Item 1.
Security and Issuer
 
This Schedule 13D (the “Statement”) relates to the common stock of Relypsa, Inc. (the “Common Stock”), a corporation organized under the laws of the state of Delaware (the “Issuer”), with its principal executive offices located at 700 Saginaw Drive, Redwood, California 94063.  The Common Stock is listed on the NASDAQ National Market under the ticker symbol “RLYP.”  Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.
 
On April 16, 2014, the Issuer announced the closing of an underwritten public offering of 4,130,611 shares of Common Stock (“Shares”) at $24.50 per Share, which included the purchase by the underwriters of 538,775 Shares pursuant to their option to purchase additional Shares at the public offering price (the “Share Issuance”).  As a result of the Share Issuance, the Issuer’s total number of outstanding Shares increased to 33,844,979 (the “Outstanding Share Increase”).  The Reporting Persons did not participate in, or acquire or dispose of any Shares in the Shares Issuance.  As a result of the Share Issuance (and more specifically, the Outstanding Share Increase), the percentage of outstanding Shares that the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of was reduced by more than one percent of the Issuer’s Shares outstanding after completion of the Share Issuance.
 
Item 2.
Identity and Background
 
(a)               This Statement is being filed by OrbiMed Advisors LLC (“Advisors”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware, OrbiMed Capital GP IV LLC (“GP IV”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware, and Samuel D. Isaly (“Isaly”), an individual (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).
 
(b) – (c)      Advisors, a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, is the sole managing member of GP IV, which is the sole general partner of OrbiMed Private Investments IV, LP (“OPI IV”), which holds Shares, as more particularly described in Item 3 below.  Advisors has its principal offices at 601 Lexington Avenue, 54th Floor, New York, New York 10022.
 
GP IV has its principal offices at 601 Lexington Avenue, 54th Floor, New York, New York 10022.  Isaly, a natural person, owns a controlling interest in Advisors.

(i)                name;

Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
Not applicable.  As described more fully in Item 1 above, the event giving rise to the obligation of the Reporting Persons to file this Amendment did not involve any transactions effected by one or more Reporting Persons with respect to the Shares.
 
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
 
Not applicable.  As described more fully in Item 1 above, the events giving rise to the obligation of the Reporting Persons to file this Statement did not involve any transactions effected by one or more Reporting Persons with respect to the Shares.
 
The Reporting Persons from time to time intend to review their investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s Shares in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities.  Based upon such review, the Reporting Persons will take such actions in the future as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time.  If the Reporting Persons believe that further investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether because of the market price of Shares or otherwise, they may acquire Shares or other securities of the Issuer either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.  Similarly, depending on market and other factors, the Reporting Persons may determine to dispose of some or all of the Shares currently owned by the Reporting Persons or otherwise acquired by the Reporting Persons either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
 
Except as set forth in this Statement, the Reporting Persons have not formulated any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:  (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the Issuer’s capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, (g) any change in the Issuer’s charter or bylaws or other instrument corresponding thereto or other action which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (h) causing a class of the Issuer’s securities to be deregistered or delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
 
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
(a)-(b)         As of the date of this filing, Advisors, GP IV and Isaly may be deemed, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the Act, directly or indirectly, including by reason of their mutual affiliation, to be the beneficial owners of the Shares described in Item 3 above.  Based upon information contained in the most recent available filing by the Issuer with the SEC, such Shares constitute approximately 29.37% of the issued and outstanding Shares.  Advisors, pursuant to its authority as the sole managing member of GP IV, the sole general partner of OPI IV, may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the Shares held by OPI IV.  GP IV, pursuant to its authority as the general partner of OPI IV, may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the Shares held by OPI IV.  Isaly, pursuant to his authority as the managing member of Advisors and owner of a controlling interest in Advisors, pursuant to its limited liability company agreement, may also be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the Shares attributable to Advisors.  As a result, Isaly, Advisors and GP IV share the power to direct the vote and to direct the disposition of the Shares described in Item 3 above.
 
(c)               Except as disclosed in Item 3, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Shares during the past sixty (60) days.
 
(d)               Not applicable.
 
 
6

 
 
(e)               Not applicable.
 
Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationship with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
 
In addition to the relationships between the Reporting Persons described in Items 2, 3 and 5 above, GP IV is the sole general partner of OPI IV, pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement of OPI IV.  Advisors is the sole managing member of GP IV, pursuant to the terms of the limited liability company agreement of GP IV.  Pursuant to these agreements and relationships, Advisors and GP IV have discretionary investment management authority with respect to the assets of OPI IV.  Such authority includes the power of GP IV to vote and otherwise dispose of securities purchased by OPI IV.  The number of outstanding Shares attributable to OPI IV is 9,941,551 Shares.  Advisors may be considered to hold indirectly 9,941,551 Shares, and GP IV may be considered to hold indirectly 9,941,551 Shares.
 
Jonathan Silverstein (“Silverstein”), a member of Advisors, has been a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer since August 2010, and, accordingly, the Reporting Persons may have the ability to affect and influence control of the Issuer.  On July 24, 2013, Silverstein was the recipient of a grant of options to purchase 10,140 Shares.  From time to time, Silverstein may receive additional stock options or other awards of equity-based compensation pursuant to the Issuer’s compensation arrangements for non-employee directors.  Pursuant to an agreement with the Reporting Persons, Silverstein is obligated to transfer any Shares issued under any such stock options or other awards to the Reporting Persons, which will distribute such Shares to OPI IV.
 
In connection with a purchase of Shares in the Issuer’s initial public offering, OPI IV entered into a lock-up agreement with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Cowen and Company, LLC (the “Lock-Up Agreement”).  In addition, OPI IV and certain other stockholders of the Issuer are parties to a second amended and restated investor rights agreement with the Issuer (the “Investor Rights Agreement”).  Summaries of the Lock-Up Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement are set forth at Item 6 of the original Statement.
 
Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, to the best of the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.
