NOTICE
OF STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE STOCKHOLDERS
Dear
Stockholder:
This
notice and the accompanying information statement (the “Information Statement”) is furnished by the Board of Directors (the
“Board”) of Citius Oncology, Inc. (“Citius Oncology,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”).
The Company, a Delaware corporation, is a public company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
The Information Statement has been filed with the SEC and is being furnished, pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to notify the holders of record of our common stock, par value $0.0001
per share (our “Common Stock”), as of the close of business on January 20, 2026 of actions we are taking pursuant to a written
consent representing a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock, in lieu of a meeting of stockholders.
On
December 10, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company closed a registered direct offering and concurrent private placement
(the “December Offering”) wherein the Company issued to an institutional investor (the “Investor”) (i) 1,284,404
shares of Common Stock, (ii) a pre-funded warrant to purchase up to 15,229,358 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) a warrant (the “December
Common Warrant”) to purchase up to 16,513,762 shares of our Common Stock (the “December Common Warrant Shares”). The
December Common Warrant has an exercise price of $1.09 per share and is exercisable commencing on the date of stockholder approval. In
addition the Company issued warrants to the placement agent or its designees (the “December PA Warrants”, together with the
December Common Warrant, the “December Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,155,963 shares of Common Stock (the “December
PA Warrant Shares”, together with the December Common Warrant Shares, the “December Warrant Shares”) on substantially
the same terms as the December Common Warrant with an exercise price of $1.3625 per share and expiration date five years from the commencement
of sales in the December Offering.
In
connection with the December Offering, the Company and the Investor entered into a letter agreement (the “Warrant Amendment Agreement”)
for the purpose of amending (i) a warrant (the “July Warrant”) to purchase up to 6,818,182 shares of Common Stock (the “July
Warrant Shares”), issued to the Investor by the Company on July 16, 2025, and (ii) a warrant (the “September Warrant”)
to purchase up to 5,142,858 shares of Common Stock (the “September Warrant Shares” and together with the December Warrant
Shares and the July Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”) issued to the Investor by the Company on September 10, 2025.
Pursuant
to the Warrant Amendment Agreement, in consideration for the Investor’s purchase of the securities in the December Offering, the
terms of the July Warrant, as amended, and the September Warrant, as amended (together, the “Amended Warrants”) were amended
as follows: (i) the exercise price of the Amended Warrants was lowered to $1.09 per share, (ii) the Amended Warrants will not be exercisable
until the receipt of stockholder approval, and (iii) the original expiration date of the Amended Warrants was extended to five years
following the receipt of such stockholder approval. The Warrant Amendment Agreement became effective on December 8, 2025.
The
exercise of the December Warrants and Amended Warrants, respectively, and the issuance of the shares thereunder, was made subject to
stockholder approval in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). As a result,
in the absence of stockholder approval, we may not issue any Warrant Shares to the holders upon exercise of the December Warrants or
the Amended Warrants.
In
order to obtain such stockholder approval, the Company agreed to seek stockholder approval by written consent or hold an annual or special
meeting of stockholders on or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the Closing Date for the purpose of obtaining stockholder
approval, and shall seek stockholder approval by written consent or call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek stockholder
approval until the earlier of the date on which stockholder approval is obtained or the December Warrants and Amended Warrants are no
longer outstanding.
The
purpose of the Information Statement is to inform the stockholders of the Company that on January 20, 2026, pursuant to Section 228 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common
Stock approved the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon exercise of December Warrants or the Amended Warrants pursuant to their respective
terms (the “Warrant Shares Issuance”) in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) by unanimous written consent (the “Stockholder
Written Consent”). Our Board approved the Warrant Shares Issuance in connection with the Offering on December 8, 2025.
No
action is required by you. The accompanying Information Statement is being furnished only to inform our stockholders of the Stockholder
Written Consent described above before the approval of the Warrant Shares Issuance takes effect in accordance with Rule 14c-2, promulgated
under the Securities Exchange Act. The actions taken by written consent of the majority of our stockholders will not become effective
until [●], 2026, which is the date that is twenty (20) calendar days after this Information Statement is first mailed or otherwise
delivered to holders of our capital stock as of the record date.

Questions
and Answers about this Information Statement:
Why
am I receiving this Information Statement?
This
Information Statement is being furnished by the Board of Citius Oncology, Inc. on or about [●], 2026, to the holders of record
of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock at the close of business on January 20, 2026 (the “Record Date”). The purpose
of this Information Statement is to inform Citius Oncology’s stockholders of the Stockholder Written Consent.
The
actions contemplated by the Stockholder Written Consent are being taken without notice, meetings or votes in accordance with the DGCL,
the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, each as amended. This Information Statement is being mailed on or about
[●], 2026, to the stockholders of the Company as of the Record Date.
What
was approved by the Stockholder Written Consent?
As
described more fully herein, on January 20, 2026 the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock approved
(i) the issuance of shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon exercise of the December Warrants and (ii) the issuance of shares
of the Company’s Common Stock upon the exercise of the Amended Warrants in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). Our Board
approved the Warrant Shares Issuance in connection with the December Offering.
What
vote was obtained to approve the Warrant Shares Issuance described in this Information Statement?
Section
228 of the DGCL provides that, unless a company’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise, stockholders may take any action
without a meeting of stockholders, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action
so taken, is signed by stockholders of the outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary
to authorize and take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present voted.
As
of the Record Date, 88,275,204 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding. Each share of our Common Stock is entitled to
one vote. Pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL, as outlined above, at least a majority of the voting equity of the Company, or at least
42,398,924 votes, are required to approve the corporate actions by written consent. Our majority stockholder, Citius Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. (“Citius Pharma”), who, as of the Record Date, held 66,049,615 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 74.8%
of the voting equity of the Company, has voted in favor of the Warrant Shares Issuance, thereby satisfying the requirement pursuant to
the DGCL that at least a majority of the voting equity vote in favor of a corporate action by written consent.
Accordingly,
we have obtained all necessary corporate approval in connection with the Warrant Shares Issuance. We are not seeking written consent
from any other stockholder, and the other stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote with respect to the actions described
in this Information Statement. This Information Statement is furnished solely for the purposes of advising stockholders of the action
approved by the Stockholder Written Consent and giving stockholders notice as required by Delaware law and the Exchange Act.
As
the Warrant Shares Issuance was approved by the Stockholder Written Consent of the holder a majority of our voting stock, there will
be no stockholders’ meeting.
Are
there interested parties with respect to the Stockholder Written Consent?
None
of the directors or executive officers of the Company have any substantial interest resulting from the Warrant Shares Issuance that is
not shared by all other stockholders, pro rata, and in accordance with their respective interests. We are not aware of any substantial
interest, direct or indirect, by any security holders or otherwise, that is in opposition to matters of action being taken.
Do
I have dissenter’s rights?
Pursuant
to the DGCL, stockholders have no appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the Warrant Shares Issuance.
Why
was the Warrant Shares Issuance approved via the Stockholder Written Consent?
The
Board has determined to pursue stockholder action by majority written consent of those shares entitled to vote as of the Record Date
to reduce the costs and management time required to hold a special meeting of stockholders, and to implement the above action in a timely
manner and as required by securities purchase agreements for the December Offering.
When
will the Warrant Shares Issuance be effective?
In
accordance with Rule 14c-2 of the Exchange Act, the approval of the Warrant Shares Issuance described herein will become effective on
[●], 2026, which is the date that is twenty (20) calendar days after this Information Statement is first mailed or otherwise delivered

ITEM
I: APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
UPON
EXERCISE OF WARRANTS ISSUED IN DECEMBER 2025
Background
On
December 10, 2025 , the Company closed its December Offering, wherein the Company issued to the Investor (i) 1,284,404 shares of Common
Stock, (ii) a pre-funded warrant to purchase up to 15,229,358 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) the December Common Warrant to purchase
up to 16,513,762 shares of our Common Stock. The December Common Warrant has an exercise price of $1.09 per share and will be exercisable
commencing on the date of stockholder approval. In addition, the Company issued December PA Warrants to purchase up to 1,155,963 shares
of Common Stock with an exercise price of $1.3625 per share.
In
order to obtain such stockholder approval, we agreed to seek stockholder approval by written consent or hold an annual or special meeting
of stockholders on or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the Closing Date for the purpose of obtaining stockholder
approval, and shall seek stockholder approval by written consent or call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek stockholder
approval until the earlier of the date on which stockholder approval is obtained or the December Warrants are no longer outstanding.
The
foregoing description of the December Warrants and the December Warrant Shares is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the December Warrant, the December PA Warrants and the purchase agreements for the December Offering, which were
filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.3, 10.1 and 10.2 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, respectively, filed on December 10, 2025 (the “December
Form 8-K”). The December Warrants and the December Warrant Shares were offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.
Summary
of Terms of the December Warrants
Exercisability.
The December Warrants will be exercisable upon receipt of stockholder approval of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the December Warrants and will have a term of five (5) years from the stockholder approval date in the case of the December
Common Warrant, and five (5) years from the commencement of sales in the December Offering in the case of the December PA Warrants. The
December Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of the holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise
notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the issuance of shares of Common Stock underlying the December Warrants
under the Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such shares, or an exemption from registration under the Securities
Act is available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of Common
Stock purchased upon such exercise.
Cashless
Exercise. If a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise or if a prospectus is not available for the issuance
of shares of Common Stock to the holder, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon exercise of
a December Warrant in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in
whole or in part) the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to a formula set forth in the December Warrants. Additionally,
on the expiration date of the December Warrants, any December Warrants outstanding and unexercised will be automatically exercised via
cashless exercise as provided therein. We will not receive any cash proceeds in the event of a cashless exercise of any of the December
Warrants.
Transferability.
Subject to applicable laws, the December Warrants may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the December Warrants
to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Exchange
Listing. There is no trading market available for the December Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading
system. We do not intend to list the December Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.
Right
as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the December Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of
our Common Stock, the holders of the December Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Common Stock, including
any voting rights, until they exercise their December Warrants.
Fundamental
Transaction. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the December Warrants and generally including any reorganization,
recapitalization or reclassification of our Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our
properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common
Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Common
Stock, the holders of the December Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the December Warrants the kind and amount of
securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the December Warrants immediately prior to
such fundamental transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a fundamental transaction, the holders of the December Warrants
have the right to require us or a successor entity to redeem the December Warrants for cash in the amount of the Black-Scholes Value
(as defined in the December Warrants) of the unexercised portion of the December Warrants. However, in the event of a fundamental transaction
which is not in our control, including a fundamental transaction not approved by our board of directors, the holders of the December
Warrants will only be entitled to receive from us or our successor entity, as of the date of consummation of such fundamental transaction
the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of the December
Warrants that is being offered and paid to the holders of our Common Stock in connection with the fundamental transaction, whether that
consideration is in the form of cash, stock or any combination of cash and stock, or whether the holders of our Common Stock are given
the choice to receive alternative forms of consideration in connection with the fundamental transaction.
Effect
of the Issuance of the December Warrant Shares
The
potential issuance of the December Warrant Shares would result in a substantial and significant increase in the number of shares of our
Common Stock outstanding, and our stockholders will incur substantial dilution of their percentage ownership to the extent that the holders
of the December Warrants exercise their December Warrants.
Nasdaq
Listing Requirements and Reason for Stockholder Approval
The
issuance of shares of the Common Stock underlying the December Warrants was made subject to stockholder approval in accordance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5635(d).
Our
Common Stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, we are subject to the Nasdaq rules. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires
a company to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of shares of common stock in connection with certain non-public offerings
involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance of shares of common stock (and/or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares
of common stock) equal to 20% or more of the shares of capital stock outstanding prior to such issuance where the price of the common
stock to be issued at a discount. Shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of warrants or other equity securities
issued or granted in such non-public offerings will be considered shares issued in such a transaction in determining whether the 20%
limit has been reached. Pursuant to Nasdaq guidance, a company must attribute a value of $0.125 to each share of common stock underlying
a warrant for the purposes of determining whether the warrant is issued at a discount. The closing price of our common stock on December
8, 2025, which immediately preceded the signing of the binding agreements in the Offering, was $1.09.
We
cannot predict whether or when the holders will exercise the December Warrants. For this reason, we are unable to accurately forecast
or predict with any certainty the total amount of Common Stock that may ultimately be issued upon exercise of the December Warrants.
However, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the December Warrants could result in the issuance of a number
of shares exceeding the threshold and pricing for which stockholder approval is required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). Therefore,
the issuance of the December Warrant Shares was approved by our board of directors and the majority of our stockholders to ensure compliance
with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).
ITEM
II: APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
UPON
EXERCISE OF THE AMENDED WARRANTS
Background
In
connection with the December Offering, the Company and the Investor entered into the Warrant Amendment Agreement for the purpose of amending
(i) the July Warrant to purchase up to 6,818,182 shares of Common Stock issued to the Investor by the Company pursuant to a securities
purchase agreement (the “July Purchase Agreement”) in a best efforts offering on July 16, 2025, pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-288656), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 16, 2025, and (ii) the September
Warrant to purchase up to 5,142,858 shares of Common Stock issued to the Investor by the Company pursuant to a securities purchase agreement
(the “September Purchase Agreement”) on September 10, 2025 in a private placement, pursuant to the exemption provided in
Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act, and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. The July Warrants had an exercise price of $1.32 per
share and were made exercisable upon issuance. The September Warrants had an exercise price of $1.84 per share and were exercisable six
months from the date of issuance.
Pursuant
to the Warrant Amendment Agreement, in consideration for the Investor’s purchase of the securities in the December Offering, the
terms of the Amended Warrants were amended as follows: (i) the exercise price of the Amended Warrants was lowered to $1.09 per share,
(ii) the Amended Warrants will not be exercisable until the receipt of stockholder approval, and (iii) the original expiration date of
the Amended Warrants was extended to five years following the receipt of such stockholder approval. The Warrant Amendment Agreement became
effective on December 8, 2025.
In
order to obtain such stockholder approval, the Company agreed to seek stockholder approval by written consent or hold an annual or special
meeting of stockholders on or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the Closing Date for the purpose of obtaining stockholder
approval, and shall seek stockholder approval by written consent or call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek stockholder
approval until the earlier of the date on which stockholder approval is obtained or the Amended Warrants are no longer outstanding.
The
foregoing description of the Warrant Amendment Agreement, the Amended Warrants, the July Purchase Agreement and the September Purchase
Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each. The Warrant Amendment Agreement was
filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the December Form 8-K. The July Warrant and the July Purchase Agreement were filed as Exhibits 4.2 and 10.2,
respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on July 18, 2025. The September Warrant and the September Purchase
Agreement were filed as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.2, respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on September 10,
2025.
Summary
of Terms of the Amended Warrants
The
terms of the Amended Warrants have the same terms as the December Warrants (see Item I for a summary of terms).
Effect
of the Issuance of the July Warrant Shares and September Warrant Shares
The
potential issuance of the July Warrant Shares and September Warrant Shares would result in a substantial and significant increase in
the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding, and our stockholders will incur substantial dilution of their percentage ownership
to the extent that the holders of the Amended Warrants exercise their Amended Warrants.
Nasdaq
Listing Requirements and Reason for Stockholder Approval
The
issuance of shares of Common Stock underlying the Amended Warrants was made subject to stockholder approval in accordance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5635(d).
The
Common Stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, we are subject to the Nasdaq rules. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires
a company obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of shares of common stock in connection with certain non-public offerings
involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance of shares of common stock (and/or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares
of common stock) equal to 20% or more of the shares of capital stock outstanding prior to such issuance where the price of the common
stock to be issued at a discount. Shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of warrants or other equity securities
issued or granted in such non-public offerings will be considered shares issued in such a transaction in determining whether the 20%
limit has been reached. Pursuant to Nasdaq guidance, a company must attribute a value of $0.125 to each share of common stock underlying
a warrant for the purposes of determining whether the warrant is issued at a discount. The closing price of our common stock on December
8, 2025, which immediately preceded the signing of the Warrant Amendment Agreement was $1.09.
We
cannot predict whether or when the Investor will exercise the Amended Warrants. For this reason, we are unable to accurately forecast
or predict with any certainty the total amount of Common Stock that may ultimately be issued upon exercise of the Amended Warrants. However,
the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Amended Warrants could result in the issuance of a number of shares
exceeding the threshold and pricing for which stockholder approval is required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). Therefore, the
issuance of the shares underlying the Amended Warrants was approved by our board of directors and the majority of our stockholders to
ensure compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).
