Exhibit 99.2

September 24, 2014

Board of Directors

Cardica, Inc.

900 Saginaw Drive

Redwood City, California 94063

To the Board of Directors of Cardica:

Broadfin Capital, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Broadfin”) appreciates the opportunity to speak with the Chairman of the Board and the CEO of Cardica, Inc. (“Cardica” or the “Company”) yesterday. We hope this is a sign that we can move forward more expeditiously than we have in the past in finding an amicable resolution regarding the composition of the Board of Directors of Cardica (the “Board”).

To aid constructive discussions, Broadfin is willing to enter into a reasonable confidentiality agreement with Cardica. We want to assure Cardica that the Company’s confidential information will be appropriately protected. We believe all our nominees should have full access to all the information that directors of Cardica would typically receive so Cardica can gain the full benefit of our nominees’ extensive experience with early stage healthcare companies. To expedite this process, we have attached a copy of the confidentiality agreement with our comments.

In turn, if the Board is genuinely committed to engage with us constructively and avoid a proxy contest as and you have claimed, we would expect a prompt and formal settlement proposal by the Company on improving the current composition of the Board with the addition of our nominees. We look forward to receiving from you a revised draft of the settlement agreement outlining your offer to meaningfully reconstitute the Board so we can enter into a definitive settlement agreement simultaneously with entering into a confidentiality agreement.

It should be readily apparent that our Nominees are highly-qualified and accomplished individuals of the highest caliber with the skills and experience necessary to lead Cardica in this critical time. Their qualifications to serve as directors of the Company are set forth in our Nomination Letter which includes all information with respect to the Nominees that would be required to be disclosed for director candidates in proxy materials pursuant to Regulation 14A. As such, we see no legitimate reason why Cardica should condition any settlement agreement with us on conducting prior interviews with our candidates. Our nominees have no interest in participating in a purported evaluation process as a mere formality so that the Company can attempt to cloak its intransigence in an appearance of constructive engagement. We are prepared to make our nominees available for interviews but only after we have reached a settlement for the full resolution of our concerns, including the addition of Broadfin’s nominees to the Board, subject to the Nominating Committee’s confirmation of their qualifications.

This is a critical juncture for Cardica, and we hope the Board recognizes its fiduciary responsibility and embraces our offer to help Cardica strengthen its Board so that it may be best positioned to address the challenges it faces, and capitalizes on the future opportunities it can hope to capture over the long term.

Regards,

In consideration of Cardica’s providing, or causing to be provided, Confidential Information to the Receiving Party and to the Recipient’s Affiliates of such Receiving Party, such Receiving Party agrees that it shall (and shall cause its Recipient’s Affiliates to):

(a)     hold confidential and not disclose all Confidential Information provided by Cardica or Cardica’s Affiliates (other than to Recipient’s Affiliates having a reasonable need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the permitted purposes hereunder who have either (i) been informed of the terms of and their obligations under this Agreement and have agreed to be bound hereby, or (ii) are subject to existing confidentiality obligations to the Receiving Party providing comparable substantive confidentiality and non-use protection to Cardica for the Confidential Information as set forth herein), without the prior written consent of Cardica;

(b)      use such Confidential Information only for the Purpose, and for no other purposes whatsoever, except with the prior written consent of Cardica;

(c)     return or destroy all written or recorded Confidential Information in the form provided by Cardica or its Cardica’s Affiliates (including all copies thereof) to Cardica within 30 days of receipt by the Receiving Party of a written request therefor from Cardica; and

4.             Exceptions to the Confidentiality and Non-Use Obligations. Confidential Information under this Agreement shall not include information that:

(a)     was known to the Receiving Party or the Recipient’s Affiliates prior to the receipt of the Confidential Information from Cardica or Cardica’s Affiliates; or

In any such event, the Receiving Party or Recipient’s Affiliate making such disclosure shall provide only such limited Confidential Information as it is advised by written opinion of counsel is necessary to satisfy such requirement and shall exercise its best reasonable efforts to obtain assurance from the recipient that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information.

The parties agree that the state and federal courts situated in San Mateo County in the State of California shall have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any disputes with respect to this Agreement or the Confidential Information, with each party irrevocably consenting to the jurisdiction thereof for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Confidential Information, and each party hereto irrevocably waives its rights to trial by jury with respect thereto.
