one day prior to the next annual meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders. 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 Life Sciences during the sixty days preceding the filing of this statement using its working capital. All purchase transactions were effected in the open market directly with a broker-dealer. Except as disclosed herein, none of the Reporting Persons nor their affiliates has effected any other transactions in securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.
