The investigation concerns whether the Company violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Specifically, the investigation will focus on the Company’s July 14, 2016 announcement that a brain cancer patient in a clinical
trial for its experimental gene therapy, Ad-RTS-hIL-12, died and that there was a second patient death in a gene therapy study
unrelated to the Ad-RTS-hIL-12 one. The spokesperson stated that the Company did not yet inform the U.S. Food & Drug
Administration about the death. Upon release of this news, stock prices of ZIOPHARM fell. The Company was trying to raise $50
million in a stock offering that week but the deal was abandoned on the night of July 14, 2016 according to an email sent by
Jefferies & Co. bankers.
