**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

As described below under Item 5.07 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, on January 24, 2023, Health Sciences Acquisitions Corporation 2, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "Company" or "HSAC2"), convened an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders (the "Meeting") to consider and vote upon, among other things, the previously announced Business Combination (as defined below) of HSAC Olympus Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a majority-owned subsidiary of HSAC2 ("Merger Sub"), with Orchestra BioMed, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Orchestra").

At the Meeting, the Company's shareholders approved, among other items, the Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Equity Incentive Plan"). A description of the material terms of the Equity Incentive Plan is included in HSAC2's definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 12, 2022 (the "Proxy Statement/Prospectus"), which description is incorporated herein by reference. Such description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Equity Incentive Plan, the form of which is attached as <u>Annex D</u>, to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and is also incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.**

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 5, 2022 by HSAC2 with the SEC, HSAC2 entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 4, 2022 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 21, 2022 and Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 21, 2022 (the "Merger Agreement")), with Merger Sub and Orchestra, pursuant to which, among other things, HSAC2 will be domesticated as a Delaware corporation and will be renamed "Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc." ("New Orchestra") and, promptly thereafter, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Orchestra with Orchestra surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Orchestra (the "Business Combination").

On August 8, 2022, HSAC2 filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement"), which includes the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, with the SEC in connection with the Business Combination. On December 16, 2022, the Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC.

On January 24, 2022, HSAC2 held the Meeting, in connection with the proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The Meeting was held at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time at the offices of Loeb & Loeb LLP at 345 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10154 USA and virtually via live webcast at https://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HSAQ2022SM2.

On December 7, 2022, the record date for the Meeting, there were 11,212,117 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of HSAC2 ("HSAC2 Ordinary Shares") outstanding and entitled to vote at the Meeting. At the Meeting, there were 9,777,562 shares voted by proxy or in person, which is 87.20% of the total HSAC2 Ordinary Shares outstanding on the record date for the Meeting and therefore constituted a quorum for the transaction of business.

Summarized below are the results of the matters submitted to a vote at the Meeting. All nine (9) proposals (the "Proposals") were approved by the Company's shareholders.

**Item 8.01** **Other Events**

Based on the results of the Meeting, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other closing conditions as described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the closing date of the Business Combination is anticipated to be in January 2023.

**Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

The statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipates," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this report may include, for example, statements about our ability to complete our initial business combination; our success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, our officers, key employees or directors following our initial business combination; the delisting of our securities from Nasdaq or an inability to have our securities listed on Nasdaq following a business combination; the potential liquidity and trading of our securities; and the lack of a market for our securities. Factors that can affect future results include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition" in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws and/or if and when management knows or has a reasonable basis on which to conclude that previously disclosed projections are no longer reasonably attainable.
