NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE TRANSACTIONS, OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURES IN THE INFORMATION STATEMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The Information Statement is dated September 28, 2023 and is first being mailed to our stockholders on or about September 28, 2023. The Information Statement can also be accessed on our proxy hosting website at https://materials.proxyvote.com/45256X.

INFORMATION STATEMENT

REGARDING CORPORATE ACTION TAKEN BY WRITTEN CONSENT IN LIEU OF SPECIAL MEETING.

NO VOTE OR OTHER CONSENT OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS IS SOLICITED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.

This information statement (this “Information Statement”) is being furnished by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ImmunityBio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ImmunityBio,” “we,” “us” or “our”), on or about September 28, 2023, to the holders of record at the close of business on September 13, 2023 (the “Record Date”) of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (our “Common Stock”). The purpose of this Information Statement is to inform ImmunityBio’s stockholders of an action by written consent of holders of a majority of the Common Stock (the “Stockholder Written Consent”). This Information Statement can also be accessed on our proxy hosting website at https://materials.proxyvote.com/45256X.

The actions contemplated by the Stockholder Written Consent are being taken without notice, meetings or votes in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”) and its Bylaws. This Information Statement is being mailed to the stockholders of the Company as of the Record Date, September 13, 2023.

On September 8, 2023, the Board approved, and recommended to stockholders for approval, an amendment to the Restated Certificate that will increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to 1,350,000,000 shares from 900,000,000 shares (the “Certificate of Amendment”). The full text of the Certificate of Amendment is attached to this Information Statement as Appendix A.

On September 15, 2023, holders of 532,536,501 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 80%, of our Common Stock voting power (and thus a majority of voting power), executed and delivered to the Company the Stockholder Written Consent to approve the Certificate of Amendment. The Stockholder Written Consent was sufficient to approve the Certificate of Amendment under the DGCL and our Restated Certificate.

We are not aware of any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holders or otherwise, that is in opposition to matters of action being taken. In addition, pursuant to the DGCL, this action to be taken by majority written consent in lieu of a special stockholder meeting does not create appraisal or dissenters’ rights.

The Board has determined to pursue stockholder action by majority written consent of those shares entitled to vote as of the Record Date, to reduce the costs and management time required to hold a special meeting of stockholders, and to implement the above action in a timely manner.

Under Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), actions taken by written consent without a meeting of stockholders cannot become effective until twenty (20) calendar days after the mailing date of this Information Statement, or as soon thereafter as is practicable. We are not seeking written consent from any stockholders other than as set forth above, and our other stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote with respect to the actions taken. All necessary corporate approvals have been obtained, and this Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of advising stockholders of the actions taken by written consent and giving stockholders advance notice of the actions taken.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Information Statement and other reports that we file with the SEC may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of these provisions, including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items, any statement of the plans and objectives of management for future operations, the need and ability to obtain additional financing to fund our operations and complete the development and commercialization of our various product candidates and the timing thereof, and any statement of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. These statements may contain words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “projects,” and words of similar meaning. These statements relate to our future business and financial performance.

Actual outcomes may differ materially from these statements. The risks listed in this Information Statement, as well as any cautionary language in this Information Statement, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from any expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. There may be other risks that we have not described that may adversely affect our business and financial condition. Except as required by law, we disclaim any obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements contained in this Information Statement. We caution you not to rely upon any forward-looking statement as representing our views as of any date after the date of this Information Statement. You should carefully review the information and risk factors set forth in other reports and documents that we file from time to time with the SEC.

OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES AND CONSENTING STOCKHOLDERS

As of the date of the Stockholder Written Consent, ImmunityBio had 667,589,845 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (excluding 163,800 shares held by a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company). Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to stockholders.

On September 15, 2023, holders of 532,536,501 shares of Common Stock executed and delivered to the Board the Stockholder Written Consent, representing approximately 80%, of our Common Stock voting power (and thus a majority of voting power), approving the amendment to the Restated Certificate to increase the amount of authorized Common Stock. Because the action was approved by stockholders owning a majority of our outstanding voting power, no proxies are being solicited with this Information Statement. No consideration was paid for the Stockholder Written Consent.

Section 228 of the DGCL provides in substance that unless a company’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise, stockholders may take any action without a meeting of stockholders, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by stockholders of the outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize and take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present voted.

NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS

Under Delaware corporate law, stockholders have no appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the Certificate of Amendment.

INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PARTIES IN THE MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

None of the directors or executive officers of the Company have any substantial interest resulting from the Certificate of Amendment that is not shared by all other stockholders, pro rata, and in accordance with their respective interests.

COST OF THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT

The entire cost of furnishing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company. We will request brokerage houses, nominees, custodians, fiduciaries and other like parties to forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of our Common Stock held of record, as of the Record Date, by them.

HOUSEHOLDING OF STOCKHOLDER MATERIALS

Beneficial owners of common stock who share a single address will receive only one copy of this Information Statement. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce printing and mailing costs. If any beneficial stockholder(s) sharing a single address wish to discontinue householding and receive a separate copy of this Information Statement, we will have a separate copy promptly delivered to them upon their written or oral request. To make the request, they may contact Broadridge Investor Communications (“Broadridge”), either by calling 866-540-7095, or by writing to Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, and including their name, the name of their broker, or other nominee, and their account number(s). Beneficial owners may also contact Broadridge if they received multiple copies of the Information Statement and prefer to receive a single copy in the future.

AMENDMENT TO OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

General

Our Restated Certificate currently authorizes 900,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

On September 15, 2023, the consenting stockholders approved the filing of an amendment to our Restated Certificate to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock to 1,350,000,000 shares from 900,000,000 shares. Such amendment was previously approved by the Board.

Reasons for the Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock

As of September 13, 2023, there were 667,589,845 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. In order to provide future funding for the Company’s operations, it will be necessary to raise additional capital. One of the most effective ways for us to raise capital is to issue additional shares of Common Stock, or other instruments that are convertible into Common Stock. Most lenders that fund convertible instruments require that the borrower direct its stock transfer agent to establish a reserve of authorized shares to be available for shares that the Company has committed, or may have to, issue, including derivative securities and certain existing contingent obligations requiring the issuance of shares of Common Stock. In the event that there are insufficient authorized shares to honor the issuance of any shares to which the Company has already committed, there may be contractual penalties. The increase in the Company’s authorized shares to 1,350,000,000 shares from 900,000,000 shares is intended to provide adequate authorized shares to cover all of the Company’s current, committed issuances of Common Stock and the Company’s expected funding needs for at least the next 12 months.

Principal Effects of the Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock

While the authorization of additional shares of Common Stock is intended to increase our financial flexibility, the sale and issuance of such additional shares will result in the dilution of our existing stockholders. Upon the occurrence of the sale and issuance of all additional 450,000,000 shares authorized by the Certificate of Amendment, our existing stockholders would be diluted substantially. If we choose to raise capital by incurring debt through an instrument convertible into Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion would likely be contingent on a number of factors currently unknown to us, such as the market price of our Common Stock and certain interest rates. Any dilution of our Common Stock resulting from this Certificate of Amendment, whether immediate or over time, could cause the price per share of our Common Stock to decline significantly, which could result in financial harm to our existing stockholders.

Effective Date

Under Rule 14c-2 of the Exchange Act, the Certificate of Amendment shall be effective no earlier than twenty (20) calendar days after this Information Statement is first mailed to stockholders of the Company. We anticipate the effective date to be on or about October 18, 2023.
