On May 20, 2020, Northwest Biotherapeutics,
Inc. (the “Company”) reported in a Form 8-K that 233 million warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock had expired, would expire, or had been suspended through November 1, 2020. The Company has recently received questions
concerning the status of those 233 million warrants and options and so provides the following updates:
Of the 233 million total, 62 million were
warrants that had expired in May 2020 or were due to expire in June 2020. Approximately all 62 million such warrants have expired
as of November 2020.
The remaining 171 million were warrants
and options held by a group of significant long-term shareholders and the Company’s CEO, Linda Powers. The exercise of these
171 million warrants and options was previously suspended through November 1, 2020 as reported by the Company in May 2020. Approximately
157 million of those 171 million warrants and options have now been suspended through December 15, 2020.
Furthermore, the holders have agreed to
suspend the exercise of approximately 21 million additional warrants through December 15, 2020 for a total of approximately 178
million new suspensions.
Consequently, approximately 274 million
warrants and options are now suspended through December 15, 2020: the 178 million warrants and options as reported here plus approximately
96 million warrants suspended earlier in connection with new share purchases.
In consideration for the forgoing suspensions,
the Company has agreed to extend the term of each suspended warrant by 45 days and issue approximately 5 million warrants to the
holders of the 178 million suspended warrants and options.
No material number of warrants has expired
since June 2020.
