Introduction
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this "Amendment") amends
the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") on December 28, 2018 (the "Original
Schedule 13D") by Boston Foundation, Inc. ("Reporting Person")
with respect to shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001
per share of Flex Pharma, Inc. ("Issuer"). The Amendment is
filed to report the completion of the sale of 1,386,000 shares
of the Common Stock of the Issuer which resulted in the
Reporting Person holding less than 5% of the outstanding common
stock of the Issuer and ceasing to be a reporting person under
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment
does not modify any of the information set forth in the Original
Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not
otherwise defined are used with the meanings given such terms in
the Original Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. (a) The Reporting
Person acquired 2,200,000 shares of the Common Stock of the
Issuer, or 12.18% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock,
calculated based on 18,069,476 shares of Common Stock
outstanding as of October 31, 2018, as reported by the Issuer on
its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
September 30, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. As described in the Original Schedule 13D, the
Reporting Person has engaged in open market sales of the shares
through a registered broker/dealer. As of January 16, 2019,
the Reporting Person owns beneficially and of record
814,000 shares of Common Stock, or 4.5% of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock.
(b) The Reporting Person has the sole power to vote or to direct
the vote, and the sole power to dispose or to direct the
disposition all 814,000 of the shares of Common Stock of the
Issuer it owns as of January 16, 2019. The Reporting Person's
executive officers have the power to determine the timing of the
sale of the Common Stock of the Issuer by the Reporting Person.
(c)	Since the receipt by the Reporting Person of the gift of the
2,200,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer on December
20, 2018, the Reporting Person has engaged in open market sales
of the Common Stock to provide funds for use in furtherance of
the charitable purpose and mission of the Reporting Person.
(d)	No person other than the Reporting Person is known to have
the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of
dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of
Common Stock of the Issuer held by the Reporting Person.
(e)	Reporting Person files this Amendment to report that it has
ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of
the Common Stock of the Issuer.
Signature. After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my
knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth
in this Amendment is true, complete and correct.
