EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Adicet Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 11, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”).
This Amendment is being filed solely to replace the Consent of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (the “PWC Consent”) of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PWC”) included in the Form 10-K as Exhibit 23.2 with the correct PWC Consent. Due to an administrative oversight, an incorrect version of the PWC Consent was inadvertently included in the Form 10-K. The Company possessed a correct, manually signed copy of the PWC Consent from PWC when the Form 10-K was filed with the SEC.
This Amendment consists solely of the preceding cover page, this explanatory note, the information required by Item 15 of Form 10-K, a signature page, a replacement PWC Consent and new certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as required by Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Except as described in this Explanatory Note, this Amendment does not modify, amend, or update any of the financial information or any other information set forth in the Form 10-K, and this Amendment does not reflect events that occurred subsequent to March 31, 2021.
Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
