Explanation of Responses:

1. This Form 4 reports securities disposed of pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated July 16, 2023, by and among Pardes Biosciences, Inc. (the "Issuer"), MediPacific, Inc. ("Parent") and MediPacific Sub, Inc. ("Purchaser"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, pursuant to which Purchaser completed a tender offer (the "Offer") for shares of the Issuer, $0.0001 par value per share, and thereafter merged with and into the Issuer (the "Merger") effective as of August 31, 2023 (the "Effective Time"). In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the 16,813,146 shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons were automatically cancelled for no consideration.

2. Consisted of shares beneficially owned by FS Development Holdings II, LLC, Foresite Capital Management V, LLC, Foresite Capital Opportunity Fund V, L.P., Foresite Capital Opportunity Management V, LLC and Foresite Capital Fund V, L.P., and of which Dr. Tananbaum may be deemed to have had a pecuniary interest.

3. At the Effective Time, Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, and each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time automatically converted into and became one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 of the Issuer (representing 1,000 shares in the aggregate), with the Issuer surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

4. The shares are beneficially owned by Parent. Parent is wholly owned by Foresite Capital Opportunity Fund V, L.P. Dr. Tananbaum is the managing member of Foresite Capital Opportunity Management V, LLC, which is the general partner of Foresite Capital Opportunity Fund V, L.P. Dr. Tananbaum may be deemed to have a pecuniary interest in the shares beneficially owned by Parent.

5. On July 16, 2023, the Issuer's Board of Directors vested in full each option to purchase shares granted under an Issuer equity plan (each, a "Company Stock Option") that was outstanding and unvested as of that date. As of the Effective Time, each in-the-money Company Stock Option that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled, and, in exchange therefor, the holder of such cancelled in-the-money Company Stock Option was entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Stock Option, (i) an amount in cash (less applicable tax withholdings and without interest) equal to the product of (x) the total number of shares subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the excess of $2.13 over the applicable exercise price per share under such Company Stock Option and (ii) one contingent value right for each share subject thereto.

6. On July 16, 2023, the Issuer's Board of Directors vested in full each unvested Company Stock Option. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each Company Stock Option that was not in the money as of the Effective Time was cancelled for no consideration at the Effective Time.
