Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election

On June 2, 2023, the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors of Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an amendment and restatement of
the Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. 2022 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) solely to increase the maximum number of
shares of the Company’s voting common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), available for grant thereunder
by 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock to an aggregate of 5,500,000 shares of Common Stock.
The amendment and restatement of
the Plan was adopted without stockholder approval pursuant to Rule 5635(c)(4) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Other than the increase to
the number of shares of Common Stock available for grant under the Plan, there were no changes to the Plan. The amended and restated Plan
continues to provide for the grant of equity-based awards in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted
stock units, performance units and performance shares solely to prospective employees of the Company or an affiliate of the Company provided
that certain criteria are met. Awards under the amended and restated Plan may only be granted to an individual, as a material inducement
to such individual to enter into employment with the Company or an affiliate of the Company, who (i) has not previously been an employee
or director of the Company or (ii) is rehired following a bona fide period of non-employment with the Company.
The foregoing description of the
amended and restated Plan does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text
of the amended and restated Plan, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

officer exculpation (the “Amendment”). A description of the Amendment is provided in “Proposal No. 3 – Approval
of the Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to Reflect New Delaware Law Provisions Regarding Officer Exculpation” of the
Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement”),
which description and text are incorporated herein by reference.
The Amendment became effective upon the Company’s filing of a
Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 8, 2023 (the
“Certificate of Amendment”).
The foregoing description of the terms of the Amendment and the description
incorporated by reference from the Proxy Statement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entireties by reference to
the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

At the Meeting, a total of 91,903,816 shares of the Company’s voting common stock, or approximately
