Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On January 30, 2015, Zosano Pharma Corporation (the “Company”) issued and sold 1,363,636 shares (the “Shares”) of its of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), to Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”), pursuant to a Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of November 21, 2014 between the Company and Lilly (the “Purchase Agreement”), for an aggregate cash purchase price of $14,999,996. The Company paid a private placement fee in an amount equal to 3.5% of the aggregate cash purchase price for the Shares, or $525,000, to the representatives of the underwriters in the Company’s initial public offering of shares of its Common Stock, the closing of which took place concurrently with the Company’s issuance and sale of the Shares to Lilly.

The issuance and sale of the Shares to Lilly was deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (or Regulation D promulgated thereunder) as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering. Lilly represented and warranted to the Company in the Purchase Agreement that Lilly is acquiring the Shares for its own account, for investment and not for, with a view to, or in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that Lilly is an “accredited investor” as used in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act for purposes of acquiring the Shares. The Company reasonably believed immediately prior to its issuance and sale of the Shares to Lilly that Lilly was acquiring the Shares for its own account, for investment and not for, with a view to, or in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof, and that Lilly was an accredited investor.
