Securities Class Action 

On July 2, 2024, a securities class action complaint was filed against the Company and certain of its directors and executive officers (collectively, the "Defendants") in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Nesterenko v. Bolt Biotherapeutics, Inc. et al., Case No. 3:24-cv-03985, purportedly on behalf of a class of individuals who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s common stock between February 5, 2021 and May 14, 2024. The complaint alleged that Defendants made false and/or misleading statements in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The complaint sought unspecified monetary damages and other relief. On October 3, 2024, the court appointed a lead plaintiff, appointed lead plaintiff's counsel, and ordered the parties to submit a proposed briefing schedule for the filing of an amended complaint and the Company’s response thereto, which the parties submitted on October 23, 2024. On January 17, 2025, the lead plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the case, bringing the legal proceedings to a close.
