On July 31, 2013, Cognate BioServices,
Inc., one of the largest stockholders of Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc., agreed to convert an aggregate of $11.6 million in notes
payable into shares of common stock of Northwest at a conversion price of $4.00 per share, which will result in the issuance of
an aggregate of 2.9 million shares of common stock. The issuance of the shares is expected to occur on or before August 8, 2013.
The issuance of the shares is being effected pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities

On a going forward basis, commencing with
