This statement relates to the acquisition and subsequent disposition of Shares by the Reporting Persons.  The Shares acquired by the Reporting Persons were acquired for the purpose of making an investment in the Issuer and not with the intention of acquiring control of the Issuer's business on behalf of the Reporting Persons’ respective advisory clients.
 
The Reporting Persons previously were granted and exercised the right to appoint a representative to the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Issuer, so as to permit active monitoring of the operations of the Issuer.  As indicated above, Samuel P. Wertheimer served as the Reporting Persons’ representative on the Board. Effective June 11, 2009 Dr. Samuel Wertheimer resigned from his position as director on the Board of Directors of Biodel Inc.
 
The Reporting Persons from time to time intend to review their investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s Shares in particular, as well as other developments and investment opportunities.  Based upon such review, the Reporting Persons will take such actions in the future as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time.  If the Reporting Persons believe that further investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether because of the market price of the Issuer's Shares or otherwise, they may acquire Shares or other securities of the Issuer either in the open market or in one or more privately negotiated transactions. Similarly, depending on market and other factors, the Reporting Persons may determine to dispose of some or all of the Shares currently owned by the Reporting Persons or otherwise acquired by the Reporting Persons either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
 
Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons have not formulated any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, (e) any material change in the Issuer's capitalization or dividend policy, (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure, (g) any change in the Issuer's charter or bylaws or other or instrument corresponding thereto or other action which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (h) causing a class of the Issuer's securities to be deregistered or delisted, (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
 
 
Item 5.  
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
(a)-(b)  As of this date of this filing, OrbiMed Advisors LLC, OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC and Samuel D. Isaly may be deemed directly or indirectly, including by reason of their mutual affiliation, to be the beneficial owners of the Shares described in Item 3.  Based upon information contained in the most recent available filing by the Issuer with the SEC, such Shares constitute approximately 4.998% of the issued and outstanding Shares.  As described above in Item 2, Isaly owns, pursuant to the terms of the limited liability company
 

 
agreement of each of OrbiMed Advisors LLC and OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC, a controlling interest in the outstanding limited liability company interests of such entity.  As a result, Isaly, OrbiMed Advisors LLC and OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC share power to direct the vote and to direct the disposition of the Shares described in Item 3.
 
(c)  Except as disclosed in Item 3, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Shares during the past sixty (60) days.
 
(d)  Not applicable.
 
(e)  Not applicable.
 
Item 6.  
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
In addition to the relationships between the Reporting Persons described in Item 5, OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC is the general partner of Caduceus and Caduceus QP, each a private equity fund, pursuant to the terms of their respective limited partnership agreements.  OrbiMed Advisors LLC, through UBS Juniper Management, L.L.C., a joint venture with UBS Fund Advisor, L.L.C., acts as investment manager of Juniper, a registered investment company, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement.  Pursuant to these agreements and relationships, OrbiMed Advisors LLC and OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC have discretionary investment management authority with respect to the assets of Caduceus, Caduceus QP, and Juniper.  Such authority includes the power to vote and otherwise dispose of securities purchased by Caduceus, Caduceus QP and Juniper.  The number of outstanding Shares of the Issuer attributable to each such entity is 773,123, 289,463 and 123,007, respectively.  OrbiMed Advisors LLC, pursuant to its authority under its investment advisory contract with Juniper, may be considered to hold indirectly 123,007 Shares.  OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC, pursuant to its authority under its investment advisory contracts with Caduceus and Caduceus QP, may be considered to hold indirectly 1,062,586 Shares.  
 
As noted in Item 4, Wertheimer has been granted a number of Director’s Stock Options and is obligated to transfer any Shares issued pursuant to such options to the Reporting Persons, who are obligated to distribute the Shares to Caduceus, Caduceus QP and Juniper on a pro-rata basis.  Accordingly, the number of Director’s Stock Options attributable to Caduceus, Caduceus QP and Juniper is 36,917, 13,822 and 4,575, respectively.  Of these, OrbiMed Advisors LLC and OrbiMed Capital GP II LLC may be considered to hold indirectly 4,575 and 50,739 Director’s Stock Options, respectively.
 
Other than the agreements and the relationships mentioned above, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any persons with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, transfer or
 

 
voting of any of the Shares, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving of withholding of proxies.
