In May 2024, a stockholder derivative lawsuit was filed on behalf of the Company against certain of its agents and the nominal defendant Ocugen in the Court (Case No. 2:24-cv-02234) that purported to state a claim for breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, and contribution for violations of Sections 10(b) and 21(d) of the Exchange Act, based on the facts and circumstances relating to the securities class action and seeking damages and certain governance reforms in connection with claims asserted in the securities class action. In June 2024, the Court approved the parties' joint stipulation for an order staying the derivative lawsuit pending resolution of a motion to dismiss in the related securities class action.
