Dear Fellow Stockholders:

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Replimune Group, Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “Replimune”), I invite you to attend our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), which will be held on Wednesday, September 6, 2023, at 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders conducted via live webcast. You will be able to participate in the Annual Meeting, vote online during the Annual Meeting and submit your questions during the Annual Meeting by visiting www.meetnow.global/M557R6D, but you will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. A Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, which contains instructions on how to access online the proxy statement accompanying this letter (the “Proxy Statement”) and our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, is first being sent to stockholders on or about July 26, 2023. We urge you to carefully read our proxy materials, which provide important information about the Annual Meeting and will serve as your guide to the business that will be conducted at the Annual Meeting.

The matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting are listed in the 2023 Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and are more fully described in the Proxy Statement.

All holders of record of our common stock at the close of business on July 17, 2023, the record date, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any continuation, postponement, or adjournment thereof. Whether or not you participate in the Annual Meeting, it is important that your shares be represented and voted during the meeting. We therefore are soliciting proxies so that each stockholder has an opportunity to vote on the matters that are scheduled to come before the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. If you have previously received our Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Internet Notice”), then instructions regarding how you can vote are contained therein. If you have received a proxy card, then instructions regarding how you can vote are contained on the proxy card. Submitting your vote via the Internet or by telephone or proxy card will not affect your right to vote electronically if you decide to virtually attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in street name (held for your account by a broker or other nominee), you will receive instructions from your broker or other nominee explaining how to vote your shares. Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting electronically, we urge you to vote your shares as promptly as possible to ensure your representation and the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

Thank you for your continuing interest in the Company.

Sincerely,

PROXY STATEMENT FOR 2023 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
To Be Held On Wednesday, September 6, 2023 at 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time

GENERAL INFORMATION

This proxy statement (“Proxy Statement”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Replimune Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Replimune,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”), of proxies in the accompanying form to be used at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held on September 6, 2023 at 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time, and any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof. We have adopted a virtual format for our Annual Meeting, which will be conducted via live webcast. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online and submit your questions during the meeting by visiting www.meetnow.global/M557R6D and entering your 15-digit control number included in your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Internet Notice”), on any proxy card you received or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

The Board has fixed the record date for determining those stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting as of the close of business on July 17, 2023 (the “Record Date”).

When are this Proxy Statement and the accompanying materials scheduled to be sent to stockholders?

This Proxy Statement and Replimune’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”) will be released to our stockholders as of the Record Date on or about the date hereof.

Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.

As permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), Replimune is making this Proxy Statement and its Annual Report available to its stockholders electronically via the Internet. On or about the date hereof, we will begin mailing a notice, which we refer to herein as the Internet Notice, to our stockholders as of the Record Date containing instructions on how to access this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report and the mechanisms by which such stockholders may vote. If you are a stockholder as of the Record Date, you may then access these proxy materials online or you may request that a printed copy of the materials be sent to you. If you choose to receive a paper or e-mail copy of these proxy materials, you must request such by telephone by calling 1-866-641-4276, online at www.envisionreports.com/REPL or by e-mail to investorvote@computershare.com with “Proxy Materials Replimune Group, Inc.” in the subject line, in each case, before August 25, 2023. There is no charge to you for requesting a copy of these proxy materials.

The Internet Notice instructs you on how to access and review all of the important information contained in the Proxy Statement and Annual Report. The Internet Notice also instructs you on how you may submit your proxy over the Internet.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

You are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on the Record Date, we had 58,996,326 shares of common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on each matter presented at the Annual Meeting. There is no cumulative voting.

Who can attend and participate in the Annual Meeting?

You may attend and participate in the Annual Meeting online only if you were a stockholder as of the Record Date, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. We have adopted a virtual format for our

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Annual Meeting. There will not be a physical meeting location and you will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. We have designed the format of this year’s virtual Annual Meeting to ensure that our stockholders who attend the Annual Meeting online will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online, vote your shares online during the Annual Meeting and submit questions online during the Annual Meeting by visiting www.meetnow.global/M557R6D. To attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 15-digit control number included in your Internet Notice, on any proxy card you received or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If you lose your 15-digit control number, you may join the Annual Meeting as a “Guest” but you will not be able to vote, ask questions or access the list of stockholders as of the Record Date.

If your shares are held in “street name,” as described below, you must register in advance to attend the Annual Meeting online using the instructions found under the caption “How do I vote?” below. You will need to obtain your own Internet access if you choose to attend the Annual Meeting online and/or vote over the Internet.

The Annual Meeting webcast will begin promptly at 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time. We encourage you to access the Annual Meeting at least fifteen minutes prior to the start time, leaving ample time for check-in procedures.

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and beneficial owner of shares held in “street name”?

Stockholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Internet Notice, or if requested, these proxy materials, will be sent directly to you by Replimune.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in “Street Name.” If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the Internet Notice, or if requested, these proxy materials, will be forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account.

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record and your shares are registered directly in your name, you may vote:

•

By Internet. You may vote by proxy via the Internet at www.envisionreports.com/REPL by following the instructions provided on the Internet Notice or any proxy card you received. In order submit a vote over the Internet, you must have your 15-digit control number included in your Internet Notice or on any proxy card you received.

•

By Telephone. If you live in the United States or Canada, you may vote by proxy by calling toll-free 1-800-652-VOTE (8683) and by following the instructions provided on the Internet Notice or any proxy card you received. In order to submit your vote over the telephone, you must have your 15-digit control number included in your Internet Notice or on any proxy card you received.

•

By Mail. Complete and mail any proxy card you may have received in the accompanying postage prepaid envelope and return the proxy card to Proxy Services, C/O Computershare Investor Services, P.O. Box 43101, Providence, RI 02040-5067. Your proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you have received printed copies of these proxy materials and sign and return the enclosed proxy but do not otherwise specify how you want your shares voted, they will be voted “FOR” the election of the Class II director nominees named herein to the Board and “FOR” the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, and will be voted according to the discretion of the proxy holder named in the proxy card upon any other business that may properly be brought before the meeting and at all adjournments and postponements thereof.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Electronically at the Annual Meeting. If you attend the meeting online via live webcast, you will need the 15-digit control number included in your Internet Notice, on any proxy card you received or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials to vote electronically during the meeting. If you lose your 15-digit control number, you may join the Annual Meeting as a “Guest” but you will not be able to vote, ask questions or access the list of stockholders as of the Record Date.

If your shares are held in street name (held for your account by a broker or other nominee), you may vote:

•

By Internet or By Telephone. You will receive instructions from your broker or other nominee if you are permitted to vote by Internet or telephone.

•

By Mail. You will receive instructions from your broker or other nominee explaining how to vote your shares.

•

Register to Attend the Annual Meeting. You may register to attend the meeting online via webcast as a stockholder in advance (allowing you to both vote and ask questions during the Annual Meeting). To register to attend the Annual Meeting online, you must submit proof of your proxy power (legal proxy) reflecting your holdings in the Company along with your name and email address to Computershare. Requests for registration must be labeled as “Legal Proxy” and be received no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 5, 2023. You will receive a confirmation of your registration by email after Computershare receives your registration materials. Requests for registration should be directed to Computershare in the following manner: (1) by email: Forward the email from your broker, or attach an image of your legal proxy, to legalproxy@computershare.com; or (2) by mail: Computershare, Replimune Group, Inc. Legal Proxy, P.O. Box 43001, Providence, RI 02940-3001.

•

Attend the Annual Meeting Using a Control Number. We expect that the vast majority of beneficial holders will be able to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting by logging into the Annual Meeting using the control number received with the voting instruction form provided by your broker or other nominee. However, some beneficial holders may need to request a legal proxy and register in advance of the Annual Meeting pursuant to the instructions above under “Register to Attend the Annual Meeting.” Please contact your broker or other nominee to confirm whether your control number will allow you to access the Annual Meeting or whether you will need to obtain a legal proxy and register in advance.

What are the Board’s recommendations on how to vote my shares?

The Board recommends a vote:

•

Proposal No. 1: “FOR” the election of each of Paolo Pucci and Veleka Peeples-Dyer as Class II members of the Board (the “Class II directors”).

•

Proposal No. 2: “FOR” ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Replimune’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.

Who pays the cost for soliciting proxies?

Replimune will bear the cost of solicitation of proxies. This includes the charges and expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding solicitation material to beneficial owners of our outstanding common stock. Replimune may solicit proxies by mail, personal interview, telephone or via the Internet through its officers, directors and other management employees, who will receive no additional compensation for their services. We may also request that brokers, nominees, custodians and other fiduciaries forward soliciting materials to the beneficial owners of shares held by the brokers, nominees, custodians and other fiduciaries. We will reimburse these persons for their reasonable expenses in connection with these activities.

Pursuant to rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, we have elected to deliver the Internet Notice to stockholders and provide Internet access to our proxy materials. Stockholders may obtain paper copies of the proxy materials free of charge by following the instructions provided in the Internet Notice.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Can I change or revoke my vote?

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by delivering written notice to our Investor Relations team at our principal executive offices, by returning a signed proxy with a later date, by transmitting a subsequent vote over the Internet or by telephone prior to the close of the Internet voting facility or the telephone voting facility, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting electronically. If your stock is held in street name, you must contact your broker or nominee for instructions as to how to change or revoke your vote.

How is a quorum reached?

The presence of holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. For purposes of determining whether a quorum exists, we count as present any shares that are voted over the Internet, by telephone or by completion and submission of a proxy or that are represented virtually at the Annual Meeting. Further, for purposes of establishing a quorum, we will count as present shares that a stockholder holds even if the stockholder votes to withhold or abstain or votes on only one of the proposals. In addition, we will count as present shares held in street name by brokers or other nominees that indicate on their proxies that they do not have authority to vote those shares on Proposal No. 1. If a quorum is not present, we expect to adjourn the Annual Meeting until we obtain a quorum.

What are broker non-votes?

“Broker non-votes” are shares represented at the Annual Meeting held by brokers, banks or other nominees (i.e., in “street name”) which do not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Generally, nominees may vote to ratify the selection of independent auditors (Proposal No. 2). In contrast, nominees may not vote to elect directors (Proposal No. 1), because that proposal is considered a “non-discretionary” item. Accordingly, if you hold your shares in street name and do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares on Proposal No. 1, your broker, bank or other nominee will not be permitted to vote your shares on this matter. This is a “broker non-vote.”

What vote is required to approve each item?

Required Vote — Election of Directors (Proposal No. 1). Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast electronically or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. This means that the two individuals receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected as directors. Votes that are withheld and broker non-votes will not be treated as votes cast for this purpose and, therefore, will not affect the outcome of the election.

Required Vote — Ratification of the Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Proposal No. 2). The affirmative vote of a majority of shares of our common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote is required to ratify the selection of our independent auditors. An abstention is treated as present and entitled to vote and, therefore, has the effect of a vote “against” ratification of the independent auditors. Because the ratification of the independent auditors is a routine matter, a nominee holding shares in street name may vote on this proposal in the absence of instructions from the beneficial owner.

If the Annual Meeting is adjourned or postponed for any purpose, at any subsequent reconvening of the Annual Meeting, your proxy will be voted in the same manner as it would have been voted at the original convening of the Annual Meeting unless you withdraw or revoke your proxy.

Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

Stockholders at an annual meeting will only be able to consider proposals or nominations specified in the Notice of Annual Meeting or brought before such annual meeting by or at the direction of our Board or by a stockholder of record on the Record Date for the meeting who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely written notice in proper form of the stockholder’s intention to bring such business

TABLE OF CONTENTS

before the meeting. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, Replimune does not know of any other business that may be presented for action at the Annual Meeting. Should any other business properly come before the Annual Meeting, the persons named on the enclosed proxy will have discretionary authority to vote the shares represented by such proxies in accordance with their best judgment to the same extent as the person signing the proxy would be entitled to vote. If you hold shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, as described above, they will not be able to vote your shares on any other business that comes before the Annual Meeting unless they receive instructions from you with respect to such matter.

Why hold a virtual Annual Meeting?

We believe that hosting a virtual meeting this year is in our best interest and the best interest of our stockholders, primarily because we believe a virtual meeting enables increased stockholder attendance and participation because stockholders can participate from any location around the world. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online and submit your questions by visiting www.meetnow.global/M557R6D. You also will be able to vote your shares electronically at the Annual Meeting by following the instructions above.

What if during the check-in time or during the Annual Meeting I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual meeting website?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual meeting website, and the information for assistance will be available during the meeting.

What happens if the meeting is postponed or adjourned?

Your proxy may be voted at the postponed or adjourned meeting. You will still be able to change your proxy until it is voted.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form?

It means that you have multiple accounts with Computershare or with brokers. Please complete and return all proxy cards or voting instruction forms to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final results will be disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days after the date of the Annual Meeting.

What are the implications of being an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company”?

We are an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. These reduced reporting requirements include reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements and no non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation. We expect we will remain an emerging growth company until March 31, 2024.

Additionally, we are also a “smaller reporting company” as that term is defined in Regulation S-K. We will remain a smaller reporting company if we have (1) less than $250 million in market value of our shares held by non-affiliates as of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter or (2) less than $100 million of annual revenues in our most recent fiscal year completed before the last business day of our second fiscal quarter and less than $700 million in market value of our shares held by non-affiliates as of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

Who should I call if I have any additional questions?

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS
FOR THE 2023 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 6, 2023

The Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 are available free of charge at www.envisionreports.com/REPL or at www.replimune.com under “Investors & Media” at “Financials & Filings.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

In accordance with Replimune’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended and currently in effect, the Board is divided into three classes of directors of approximately equal size. The members of each class of directors are elected to serve a three-year term with the term of office of each class ending in successive years. Paolo Pucci and Sander Slootweg are the Class II directors whose terms expire at the Annual Meeting. Additionally, the term of office of Veleka Peeples-Dyer, who was appointed as a director by the Board on June 1, 2023 to fill a vacancy resulting from the Board’s decision on March 8, 2023 to increase the size of the Board from nine members to ten, also expires at the Annual Meeting. As previously disclosed, Mr. Slootweg notified the Company that he will not stand for reelection to the Board when his term expires at the Annual Meeting.

Each of Paolo Pucci and Veleka Peeples-Dyer has been nominated for, and has agreed to stand for, election to the Board to serve as a Class II director of Replimune for three years until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his or her respective successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

It is intended that, unless you give contrary instructions, shares represented by proxies will be voted for the election of each of the two nominees listed above as director nominees. Replimune has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve. In the event that one or more nominees is unexpectedly not available to serve, proxies may be voted for another person nominated as a substitute by the Board, or the Board may reduce the number of directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting. Information relating to each director nominee, including his or her period of service as a director of Replimune, principal occupation and other biographical material, is included below.

A plurality of the votes cast at the meeting will be required for the election of the Class II director nominees. The two nominees for director with the highest number of affirmative votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected as directors of Replimune. Broker non-votes and votes withheld will not be treated as votes cast for this purpose and, therefore, will not affect the outcome of the election.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR”
EACH OF THESE NOMINEES FOR CLASS II DIRECTOR.

(PROPOSAL NO. 1)

TABLE OF CONTENTS

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Board Composition and Structure

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended and currently in effect, state that our Board will consist of a number of directors that will be fixed exclusively by the Board from time to time in accordance with the bylaws of the Company. Each director holds office until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her death, incapacity, resignation or removal. Our certificate of incorporation, as amended and currently in effect, provides that our directors may be removed only for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, at a meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose. Any vacancy in the Board, including a vacancy that results from an increase in the number of directors, may be filled only by the vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director.

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended and currently in effect, provides that our Board is divided into three classes of directors, with the classes of approximate equal size. Each of our directors identified below serves in the class indicated opposite such director’s name. Subject to any earlier resignation or removal in accordance with the terms of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended and currently in effect, our current Class I directors will serve until the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; our current Class II directors, if elected, will serve until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and our current Class III directors will serve until the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be apportioned by our Board.

Our Board is currently composed of ten members. Below is a list of the names, ages as of July 17, 2023 and classification of the individuals who currently serve as our directors and will continue to serve after the Annual Meeting or are nominees to be elected at the Annual Meeting.

Name	Age	Position(s)	Class

Effective as of June 1, 2023, Ms. Peeples-Dyer was unanimously appointed as a member of the Board by the members of the Board then in office to fill a vacancy resulting from the board’s decision on March 8, 2023, to increase the size of the Board from nine members to ten. While Ms. Peeples-Dyer does not currently serve as a Class II director, she has been nominated for election as a Class II director at the Annual Meeting.

Recent Board Composition Changes

On March 8, 2023, upon the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Board increased the size of the Board from nine to ten and, on June 1, 2023, filled the newly created vacancy on the Board by appointing Veleka Peeples-Dyer as a director.

Classified Board

In consultation with our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board has determined that the classified board structure remains appropriate at this time. A classified board provides for stability, continuity and experience among our Board. Further, the Board believes that building a cohesive board is an important goal. In our industry in particular, long-term focus is critical. The time horizon required for successful development of biologics makes it vital that we have a board that understands the implications of this process and has the ability to develop and implement long-term strategies while benefiting from an in-depth knowledge of our business and operations. A classified board structure helps to ensure that there will be the continuity and stability of leadership required to navigate a challenging development environment while resisting the pressure to focus on short-term results at the expense of our long-term value and success. Our future success depends in significant part on the ability to attract and retain capable and experienced directors. In this regard, we believe that longer terms for our directors enhances director independence from both management and stockholder special interest groups.

Director Biographies

Information concerning our continuing directors and director nominees is set forth below. The biographical description of each continuing director and director nominee includes the specific experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led the Board to conclude that such person should serve as a director.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Independence

Under the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) a majority of a listed company’s board of directors must be composed of independent directors. In addition, Nasdaq rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit committee and compensation committee be independent and satisfy additional independence criteria set forth in Rules 10A-3 and 10C-1, respectively, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Under Nasdaq rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Based upon information requested from and provided by our directors and nominees concerning their background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board has determined, upon the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, that each of our directors and nominees other than Philip Astley-Sparke, our Chief Executive Officer, and Robert Coffin, Ph.D., our President and Chief Research & Development Officer, has no relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and is independent within the meaning of the director independence standards of Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. Our Board has also determined that each of the current members of our Audit Committee and our Compensation Committee as set forth in the “Board Committees” section below satisfies the independence standards for such committee. In making such determination, our Board considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with Replimune and all other facts and circumstances deemed relevant in determining their independence.

There are no family relationships among any of our directors, nominees or executive officers.

Board Meetings, Attendance and Executive Sessions

The Board held five (5) meetings and took action by written consent five (5) times during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. All Board members attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and the committees of the Board on which they served. Executive sessions, or meetings of the outside (non-management) directors without management present, are held regularly. The non-management directors met in executive session during all but one Board meeting during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. We encourage our directors to attend our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which we have historically held immediately after a meeting of the Board. Dieter Weinand, Philip Astley-Sparke, Robert Coffin, Sander Slootweg, Joseph Slattery, Kapil Dhingra, Hyam Levitsky, Christy Oliger and Paolo Pucci attended the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders via teleconference.

Board of Directors Leadership Structure

The positions of Chairperson of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are presently separated. Separating these positions allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the Chairperson of the Board to lead our Board in its fundamental role of providing advice to, and independent oversight of, management. Our Board recognizes the time, effort and energy that the Chief Executive Officer is required to devote to his position in the current business environment, as well as the commitment required to serve as our chairperson, particularly as the Board’s oversight responsibilities continue to grow. Our Board believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for us at this time and demonstrates our commitment to good corporate governance.

Dieter Weinand has served as the Chairperson of the Board since April 1, 2020. Prior to Mr. Weinand’s appointment as the Chairperson of the Board, Philip Astley-Sparke served as the Executive Chairman of the Board and Joseph Slattery served as the lead independent director of the Board. The position of lead independent director of the Board has been vacant since Mr. Weinand’s appointment as Chairperson of the Board.

The Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight

Our management team is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks we face, while our Board, as a whole and through committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. Our

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Board performs this oversight role by using several different levels of review. In connection with its reviews of the operations and corporate functions of our company, our Board addresses the primary risks associated with those operations and corporate functions. In addition, our Board reviews the risks associated with our company’s business strategies periodically throughout the year as part of its consideration of undertaking any such business strategies.

The role of the Board in overseeing the management of our risks is conducted primarily through committees of the Board, as described in the descriptions of each of the committees below and in the charters of each such committee. The full Board (or the appropriate Board committee in the case of risks that are under the purview of a particular committee) discusses with management our major risk exposures, their potential impacts on us, and the steps we take to manage them. When a Board committee is responsible for evaluating and overseeing the management of a particular risk or risks, the chairperson of the relevant committee reports on the discussion to the full Board during the committee reports portion of the next Board meeting. This enables the Board and its committees to coordinate the risk oversight role, particularly with respect to risk interrelationships.

The Board of Directors’ Role in Cybersecurity Risk Oversight

Our Audit Committee has primary responsibility for management and mitigation of the cybersecurity and information technology risks facing our Company. As part of the Board’s role in overseeing our risk management program, the Audit Committee and Board devote time and attention to cybersecurity-related risks. Specifically, the Audit Committee and Board receive reports on cybersecurity and information technology matters, and related risk exposures, initiatives, and readiness programs, among others, from management. The Audit Committee also regularly updates the Board on such matters.

The Board of Directors’ Role in Environmental, Social and Governance Oversight

Our Board and management believe that Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) matters are important to the Company’s social responsibility and have made the furtherance of ESG initiatives a priority. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is taking the lead in ESG initiatives across the Company and making recommendations to our Board regarding the Company’s ESG initiatives. Our Board oversees ESG issues more broadly to ensure that ESG risks and opportunities are being appropriately addressed by management.

Board Committees

Our Board has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and a Research & Development Committee, each of which operates pursuant to a charter adopted by our Board. Each committee reviews and assesses the adequacy of its charter at least annually and recommends any proposed changes to the Board for approval. The charters for each of our Board committees are all available on our website at www.replimune.com under “Investors & Media” at “Corporate Governance.”

The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. The following table describes which directors serve on each of the Board committees.

Policies Governing Director Nominations

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes recommendations to the Board regarding the size and composition of the Board.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

be taken so that the Board reflects the appropriate balance of expertise, experience, qualifications, diversity and skills required for the Board as a whole and contains at least the minimum number of independent directors required by applicable laws, rules and regulations. Unless determined otherwise by the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends, and the Board nominates, candidates to stand for election as directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, recommended to the Board that the two nominees listed above be nominated for election as Class II directors at the Annual Meeting.

Generally, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies candidates for director nominees in consultation with management, through the use of search firms or other advisors, through recommendations submitted by stockholders or through such other methods as the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems to be helpful to identify candidates. Once candidates have been identified, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee confirms that the candidates meet all of the minimum qualifications for director nominees established by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may gather information about the candidates through interviews, detailed questionnaires, background checks or any other means that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems to be appropriate in the evaluation process. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then meets as a group to discuss and evaluate the qualifications and skills of each candidate, both on an individual basis and taking into account the overall composition and needs of the Board. Based on the results of the evaluation process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the Board for approval candidates as director nominees for election to the Board. After a series of conversations with Ms. Peeples-Dyer, Mr. Astley-Sparke recommended Ms. Peeples-Dyer to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as a potential director-candidate. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then evaluated Ms. Peeples-Dyer’s qualifications to serve as a member of our Board and recommended that our full Board appoint Ms. Peeples-Dyer as a director. Upon such recommendation, on June 1, 2023, our Board appointed Ms. Peeples-Dyer to serve as a director until the Annual Meeting and subsequently approved Ms. Peeples-Dyer as a director nominee for reelection to our Board at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholders may also nominate persons to be elected as directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by our stockholders in accordance with our bylaws. If a stockholder wishes to nominate a person for election as director, such stockholder must follow the procedures contained in our bylaws. In evaluating candidates recommended by our stockholders, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee applies the same criteria set forth below under “Minimum Qualifications.” To nominate a person to stand for election as a director, a stockholder must provide our Secretary with timely notice of the nomination and the notice must include the information required by Section 2.12(b) of our bylaws. In addition, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the company’s nominees must also comply with the additional requirements of Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act.

Additional information regarding requirements for stockholder nominations for next year’s annual meeting is described in this Proxy Statement under “General Matters — Stockholder Proposals and Nominations.”

Minimum Qualifications

In considering whether to recommend any particular candidate for inclusion in the slate of recommended director nominees for the Board, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may consider certain criteria set forth in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter. These criteria include the Board’s size and current composition; corporate governance policies; applicable Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations; a candidate’s individual director performance, expertise, experience, qualifications, attributes, diversity, skills and willingness to serve actively; the number of other public and private boards on which a candidate sits; and the absence of potential conflicts with our interests. The Board does not assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion is a prerequisite for any prospective nominee.

In evaluating proposed director candidates (both proposed director candidates and current Board members), the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may consider, in addition to the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

minimum qualifications and other criteria for board membership approved by the Board from time to time, all facts and circumstances that it deems appropriate or advisable, including, among other things, diversity, not limited to race, gender or national origin, the skills of the proposed director candidate, his or her depth and breadth of professional experience or other background characteristics, his or her independence and the needs of the Board. Although we have no formal policy regarding board diversity, we consider diversity in our Board’s makeup, and our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s priority in selecting Board members is the identification of persons who will further the interests of the Company through an established record of professional accomplishment, the ability to contribute positively to the collaborative culture among Board members, knowledge of our business, understanding the competitive landscape, and professional and personal experiences and expertise relevant to our growth strategy.

Our executive compensation philosophy is to generally provide compensation and benefit levels that will attract, retain, motivate and reward a highly talented executive team within the context of responsible cost management; establish a direct link between our individual/team performance and results and our executives’ compensation; and align the interests and objectives of our executives with those of our stockholders by linking executive equity awards to stockholder value creation. The compensation philosophy for our executive officers is composed primarily of the following three main components: base salary, annual cash incentives and long-term equity incentives. As part of our annual evaluation of executive compensation, we have engaged Pearl Meyer, an independent executive compensation consultant, to provide advice and recommendations relating to our executive officer compensation arrangements. Pearl Meyer assisted the Compensation Committee in evaluating our executive officer compensation for alignment with governance and market best practices, and to provide recommendations on the appropriate compensation philosophy to guide the Compensation Committee in determining executive officer compensation.

Base Salary

The base salaries for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 were determined for each named executive officer by the Board or the Compensation Committee, each of which gave consideration to each officer’s experience, expertise and performance, as well as market compensation levels for similar positions.

The reported base salaries reflect payments actually received during our fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

Annual Performance-Based Incentive Opportunity

In addition to base salaries, our named executive officers are eligible to receive annual performance-based cash incentives, which are designed to motivate our executives to achieve defined annual corporate goals and to reward our executives for their contributions towards the achievement of these goals. The annual performance-based incentive that each named executive officer was eligible to receive in respect of services performed during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 was determined at the discretion of the Board and Compensation Committee based in part on the extent to which the named executive officer achieved the corporate goals and individual objectives that our Board established at the beginning of the fiscal year. After the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, our Board reviewed performance against each goal and objective and determined the extent to which each goal and objective was achieved.

For our fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, Mr. Astley-Sparke, Ms. Franchi and Mr. Patel were eligible to receive a target bonus of up to 60%, 40% and 40% of their respective base salary, respectively.

In recognition of these achievements and the efforts of each of our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee awarded Mr. Astley-Sparke, Ms. Franchi and Mr. Patel 120%, 115% and 115% of their respective target bonus opportunity, respectively, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

Pension Benefits

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, other than pursuant to the plans described under “401(k) Plan.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or earn any benefits under, a nonqualified defined contribution or other nonqualified deferred compensation plan during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

401(k) Plan

We offer a tax-qualified retirement plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation up to certain statutory limits, which are updated annually. We provide matching contributions up to 50% of actual dollars contributed, not to exceed a maximum of 8% of gross salary. Employee contributions are allocated to each participant’s individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participant’s directions. Employees are immediately and fully vested in their own and in our matching contributions. The 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, or the Code, with the related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan.

U.K. Pension Contribution Plan

We provide a “stakeholder” pension contribution plan for our employees in the United Kingdom, pursuant to which we match our employees’ contributions each year in amounts up to 8% of their annual base salary.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The report of the Audit Committee is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the SEC and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended.

The Audit Committee has reviewed Replimune’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, and has discussed these statements with management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or PwC, Replimune’s independent registered public accounting firm. Replimune’s management team is responsible for the preparation of Replimune’s financial statements and for maintaining an adequate system of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for that purpose. The independent registered public accounting firm audits the annual consolidated financial statements prepared by management, expresses an opinion as to whether those consolidated financial statements present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Replimune in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and discusses any issues they believe should be raised with the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of Replimune’s accounting functions and internal controls.

The Audit Committee also received from, and discussed with, PwC the written disclosures and other communications that Replimune’s independent registered public accounting firm is required to provide to the Audit Committee, including the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 1301, as amended (Communications with Audit Committees), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, in Rule 3200T.

PwC also provided the Audit Committee with the written disclosures and the letter required by the PCAOB requiring independent registered public accounting firms to annually disclose in writing all relationships that, in their professional opinion, may reasonably be thought to bear on independence, to confirm their perceived independence and to engage in a discussion of independence. The Audit Committee has reviewed this disclosure and has discussed with PwC their independence from Replimune.

Based on its discussions with management and Replimune’s independent registered public accounting firm as outlined above, and its review of the representations and information provided by management and Replimune’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in Replimune’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Respectfully submitted by the Audit Committee,
Joseph Slattery, Chairperson

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or PwC, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. PwC has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2018.

The Audit Committee annually reviews the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence, including reviewing all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and us and any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the independent registered public accounting firm, and the independent registered public accounting firm’s performance.

Although stockholder ratification is not required by our bylaws or otherwise, the Board believes it is advisable to provide stockholders an opportunity to ratify this selection and is submitting the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the selection is not ratified, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to select another independent registered public accounting firm, but is not required to do so. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of Replimune and its stockholders.

We expect that a representative of PwC will virtually attend the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she so chooses and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders in accordance with the Annual Meeting’s Rules of Conduct.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee pre-approves all auditing services, and permitted non-audit services (including the fees and terms thereof) to be performed by PwC, subject to the de minimis exception for non-audit services that are approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of an audit. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more members of the Audit Committee consistent with applicable law, Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations, provided that the decisions of such Audit Committee member or members must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

We regularly review the services and fees of our independent accountants. These services and fees are also reviewed by the Audit Committee on an annual basis. The approximate aggregate fees billed for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2023 for each of the following categories of services are as follows:

Fee Category	2022			2023
Audit Fees		$	785,000		$	868,070
Audit Related Fees			—			—
Tax Fees		$	43,000		$	89,982
All Other Fees		$	1,000		$	956
Total Fees		$	829,000		$	959,008

Audit Fees. Consist of aggregate fees for professional services provided in connection with the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements, the review of our quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements, consultations on accounting matters directly related to the audit, and comfort letters, consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.

Audit-Related Fees. Consist of aggregate fees for accounting consultations and other services that were reasonably related to the performance of audits or reviews of our consolidated financial statements and were not reported above under “Audit Fees.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Tax Fees. Consist of aggregate fees for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning services including the review and preparation of our federal and state income tax returns.

All Other Fees. Consist entirely of license fees billed or incurred by PwC for access to its proprietary disclosure checklist software platform.

The Audit Committee has pre-approved all services performed since the pre-approval policy was adopted.

The affirmative vote of a majority of shares of our common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote is required to ratify the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm. An abstention is treated as present and entitled to vote and, therefore, has the effect of a vote “against” the ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm. Because the ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm is a routine matter, a nominee holding shares in street name may vote on this proposal in the absence of instructions from the beneficial owner.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF PWC AS REPLIMUNE’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Transactions Policy

Our Board has adopted a policy that our executive officers, directors, nominees for election as a director, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our common stock and any members of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons are not permitted to enter into a related person transaction with us without the prior review and ratification of the Audit Committee. Any request for us to enter into a transaction with an executive officer, director, nominee for election as a director, beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our common stock or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and such person would have a direct or indirect material interest must first be presented to the Audit Committee for review, consideration and approval. In approving or rejecting any such proposal, the Audit Committee is to consider the material facts of the transaction, including, but not limited to, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, we were not a party to any transactions or series of similar transactions, in which:

•

the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

•

any of the directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our voting equity, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Compensation arrangements for our directors and named executive officers are described elsewhere in this Proxy Statement.

Stockholders Sharing an Address / Householding

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (such as banks and brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

Only one copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 and this Proxy Statement is being delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address, unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders.

We will undertake to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 and this Proxy Statement was delivered. To receive a separate copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 or this Proxy Statement, or to receive separate copies in the future, or if two stockholders sharing an address have received two copies of any of these documents and desire to only receive one, you may write to Investor Relations at Replimune Group, Inc. at our principal executive offices at 500 Unicorn Park Drive, Suite 303, Woburn, MA 01801 or call Investor Relations at +1 (339) 970-2843.
