Item 1.01 
Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
 
On March 22, 2011, the management of Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc. (“the Company”) concluded that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2009 will be restated to correct an error in the Company’s measurement of the value for common stock issued for services in 2009.  On our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual report on Form 10-K, we computed the value of the common stock issued for services using the per share value from recent financing transactions.  After reviewing comments from the Securities & Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), the literature cited by the Commission, and the financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company has determined that it should revise its financial statements to value the common stock issued for services in 2009 on the quoted market price, rather than being based on the price of our common stock in recent financing transactions.
 
The Board of Directors of the Company have discussed with its independent registered public accounting firm the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02.  The Company intends to file an amended annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 as soon as practicable.
