CUSIP No. 037230208

^* On January 30, 2019, pursuant to a Purchase Agreement for Shares of Series AA Preferred Stock dated January 7, 2019, Reporting Person purchased 1,250,000 shares of Issuer’s Series AA Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $12,500,000 as part of a larger private placement (the “Series AA Financing”). Each share of the Issuer’s Series AA Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a ratio of 45.45454 shares of Common Stock for one share of Series AA Preferred Stock (“Conversion Rate”) at the holder’s election. The Series AA Preferred Stock will automatically convert, at the Conversion Rate, into Common Stock (i) at any time upon the vote or consent of the holders of two thirds of the voting power of the then outstanding Series AA Preferred Stock or (ii) the amendment to Issuer’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued to at least 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

Upon the filing of Issuer’s amendment to Certificate of Incorporation on April 26, 2019, which amendment increased the authorized number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to 500,000,000, the 1,250,000 shares share of Series AA Preferred Stock held by Reporting Person automatically converted into 56,818,175 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at the Conversion Rate (the “Conversion”).

In addition, at the closing of the Series AA Financing, Issuer granted Reporting Person a call option whereby the earlier of, (i) December 31, 2020 and (ii) the date when Issuer asks Reporting Person for further financing, Reporting Person may elect to purchase up to $10,000,000 worth of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a purchase price equal to the greater of: (i) $0.29 per share or (ii) 75% of the volume weighted average closing price of the Issuer’s Common Stock during the thirty (30) consecutive trading days prior to the date of the notice. In July 2019, Issuer requested that Reporting Person provide such funding as part of a larger private placement. On July 23, 2019, Reporting Person agreed to exercise the full option to purchase 34,482,758 shares of Common Stock for $0.29 per share (the “Exercise of the Option”). Since then, Reporting Person has owned an aggregate of 91,300,933 shares of Common Stock in Issuer.

^[†] Percentage is calculated based on 293,320,891 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 7, 2020, as reported in Issuer’s quarterly report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 12, 2020.

Given the timing of the transactions giving rise to this filing and the actual date of filing this Schedule, we are also disclosing the percentage of ownership (i) at the time the Series AA Preferred Stock was purchased (the “Purchase”), (ii) at the time of the Conversion, and (iii) at the time of the Exercise of the Option. The Purchase and the subsequent Conversion as well as the Exercise of the Option would have triggered the requirements to file this Schedule and an amendment to this Schedule, respectively, since (i) the Purchase and the subsequent Conversion resulted in the Reporting Person beneficially owning more than 5% of the Common Stock of Issuer; (ii) the Exercise of the Option resulted in the Reporting Person’s acquisition of more than 1% of Common Stock of Issuer and a material increase of its ownership percentage.

The percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by Reporting Person following the Purchase and the subsequent Conversion was 27% of the Common Stock based on 61,866,319 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 27, 2019, as reported in the Issuer’s Information Statement on Schedule 14A, which was filed with the SEC on April 5, 2019.

The percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by Reporting Person following the Exercise of the Option was increased to 31.1% of the Common Stock based on 293,320,891 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 13, 2019, as reported in the Issuer’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, which was filed with the SEC on August 15, 2019.

On January 30, 2019, pursuant to a Purchase Agreement for Shares of Series AA Preferred Stock dated January 7, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference thereto, Reporting Person purchased 1,250,000 shares of Issuer’s Series AA Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $12,500,000 as part of a larger private placement (the “Series AA Financing”). Based on the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock as set forth in the Certificate of Designation filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on January 29, 2019, which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference thereto, each share of the Issuer’s Series AA Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a ratio of 45.45454 shares of Common Stock for one share of Series AA Preferred Stock (“Conversion Rate”) at the holder’s election. The Series AA Preferred Stock will automatically convert, at the Conversion Rate, into Common Stock (i) at any time upon the vote or consent of the holders of two thirds of the voting power of the then outstanding Series AA Preferred Stock or (ii) the amendment to Issuer’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued to at least 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

Upon the filing of Issuer’s amendment to Certificate of Incorporation on April 26, 2019, which amendment increased the authorized number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to 500,000,000, the 1,250,000 shares share of Series AA Preferred Stock owned by Reporting Person automatically converted into 56,818,175 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at the Conversion Rate.

In addition, at the closing of the Series AA Financing and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, Issuer granted Reporting Person a call option whereby the earlier of, (i) December 31, 2020 and (ii) the date when Issuer asks Reporting Person for further financing, Reporting Person may elect to purchase up to $10,000,000 worth of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock at a purchase price equal to the greater of: (i) $0.29 per share or (ii) 75% of the volume weighted average closing price of the Issuer’s Common Stock during the thirty (30) consecutive trading days prior to the date of the notice. In July 2019, Issuer requested that Reporting Person provide such funding as part of a larger private placement. Pursuant to a Purchase Agreement for Shares of Common Stock dated July 23, 2019, which is attached as Exhibit 99.3 hereto and incorporated herein by reference thereto, Reporting Person exercised the full option to purchase 34,482,758 shares of Common Stock for $0.29 per share.

Reporting Person has acquired the Issuer’s securities for investment purposes and to affect and influence control of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and as conditions to the closing of the Series AA Financing, Reporting Person, together with Genexine, Inc., which also purchased 1,250,000 shares of Series AA Preferred Stock in the Series AA Financing, caused the then incumbent directors of Issuer including Hoyoung Huh, David Welch, Tae Hoon Kim and Samir Patel to resign and caused the election of Young-Jin Kim and Young Chul Sung, Ph.D as directors of the Issuer.
