This Amendment No. 9 to the statement on Schedule 13D (this “Statement”) with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Humacyte, Inc. (the “Issuer”), filed by Laura E. Niklason (“Dr. Niklason”) and Brady W. Dougan (“Mr. Dougan” and, together with Dr. Niklason, the “Reporting Persons”) on November 20, 2024 (such statement, as amended herein the “Schedule 13D”), amends the Schedule 13D as set forth below. As set forth below, as a result of the transactions described herein, on November 19, 2024, each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Issuer’s Common Stock. The filing of this Amendment No. 9 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 9, items in the Schedule 13D remain unchanged.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to be supplemented by the following:
On September 9, 2024 Ayabudge LLC (“Ayabudge”) sold 157,704 shares of Common Stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $5.42 per share for an aggregate sale price of approximately $855,000 (excluding commissions).
On September 10, 2024 Ayabudge sold 288,674 shares of Common Stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $5.23 per share for an aggregate sale price of approximately $1,511,000 (excluding commissions).
On November 18, 2024 Ayabudge sold 811,172 shares of Common Stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $4.44 per share for an aggregate sale price of approximately $3,604,000 (excluding commissions).
On November 19, 2024 Ayabudge sold 427,459 shares of Common Stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $4.34 per share for an aggregate sale price of approximately $1,854,000 (excluding commissions).
On November 19, 2024 Dr. Niklason purchased 1,797 shares of Common Stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $4.44 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $8,000 (excluding commissions). Dr. Niklason used personal funds for such acquisition.

Mr. Dougan used the proceeds of the sales by Ayabudge to pay down leverage while providing a mechanism for the purchasers to acquire shares at a time that the Issuer was not conducting a financing transaction. Dr. Niklason is treated as indirectly beneficially owning the shares of Common Stock sold. However, no shares of Common Stock directly owned by Dr. Niklason were sold in these transactions.
