On December 12, 2025, Northwest Biotherapeutics entered into a settlement agreement with lead plaintiff F. Glenn Schaeffer to resolve Delaware Chancery Court litigation over stock option awards granted to company management and directors in 2020. After roughly a year of negotiations and mediation, the deal provides that the company’s insurers will pay $2.25 million to the company, 17% of the disputed 2020 options will be cancelled, and all claims between the parties will be fully settled, while any court-approved attorneys’ fees, for which the plaintiff plans to seek up to $3.5 million, will be paid separately by insurers, with the overall settlement still subject to court approval at a hearing scheduled for March 16, 2026.
