Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On September 15, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Humacyte, Inc. (the “Company”), appointed C. Bruce Green to the Board. General Green will serve as a Class I director and will be subject to election at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

General Green has served as Director and Chief Medical Officer of Deloitte Federal Consulting since October 2013. From September 2012 through September 2013, General Green served as Senior Partner at Martin, Blanck & Associates, a consulting firm focused on the federal health sector. General Green served as the 20th Surgeon General of the U.S. Air Force from August 2009 through July 2012, during which time he oversaw all U.S. Air Force Medical Service activities, including a staff of over 42,800 people assigned to 75 medical facilities worldwide. Prior to serving as Surgeon General, General Green served as Assistant Surgeon General for Health Care Operations from July 2005 to August 2006 and Deputy Surgeon General of the U.S. Air Force from August 2006 to August 2009. General Green was commissioned through the Health Professions Scholarship Program and entered active duty with the U.S. Air Force in 1978, after completing his M.D. at the Medical College of Wisconsin. General Green completed residency training in family practice at Eglin Regional Hospital, Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, and in aerospace medicine at Brooks Air Force Base, Texas. General Green received his B.S. from the University of Wisconsin–Parkside and his M.P.H. from the Harvard School of Public Health. General Green retired from the U.S. Air Force in July 2012 with the rank of Lieutenant General.

For his service on the Company’s Board, General Green will participate in the Company’s previously disclosed compensation program for non-employee directors, pursuant to which he will receive (i) a $50,000 annual cash retainer (prorated in 2022 for his partial year of service), (ii) as a newly appointed director, an option to purchase 13,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and, (iii) when considered a continuing director, an option to purchase 8,500 shares of the Company’s common stock annually.

There is no arrangement between General Green and any person pursuant to which he was selected as director. General Green has no direct or indirect material interest in any existing or currently proposed transaction that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
