Based on 26,674,997 shares of common stock, par value $0.0002 per share (the Common Shares), of Heat Biologics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), outstanding as of March 7, 2017. When Mr. Wolf filed his initial Schedule 13D on July 29, 2013, the Company had only 6,086,942 Common Shares outstanding. Mr. Wolf has never sold any Common Shares; however, the increase in the Companys outstanding Common Shares since July 2013 accounts for the decrease in the percentage of Common Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Wolf. As of the filing date of this Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 2), Mr. Wolf held 54,881 Common Shares directly (4,881 shares plus 50,000 restricted shares that have vested and been issued to Mr. Wolf), Orion Holdings V, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Orion), held 695,653 Common Shares and Seed-One Holdings VI, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Seed-One), held 536,862 Common Shares. Mr. Wolf serves as the managing member of both Orion and Seed-One. Mr. Wolf is deemed to beneficially own the shares held by such entities as in his role as the managing member he has the control over the voting and disposition of any shares held by these
CUSIP No. 42237K 102 13D Page 3 of 9 Pages
entities. Does not include 86,957 Common Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Wolfs childrens trust, of which Mr. Wolf is not the trustee. Mr. Wolf disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of any pecuniary interest (as defined in Rule 16a1(a)(2) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Act)) that he may have in such entities. In addition, if the Company is traded on a recognized national exchange or NASDAQ while Mr. Wolf is employed by the Company and the market capitalization of the Company is in excess of $250 million for at least five consecutive trading days, then Mr. Wolf will be entitled to receive an additional stock option equal to 2% of the then outstanding Common Shares, with an exercise price equal to the then current market price as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. In addition, as of the date of this Amendment No. 2, Mr. Wolf has been issued: (i) options to purchase an aggregate of 417,513 Common Shares, of which 165,887 shares are vested and currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof and are included in the beneficial ownership of Mr. Wolf; and (ii) 200,000 restricted stock units of which 50,000 shares have vested and have been issued to Mr. Wolf. Mr. Wolf possesses the sole power to vote and the sole power to direct the disposition of all securities of the Company beneficially owned by him, Orion and Seed-One. As a result of the foregoing, as of the filing date of this Amendment No. 2, Mr. Wolf is deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 1,453,283 Common Shares, or 5.41% of the outstanding Common Shares.
