The ATM agreement has concluded because the Company has reached $50 million of gross proceeds as specified in the ATM agreement. As of July 8, 2015, the Company had approximately 31,400,000 shares of common stock outstanding and approximately 17,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding, which are convertible into approximately 1,700,000 shares of common stock. These amounts are preliminary, unaudited, subject to change upon completion of our quarterly review, and may differ from what will be reflected in our consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.

<p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">The third DSMB review included safety data for all enrolled subjects collected through the data cut-off in June. As of the cut-off, all continuing subjects who had received the second immunization (which was the last active dose for HEPLISAV-B subjects) had reached at least 8 months of the requisite one year follow-up after the second immunization. The DSMB reviewed unblinded tables and listings presenting key safety data. Based on this review, the DSMB recommended continuing HBV&#8209;23 with no change to the study.</p>
