Explanatory Note: This Amendment No. 3 relates to and amends the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D/A of Tang Capital Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Tang Capital Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and Kevin Tang, a United States citizen (each, a “Reporting Person” and collectively, the “Reporting Persons”), initially filed jointly by the Reporting Persons with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 18, 2017, and amended on August 24, 2018 and November 9, 2018 (as amended, the “Statement”), with respect to the Common Stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), of Odonate Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).
Items 3, 5 and 6 of the Statement are hereby amended to the extent hereinafter expressly set forth. Except as amended hereby, the original disclosure set forth in the Statement shall remain unchanged. All capitalized terms used and not expressly defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Statement.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 of the Statement is hereby amended to add the following:
Since November 9, 2018, the Reporting Persons have expended an aggregate of approximately $5,655,000 to purchase 363,700 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock. Such purchases were effected through the open market. The Common Stock was acquired in the ordinary course of business.

Tang Capital Partners, LP maintains commingled margin accounts with various financial institutions, which may extend margin credit to Tang Capital Partners, LP as and when required, to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts. The margin accounts may from time to time have debit balances. Since multiple different securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the shares of Common Stock reported herein.
