  This statement is being filed by MPM BioEquities Adviser LLC (“MPM Adviser”), MPM BioEquities Master Fund, L.P. (“MPM”), MPM BioEquities GP L.P. (“MPM GP”), MPM BioEquities GP LLC (“MPM LLC”) and Kurt von Emster (“von Emster”), Robert W. Liptak (“Liptak”), Luke Evnin (“Evnin”) and Ansbert Gadicke (“Gadicke”) (collectively, the “Members”). MPM Adviser is the adviser of MPM, the direct and indirect general partners of which are MPM GP and MPM LLC. The Members are the individual members of MPM Adviser. MPM Adviser, MPM, MPM GP, MPM LLC and the Members are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Reporting Persons.” This statement hereby amends and supplements the Report on Schedule 13D originally filed on February 20, 2003 (the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Aradigm Corporation (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
 
Item 2.Identity and Background
  The following paragraph is added after the last paragraph of Item 2:

The obligations under the Voting Agreement have been terminated in accordance with its terms and therefore the Reporting Persons and the Other Shareholders may no longer be considered a Group for the purposes of Regulation 13D of the Act.

 
Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
  The following paragraph is added after the last paragraph of Item 3:

The obligations under the Voting Agreement have been terminated in accordance with its terms and therefore the Reporting Persons and the Other Shareholders may no longer be considered a Group for the purposes of Regulation 13D of the Act.

 
Item 4.Purpose of Transaction
 
 
 

10


 

       
Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
 
Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
  The following paragraph is added after the last paragraph of Item 6:

The obligations under the Voting Agreement have been terminated in accordance with its terms and the transactions pursuant to the Financing Purchase Agreement and the Warrant Pricing Agreement were consummated on March 10, 2003. The Reporting Persons and the Other Shareholders may no longer be considered a Group for the purposes of Regulation 13D of the Act and the Reporting Persons disclaim any membership in such Group. Upon termination of the Voting Agreement and consummation of the Financing, the Reporting Persons are direct beneficial owners of less than 5% of the Issuer’s Common Stock and are therefore not subject to the reporting obligations under Section 13(d) of the Act.
