Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (this “Form 8-K/A”) is filed to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K of Vaccinogen, Inc. (the “Company”), dated October 6, 2015 and herein incorporated by reference (the “Original 8-K”). This Form 8-K/A is being filed to update certain information included in the Original 8-K regarding the purported termination of a Master Services Agreement with RxTrials, Inc. d/b/a/ OnPoint CRO (“RxTrials”), as amended by the First Amendment to the Master Services Agreement, dated January 16, 2015 (the “MSA”), pursuant to which the Company retained RxTrials to provide site selection, clinical operations, project management, and trial enrollment services for the Company’s OncoVAX® Study for patients with Stage II colon cancer.

 

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Agreement

 

As previously disclosed in the Original 8-K, on September 14, 2015 and September 30, 2015, the Company received two letters regarding the purported suspension and termination of the MSA. Upon further investigation, the Company has determined that the MSA was not properly suspended and/or terminated. The purported suspension and termination notices were not sent by RxTrials, but by a separate corporate entity, OnPoint CRO, LLC, which does not have any rights under the MSA. Additionally, the purported notices did not provide valid reasons for terminating the MSA. Nevertheless, RxTrials has stopped all work under the MSA.
