1. Organization and Description of Business

Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries NW Bio Gmbh, and Aracaris Capital, Ltd (collectively, the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our”) were organized to discover and develop innovative immunotherapies for cancer.

The Company is developing an experimental dendritic cell vaccine using its platform technology known as DCVax. DCVax is currently being tested for use in the treatment of certain types of cancers.

Cognate BioServices, Inc. (“Cognate BioServices”), which is a company related by common ownership (Note 9), provides the Company with mission critical contract manufacturing services, research and development services, distribution and logistics, and related services, in compliance with the Company’s specifications and the applicable regulatory requirements for clinical grade cellular products. The Company and Cognate BioServices are currently parties to a series of contracts providing for these services as more fully described below. The Company is dependent on Cognate BioServices to provide the manufacturing services, and any interruption of such services could potentially have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to proceed with its clinical trials. Cognate BioServices’ manufacturing facility for clinical-grade cellular products is located in Memphis, Tennessee. In addition, a Cognate affiliate in the UK (which was formerly part of Cognate BioServices) is preparing for production of DCVax-L products there.

Although there are many contract manufacturers for small molecule drugs and for biologics, there are only a few contract manufacturers in the U.S., and even fewer in Europe, that specialize in producing living cell products and that have a track record of success with regulatory authorities. The manufacturing of living cell products is highly specialized and entirely different than production of biologics: the physical facilities and equipment are different, the types of personnel and skill sets are different, and the processes are different. The regulatory requirements relating to manufacturing and cellular products are especially challenging and are one of the most frequent reasons for the development of a company’s cellular products to be put on clinical hold (i.e., stopped by regulatory authorities).

In addition, the Company’s programs require a large amount of capacity in these specialized manufacturing facilities. The Company’s products are fully personalized and not made in standardized batches: the Company’s products are made on demand, patient by patient, on an as needed basis.

2. Liquidity, Financial Condition and Management Plans

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company used approximately $16.0 million and $31.8 million of cash in its operating activities, respectively. The expenditures in 2017 have included substantial payments for expenses previously incurred in connection with the Phase III clinical trial of DCVax-L.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company raised approximately $16.0 million in equity and debt securities to fund its operations, and raised an additional $5 million from a third party who retired the 2014 Notes on the Company’s behalf (see Note 7 for further details). As expected for a company that is pre-revenue, the Company incurred a net loss of $10.3 million and $22.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company had current assets of $0.8 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $72.0 million at June 30, 2017. The Company owed an aggregate of $21.4 million of trade liabilities to related parties as of June 30, 2017 (after waiver by such related parties during this period of $3.75 million of payables owed to them by the Company).

The Company has not yet generated any material revenue from the sale of its products and is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties that are typically faced by biotechnology companies that devote substantially all of their efforts to R&D and clinical trials and do not yet have commercial products. The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future. The Company’s existing liquidity is not sufficient to fund its operations, anticipated capital expenditures, working capital and other financing requirements until the Company reaches significant revenues.  Until that time, the Company will need to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing, especially if the Company experiences downturns in its business that are more severe or longer than anticipated, or if the Company experiences significant increases in expense levels resulting from being a publicly-traded company or from expansion of operations.  If the Company attempts to obtain additional equity or debt financing, the Company cannot assume that such financing will be available to the Company on favorable terms, or at all.

Because of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has operated with going concern determinations throughout more than a decade, and so the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company did not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2017, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the six months ended June 30, 2017, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been derived from audited financial statements; however, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on April 17, 2017.

Use of Estimates

In preparing condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities in share-based payment arrangements, valuing environmental liabilities, estimating the fair value of financial instruments recorded as derivative liabilities, and estimating the useful lives of depreciable assets and whether impairment charges may apply.

Warrant Liability

The Company accounts for certain common stock warrants outstanding as a liability at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company's statements of operations. The fair value of the warrants issued by the Company has been estimated using Monte Carlo simulation and or a Black Scholes model.

Sequencing

As of October 13, 2016, the Company adopted a sequencing policy whereby all future instruments may be classified as a derivative liability with the exception of instruments related to share-based compensation issued to employees or directors.

Environmental Remediation Liabilities

The Company records environmental remediation liabilities for properties acquired. The environmental remediation liabilities are initially recorded at fair value. The liability is reduced for actual costs incurred in connection with the clean-up activities for each property. Upon completion of the clean-up, the environmental remediation liability is adjusted to equal the fair value of the remaining operation, maintenance and monitoring activities to be performed for the property. The amount of the additional liability resulting from the completion of the clean-up, if any, would be included in other income (expense). As of June 30, 2017, the Company estimated that the total environmental remediation costs associated with the purchase of the UK Facility will be approximately $6.2 million. This is a projected potential future cost. No such environmental costs have been incurred to date and none are currently pending. Contamination clean-up costs that improve the property from its original acquisition state will be capitalized as part of the property’s overall development costs. The Company engaged a third-party specialist to conduct certain surveys of the condition of the property which included, among other things, a preliminary analysis of potential environmental remediation exposures. The Company determined, based on information contained in the specialist’s report, that it would be required to estimate the fair value of an unconditional obligation to remediate specific ground contamination at an estimated fair value of approximately $6.2 million. The Company computed the fair value of this obligation using a probability weighted approach that measures the likelihood of the following two potential outcomes: (i) a higher probability requirement of erecting a protective barrier around the affected area at an estimated cost of approximately $4.5 million, and (ii) a lower probability requirement of having to excavate the affected area at an estimated cost of approximately $32.0 million. The Company’s estimate is preliminary and therefore subject to change as further studies are conducted, and as additional facts come to the Company’s attention. Environmental remediation efforts are complex, technical and subject to various uncertainties. Accordingly, it is at least reasonably possible that any changes in the Company’s estimate could materially differ from the management’s preliminary assessment discussed herein.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

Comprehensive Loss

The Company reports comprehensive loss and its components in its condensed consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments, affecting stockholders’ equity (deficit) that, under U.S, GAAP, are excluded from net loss.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred and consist primarily of clinical trial costs, related party manufacturing costs, consulting costs, contract research and development costs, clinical site costs and compensation costs. 

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2016 Annual Report.

Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements  

Compensation-Stock Compensation

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . Under ASU No. 2016-09, companies will no longer record excess tax benefits and certain tax deficiencies in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”). Instead, they will record all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement and the APIC pools will be eliminated. In addition, ASU No. 2016-09 eliminates the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before companies can recognize them. ASU No. 2016-09 also requires companies to present excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity. Furthermore, ASU No. 2016-09 will increase the amount an employer can withhold to cover income taxes on awards and still qualify for the exception to liability classification for shares used to satisfy the employer’s statutory income tax withholding obligation. An employer with a statutory income tax withholding obligation will now be allowed to withhold shares with a fair value up to the amount of taxes owed using the maximum statutory tax rate in the employee’s applicable jurisdiction(s). ASU No. 2016-09 requires a company to classify the cash paid to a tax authority when shares are withheld to satisfy its statutory income tax withholding obligation as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows. Under current U.S. GAAP, it was not specified how these cash flows should be classified. In addition, companies will now have to elect whether to account for forfeitures on share-based payments by (1) recognizing forfeitures of awards as they occur or (2) estimating the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjusting the estimate when it is likely to change, as is currently required. These aspects of ASU 2016-09 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted provided that all of the guidance is adopted in the same period. The Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 on January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Compensation-Stock Compensation

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting , which clarifies when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. It is effective prospectively for the annual period ending December 31, 2018 and interim periods within that annual period. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures, but does not expect it to have a significant impact.

NORTHWEST BIOTHERAPEUTICS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features

On July 13, 2017, the FASB has issued a two-part ASU No. 2017-11, (i). Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features and (ii) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception . It is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will be evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

4. Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Warrants Granted in 2017

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company issued approximately 94,703,000 warrants (the “Warrants”) to multiple investors (the “Holders”). Since the Company’s adoption of a sequencing policy (see Note 3), the warrants were classified as liabilities and measured at fair value on the grant date, with changes in fair value recognized as other income on the statements of operations and disclosed in the financial statements as long as the contracts remain classified as liabilities.

A summary of weighted average (in aggregate) significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) used in measuring warrants granted during the six months ended June 30, 2017 is as follows:

Embedded Conversion Features

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded approximately $4.3 million of derivative liabilities, which were related to the embedded conversion features of certain convertible notes as of the issuance date.

A summary of weighted average (in aggregate) significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) used in measuring warrants granted during the six months ended June 30, 2017 is as follows:

The following table classifies the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands):

There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2017.

In accordance with ASC 820, the development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

The following table presents changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017. Both observable and unobservable inputs were used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level 3 category. Unrealized gains and losses associated with liabilities within the Level 3 category include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in unobservable long- dated volatilities) inputs (in thousands).

A summary of the weighted average (in aggregate) significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) used in measuring the Company’s warrant liabilities and embedded conversion feature that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is as follows:

The Options were granted pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc. 2007 Stock Plan (the “Equity Plan”). The Equity Plan provides for awards of various types of equity securities (including common stock, restricted stock units, options and/or other derivative securities) to employees and directors of the Company.

Dr. Bosch received Options exercisable for 7,940,182 Shares and Dr. Boynton received Options exercisable for 3,402,935 Shares. The Options are exercisable at a price of $0.25 per share, and have a 5-year exercise period. The Options granted to Dr. Bosch and Dr. Boynton are subject to vesting requirements. 50% of the Options vested on the grant date, and 50% will vest over a 24-month period in equal monthly installments, provided that the recipient continues to be employed by the Company. The unvested portions of the Options are subject to accelerated vesting upon (i) a change of effective control of the Company, (ii) the filing of the first Biologics License Application or other application for product approval in any jurisdiction, (iii) completion of any randomized clinical trial that meets its endpoint(s) (Phase II or Phase III), (iv) decision by the Board, in its discretion or (v) the death of the recipient.

The following table summarizes stock option activities for the Company’s option plans for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (amount in thousands, except per share number):

NORTHWEST BIOTHERAPEUTICS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $373,000, which was included as part of research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The weighted average grant date fair value was approximately $0.7 million and the unrecognized compensation cost was approximately $0.3 million as of June 30, 2017, and will be recognized over the next 2.2 years. The Company records the forfeitures, if any, when such forfeitures occur .

The risk-free rate is based on the rate of U.S Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the option grants. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock using the daily closing price of the Company’s common stock. The expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding.

7. Outstanding Debt

8. Net Loss per Share Applicable to Common Stockholders

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

The following securities were not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation because their effect was anti-dilutive as of the periods presented (in thousands): 

9. Related Party Transactions

Cognate BioServices, Inc.

Cognate Expenses and Accounts Payable

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company owed Cognate $21.4 million (after waiver of $3.75 million by Cognate as described below) and $23.4 million, respectively, for unpaid invoices for manufacturing and related services.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, Cognate waived its right to receive payment of $3.75 million of the payables owed to Cognate by the Company as of December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. Following this waiver, the Company owed Cognate $21.4 million for unpaid invoices as of June 30, 2017. 

Overall, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred research and development costs related to Cognate BioServices of $2.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively, relating to the DCVax-L and DCVax-Direct programs, product and process development work and preparations for upcoming Phase II trials. 

Overall, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred research and development costs related to Cognate BioServices of $5.2 million and $16.6 million, respectively, relating to the DCVax-L and DCVax-Direct programs, product and process development work and preparations for upcoming Phase II trials.  The substantial reduction in costs related to Cognate BioServices relates in part to reduction in clinical trial related activity and in part to an arrangement being tested under which the Company would no longer have capacity dedicated to its programs and instead would have to arrange for advance scheduling in regard to each patient individually.

Cognate Organization

Pursuant to an institutional financing of Cognate in October 2016, Cognate’s operations outside the US were separated from its operations in the US.

Share-settled Debt

On June 14, 2017, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to the holder of the Company’s share-settled debt (the “Holder”) as advance payment for future debt conversion. The fair value of the remaining share-settled debt will be reduced when the Company is notified by the Holder of the value at which the shares have been sold.

* Including approximately 1.0 million ratchet warrants due to the exercise price reset during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The Company’s adoption of a sequencing policy in the fourth quarter of 2016 requires that all financial instruments issued subsequent to such adoption be treated as a derivative liability. As such, warrants issued in the current period report have been classified as liabilities.

11.   Variable Interest Entities

Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) are entities in which equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest.  VIEs are consolidated by the primary beneficiary.  The primary beneficiary is the party who has both the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. 

After the assumption of $5.7 million in debt originally incurred by Cognate in October 2016 the Company had an implicit variable interest in Cognate to potentially fund Cognate’s losses (if Cognate incurs losses).  The Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of Cognate upon its initial involvement and the Company reassess whether it is the primary beneficiary of Cognate on an ongoing basis.  The determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of Cognate is based upon the facts and circumstances and requires significant judgment.  The Company’s considerations in determining Cognate’s most significant activities and whether the Company has power to direct those activities include, but are not limited to, Cognate’s purpose and design and the risks passed through to investors, the equity ownership and voting interests of Cognate, management, service and/or other agreements of Cognate, involvement in Cognate’s initial design and the existence of explicit or implicit financial guarantees.  As of June 30, 2017, the Company does not have the power over the most significant activities (control of operating decisions) and therefore does not meet the "power" criteria of the primary beneficiary.

The maximum exposure to loss is limited to the notional amounts of the implicit variable interest in Cognate.  The Company has no current plans to provide any support additional to that which is noted above.  Therefore, the maximum exposure to loss from its implicit interest is limited to $4.5 million as of June 30, 2017; which is the shutdown fee the Company must pay to terminate their relationship with Cognate.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingent Payment to Cognate BioServices

Under the January 17, 2014 DCVax®-L Manufacturing Services Agreement and the DCVax-Direct Agreement, a new set of provisions apply going forward to any shut down or suspension.  Under these provisions, the Company will be contingently obligated to pay certain fees to Cognate BioServices (in addition to any other remedies) if the Company shuts down or suspends its DCVax-L program or DCVax-Direct program.  For a shutdown or suspension of the DCVax-L program, the fees will be as fol l ows:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

For a shutdown or suspension of the DCVax-Direct program, the fees will be as follows:

As of June 30, 2017, none of the above fees were triggered.

While our DCVax programs are ongoing, the Company is required to pay certain fees for dedicated production suites or capacity reserved exclusively for DCVax production, and pay for a certain minimum number of patients, whether or not we fully utilize the dedicated capacity and number of patients. The Company and Cognate are testing an arrangement under which the Company would no longer have capacity dedicated to its programs and instead would have to arrange for advance scheduling in regard to each patient individually.

Derivative and Class Action Litigation

On June 19, 2015, two purported shareholders filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery, captioned Tharp, et al. v. Cognate, et al. , C.A. 11179-VCG (Del. Ch. filed June 19, 2015), purportedly suing on behalf of a class of similarly situated shareholders and derivatively on behalf of the Company. The lawsuit names Cognate BioServices, Inc., Toucan Partners, Toucan Capital Fund III, our CEO Linda Powers and the individuals who then served on the Company’s Board of Directors as defendants, and names the Company as a “nominal defendant” with respect to the derivative claims. The complaint generally challenges certain transactions between the Company and Cognate and the Toucan entities, in which Cognate and the Toucan entities provided services and financing to the Company, or agreed to the conversion of debts owed to them by the Company into equity. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary relief for the Company and the plaintiffs, and various forms of equitable relief, including disgorgement of allegedly improper benefits, rescission of the challenged transactions, and an order forbidding similar transactions in the future. After considerable litigation and negotiations, the parties reached an agreement to settle the case, along with the Yonemura case, discussed below. On May 19, 2017, the parties submitted a Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise and Settlement to the court, which is pending court approval. A settlement hearing is currently scheduled for October 17, 2017, at which the court is expected to consider, among other things, whether to approve the proposed settlement.

On November 19, 2015, a third purported shareholder filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, captioned Yonemura v. Powers, et al. , No. 15-03526 (D. Md. filed Nov. 19, 2015), claiming to sue derivatively on behalf of the Company. The complaint names the individuals who then served on the Company’s Board of Directors, Toucan Capital Fund III, L.P., Toucan General II, LLC, Toucan Partners, LLC, and Cognate as defendants, and names the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint generally challenges the same transactions disputed in the Delaware case, claiming that the Company purportedly overcompensated Cognate and Toucan for certain services and loans in payments of stock, and that the Company’s CEO, Ms. Powers, benefited from these transactions with Cognate and Toucan, which she allegedly owns or controls. The complaint asserts that the alleged overpayments unjustly enriched Ms. Powers, Toucan, and Cognate; that the Company’s directors breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty and good faith to the Company by authorizing the payments to Cognate; and that Ms. Powers, Cognate, and Toucan aided and abetted the directors’ breaches of fiduciary duties. The plaintiff seeks an award of unspecified damages to the Company and seeks equitable remedies, including disgorgement by Ms. Powers, Toucan, and Cognate of the allegedly improper benefits received as a result of the disputed transactions. The plaintiff also seeks costs and disbursements associated with bringing suit, including attorneys' fees and expert fees. As discussed above, the parties have agreed to settle the Yonemura case along with the Tharp case; the Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise and Settlement thus addresses the claims in both lawsuits. The proceedings in the Yonemura case are currently stayed pending review of the proposed settlement in the Tharp case by the Delaware Court of Chancery. If the settlement in the Tharp case is approved and becomes effective, then the plaintiff in Yonemura has agreed to dismiss that case.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

On November 28, 2016, a purported shareholder filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland, captioned Wells v. Powers, et al. , Case No. 427353-V (Md. Cir. Ct., Mont. Cnty. filed Nov. 28, 2016), claiming to sue derivatively on behalf of the Company. The complaint names six current and former members of the Company’s Board of Directors, Toucan Partners, LLC, Toucan Capital Fund III, L.P., Toucan Partners, LP (a non-existent entity), Toucan General II, LLC, and Cognate as defendants, and names the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint largely challenges the same transactions disputed in the two cases discussed above, claiming that the Company overcompensated Cognate and Toucan for certain services and loans. It asserts that, by authorizing those transactions, the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company, abused their ability to control and influence the Company, and engaged in gross mismanagement of the Company’s business and assets. In addition, the complaint claims that the individual defendants are liable to the Company for misleading its investors and financiers. The complaint claims that the individual defendants were unjustly enriched by receiving compensation while the Company’s stock price was allegedly artificially inflated; that Ms. Powers, Toucan, and Cognate are “controlling” stockholders of the Company who breached their fiduciary duties to minority stockholders; that Ms. Powers, Toucan, and Cognate, benefited from these transactions due to their alleged “control”; that the alleged overpayments unjustly enriched Ms. Powers, Toucan, and Cognate; and that Toucan and Cognate aided and abetted the individual defendants in breaching their fiduciary duties. The complaint seeks the award of unspecified damages to the Company; an order from the court directing the Company to reform its corporate governance and internal procedures; and equitable remedies, including restitution and disgorgement from defendants. The plaintiff also seeks the costs and disbursements associated with bringing suit, including attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses. The parties are currently engaged in settlement negotiations, and the plaintiff has filed an unopposed motion to stay the deadlines in the case pending the court’s review of an anticipated motion for preliminary settlement approval.

Class Action Securities Litigation

On August 26, 2015, a purported shareholder of the Company filed a putative class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, captioned Lerner v. Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc., et al. , No. 15-02532 (D. Md. filed Aug. 26, 2015). The lawsuit named the Company and Ms. Powers as defendants. On December 14, 2015, the court appointed two lead plaintiffs. The Lead Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on February 12, 2016, purportedly on behalf of all of those who purchased common stock in the Company between January 13, 2014 and August 21, 2015. The amended complaint generally claimed that the defendants violated Section 10(b) and Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making misleading statements and/or omissions on a variety of subjects, including the status and results of the Company’s DCVax trials. The amended complaint sought unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, and costs. The Company and Ms. Powers filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On March 21, 2017, the court entered an order dismissing the case, and on April 12, 2017, the Lead Plaintiffs submitted a letter advising the court that they do not intend to file an amended complaint.

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

As previously reported,  the Company has received a number formal information requests (subpoenas) from the SEC regarding several broad topics that have been previously disclosed, including the Company’s membership on Nasdaq and delisting, related party matters, the Company’s programs, internal controls and the Company’s Special Litigation Committee. Testimony of certain officers and third parties has been taken as well. The Company is cooperating with the SEC investigation and is hopeful that it is reaching its final stages. Unfortunately, the investigation has been costly for the Company, both in terms of professional fees and in distraction of management from operation of the Company and its programs.

Special Litigation Committee

As previously reported, the Company appointed a Special Litigation Committee, and Committee has undertaken an inquiry into the allegations of various lawsuits filed against the Company, and an anonymous internet report raising a number of criticisms of the Company and its Board and management, including with respect to the reasonableness of the transactions with Cognate. The Committee has retained experts to analyze some of these issues.

Chardan Capital Markets v. Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc.

On June 22, 2017, Chardan Capital Markets, LLC filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Chardan Capital Markets v. Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc., 1:17-cv-04727-PKC.  Chardan alleges that it provided capital placement agent services to the Company in December 2016 under a contract and that it has not been fully compensated for those services.  Chardan further alleges that it provided additional services to the Company in March 2017 in anticipation of entering into contract and that it received no compensation.  The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract and unjust enrichment, and purports to seek “at least” $1 million, interest, and attorneys’ fees and costs.  On August 14, 2017, Chardan filed a notice of motion for default judgment in the amount of $446,000, plus prejudgment interest.  The Company intends to vigorously defend the case.
