Ligand Pharmaceuticals Incorporated Revenue
Participation Right Purchase and Sale Agreement and Purchase of Shares
On July 31, 2025, Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc.
(the “Company”) entered into a revenue participation right purchase and sale agreement (the “Revenue
Purchase and Sale Agreement”) with Ligand Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (the “Purchaser”). Under
the terms of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, in exchange for payment of $35.0 million (the “Investment Amount”),
less certain reimbursable expenses, the Purchaser acquired from the Company the right to receive tiered revenue payments (the “Revenue
Interest”) with respect to revenue (including certain licensing revenue) received by the Company in a calendar year in connection
with worldwide net product sales, or other product revenue received by, by the Company and its licensees (“Annual Net Sales”)
of (a) the Company’s BACKBEAT Cardiac Neuromodulation TherapyTM, also known as atrioventricular interval modulation (“AVIM”)
therapy (the “Primary Product”) in the field of hypertension treatment and (b) the Company’s Virtue®
Sirolimus AngioInfusion Balloon (“Virtue SAB”) (the “Secondary Product” and together
with the Primary Product, the “Products”) in the field of coronary artery treatment.
Subject to the Performance Ratchet (as defined
below), the table below summarizes the Revenue Interest rates based on the percentage of Annual Net Sales of the Products:
| Annual Net Sales |
Applicable Purchaser Revenue Interest Rate |
| Less than or equal to $100 million, in any field |
17.0% |
| Greater than $100 million, only in the fields described above |
4.0% |
Pursuant to the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement,
the Investment Amount shall be paid in two tranches: (i) $20.0 million payable at the closing of the transaction (the “Closing”)
and (ii) $15.0 million payable two hundred and seventy days following the Closing (the “Second Installment”),
provided certain conditions have been met. In accordance with the terms of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Applicable Purchaser
Revenue Interest Rates set forth in the table above will incrementally increase from 17.0% and 4.0% up to 20.0% and 7.0%, respectively,
if the Company does not achieve certain enrollment milestones relating to the BACKBEAT clinical study through January 1, 2027 (the “Performance
Ratchet”).
The Revenue Interest in respect of Annual Net
Sales of the Products will end on the date in which no Product is being developed or commercialized by or on behalf of the Company, any
of its affiliates, or any of its or their licensees or distributors and Purchaser has received the last Revenue Interest payment payable
under the terms of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement. The obligations arising under the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement are
secured by security interests in, and pledges over, the Revenue Interest, the Revenue Participation Right (as defined in the Revenue Purchase
and Sale Agreement) and the Company’s interests in the Products and associated intellectual property rights, subject to certain
agreed security principles, permitted liens and other customary exceptions and qualifications, and the security interests in the Products
and associated intellectual property rights of the Company are subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the outstanding
indebtedness under the Hercules Loan Agreement (as defined in the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement). The Revenue Purchase and Sale
Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and indemnities of the Company and Purchaser, and customary covenants on the
part of the Company. Closing of the transaction is subject to certain conditions including, among others, the closing of the Ligand Stock
Purchase Agreement (as defined below), which is contingent upon the closing of the Subsequent Offering (as defined below).
In connection with the sale of the Revenue Interest,
and pursuant to the terms of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to the Purchaser, at the Closing,
a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock” and, such shares underlying the Warrant, the “Warrant Shares”),
at an exercise price equal to a 30% premium to the higher of (i) the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global
Market for the 30 trading days preceding the issuance of such Warrant as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a trading day from 9:30
a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) or (ii) the public offering price per share of the Common Stock in the Subsequent
Offering (as defined below); provided, however, in no event shall the Exercise Price be below the “Minimum Price” as
such term is defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). The exercise price of the Warrant and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of the Warrant are subject to adjustments for stock splits, combinations, stock dividends or similar events. Pursuant to the
terms of the Warrant, the Warrant Shares shall vest and become exercisable as follows: (i) 1,142,857 of the Warrant Shares (the “First
Tranche”) shall vest on the issue date of the Warrant; however, the Warrant may not be exercised for six months after the
issuance of the Warrant, which is expected to occur on the date of the closing of the Subsequent Offering (the “Initial Exercise
Date”) and (ii) 857,143 of the Warrant Shares shall vest on the date of payment of the Second Installment. In the event
that the Second Installment is not paid, the Warrant shall only be exercisable with respect to the First Tranche. The Warrant will be
exercisable for ten years from the date of issuance.
Concurrent with the execution of the Revenue Purchase
and Sale Agreement, the Purchaser also agreed to purchase $5.0 million of shares of Common Stock (the “Ligand Private Placement
Shares”) pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, dated as of July 31, 2025, between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Ligand
Stock Purchase Agreement”), at a purchase price per share equal to the public offering price per share in the Company’s
next public offering of its equity securities (the “Subsequent Offering”). The closing of the Ligand Stock Purchase
Agreement is contingent upon, among other things, the receipt by the Company of gross proceeds of at least $30,000,000 in the aggregate
pursuant to (a) the Subsequent Offering and (b) the terms of the Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement (as defined below). The Ligand Stock
Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchaser, and customary covenants on the
part of the Company.
The foregoing descriptions of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement,
the Ligand Stock Purchase Agreement and the Warrant are summaries only, do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety
by the full terms and conditions of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Ligand Stock Purchase Agreement and the Warrant. The
Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Ligand Stock Purchase Agreement and the form of Warrant are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and
4.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) and are incorporated herein by
reference.
Purhase of Shares by Medtronic and Loan Agreement
with Medtronic
On July 31, 2025, the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Orchestra BioMed, Inc. and BackBeat Medical, LLC (“BackBeat Medical”), entered into a Loan Agreement
(the “Loan Agreement”) with Medtronic Inc. (“Medtronic”), pursuant to which Medtronic
agreed to extend a convertible loan to the Company in the aggregate original principal amount of $20.0 million (the “Loan”).
The Loan is evidenced by a secured subordinated convertible promissory note (the “Note”) of the Company. The
issuance of the Note to Medtronic and the funding of the Loan will take place on April 27, 2026 subject to certain closing conditions
as described in the Loan Agreement.
The Note will accrue simple interest at a rate
of 11% per annum. The Note does not allow for prepayment without the prior consent of Medtronic. Unless
earlier converted, or redeemed, the Note will mature on April 27, 2031 (the “Repayment Date”). In
addition, the payment or other satisfaction of the obligations set forth in the Loan Agreement are subordinate in right of payment to
the prior payment in full of the senior obligations. The obligations arising under the Loan Agreement and the Note are secured by security
interests in, and pledges over, the Company’s assets, subject to certain agreed security principles, permitted liens and other customary
exceptions and qualifications.
The principal balance of the Note, together with
all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (collectively, the “Balance”) will automatically convert into a revenue
share (the “Revenue Share Credit”), if U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval
of a Medtronic device incorporating AVIM is achieved prior to the Repayment Date. Upon conversion of the then outstanding Balance the
Company shall pay to Medtronic the Revenue Share Credit, which shall equal 15% of the revenue share amounts that the Company receives
under the Exclusive License and Collaboration Agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”), by and among the Company,
BackBeat Medical, LLC and Medtronic, dated June 30, 2022, until such time as the total Revenue Share Credit payments equal $40.0 million.
The Loan Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the Loan Agreement contains customary events of default that entitle Medtronic
to cause the Company’s indebtedness under the Note to become immediately due and payable, and to exercise remedies against the Company
and the collateral securing the Loan. Upon the occurrence and for the duration of an event of default, an additional default interest
rate equal to 2.0% per annum may apply to all obligations owed under the Loan Agreement.
In addition, concurrently with the execution of
the Loan Agreement, Medtronic, through its affiliate Covidien Group S.à.r.l. (“Covidien”) has agreed
to purchase an aggregate amount of up to $12.0 million of shares of Common Stock (the “Medtronic Private Placement Shares”
and, together with the Ligand Private Placement Shares, the “Private Placement Shares”) pursuant to a stock
purchase agreement, dated as of July 31, 2025, between the Company and Covidien (the “Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement”
and, together with the Ligand Stock Purchase Agreement, the “Stock Purchase Agreements”), at a purchase price
per share equal to the public offering price per share in the Subsequent Offering. The Medtronic Private Placement Shares will consist
of (i) $10.0 million of shares of Common Stock and (ii) additional shares of Common Stock on a proportional basis equal to 0.05714 multiplied
by the amount of gross proceeds raised in the Subsequent Offering in excess of $35.0 million, up to a cap of $2.0 million. The closing
of Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement is contingent upon, among other things, the occurrence of the closing of the Subsequent Offering
and the simultaneous closing of the Ligand Private Placement resulting in the receipt by the Company of gross proceeds of at least $25,000,000
in the aggregate. The Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company and Medtronic,
and customary covenants on the part of the Company.
The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement,
the Note and the Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement are summaries only, do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety
by the full terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, the Note and the Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement. The Loan Agreement, the Note
and the Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement are filed as Exhibits 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, to this Current Report and are incorporated
herein by reference.
Amendment of Exclusive License and Collaboration
Agreement
On July 31, 2025, the Company, BackBeat Medical
and Medtronic entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Collaboration Agreement to provide, among other
things, a development and commercialization framework for future AVIM-therapy integration into a dual-chamber leadless pacemaker.
Closing of the Amendment will be subject to customary
conditions for a transaction of this type as well as: (i) the closing of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement; (ii) the closing of
the Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement; (iii) the receipt by the Company of (or contractual right of the Company to receive) gross proceeds
of $35.0 million in the aggregate pursuant to (a) the Subsequent Offering, (b) the terms of the Medtronic Stock Purchase Agreement and
(c) the terms of the Ligand Stock Purchase Agreement; and (iv) the proceeds from the Note being used solely for the continued funding
and support of the ongoing BACKBEAT clinical study and such other activities directly associated with the BACKBEAT clinical study and
the Collaboration Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Amendment is a summary only, does
not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by the full terms and conditions of the Amendment, a copy of which is expected
to be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s next quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Amendments to Hercules Loan and Security Agreement
and Warrant Agreements
On July 31, 2025, the Company, certain of its
subsidiaries, the lenders named therein (the “Hercules Lenders”) and Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”)
entered into that certain second amendment (the “LSA Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as
of November 6, 2024, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 30, 2024 (the “Loan
and Security Agreement”), which, among other things, amended the existing Loan and Security Agreement to (i) delay the initial
date upon which the Company has to begin amortizing term loans under the Loan and Security Agreement from (a) December 1, 2026 (with amortization
payments delayed to as late December 1, 2027 if certain conditions were met) to (b) July 1, 2027 (with amortization payments delayed to
as late as January 1, 2028 if certain conditions are met); and (ii) increase by $15,000,000 (from $20,000,000 to $35,000,000) the amount
that that may be borrowed by the Company in the discretion of the lender’s investment committee’s and (iii) eliminate the
Company’s ability to draw up to $15,000,000 if certain milestones are achieved.
Effectiveness of the LSA Amendment will be subject
to customary conditions for a transaction of this type as well as: (i) delivery of the Warrant Agreement Amendments (as defined below),
(ii) the receipt by the Company of (or contractual right of the Company to receive) gross proceeds of $70.0 million in the aggregate pursuant
to (a) the Subsequent Offering, (b) the Stock Purchase Agreements, (c) the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, and (d) the Loan Agreement
and (iii) the closing of the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement.
In addition, concurrently with the effectiveness
of the LSA Amendment, the Company will enter into amendments to the warrant agreements it entered on November 6, 2024 (the “Hercules
Warrant Agreements”) with the lenders under the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement Amendments”).
As a result of the Warrant Agreement Amendments, among other things:
| · | the exercise price under the Hercules Warrant Agreements (“Exercise Price”) will go from $5.74
to the lower of (i) $5.74 and (ii) 130% of the lowest effective price paid per share of Common Stock in the Company’s Next Equity
Financing (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement Amendments); and |
| · | the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Hercules Warrant Agreements will go from (a) 2% of
aggregate principal amount of Term Loan Advances (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) divided by the Exercise Price to (b)
4% of aggregate principal amount of Term Loan Advances divided by the Exercise Price. |
The foregoing description of the LSA Amendment
and the Warrant Agreement Amendments are summaries only, do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by the full
terms and conditions of the LSA Amendment and Warrant Agreement Amendments, respectively. The LSA Amendment and form of Warrant Agreement
Amendments are filed as Exhibits 10.6 and 4.1, respectively, to this Current Report and are incorporated herein by reference.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreements
and the Warrant, the Company, the Purchaser and Medtronic have agreed to enter into a Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached
to the Stock Purchase Agreements (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) at the Closing, pursuant to which the
Company will agree to file a shelf registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) providing for the
resale of the Private Placement Shares and the Warrant Shares within 90 calendar days of the closing of the Stock Purchase Agreements,
to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective after its filing at the earliest

Item 8.01. Other Information.
Certain Unaudited Preliminary June 30, 2025
Financial Results
Although the Company’s financial results
for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 are not yet finalized, based on currently available information, the Company expects its cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments to be approximately $33.9 million as of June 30, 2025.
The preliminary results
set forth above are based on management’s initial review of the Company’s operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and
are subject to completion of financial closing procedures. The preliminary financial results in this Current Report have been prepared
by, and are the responsibility of, management. Actual results may differ materially from these preliminary results as a result of the
completion of financial closing procedures, final adjustments, and other developments arising between now and the time that the Company’s
financial results are finalized. In addition, these preliminary results are not a comprehensive statement of the Company’s financial
results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s results for any future period.
Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or applied
agreed-upon procedures with respect to the preliminary financial results. Accordingly, Ernst & Young LLP does not express an opinion
or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
Terumo Agreement
As previously disclosed,
the Company is in a mediation procedure with Terumo Corporation and Terumo Medical Corporation (collectively, “Terumo”)
pursuant to the distribution agreement, dated June 13, 2019, by and among the Company and Terumo (the “Terumo Agreement”)and
the International Mediation Rules of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution (“ICDR”). The mediation
is intended to assist in potentially resolving disagreements and facilitating the completion of negotiations related to restructuring,
replacing or terminating the Terumo Agreement. The Terumo Agreement provides that matters that are not resolved through mediation are
to be resolved by binding arbitration conducted under the auspices of the ICDR in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules.
If the mediation does not lead to a timely agreement or resolution, or, if applicable, the Company does not prevail in arbitration, or
if the Terumo Agreement is terminated, the Company’s commercialization plans for Virtue SAB may be adversely impacted. However,
any termination of the Terumo Agreement in the context of mediation, an arbitration or otherwise would allow the Company to pursue an
alternative strategic collaboration or other transaction with a different partner. The Company currently expects the formal mediation
to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2025. Regardless of the mediation process with Terumo, the Company intends to initiate
enrollment of the Virtue SAB trial, its pivotal study of Virtue SAB for coronary in-stent restenosis in the U.S. during the second half
of 2025, as well as to continue other product development efforts related to Virtue SAB.
Update on BACKBEAT
Study
As previously disclosed,
the Company estimated completion of enrollment of the BACKBEAT global pivotal study (the “BACKBEAT Study”) in
the first half of 2026. The Company currently expects enrollment of the BACKBEAT study to be completed in mid-2026.
Further, as previously
disclosed, during the third quarter of 2024, we implemented an FDA-approved amendment to the BACKBEAT study protocol for existing and
newly activated study sites. The Company is also in the process of implementing additional FDA-approved amendments to the BACKBEAT global
pivotal study that are expected to significantly expand patient eligibility at participating clinical sites as well as streamline patient
screening and study workflow.
Forward-Looking Statements
