ITEM 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) announced today that, on December 30, 2005, it received a $250,000 loan from Toucan Partners, L.L.C. (“Toucan Partners”). The loan accrues interest at 10% per year and matures on December 30, 2006. The Company believes that the additional $250,000 received from Toucan Partners on December 30, 2005 should be sufficient to cover short-term payables through January 2006.
     To date, the Company has issued two promissory notes to Toucan Partners pursuant to which Toucan Partners has loaned the Company an aggregate of $650,000. In connection with the issuance of a promissory note on November 14, 2005 to Toucan Partners, the Company has issued and Toucan Partners has received a warrant that is currently exercisable for an aggregate of up to 4.0 million shares of the Company’s capital stock.
     From February 2, 2004 through the twelve months ended December 30, 2005, the Company has undergone a significant recapitalization pursuant to which Toucan Capital Fund II, L.P., or Toucan Capital, and its affiliate Toucan Partners, L.L.C., has loaned the Company $7.4 million. On January 26, 2005, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Toucan Capital pursuant to which they purchased 32.5 million shares of its newly designated series A preferred stock at a purchase price of $0.04 per share, for a net purchase price of $1.276 million, net of issue related costs of approximately $24,000. These funds have enabled the Company to continue to operate, although at a very minimal level of activity, while attempting to raise additional capital.
