F1 | On May 5, 2023, Garo Armen, the CEO and Chairman of Agenus, disclosed a transaction involving 100,000 MiNK Therapeutics shares. He agreed to sell these shares to Agenus at his original purchase price, which was lower than the market price at the time of the proposed sale. This action was taken to prevent any perception of Dr. Armen benefitting from low-cost purchases while Agenus was buying at higher prices in separate transactions. However, due to the shares being in Dr. Armen's IRA account, their transfer was prohibited, leading the broker to reverse the sale and decline Agenus' payment. Consequently, the MiNK Therapeutics shares were returned to Dr. Armen, and the sale price was given back to Agenus. This amendment accounts for the changes in Dr. Armen's share ownership following the reversal of this transaction. |
