EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Advaxis, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019 (the “Form 10-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 20, 2019. The sole purpose for filing this Amendment is to (i) include the consent of the independent registered public accounting firm as Exhibit 23.1, (ii) include the Sixth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Patent License Agreement between the Company and the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania as Exhibit 10.31, and (iii) revise the list of exhibits in Item 15(b) to include five previously-filed exhibit documents (Exhibits 3.10, 3.11, 10.32, 10.33, and 10.34) that were inadvertently omitted from the exhibit list in the Form 10-K.

 

This Amendment is an exhibits-only filing solely for the purpose of filing additional exhibits and updating the exhibit index of the Form 10-K.

 

This Amendment also updates, amends and supplements Part IV, Item 15 of the Form 10-K to include the filing of new Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

This Amendment does not affect any other parts of, or exhibits to, the Form 10-K, and those unaffected parts or exhibits are not included in this Amendment. Except as expressly stated in this Amendment, the Form 10-K continues to speak as of the date of the original filing of the Form 10-K, and the Company has not updated the disclosure contained in this Amendment to reflect events that have occurred since the filing of the Form 10-K. Accordingly, this Amendment must be read in conjunction with the Company’s other filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K, including amendments to those filings, if any.
