Pre-Funded Warrants financial
"issue to the Stockholders pre-funded warrants"
Pre-funded warrants are financial instruments that give investors the right to purchase a company's stock at a set price, but with most or all of the purchase price paid upfront. They function like a coupon or gift card for stock, allowing investors to buy shares later at a fixed price, which can be beneficial if they want to avoid future price increases. This makes them important for investors seeking flexibility and certainty in their investment plans.
cashless exercise financial
"the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares"
A cashless exercise is a way for an option holder to convert stock options into actual shares without paying the purchase price in cash; instead they immediately give up a portion of the newly issued shares to cover the cost and any withholding taxes. Investors care because this process increases the number of shares available and can slightly dilute existing holdings, while also signaling how insiders or employees are realizing compensation without needing cash — similar to paying for a purchase by handing over part of what you just bought.
immediately available funds financial
"payment in full in immediately available funds"
beneficially own financial
"would beneficially own more than either 4.99% or 9.99%"
Beneficially own means having the economic rights and risks of a security—such as the right to receive dividends, sell the shares, or profit from price changes—whether or not your name appears on the official share register. Think of it like renting a car: you use it and reap the benefits even if the title lists someone else. Investors care because beneficial ownership determines who truly controls value, must be disclosed under securities rules, and can signal potential influence or trading activity that affects a stock’s price.
Section 3(a)(9) regulatory
"exemption from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9)"
Section 3(a)(9) is a provision of U.S. securities law that exempts certain exchanges of an issuer’s own securities with its existing holders from the usual public registration rules, typically when the swap doesn’t involve a public offering or outside buyers. For investors, it matters because such exchanges can change who holds what, affect dilution and liquidity, and may occur with less public disclosure than a registered sale — think of it like swapping old coupons for new ones behind the scenes rather than selling them in a public marketplace.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 14, 2026, ALX Oncology Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) entered into separate privately-negotiated exchange agreements (each, an “Exchange Agreement”), with certain stockholders of the Company (collectively, the “Stockholders”), pursuant to which the Stockholders agreed to surrender an aggregate of 13,353,384 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), to the Company, and the Company agreed to issue to the Stockholders pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 13,353,384 shares of Common Stock (the “Exchange”). The Stockholders included funds affiliated with Blackstone Annex Master Fund L.P. with respect to 12,885,891 shares of Common Stock, RA Capital Healthcare Fund, L.P. with respect to 213,667 shares of Common Stock, and venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. with respect to 253,826 shares of Common Stock. The issuance of the Pre-Funded Warrants was made in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Exchange will settle on or about October 15, 2026.

Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock and is exercisable at any time and from time to time on or after the date of issuance until the Pre-Funded Warrant is exercised in full, subject to the ownership limitations described below. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Pre-Funded Warrant are subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or similar events affecting the Common Stock. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable, in the holder’s discretion, by (i) payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise or (ii) a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrant. Under the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Company may not effect the exercise of any Pre-Funded Warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant if, upon giving effect to the exercise, the holder (together with its attribution affiliates) would beneficially own more than either 4.99% or 9.99%, as specified in such Pre-Funded Warrant, of the total number of shares of Common Stock or the combined voting power of all of the Company’s securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise. A holder may increase or decrease this percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99%, provided that any increase will not be effective until the 61st day after the holder gives notice to the Company

The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Exchange Agreement do not purport to be complete and are each qualified in their entirety by reference to the form of Pre-Funded Warrant and the form of the Exchange Agreement, each of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
