        <amountBeneficiallyOwned>Items 5 through 9 and 11 of each of the cover pages to this Amendment No. 1 are incorporated herein by reference. Set forth below is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock") of Candel Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Issuer") directly held by each of Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. ("Life Sciences") and 667, L.P. ("667", and together with Life Sciences, the "Funds") which may be deemed to be indirectly beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, as well as Common Stock that may be acquired upon exercise of pre-funded warrants with no expiration date with an exercise price of $0.01 per share of Common Stock ("Pre-funded Warrants"), subject to the limitations on exercise described below.

The percentage of beneficial ownership for each of the Reporting Persons reported herein and the information set forth below is based on 47,235,460 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 6, 2025, as reported in the Issuer's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2025 plus 1,947,192 Common Shares issued in the net exercise by the Funds of 1,949,999 Pre-funded Warrants on March 28, 2025 and 17,919 Pre-funded Warrants exercisable into Common Stock, subject to beneficial ownership limitations on exercise described below. Such percentage figures are calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

The Pre-funded Warrants are only exercisable to the extent that after giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise the holders thereof, their affiliates and any persons who are members of a Section 13(d) group with the holders or one of their affiliates would beneficially own in the aggregate, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, no more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock (the "Maximum Percentage"). By written notice to the Issuer, the Funds may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage applicable to that Fund to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99%. Any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Issuer.

As a result of these restrictions, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants by the above holders may change depending upon changes in the outstanding Common Stock.

Pursuant to the management agreements, as amended, among the Adviser, the Funds and their respective general partners, the Funds' respective general partners relinquished to the Adviser all discretion and authority with respect to the investment and voting power of the securities held by the Funds, and thus the Adviser has complete and unlimited discretion and authority with respect to the Funds' investments and voting power over investments.

The Adviser GP is the sole general partner of the Adviser. The Adviser GP, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker as managing members of the Adviser GP, and the Adviser may be deemed to be beneficial owners of securities of the Issuer directly held by the Funds.</amountBeneficiallyOwned>
        <classPercent>The Funds beneficially own 2,455,108 shares of Common Stock or 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock consisting of 2,437,189 shares of Common Stock directly held by the Funds and 17,919 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-funded Warrants within 60 days of the date of this filing, subject to beneficial ownership limitations described herein. 667 beneficially owns 0.42% and Life Sciences beneficially owns 4.57% of the outstanding Common Stock.</classPercent>
