Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

-------------------------------------------

Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

On May 31, 2021, Dr. Amit Kumar owned a significant number of voting restricted stock awards that did not vest and were therefore forfeited resulting in a decrease in his beneficial ownership percentage. As of the date hereof, Dr. Kumar beneficially owns 2,795,889 shares of the Issuer, consisting of 277,000 shares of common stock held directly and 2,518,889 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options held directly and exercisable within 60 days. Such shares represent a total of 8.6% of the Issuer’s outstanding shares of common stock.

 

On June 1, 2021, Dr. Kumar was granted 2,000,000 options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.02 pursuant to the Anixa Biosciences, Inc. 2018 Share Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The options expire on June 1, 2031 and vest according to the following schedule:

 

	(i)	500,000 shares vest if during any 5 trading day period, the average closing price of the issuer’s common stock is at least $5.00,
	(ii)	500,000 shares vest if during any 5 trading day period, the average closing price of the issuer’s common stock is at least $6.00,
	(iii)	500,000 shares vest if during any 5 trading day period, the average closing price of the issuer’s common stock is at least $7.00, and
	(iv)	500,000 shares vest if during any 5 trading day period, the average closing price of the issuer’s common stock is at least $8.00.

 

Additionally, on June 1, 2021, Dr. Kumar was granted 500,000 options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.02 pursuant to the Plan. The options expire on June 1, 2031 and vest and become exercisable in thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments beginning June 30, 2021. Those shares vesting within 60 days are included in the 2,518,889 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options beneficially owned by Dr. Kumar as of the date hereof.

 

Dr. Kumar has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of, and to dispose or direct the disposition of, the entirety of the number of shares indicated immediately above. There are no other persons known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, such securities.
