“Legal Proceedings Related to the Tender Offer.

 

On March 16 and 17, 2020, complaints were filed by purported stockholders of Forty Seven regarding the Merger. The first complaint, filed on an individual basis by the plaintiff, is captioned Stephen Bushanksy v. Forty Seven, Inc., et al., Case No. 3:20-cv-01853 (N.D. Cal. filed Mar. 16, 2020). The second complaint, filed as a putative class action, is captioned Joseph Post v. Forty Seven, Inc., et al., No. 1:20-cv-00377 (D. Del. filed Mar. 17, 2020) (collectively, the “Complaints”). The Complaints name as defendants Forty Seven and each member of the Forty Seven Board. The Post complaint additionally names as defendants Parent and Purchaser. The Complaints allege violations of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act against all defendants, and assert violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individual defendants. The Post complaint additionally alleges a violation of Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act against all defendants and a violation of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against Parent and Purchaser. The plaintiffs contend that the Schedule 14D-9 omitted or misrepresented material information regarding the Merger. The Complaints seek (i) injunctive relief preventing the consummation of the Transactions; (ii) rescissory damages or rescission in the event the Transactions are consummated; and (iii) an award of plaintiff’s expenses and attorneys’ fees. The Post complaint additionally seeks dissemination of a recommendation statement that discloses certain information requested by that plaintiff. Parent and Purchaser believe the claims asserted in the Complaints are without merit.

 

Additional lawsuits may be filed against Forty Seven, the Forty Seven Board, Parent and/or Purchaser in connection with the Transactions, the Schedule TO and the Schedule 14D-9.”
