In connection with the sale of its common stock, NantCell has agreed to pay GlobeImmune $100,000 in cash and issue to GlobeImmune 200,000 shares, an estimated $2.0 million in value, of NantCell’s common stock. “We are pleased to enter into this strategic agreement with NantCell,” said Timothy C. Rodell, M.D., Chairman of GlobeImmune. “We believe that, with NantCell’s resources, this combination could leverage GlobeImmune’s Tarmogen technology platform to accelerate development of our programs in oncology and infectious disease,” continued Dr. Rodell. “GlobeImmune has continued to impact the oncology industry by putting innovative drug candidates forward to treat cancer and infectious diseases,” said Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, founder of NantCell. “In our mission to win the war against cancer, our team welcomes opportunities to engage with companies who are revolutionizing cancer care and treatments. We are looking forward to leveraging the expertise of GlobeImmune.” About NantCell NantCell, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NantWorks, LLC, is an immuno-oncology company focused on the discovery of innovative antibody, T cell and NK cell based treatments by developing molecularly targeted therapeutics, based on the proteomic profile of the patient’s tumor, independent of the cancer’s anatomical type. Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, the creator of Abraxane® and the founder of the nab® technology platform established NantCell to develop a pipeline of human antibodies and inhibitors of proteins which drive tumor growth and pursue Chimeric Receptor Antigen platforms in both T and NK cells. NantCell’s mission is to make obsolete the standard method of clinical trial design of “trial and error” and replace it with a level of quantitative predictability based on both the genomic and proteomic profile performed a priori. The Company will tap into comprehensive “omic” analytic tools and “big data” generated from supercomputing to develop molecularly designed drugs in this era of genomics and proteomics and identify patients and their tumor signature at the most granular cellular, DNA and protein levels. Patients entering clinical trials would be identified after a comprehensive “omic” analysis from tissue to cell to DNA to RNA to protein to peptide to drug, and tested based on this molecular profile to maximize clinical outcome and minimize side effects. Through these integrated diagnostic methods, the Company is pursuing the vision of treating the biology of cancer rather than the anatomy, and drive the immune system inherited by all to defeat cancer.

About GlobeImmune GlobeImmune is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing products for the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases based on its proprietary Tarmogen® platform. Tarmogens activate the immune system by stimulating cellular immunity, known as T cell immunity, in contrast to traditional vaccines that predominately stimulate antibody production. To date, Tarmogen product candidates have been generally well tolerated in clinical trials for multiple disease indications and are efficient to manufacture. In 2009, the Company entered into a worldwide strategic collaboration and option agreement with Celgene Corporation focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of product candidates intended to treat cancer. Under this agreement, Celgene exercised their option to take an exclusive worldwide license to the GI-6300 and GI-6200 Tarmogen product series targeting brachyury and the carcinoembryonic antigen, respectively.
