On January 9, 2025, the board of directors (the "Board") of AlloVir, Inc. ("AlloVir") determined to effect a one-for-twenty-three (1-for-23) reverse stock split of AlloVir's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock").

The reverse stock split ratio approved by the Board is within the previously disclosed range of ratios for a reverse stock split authorized by the stockholders of AlloVir at the Special Meeting of Stockholders of AlloVir held on January 9, 2025.

The reverse stock split will take effect at 4:05 p.m. Eastern Time on January 15, 2025, and AlloVir's Common Stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Capital Market as of the opening of trading on January 16, 2025.
