Rhea-AI Filing Summary

MIRA Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: MIRA) filed Amendment No.1 to its Schedule 14A calling a virtual annual meeting on 11 Sep 2025. Holders of record on 21 Jul 2025 will vote on five items:

Proposal 1 – issue MIRA shares (>20% dilution) to acquire privately-held SKNY Pharmaceuticals via a reverse subsidiary merger.
Proposal 2 – elect five directors (four current, plus SKNY CEO Kelly Stackpole).
Proposal 3 – ratify Salberg & Co. as 2025 auditor.
Proposal 4 – expand the 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan.
Proposal 5 – allow adjournment if votes are insufficient.

Merger terms: each SKNY share converts into MIRA stock at a 1:1 exchange ratio, reflecting valuations of $30.5 m (SKNY) and $30 m (MIRA). Post-closing, legacy MIRA and SKNY holders will each own roughly 50 % of the combined company; SKNY must contribute at least $5 m in cash or equivalents. MIRA will remain listed on Nasdaq (MIRA); the 22 Jul 2025 closing price was $1.75.

The combined pipeline would include Phase I oral ketamine analog Ketamir-2, pre-clinical cognitive candidate MIRA-55, and SKNY-1 for metabolic and addiction disorders. Neither company currently generates revenue, and extensive risk disclosures cite liquidity needs, early-stage development, competition and possible share dilution. The board unanimously recommends voting “FOR” all proposals.

Positive

Diversified pipeline: Merger adds SKNY-1 to MIRA’s Ketamir-2/MIRA-55 programs, creating multiple shots on goal across metabolic and neuropsychiatric indications.
No controlled-substance scheduling: DEA confirmed neither Ketamir-2 nor MIRA-55 are scheduled, easing clinical and commercial hurdles.
Cash infusion: SKNY must bring at least $5 m on closing, partially funding near-term R&D.

Negative

Significant dilution: Issuance of shares exceeding 20 % reduces existing shareholder ownership to ~50 %.
Early-stage assets: All programs are pre-revenue; SKNY is pre-clinical with substantial development risk.
Ongoing funding need: Combined entity will still require additional capital to progress trials.
Execution risk: Merger contingent on shareholder vote; failure to approve Proposal 1 would terminate the deal.

Insights

TL;DR: Shareholders must approve a 50/50 all-stock merger that adds pipeline breadth but raises dilution and funding risk.

The proxy outlines a transformational deal: SKNY contributes pre-clinical assets and $5 m cash; MIRA issues new shares exceeding Nasdaq’s 20 % threshold. Equal ownership suggests limited immediate premium but creates a larger R&D platform targeting pain, obesity and smoking cessation. With no revenue and escalating trial costs, capital needs remain high despite the DEA’s non-controlled status for lead compounds. Near-term value hinges on vote passage and subsequent financing; however, maintaining Nasdaq listing avoids re-quotation risk. Overall impact: modestly positive strategic upside offset by dilution and execution uncertainty.

TL;DR: Governance items are routine; key sensitivity is shareholder approval of the dilutive stock issuance that conditions merger closing.

Proposals 2–5 mirror normal annual-meeting business, but Proposal 1 is pivotal. The board’s unanimous support and 21 % insider ownership favour passage, yet retail holders may balk at 50 % dilution for an unproven target. Absence of appraisal rights limits dissent leverage. Virtual-only format reduces logistical barriers but could invite scrutiny over shareholder engagement. Impact classified as neutral to slightly positive, contingent on communication effectiveness leading up to 11 Sep 2025.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

To the Stockholders of MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc.:

You are cordially invited to attend a virtual annual meeting of the stockholders of MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Florida corporation, which we refer to as “we”, “MIRA”, or the “Company”, which will be held exclusively online via live audio-only webcast at http://web.lumiconnect.com//241-211-965 on September 11, 2025, at Eastern Time, unless postponed or adjourned to a later date (the “MIRA Annual Meeting”). This is an important meeting that affects your investment in MIRA.

MIRA is holding the Annual Meeting to obtain the stockholder approvals necessary for certain matters, including to complete the Merger and related matters. MIRA has chosen to hold an exclusively virtual annual meeting rather than an in-person meeting to allow for greater access to those who may want to attend. Any stockholder entitled to attend and vote at the MIRA Annual Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on such stockholder’s behalf. Such proxy need not be a holder of MIRA’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “MIRA Common Stock”). Stockholders of record at the close of business on July 21, 2025 are entitled to notice of and are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting. At the MIRA Annual Meeting, unless postponed or adjourned to a later date, MIRA will ask its holders of MIRA Common Stock to, among other things:

	1.	approve the issuance of shares of MIRA Common Stock or other securities of MIRA pursuant to the Merger as defined below, which will represent (or are convertible into) more than 20% of the shares of MIRA Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) (the “Merger Proposal” or “Proposal No. 1”);

	2.	elect five directors to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified (“Director Appointment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 2);

	3.	ratify the appointment of Salberg & Company, P.A. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (the “Auditor Appointment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 3”);

	4.	to approve certain amendments to the Company’s 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) (“Plan Amendment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 4”); and

	5.	approve a postponement or adjournment of the MIRA Annual Meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes in favor of Proposal No. 1, Proposal No. 2, Proposal No. 3, or Proposal No. 4, the “Adjournment Proposal” or “Proposal No. 5”).

Please refer to the attached proxy statement for further information with respect to the business to be transacted at the MIRA Annual Meeting.

MIRA and SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“SKNY”) have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated June 16, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA (the “Merger”). The Merger will result in a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and potential commercialization of several novel, potentially first-in-class product candidates targeting multiple therapeutic areas, including smoking cessation, obesity, pain management, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and cognitive impairment.

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each outstanding share of common stock of SKNY, $0.0001 par value per share (“SKNY Common Stock”), will be converted into the right to receive such number of shares of common stock of MIRA, $0.0001 par value per share (“MIRA Common Stock”) as is calculated in to the Exchange Ratio (the “Closing”). The Exchange Ratio is calculated using the relative company valuations of each of MIRA and SKNY where the MIRA share value is calculated on an as-issued basis and the SKNY share value is calculated on a fully diluted basis to include all issued SKNY options and warrants. After giving effect to the Closing, the SKNY holders will hold not more than 50% of the shares of the combined company.

Immediately after the Merger, the pre-Merger equity holders of MIRA are expected to hold approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock and the pre-Merger equity holders of SKNY are expected to hold approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock.

Shares of MIRA Common Stock are currently listed on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “MIRA.” The post-Merger company will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol “MIRA”. On July 22, 2025, the closing sale price of the MIRA Common Stock was $1.75 per share.

After careful consideration, MIRA’s board of directors has unanimously (i) determined that the Merger and the other transactions and actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Contemplated Transactions”) are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of MIRA and its stockholders; (ii) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of shares of MIRA common stock to the stockholders of SKNY; and (iii) determined to recommend, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and based on the current business of MIRA, that the stockholders of MIRA vote “FOR” Proposal Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. More information about MIRA, SKNY and the proposed transaction is contained in the accompanying proxy statement. MIRA urges you to read the accompanying proxy statement carefully and in its entirety. IN PARTICULAR, YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE MATTERS DISCUSSED UNDER “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE 12.

As permitted by the “Notice and Access” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are making this notice and the accompanying proxy statement, proxy card and 2025 Annual Report available to stockholders electronically via the Internet at the following website: https://www.astproxyportal.com/ast/27484.

MIRA is excited about the opportunities the Merger brings to its stockholders, and thanks you for your consideration and continued support.

Sincerely,

Erez Aminov

Chief Executive Officer

MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Please refer to the attached proxy statement for further information with respect to the business to be transacted at the MIRA virtual annual meeting. The board of directors of MIRA (the “MIRA Board”) has fixed July 21, 2025, as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the MIRA virtual annual meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof. Only holders of record of shares of MIRA Common Stock at the close of business on the record date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the MIRA virtual annual meeting.

A complete list of such stockholders entitled to vote at the MIRA virtual annual meeting will be available for examination at the MIRA offices in Miami, Florida during normal business hours for a period of ten days prior to the MIRA virtual annual meeting.

Your vote is important. Approval of Proposal Nos. 1, 3, 4 and 5 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast virtually or by proxy at the MIRA virtual annual meeting and for Proposal No. 2, the five Company nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected directors of the MIRA. Proposal No. 1 is a condition to the consummation of the Merger. Therefore, the Merger cannot be consummated without the approval of Proposal No. 1.

Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank, or other nominee and you wish to vote at the meeting, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name.

If you own shares in street name through an account with a bank, broker or other nominee and you decide to attend the MIRA virtual annual meeting, you cannot vote at the MIRA virtual annual meeting unless you present a “legal proxy”, issued in your name from your bank, broker or other nominee.

THE MIRA BOARD HAS UNANIMOUSLY DETERMINED AND BELIEVES THAT EACH OF THE PROPOSALS OUTLINED ABOVE IS ADVISABLE TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF, MIRA AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS AND HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED EACH SUCH PROPOSAL.

By Order of the MIRA Board of Directors,

Erez Aminov

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND THE MERGER

The following section provides answers to frequently asked questions about MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s (“MIRA”, or “the Company”) annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) and more specifically, the proposed Merger. This section, however, provides only summary information. For a more complete response to these questions and for additional information, please refer to the cross-referenced sections.

Q: When and where is the MIRA Annual Meeting?

A: The MIRA Annual Meeting will be held exclusively online via live audio-only webcast at https://web.lumiconnect.com/241-211-965 (password: mira2025) .promptly at 10:00 A.M. Eastern Time. Please note that you will not be able to attend the MIRA Annual Meeting in person.

Q: Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

A: The Board has fixed the close of business on July 21, 2025 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for a determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, there are 19,069,315 shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding. Each share of the Common Stock represents one vote that may be voted on each matter that may come before the Annual Meeting.

Q: May I ask questions at the Annual Meeting?

A: Yes. We expect that most of our directors and executive officers will attend the Annual Meeting and may be available to answer questions and make a statement if they desire to do so. We will provide our stockholders the opportunity to ask questions and make statements. Instructions for submitting questions and making statements will be posted on the Annual Meeting website. The question-and-answer session will be conducted in accordance with certain Rules of Conduct. These Rules of Conduct will be posted on our investor relations website prior to the date of the Annual Meeting, and may include certain procedural requirements.

To allow us to answer questions from as many stockholders as possible, we may limit each stockholder to two questions. Questions from multiple stockholders on the same topic or that are otherwise related may be grouped, summarized and answered together.

Q: How many shares are outstanding? What constitutes a quorum?

A: At the close of business on July 21, 2025, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, 19,069,315 shares of Common Stock were outstanding and eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Business may not be conducted at the Annual Meeting unless a quorum is present. Under the Bylaws of the Company (as amended, the “Bylaws”), the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of 33.33% of the stock of the Company issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum with respect to all matters presented. If you submit a properly executed proxy or voting instruction card via mail or properly cast your vote via the Internet or the phone, your shares will be considered part of the quorum, even if you abstain from voting or withhold authority to vote as to a particular proposal.

Q: What is the deadline for voting?

The deadline for voting electronically is 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) on September 10, 2025. If voting by mail, we must have received your proxy card by this time. If you attend the Annual Meeting virtually, you may vote your shares electronically during the meeting. However, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we still encourage you to vote your shares ahead of time to ensure your voice is heard.

Q: What matters will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

A: The proposals that are scheduled to be considered and voted on at the Annual Meeting are as follows:

	1.	To approve the issuance of shares of common stock of MIRA, $0.0001 par value per share (“MIRA Common Stock”), or other securities of MIRA pursuant to the Merger, which will represent (or are convertible into) more than 20% of the shares of MIRA Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) (the “Merger Proposal”, or “Proposal No. 1”);

	2.	To elect five directors to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) to serve until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company or until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified (“Director Appointment Proposal”, or “Proposal No. 2”);

	3.	To ratify the appointment of Salberg & Company, P.A. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (“Auditor Appointment Proposal”, or “Proposal No. 3”);

To conduct any other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Q: What are the Board’s voting recommendations?

A: The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the Proposals.

Q: How can I find out the results of the voting at the MIRA Annual Meeting?

A: Final voting results will be published in a current report on Form 8-K that we expect to file within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the MIRA Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results.

Q: What is the difference between holding shares as a record holder and as a beneficial owner?

A: If your shares are registered in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer (also known as Equiniti), you are the “record holder” of those shares. If you are a record holder, these proxy materials have been provided directly to you by the Company.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account, a bank or other holder of record, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of those shares held in “street name.” If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials have been forwarded to you by that organization. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct this organization on how to vote your shares.

Q: Who may attend the Annual Meeting?

A: Record holders and beneficial owners may attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in street name, you will need a “legal proxy” from your brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization when you register for the Annual Meeting showing your stock ownership as of the Record Date.

Q: How do I vote?

A: If you are a stockholder of record, you may:

	1.	Vote by internet. Access www.voteproxy.com and follow the on-screen instructions, or scan the QR code with your smartphone. Have your proxy card available when you access the meeting. Vote online until 11:59 PM EST the day before the Annual Meeting.

	2.	Vote by mail. Mark, date, sign and mail promptly the enclosed proxy card.

	3.	Vote at the Annual Meeting. Register, attend virtually and vote at the Annual Meeting at https://web.lumiconnect.com/241-211-965 (password: mira2025) and please be sure to have your control number available.

If you vote by internet, please DO NOT mail your proxy card.

If you are a beneficial owner, you must follow the voting procedures of your nominee included with your proxy materials. If your shares are held by a nominee and you intend to vote at the Annual Meeting, please have a legal proxy from your nominee authorizing you to vote your shares when you register for the Annual Meeting.

The proxy is fairly simple to complete, with specific instructions on the electronic ballot or card. By completing and submitting your proxy, you will direct the designated person (also known as a “proxy”) to vote your stock at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions. The Board has appointed Erez Aminov to serve as proxy for the Annual Meeting.

Your proxy will be valid only if you complete and return it before the Annual Meeting. If you properly complete and transmit your proxy but do not provide voting instructions with respect to a proposal, then the designated proxy will vote your shares “FOR” each proposal as to which you provide no voting instructions in accordance with the Board’s recommendation in the manner described under “What if I do not specify how I want my shares voted?” below. We do not anticipate that any other matters will come before the Annual Meeting, but if any other matters properly come before the meeting, then the designated proxy will vote your shares in accordance with applicable law and his judgment.

If you hold your shares in “street name,” your bank, broker or other nominee should provide you with a voting instruction card along with the Company’s proxy solicitation materials. By completing the voting instruction card, you may direct your nominee how to vote your shares. If you fail to complete one or more of the voting instructions on the voting instruction card, then your nominee may be unable to vote your shares with respect to the proposal as to which you provided no voting instructions. See “What is a broker non-vote?” Alternatively, if you want to vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting, you must contact your nominee directly in order to obtain a proxy issued to you by your nominee holder. Note that a broker letter that identifies you as a stockholder is not the same as a nominee-issued proxy. If you fail to bring a nominee-issued proxy to the Annual Meeting, you will not be able to vote your nominee-held shares in person at the Annual Meeting.”

Q: What if I do not specify how I want my shares voted?

A: If you submit a signed proxy card or submit your proxy by internet and do not specify how you want to vote your shares, we will vote your shares FOR each of the Proposals.

Q: What constitutes a quorum?

A: To carry on the business of the Annual Meeting, we must have a quorum. A quorum is present when a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, as of the Record Date, is represented in person or by proxy. Shares owned by the Company are not considered outstanding or considered to be present at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes and abstentions are counted as present for the purpose of determining the existence of a quorum.

Q: What happens if the Company is unable to obtain a quorum?

A; If a quorum is not present to transact business at the Annual Meeting or if we do not receive sufficient votes in favor of the proposals by the date of the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Annual Meeting to permit continued solicitation of proxies.

Q: What is a “broker non-vote”?

A: Broker non-votes occur with respect to shares held in “street name,” in cases where the record owner (for instance, the brokerage firm or bank) does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner and the record owner does not have the authority to vote those shares on a proposal.

Various national and regional securities exchanges applicable to brokers, banks, and other holders of record determine whether the record owner (for instance, the brokerage firm, or bank) is able to vote on a proposal if the record owner does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner. The record owner may vote on proposals that are determined to be routine under these rules and may not vote on proposals that are determined to be non-routine under these rules. If a proposal is determined to be routine, your broker, bank, or other holder of record is permitted to vote on the proposal without receiving voting instructions from you. The Auditor Appointment Proposal and Adjournment Proposal are routine matters and the record owner may vote your shares on these proposals if it does not get instructions from you.

The Merger Proposal, Director Appointment Proposal and Plan Amendment Proposal are non-routine and the record owner may not vote your shares on any of these proposals if it does not get instructions from you. If you do not provide voting instructions on these matters, a broker non-vote will occur.

The Companies

MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

1200 Brickell Avenue, Suite 1950 #1183

Miami, Florida

(786) 432-9792

MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIRA) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical development company advancing two neuroscience programs targeting neurologic and neuropsychiatric disorders. The company holds exclusive rights in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico for Ketamir-2 and MIRA-55, two novel drug candidates designed to address unmet medical needs in pain management, depression, PTSD and cognitive function.

Ketamir-2: A Novel Oral Ketamine Analog

Ketamir-2 is a patent-pending, oral ketamine analog currently being evaluated for the treatment of diabetic neuropathic pain and is in an ongoing Phase I clinical trial. The compound is designed to overcome the limitations of existing ketamine-based treatments, offering the potential for enhanced safety, improved tolerability, and better oral bioavailability. If approved, Ketamir-2 could provide a safer, more effective option for patients suffering from neuropathic pain, treatment-resistant depression (TRD), major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation (MDD-SI), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), with the potential for further clinical development across these and other neuropsychiatric indications..

Neuropathic pain is a complex, chronic condition resulting from damage or dysfunction in the nervous system, leading to abnormal sensations or pain responses. Common symptoms include burning, coldness, “pins and needles” sensations, numbness, itching, and sudden electric shock-like pain. Neuropathic pain can arise from metabolic disorders (such as diabetic neuropathy), viral infections (like post-herpetic neuralgia), autoimmune diseases, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, traumatic nerve injury, stroke, or spinal cord injury.

Existing treatment options include antidepressants (tricyclic antidepressants and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors), anticonvulsants (gabapentin and pregabalin), topical agents (lidocaine patches and capsaicin), and opioids. However, these therapies often provide incomplete relief, have significant side effects, and, in the case of opioids, carry a high risk of addiction. Ketamine has demonstrated efficacy for neuropathic pain, but its poor oral bioavailability and high risk of side effects have limited its widespread use. Ketamir-2 aims to address these challenges, offering a treatment with fewer side effects, lower abuse potential, and more convenient oral dosing.

MIRA-55 is a preclinical-stage investigational drug designed to support cognitive function and enhance memory. It is currently being evaluated in preclinical studies for its potential benefits in inflammatory pain. If approved, MIRA-55 could provide a breakthrough treatment for patients experiencing cognitive decline and inflammatory pain, including those with early neurodegenerative conditions.

Regulatory and DEA Classification

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has completed its scientific review of both Ketamir-2 and MIRA-55, determining that neither compound will be classified as a controlled substance or listed chemical under the Controlled Substances Act and its governing regulations. This regulatory distinction significantly enhances their commercial and clinical viability, removing potential barriers associated with controlled substances and positioning both compounds for streamlined clinical development and commercialization.

MIRA remains committed to advancing Ketamir-2 and MIRA-55 through clinical development with a focus on addressing major unmet medical needs and improving patient outcomes.

Preclinical Studies and Pharmacology of Ketamir-2

MIRA has conducted extensive preclinical studies to characterize the pharmacological profile, safety, and therapeutic potential of Ketamir-2, an investigational compound targeting neuropathic pain, treatment-resistant depression (TRD), major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation (MDD-SI), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). These studies, performed in accordance with ICH and FDA regulatory guidelines, include in vitro and in vivo assessments to evaluate receptor binding, efficacy, selectivity, pharmacokinetics, metabolism, general pharmacology and toxicology.

Mechanism of Action and Receptor Selectivity

Ketamir-2 has been identified as a low-affinity NMDA receptor antagonist, selectively binding to the PCP-site with an IC50 of approximately 100 µM. Its primary metabolite, Nor-Ketamir, also binds to the PCP-site and does not exhibit affinity for NMDA site, with an IC50 of approximately 300 µM. This targeted receptor interaction differentiates Ketamir-2 from ketamine, which exhibits broader receptor binding, including opioid and monoaminergic receptors, and binds to NMDA receptors with significantly higher affinity (0.5–1 µM).

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

3014 West Palmira Ave., Suite 302

Tampa, FL 33629

(504) 931-6427

Overview

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“SKNY”) is a preclinical-stage pharmaceutical development company focused on next-generation oral therapeutics targeting cannabinoid and dopamine-related pathways. Its lead candidate, SKNY-1, is being developed as a novel oral treatment designed to modulate cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2, as well as monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B)—an enzyme involved in dopamine metabolism and addiction regulation. This dual mechanism offers potential applications in both metabolic and addiction-related disorders. If successful, SKNY-1 could address the growing demand for safe and effective therapeutic solutions in areas such as weight management and smoking cessation.

In particular:

	●	SKNY-1, in preclinical development, is being investigated as a next-generation oral therapeutic targeting metabolic regulation through CB1/CB2 receptor modulation and MAO-B inhibition, which play key roles in appetite, metabolism, and energy balance.

	●	SKNY-1 is also being evaluated as a potential oral therapy for smoking cessation by modulating cannabinoid signaling and dopamine metabolism, which are both implicated in nicotine dependence and addictive behaviors.

	●	SKNY is a licensee of SKNY-1 under a license granted by MIRALOGIX LLC, a Florida limited liability company. The license grants SKNY an exclusive right to make, use and sell SKNY-1 in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The full text of the SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement is attached as Annex E to this proxy statement.

The Merger (see page 24)

The Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 16, 2025 (“Merger Agreement”), was entered into by and among MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Florida corporation, MIRAPHARM Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIRA (“Merger Sub”), and SKNY. Merger Sub will merge with and into SKNY, with Merger Sub being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIRA. As a result of the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of SKNY, $0.0001 par value per share (“SKNY Common Stock”) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall be exchanged for and automatically converted into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of MIRA Common Stock as calculated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. The Exchange Ratio is estimated to result in SKNY shareholders holding 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock.

Reasons for the Merger (see page 25)

The MIRA Board considered various reasons for the Merger, as described later in this proxy statement under the section titled “The Merger—Background of the Merger.”

Fairness Opinion and Valuation Reports of Moore Financial Consulting (page 27)

In March 14, 2025, MIRA retained Moore, as a financial advisor in connection with the Merger to conduct a valuation of MIRA and SKNY, and determination of the fairness of the Merger. In arriving at its opinion, Moore, among other things: (i) reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information concerning MIRA and SKNY and the industries in which they operate; (ii) analyzed MIRA’s share pricing as traded on the Nasdaq; (iii) reviewed certain internal financial analyses and forecasts prepared by MIRA’s and SKNY’s finance departments, delivered to Moore through written materials including Excel sheets, and orally, in several meetings and discussions throughout the valuation process; and (iv) performed such other financial studies and analyses and considered such other information as Moore deemed appropriate for the purposes of its opinion. The forecasts were provided to Moore in March 2025. These forecasts were predicted and based on projections through comparisons to a peer group consisting of publicly-listed pharmaceutical companies similar to SKNY’s area of focus. The peer group consisted of the following entities, which are all in the pharmaceutical industry: Eli Libby and Company (NYSE: LLY), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ), AbbieVie Inc (NYSE:ABBV), Merck & Co., Inc. (NYSE:MRK), Amgen Inc. (Nasdaq:AMGN), Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:GILD), Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:PFE), Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE:BMY), Biogen Inc. (NYSE:BIIB) and Organon & Co. (NYSE:OGN). Moore also assumed that the FDA timelines and drug development process for these comparable companies presented in the forecast would be similar to the timeline for SKNY. Additionally, SKNY presented forecasts of the anticipated demand over the next few years for its pharmaceutical products. This included the expected prevalence of smoking and obesity across certain geographic and existing treatment gaps. In addition to the above, Moore held discussions with certain members of the management of MIRA and SKNY about the Merger, and the past and current business operations of MIRA and SKNY, the financial condition and future prospects and operations of MIRA and SKNY, and certain other matters Moore believed necessary or appropriate for its inquiry.

For a summary of Moore’s fairness opinion and valuation report, please see page 27.

Overview of the Merger Agreement and Agreements Related to the Merger Agreement

Merger Consideration and Exchange Ratio (see page 32)

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of SKNY Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically converted solely into the right to receive the number of shares of MIRA Common Stock as determined by the Exchange Ratio.

No fractional shares of MIRA Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares will be issued. Any fractional shares of MIRA Common Stock that a holder of SKNY Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive will be aggregated with all fractional shares of MIRA Common Stock issuable to such holder and any remaining fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

The Exchange Ratio is based upon a SKNY valuation of $30.5 million and a MIRA valuation of $30 million, as determined by Moore. For a summary of Moore’s fairness opinion and valuation report, please see page 27.

Immediately following the Merger, the pre-Merger equity holders of MIRA are expected to hold approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock and the pre-Merger equity holders of SKNY are expected to hold approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock. The Exchange Ratio is 1:1. Under the Merger Agreement, notwithstanding the relative values of MIRA and SKNY, in no instance shall SKNY receive an amount of MIRA Common Stock pursuant to the Merger in an amount greater than 50% of MIRA, as determined as of the date of the closing of the Merger.

For a more complete description of the Merger, the potential adjustments in the Exchange Ratio and the calculation of MIRA’s net cash, please see the section titled “The Merger Agreement —Merger Consideration and Exchange Ratio.”

	●	Because SKNY has a limited operating history, you may not be able to accurately evaluate SKNY’s operations.
	●	SKNY is an early development-stage company with no revenues.
	●	MIRA has significant and increasing liquidity needs and such needs will be increased by the operations of SKNY such that MIRA will require additional funding.
	●	Operating results of MIRA may vary significantly in future periods and the SKNY operations may increase such variability.
	●	SKNY has yet to generate revenues or achieve a profit and may not generate revenue or achieve a profit for many years, if at all.
	●	Conflicts of interest may arise between SKNY and MIRALOGX, a licensee of compounds that make up SKNY’s product candidates.

	●	If the price for any future-approved products decreases or if government and other third-party payers do not provide coverage and adequate reimbursement levels, SKNY’s revenue and prospects for profitability will suffer.
	●	SKNY expects to face intense competition, often from companies having greater resources and experience.
	●	SKNY’s future viability will largely depend on the positive development of SKNY-1, and any future product candidates, which development will require significant capital resources and years of clinical development effort.
	●	SKNY’s success is dependent on SKNY’s current and future product candidates, some of which may not receive regulatory approval or be successfully commercialized.
	●	SKNY has limited marketing experience, and SKNY does not anticipate at this time establishing a sales force or distribution and reimbursement capabilities such that SKNY may not be able to successfully commercialize any of SKNY’s product candidates if they are approved in the future.
	●	There is no assurance when or if the Merger will be completed.
	●	There has been no public market for SKNY Common Stock and the lack of a public market may make it more difficult to determine the fair market value of SKNY than if there were such a public market.

	●	Legislative or regulatory reform of the health care system in the U.S. may affect SKNY’s ability to profitably sell its products, if approved.
	●	SKNY’s directors and executive officers and MIRA’s directors and officers have interests in the Merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of SKNY stockholders generally and the interests of MIRA stockholders generally.
	●	Each of MIRA and SKNY are subject to various uncertainties, including contractual restrictions and requirements while the Merger is pending, that could adversely affect their businesses, financial condition and results of operations.
	●	Litigation relating to the Transaction may be filed against the MIRA Board that could result in substantial costs or delay or prevent the completion of the Transaction.
	●	If MIRA is determined to be an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for to continue with the Transaction and could adversely affect MIRA’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

SKNY has never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of SKNY Capital Stock, and SKNY and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on shares of its common stock in the foreseeable future.

RISK FACTORS

Following the Merger, MIRA will be faced with a market environment that cannot be predicted and that involves significant risks, many of which will be beyond its control. In addition to the other information contained in this proxy statement, you should carefully consider the material risks described below before deciding how to vote your shares of MIRA Common Stock. You should also read and consider the other information in this proxy statement. Please see the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

If any of the following risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, these events could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of MIRA. In addition, past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

Risks Related to SKNY

Because SKNY has a limited operating history, you may not be able to accurately evaluate SKNY’s operations.

SKNY has had no operations to date, and therefore, SKNY has a limited operating history upon which to evaluate the merits of investing in SKNY. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays encountered in connection with the operations that SKNY plans to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to the ability to generate sufficient cash flow to operate SKNY’s business, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. SKNY expects to continue to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. SKNY recognizes that if the effectiveness of its business plan is not forthcoming, it will not be able to continue business operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that SKNY will prove successful, and it is doubtful that SKNY will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If SKNY is unsuccessful in addressing these risks, SKNY’s business will most likely fail.

SKNY is an early development-stage company with no revenues.

As a very early development-stage enterprise that is focused on the development of a pre-clinical pharmaceutical product, SKNY has generated no revenue to date. There can be no assurance that SKNY will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to it to fund continuing operations, if at all, identify and enter into any strategic transactions that will provide the capital that SKNY will require or achieve the other strategies to alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about SKNY’s ability to continue as a going concern. The failure to obtain sufficient capital on acceptable terms when needed may require SKNY to delay, limit, or eliminate the development of business opportunities and SKNY’s ability to achieve its business objectives. Any of such failures will materially adversely affect SKNY’s competitiveness, and SKNY’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, the perception that SKNY may not be able to continue as a going concern may cause others to choose not to deal with it due to concerns about SKNY’s ability to meet SKNY’s contractual obligations.

SKNY has significant and increasing liquidity needs and will require additional funding.

Research and development, general and administrative expenses and cash used for operations will continue to be significant and may increase substantially in the future in connection with new research and development initiatives and continued product commercialization efforts. Following the Merger, the combined company may need to raise additional capital to fund its operations, continue clinical trials to support potential regulatory approval of marketing applications and to fund commercialization of its products.

Operating results may vary significantly in future periods.

Following the Merger, the combine company’s operating and financial results are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future. SKNY’s operating and financial results are unpredictable and may fluctuate, for among other reasons, due to:

	●	SKNY’s achievement of product development objectives and milestones
	●	clinical trial enrollment and expenses;
	●	research and development expenses; and
	●	the timing and nature of contract manufacturing and contract research payments.

In addition, a high portion of SKNY’s costs are determined on an annual basis, due in part to SKNY’s significant research and development costs. Thus, increases in SKNY’s costs could disproportionately affect financial results in a quarter. Other factors, including non-cash expenses associated with financing activity, could also lead to fluctuations in SKNY’s results of operations. Because of these factors, SKNY’s operating and financial results in one or more future quarters may fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, which could cause MIRA’s share price to decline.

SKNY has yet to generate revenues or achieve a profit and may not generate revenue or achieve a profit for many years, if at all.

SKNY has not yet produced any revenues or profit and may not for many years, if at all. SKNY’s ability to generate revenue is dependent on the receipt of regulatory approval of SKNY’s product candidates, which will take years to achieve and may not be obtained. MIRA therefore cannot assure you SKNY will be able to ever generate sufficient revenue to pay for SKNY’s expenses or achieve profitability. SKNY’s ability to continue as a going concern in the future is dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions and keeping operating expenses below SKNY’s revenue levels in order to achieve positive cash flows, none of which can be assured.

SKNY does not own rights to SKNY-1

All of SKNY’s rights in SKNY-1 are granted to it under a license (“License”) from MIRALOGIX LLC, a Florida corporation (“Licensor”), so SKNY does not have an ownership interest in SKNY-1. The License give SKNY the right to make, use and sell SKNY-1 only in the US, Canada, and Mexico. The Licensor retained the rights to SKNY-1 everywhere outside of the US, Canada and Mexico. If SKNY breaches the License or if the Licensor goes bankrupt, SKNY could lose its rights to SKNY-1 and all of such rights would revert back to the Licensor. Further, Licensor will control the process of applying for and obtaining any patents or other intellectual property rights in SKNY-1, all at the expense of SKNY. All of such patents and intellectual rights will be owned by Licensor, subject to SKNY’s rights under the License. Furthermore, SKNY has no control over the patent prosecution strategy, which is fully managed by the Licensor.

SKNY’s rights to SKNY-1 are subject to royalties.

SKNY entered into an exclusive licensing agreement with MIRALOGIX LLC, a Florida corporation (“MIRALOGIX”) for the licensing by MIRALOGX to SKNY the commercial rights of SKNY-1, or M308 (the “SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement”) in the United States, Mexico and Canada. Under the SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement SKNY will owe MIRALOGX a royalty of 8% on all revenue it receives from SKNY-1, with a minimum annual royalty of $250,000 that begins in the first year that there is any revenue from SKNY-1. This $250,000 will be owed even if in any later year there is no revenue from SKNY-1 or if the 8% royalty rate on actual revenues yields less than $250,000. SKNY’s failure to pay minimum royalties in any year would be a breach of the SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement and such breach would let the Licensor terminate SKNY’s rights to SKNY-1.

Conflicts of interest may arise between SKNY and MIRALOGX.

MIRALOGX is the license of SKNY’s rights to SKNY-1. MIRALOGX is a separate intellectual property development company owned by the Bay Shore Trust. The Bay Shore Trust is also SKNY’s largest stockholder. MIRALOGX is 100% owned by the Bay Shore Trust. SKNY’s relationship with MIRALOGX and the Bay Shore Trust may create, or may create the appearance of, conflicts of interest when SKNY is faced with decisions that benefit MIRALOGIX but do not benefit other holders of MIRA Common Stock. Furthermore, in light of the license agreement that SKNY has with MIRALOGX, if a dispute were to arise between MIRALOGX and MIRA relating to SKNY’s past or future relationship with MIRALOGX or with respect to intellectual property matters, there could be a conflict of interest that may make it more difficult for SKNY to resolve such disputes on terms that are acceptable to SKNY.

SKNY’s product candidates, if approved, may not achieve the expected market acceptance and, consequently, limit SKNY’s ability to generate revenue.

Even when product development is successful and regulatory approval has been obtained, SKNY’s ability to generate sufficient revenue depends on the acceptance of its products by physicians and patients. There is no assurance that SKNY’s product candidates will achieve the expected level of market acceptance and revenue if and when they obtain the requisite regulatory approvals. The market acceptance of any product depends on a number of factors, including the indication statement and warnings required by regulatory authorities in the product label. Market acceptance can also be influenced by continued demonstrations of efficacy and safety in commercial use, physicians’ willingness to prescribe the product, reimbursement from third-party payers such as government health care programs and private third-party payers, the price of the product, the nature of any post-approval risk management activities mandated by regulatory authorities, competition, and marketing and distribution support. Further, an ineffective or inefficient distribution model at launch may lead to the inability to fulfill demand, and consequently a loss of revenue. Any factors preventing or limiting the market acceptance of SKNY’s products could have a material adverse effect on SKNY’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

If the price for any future approved products decreases or if government and other third-party payers do not provide coverage and adequate reimbursement levels, SKNY’s revenue and prospects for profitability will suffer.

Patients who are prescribed medicine for the treatment of their conditions generally rely on third-party payers to reimburse all or part of the costs associated with their prescription drugs. Reimbursement systems in international markets vary significantly by country and by region, and reimbursement approvals generally must be obtained on a country-by-country basis. Coverage and adequate reimbursement from governmental healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and commercial payers is critical to new product acceptance. Coverage decisions may depend upon clinical and economic standards that disfavor new drug products when more established or lower-cost therapeutic alternatives are already available or subsequently become available. Even if SKNY obtains coverage for products SKNY may market, the resulting reimbursement payment rates may require co-payments that patients find unacceptably high. Patients may not use SKNY’s products if coverage is not provided, or reimbursement is inadequate to cover a significant portion of their cost.

In addition, the market for SKNY’s products will depend significantly on access to third-party payers’ drug formularies or lists of medications for which third-party payers provide coverage and reimbursement. The industry competition to be included in such formularies often leads to downward pricing pressures on pharmaceutical companies. Also, third-party payers may refuse to include a particular branded drug in their formularies or otherwise restrict patient access to a branded drug when a less costly generic equivalent or other alternative is available, even if not approved for the indications for which SKNY’s products are approved.

Third-party payers or governmental or commercial entities are developing increasingly sophisticated methods of controlling healthcare costs. The current environment is putting pressure on companies to price products below what they may feel is appropriate. Selling SKNY’s products at less than an optimized price could impact its revenues and overall success as a company. It will be difficult to determine the optimized price for SKNY’s products. In addition, in the U.S., no uniform policy of coverage and reimbursement for drug products exists among third-party payers. Therefore, coverage and reimbursement for its products may differ significantly from payer to payer. As a result, the coverage determination process is often a time-consuming and costly process that will require SKNY to provide scientific and clinical support for the use of its products to each payer separately, with no assurance that coverage will be obtained. If SKNY is unable to obtain coverage of, and adequate payment levels for, products we may market to third-party payers, physicians may limit how much or under what circumstances they will prescribe or administer them, and patients may decline to purchase them. This in turn could affect SKNY’s ability to successfully commercialize products we may market, and thereby adversely impact SKNY’s profitability, results of operations, financial condition, and future success.

In addition, where SKNY has chosen to collaborate with a third party on product candidate development and commercialization, SKNY’s partner may elect to reduce the price of its products in order to increase the likelihood of obtaining reimbursement approvals. In many countries, products cannot be commercially launched until reimbursement is approved and the negotiation process in some countries can exceed 12 months. In addition, pricing and reimbursement decisions in certain countries can be affected by decisions taken in other countries, which can lead to mandatory price reductions and/or additional reimbursement restrictions across a number of other countries, which may thereby adversely affect SKNY’s sales and profitability. In the event that countries impose prices that are not sufficient to allow SKNY or its partners to generate a profit, SKNY’s partners may refuse to launch the product in such countries or withdraw the product from the market, which would adversely affect sales and profitability. Events, such as price decreases, government mandated rebates or unfavorable reimbursement decisions, could affect the pricing and reimbursement of SKNY’s products and its other product candidates and could have a material adverse effect on SKNY’s business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

SKNY expects to face intense competition, often from companies with greater resources and experience than it has.

Demand for SKNY’s product candidates will likely be dependent on a number of social, political, legislative, and economic factors that are beyond its control. While we believe that there will be a demand for such drugs, and that the demand will grow, there is no assurance that such demand will happen, that we will benefit from any demand or that its business, in fact, will ever generate revenues from its drug development programs or become profitable.

The emerging markets for product candidates like SKNY’s and related medical research and development is and will likely remain competitive. The development and commercialization of drugs and medicines is highly competitive. SKNY competes with a variety of multinational pharmaceutical companies and specialized biotechnology companies, as well as products and processes being developed by universities and other research institutions. Many of SKNY’s competitors have developed, are developing, or will develop drugs and processes which may be competitive with SKNY’s drug candidates. Competitive therapeutic treatments include those that have already been approved by medicines regulators and accepted by the medical community and any new treatments that may enter the market. For some of SKNY’s drug development programs / areas of therapeutic interest, other treatment options are currently available, under development, and may become commercially available in the future. If any of SKNY’s product candidates are approved for the diseases and conditions SKNY is currently pursuing, they may compete with a range of medicines or therapeutic treatments that are either in development, will be developed in the future or currently marketed.

Established companies may have a competitive advantage over SKNY due to their size and experiences, financial resources, and institutional networks. Many of SKNY’s competitors may have significantly greater financial, technical, and human resources than SKNY does. Due to these factors, SKNY’s competitors may have an advantage in marketing their approved drugs and may obtain regulatory approval of their drug candidates before SKNY is able to, which may limit its ability to develop or commercialize SKNY’s drug candidates. SKNY’s competitors may also develop drugs / medicines that are safer, more effective, more widely used and less expensive than SKNY’s. These advantages could materially impact SKNY’s ability to develop and, if approved, commercialize SKNY’s product candidates successfully. Furthermore, some of these competitors may make acquisitions or establish collaborative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase their ability to rapidly gain market share.

Moreover, as generic versions of drug products enter the market, the price for such medicines may be expected to decline rapidly and substantially. Even if SKNY-1 is the first to obtain FDA approval of one of its product candidates, the future potential approval of generics could adversely affect the price SKNY is able to charge, and the profitability of SKNY’s product(s) will likely decline.

Mergers and acquisitions in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries may result in more resources being concentrated among a smaller number of SKNY’s competitors. Smaller and other early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies.

These companies may compete with SKNY in recruiting and retaining qualified scientific, management and commercial personnel, utilizing contract manufacturing facilities or contract research organizations (CROs), or establishing clinical trial sites and subject registration for clinical trials, as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to SKNY’s research projects.

Risks Relating to SKNY’s Business and SKNY’s Industry

Our future viability will largely depend on the positive development of SKNY-1, and any future product candidates, which development will require significant capital resources and years of clinical development effort.

We currently have no drug products on the market, and SKNY’s drug development projects is in a pre-clinical stage of development or moving into clinical stages. SKNY’s business depends almost entirely on the successful pre-clinical and clinical development, FDA regulatory approval, and commercialization of SKNY’s product candidate, SKNY-1. Investors need to be aware that substantial additional investments including pre-clinical and clinical development and FDA regulatory submission and approval efforts will be required before SKNY is permitted to undertake clinical studies and market and commercialize SKNY’s product candidates, if ever. It may be several years before SKNY can commence clinical trials, if ever. Any clinical trial will be subject to extensive and rigorous review and regulation by numerous government authorities in the United States and other jurisdictions where SKNY intends, if approved, to market SKNY’s product candidates. Before obtaining regulatory approvals for any of SKNY’s product candidates, SKNY must demonstrate through pre-clinical testing and clinical trials that the product candidate is safe and effective for its specific application. This process can take many years and may include post-marketing studies and surveillance, which would require the expenditure of substantial resources. Of the large number of drugs in development for approval in the United States (and the rest of the world), only a small percentage will successfully complete the FDA regulatory approval financing to fund SKNY’s planned research, development, and clinical programs. SKNY cannot assure you that any of SKNY’s product candidates will be successfully developed or commercialized.

We may be unable to formulate or scale up any or all of SKNY’s product candidates. There is no guarantee that any of the product candidates will be or are able to be manufactured or produced in a manner to meet the FDA’s criteria for product stability, content uniformity and all other criteria necessary for product approval in the United States and other markets. Any of SKNY’s product candidates may fail to achieve their specified endpoints in clinical trials.

Furthermore, product candidates may not be approved even if they achieve their specified endpoints in clinical trials. The FDA may disagree with SKNY’s trial design and SKNY’s interpretation of data from clinical trials or may change the requirements for approval even after it has reviewed and commented on the design for SKNY’s clinical trials. The FDA may also approve a drug for fewer or more limited indications than SKNY requests or may grant approval contingent on the performance of costly postapproval clinical trials (i.e., Phase IV trials). In addition, the FDA may not approve the labeling claims that SKNY believe is necessary or desirable for the successful commercialization of SKNY’s product candidates.

If SKNY is unable to obtain regulatory approval for its drug candidates within the timeline SKNY anticipates, SKNY will not be able to execute SKNY’s business strategy effectively and SKNY’s ability to substantially grow SKNY’s revenues will be limited, which would have a material adverse impact on SKNY’s long-term business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.

We are dependent on SKNY’s current and future product candidates, some of which may not receive regulatory approval or be successfully commercialized.

Our ability to progress SKNY’s plan will depend on SKNY’s ability to clinically develop, gain regulatory approval for and ultimately commercialize SKNY’s product candidates. SKNY’s ability to successfully commercialize SKNY’s product candidates will depend on, among other things, SKNY’s ability to:

●	successfully complete pre-clinical and other nonclinical studies and clinical trials in a manner that allows us to progress SKNY’s studies;

●	receive IND acceptance and regulatory approvals from the FDA;

●	produce, through a validated process, in manufacturing facilities inspected and approved by regulatory authorities, including the FDA, sufficiently large quantities of product candidates to permit successful commercialization;

●	obtain reimbursement from payers such as government health care programs and insurance companies and achieve commercially attractive levels of pricing;

●	secure acceptance of SKNY’s product candidates from physicians, health care payers, patients, and the medical community;

●	create positive publicity surrounding SKNY’s product candidates;

●	manage SKNY’s spending as costs and expenses increase due to clinical trials and commercialization; and

●	obtain and enforce sufficient intellectual property rights for SKNY’s product candidates.

SKNY’s failure or delay with respect to any of the factors above could have a material adverse effect on SKNY’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Results of pre-clinical studies and earlier clinical trials are not necessarily predictive indicators of future results.

Any positive results from future pre-clinical testing of SKNY’s product candidates and potential future clinical trials may not be predictive of the results from Phase I, Phase II or Phase III clinical trials. In addition, SKNY’s interpretation of results derived from clinical data or SKNY’s conclusions based on SKNY’s pre-clinical data may prove inaccurate. Frequently, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies have suffered significant setbacks in clinical trials after achieving positive results in pre-clinical testing and early phase clinical trials, and SKNY cannot be certain that SKNY will not face similar setbacks. These setbacks may be caused by the fact that pre-clinical and clinical data can be susceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Furthermore, certain product candidates may perform satisfactorily in pre-clinical studies and clinical trials but nonetheless fail to obtain FDA approval or appropriate approvals by the appropriate regulatory authorities in other countries. If SKNY fails to produce positive results in SKNY’s clinical trials for SKNY’s product candidates, the development timeline and regulatory approval and commercialization prospects for them and as a result SKNY’s business and financial prospects would be materially adversely affected.

We have limited marketing experience, and SKNY does not anticipate at this time establishing a sales force or distribution and reimbursement capabilities, and SKNY may not be able to successfully commercialize any of SKNY’s product candidates if they are approved in the future.

If regulatory approval of SKNY’s products is ever obtained, SKNY’s ability to generate revenues ultimately depends on SKNY’s ability to sell SKNY’s approved products and secure adequate third-party reimbursement. SKNY currently has limited experience in marketing and selling SKNY’s products. SKNY currently does not have any products approved for sale in the United States or in any other country.

The commercial success of SKNY’s product candidates will not even be possible for the foreseeable future and will depend on a number of factors beyond SKNY’s control, including the willingness of physicians to prescribe SKNY’s products to patients, payers’ willingness and ability to pay for the drugs, the level of pricing achieved, patients’ response to SKNY’s drugs and the ability of SKNY’s marketing partners to generate sales. There can be no guarantee that SKNY will be able to establish or maintain the personnel, systems, arrangements and capabilities necessary to successfully commercialize SKNY’s product candidates that may be approved by the FDA in the future. If SKNY fails to establish or maintain successful marketing, sales and reimbursement capabilities or fail to enter into successful marketing arrangements with third parties, SKNY’s product revenues may suffer.

Should SKNY later determine that it is in SKNY’s best interest to develop a sales force, SKNY may be unable to effectively train and equip SKNY’s sales force, therefore SKNY’s ability to successfully commercialize SKNY’s products may be harmed.

We may be required to expend significant time and resources to train SKNY’s sales force to be credible, persuasive and compliant with applicable laws in marketing SKNY’s product candidates to physicians for their approved uses. In addition, SKNY must continue to train its sales force to ensure that a consistent and appropriate message about SKNY’s product candidates delivered to SKNY’s potential customers. If MIRA is unable to effectively train its sales force and equip them with effective materials, including medical and sales literature, to help them inform and educate potential customers about the benefits of Ketamir-2 and MIRA-55 and SKNY’s product candidates and its proper administration, SKNY’s efforts to successfully commercialize its product candidates could be jeopardized, which would negatively impact SKNY’s ability to generate product revenues.

The manufacture of SKNY’s product candidates is complex and uncertain, and until SKNY develops a validated manufacturing process, SKNY may encounter difficulties in supplying its planned and future clinical trials. If SKNY encounters such difficulties, or fails to meet quality standards, SKNY’s ability to meet clinical timelines and expand its development strategy could be impacted.

The processes involved in manufacturing SKNY’s other product candidates are complex, expensive, highly regulated and subject to multiple risks and uncertainties. In addition, as product candidates are developed through early to late-stage clinical trials and then to approval and commercialization, it is common that various aspects of the development program, such as manufacturing methods, are modified along the way to optimize the scale, process and results. Any changes to the manufacturing processes carry the risk that they will not achieve these intended objectives, or that the product candidates may not meet the rigorous quality standards necessary for use in SKNY’s pre-clinical or clinical trials.

Also, if planned or future manufacturing of SKNY’s product candidates fails to meet the quality standards for use in its pre-clinical or clinical trials, or the active drug substance does not meet its quality specifications, it could impact SKNY’s timelines and limit its development strategy.

SKNY’s management and personnel, systems, and facilities currently in place may not be adequate to support its business plan and future growth. As a result, SKNY may need to further expand certain areas of its organization.

SKNY’s operations, growth and various projects requires that it:

●	continue to improve its operational, financial, management and regulatory compliance controls and reporting systems and procedures;

●	attract and retain enough talented employees;

●	manage its clinical trials effectively;

●	manage its external manufacturing operations with contract research organizations effectively and in a cost-effective manner; and

●	manage its development efforts effectively while carrying out its contractual obligations to contractors and other third parties.

In addition, SKNY may utilize the services of part-time outside consultants and contractors to perform several tasks for it, including tasks related to compliance programs, clinical trial management, regulatory affairs, formulation development and other drug development functions. Its growth strategy may entail expanding its use of consultants and contractors to implement these and other tasks going forward. If SKNY is not able to effectively expand its organization by hiring new employees and expanding its consultants and contractors, it may be unable to successfully implement the tasks necessary to effectively execute on its planned research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization activities and, accordingly, may not achieve its research, development and commercialization goals.

Risks Related to the Merger

There is no assurance when or if the Merger will be completed.

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions as set forth in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, the receipt of the MIRA Stockholder Approval and the approval of NASDAQ. Further, at the time of the completion of the Merger, under the terms of the Merger Agreement, SKNY must have cash and marketable securities valued at $5 million. There can be no assurance that any conditions, consents, clearances or approvals necessary or advisable to be obtained in connection with the Merger will be obtained in a timely manner or at all, or whether they will be subject to actions, conditions, limitations or restrictions that may jeopardize or delay the completion of the Transaction, materially reduce or delay the anticipated benefits of the Merger or allow the parties to terminate the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances, including, among others, if the Merger has not been completed by the outside date of December 31, 2025 or if a governmental entity of competent jurisdiction has issued or granted an order, judgment, decree, ruling or injunction that results in a permanent restraint that has become final and nonappealable or imposes, as a final and nonappealable condition. See “The Merger Agreement—Termination.”

The price of MIRA’s common stock is subject to fluctuations

The market price of MIRA Common Stock is subject to general price fluctuations in the market for publicly traded equity securities and has experienced volatility in the past. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors, including, among others, general market and economic conditions, changes in the businesses, operations and prospects of MIRA, and an evolving regulatory landscape. Market assessments of the benefits of the Merger and the likelihood that the Merger will be completed, as well as general and industry specific market and economic conditions, may also impact the market price of MIRA Common Stock. Many of these factors are beyond MIRA’s control. You are encouraged to obtain current market price quotations for MIRA Common Stock before you determine how to vote on the Merger.

There has been no public market for SKNY Common Stock and the lack of a public market may make it more difficult to determine the fair market value of SKNY than if there were such a public market.

The outstanding shares of SKNY Common Stock are privately held and are not traded on any public market. The lack of a public market makes it more difficult to determine the fair market value of SKNY than if the outstanding shares of SKNY Comon Stock were traded publicly. The value ascribed to SKNY in the Merger and in the Merger Consideration may not be indicative of the price at which the outstanding shares of SKNY Common Stock may have traded on a public market if such were available. The Merger Consideration to be paid to SKNY stockholders was determined based on negotiations between MIRA and SKNY and not on the basis of market prices. The relative values of MIRA and SKNY may not be indicative of the price at which the shares of SKNY Common Stock may have been traded on a public market.

SKNY may fail to expand its manufacturing capability in time to meet market demand for SKNY’s products and product candidates, and the FDA may refuse to accept SKNY’s facilities or those of its contract manufacturers as being suitable for the production of SKNY’s products and product candidates. Any problems in SKNY’s manufacturing process could have a material adverse effect on MIRA’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Before SKNY can begin commercial manufacture of any product candidates for sale in the U.S., it must obtain FDA regulatory approval for the product, which requires a successful FDA inspection of its manufacturing facilities and those of its contract manufacturers, processes, and quality systems in addition to other product-related approvals. Although SKNY may successfully navigate this pre-approval inspection process in the U.S., pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities are continuously subject to postapproval inspection by the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities. Due to the complexity of the processes used to manufacture SKNY’s product candidates, SKNY may be unable to initially or continue to pass federal, state or international regulatory inspections in a cost-effective manner. If SKNY is unable to comply with manufacturing regulations, SKNY may be subject to fines, unanticipated compliance expenses, recall or seizure of approved products, total or partial suspension of production and/or enforcement actions, including injunctions, and criminal or civil prosecution. These possible sanctions would adversely affect SKNY’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Business interruptions could delay the process of developing SKNY’s product candidates and could disrupt product sales.

SKNY’s research and development activities are conducted through outside contractors and manufacturers. Loss of SKNY’s contracted manufacturing facilities, stored inventory or laboratory facilities through fire, theft or other causes, or loss of access to raw materials, could have an adverse effect on SKNY’s ability to continue product development activities and to conduct its business. Failure to supply SKNY’s partners with commercial product may lead to adverse consequences, including the right of partners to take over responsibility for product supply. SKNY currently does not have insurance coverage to compensate it for such business interruptions.

If product liability lawsuits are successfully brought against SKNY, it will incur substantial liabilities and may be required to limit the commercialization of SKNY’s product candidates.

Although SKNY has never had any product liability claims or lawsuits brought against it, SKNY faces potential product liability exposure related to the testing of its product candidates in human clinical trials. SKNY may face exposure to claims by an even greater number of persons when it begins to market and distribute or products commercially in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. Now, and in the future, an individual may bring a liability claim against SKNY alleging that one of its product candidates caused an injury. While SKNY continues to take what it believes are appropriate precautions, it may be unable to avoid significant liability if any product liability lawsuit is brought against it. Large judgments have been awarded in class action or individual lawsuits based on drugs that had unanticipated side effects. If SKNY cannot successfully defend itself against product liability claims, it will incur substantial liabilities. Regardless of merit or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:

●	decreased demand for SKNY product candidates if such product candidates are approved;
●	injury to our reputation;
●	withdrawal of clinical trial participants;
●	costs of related litigation;
●	substantial monetary awards to patients and others;
●	increased cost of liability insurance;
●	loss of revenue; and
●	the inability to successfully commercialize our products.

SKNY depends upon its key personnel and ability to attract and retain employees.

SKNY’s future growth and success depend on its ability to recruit, retain, manage, and motivate employees. The inability to hire or retain experienced management personnel could adversely affect SKNY’s ability to execute its business plan and harm its operating results. Due to the specialized scientific and managerial nature of SKNY’s business, it relies heavily on its ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, technical, and managerial personnel. The competition for qualified personnel in the pharmaceutical field is intense. Due to this intense competition, SKNY may be unable to attract and retain the qualified personnel necessary for the development of its business or to recruit suitable replacement personnel.

SKNY is subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-corruption laws, as well as export control laws, customs laws, sanctions laws and other laws governing its operations. If SKNY fails to comply with these laws, it could be subject to civil or criminal penalties, other remedial measures, and legal expenses, which could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition.

SKNY’s operations are subject to anti-corruption laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the “FCPA”), and other anti-corruption laws that apply in countries where it does business. The FCPA and these other laws generally prohibit SKNY’s and its employees and intermediaries from bribing, being bribed or making other prohibited payments to government officials or other persons to obtain or retain business or gain some other business advantage. SKNY is likely to operate in a number of jurisdictions that pose a high risk of potential FCPA violations, and SKNY participation in collaborations and relationships with third parties could potentially subject SKNY to liability under the FCPA or local anti-corruption laws. In addition, SKNY cannot predict the nature, scope, or effect of future regulatory requirements to which its international operations might be subject or the manner in which existing laws might be administered or interpreted.

SKNY is also subject to other laws and regulations governing its international operations, including regulations administered by the government of the U.S. and other countries in which SKNY operates or plans to operate, including applicable export control regulations, economic sanctions on countries and persons, customs requirements, and currency exchange regulations, (collectively referred to as the “Trade Control laws”).

However, there is no assurance that SKNY will be completely effective in ensuring its compliance with all applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA or other legal requirements, including Trade Control laws. If SKNY is not in compliance with the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws or Trade Control laws, it may be subject to criminal and civil penalties, disgorgement and other sanctions and remedial measures, and legal expenses, which could have an adverse impact on SKNY’s business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, as well as its reputation. Likewise, any investigation of any potential violations of the FCPA, other anti-corruption laws or Trade Control laws by the U.S. or other authorities could also have an adverse impact on SKNY’s reputation, its business, results of operations and financial condition.

SKNY’s proprietary information, or that of its suppliers and business partners, may be lost or it may suffer security breaches.

In the ordinary course of its business, SKNY will collect and store sensitive data, including valuable and commercially sensitive intellectual property, clinical trial data, its proprietary business information and that of its suppliers and business partners, and personally identifiable information of its clinical trial subjects and employees, on its networks, and with its third-party cloud service providers. The secure processing, maintenance and transmission of this information is critical to its operations. Despite SKNY’s security measures, its information technology and infrastructure, and that of its third parties, may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance, or other disruptions. Any breach could compromise its networks and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost, or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, regulatory penalties, disrupt its operations, damage its reputation, and cause a loss of confidence in its products and SKNY’s ability to conduct clinical trials, which could adversely affect its business and reputation and lead to delays in gaining regulatory approvals for SKNY-1 or other product candidates.

Failure of SKNY’s information technology systems, including cybersecurity attacks or other data security incidents, could significantly disrupt the operation of its business.

SKNY’s business is dependent on critical, complex, and interdependent information technology (“IT”) systems, including internet-based systems, some of which are managed or hosted by third parties, to support business processes as well as internal and external communications. The size and complexity of its IT systems make SKNY potentially vulnerable to IT system breakdowns, malicious intrusion, and computer viruses, which may result in the impairment of its ability to operate its business effectively.

Legislative or regulatory reform of the health care system in the U.S. may affect SKNY’s ability to profitably sell its products, if approved.

SKNY’s ability to commercialize its future products successfully, alone or with collaborators, will depend in part on the extent to which coverage and reimbursement for the products will be available from government and health administration authorities, private health insurers and other third-party payers. The continuing efforts of the U.S. government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payers for health care services to contain or reduce health care costs may adversely affect SKNY’s ability to set prices for our products which it believes are fair, and our ability to generate revenues and achieve and maintain profitability.

Specifically, in the U.S., there have been a number of legislative and regulatory proposals to change the health care system in ways that could affect SKNY’s ability to sell products profitably. For example, the 2010 Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers. The U.S. trade tariffs implemented by President Donald Trump may challenge us, particularly concerning the uncertainty and volatility introduced by these tariffs complicate decision making, planning and forecasting for our customers as well as for us, making it difficult to predict future costs and financial outcomes accurately.

Unfavorable global economic and geopolitical conditions could adversely affect MIRA’s business, financial condition, stock price, and results of operations.

SKNY’s business could be adversely affected by unstable economic and political conditions within the United States and foreign jurisdictions, including as a result of an economic downturn, tariffs, trade wars and geopolitical events, such as changes in U.S. federal policy that affect the geopolitical landscape. Changes to policy implemented by the U.S. Congress, the Trump administration or any new administration have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, international trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory environment, inflation and other areas. For example, during the prior Trump administration, increased tariffs were implemented on goods imported into the U.S., particularly from China, Canada, and Mexico. Historically, tariffs have led to increased trade and political tensions, between not only the U.S. and China, but also between the U.S. and other countries in the international community. In response to tariffs, other countries have implemented retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods. Political tensions as a result of trade policies could reduce trade volume, investment, technological exchange and other economic activities between major international economies, resulting in a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets. Any changes in political, trade, regulatory, and economic conditions, including U.S. trade policies, could have a material adverse effect on SKNY’s financial condition or results of operations. Until SKNY knows what policy changes are made, whether those policy changes are challenged and subsequently upheld by the court system and how those changes impact its business and the business of our competitors over the long term, SKNY will not know if, overall, it will benefit from them or be negatively affected by them.

The global credit and financial markets have also generally experienced extreme volatility and disruptions (including as a result of actual or perceived changes in interest rates, inflation, tariffs and macroeconomic uncertainties), which has included severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, high inflation, uncertainty about economic stability, global supply chain disruptions, and increases in unemployment rates. The financial markets and the global economy may also be adversely affected by military conflict, including the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Hamas, terrorism, or other geopolitical events. Sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries in response to such conflicts, including the one in Ukraine, may also continue to adversely impact the financial markets and the global economy, and any economic countermeasures by the affected countries or others could exacerbate market and economic instability. There can be no assurance that further deterioration in credit and financial markets and confidence in economic conditions will not occur. A severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to SKNY’s business.

In addition, inflation in the global economy may impact salaries and wages, costs of goods and transportation expenses, among other things may create market and economic instability. SKNY cannot anticipate all of the ways in which the foregoing, and the current economic climate and financial market conditions generally, could adversely impact our business.

Clinical trials for SKNY’s product candidates are expensive, time-consuming, uncertain, and susceptible to change, delay or termination. The results of clinical trials are open to differing interpretations.

Clinical trials are expensive, time consuming and difficult to design and implement. Regulatory agencies may analyze or interpret the results differently than SKNY. Even if the results of SKNY’s clinical trials are favorable, the clinical trials for a number of SKNY’s product candidates are expected to continue for several years and may take significantly longer to complete. In addition, SKNY, the FDA, or other regulatory authorities, including state and local authorities, or an Institutional Review Board (IRB), with respect to a trial at its institution, may suspend, delay or terminate SKNY’s clinical trials at any time, require SKNY to conduct additional clinical trials, require a particular clinical trial to continue for a longer duration than originally planned, require a change to SKNY’s development plans such that it conducts clinical trials for a product candidate in a different order, e.g., in a step-wise fashion rather than running two trials of the same product candidate in parallel, for various reasons, including:

●	lack of effectiveness of any product candidate during clinical trials;

●	discovery of serious or unexpected toxicities or side effects experienced by trial participants or other safety issues, such as drug interactions, including those which cause confounding changes to the levels of other concomitant medications;
●	slower than expected rates of subject recruitment and enrollment rates in clinical trials;
●	difficulty in retaining subjects who have initiated a clinical trial but may withdraw at any time due to adverse side effects from the therapy, insufficient efficacy, fatigue with the clinical trial process or for any other reason;
●	delays or inability in manufacturing or obtaining sufficient quantities of materials for use in clinical trials due to regulatory and manufacturing constraints;
●	inadequacy of or changes in our manufacturing process or product formulation;
●	delays in obtaining regulatory authorization to commence a trial, including “clinical holds” or delays requiring suspension or termination of a trial by a regulatory agency, such as the FDA, before or after a trial is commenced;
●	changes in applicable regulatory policies and regulations, including changes to requirements imposed on the extent, nature, or timing of studies;
●	delays or failure in reaching agreement on acceptable terms in clinical trial contracts or protocols with prospective clinical trial sites;
●	uncertainty regarding proper dosing;
●	delay or failure to supply product for use in clinical trials which conforms to regulatory specification;
●	unfavorable results from ongoing pre-clinical studies and clinical trials;
●	failure of contract research organizations, or CROs, or other third-party contractors to comply with all contractual requirements or to perform their services in a timely or acceptable manner;
●	failure by SKNY, its employees, CROs or their employees to comply with all applicable FDA or other regulatory requirements relating to the conduct of clinical trials or the handling, storage, security, and recordkeeping;
●	scheduling conflicts with participating clinicians and clinical institutions;
●	failure to design appropriate clinical trial protocols;
●	insufficient data to support regulatory approval;
●	inability or unwillingness of medical investigators to follow our clinical protocols; or
●	difficulty in maintaining contact with patients during or after treatment, which may result in incomplete data.

Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on MIRA’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Interested Parties and Conflicts of Interests

SKNY’s directors and executive officers and MIRA’s directors and officers have interests in the Merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of SKNY stockholders generally and the interests of MIRA stockholders generally.

Certain SKNY directors and executive officers have interests in the Merger that may be different from, or in addition to, those of SKNY stockholders. Certain of SKNY’s directors and executive officers negotiated the terms of the Merger Agreement and some of them hold executive positions in MIRA. Further, certain of the stockholders of MIRA also hold shares of SKNY Common Stock, and certain of such directors and officers may also serve as directors or officers of companies with whom SKNY has ongoing contractual relations. Some of such relations may create conflicts with the interests of SKNY or MIRA. For example, among the shareholders of SKNY and of MIRA are shareholders of MIRALOGIX, the licensor to SKNY of certain of SKNY’s product candidates. In some cases, such licenses obligate SKNY to pay royalties to MIRALOGIX even if SKNY is not then earning revenue on the licensed products.

The members of the MIRA Board were aware of and considered these interests in evaluating the Merger and in making the MIRA Recommendation. The interests of MIRA’s directors and executive officers are described in more detail in “Interests of the MIRA Directors, Executive Officers and Affiliate Shareholders in the Merger” on page 31 of this proxy statement.

The completion of the Merger is not conditioned on the receipt of an opinion of counsel to the effect that the Merger will qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment, and neither MIRA nor SKNY intends to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger.

It is intended that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Merger will constitute the Intended Tax Treatment (as defined below). However, the completion of the Merger is not conditioned on the Merger qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment or upon the receipt of an opinion from counsel to that effect, and whether or not the Transaction will qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment depends on facts that will not be known until the Merger is completed. Finally, neither MIRA nor SKNY intends to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger. Therefore, even if MIRA concludes that the Merger qualifies for the Intended Tax Treatment, no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service will not challenge that conclusion or that a court would not sustain such a challenge.

You should read “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” and consult your own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger to you in your particular circumstances.

MIRA is subject to various uncertainties, including contractual restrictions and requirements while the Merger is pending, that could adversely affect their businesses, financial condition and results of operations.

During the pendency of the Merger, it is possible that commercial partners and/or other persons with whom MIRA has a business relationship may elect to delay or defer certain business decisions or seek to terminate, change or renegotiate their relationships with MIRA as a result of the Merger. Such events and actions could significantly reduce the expected benefits of the Merger and/or negatively affect MIRA’s revenues, earnings and cash flows, MIRA’s plans for commercialization and approval of SKNY’s products and the market price of MIRA Common Stock, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. Uncertainty about the effects of the Merger on employees may impair the ability of MIRA to attract, retain and motivate key personnel during the pendency of the Merger. If key employees depart because of issues related to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with MIRA following the completion of the Merger, MIRA may have to incur significant costs in identifying, hiring and retaining replacements for departing employees and may lose significant expertise and talent. Matters relating to the Merger will require substantial commitments of time and resources by MIRA management which would otherwise have been devoted to dayto-day operations and other opportunities that may have been beneficial to SKNY as an independent company. MIRA will also incur significant costs related to the Merger, some of which must be paid even if the Merger is not completed. These costs are substantial and include financial advisory, legal and accounting costs.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, MIRA is also subject to restrictions on the conduct of its business prior to the completion of the Merger, which may adversely affect its ability to execute certain of its business strategies, including the ability in certain cases to amend its organizational documents or pay dividends or distributions. Such limitations could adversely affect MIRA’s business, strategy, operations and prospects prior to the completion of the Merger.

Each of the risks described above may be exacerbated by delays or other adverse developments with respect to the completion of the Merger.

Litigation relating to the Merger may be filed against the MIRA Board that could result in substantial costs or delay or prevent the completion of the Merger.

In connection with the Merger, it is possible that stockholders of SKNY and/or MIRA may file lawsuits against the SKNY Board and/or the MIRA Board. Among other remedies, these stockholders could seek damages and/or to enjoin the Merger. The outcome of any litigation is uncertain and any such potential lawsuits could prevent or delay the completion of the Merger and/or result in substantial costs. Any such actions may create uncertainty relating to the Merger and may be distracting to management. Further, the defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the Merger is completed may adversely affect MIRA’s business, financial condition and results of operations following the completion of the Merger.

Risks Related to MIRA after Completion of the Merger

MIRA may not be able to integrate SKNY’s development activities into its own operations or manage the combined business effectively, and many of the anticipated synergies and other benefits of acquiring SKNY may not be realized or may not be realized within the expected time frame.

MIRA and SKNY entered into the Merger Agreement with the expectation that the Transaction would result in various benefits, including, among other things, operating efficiencies, synergies and cost savings. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the Merger is subject to a number of uncertainties, including whether the development efforts of SKNY can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner.

It is possible that the integration process could take longer than anticipated or that the management of the combined business could be more difficult than expected, and could result in the disruption of ongoing businesses, processes, systems and business relationships, inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures, practices, policies and compensation arrangements, higher than expected costs or difficulties in achieving anticipated synergies, business opportunities and growth prospects from the Merger, any of which could adversely affect MIRA’s ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger. MIRA’s results of operations could also be adversely affected by any issues attributable to either company’s operations that arise or are based on events or actions that occur before the Closing. The integration of SKNY’s development work is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and no assurance can be given that the anticipated benefits of the Merger will be realized or, if realized, the timing of their realization. Failure to achieve these anticipated benefits could adversely affect MIRA and the future businesses of SKNY and/or MIRA as well as MIRA’s financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Uncertainties associated with the Merger may cause a loss of management personnel and other key employees, and MIRA SKNY may have difficulty attracting and motivating management personnel and other key employees, which could adversely affect the future businesses and operations of MIRA.

Both MIRA and SKNY are dependent on the experience and industry knowledge of their respective management personnel and other key employees to execute their business plans. MIRA’s success after the completion of the Merger will depend in part upon the ability of MIRA to attract, motivate and retain management personnel and other employees to pursue the development of the MIRA and SKNY therapies. Prior to completion of the Merger, current and prospective employees of MIRA may experience uncertainty about their roles following the completion of the Merger, which may have an adverse effect on the ability of each of MIRA and SKNY to motivate or retain management personnel and other key employees. In addition, no assurance can be given that MIRA will be able to attract, motivate or retain management personnel and other key employees to the same extent that SKNY had previously been able. If management personnel or other key employees terminate their employment, MIRA’s business activities may be adversely affected, and management’s attention may be diverted from successfully integrating MIRA and SKNY which may cause MIRA’s progress to suffer.

MIRA will incur significant transaction and integration-related costs in connection with the Merger, which could adversely affect MIRA’s ability to execute its integration plan and achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger.

MIRA expects to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with the Merger and combining the operations of the two companies. MIRA continues to assess the magnitude of these Merger and integration-related costs, and additional unanticipated

costs may also be incurred. Although MIRA expects that the elimination or avoidance of duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the businesses of MIRA and SKNY, should allow SKNY to offset integrationrelated costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term or at all.

The market price of MIRA Common Stock may decline as a result of the Merger and the issuance of shares of MIRA Common Stock to SKNY stockholders in the Merger may have a negative impact on MIRA’s financial results, including future earnings per share.

The market price of MIRA Common Stock may decline as a result of the Merger, and holders of MIRA Common Stock (including holders of SKNY Common Stock who receive MIRA Common Stock) could see a decrease in the value of their

investment holdings if, among other things, MIRA is unable to achieve the expected growth in earnings, or if the anticipated benefits, including synergies, cost savings, innovation and operational efficiencies, from the Merger are not realized, or if the Merger and integration-related costs related to the Merger are greater than expected. The market price of MIRA Common Stock may also decline if MIRA does not achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger as rapidly or to the extent expected by financial or industry analysts or if the effects of the Merger on MIRA’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows are not otherwise consistent with the expectations of financial or industry analysts. The issuance of shares of MIRA Common Stock in the Merger could on its own have the effect of depressing the market price for MIRA Common Stock. In addition, some SKNY stockholders may decide not to continue to hold the shares of MIRA Common Stock they receive as a result of the Merger, and any such sales of MIRA Common Stock could have the effect of depressing the market price for MIRA Common Stock. Moreover, general fluctuations in stock markets could have a material adverse effect on the market for, or liquidity of, MIRA Common Stock, regardless of the actual operating performance of MIRA or the surviving company following the completion of the Merger.

If MIRA is found to be an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our business as contemplated and could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We intend to conduct our business so as not to become regulated as an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act. An entity generally will be determined to be an investment company for purposes of the U.S. Investment Company Act if, absent an applicable exemption, (i) it is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities; or (ii) it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis, which we refer to as the ICA 40% Test. SKNY is the beneficial owner of shares of Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: TELO), or Telomir. Accordingly, following the completion of the Merger, we will own such shares of Telomir, and potentially be in violation of the ICA 40% Test.

We do not hold ourselves out as being engaged primarily, or propose to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities, and believe that we are not engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities.

To ensure that we are not obligated to register as an investment company, we expect to comply with Rule 3a-2 of the U.S. Investment Company Act (“ICA Rule 3-a2”), which provides a one-year safe harbor from the definition of investment company to any issuer that has a bona fide intent to be engaged primarily, as soon as is reasonably possible, in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities. Our Board has passed a resolution requiring that following the closing of the Merger, we are required to sell such shares of Telomir during the one-year period following the Merger, in accordance with ICA Rule 3-a2.

If the SEC or its staff does not believe that we complied with ICA Rule 3-a2, or there are changes to ICA Rule 3-a2, our business will be materially and adversely affected. In particular, we would be required to register as an investment company This could make it impractical for us to continue our business as currently conducted. Our ceasing to qualify for an exemption from registration as an investment company could materially and adversely affect the value of our shares and our ability to pay dividends in respect of our shares.

THE MERGER

This section and the section titled “The Merger Agreement” in this proxy statement describe the material aspects of the Merger, including the Merger Agreement. While MIRA believes that this description covers the material terms of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should carefully read this entire proxy statement for a more complete understanding of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, including the Merger Agreement attached as Annex A, and the fairness opinion and valuation report of SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc. attached as Annex B, the valuation report for MIRA Pharmaceuticals Inc. is attached as Annex C, and the fairness opinion for the Merger attached as Annex D and the SKNY-1 License Agreement is attached as Annex Eto this proxy statement, and the other documents to which you are referred herein. See the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information” in this proxy statement.

Background of the Merger

On December 13, 2024, SKNY was incorporated in the state of Delaware. At such point, SKNY’s owners and executives had considered separately and independently listing its shares on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange in 2025.

In February 2025, several holders of shares of SKNY spoke with Erez Aminov, CEO of MIRA about the possibility of SKNY becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIRA, and forgo its planned stand-alone public offering. These discussions focused on MIRA’s interest in acquiring SKNY to strengthen and expand its drug development pipeline. MIRA believed that the acquisition of SKNY, particularly due to the potential of SKNY-1, would enhance shareholder value. Given the overlapping relationships and common interests between MIRA and MIRALOGX, conversations regarding the proposed Merger were frequent, direct, and collaborative. See “Interests of the MIRA Directors, Executive Officers and Affiliate Shareholders in the Merger” on page 31 of this proxy statement for additional details.

On March 10, 2025, MIRA conducted an introductory call with Moore Financial Consulting Ltd. (“Moore”) regarding conducting valuations of MIRA and SKNY for purposes of determining the Exchange Ratio to be used in the Merger based on the relative valuations of MIRA and SKNY.

On March 14, 2025, MIRA engaged Moore to conduct a valuation of MIRA and SKNY for determination of the Exchange Ratio. On March 17, 2025, a first draft of a Binding Letter of Intent (LOI) was circulated between MIRA and SKNY

On March 18, 2025, after significant information discussion, Kelly Stackpole was appointed as Chief Executive Officer of SKNY and continued on behalf of SKNY to negotiate the terms of the Merger with MIRA.

On March 19, 2025 a revised draft of the LOI was circulated between MIRA and SKNY.

On March 19, 2025, the MIRA Board held a meeting to discuss the LOI. Mr. Aminov provided a presentation on SKNY’s business and explained the potential synergies between the two companies and market potential of SKNY-1. Mr. Aminov also explained to the MIRA Board the conflicts of interests involved in the Merger. The terms of the LOI and the SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement were also discussed and reviewed. The MIRA Board approved the Merger and the terms of the LOI.

At the March 19, 2025 meeting of the MIRA Board, the MIRA Board unanimously (i) determined that the Merger is fair to, advisable and in the best interests of MIRA and its stockholders, and (ii) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, including the issuance of shares of MIRA Common Stock to the stockholders of SKNY.

The MIRA Board considered the following reasons in reaching its conclusion to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger:

	●	the Board’s belief, after discussions with MIRA’s senior management and legal counsel, that the Merger is more favorable to MIRA’s stockholders than the potential value that might have resulted from other strategic options available to MIRA;

	●	the Board’s belief, based in part on scientific, regulatory and commercial diligence and an analysis process conducted over several weeks by MIRA’s management and reviewed with the MIRA Board, that SKNY-1 has the potential to become a commercial asset with a sizable potential market and efficient commercialization plan and may create value for the stockholders of MIRA and an opportunity for MIRA’s stockholders to participate in the resulting potential growth for MIRA;

	●	based on review with the management of MIRA, the ability to expand MIRA’s product offering and engage a new product market, and the likelihood that the post-Merger company would possess sufficient financial resources to allow the management team to focus on such plans;

	●	the possibility that the post-Merger company would be able to take advantage of the potential benefits resulting from the combination of MIRA’s public company structure with SKNYs drug candidates to raise additional funds in the future;

	●	the strength of the balance sheet of the post-Merger company, which includes the $5 million of cash or cash equivalents contributed as part of the Merger transaction;

	●	MIRA Board’s belief, based in part on scientific, regulatory and commercial diligence and an analysis process conducted over several weeks by MIRA’s management and reviewed with the MIRA Board, that SKNY-1 has significant market potential and is supported by a clear and efficient development and commercialization roadmap, which may create long-term value for the stockholders of the combined company and provide MIRA’s stockholders with an opportunity to participate in the potential growth of the combined enterprise; and

	●	the MIRA Board’s belief that based on Moore’s valuation, it agreed to a favorable Exchange Ratio for MIRA stockholders, and that the terms of the Merger Agreement include favorable terms to MIRA.

The MIRA Board also reviewed various reasons impacting the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of SKNY, including:

	●	the risks associated with entering a new product market for SKNY-1 in an area where MIRA’s senior management does not have prior expertise;

	●	the risks associated with SKNY-1 becoming a commercially viable program, the competitive landscape among pharmaceutical products designed to address obesity and smoking, and the inherent technical risks of early-stage pharmaceutical programs;

	●	the risks associated with early preclinical assets and the timelines for beginning clinical development and demonstrating clinical proof-of-concept.

	●	the risks associated with the conflicts of interest involved in the Merger, including that the terms of the Merger primarily address the interests of SKNY and MIRAs’ management and related parties at the expense of MIRA’s shareholders.

The MIRA Board also reviewed the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, as well as the safeguards and protective provisions included therein intended to mitigate risks, including:

	●	the initial estimated Exchange Ratio used to establish the number of shares of MIRA Common Stock to be issued to SKNY’s stockholders in the Merger was determined based on the relative valuations of MIRA and SKNY as is described in the Moore valuation study;

	●	the limited number and nature of the conditions to SKNY’s obligation to consummate the Merger and the limited risk of non-satisfaction of such conditions as well as the likelihood that the Merger will be consummated on a timely basis;

	●	the agreement of SKNY to provide the written consent of SKNY’s stockholders necessary to adopt the Merger Agreement and the actual receipt of such written consent; and

	●	the belief that the terms of the Merger Agreement, including the parties’ representations, warranties and covenants, and the conditions to their respective obligations, are reasonable under the circumstances.

In the course of its deliberations, the MIRA Board also considered a variety of risks and other countervailing factors related to entering into the Merger, including:

	●	the Potential Conflicts of Interest;

	●	the potential expenses to be incurred in connection with the Merger, including the costs associated with any related litigation;

	●	the likelihood of disruptive stockholder litigation following announcement of the Merger;

	●	the possible volatility, at least in the short term, of the trading price of MIRA Common Stock resulting from the announcement of the Merger;

	●	the risk that the Merger might not be consummated in a timely manner or at all and the potential adverse effect of the public announcement of the Merger or delay or failure to complete the Merger on the reputation of MIRA;

	●	the likely detrimental effect on MIRA’s cash position, stock price and ability to initiate another process and to successfully complete an alternative transaction should the Merger not be completed;

	●	the risk to MIRA’s business, operations and financial results in the event that the Merger is not consummated, including the diminution of MIRA’s cash and the significant challenges associated with the need to raise additional capital through the public or private sale of equity securities;

	●	the risk that the combined company could be subject to the Investment Company Act Rule 3-a2; and

	●	various other risks associated with the combined company and the Merger, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

Neither MIRA nor the Board considered other merger candidates. MIRA’s CEO was previously familiar with SKNY and its prospects for growth and was interested in acquiring this specific company to increase shareholder value.

In view of the wide variety of reasons considered in connection with its evaluation of the Merger and the complexity of these matters, the MIRA Board did not find it useful to attempt, and did not attempt, to quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to these reasons. In considering the reasons described above, individual members of the MIRA Board may have given different weight to different reasons. The MIRA Board conducted an overall analysis of the factors described above, including thorough discussions with, and questioning of, MIRA’s CEO and the legal and financial advisors of MIRA, and considered the reasons overall to be favorable to, and to support, its determination.

The LOI was signed by both MIRA and SKNY on March 19, 2025.

At no point did MIRA and SKNY enter into a non-disclosure agreement that contained any don’t ask, don’t waive standstill provisions.

On March 14, 2025, each of SKNY and MIRA granted Moore access to its data room.

On March 17, 2025, MIRA and Moore provided SKNY with a list of diligence questions related to SKNY’s pipeline, clinical development plans, the competitive landscape, regulatory and commercial considerations. Additionally, Moore provided MIRA with a list of diligence questions related to SKNY’s pipeline, clinical development plans, the competitive landscape, regulatory and commercial considerations

On March 21, 2025, MIRA provided Moore with a detailed forecast of MIRA’s research and development and general administrative expenses through 2027, proforma financials, historical R&D spending analysis, estimated drug prices, market share information, and royalty information, as prepared by MIRA’s Chief Financial Officer and controller. MIRA’s Chief Scientific Advisor provided Moore a presentation, including targeted diseases and a roadmap for all clinical trials and timelines. MIRA’s Chief Executive Officer also had input to all deliverables.

On March 23, 2025, Moore provided MIRA with follow up questions related to diligence. MIRA promptly responded with the requested information.

Following several discussions and questions, MIRA’s board of directors approved the Merger.

On May 22, 2025, Moore provided MIRA with a revised fairness addressing additional details related to SKNY’s business.

Moore Fairness Opinion and Valuation Reports

On March 14, 2025, MIRA retained Moore as financial advisor to MIRA in connection with the Merger. SKNY had previously never been subject to a third-party valuation. Moore was selected due to its global presence, and in particular, its presence in and familiarity with the markets and professional customs in Europe and the United States. Further, MIRA selected Moore because of its strong reputation in the field and recommendations from other similar companies. Moore’s staff have several years of experience in economic and financial consulting to some of the most prestigious businesses, acting in management positions in leading consulting firms. MIRA had no material relationship or affiliation with Moore over the past two years.

The fairness opinion and valuation reports were not prepared for the benefit of MIRA’s shareholders and accordingly, MIRA’s shareholders are not entitled to rely on the fairness opinion and valuation reports. Additionally, the fairness opinion does not opine on the fairness of the Exchange Ratio to MIRA or MIRA’s shareholders.

On April 30, 2025, Moore rendered its fairness opinion and valuation reports to the MIRA Board, the MIRA Chief Executive Officer and the MIRA Chief Scientific Officer, subsequently confirmed by delivery to MIRA of a written fairness opinion and valuation reports dated April 2025.

At the meeting dated April 30, 2025, Moore rendered its oral discussion of its determination of valuations of MIRA and SKNY to the Chairman of the MIRA Board, the MIRA Chief Executive Officer and the MIRA Chief Scientific Advisor, based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth in its report. Moore confirmed its oral opinion by delivering its written opinion to MIRA, dated April 22, 2025. On May 22, 2025, Moore provided MIRA with a revised fairness addressing additional details related to SKNY’s business.

The full text of the fairness opinion and valuation report of Moore dated May 22, 2025, which set forth, among other things, the assumptions made, matters considered and limits on the review undertaken, is attached as Annex D to this proxy statement and is incorporated herein by reference. The summary of the opinion of Moore set forth in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such fairness opinion and valuation reports. MIRA’s shareholders are urged to read the fairness opinion and valuation reports in their entirety. Moore’s fairness opinion and valuation report was addressed to MIRA in connection with and for the purposes of its valuation of MIRA and SKNY in the proposed Merger, and did not address any other aspect of the Merger. Moore expressed no opinion as to the fairness of the Exchange Ratio to the holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of MIRA or as to the underlying decision by MIRA to engage in the proposed Merger. The summary of the opinion of Moore set forth in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such report. The report does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of MIRA as to how such shareholders should vote with respect to the proposed Merger or any other matter.

In arriving at its valuation determinations, Moore, among other things: (i) reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information concerning SKNY and MIRA (collectively, the “Companies”) and the industries in which they operate; (ii) analyzed MIRA’s share pricing as traded on the stock exchange; (iii) reviewed certain internal financial analyses and forecasts prepared by the accounting teams of the Companies relating to their businesses; and (iv) performed such other financial studies and analyses and considered such other information as we deemed appropriate for the purposes of the report.

In addition to the above, Moore held discussions with members of the management of the Companies with respect to certain aspects of the Merger, and the past and current business operations of the Companies, the financial condition and future prospects and operations of the Companies, and certain other matters Moore believed necessary or appropriate for its inquiry.

In determining valuation, Moore relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all information that was publicly available or was furnished to or discussed with Moore by the Companies or otherwise reviewed by or for Moore. Moore has not independently verified any such information or its accuracy or completeness and, pursuant to its engagement letter with MIRA, Moore did not assume any obligation to undertake any such independent verification. Except for the fairness opinion and valuation reports prepared by Moore, it has not conducted or been provided with any valuation or appraisal of any assets or liabilities, nor has it evaluated the solvency of the Companies under any state or federal laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. In relying on financial analyses and forecasts provided to Moore or derived therefrom, including technological and pharmaceutical situations of both Companies, Moore has assumed that they have been reasonably prepared based on assumptions reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments by managements as to the expected future results of operations and financial condition of the Companies to which such analyses or forecasts relate.

The forecasts were provided to Moore on April 20, 2025. These forecasts were based on projections through comparisons to a peer group consisting of publicly-listed pharmaceutical companies similar to SKNY’s area of focus. It also assumed that the FDA timelines and drug development process for these comparable companies presented in the forecast would be similar to the timeline for SKNY. Additionally, SKNY presented forecasts of the expected demand over the next few years for its pharmaceutical products. This included the expected prevalence of nicotine dependence and obesity across certain geographic locations and the current market for treatments. Moore was also provided SKNY’s corporate presentation as of April 1, 2025.

Moore is not a legal, regulatory or tax expert and has relied on the assessments made by advisors to the Companies with respect to such issues. Moore has further assumed that all material governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for the consummation of the Merger will be obtained without any adverse effect on the Companies or on the contemplated benefits of the Merger. Moore’s opinion is necessarily based on economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to it as of April 21, 2025. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect Moore’s valuation reports and/or fairness opinion, and that Moore does not have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm its valuation reports or fairness opinion. Moore’s opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Exchange Ratio in the proposed transaction.

The decision to enter into the Merger Agreement was solely that of the SKNY Board and the MIRA Board. Moore’s valuation report and fairness opinion were only one of the many factors considered by the SKNY Board and the MIRA Board in their evaluation of the proposed Merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of such boards with respect to the proposed Merger or the Exchange Ratio.

The full text of the valuation report and fairness opinion of Moore dated May 2025, which set forth, among other things, the assumptions made, forecasts presented, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken, is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement.

Valuation of SKNY through Income Approach Using rNPV Analysis

In accordance with customary practice, Moore employed generally accepted valuation methodology in rendering its valuation report of SKNY. Considering the data set forth below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of SKNY and MIRA valuation analyses.

SKNY’s and MIRA’s valuations were performed under the income approach, using the Risk-Adjusted Net Present Value, or the rNPV Analysis method. This method enhances standard discounted cash flow, or DCF Analysis, analysis by adjusting cash flow projections for the probability of success, i.e., adjusting for the probability of successfully advancing through clinical trials and regulatory approval. As a result, this method is also referred to as the expected net present value (eNPV) method.

According to the income approach, the value of an economic asset is derived from the future cash flows arising from it. The basic principle underlying the income approach is that an asset/company is an active ongoing concern premise and will operate in the future. The aim of the income approach is to reach the current value based on the company’s forecast cash flows.

The main valuation methodology in the income approach is the DCF Analysis. This method’s principle is that the value of the asset is the present value of free cash flow which is generated during the forecast period (finite or infinite). The first step in this approach is to build a cash flow projection of the entity (based on the entity’s business model). In the second phase, to determine the value of the asset, it is required to set an appropriate discount rate which is the basis for discounting future cash flows and translating them into current values. The discount rate reflects the level of activity’s risk. As much as the entity’s activity is risky (i.e., the level of uncertainty that exists to realization is lower) then it is required to choose a higher discount rate. As much as the discount rate is higher, then the cash flow’s present value will be lower.

Among the various early-stage biotech valuation methods, the rNPV Analysis method is the most appropriate. This method is suited for valuing preclinical and clinical stage biotech assets, novel pharma and biotech drugs undergoing development, and other life sciences assets that undergo phased development.

The mechanics of rNPV involve (1) estimating clinical trial and approval probabilities; (2) adjusting cash flow projections for risk using these probabilities; (3) discounting risk-adjusted cash flows to present value; and (4) summing risk-adjusted cash flows to derive rNPV. This captures the risks inherent in biotech drug development. rNPV provides a more accurate asset valuation than basic DCF Analysis as it enables conducting pharma and biotech valuation based on the stage (preclinical, Phase 1-3) of development of assets. As mentioned in the company description, SKNY is currently in the process of developing a pharmaceutical candidate, SKNY-1, with two indications: (1) aiming to treat nicotine dependence and smoking cessation; and (2) as a weight loss treatment.

Moore has valued SKNY under the assumption that SKNY-1 is its single project, therefore Moore accounted for expected income and expenses related to these indications alone and did not take into consideration developments that SKNY might be performing in the future.

Another assumption made for the sake of the current valuation is that SKNY will develop the two indications on its own until the successful termination of the Phase II clinical trials and following that will seek for a business agreement with a large pharma company that will perform the Phase III clinical trials (on its own account) and after the successful conclusion of the trials will continue and market the finished products. SKNY will be entitled to an upfront payment at the end of Phase II and royalties from the third-party revenues. The detailed analysis of the DCF Analysis can be reviewed in the valuation reports attached as Annex B to this proxy statement which is incorporated herein by reference

Review of Available Markets

In its analysis, Moore based the potential of SKNY-1 on the total available market of its potential users, which consisted of smokers who use medication to quit smoking. More specifically, Moore assumed that the relevant markets for SKNY-1 in the first years of sales are as follows: U.S.A, Mexico and Canada (collectively, the “Assumed Markets”). The analysis resulted in an approximate total market size of 12,869,780 potential users of SKNY-1 for combatting smoking. For weight loss, Moore applied the same analysis for a similar criterion of potential users in the Assumed Markets, resulting in a total market size of 17,092,086.

Moore then assumed that the third-party pharmaceutical company with which SKNY will reach a marketing agreement will take the following market share in each of the two indications within the Assumed Markets:

	●	For SKNY-1 weight loss, over a span of 16 years, it was assumed that SKNY-1 will obtain a 15% market share, collectively, within the Assumed Markets; and

	●	For combatting nicotine dependence, it was assumed that SKNY-1 will obtain a 15% market share, collectively, within the Assumed Markets.

Treatments: Schedule and Price and Upfront Royalties

Moore assumed that SKNY-1 for Nicotine dependence will be given to patients for twelve months at approximately $300 per month and that SKNY-1 for weight loss will be given each month at approximately $900 per month.

Additionally, one of Moore’s main assumptions is that SKNY will continue developing and testing the SKNY-1 until the successful termination of phase II clinical trials and afterward will come to an agreement with a large pharmaceutical company that will take charge of the continuation of the clinical testing (Phase III) and, when successful, for commercialization of both developments.

Moore assumed that SKNY will be entitled to an upfront payment upon signing the agreement with a pharma company and, afterward, to royalties paid based on the revenues that this third party will generate from the sales of SKNY-1. The upfront and royalty rates assumed for each indication were an upfront amount of $30,000,000 based on a royalty rate of 10%. Moore also assumed that SKNY will incur R&D expenses until the end of the Phase II clinical trials and G&A expenses throughout its lifespan. Also, SKNY will finance the costs of the IND, Phase I, and Phase II clinical trials. For each of the Weight Loss the Nicotine Dependence indication, SKNY-1 is expected to assume a total of $24,040,000 of R&D costs through Phase III testing (for each indication, and not collectively).

Summary of Analysis

Moore began its analysis through performing the income approach and the risk-adjusted net present value (rNPV) method. This method enhances standard DCF analysis by adjusting cash flow projections for the probability of success, i.e., adjusting for the probability of successfully advancing through clinical trials and regulatory approval

According to the rNPV method used in this valuation, all the revenues and expenses in the model are multiplied by the probability of success; for instance, the SKNY-1(Nicotine Dependence) R&D expenses until Phase I are to be multiplied by the probability of success of the SKNY-1(Nicotine Dependence) IND (90%). Another example, Royalties revenue from the SKNY-1(Nicotine Dependence) must be multiplied by the product of the probability of success of IND ,Phase I, Phase II, Phase III and NDA (90.00% * 47.70% * 26.80% * 53.10% * 86.70% = 5.71%).

From the Pre-Tax Income, taxes at a rate of 26.5% (Company tax rate) were deducted. The net income resulting was then discounted at a rate of 30% (see in appendix) and a terminal value rate of 3%.

Based on the above analysis, Moore determined that SKNY’s enterprise value is $30.5 million.

Valuation of MIRA Through Income Approach Using rNPV Analysis

As mentioned above, MIRA’s valuation was performed under the income approach, using the Risk-Adjusted Net Present Value, or the rNPV Analysis method which is able to capture the risks inherent in biotech drug development. rNPV Analysis provides a more accurate asset valuation than basic DCF Analysis as it enables conducting pharma and biotech valuation based on the stage (preclinical, Phase 1-3) of development of assets. As mentioned in MIRA’s description, MIRA is currently in the process of developing two indications:

	●	Ketamir-2 – A ketamine analog under investigation for the potential to treat Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (“DNP”); and

	●	Mira-55 – a THC analogue under investigation for treating patients suffering from Mild Cognitive Impairment (“MCI”)

Moore valued MIRA under the assumption that these are its only two projects, therefore Moore accounted for expected income and expenses related to these indications alone and did not take into consideration developments that MIRA might be performing in the future.

Another assumption made for the sake of the valuation is that MIRA will develop the two indications on its own until the successful termination of the Phase II clinical trials, and following that, will seek for a business agreement with a large pharma company that will perform the Phase III clinical trials (on its own account) and after the successful conclusion of the trials will continue and market the finished products. MIRA will be entitled to an upfront payment at the end of Phase II and royalties from the third-party revenues. The detailed analysis of the DCF Analysis method can be reviewed in the valuation reports attached as Annex C to this proxy statement which is incorporated herein by reference.

Summary of Analysis

MIRA’s valuation was performed under the income approach, using the Risk-Adjusted Net Present Value (rNPV) method. As determined by Moore, success rates of clinical trials differ according to the area of disease and according to the phase. The probability of success of Phase I is 52% and those of Phase II and Phase III are 28.9% and 57.8% respectively. For MIRA’s indications development, Moore used the Neurology success rateThe success rate in IND applications is around 90%.

According to the rNPV method used in this valuation, all the revenues and expenses in the model are multiplied by the probability of success, for instance, the Ketamir-2 R&D expenses until Phase II are to be multiplied by the probability of success of the Ketamir-2 Phase I (47.70%). Another example, Royalties revenue from the Mira-55 must be multiplied by the product of the probability of success of IND, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III and NDA (90.0% * 47.7% * 28.9% * 53.1% * 86.7% = 5.71%).

From the Pre-Tax Income, taxes at a rate of 26.5% (US, Florida company tax rate) were deducted. The net income resulting was then discounted at a rate of 30% (see in appendix) and a terminal value rate of 3%.

Based on the above analysis, Moore determined that MIRA’s enterprise value is approximately $30 million.

Determination of Fairness of Exchange Ratio

In order to examine the fairness of the Exchange Ratio proposed in the Merger, Moore calculated the relative values of both companies, and then calculated each party’s relative part from the combined company (which was assumed to be at an aggregate value of MIRA and SKNY). Moore concluded that the Exchange Ratio is fair, from a financial point of view.

Background of Moore

The compensation paid to Moore for the valuation report and fairness opinion was $15,000. The study was performed by Tzach Kasuto, M.Sc. Mr. Kasuto is a partner at Moore. He has approximately 20 years of experience in consulting and management, including extensive experience in business, strategic and economic consulting. Mr. Kasuto holds a bachelor’s degree in economics and an MBA from Tel Aviv University. His areas of expertise include: company valuation, fairness opinions, common share valuations, purchase price allocations, employee stock option valuation, expert opinions, feasibility studies, and pricing analysis. In the last two years, there has been no relationship or understanding between Moore or its affiliates and SKNY or its affiliates, nor was any compensation paid or payable to Moore, other than in connection with the fairness opinion and valuation reports.

The foregoing summary of certain material financial analyses does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses or data presented by Moore. The preparation of a valuation report and fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Moore believes that the foregoing summary and its analyses, together with reviewing the annexed valuation report and fairness opinion in detail, must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of the foregoing summary and these analyses, without considering all of its analyses as a whole, could create an incomplete view of the processes underlying the analyses and its opinion.

The order of analyses described does not represent the relative importance or weight given to those analyses by Moore. In arriving at its opinion, Moore did not attribute any particular weight to any analyses or factors considered by it and did not form an opinion as to whether any individual analysis or factor (positive or negative), considered in isolation, supported or failed to support its opinion. Rather, Moore considered the totality of the factors and analyses performed in determining its opinion. Analyses based upon forecasts of future results are inherently uncertain, as they are subject to numerous factors or events beyond the control of the parties and their advisors. Accordingly, forecasts and analyses used or made by Moore are not necessarily indicative of actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by those analyses. Moreover, Moore’s analyses are not and do not purport to be appraisals or otherwise reflective of the prices at which businesses actually could be acquired or sold. The analyses necessarily involve complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operational characteristics of the companies involved and other factors that could affect the companies compared to the Companies.

Interests of the MIRA Directors, Executive Officers and Affiliate Shareholders in the Merger

In considering the recommendation of the MIRA Board with respect to the approval of the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the issuance of shares of MIRA Common Stock as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and the other matters to be acted upon by the MIRA stockholders at the MIRA Annual Meeting, the MIRA stockholders should be aware that certain current and former members of the MIRA Board, current and former executive officers of MIRA, and current holders shares of MIRA have interests in the Merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of the MIRA stockholders.

The MIRA Board was aware of these potential conflicts of interest and considered them, among other matters, in reaching their respective decisions to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and to recommend, as applicable, that MIRA’s stockholders approve the proposals to be presented to MIRA’s stockholders for consideration at the MIRA Annual Meeting as contemplated by this proxy statement.

Ownership Interests

As of June 12, 2025, MIRA’s directors and executive officers (including affiliates) beneficially owned, in the aggregate approximately 23.6% of the outstanding shares of MIRA. Approval of Proposals Nos. 1 and 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast virtually or by proxy at the MIRA Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Ownership of SKNY

Several beneficial owners of SKNY are also related parties of MIRA. For example, MIRA’s CEO, Erez Aminov, and owner of 19.23% of MIRA also holds a beneficial ownership interest of 3,000,000 shares, or 13.6% of SKNY, and MIRA’s director Dr. Denil Shekhat holds a beneficial ownership interest of under 1.0% of SKNY as well as serving as the trustee of the 2023 YEA Irrevocable Trust, which holds 2,739,000 shares of SKNY. Furthermore, shares of MIRA held by several trusts or individuals, also own shares of SKNY. Specifically, (i) Bay Shore Trust holds 2,540,270 shares of MIRA, 1,000,000 shares of MIRA issuable pursuant to warrants held by the Bay Shore Trust that are immediately exercisable and 7,128,532 shares, or 32.3% of SKNY, and (ii) the Celeste J Williams Lifetime QTIP Trust holds of 779,047 shares of MIRA and 576,150, or 2.6% shares of SKNY.

MIRALOGX LLC

Each of MIRA and SKNY license their respective intellectual property from MIRALOGX LLC. Such license agreements call for cash royalty payments to MIRALOGIX that begin upon the first revenue realized from the licensed products and that continue thereafter regardless of whether further revenues are received from such licensed products.

Merger-Related Compensation of Executive Officers

In connection with the approval of the Merger, the Board previously adopted an Executive Compensation Plan that provides for certain performance-based compensation arrangements for executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer. These arrangements are tied to the successful completion and overall value of the Merger.

Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Shares Held by MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Upon the closing of the Merger, it is expected that upon acquiring SKNY, MIRA will become the beneficial owner of approximately 6.67% of Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:TELO), or Telomir. MIRA and Telomir have the same executive officers and share a majority of the members of their respective board of directors. Furthermore, the Bay Shore Trust owns 5,406,431 shares of Telomir as well as the percentage holdings in each of MIRA and SKNY as are described above.

Structure

Under the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA formed in connection with the Merger, will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA. Following the Merger, MIRA expects to continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “MIRA.”

Executive Officers of the Combined Company Following the Merger

Immediately following the Merger, the executive management team of the combined company is expected to remain the same as prior to the Merger, and be comprised of the following individuals with such additional officers as may be added by the combined company:

Name		Position with MIRA

Erez Aminov		Chief Executive Officer

Alan Weichselbaum		Chief Financial Officer

Directors of the Combined Company Following the Merger

Following the Merger, the combined company is expected to retain four of the current directors of MIRA as were in office prior to the Merger, comprised of Matthew Pratt Whalen, CPA; Erez Aminov; Edward MacPherson and Dr. Matthew Paul Del Giudice, and for the fifth director, Dr. Denil Nanji Shekhat, will be replaced by Kelly Stackpole, the current CEO of SKNY, with each until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or their earlier death, resignation or removal. The aforementioned board of directors will maintain its audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, in accordance with the Nasdaq rules.

Merger Consideration and Exchange Ratio

For a discussion of the merger consideration and the Exchange Ratio, please see the section titled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration and Exchange Ratio.”

Accounting Treatment of Merger

MIRA will account for the transaction as an asset purchase under the guidance provided in ASC 805-10-55-5 through ASC 805-10-55-9. MIRA concluded that under the applicable rules, the Merger meets the criteria for an asset acquisition rather than a business combination. Neither MIRA nor SKNY has obtained a legal or tax opinion confirming that the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger

This summary is based upon current provisions of the Code, existing Treasury regulations, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the IRS, all in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or change. Any such change or differing interpretation, which may be retroactive, could alter the tax consequences to SKNY stockholders as described in this summary.

This discussion applies only to SKNY stockholders who hold their SKNY Capital Stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, and does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a SKNY stockholder. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to SKNY stockholders that are subject to particular U.S. or non-U.S. tax rules, including, without limitation to SKNY stockholders that are:

	●	certain expatriates or former citizens or long-term residents of the United States.

SKNY stockholders subject to particular U.S. or non-U.S. tax rules that are described in this paragraph are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the consequences to them of the Merger.

If an entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds SKNY Capital Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend upon the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. If you are a partnership or a partner of a partnership holding SKNY Capital Stock or any other person not addressed by this discussion, you should consult your tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Merger.

In addition, the following discussion does not address: (a) the tax consequences of transactions effectuated before, after or at the same time as the Merger, whether or not they are in connection with the Merger, including, without limitation, transactions in which shares of SKNY Capital Stock are acquired or disposed of other than in exchange for shares of MIRA Common Stock in the Merger; (b) the tax consequences to holders of options or warrants issued by SKNY which are assumed in connection with the Merger; (c) the tax consequences of the ownership of shares of MIRA Common Stock following the Merger; (d) any U.S. federal non-income tax consequences of the Merger, including estate, gift or other tax consequences; (e) any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences of the Merger; or (f) the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income.

Definition of “U.S. Holder”

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of SKNY Capital Stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

	●	an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
	●	a corporation or any other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;
	●	a trust if either (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) are authorized or have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust, or (ii) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996 and has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or
	●	an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source.

Treatment of U.S. Holders in the Merger

If the Merger qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, SKNY stockholders will not recognize gain or loss upon the exchange of their SKNY Capital Stock for MIRA Common Stock. SKNY stockholders will obtain a basis in the MIRA Common Stock they receive in the Merger equal to their basis in the SKNY Capital Stock exchanged therefor. The holding period of the shares of MIRA Common Stock received by an SKNY stockholder in the Merger will include the holding period of the shares of SKNY Capital Stock surrendered in exchange therefor (collectively, the “Intended Tax Treatment”).

If the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, then each U.S. holder will be treated as exchanging its SKNY Capital Stock in a fully taxable transaction in exchange for MIRA Common Stock. U.S. holders of SKNY Capital Stock generally will recognize capital gain or loss in such exchange equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the fair market value of the MIRA Common Stock received in the Merger and (ii) such holder’s tax basis in the SKNY Capital Stock surrendered in the Merger. The aggregate tax basis of a U.S. holder in the MIRA Common Stock received in the Merger will equal its fair market value at the Effective Time, and the holding period of MIRA Common Stock received in the Merger will begin on the day after the Effective Time of the Merger.

For purposes of the above discussion of the bases and holding periods for shares of SKNY Capital Stock acquired by SKNY stockholders at different times for different prices, such SKNY stockholders must calculate their gains and losses and holding periods separately for each identifiable block of such SKNY Capital Stock exchanged in the Merger.

Information Reporting

Each U.S. holder who receives shares of MIRA Common Stock in the Merger is required to retain permanent records pertaining to the Merger, and make such records available to any authorized IRS officers and employees.

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement and is incorporated by reference. The Merger Agreement has been attached to this proxy statement to provide you with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about MIRA, SKNY or Merger Sub. The following description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement. You should refer to the full text of the Merger Agreement for details of the Merger and the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.

Parties to the Merger

The Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 16, 2025 (“Merger Agreement”), is entered into by and among MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Florida corporation, MIRAPHARM Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA (“Merger Sub”), and SKNY. Merger Sub will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).

Form of the Merger

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIRA. In the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding SKNY Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall be exchanged for and automatically converted into that certain number of fully paid and nonassessable MIRA Common Shares as calculated in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Ratio. It is anticipated that the initial Exchange Ratio is estimated to result in SKNY shareholders holding 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of MIRA Common Shares.

Merger Consideration and Exchange Ratio.

At the Effective Time, each outstanding share of SKNY Common Stock, will be converted into the right to receive such number of shares of common stock of MIRA Common Stock as is calculated in to the Exchange Ratio . The Exchange Ratio is calculated using the relative company valuations of each of MIRA and SKNY where the MIRA share value is calculated on an as-issued basis and the SKNY share value is calculated on a fully diluted basis to include all issued SKNY options and warrants. After giving effect to the Closing, the SKNY holders will hold not more than 50% of the shares of the combined company. It is expected that shareholders of SKNY will receive one share of MIRA Common Stock for each share of SKNY Common Stock held (the “Merger Consideration”). The MIRA Common Stock issued as the consideration will not be registered for trading under the Securities Act.

Absence of Contingent Consideration

There are no contingent value rights, earnouts, or milestone payments associated with the merger consideration

Exchange Procedures

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, prior to or at the Closing, MIRA shall designate its transfer agent, or a depository, bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to MIRA to act as the exchange agent in connection with the Merger, or the Exchange Agent, and enter into an exchange agreement, in a form reasonably acceptable to MIRA, for the payment of the Merger Consideration. Prior to or substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, MIRA shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of SKNY Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement through the Exchange Agent, the full number of MIRA Common Stock, which shall be in uncertificated bookentry form, issuable as Merger Consideration.

In addition, a warrant issued by SKNY to Bay Shore Trust (the “Warrant”) will be converted such that the shares of SKNY Common Stock exercisable thereunder shall be converted into shares of MIRA Common Stock pursuant to the Exchange Ratio.

DESCRIPTION OF SKNY’S BUSINESS

Overview

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“SKNY”) is a preclinical-stage company developing SKNY-1, a novel oral therapeutic designed to modulate cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2, as well as selectively inhibit monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), an enzyme involved in dopamine metabolism and addiction regulation. SKNY-1 is being developed for two lead indications: weight loss and nicotine dependence. SKNY holds exclusive rights to SKNY-1 in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Despite existing treatments in both therapeutic areas, SKNY-1 is believed to offer the potential for improved efficacy with a favorable safety profile, making it a promising candidate for both the weight loss and nicotine dependence markets.

Obesity and smoking share pharmacological and physiological connections that intertwine through neurotransmitter systems, metabolic pathways, and behavioral mechanisms. These links influence how each condition affects the other, smoking can suppress weight gain, while quitting often swaps nicotine craving for food craving, as both hit dopamine pathways. (Source: Cell Press, Neuron Review)

SKNY’s research indicates that SKNY-1 engages multiple targets involved in appetite regulation and reward-driven behaviors, including cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1), cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2), and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B). CB1 is known to play a central role in modulating cravings for high-fat and high-sugar foods by influencing dopamine and appetite pathways. CB2, while not a direct driver of appetite, is associated with modulating stress and inflammation, which may indirectly contribute to craving-related behaviors. MAO-B regulates dopamine and trace amine levels, and its inhibition may help modulate the neurochemical environment associated with compulsive or reward-based eating.

Together, CB1, CB2, and MAO-B are part of interconnected systems—the endocannabinoid system and monoamine metabolism—that influence appetite, satiety, and behavior. These systems operate both centrally and peripherally, with potential implications for addressing conditions such as obesity and nicotine dependence.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s (“DEA”) scientific review of SKNY-1 concluded that it would not be considered a controlled substance or listed chemical under the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”) and its governing regulations. This regulatory distinction significantly enhances SKNY-1’s commercial and clinical viability, removing potential barriers associated with controlled substances and positioning the compound for streamlined clinical development and commercialization.

SKNY was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 2024.

Mechanism of Action of SKNY-1

The Endocannabinoid System, consisting of CB1 and CB2

The human body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex network of receptors found throughout the body, including the brain, organs, connective tissues, glands, and immune cells. The primary function of the ECS is to maintain bodily homeostasis—biological harmony in response to environmental changes. The ECS comprises mainly two types of receptors: CB1 and CB2.

CB1 receptors, concentrated in brain regions such as the hypothalamus, nucleus accumbens, and prefrontal cortex, as well as in peripheral tissues like the gut and adipose tissue, play a key role in appetite regulation. The activation of the CB1 receptors by endocannabinoids (anandamide, 2-AG) or retrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) boosts dopamine in reward circuits and stimulates hunger—even when full—by enhancing signals from NPY/AgRP neurons. This “craving” effect heightens the appeal of food, especially for high-fat, high-sugar items. CB1 activation in the gut increases ghrelin signaling via the vagus nerve, while in fat tissue, it promotes storage and reinforces overeating. THC increases food intake, while CB1 blockers reduce appetite and weight, however central nervous system side effects limit their use. CB1 drives both energy-based and pleasure-driven eating.

CB2 receptors are sparse in a healthy brain but increase in microglia and certain neurons during periods of stress or inflammation. They are more prevalent in peripheral tissues like the gut, fat, and immune cells. Unlike CB1, CB2 does not directly stimulate appetite but may indirectly reduce cravings by lowering inflammation and stress—key triggers for emotional eating. In the brain, CB2 activation reduces neuroinflammation, which can overstimulate reward circuits in obesity or addiction. In the gut and adipose tissue, CB2 curbs inflammatory cytokines, supports insulin sensitivity, and may stabilize appetite signals. While CB1 says “eat more,” CB2 seems to say “regulate,” fine-tuning consumption through immune modulation. 39

MAO-B

MAO-B, found in the brain (striatum, hypothalamus, astrocytes) and periphery (adipose, liver), breaks down dopamine, phenylethylamine (“PEA”), and trace amines. By clearing dopamine—a key player in reward and satiety—high MAO-B activity may dull satisfaction, increase cravings, and promote overeating. In the hypothalamus, it may alter hunger circuits. MAO-B inhibitors (such as selegiline) boost dopamine and can reduce food intake in animals, though results vary. In humans, Parkinson disease patients on MAO-B inhibitors report appetite shifts, suggesting a craving link. Elevated MAO-B in obese fat tissue may signal oxidative stress, potentially driving emotional eating. Overall, MAO-B may sustain hunger by lowering dopamine and PEA; inhibition might curb appetite, but effects depend on context. (Source: the Journal of Frontiers in Pharmacology)

Interplay: CB1, CB2, and MAO-B

Both CB1 and MAO-B increase the amount of dopamine required by the body through different mechanisms: CB1 increases its release in reward circuits by increasing dopamine cravings, while MAO-B degrades existing dopamine, leaving the body demanding more. In obesity, high CB1 and MAO-B activity can trap individuals in a cycle of dopamine spikes (from food) and crashes, fueling cravings. However, CB2 may counteract this cycle of increased dopamine demand by reducing neuroinflammation that sensitizes reward pathways. Chronic stress and obesity-related inflammation, whether in the brain, gut, or adipose tissue, further intensify cravings. CB2 helps by calming immune cells like microglia and macrophages, while CB1 may worsen stress signaling. In the gut, CB1 promotes hunger via ghrelin and vagal signals; CB2 reduces the inflammatory exaggeration of these cues. MAO-B in adipose tissue or liver may influence energy signals back to the brain. In obesity, CB1-driven hedonic eating dominates. High MAO-B may blunt dopamine’s satiety signal, while low CB2 allows inflammation to amplify stress-eating. CB1 drives hunger and fat storage; MAO-B weakens satiety by clearing dopamine; CB2 may stabilize this system via anti-inflammatory effects. Together, these pathways form a feedback loop that reinforces overeating, especially under stress or inflammation.

Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) as a Solution

In recent years, the cannabis plant has emerged as a surprising ally in the battle against weight gain, with certain strains showing promise for weight management. Among these, Tetrahydrocannabivarin (“THCV”), a compound found in cannabis has been gaining attention as “nature’s Ozempic,” due to its potential in aiding weight loss and managing appetite

THCV, a compound found in cannabis, differs from THC in its effects on appetite and metabolism. Unlike THC, which is known to stimulate appetite, THCV has been observed to decrease appetite and increase energy metabolism in rodent models. This unique property of THCV presents an intriguing option for weight management andthe treatment of obesity and diabetes. (Source: British Journal of Pharmacology )

In lower doses, studies have proved that THCV acts as a CB1 antagonist and a CB2 partial agonist. As an antagonist, THCV blocks the action of cannabinoids at the CB1 receptor, especially in the central nervous system. This action is crucial because CB1 receptors are widely implicated in appetite regulation and feeding behavior. By blocking CB1 receptors, THCV can potentially reduce hunger and prevent overeating. In higher doses, it may start to activate CB1 receptors, albeit less intensely than THC. This dual action makes THCV an interesting subject for research in appetite control and weight management. In addition, THCV has the potential to block MAO-B’s dopamine clearing mechanism, thus counteracting the mechanism that increases the body’s demand for dopamine.

Similar to its effect on overeating, SKNY-1 may have a similar effect on assisting with smoking cessation. At low doses, THCV can act as a CB1 antagonist to reduce the dopamine craving for nicotine, and as a partial agonist for CB2 Furthermore, while acting as a CB2 partial agonist, THCV helps stimulate CB2 to indirectly reduce the nicotine cravings by lowering inflammation and stress.

Potential Additional Application; Insulin Resistance

Studies have found that THCV may also influence metabolism, providing a potential additional application for this compound (Source: British Journal of Pharmacology ). By interacting with the ECS, particularly through the CB2 receptors, THCV might help in regulating blood sugar levels and reducing insulin resistance. This is particularly significant for individuals with obesity or type 2 diabetes, where insulin resistance is a common issue. In addition to appetite suppression, THCV has been linked to other metabolic benefits that could be relevant to obesity. It has demonstrated potential to improve glycemic control and reduce fasting plasma glucose levels in models of type 2 diabetes, a condition frequently associated with obesity. Some studies, including studies published in the Journal of Cannabis Research, also suggest it may help with dyslipidemia, a common obesity-related issue involving abnormal lipid levels in the blood . Human research is still limited but promising. A recent clinical trial involving obese adults found that daily administration of THCV combined with cannabidiol (“CBD”) via oral strips led to significant weight loss, reduced abdominal girth, lower systolic blood pressure, and improved cholesterol levels compared to a placebo group over 90 days. While these findings are encouraging, the study’s small sample size and the combination with CBD mean more research is needed to isolate THCV’s specific effects.

Also, this unique profile seems to be ideal to be able to treat the ensemble of factors related to smoking cessation and the associated weight gain, as the three components of the drug can work in concert to affect all the above parameters.

SKNY-1; a THCV Analog

SKNY-1 was synthetized as an analogue of THCV. THCV and SKNY-1 have similar effects, except that SKNY-1 has a five-membered ring, compared with THCV. The profile of SKNY-1 was evaluated in a Eurofin study, where it was confirmed as a potent CB2 partial agonist (IC50 at 70 nM), and less potent CB1 partial agonist (IC50 at 2.7 µM). In addition, it has inhibitory MAO-B activities, but lacking MAO-A action. The full profile is currently undergoing further evaluation. This property confers to SKNY-1 a very unique profile, enabling it to act on feeding mechanism, inflammation, reward, and smoking cessation. While this profile is reminiscent of the profile of THCV, it is different in the more potent extent of CB2 agonist properties of SKNY-1 and also its MAO-B activities, that are expected to play an important role in smoking cessation and accentuation of the anti-craving effects of the cannabinoid system.

SKNY-1 Development Plan and FDA Pathway Strategy

SKNY intends to pursue FDA approval of SKNY-1 for smoking cessation, with a secondary objective of demonstrating its ability to mitigate post-cessation weight gain—an unmet need not adequately addressed by currently approved therapies. The development program will include both preclinical and clinical stages, leading to an Investigational New Drug (IND) application submission.

Preclinical Development

The preclinical program will focus on:

	●	Pharmacology and receptor-binding studies confirming modulation of CB1, CB2, and MAO-B pathways;
	●	In vivo efficacy models for nicotine dependence and metabolic regulation;
	●	Toxicology and safety pharmacology studies, including GLP-compliant rodent and non-rodent studies; and ● ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) profiling.

These studies will provide the foundation for a robust IND submission, enabling the initiation of human trials under U.S. FDA oversight.

Phase 1 – Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics in Healthy Volunteers

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial will be conducted in healthy adult volunteers. The primary objective will be to assess the safety and tolerability of SKNY-1. Secondary objectives will include pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). Dosing will begin at subtherapeutic levels and be escalated under careful monitoring. Assessments will include vital signs, ECGs, clinical labs, and adverse event reporting.

Phase 2 – Proof-of-Concept Trial in Smokers with Focus on Weight Stability

Following a successful Phase 1, a Phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled trial will be initiated in treatment-seeking adult smokers. The primary endpoint will be continuous smoking abstinence, typically measured over weeks 9–12 post-quit date in line with FDA guidance. Secondary endpoints will include:

	●	7-day point prevalence abstinence
	●	Time to relapse
	●	Changes in body weight from baseline to the end of study
	●	Patient-reported craving and withdrawal scores

Subjects will be monitored using standardized tools such as the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) and exhaled carbon monoxide (CO) levels to confirm abstinence. Weight will be tracked using digital scales and analyzed for statistical differences between groups.

The trial will be designed to demonstrate that SKNY-1 not only helps subjects achieve smoking cessation but also avoids the common side effect of post-cessation weight gain, a leading cause of relapse among smokers.

Strategic Rationale

This dual-pathway strategy allows SKNY to target a well-established FDA approval path for smoking cessation (e.g., similar to Chantix or Nicorette), while also differentiating SKNY-1 with a unique weight-stabilizing mechanism. If successful, SKNY-1 may represent a first-in-class therapeutic that addresses both physiological and behavioral drivers of relapse.

Our Market Opportunity and Market Advantage

The two leading causes of preventable death in the United States are smoking and obesity. Obesity is a significant health concern, affecting over 70 million people in the United States and accounting for about 40.3% of the adult population, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) for the years 2021–2023. This widespread health issue not only undermines the quality of life and daily functioning of individuals but also imposes a substantial economic burden, with costs in the United States. amounting to over $100 billion annually. Additionally, the productivity loss related to obesity is estimated at an annual cost of $6.4 billion. If approved by the FDA, SKNY-1 may potentially provide weight-loss benefits for patients.

Smoking is a significant U.S. health concern, with approximately 28.8 million smokers in the United States, accounting for about 11.6% of the adult population, according to data from the (CDC) as of 2022. This widespread health issue imposes a substantial economic burden, with costs in the U.S. amounting to over $240 billion annually, per the CDC. Productivity losses due to premature death and exposure to secondhand smoke are estimated at over $185 billion annually. Current medications, such as Varenicline and Bupropion, have serious side effects that may cause discontinuation. Varenicline side effects include suicidal ideation, nausea, sleep disturbance, unusual or strange dreams, constipation, gas, and vomiting. Bupropion is not suitable for patients with seizure disorders or a predisposition to seizures. Side effects include dry mouth, insomnia, and changes in mood or behavior (per the British Medical Journal).

Weight Loss Market Overview

As of March 26, 2025, current market estimates for weight loss drugs vary depending on the forecast period and source, but they reflect significant growth driven by surging demand and expanding applications. Based on available data, Bloomberg Intelligence estimates global weight loss drug sales at approximately $24.6 billion for 2025, reflecting a sharp increase from $14.8 billion in 2024 and $6.3 billion in 2023. This aligns with the rapid uptake of GLP-1 agonists like Wegovy and Zepbound. IQVIA’s 2024 outlook projected global spending on obesity medications could reach $131 billion by 2028, implying an annualized growth rate of about 27% from the $24 billion recorded in 2023. This suggests a 2025 figure potentially exceeding $40 billion if shortages ease and manufacturing capacity increases, though supply constraints remain a limiting factor. Analysts from BMO Capital Markets and Reuters cite forecasts of $150 billion annually by the early 2030s (around 2033), up from earlier estimates of $100 billion, driven by increasing supply, new entrants, and broader insurance coverage. Morgan Stanley offers a more conservative estimate of $77 billion by 2030, while Morningstar and Pitchbook project a potential $200 billion market by 2031, factoring in 16 new drugs expected by 2029. The U.S. market alone hit $11.9 billion in 2023 according to Marketdata LLC, doubling from $5.1 billion in 2022, suggesting that 2024 and 2025 estimates could climb higher as shortages resolve (e.g., the FDA removed Tirzepatide from its shortage list in December 2024). Many of the large pharmaceutical companies have show significant revenue increases in their weight loss and diabetes prescription drug sales.

The full text of the SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement is attached as Annex E to this proxy statement.

Competitors for Weight Loss Products

There are several potential pharmaceutical companies that we deem as competitors actively developing new weight loss drugs. These companies are working on innovative therapies, primarily focusing on GLP-1 agonists and other mechanisms to address obesity, a field experiencing explosive growth. These companies may have products that are more advanced in their development and FDA-process than SKNY-1 or have more resources than SKNY. These companies include:

	●	Eli Lilly & Company (NYSE:LLY) – LLY has developed Zepbound (Tirzepatide), which was approved by the FDA in 2023. Zepbound is a dual GLP-1/GIP agonist, achieving up to 20% weight loss in trials. LLY offers vials measuring 2.5 mg for $349 per month, 5 mg for $499 per month, 7.5 mg for $599 per month, and 10 mg for $699/month. Pen pricing is 2.5 mg/0.5 mL subcutaneous solutions for around $374 for 2 mL. Additionally, LLY has also developed orforglipron, an oral GLP-1 agonist in Phase 3 trials, showing a 13.5% weight loss in early data, potentially a game-changer due to its non-injectable form, and retatrutide, a triple agonist (GLP-1/GIP/glucagon) in Phase 3, with trials indicating up to a 24% weight loss, one of the highest efficacy rates seen so far.

	●	Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE: NVO) – NVO is developing Wegovy (semaglutide), an FDA-approved GLP-1 agonist with an average weight loss of 15%. This medication for chronic weight management has a list price of approximately $1,350 for a 28-day supply, totaling over $16,000 annually without insurance or manufacturer discounts.

	●	Sanofi (NASDAQ: SNY) – SNY is developing rimonabant (Acomplia), the first CB1 receptor antagonist approved in Europe in 2006 for obesity. It was withdrawn in 2008 due to depression and suicide risks. Since then, Sanofi has not publicly pursued a new CB1 antagonists, shifting focus to other metabolic therapies like diabetes drugs.

	●	Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) – PFE is developing otenabant (CP-945,598), a CB1 antagonists and selective inverse agonist for obesity and metabolic disorders. It reached Phase 3 trials but was discontinued in 2008 due to psychiatric risks similar to those of rimonabant and a strategic shift away from this class after rimonabant’s withdrawal.

Despite the foregoing, SKNY believes that its SKNY-1 presents the unique property of acting as a CB1 blocker, CB2 activator and a selective MAO-B inhibitor without side effects.

Smoking Cessation Market Overview

The smoking cessation market in 2025 is a dynamic and growing sector driven by increasing global awareness of the health risks associated with smoking, government initiatives to reduce tobacco use, and advancements in cessation products and therapies. The global smoking cessation and nicotine de-addiction market is experiencing robust growth. Estimates suggest the market was valued at approximately $25.5 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 10-12% from 2025 to the early 2030s. By 2030-2034, the market size could reach between $53.87 billion and $71.5 billion, depending on various forecasts. This growth is fueled by rising demand for nicotine replacement therapies (NRT), e-cigarettes, and innovative cessation aids, alongside increasing quitting attempts worldwide. (Source: http://www.researchandmarketingreview.com and http://www.gminsights.com)

Key Drivers

Growing recognition of smoking-related diseases—such as lung cancer, cardiovascular issues, and respiratory disorders—continues to push individuals toward cessation. Public health campaigns by organizations like the World Health Organization (“WHO”) and local governments amplify this trend (Source: http://www.tocaccofreekids.org). Policies such as higher tobacco taxes, smoking bans in public spaces, and subsidized cessation programs are significant catalysts. For instance, the UK aims for a smoke-free England by 2030, while countries like Japan have raised tobacco costs to encourage quitting. Innovations like smart nicotine patches, digital cessation apps, and personalized quit programs enhance effectiveness and accessibility. E-cigarettes and heatnot-burn products also offer alternatives that appeal to smokers transitioning away from traditional cigarettes. In the U.S. alone, millions of smokers attempt to quit annually, with similar trends globally, increasing demand for cessation products and services.

Product Segments

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT): Dominates the market with products like gums, patches, lozenges, inhalers, and sprays. NRT is favored for its proven efficacy in reducing withdrawal symptoms and is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 9-15% through 2034 (Source: https://www.factmr.com) .

E-Cigarettes: A rapidly expanding segment due to their popularity as a less harmful alternative to traditional smoking. This category is projected to grow at a CAGR of up to 19% according to some forecasts, driven by product innovation and consumer acceptance (Source: https://www.precedenceresearch.com).

Prescription Medications: Drugs like varenicline (Chantix) and bupropion (Zyban) remain key options, though generics may temper revenue growth for branded versions.

Digital and Behavioral Therapies: Mobile apps and counseling services are gaining traction, offering tailored support and contributing to market diversification.

Weight Gain Associated With Smoking Cessation

Weight gain is a common concern for people who quit smoking, and clinical studies have explored this phenomenon in detail. The market for addressing weight gain during smoking cessation is closely tied to the broader smoking cessation and nicotine de-addiction market, which includes products and drugs aimed at helping individuals quit smoking while managing associated side effects like weight gain (Source https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). Below is an overview based on available data and trends:

Market Size Estimates:

The global smoking cessation and nicotine de-addiction market was valued at approximately $25.5 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12% from 2025 to 2034, reaching around $71.5 billion by 2031 (based on estimates from sources like Grand View Research and iHealthcareAnalyst). While this encompasses all cessation aids, a portion of this market addresses weight gain management, though specific figures for this subset are not isolated in most reports. The nicotine replacement therapy (“NRT”) market, a significant segment of smoking cessation, was valued at $2.94 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $4.27 billion by 2032, with a CAGR of 4.8% (Fortune Business Insights). Drugs and therapies within this segment often influence weight gain outcomes (Source: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov and https://www.gminsights.com).

Trends Driving the Market

Increased recognition of smoking-related health issues (e.g., lung cancer, cardiovascular disease) and the associated challenge of weight gain post-cessation are driving demand for integrated solutions. Weight gain, averaging 4-5 kg in the first year after quitting, is a well-documented barrier to cessation success, prompting interest in dual-purpose interventions. Governmental and international initiatives (e.g., WHO’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control) and awareness campaigns are boosting the adoption of cessation aids, including those that mitigate weight gain. For instance, the prevalence of smoking remains high globally (1.3 billion tobacco users per WHO 2023 data), amplifying the need for effective cessation strategies. There is a trend toward combining smoking cessation with weight control strategies, as many quitters cite weight gain as a relapse trigger. This has spurred research into drugs that address both nicotine withdrawal and metabolic changes. Clinical studies and product launches by key players (e.g., Achieve Life Sciences’ cytisinicline trial in May 2024) are expanding options, though most focus on cessation efficacy rather than weight gain alone. However, the side effect of weight gain is increasingly considered in trial designs.

Market Challenges

Some cessation drugs have side effects that complicate weight management, potentially limiting their appeal. While short-term weight gain prevention is achievable, sustaining these effects beyond 12 months remains a challenge, influencing market growth dynamics.

Competitors for Smoking Cessation Products

There are several potential pharmaceutical companies that we deem as competitors actively developing smoking cessation products.. These companies may have products that are more advanced in their development and FDA-process than SKNY-1 or have more resources than SKNY. These companies include:

	-	Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) - PFE is developing Chantix (Varenicline), a prescription medication used to help adults quit smoking. It works by binding to nicotine receptors in the brain, reducing both cravings and withdrawal symptoms while also blocking the pleasurable effects of nicotine if a person smokes.

	-	GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE: GSK) – GSK is developing Zyban (Bupropion), a prescription medication used to help people quit smoking. Bupropion, an antidepressant also marketed as Zyban for smoking cessation, reduces weight gain by approximately 1.01 kg at the end of treatment compared to placebo. It is an atypical antidepressant that works by reducing nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Zyban influences dopamine and norepinephrine, neurotransmitters involved in addiction and mood regulation.

Regulation

The FDA and comparable regulatory authorities in state and local jurisdictions impose substantial and burdensome requirements upon companies involved in the clinical development, manufacture, marketing, and distribution of drugs. These agencies and other federal, state, and local entities regulate, among other things, the research and development, testing, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping, approval, advertising and promotion, distribution, post-approval monitoring and reporting, sampling and export and import of our drug candidates.

U.S. Government Regulation

In the United States, the FDA regulates drugs under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and its implementing regulations. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals and the subsequent compliance with appropriate federal, state, local and foreign statutes and regulations requires the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources. Failure to comply with the applicable U.S. requirements at any time during the product development process, approval process or after approval, may subject an applicant to a variety of administrative or judicial sanctions, such as the FDA’s refusal to approve pending New Drug Applications (or NDAs), withdrawal of an approval, imposition of a clinical hold, issuance of warning letters, product recalls, product seizures, total or partial suspension of production or distribution, injunctions, fines, refusals of government contracts, restitution, disgorgement or civil or criminal penalties. The process required by the FDA before a drug may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:

	●	completion of pre-clinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies in compliance with the FDA’s good laboratory practice (“GLP”) regulations;

	●	submission to the FDA of an IND application, which must become effective before human clinical trials may begin;

	●	approval by an independent Institutional Review Board (“IRB”), at each clinical site before each trial may be initiated;

	●	performance of adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials in accordance with good clinical practices (“GCP”) requirements to establish the safety and efficacy of the proposed drug product for each indication;

	●	demonstration that the Application Programming Interface and finished product are manufactured under well controlled (eventually cGMP) conditions and meet all applicable standards of identity, strength, quality, and purity;

	●	submission to the FDA of an NDA;

	●	satisfactory completion of an FDA advisory committee review, if applicable;

	●	satisfactory completion of an FDA inspection of the manufacturing facility or facilities at which the product is produced to assess compliance with cGMP requirements and to assure that the facilities, methods, and controls are adequate to preserve the drug’s identity, strength, quality, and purity;

	●	FDA review and approval of the NDA, including consideration of the views of any FDA advisory committee, prior to commercial marketing or sale of the drug in the United States; and

	●	compliance with any post-approval requirements, including the potential requirement to implement a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (“REMS”) or to conduct a post-approval study.

Pre-clinical studies

Before testing any drug or biological product candidate in humans, the product candidate must undergo rigorous pre-clinical testing. The pre-clinical developmental stage generally involves laboratory evaluations of drug chemistry, formulation, and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity in animals, to assess the potential for adverse events (“AEs”) and, in some cases, to establish a rationale for therapeutic use. The conduct of pre-clinical studies is subject to federal regulations and requirements, including GLP regulations for safety/toxicology studies. An IND sponsor must submit the results of the pre-clinical studies, together with manufacturing information, analytical data, any available clinical data or literature and a proposed clinical protocol, to the FDA as part of the IND.

An IND is a request for authorization from the FDA to ship an investigation product and then administer it to humans and must be allowed to proceed by the FDA before human clinical trials may begin. Some long-term pre-clinical testing, such as animal tests of reproductive AEs and carcinogenicity, may continue after the IND is submitted. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA, unless the FDA raises concerns or questions before that time related to one or more proposed clinical trials and places the trial on clinical hold. In such a case, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns before the clinical trial can begin. As a result, submission of an IND may not result in the FDA allowing clinical trials to commence.

Clinical trials

The clinical stage of development involves the administration of the investigational product to healthy volunteers or patients under the supervision of qualified investigators, generally physicians not employed by, or under control of, the trial sponsor, in accordance with GCPs, which include the requirement that all research patients provide their informed consent for their participation in any clinical trial. Clinical trials are conducted under protocols detailing, among other things, the objectives of the clinical trial, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusion criteria and the parameters to be used to monitor subject safety and assess efficacy. Each protocol, and any subsequent amendments to the protocol, must be submitted to the FDA as part of the IND. Furthermore, each clinical trial must be reviewed and approved by an IRB for each institution at which the clinical trial will be conducted to ensure that the risks to individuals participating in the clinical trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. The IRB also approves the informed consent form that must be provided to each clinical trial subject or his or her legal representative and must monitor the clinical trial until completed. There also are requirements governing the reporting of ongoing clinical trials and completed clinical trial results to public registries. Information about most clinical trials must be submitted within specific timeframes for publication on the www.clinicaltrials.gov website. Information related to the product, patient population, phase of investigation, study sites and investigators and other aspects of the clinical trial is made public as part of the registration of the clinical trial. Sponsors are also obligated to disclose the results of their clinical trials after completion. Disclosure of the results of these trials can be delayed in some cases for up to two years after the date of completion of the trial. Competitors may use this publicly available information to gain knowledge regarding the progress of development programs.

Human clinical trials are typically conducted in three sequential phases, which may overlap or be combined:

	●	Phase I clinical trials generally involve a small number of healthy volunteers or disease-affected patients who are initially exposed to a single dose and then multiple doses of the product candidate. The primary purpose of these clinical trials is to assess the metabolism, pharmacologic action, side effect tolerability and safety of the drug.

	●	Phase II clinical trials involve studies in disease-affected patients to determine the dose required to produce the desired benefits. At the same time, safety and further pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic information is collected, possible adverse effects and safety risks are identified, and a preliminary evaluation of efficacy is conducted.

●

Phase III clinical trials generally involve a larger number of patients at multiple sites and are designed to provide the data necessary to demonstrate the effectiveness of the product for its intended use, its safety in use and to establish the overall benefit/risk relationship of the product and provide an adequate basis for product approval. These trials may include comparisons with placebo and/or other comparator treatments. The duration of treatment is often extended to mimic the actual use of a product during marketing.

Post-approval trials, sometimes referred to as Phase IV clinical trials, may be conducted after initial marketing approval. These trials are used to gain additional experience from the treatment of patients in the intended therapeutic indication, particularly for long-term safety follow up. In certain instances, the FDA may mandate the performance of Phase IV clinical trials as a condition of approval of an NDA or a Biologics License Application (“BLA”).

Progress reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at least annually to the FDA and more frequently if significant adverse events (“SAEs”) occur. The FDA or the sponsor may suspend or terminate a clinical trial at any time, or the FDA may impose other sanctions on various grounds, including a finding that the research patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk. Similarly, an IRB can refuse, suspend, or terminate approval of a clinical trial at its institution if the clinical trial is not being conducted in accordance with the IRB’s requirements or if the drug has been associated with unexpected serious harm to patients.

Concurrently with clinical trials, companies usually complete additional pre-clinical studies and must also develop additional information about the physical characteristics of the drug or biological product as well as finalize a process for manufacturing the product in commercial quantities in accordance with cGMP requirements. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing quality batches of the product candidate and, among other things, the sponsor must develop methods for testing the identity, strength, quality, potency, and purity of the final biological product. Additionally, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested, and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that the biological product candidate does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life.

Marketing Approval

Assuming successful completion of the required clinical testing, the results of the pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, together with detailed information relating to the product’s chemistry, manufacture, controls, and proposed labeling, among other things, are submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA requesting approval to market the product for one or more indications. In most cases, the submission of an NDA is subject to a substantial application user fee.

The review process typically takes twelve months from the date the NDA is submitted to the FDA. The FDA conducts a preliminary review of all NDAs within the first 60 days after submission to determine whether they are sufficiently complete to permit substantive review before accepting them for “filing.” The FDA may request additional information rather than accept an NDA for filing. In this event, the application must be resubmitted with the additional information and may be subject to an additional application user fee. The resubmitted application is also subject to review before the FDA accepts it for filing. Once the submission is accepted for filing, the FDA begins an in-depth substantive review. The FDA reviews an NDA to determine, among other things, whether the drug is safe and effective and whether the facility in which it is manufactured, processed, packaged, or held meets standards designed to assure the product’s continued safety, quality and purity. Under the current guidelines in effect in the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), the FDA has a goal to review and act on the submission within ten months from the completion of the preliminary review of a standard NDA for a new molecular entity. 50

The FDA also may require submission of a REMS plan to ensure that the benefits of the drug outweigh its risks. The REMS plan could include medication guides, physician communication plans, assessment plans, and/or elements to assure safe use, such as restricted distribution methods, patient registries, or other risk minimization tools.

The FDA may refer an application for a novel drug to an advisory committee. An advisory committee is a panel of independent experts, including clinicians and other scientific experts, that reviews, evaluates and provides a recommendation as to whether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendations of an advisory committee, but it considers such recommendations carefully when making decisions.

Before approving an NDA, the FDA typically will inspect the facility or facilities where the product is manufactured. The FDA will not approve an application unless it determines that the manufacturing processes and facilities are in compliance with cGMP requirements and adequate to assure consistent production of the product within required specifications. Additionally, before approving an NDA, the FDA may inspect one or more clinical trial sites to assure compliance with GCP requirements.

After evaluating the NDA and all related information, including the advisory committee recommendation, if any, and inspection reports regarding the manufacturing facilities and clinical trial sites, the FDA may issue an approval letter, or, in some cases, a complete response letter. A complete response letter generally contains a statement of specific conditions that must be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA and may require additional clinical trials or pre-clinical studies in order for FDA to reconsider the application. Even with submission of this additional information, the FDA ultimately may decide that the application does not satisfy the regulatory criteria for approval. If and when those conditions have been met to the FDA’s satisfaction, the FDA will typically issue an approval letter. An approval letter authorizes commercial marketing of the drug with specific prescribing information for specific indications.

Post-approval requirements

Drugs manufactured or distributed pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by the FDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, periodic reporting, product sampling and distribution, advertising and promotion and reporting of adverse experiences with the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or other labeling claims are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing annual user fee requirements for any marketed products and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications with clinical data.

Intellectual Property

SKNY hold a license in the U.S. and its territories, Mexico and Canada from MIRALOGX for the use of SKNY-1 in human applications. SKNY has filed international application no. PCT/US25/17127 under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) on February 25, 2025, titled “SYNTHETIC CANNABINOID ANALOGS, PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS, AND METHODS OF TREATING ANXIETY AND OTHER DISORDERS,” and hold patent no. 63/653,326 on 5/30/24, titled “SYNTHETIC CANNABINOID ANALOGS, PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS, AND METHODS OF TREATING BACTERIAL INFECTIONS AND VIRAL INFECTIONS,” and in due course intends to enter the national phase in the United States, among other countries. These applications, if granted and subject to payment of patent maintenance fees, would offer protection extending through at least February 25, 2045, and May 30, 2044, respectively. The patent rights for SKNY-1 outside of the United States are not included in the SKNY-1 Licensing Agreement.

Besides relying on patents, we also rely on trade secrets, proprietary know-how and continuing innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position, especially when we do not believe that patent protection is appropriate or can be obtained.

●	administering our equity compensation plans;

●	reviewing and approving, or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding, incentive compensation and equity compensation plans; and

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our compensation committee is a current or former executive officer or employee of our company. None of our executive officers serves as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our compensation committee.

Risk Oversight

One of the key functions of our board of directors is informed oversight of our risk management process. Our board of directors administers this oversight function directly through our board of directors as a whole, and through various standing committees of our board of directors that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our board of directors is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including risks associated with cybersecurity and data protection, and our audit committee has the responsibility to consider our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. Our audit committee will review legal, regulatory, and compliance matters that could have a significant impact on our financial statements. Our nominating and corporate governance committee will monitor the effectiveness of our corporate governance practices, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct. Our compensation committee will assess and monitor whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk taking. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, our entire board of directors will be regularly informed through committee reports about such risks.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our board of directors has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics applicable to all of our directors, officers (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer) and all global employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws and corporate governance rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market. Our code of business conduct and ethics is available on our website. Any amendments to the code of business conduct and ethics, or waivers of its requirements, will, if required, be disclosed on our website.

Insider Trading Policy

Our board of directors has adopted an insider trading policy filed hereto as Exhibit 19.1 to our Form 10-K/A and is incorporated herein by this reference.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines, a copy of which is available on our website.

Compensation Recovery Policy

On October 2, 2023, our Board of Directors adopted a policy (commonly known as a “clawback” policy) which provides for the recovery of erroneously awarded incentive compensation to certain of our officers in the event that we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance by us with any financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws. This policy is designed to comply with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, related rules and the listing standards of Nasdaq Stock Market or any other securities exchange on which our shares are listed in the future. The policy is administered by our Board of Directors or, if so designated by the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee. Any determinations made by the Board shall be final and binding on all affected individuals.

The individuals covered by this policy (the “Covered Officers”) are any current or former employee who is or was identified as our president, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer (or if there is no such accounting officer, the controller), any vice-president in charge of a principal business unit, division, or function (such as sales, administration, or finance), any other officer who performs a significant policy-making function, or any other person (including any executive officer of our subsidiaries or affiliates) who performs similar significant policy-making functions for us.

The policy covers our recoupment of “Incentive-Based Compensation” (as defined in the policy) received by a person after beginning service as a Covered Executive and who served as a Covered Officer at any time during the performance period for that Incentive Compensation. In the event we are required to prepare an accounting restatement, the policy requires us to recover, reasonably promptly, any excess incentive compensation (as determined by our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee) received by any Covered Officer during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which we are required to prepare such accounting restatement. The foregoing description of our Compensation Recovery Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of such policy, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

If the appointment is not ratified, the audit committee will investigate the reasons for stockholder rejection and will re-consider the appointment. Even if the selection is ratified, the audit committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such change would be in the best interests of us and our stockholders.

Representatives of Salberg are not expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. However, we will provide contact information for Salberg to any stockholders who would like to contact the firm with appropriate questions.

Audit Fees.

The aggregate fees billed by Salberg for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements, review of the financial information included in our Forms 10-Q for the respective periods and other required filings with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2024 totaled $0.05 million. There were no such fees incurred in 2023.

The above amounts include interim procedures and audit fees, as well as attendance at audit committee meetings.

Audit-Related Fees.

There were audited-related fees billed by Salberg for professional services rendered for tax compliance for the years ended December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

PROPOSAL 4. AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPANY’S 2022 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES AVAILABLE FOR ISSUANCE

Overview

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders are also being asked to approve the following amendments to the Plan:

	●	to increase the number of shares reserved under the Plan from 5,000,000 to 8,000,000 (the “Share Plan Increase”); and

	●	to allow for the repricing of options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), including reducing the exercise or grant price of an outstanding options or SAR, as determined by the Administrator with required approval by the Board, which requires shareholder consent under Nasdaq Rule 5635(c) (the “Re-Pricing Amendment”, and together with the Share Plan Increase, the “Plan Amendments”).

The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company and its stockholders by enabling the Company to attract and retain qualified individuals to perform services, to provide incentive compensation for such individuals in a form that is linked to the growth and profitability of Company and increases in stockholder value, and to provide opportunities for equity participation that align the interests of recipients with those of its stockholders. On July 22, 2025, the Board discussed and approved the Plan Amendments. The Company believes that the Share Plan Increase will provide the Company additional ability to partner with key scientific consultants and incentivize its current employees and executive officers to achieve certain developmental and financial milestones. The Company anticipates that the Re-Pricing Amendment will lower the exercise price of certain outstanding options that are “out-of-the-money” and generate additional capital through payment of the exercise price.

Below is a summary of the terms of the Plan. Please see Appendix A to this proxy statement for the complete plan, which include the proposed Plan Amendments.

Administration

The Plan is administered by our board of directors or our compensation committee, or any other committee or subcommittee or one or more of our officers to whom authority has been delegated (collectively, the “Administrator”). The Administrator has the authority to interpret the Plan and award agreements entered into with respect to the Plan; to make, change and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to make changes to, or reconcile any inconsistency in, the Plan or any award agreement covering an award; and to take any other actions needed to administer the Plan.

Eligibility

The Administrator may designate any of the following as a participant under the Plan: any officer or employee, or individuals engaged to become an officer or employee, of our company or our affiliates; and consultants of our company or our affiliates, and our directors, including our non-employee directors.

Types of Awards

The Plan permits the Administrator to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), performance shares, performance units, shares of common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), cash incentive awards, dividend equivalent units, or any other type of award permitted under the Plan. The Administrator may grant any type of award to any participant it selects, but only our employees or our subsidiaries’ employees may receive grants of incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Awards may be granted alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or (subject to the repricing prohibition described below) in substitution for any other award (or any other award granted under another plan of our company or any affiliate, including the plan of an acquired entity).

Shares Reserved Under the Plan

The Plan currently provides that 5,000,000 shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under the Plan, all of which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options. The number of shares available for issuance under our Plan will also include an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year equal to the lesser of (a) 500,000 shares; (b) 5.0% of the outstanding shares of all class of our common stock as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; or such other amount as our board of directors may determine.

The number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan will be reduced on the date of the grant of any award by the maximum number of shares, if any, with respect to which such award is granted. However, an award that may be settled solely in cash will not deplete the Plan’s share reserve at the time the award is granted. If (a) an award expires, is canceled, or terminates without issuance of shares or is settled in cash, (b) the Administrator determines that the shares granted under an award will not be issuable because the conditions for issuance will not be satisfied, (c) shares are forfeited under an award, (d) shares are issued under any award and we reacquire them pursuant to our reserved rights upon the issuance of the shares, (e) shares are tendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of an option or as a result of the net settlement of outstanding stock appreciation rights or (f) shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy federal, state or local tax withholding obligations, then those shares are added back to the reserve and may again be used for new awards under the Plan. However, shares added back to the reserve pursuant to clauses (d), (e) or (f) in the preceding sentence may not be issued pursuant to incentive stock options.

Options

The Administrator may grant stock options and determine all terms and conditions of each stock option, which include the number of stock options granted, whether a stock option is to be an incentive stock option or non-qualified stock option, and the grant date for the stock option. However, the exercise price per share of common stock may never be less than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant and the expiration date may not be later than 10 years after the date of grant. Stock options will be exercisable and vest at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as are determined by the Administrator, including with respect to the manner of payment of the exercise price of such stock options.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The Administrator may grant SARs, which represent the right of a participant to receive cash in an amount, or common stock with a fair market value, equal to the appreciation of the fair market value of a share of common stock during a specified period of time. The Plan provides that the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each SAR, including, among other things: (a) whether the SAR is granted independently of a stock option or relates to a stock option, (b) the grant price, which may never be less than the fair market value of our common stock as determined on the date of grant, (c) a term that must be no later than 10 years after the date of grant, and (d) whether the SAR will settle in cash, common stock or a combination of the two.

Performance and Stock Awards

The Administrator may grant awards of shares of common stock, restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares or performance units. Restricted stock means shares of common stock that are subject to a risk of forfeiture or restrictions on transfer, which may lapse upon the achievement or partial achievement of performance goals (as described below) or upon the completion of a period of service. An RSU grants the participant the right to receive cash or shares of common stock the value of which is equal to the fair market value of one share of common stock, to the extent performance goals are achieved or upon the completion of a period of service. Performance shares give the participant the right to receive shares of common stock to the extent performance goals are achieved. Performance units give the participant the right to receive cash or shares of common stock valued in relation to a unit that has a designated dollar value or the value of which is equal to the fair market value of one or more shares of common stock, to the extent performance goals are achieved.

The Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of the awards including (a) whether performance goals must be achieved for the participant to realize any portion of the benefit provided under the award, (b) the length of the vesting or performance period and, if different, the date that payment of the benefit will be made, (c) with respect to performance units, whether to measure the value of each unit in relation to a designated dollar value or the fair market value of one or more shares of common stock, and (d) with respect to performance shares, performance units, and RSUs, whether the awards will settle in cash, in shares of common stock (including restricted stock), or in a combination of the two.

Cash Incentive Awards

The Administrator may grant cash incentive awards. An incentive award is the right to receive a cash payment to the extent one or more performance goals are achieved. The Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of a cash incentive award, including, but not limited to, the performance goals (described below), the performance period, the potential amount payable, and the timing of payment. While the Plan permits cash incentive awards to be granted under the Plan, we may also make cash incentive awards outside of the Plan.

Performance Goals

For purposes of the Plan, the Administrator may establish objective or subjective performance goals which may apply to any performance award. Such performance goals may include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following measures with respect to our company or any one or more of our subsidiaries, affiliates, or other business units: net sales; cost of sales; gross income; gross revenue; revenue; operating income; earnings before taxes; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and exception items; income from continuing operations; net income; earnings per share; diluted earnings per share; total stockholder return; fair market value of a share of common stock; cash flow; net cash provided by operating activities; net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities; ratio of debt to debt plus equity; return on stockholder equity; return on invested capital; return on average total capital employed; return on net capital employed; return on assets; return on net assets employed before interest and taxes; operating working capital; average accounts receivable (calculated by taking the average of accounts receivable at the end of each month); average inventories (calculated by taking the average of inventories at the end of each month); economic value added; succession planning; manufacturing return on assets; manufacturing margin; and customer satisfaction. Performance goals may also relate to a participant’s individual performance. The Administrator reserves the right to adjust any performance goals or modify the manner of measuring or evaluating a performance goal.

Dividend Equivalent Units

The Administrator may grant dividend equivalent units. A dividend equivalent unit gives the participant the right to receive a payment, in cash or shares of common stock, equal to the cash dividends or other distributions that we pay with respect to a share of common stock. We determine all terms and conditions of a dividend equivalent unit award, except that dividend equivalent units may not be granted in connection with a stock option or SAR, and dividend equivalent unit awards granted in connection with another award cannot provide for payment until the date such award vests or is earned, as applicable.

Other Stock-Based Awards

The Administrator may grant to any participant shares of unrestricted stock as a replacement for other compensation to which such participant is entitled, such as in payment of director fees, in lieu of cash compensation, in exchange for cancellation of a compensation right or as a bonus.

Transferability

Awards are not transferable, including to any financial institution, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless the Administrator allows a participant to (a) designate in writing a beneficiary to exercise the award or receive payment under the award after the participant’s death, (b) transfer an award to a former spouse as required by a domestic relations order incident to a divorce, or (c) transfer an award without receiving any consideration.

Adjustments

If (a) we are involved in a merger or other transaction in which our shares of common stock are changed or exchanged; (b) we subdivide or combine shares of common stock or declare a dividend payable in shares of common stock, other securities, or other property (other than stock purchase rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights agreement); (c) we effect a cash dividend that exceeds 10% of the fair market value of a share of common stock or any other dividend or distribution in the form of cash or a repurchase of shares of common stock that our board of directors determines is special or extraordinary, or that is in connection with a recapitalization or reorganization; or (d) any other event occurs that in the Administrator’s judgment requires an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, then the Administrator will, in a manner it deems equitable, adjust any or all of (1) the number and type of shares subject to the Plan and which may, after the event, be made the subject of awards; (2) the number and type of shares of common stock subject to outstanding awards; (3) the grant, purchase, or exercise price with respect to any award; and (4) the performance goals of an award. In any such case, the Administrator may also provide for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding award in exchange for the cancellation of all or a portion of the award, subject to the terms of the Plan.

The Administrator may, in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization, authorize the issuance or assumption of awards upon terms and conditions we deem appropriate without affecting the number of shares of common stock otherwise reserved or available under the Plan.

Change of Control

Upon a change of control (as defined in the Plan), the successor or surviving corporation may agree to assume some or all outstanding awards or replace them with the same type of award with similar terms and conditions, without the consent of any participant, subject to the following requirements:

	●	Each award that is assumed must be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such change of control, to apply to the number and class of securities that would have been issuable to a participant upon the consummation of such change of control had the award been exercised, vested, or earned immediately prior to such change of control, and other appropriate adjustment to the terms and conditions of the award may be made.

	●	If the securities to which the awards relate after the change of control are not listed and traded on a national securities exchange, then (a) each participant must be provided the option to elect to receive, in lieu of the issuance of such securities, cash in an amount equal to the fair value of the securities that would have otherwise been issued, and (b) no reduction may be taken to reflect a discount for lack of marketability, minority, or any similar consideration, for purposes of determining the fair value of such securities.

	●	If a participant is terminated from employment without cause, or due to death or disability, or the participant resigns employment for good reason (as defined in any award or other agreement between the participant and our company or an affiliate) within two years following the change of control, then upon such termination, all of the participant’s awards in effect on the date of such termination will vest in full or be deemed earned in full.

If the purchaser, successor, or surviving entity does not assume the awards or issue replacement awards, then immediately prior to the change of control date, unless the Administrator otherwise determines:

	●	Each stock option or SAR then held by a participant will become immediately and fully vested, and all stock options and SARs will be cancelled on the change of control date in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the change of control price of the shares of common stock over the purchase or grant price of such shares under the award.

	●	Unvested restricted stock and RSUs (that are not performance awards) will vest in full.

	●	All performance shares, performance units and cash incentive awards for which the performance period has expired will be paid based on actual performance, and all such awards for which the performance period has not expired will be cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the amount that would have been due under such awards, valued assuming achievement of target performance goals at the time of the change of control, prorated based on the number of full months elapsed in the performance period.

	●	All unvested dividend equivalent units will vest (to the same extent as the award granted in tandem with such units) and be paid.

	●	All other unvested awards will vest and any amounts payable will be paid in cash.

Term of Plan

Unless earlier terminated by our board of directors, the Plan will terminate on, and no further awards may be granted, after the tenth (10^th) anniversary of its effective date.

Termination and Amendment of Plan

Our board of directors or the Administrator may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to the following limitations:

	●	Our board of directors must approve any amendment to the Plan if we determine such approval is required by prior action of our board of directors, applicable corporate law, or any other applicable law;

	●	Stockholders must approve any amendment to the Plan, which may include an amendment to materially increase the number of shares reserved under the Plan, if we determine that such approval is required by Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Code, the listing requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which the shares are then traded, or any other applicable law; and

	●	Stockholders must approve any amendment to the Plan that would diminish the protections afforded by the participant award limits or repricing and backdating prohibitions.

Amendment, Modification, Cancellation and Disgorgement of Awards

Subject to the requirements of the Plan, the Administrator may modify or amend any award or waive any restrictions or conditions applicable to any award or the exercise of the award, or amend, modify, or cancel any terms and conditions applicable to any award, in each case, by mutual agreement of the Administrator and the participant or any other person that may have an interest in the award, so long as any such action does not increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the Plan. Under the proposed amendment contained herein, the Company is proposing to allow for the repricing of Options and SARs, including reducing the exercise or grant price of an outstanding options or SAR, as determined by the Administrator with required approval by the Board.

We do not need to obtain participant (or other interested party) consent for any such action (a) that is permitted pursuant to the adjustment provisions of the Plan; (b) to the extent we deem the action necessary to comply with any applicable law or the listing requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which our common stock is then traded; (c) to the extent we deem the action is necessary to preserve favorable accounting or tax treatment of any award for us; or (d) to the extent we determine that such action does not materially and adversely affect the value of an award or that such action is in the best interest of the affected participant or any other person as may then have an interest in the award.

The Administrator can cause a participant to forfeit any award, and require the participant to disgorge any gains attributable to the award, if the participant engages in any action constituting, as determined by the Administrator in its discretion, cause for termination, or a breach of a material company policy, any award agreement or any other agreement between the participant and us or one of our affiliates concerning noncompetition, nonsolicitation, confidentiality, trade secrets, intellectual property, nondisparagement or similar obligations.

Any awards granted under the Plan, and any shares of common stock issued or cash paid under an award, will be subject to recoupment our Compensation Recovery Policy, or any recoupment or similar requirement otherwise made applicable by law, regulation or listing standards to us, or that may be provided for in any cash or equity award granted by us.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power present or represented by proxy is required to approve the Plan Amendment Proposal. Abstentions represent the voting power present under the Company’s amended and restated bylaws, and accordingly will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the outcome of this Proposal 4.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE PLAN AMENDMENTS.

PROPOSAL NO. 5:

APPROVAL OF POSSIBLE ADJOURNMENT OF THE MIRA ANNUAL MEETING

If MIRA fails to receive a sufficient number of votes to approve Proposal No. 1, 2, 3 or 4, MIRA may propose to postpone or adjourn the MIRA Annual Meeting, for a period of not more than 30 days, for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies to approve Proposal No. 1, 2, 3, or 4. MIRA currently does not intend to propose postponement or adjournment at the MIRA Annual Meeting if there are sufficient votes to approve Proposal No. 1, 2, 3 or 4.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast virtually or by proxy at the MIRA Annual Meeting is required to approve Proposal No. 2. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this Proposal. It is anticipated that Proposal No. 2 will be a discretionary proposal considered routine under the rules of the Nasdaq, which generally controls the ability of brokers to vote or not vote shares held in street name on certain matters, and thus will not result in broker non-votes.

THE MIRA BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT MIRA’S STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL NO. 5 TO POSTPONE OR ADJOURN THE MIRA ANNUAL MEETING, IF NECESSARY, TO SOLICIT ADDITIONAL PROXIES IF THERE ARE NOT SUFFICIENT VOTES IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL NO. 1. THE APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 1 IS REQUIRED TO CONSUMMATE THE MERGER.

For such proposals to be included in MIRA’s proxy materials relating to MIRA’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, all applicable requirements of Rule 14a-8 must be satisfied and such proposals must be received by MIRA no later than [ ].

STOCKHOLDERS SHARING THE SAME LAST NAME AND ADDRESS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements 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 provides extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. We and some brokers household proxy materials, delivering a single proxy statement to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker or us that they are or we will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement, or if you currently receive multiple proxy statements and would prefer to participate in householding, please notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account or us if you hold registered shares. You can notify us by sending a written request to 1200 Brickell Avenue, Suite 1950 #1183, Miami, FL, 33131, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

AGREEMENT

Article I
THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time and upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, SKNY shall be merged with and into Merger Sub. Following the Merger, (a) SKNY shall continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”), while the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, (b) the Certificate of Incorporation of SKNY shall remain in effect without amendment, (c) all outstanding shares of capital stock of Merger Sub shall be cancelled and converted into only the right to receive Company Common Stock at the Exchange Ratio, and (d) SKNY shall be a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA.

The Market

Nicotine Dependence

Nicotine dependence is a state of substance dependence on nicotine that occurs when your body gets used to having some level of nicotine in the system. Nicotine is a type of stimulant found in tobacco products. The body constantly depends on chemicals in physical and psychological ways. Tobacco use is one of the leading preventable causes of death worldwide.

It is a chronic, relapsing disease characterized by a compulsive craving to use the drug despite social consequences, loss of control over drug intake, and the emergence of withdrawal symptoms. While cigarettes are the most prevalent form of nicotine delivery, dependence can arise from all tobacco products, including smokeless tobacco and e-cigarettes.

Symptoms include:

●	Compulsive drug-seeking behavior – An overwhelming urge to use nicotine

●	Loss of control – Difficulty in limiting nicotine intake.

●	Withdrawal symptoms- Unpleasant physical and psychological effects upon cessation.

●	Tolerance – The need for increasing doses of nicotine to achieve the desired effects.

Nicotine dependence is a major public health problem due to its direct link to continued tobacco use, a leading preventable cause of death globally. Tobacco use is responsible for over 8 million deaths annually, with half of long-term users dying prematurely if they do not quit ¹². Current smokers face an estimated 10-year reduction in lifespan compared to non-smokers³.

The World Health Organization (WHO) highlights that greater nicotine dependence is associated with lower quit motivation, increased difficulty in quitting attempts, higher rates of failure, earlier initiation of smoking in the day, and a greater number of cigarettes smoked daily. In 2022, the WHO estimated 1.24 billion tobacco users worldwide, projecting a slight decline to 1.20 billion by 2025⁴. In the United States in 2018, of the 34 million smokers, approximately 74.6% were daily smokers, indicating a high potential for nicotine dependence within this population. Furthermore, individuals with psychiatric disorders, such as anxiety and substance use disorders, exhibit a higher incidence of nicotine dependence⁵.

Mechanism of Nicotine Dependence

Nicotine, a parasympathomimetic stimulant, exerts its effects by binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain. This interaction triggers the release of dopamine and other neurotransmitters associated with pleasure and reward. Chronic nicotine exposure leads to neuroplastic changes in the brain’s reward system, including an increase in the number of nicotine receptors (upregulation) as a response to initial receptor desensitization. This adaptation contributes significantly to the development of tolerance and dependence. Genetic factors also play a role in susceptibility to nicotine dependence, with specific genetic markers for nicotinic receptors being implicated.

Upon cessation of nicotine use, the brain experiences a lack of stimulation of these upregulated receptors, leading to the onset of withdrawal symptoms such as cravings, irritability, anxiety, and difficulty concentrating. These symptoms often lead to a relapse in individuals attempting to quit.

Treating Nicotine Dependence

Evidence-based treatments are available to aid in quitting nicotine dependence and tobacco use. These include:

Medications:

●	Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT): Provides nicotine without the harmful components of tobacco (e.g., patches, gum, lozenges, inhalers, nasal spray).

●	Bupropion: An antidepressant that helps reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

●	Varenicline: A medication that partially stimulates nicotine receptors, reducing cravings and blocking the rewarding effects of nicotine.

●	Cytisine: A plant-based alkaloid with similar effects to varenicline (not approved in all countries).

Behavioral Counseling: Provides support, coping strategies, and problem-solving skills to manage cravings and prevent relapse.

Combination Therapy: The most effective approach often involves combining medication with behavioral counseling, which can double or triple a smoker’s chances of successful quitting.

Emerging Treatments: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has shown promise in reducing nicotine cravings and aiding cessation.

Epidemiology of Nicotine Dependence

Approximately 32% of first-time nicotine users develop dependence¹. Globally, there are an estimated 976 million smokers², with roughly half meeting DSM criteria for dependence. While smoking rates and the number of cigarettes smoked per day are declining in some regions, like the United States, certain populations exhibit higher smoking prevalence, including individuals with lower education or socioeconomic status and those with mental illness. Men tend to smoke at higher rates and score higher on dependence indices, although women may face greater difficulty in quitting. Nicotine dependence is also more frequent among individuals with anxiety disorders.

Alarmingly, only about 6% of smokers who attempt to quit each year are successful, highlighting the powerful influence of nicotine dependence. The emergence of e-cigarettes raises concerns about potential new forms of nicotine dependence, particularly among youth³.

The United States has the largest adult population (over 267 million) and a significant TAM for tobacco products at over 10 million, despite not having the highest smoking rate. This highlights the sheer size of the market.

Smoking secession attempt rates don’t vary significantly across countries. The US shows the highest rate (55%), suggesting a greater desire or effort to quit among smokers in this market. In contrast, Canada (44.5%) and Mexico (53.3%) has lower reported a bit lower quit attempt rate.

The estimated percentage of smokers receiving tobacco dependence treatment also varies. Canada has the highest reported treatment rate (70.8%), followed by the US (29%) and Mexico (23.5%).

The Total Available Market (TAM) estimates each country’s overall market size for tobacco products. This data is crucial for businesses operating in or considering entering these markets. The US has the largest TAM, followed by Mexico and Canada.

Weight Loss

Obesity has emerged as a significant global health challenge. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 1 billion people worldwide are living with obesity, with substantial increases observed among both children and adults between 1990 and 2022.

Specifically, adult obesity rates have more than doubled, with women’s rates rising from 8.8% to 18.5% and men’s from 4.8% to 14% during this period. The highest obesity rates are in regions such as Tonga, American Samoa, and Nauru ⁴.

Within North America, Mexico and the US have the highest overweight and obesity rates (75% and 73.6% respectively), followed by Canada (65.7%)

Being overweight is a condition caused by excessive fat deposits. Obesity is a chronic, complex disease defined by excessive fat deposits that can impair health. Obesity is typically assessed using the Body Mass Index (BMI), calculated by dividing a person’s weight in kilograms by the square of their height in meters. The classifications are:

●	Overweight: BMI ≥ 25

●	Obesity: BMI ≥ 30

Several factors contribute to the development of obesity, including:

●	Excessive calorie intake: Consuming more calories than the body needs.

●	Sedentary lifestyle: Lack of physical activity.

●	Genetic predisposition: Family history of obesity.

●	Endocrine and metabolic disorders: Conditions like hypothyroidism.

●	Psychological factors: Stress, depression, and emotional eating.

●	Medications: Certain drugs can lead to weight gain.

Obesity significantly increases the risk of various health issues, such as:

●	Type 2 diabetes

●	Cardiovascular diseases: Including heart disease and stroke.

●	Hypertension

●	Certain cancers, Such as breast, colon, and endometrial cancers.

●	Sleep apnea

●	Osteoarthritis

●	Fatty liver disease

●	Mental health disorders: Including depression and anxiety.

Obesity is associated with approximately 5 million deaths annually¹. It is a leading cause of preventable death, particularly in developed countries. Economically, obesity imposes a substantial burden. For example, the United States spends around $173 billion annually on obesity-related healthcare costs, not accounting for indirect costs like lost productivity.

The global weight loss market is experiencing significant growth. According to the IMARC Group, the market reached $296.8 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $572.4 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7.57% from 2025 to 2033².

The market is segmented into:

●	Dietary Products: Including supplements, meals, and beverages.

●	Fitness Equipment: Such as cardiovascular and strength training equipment.

●	Services: Encompassing fitness centers, health clubs, consulting services, surgical clinics, and online weight loss programs.

North America holds the largest market share due to high obesity rates and advanced healthcare infrastructure. While Europe and Asia-Pacific are experiencing rapid growth driven by urbanization, changing lifestyles, and increasing health awareness.

Treatments

The treatment of overweight and obesity is multifaceted, involving a combination of lifestyle interventions, pharmacological therapies, surgical procedures, and increasingly, digital health tools. As obesity has evolved into a global epidemic, the demand for effective and sustainable treatments has surged. This growing demand has prompted rapid innovation and investment in clinical and consumer-facing weight management solutions.

Primary strategies for weight management include:

●	Dietary modifications: Adopting balanced, calorie-controlled diets.

●	Physical activity: Engaging in regular exercise.

●	Behavioral therapy: Counseling to address eating behaviors.

●	Digital tools: Utilizing apps and wearables for tracking progress.

Traditionally, the cornerstone of weight management has been lifestyle modification, comprising dietary adjustments, physical activity, and behavioral therapy. Nutritional counseling typically involves caloric restriction and macronutrient balance, often tailored to individual preferences and metabolic responses. Structured diet plans such as the Mediterranean, DASH, and low-carb or high-protein regimens have effectively reduced body weight and improved metabolic health.

Physical activity recommendations generally include 150–300 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise weekly. However, adherence remains challenging, leading many individuals to seek adjunctive or alternative interventions. Behavioral therapies—such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and group counseling—are frequently integrated to help patients address emotional eating, set realistic goals, and sustain healthy habits.

While these approaches form the foundation of obesity treatment, alone, they often produce modest weight loss (5–10% of body weight) and require continuous engagement, which many patients struggle to maintain. This gap has created space for pharmacological and procedural interventions.

Pharmacological Treatments

In recent years, anti-obesity medications (AOMs) have emerged as transformative options for individuals unable to achieve or maintain weight loss through lifestyle changes alone. Historically, pharmacotherapy for obesity has had limited efficacy and significant safety concerns. However, the landscape has shifted dramatically with introducing GLP-1 receptor agonists and other hormone-targeting drugs that regulate appetite and satiety with improved safety profiles.

Moore Financial Consulting

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc.	April 2025
Valuation	Page 12 of 25

Several medications have been approved for weight management:

●	Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy): A GLP-1 receptor agonist that promotes satiety.

●	Tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro): A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Clinical trials have shown that participants taking the highest dose of Zepbound lost an average of 48 lbs over 72 weeks.

●	Liraglutide (Saxenda): Another GLP-1 receptor agonist used for weight management.

These medications are typically prescribed for individuals with a BMI ≥ 30 or ≥ 27 with weight-related comorbidities and are used alongside lifestyle interventions.

The most significant recent advancement in pharmacological treatment is glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, which mimic the effects of the GLP-1 hormone, promoting insulin secretion, delaying gastric emptying, and inducing a feeling of fullness. Leading medications include:

●	Wegovy (semaglutide): The FDA approved Wegovy in 2021 for chronic weight management. In clinical trials, it demonstrated an average weight loss of 15% of body weight. It is administered via weekly subcutaneous injection.

●	Ozempic (semaglutide): Originally developed for type 2 diabetes, Ozempic is widely used off-label for weight loss and has surged in popularity globally.

●	Zepbound (tripeptide): Approved by the FDA in late 2023, Zepbound offers even greater efficacy. A dual GIP and GLP-1 agonist, it showed a 22.5% average body weight reduction in late-stage trials, surpassing all previous medications.

Liraglutide (Saxenda)

An earlier GLP-1 analog, Saxenda requires daily injections and yields average weight loss of 5–10%. While less effective than newer options, it remains a widely prescribed option, especially for those who may not tolerate more potent agents.

Other Approved Medications

●	Orlistat (Alli, Xenical): A lipase inhibitor that prevents fat absorption in the intestine. It’s over the counter in many markets but often associated with gastrointestinal side effects.

●	Phentermine/Topiramate (Qsymia): A combination drug that reduces appetite and enhances satiety.

●	Naltrexone/Bupropion (Contrave): A combination affecting central nervous system pathways involved in appetite regulation.

Cost Overview

●	Wegovy: Approx. $1,300 to $1,500/month (U.S. market)

●	Zepbound: Approx. $1,060/month

●	Saxenda: Approx. $1,300/month

●	Orlistat: ~$50–$100/month (OTC versions)

●	Qsymia and Contrave: Range between $150–$300/month, depending on insurance and discounts

Prices vary widely by region and are significantly impacted by insurance coverage, generics availability, and regulatory policies.

Surgical Interventions

For individuals with severe obesity (typically BMI ≥40, or ≥35 with comorbidities), bariatric surgery remains the most effective long-term treatment. Procedures such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and adjustable gastric banding alter the digestive system to limit food intake and/or nutrient absorption.

Bariatric surgery can lead to 30–40% weight loss and often results in the remission of obesity-related conditions like type 2 diabetes. However, it carries risks of surgical complications and long-term nutritional deficiencies, and access remains limited due to cost and capacity.

Weight Loss Epidemiology

As mentioned above, the combined overweight and obesity rates in North America are amongst the world’s highest. Mexico and the US have the highest overweight and obesity rates (75% and 73.6% respectively), followed by Canada (65.7%).

In the U.S., approximately 6% of adults report currently using GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as Ozempic or Mounjaro ¹.²While specific data for other countries is limited, similar trends are observed in developed nations due to increasing awareness and availability of these treatments. Therefore, we assume a similar percentage of adults currently using approved medications to lose weight in the US, Canada and Mexico.

Methodology

Methodology for asset valuation

A valuation of business, operations, assets or liabilities can be carried out according to one or more methodologies for valuation. For the most part, the general practice divides the valuation methodologies between the three following main approaches:

●	The Cost Approach / Net Asset Value (NAV).

●	The Comparative Method / Market Approach.

●	The Income / Earnings Approach

Valuation methodology can make use of one or more of the approaches above. Choosing the appropriate valuation methodology varies from case to case. While each of the various approaches and methodologies has its own uniqueness and is suitable for other types of assets or evaluating various business situations.

In addition, all the approaches require references to various parameters and different information available and therefore the choice of valuation methodology should be done carefully with attention to both the nature of the asset valued, the business environment in which it is located and the information available to the appraiser at the valuation.

The Cost Approach / Net Asset Value (NAV)

The cost approach estimates the economic value of the entity’s assets and liabilities based on their market value. To carry out the valuation based on this method, it is required to replace the book value (accounting numbers) of assets and liabilities (and the off-balance components) with their economic value.

In other words, in contrast to the ‘book value,” the “assets value” “of the Company refers to the net realizable values (Exit Value) of assets and liabilities. The implied equity value is the entity’s total fair value assets less the fair value of its liabilities.

In this approach it is not required to use any forecasts and future value calculation but only present data. For example, if a company, which began operating in a short time before the valuation date, is the owner of production machines whatsoever, the value will be as the fair value of the machines (i.e. the fair value is the price at which the company can sell the machines in the free market and arm’s length transaction basis) plus other company’s assets, minus its liabilities.

The NAV approach is commonly used especially for: (1) companies in liquidation, (2) early-stage companies, (3) companies which are all in fair value, or most of their value are in fair value (mainly holding companies and real estate entities), i.e. the major portion of their value is reflected on their balance sheet (except of “intangible assets” or “goodwill”) or (4) in order to obtain a lower bound for the value of the company.

Moore Financial Consulting

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc.	April 2025
Valuation	Page 15 of 25

The Comparative Method / Market Approach

Under this approach, the estimated value of the asset is based on actual transactions which took place whereby market conditions in the asset itself, or in similar assets, the transactions are carried out within a reasonable time before the valuation date and the markets the comparable assets operate are like the market of the asset valued.

This approach estimates the asset based on comparable purchase and sale transactions of similar activities. The use of information about purchases of similar assets (for the assessment of the asset’s value) assumes that the relevant parameters deriving from similar non-financial businesses can be a basis for deriving the estimated value of the asset.

The above is reserved by the condition that a similar transaction is between a willing buyer and a willing seller (i.e. arm’s length transactions). In such a case, the value of the transaction reflects the real market value of the asset transferred. Comparative transactions which constitute the comparative sample evaluation can be a sale of whole asset on the one hand (e.g., the sale of company), and on the other hand a quote of traded share price of a similar company.

After finding those relevant comparable transactions, it is required to standardize the value of the assets to which they compare to estimate the asset’s value according to selected parameters. Then the asset is estimated based on a comparison between the sample of assets, based on the assumption that similar assets are characterized by the same multiples and/or by similar financial ratios.

The comparison is based on the calculated ratio between the value of the asset and the selected performance parameter. This ratio is called the “multiplier.”

The Income / Earnings Approach

According to the income approach, the value of an economic asset is derived from the future cash flows arising from it. The basic principle underlying the income approach is that an asset / company is an active ongoing concern premise and will operate in the future. The aim of the income approach is to reach the current value based on the firm’s forecast cash flows.

The main valuation methodology in the income approach is the discounted cash flow method (DCF). The principle of the method is that the value of the asset is the present value of free cash flow (FCF) which is generated during the forecast period (finite or infinite).

The first step in this approach is to build a cash flow projection of the entity (based on the entity’s business model). The model is a set of logical-mathematical relationships between various parameters which are considered as factors that affect the future financial results of the asset that is estimated. The result is a line of cash flows arising from the different formulas and parameters used in the model’s assumptions.

In the second phase, to determine the value of the asset it is required to set an appropriate discount rate which is the basis for discounting future cash flows and translating them into current values. The discount rate reflects the level of activity’s risk. As much as the entity’s activity is dangerous (i.e., the level of uncertainty that exists to realization is lower) then it is required to choose a higher discount rate. As much as the discount rate is higher then, the cash flow’s present value will be lower.

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) assumes that the average investor holds the market portfolio and therefore he is exposed to market risks and hence measurement of risk for an individual asset is relative risk compared to the market portfolio.

According to this model, the rate of return on equity is derived from the risk-free interest rate plus a market risk premium multiplied by the risk level of the company which is relative to the standard deviation of the market portfolio (ß).

Ke = Rf + ß * (Rm-Rf)

Where:

RF = risk-free interest rate

ß = The correlation level between the return on investment and the return on the market portfolio

Rm-Rf = Risk premium on risky assets above the risk-free interest rate

The Beta of the asset will be derived usually from the calculation of the actual beta of the share of the company, which is estimated, from a sample of similar listed companies, or from a database. First, the beta-share leveraged will be derived from peer group, and then re-leveraging will be carried out to reach the appropriate beta for the estimated company.

Sometimes it is common to include additional premiums for the cost of capital in respect of business risks which are not “perceived” by the CAPM, such as the premium for small companies (small-size premium) and other risk premiums.

Methodology in SKNY valuation

SNKY’s valuation was performed using the income approach and the risk-adjusted net present value (rNPV) method. This method enhances standard DCF analysis by adjusting cash flow projections for the probability of success, i.e., adjusting for the probability of successfully advancing through clinical trials and regulatory approval. As a result, this method is also referred to as the expected net present value (eNPV) method. Among the various early-stage biotech valuation methods, the rNPV method is the most appropriate. This method is suited for valuing:

●	Preclinical and clinical stage biotech assets

●	Novel pharma and biotech drugs undergoing development

●	Other life sciences assets that undergo phased development

The mechanics of rNPV involve:

●	Estimating clinical trial and approval probabilities

●	Adjusting cash flow projections for risk using these probabilities

●	Discounting risk-adjusted cash flows to present value

●	Summing risk-adjusted cash flows to derive rNPV

This captures the risks inherent in biotech drug development. rNPV provides a more accurate asset valuation than basic DCF as it enables conducting pharma and biotech valuation based on the stage (preclinical, Phase 1-3) of development of assets.

As mentioned in the company description, SKNY is currently in the process of developing two indications:

●	SKNY-1 -Aims to treat Nicotine dependence and Smoking cessation.

●	SKNY-1 – As a Weight loss treatment.

We have valued SKNY under the assumption that these are its only two projects. Therefore, we accounted for expected income and expenses related to these indications alone and did not take into consideration developments that the Company might be performing in the future.

Another assumption made for the sake of the current valuation is that the Company will develop the two indications on its own until the successful termination of the Phase II clinical trials and following that will seek for a business agreement with a large pharma company that will perform the Phase III clinical trials (on its own account) and after the successful conclusion of the trials will continue and market the finished products. SKNY will be entitled for an upfront payment at the end of Phase II and royalties from the third-party revenues.

Timeline of the development of the Indications

Following, we present the assumptions regarding the development of the SKNY-1 for Nicotine Dependence and SKNY-1 for Weight Loss:

Based on information received from the company and our research, we have assumed the following regarding the development of SKNY-1 for both Indications:

The timeline is presented in the following chart:

*A single IND and Phase I are required for both SKNY-1 indications, and the costs are shared between the two indications.

Total Available Markets

SKNY-1 Nicotine Dependence

The total available market, therefore, comprises every case of smokers who use medication to quit smoking. We have assumed that the relevant markets for the Company in the first years of sales are as follows: U.S.A, Canada and Mexico. In the following table we present the prevalence in these markets:

Moore Financial Consulting

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc.	April 2025

SKNY-1 Weight Loss

The total available market for this indication comprises Overweight (and obese) adults who use medication to lose weight. In the following table, we present the total available market in the U.S.A., Canada, and Mexico:

Market Share

We have assumed the third-party pharmaceutical company with which SKNY will reach a marketing agreement will take the following market shares in each of the two markets within the schedule in the tables:

Treatments: Schedule and Price

We have assumed that the SKNY-1 for Nicotine dependence will be given to patients for twelve months at approximately 300$ per month and that the SKNY-1 for weight loss will be given each month at approximately 900$ per month.

Upfront and Royalties

As mentioned, one of the main assumptions is that the Company will continue developing and testing the SKNY-1 until the successful termination of phase II clinical trials and afterward will come to an agreement with a large pharmaceutical company that will take charge of the continuation of the clinical testing (Phase III) and, when successful, of the commercialization of both developments.

Moore Financial Consulting

SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc.	April 2025
Valuation	Page 20 of 25

It is assumed that the Company will be entitled to an upfront payment upon signing the agreement with the pharma company and, afterward, to royalties paid based on the revenues that this third party will generate from the sales of SKNY-1. The upfront and royalty rates assumed are as follows:

Costs and Expenses

The Company will incur R&D expenses until the end of the Phase II clinical trials and G&A expenses throughout its lifespan. Also, the Company will finance the costs of the IND, Phase I, and Phase II clinical trials. Following are the assumptions regarding the expenses (The clinical costs are mentioned above) and expenses related to both developments:

In addition, for each indication, the expenses include 8% of revenue in royalties for Miralogixs

Clinical Trials Success Rates

As mentioned, SKNY’s valuation was performed using the income approach and the risk-adjusted net present value (rNPV) method. This method enhances standard DCF analysis by adjusting cash flow projections for the probability of success, i.e., adjusting for the probability of successfully advancing through clinical trials and regulatory approval. The rates used in the current valuation are based on research performed and published by the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO)¹.

The description of this research, in BIO own words “ A total of 12,728 clinical and regulatory phase transitions were recorded and analyzed from 9,704 development programs over the last decade (2011–2020), across 1,779 companies. Phase transitions occur when a drug candidate advances into the next phase of development or is suspended by the sponsor. By calculating the number of programs progressing to the next phase vs the total number progressing and suspended, we assessed the success rate at each of the four phases of development: Phase I, II, III, and regulatory filing. Having phase-by-phase data in hand, we then compared groups of diseases, drug modalities, and other attributes to generate the most comprehensive analysis yet of biopharmaceutical R&D success.”

One of the results of the BIO research is the following table containing the success rates per disease area:

As can be seen, the success rates of clinical trials differ according to the area of disease and according to the phase. The average success rates are represented by “All Indication” in which the probability of success of Phase I is 52% and those of Phase II and Phase III are 28.9% and 57.8% respectively. For the Company’s indications development, we used the Neurology success rates from the above table. Also, the success rate in IND application is around 90%¹.

The Company

MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“MIRA,” or the “Company”), is a pre-clinical-stage pharmaceutical development company with two neuroscience programs targeting a broad range of neurologic and neuropsychiatric disorders. The Company holds exclusive license rights in the U.S., Canada and Mexico for Ketamir-2, a novel, patent pending oral ketamine analog under pre-clinical investigation to potentially deliver ultra-rapid antidepressant effects, providing hope for individuals battling neuropathic pain.

Additionally, the Company’s novel oral pharmaceutical Cannabinoid, MIRA-55, is currently under investigation for its potential to help people suffering from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), as well as anxiety and cognitive decline, symptoms often associated with early-stage dementia. MIRA-55, if approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), could mark a significant advancement in addressing various neuropsychiatric, inflammatory, and neurologic diseases and disorders.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s (“DEA”) scientific reviews of both Ketamir-2 and MIRA-55 concluded that they would not be considered a controlled substance or listed chemical under the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”) and its governing regulations.

On March 2025, the Company announced the approval and upcoming initiation of its Phase 1 clinical trial for Ketamir-2, the Company’s novel oral ketamine analog in development for Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (DNP), with subject recruitment scheduled to begin in Q1 2025.

With Phase 1 expected to conclude by year-end, Mira is on track to initiate Phase 2a studies in neuropathic pain patients in Q4 2025, further advancing the potential of Ketamir-2 as a novel treatment for neuropathic pain and other neuro indications.

In early February 2024, the Company made a significant discovery during the manufacturing and scale-up process of its patented molecule known as “MIRA1a,” which the Company believed was the molecule used in its pre-clinical trials and had been synthesized by a contract manufacturer. Through this process, the Company identified a novel and improved version of the molecule, which the Company calls MIRA-55.

As part of the Company’s due diligence and subsequent testing, which began in late 2023, the Company discovered that the pre-clinical studies the Company conducted, previously attributed to MIRA1a, were in fact performed on MIRA-55. Following this revelation, in early March 2024, the Company promptly filed a provisional patent for MIRA-55, which encompasses all pre-clinical studies. If such patent is issued, the Company will own the patent rights to both MIRA1a and MIRA-55.

Moreover, based on the Company’s pre-clinical analyses to date, the Company believes that MIRA-55 is an improvement over MIRA1a in that it displays enhanced potency and potential for efficacy.

Based on the Company’s discoveries and pre-clinical studies to date, the Company has decided to advance MIRA-55 as its lead compound for the Company’s oral pharmaceutical Cannabis candidate while still retaining its rights to MIRA1a. As such, the Company has decided not to move MIRA1a forward.

The Markets

Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (DNP)

Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) represents one of the most prevalent and debilitating complications associated with diabetes, accounting for most neuropathic pain cases globally. Epidemiological data indicates that approximately one-third of individuals with diabetes experience DNP¹, underscoring a significant patient population impacted by this condition.

Clinically, DNP is defined by the presence of neuropathic symptoms and/or signs in diabetic patients, following the exclusion of alternative etiologies. The condition arises primarily from prolonged hyperglycemia, which leads to nerve damage, most commonly affecting the lower extremities—specifically the legs and feet.

DNP is typically characterized by a range of sensory disturbances, including burning, tingling, sharp, shooting, or electric shock-like sensations. The intensity of pain is often rated as moderate to severe and tends to worsen during nighttime hours, frequently disrupting sleep.

In addition to persistent pain, many patients experience cutaneous allodynia, where even light touch can provoke significant discomfort. This symptom burden has a substantial negative impact on health-related quality of life, impairing daily functioning, reducing participation in social and recreational activities, and contributing to psychological comorbidities such as depression.

Given its high prevalence, chronic nature, and the profound impact on patient well-being, DNP represents a significant area of unmet medical need. Current treatment options often provide limited relief, highlighting an opportunity for innovative therapies that can more effectively address both the physical and psychological dimensions of the condition.

DNP Diagnosis and Treatment Algorithm

The diagnosis of diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) is multifaceted, requiring a combination of clinical assessment, neurological examination, and confirmatory diagnostic testing. Patients typically present with hallmark symptoms such as burning, tingling, or shooting pain in the extremities, often accompanied by sensory disturbances or loss of sensation.

A comprehensive patient history—focusing on diabetes duration and glycemic control—is a critical component of the diagnostic process. Neurological evaluations assess sensory function, deep tendon reflexes, and motor strength. To confirm peripheral neuropathy and exclude differential diagnoses, additional diagnostic modalities such as nerve conduction studies, electromyography (EMG), quantitative sensory testing, and imaging (e.g., MRI) may be employed. Effective diagnosis and ongoing management often require a multidisciplinary approach involving primary care providers, neurologists, endocrinologists, and pain specialists.

Current Treatment Paradigm

The therapeutic management of DNP is two-pronged:

1.	Disease-Modifying Interventions: Aimed at slowing or halting nerve fiber degeneration through optimized glycemic control and management of metabolic factors.

2.	Symptomatic Treatments: Focused on alleviating neuropathic pain and improving patient quality of life, including physical and psychological functioning.

Clinical guidelines generally recommend tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) analogs—namely gabapentin and pregabalin—as first-line pharmacologic agents. When first-line agents prove insufficient, second-line options such as opioids or topical therapies (e.g., capsaicin, lidocaine patches) may be considered.

Despite the availability of pharmacologic treatments, many patients report suboptimal pain relief or encounter tolerability issues, emphasizing the need for more effective and targeted therapies.

Pharmacologic Milestones in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) Treatment

Duloxetine (Cymbalta, Eli Lilly)

In September 2004, duloxetine, a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), became the first medication to receive U.S. FDA approval specifically for the treatment of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). As a dual reuptake inhibitor, duloxetine exerts its therapeutic effect through the enhancement of both serotonergic and noradrenergic neurotransmission in the central nervous system (CNS). While the exact mechanism underlying its central pain-modulating activity remains incompletely understood, the inhibition of norepinephrine reuptake is widely believed to play a critical role in attenuating neuropathic pain pathways.

Pregabalin and the Evolution of Anticonvulsant Therapies

Historically, traditional anticonvulsants have been utilized off-label for neuropathic pain management since the 1960s. However, the treatment paradigm shifted in 2004 when pregabalin (Lyrica) received FDA approval specifically for the management of DPN-related pain. As a next-generation GABA analog, Pregabalin works by attaching specific parts of nerve cells—known as calcium channels—to help calm overactive nerve signals that cause pain, thereby reducing excitatory neurotransmitter release and alleviating pain.

The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) and other leading clinical guidelines currently endorse pregabalin as a first-line therapeutic option for DPN, citing robust evidence for its efficacy in pain reduction and its positive impact on sleep quality—an important aspect of overall disease burden.

Market Significance

The approvals of duloxetine and pregabalin marked pivotal moments in the formalization of treatment protocols for DPN, reflecting growing recognition of neuropathic pain as a distinct and manageable clinical entity. Both agents have maintained strong market positions due to their efficacy profiles, though ongoing unmet needs around tolerability, partial response, and disease modification continue to drive demand for next-generation therapeutics.

Emerging Therapies in Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (DNP)

As the prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy continues to rise, significant unmet needs persist in the management of chronic neuropathic pain. Several novel agents are currently in development, targeting alternative mechanisms of action to enhance efficacy and tolerability. Below are two investigational therapies advancing through clinical trials:

MEDI7352 – AstraZeneca

MEDI7352 is a first-in-class bispecific monoclonal antibody (mAb) designed to simultaneously inhibit nerve growth factor (NGF) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF), two key mediators in the pathophysiology of chronic pain. Bispecific antibodies offer dual-targeting capabilities, potentially enhancing therapeutic efficacy by modulating multiple pain pathways.

Currently in Phase II clinical trials, MEDI7352 is being evaluated for its efficacy and safety in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN). The program reflects AstraZeneca’s strategic investment in novel biologics to address chronic pain conditions, particularly where standard pharmacotherapies fall short.

CNTX-6016 – Centrexion Therapeutics

CNTX-6016 is a highly selective cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2) agonist for its analgesic potential in neuropathic pain. Unlike CB1 receptors, CB2 receptors are primarily expressed in immune cells and peripheral tissues, allowing for pain relief without central nervous system side effects such as psychoactivity or sedation.

The compound is in Phase IIa clinical trials, focused on assessing safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers and a subset of patients with painful diabetic neuropathy. Its novel mechanism positions it as a differentiated candidate in the cannabinoid-based therapeutic space.

CNTX-6016 may appeal to clinicians and patients seeking non-opioid, non-GABAergic alternatives with reduced risk of abuse or cognitive impairment, offering potential market advantage in the chronic pain segment.

Diabetic Neuropathy Market Size

According to Precedence Research², the global diabetic neuropathy market was valued at USD 4.50 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach approximately USD 9.06 billion by 2034, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.24% from 2025 to 2034. This growth is primarily driven by the rising prevalence of diabetic neuropathy, particularly among the aging diabetic population, coupled with ongoing advancements in the development of innovative therapeutics aimed at addressing this condition.

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a clinical condition that represents an intermediate stage between normal age-related cognitive decline and dementia. It involves noticeable issues with memory, language, or judgment, but these changes are not severe enough to interfere with daily functioning or independent living.

Individuals with MCI are often aware of changes in their cognitive abilities, and these changes may also be observed by close family or friends. However, the impact typically does not disrupt routine activities.

While MCI increases the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, progression is not guaranteed. In some cases, symptoms remain stable or even improve over time.

MCI does not have a single, definitive cause. Instead, it results from a combination of factors that can affect brain function. Age is the most significant risk factor — MCI becomes more common as people get older, with an estimated 10% to 20% of adults over age 65 experiencing some form of it³. In addition to aging, genetic predisposition and chronic health conditions such as diabetes, depression, and stroke can increase the likelihood of developing MCI. It’s also important to note that not all memory and thinking problems are permanent or progressive. Some are linked to treatable conditions, including:

■	Adverse reactions to medications

■	Mental health challenges such as anxiety or emotional distress

■	Excessive alcohol use

■	Brain injuries, tumors, or blood clots

In such cases, addressing the underlying issue may lead to significant improvement in cognitive function.

MCI Symptoms

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is characterized by noticeable problems with memory, language, and judgment that are more pronounced than typical age-related changes. However, these symptoms do not significantly interfere with daily life at home or in the workplace. As the brain ages, it’s normal for individuals to experience occasional forgetfulness — such as taking longer to recall names or finding the right word. When memory and thinking difficulties exceed what’s expected for one’s age, they may be signs of MCI. Common symptoms of MCI include:

■	Frequent forgetfulness, such as misplacing items or missing appointments

■	Difficulty following conversations or losing track of a thought

■	Trouble recalling familiar names, words, or the plot of a story

■	Challenges in decision-making or completing everyday tasks

■	Trouble navigating familiar environments

■	Poor judgment or making unusual choices

■	Language difficulties, such as word-finding problems

Page 13 of 28

While MCI symptoms may be subtle at first, their persistence or progression warrants professional evaluation, especially when they are noticed by others close to the individual.

Causes and Brain Changes Associated with MCI

MCI does not have a single, defined cause. In some cases, MCI represents an early stage of Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, but outcomes vary widely. For some individuals, cognitive symptoms remain stable for years or may even improve, while for others, MCI gradually progresses to Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia.

MCI is often linked to the same underlying brain changes seen in neurodegenerative diseases, but these changes tend to occur at a milder level. Post-mortem studies have confirmed that people with MCI can exhibit a range of neuropathological features, including:

■	Beta-amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles — hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease

■	Lewy bodies — abnormal protein aggregates associated with Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and occasionally Alzheimer’s

■	Cerebrovascular changes, such as small strokes or reduced blood flow in brain vessels

Advanced imaging techniques have also revealed brain structure and function changes commonly associated with MCI, such as:

■	Shrinking of the hippocampus, a region critical for memory processing

■	Enlarged brain ventricles, the fluid-filled spaces that cushion the brain

■	Reduced glucose metabolism in specific brain regions, indicating lower activity in areas responsible for memory and thinking

These findings support the understanding of MCI as a complex, multifactorial condition, with both degenerative and vascular components potentially contributing to its development.

Complications of mild cognitive impairment include a higher risk — but not a certainty — of dementia. Overall, about 1% to 3% of older adults develop dementia every year. Studies suggest that around 10% to 15% of people with mild cognitive impairment go on to develop dementia each year ⁴.

Diagnosis of MCI

There is no single test that can definitively diagnose Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Instead, the diagnosis is made through a comprehensive evaluation that includes medical history, clinical assessment, and cognitive testing. Most healthcare providers follow internationally recognized criteria established by expert panels. These include:

■	Noticeable cognitive changes: Individuals with MCI often report issues with memory, planning, following instructions, or making decisions. These concerns are typically confirmed by someone close to the individual, such as a family member or friend.

Moore Financial Consulting

April 2025

Valuation

Page 14 of 28

■	Documented decline over time: A detailed medical history helps establish that cognitive ability has declined from a previous baseline. Input from close contacts helps verify this progression.

■	Preserved daily functioning: Although cognitive changes are present, individuals with MCI can continue to perform daily activities independently. The condition does not interfere with routine life at home or work.

■

Mild impairment shown on cognitive tests: Standardized screening tools — such as the Short Test of Mental Status, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), or the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), may reveal subtle deficits appropriate to age and education level. More comprehensive neuropsychological testing can help determine the extent and type of cognitive impairment.

■	Does not meet criteria for dementia: While MCI involves cognitive decline, the symptoms are not severe enough to qualify as dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease or other related conditions.

Early identification and monitoring are key in managing MCI, especially to assess the potential risk of progression to more serious cognitive disorders.

Pharmaceutical Treatments of MCI

Currently, there is no FDA-approved medication specifically for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). However, a few drugs are sometimes used off-label—especially when MCI is suspected to be an early stage of Alzheimer’s disease. Here’s a breakdown of medications that may be used for MCI, particularly in clinical or off-label contexts:

Drug Name	Brand Name	Purpose
Donepezil	Aricept	Enhances acetylcholine to support memory and learning
Rivastigmine	Exelon	Like donepezil; also approved for Parkinson’s dementia
Galantamine	Razadyne	Modulates nicotinic receptors as well as inhibiting acetylcholinesterase

Emerging & Experimental Drugs (Under Investigation)

Anti-Amyloid Therapies for MCI and Mild Alzheimer’s Disease⁵:

Lecanemab (brand name: Leqembi) is the first anti-amyloid therapy to demonstrate clear clinical benefit in individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and mild Alzheimer’s disease. The drug, previously known as BAN2401, received accelerated approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on January 6, 2023, based on evidence from surrogate endpoints—specifically the reduction of beta-amyloid plaques—that are reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit.

In contrast, aducanumab (brand name: Aduhelm™), another monoclonal antibody targeting beta-amyloid, was granted accelerated approval by the FDA in June 2021. However, its clinical efficacy remains uncertain due to inconsistent findings in clinical trials. As a result, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) limited coverage of Aduhelm to individuals enrolled in qualifying clinical studies.

The development and approval of these agents reflect ongoing efforts to target disease-modifying mechanisms in early-stage Alzheimer’s disease, although long-term outcomes and cost-effectiveness remain subjects of continued evaluation.

On July 2024, The FDA has approved Kisunla (donanemab-azbt) injection for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Kisunla is a monoclonal antibody developed by Eli Lilly that targets and reduces amyloid plaques in the brain, which are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. Treatment with Kisunla should be initiated in patients with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia stage of disease, the population in which treatment was studied in the clinical trials.

MCI market size

According to market research performed by Research Nester⁶, The global mild cognitive impairment (MCI) market is projected to grow from USD 2.3 billion in 2025 to USD 4.4 billion by 2037, at a CAGR of 6.1%. Growth is driven by rising Alzheimer’s cases, investment in genomic medicine, and public health initiatives promoting early diagnosis. However, challenges include high treatment costs and a lack of standard diagnostic criteria. The amnestic MCI segment is expected to dominate due to its association with more severe neurological conditions.

This report states that the North American market is predicated to obtain the largest share of 45.5% during the forecast period. Its inflated economic burden due to healthcare expenditures on the aging population is pushing the authorities and pharma leaders to focus on development in this sector.

Looking ahead, the U.S. MCI market is projected to experience significant growth. By 2037, it is estimated to reach USD 2.0 billion, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2037.

The Comparative Method / Market Approach

The above is reserved by the condition that a similar transaction is between a willing buyer and a willing seller (i.e. arm’s length transactions). In such a case, the value of the transaction reflects the real market value of the asset transferred. Comparative transactions which constitute the comparative sample evaluation can be the sale of whole asset on the one hand (e.g., the sale of company), and on the other hand a quote of trade share price of a similar company.

The comparison is based on the calculated ratio between the value of the asset and the selected performance parameter. This ratio is called the “multiplier.”

The Income / Earnings Approach

According to the income approach, the value of an economic asset is derived from the future cash flows arising from it. The basic principle underlying the income approach is that an asset / company is an active ongoing concern premise and will operate in the future. The aim of the income approach is to reach the current value based on the firm’s forecast cash flows.

Methodology in Mira’s valuation

Mira’s valuation was performed under the income approach, using the Risk-Adjusted Net Present Value (rNPV) method. This method enhances standard DCF analysis by adjusting cash flow projections for the probability of success, i.e., adjusting for the probability of successfully advancing through clinical trials and regulatory approval. As a result, this method is also referred to as the expected net present value (eNPV) method. Among the various early-stage biotech valuation methods, the rNPV method is the most appropriate. This method is suited for valuing:

●	Preclinical and clinical stage biotech assets

●	Novel pharma and biotech drugs undergoing development

●	Other life sciences assets that undergo phased development

The mechanics of rNPV involve:

●	Estimating clinical trial and approval probabilities

●	Adjusting cash flow projections for risk using these probabilities

●	Discounting risk-adjusted cash flows to present value

●	Summing risk-adjusted cash flows to derive rNPV

As mentioned in the company description, Mira is currently in the process of developing two indications:

■

Ketamir-2 - A ketamine analog under investigation for the potential to treat Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (“DNP”)

■

Mira-55 - A THC analogue under investigation for treating patients suffering from Mild Cognitive Impairment (“MCI”)

We have valued Mira under the assumption that these are the only two projects, therefore we accounted for expected income and expenses related to these indications alone and did not take into consideration developments that the Company might be performing in the future.

Another assumption made for the sake of the current valuation is that the Company will develop the two indications on its own until the successful termination of the Phase II clinical trials and following that will seek for a business agreement with a large pharma company that will perform the Phase III clinical trials (on its own account) and after the successful conclusion of the trials will continue and market the finished products. Mira will be entitled to an upfront payment at the end of Phase II and royalties from the third-party revenues.

Total Available Markets

The company holds exclusive license rights in the U.S, Canada and Mexico for ketamir-2, therefore our estimations of these potential markets are solely based on these geographical markets. We made the same assumption regarding the Mira-55 markets.

Ketamir-2 (DNP)

Ketamir-2 is intended for the treatment of Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (DNP). Our estimations of the Ketamir-55 market size are based on the adult populations of North American countries, the prevalence of Diabetes and DNP in these populations.

Mira-55 (MCI)

The above figures are based on the current adult populations in each of the geographical markets. The valuation is performed based on estimations of the future populations in these markets.

Market Share

Our assumptions regarding the market shares of each indication in all the markets are as follows:

Treatments: Schedule and Price

Our assumption regarding the eventual medication sale prices are as follows:

Prices are based on existing prices of branded products used for these indications nowadays. Third-party revenue is 70% of the retail sale prices (Mira’s revenue is calculated according to the royalty rate assumed).

Upfront and Royalties

As mentioned, one of the main assumptions is that the Company will continue developing and testing the Ketamir-2 and Mira-55 until the successful termination of phase II clinical trials and afterward will come to an agreement with a large pharmaceutical company that will take charge of the continuation of the clinical testing (Phase III) and, when successful, of the commercialization of both developments.

It is assumed that the Company will be entitled to an upfront payment upon signing the agreement with the pharma company and, afterward, to royalties paid based on the revenues that this third party will generate from the sales of both Ketamir-2 and Mira-55. The upfront and royalty rates assumed are as follows:

Costs and Expenses

In addition, the expenses relating to Ketamir-2 include 8% of revenue as royalties to Miralogixs.

Clinical Trials Success Rates

As mentioned, Mira’s valuation was performed under the income approach, using the Risk-Adjusted Net Present Value (rNPV) method. This method enhances standard DCF analysis by adjusting cash flow projections for the probability of success, i.e., adjusting for the probability of successfully advancing through clinical trials and regulatory approval.

The notice shall identify the patent in question, the fees or steps needed and the time by which they must be paid or taken. Licensee shall then have the right, but not the obligation, within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, to elect by written notice to take over ownership and maintenance at its cost; thereafter, Licensor shall enter into an assignment of that patent or application and all rights thereunder to Licensee.

6.4 Licensor Patent Applications. If Licensor desires to abandon the prosecution of any patent application falling within the Patent Rights, it shall give Licensee written notice of such intention not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the applicable fee payment or abandonment deadline. The notice shall identify the application in question, the fees or steps needed and the time by which they must be paid or taken. Licensee shall then have the right, but not the obligation, within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, to elect by written notice to take over ownership and prosecution at its cost; thereafter, Licensor shall enter into an assignment of that patent application and all rights thereunder to Licensee. Licensee shall only pursue claims to the Licensed Product in the Field of Use in any applications assigned under Section 6.4.

ARTICLE 7—PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS

7.1 Product Development. Licensee acknowledges that it will be solely responsible for clinical development of the Licensed Product and, if commercially feasible, commercialization of the Licensed Product, including obtaining all regulatory approvals.

7.2 Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Licensee shall take such steps as are commercially reasonable to further the clinical development of the Licensed Product and to bring the Licensed Product to practical application within the Field of Use, provided that Licensee reasonably believes that the Licensed Product is safe and effective as determined by successfully meeting its predetermined endpoints in its clinical trials, and provided that Licensee receives necessary regulatory approvals to continue development and reach the market for the Licensed Product in the Licensed Territory. Licensee shall keep Licensor informed in writing during the clinical development period on at least a semiannual basis of Licensee’s efforts and results with regard to continuing development of the Licensed Product. Licensee agrees that if and/or when it or its subsidiary sublicenses the Licensed Product to a third party for commercialization, Licensee shall include provisions in the sublicense agreement to obligate the Sublicensee to continue the clinical development of the Licensed Product in a commercially reasonable manner, provided that Licensee and/or Sublicensee receives necessary regulatory approvals to continue development and reach the market for the Product in the Licensed Territory. The sublicense agreement shall also provide that in the event that the Sublicensee no longer uses commercially reasonable efforts to advance the clinical development of the Licensed Product for reasons other than safety, lack of efficacy or lack of necessary regulatory approvals, as provided above, Licensee shall have the right to either terminate the license agreement or convert an exclusive license to a non-exclusive license so that License may seek other sublicensees.

2022 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

(AS AMENDED AND RESTATED)

1. Purposes and Effective Date.

(a) Purposes. The MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, has two complementary purposes: (i) to attract and retain outstanding individuals to serve as officers, directors, employees, and consultants and (ii) to increase shareholder value. The Plan will provide participants incentives to increase shareholder value by offering the opportunity to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, receive monetary payments based on the value of such common stock, or receive other incentive compensation, on the potentially favorable terms that this Plan provides.

(b) Effective Date. The Plan originally became effective on June 15, 2022 (the “Effective Date”) and was originally adopted as the “MIRA1a Therapeutics, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan.” On October 6, 2022, the Company changed its corporate name to MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. This amendment and restatement of the Plan was adopted and approved by the Board and stockholders of the Company effective June 27, 2023 (the “Amendment Date”) and reflects the Company’s 1-for-5 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock that became effective on June 28, 2023. This Plan will terminate as provided in Section 15.

2. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Plan or in any Award agreement have the following meanings:

(c) “Affiliate” has the meaning ascribed to such term in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining those individuals to whom an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right may be granted, the term “Affiliate” means any entity that, directly or through one or more intermediaries, is controlled by or is under common control with, the Company within the meaning of Code Sections 414(b) or (c); provided that, in applying such provisions, the phrase “at least 20 percent” shall be used in place of “at least 80 percent” each place it appears therein.

(d) “Amendment Date” has the meaning in Section 1(b).

(e) “Applicable Exchange” means the Nasdaq Stock Market, the New York Stock Exchange or such other exchange or automated trading system on which the Stock is principally traded at the applicable time.

(iv) the consummation of a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (in one transaction or a series of related transactions within any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months), in each case, which requires approval of the shareholders of the Company, other than a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an entity at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by Persons in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to such sale.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if there is consummated any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the record holders of the common stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to own, directly or indirectly, in the same proportions as their ownership in the Company, an entity that owns all or substantially all of the assets or voting securities of the Company immediately following such transaction or series of transactions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Award is considered deferred compensation subject to the provisions of Code Section 409A, and if a payment under such Award is triggered upon a “Change of Control,” then the foregoing definition shall be deemed amended as necessary to comply with Code Section 409A.

(k) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Any reference to a specific provision of the Code includes any successor provision and the regulations promulgated under such provision.

(l) “Committee” means the Compensation Committee of the Board, any successor committee thereto or such other committee of the Board that is designated by the Board with the same or similar authority.

The method of determining Fair Market Value with respect to an Award shall be determined by the Administrator and may differ depending on whether Fair Market Value is in reference to the grant, exercise, vesting, settlement, or payout of an Award; provided that, if the Administrator does not specify a different method, the Fair Market Value of a Share as of a given date shall be the closing sale price as of the trading day immediately preceding the date as of which Fair Market Value is to be determined or, if there shall be no such sale on such date, the next preceding day on which such a sale shall have occurred. If the Stock is not traded on an established stock exchange, the Administrator shall determine in good faith the Fair Market Value in whatever manner it considers appropriate but based on objective criteria. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of the sale of Shares on the Applicable Exchange, the actual sale price shall be the Fair Market Value of such Shares.

The Administrator may establish other Performance Goals not listed in this Plan. Where applicable, the Performance Goals may be expressed, without limitation, in terms of attaining a specified level of the particular criterion or the attainment of an increase or decrease (expressed as absolute numbers or a percentage) in the particular criterion or achievement in relation to a peer group or other index.

3. Administration.

(a) Administration. In addition to the authority specifically granted to the Administrator in this Plan, the Administrator has full discretionary authority to administer this Plan, including but not limited to the authority to: (i) interpret the provisions of this Plan or any agreement covering an Award; (ii) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan; (iii) correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan, any Award or any agreement covering an Award in the manner and to the extent it deems desirable to carry this Plan or such Award into effect; and (iv) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. All Administrator determinations shall be made in the sole discretion of the Administrator and are final and binding on all interested parties.

(b) Delegation to Other Committees or Officers. To the extent applicable law permits, the Board may delegate to another committee of the Board, or the Committee may delegate to a subcommittee of the Committee or to one or more officers of the Company, any or all of their respective authority and responsibility as an Administrator of the Plan; provided that no such delegation is permitted with respect to Stock-based Awards made to Section 16 Participants at the time any such delegated authority or responsibility is exercised unless the delegation is to another committee of the Board consisting entirely of Non-Employee Directors. If the Board or the Committee has made such a delegation, then all references to the Administrator in this Plan include such other committee, subcommittee or one or more officers to the extent of such delegation.

(c) No Liability; Indemnification. No member of the Board or the Committee, and no officer or member of any other committee to whom a delegation under Section 3(b) has been made, will be liable for any act done, or determination made, by the individual in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each such individual as to any acts or omissions, or determinations made, in each case done or made in good faith, with respect to this Plan or any Award to the maximum extent that the law and the Company’s By-Laws permit.

4. Eligibility. The Administrator may designate any of the following as a Participant from time to time, to the extent of the Administrator’s authority: any officer or other employee of the Company or its Affiliates; any individual that the Company or an Affiliate has engaged to become an officer or employee; any consultant or advisor who provides services to the Company or its Affiliates; or any Director, including a Non-Employee Director. The Administrator’s designation of, or granting of an Award to, a Participant will not require the Administrator to designate such individual as a Participant or grant an Award to such individual at any future time. The Administrator’s granting of a particular type of Award to a Participant will not require the Administrator to grant any other type of Award to such individual.

5. Types of Awards. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator may grant any type of Award to any Participant it selects, but only employees of the Company or a Subsidiary may receive grants of Incentive Stock Options. Awards may be granted alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or (subject to the prohibition on repricing set forth in Section 15(e)) in substitution for any other Award (or any other award granted under another plan of the Company or any Affiliate, including the plan of an acquired entity).

6. Shares Reserved under this Plan.

(a) Plan Reserve. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17, as of the Amendment Date, an aggregate of 8,000,000 Shares are reserved for issuance under this Plan, all of which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. The aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan shall be increased annually on the first day of each fiscal year of the Company after the Amendment Date, commencing on the first day of the Company’s first fiscal year following the completion by the Company of an underwritten initial public offering, by a number of Shares equal to the least of: (i) 500,000 Shares, (ii) 5.0% of the number of outstanding shares of all classes of the Company’s common stock as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, or (iii) such other number of Shares as the Board may determine. The Shares reserved for issuance may be either authorized and unissued Shares or Shares reacquired at any time and now or hereafter held as treasury stock. The aggregate number of Shares reserved under this Section 6(a) shall be depleted on the date of grant of an Award by the maximum number of Shares, if any, that may be issuable under an Award as determined at the time of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Award that may be settled solely in cash shall not cause any depletion of the Plan’s Share reserve at the time such Award is granted.

(b) Replenishment of Shares Under this Plan. To the extent (i) an Award lapses, expires, terminates or is cancelled without the issuance of Shares under the Award (whether due currently or on a deferred basis) or is settled in cash, (ii) it is determined during or at the conclusion of the term of an Award that all or some portion of the Shares with respect to which the Award was granted will not be issuable on the basis that the conditions for such issuance will not be satisfied, (iii) Shares are forfeited under an Award (except as described below), (iv) Shares are issued under any Award and the Company subsequently reacquires them pursuant to rights reserved upon the issuance of the Shares, or (v) Shares are tendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of an Option or as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding Stock Appreciation Right or (vi) Shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy federal, state or local tax withholding obligations, then such Shares shall be recredited to the Plan’s reserve and may again be used for new Awards under this Plan, but Shares recredited to the Plan’s reserve pursuant to clause (iv), (v) or (vi) may not be issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options.

(c) Non-Employee Director Award Limitation. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7, the maximum number of Shares that may be granted during any fiscal year to any individual Non-Employee Director, in his or her capacity as a Non-Employee Director, shall not exceed that number of Shares that has a grant date fair value of, when added to any cash compensation received by such Non-Employee Director, $300,000.

7. Options. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each Option, including but not limited to: (a) whether the Option is an Incentive Stock Option that meets the requirements of Code Section 422, or a Nonqualified Stock Option that does not meet the requirements of Code Section 422; (b) the grant date, which may not be any day prior to the date that the Administrator approves the grant; (c) the number of Shares subject to the Option; (d) the exercise price, which may never be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option as determined on the date of grant, (e) the terms and conditions of vesting and exercise; (f) the term, except that an Option must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant; and (g) the manner of payment of the exercise price. In all other respects, the terms of any Incentive Stock Option should comply with the provisions of Code Section 422 except to the extent the Administrator determines otherwise. If an Option that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option fails to meet the requirements thereof, the Option shall automatically be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option to the extent of such failure. To the extent permitted by the Administrator, and subject to such procedures as the Administrator may specify, the payment of the exercise price of Options may be made by (w) delivery of cash or other Shares or other securities of the Company (including by attestation) having a then Fair Market Value equal to the purchase price of such Shares, (x) by delivery (including by fax) to the Company or its designated agent of an executed irrevocable option exercise form together with irrevocable instructions to a broker-dealer to sell or margin a sufficient portion of the Shares and deliver the sale or margin loan proceeds directly to the Company to pay for the exercise price, (y) by surrendering the right to receive Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant upon exercise of the Award having a Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total exercise price, or (z) by any combination of the methods set forth in clauses (w), (x) and/or (y). Except to the extent otherwise set forth in an Award agreement, a Participant shall have no rights as a holder of Stock as a result of the grant of an Option until the Option is exercised, the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes are paid and the Shares subject to the Option are issued thereunder.

8. Stock Appreciation Rights. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each SAR, including but not limited to: (a) whether the SAR is granted independently of an Option or relates to an Option; (b) the grant date, which may not be any day prior to the date that the Administrator approves the grant; (c) the number of Shares to which the SAR relates; (d) the grant price, which may never be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the SAR as determined on the date of grant; (e) the terms and conditions of exercise or maturity, including vesting; (f) the term, provided that an SAR must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant; and (g) whether the SAR will be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof.

9. Performance and Stock Awards. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each award of Shares, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares or Performance Units, including, but not limited to: (a) the number of Shares and/or units to which such Award relates; (b) whether, as a condition for the Participant to realize all or a portion of the benefit provided under the Award, one or more Performance Goals must be achieved during such period as the Administrator specifies; (c) the length of the vesting and/or performance period and, if different, the date on which payment of the benefit provided under the Award will be made; (d) with respect to Performance Units, whether to measure the value of each unit in relation to a designated dollar value or the Fair Market Value of one or more Shares; and (e) with respect to Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units, whether to settle such Awards in cash, in Shares (including Restricted Stock), or in a combination of cash and Shares; provided that no dividends or Dividend Equivalent Units shall be paid on Performance Shares or Performance Units prior to their vesting.

10. Annual Incentive Awards. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of an Annual Incentive Award, including but not limited to the Performance Goals, performance period, the potential amount payable, and the timing of payment; provided that the Administrator must require that payment of all or any portion of the amount subject to the Annual Incentive Award is contingent on the achievement or partial achievement of one or more Performance Goals during the period the Administrator specifies, although the Administrator may specify that all or a portion of the Performance Goals subject to an Award are deemed achieved upon a Participant’s death, Disability, or such other circumstances as the Administrator may specify; and provided further that any performance period applicable to an Annual Incentive Award must relate to a period of at least one year.

11. Long-Term Incentive Awards. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of a Long-Term Incentive Award, including, but not limited to, the Performance Goals, performance period (which must be more than one year), the potential amount payable, and the timing of payment; provided that the Administrator must require that payment of all or any portion of the amount subject to the Long-Term Incentive Award is contingent on the achievement or partial achievement of one or more Performance Goals during the period the Administrator specifies, although the Administrator may specify that all or a portion of the Performance Goals subject to an Award are deemed achieved upon a Participant’s death, Disability or retirement (as defined by the Administrator), or such other circumstances as the Administrator may specify.

12. Dividend Equivalent Units. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each award of Dividend Equivalent Units, including but not limited to whether: (a) such Award will be granted in tandem with another Award; (b) payment of the Award will be made concurrently with dividend payments or credited to an account for the Participant which provides for the deferral of such amounts until a stated time; (c) the Award will be settled in cash or Shares; and (d) as a condition for the Participant to realize all or a portion of the benefit provided under the Award, one or more Performance Goals must be achieved during such period as the Administrator specifies; provided that Dividend Equivalent Units may not be granted in connection with an Option or Stock Appreciation Right; and provided further that no Dividend Equivalent Unit granted in tandem with another Award shall include vesting provisions more favorable to the Participant than the vesting provisions, if any, to which the tandem Award is subject; and provided further that no Dividend Equivalent Unit relating to another Award shall provide for payment with respect such other Award prior to its vesting.

13. Other Stock-Based Awards. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator may grant to a Participant shares of unrestricted Stock as replacement for other compensation to which the Participant is entitled, such as in payment of director fees, in lieu of cash compensation, in exchange for cancellation of a compensation right, or as a bonus.

14. Transferability. Awards are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless and to the extent the Administrator allows a Participant to: (a) designate in writing a beneficiary to exercise the Award or receive payment under the Award after the Participant’s death; (b) transfer an Award to the former spouse of the Participant as required by a domestic relations order incident to a divorce; or (c) transfer an Award; provided, however, that with respect to clause (c) above the Participant may not receive consideration for such a transfer of an Award.

15. Termination and Amendment of Plan; Amendment, Modification or Cancellation of Awards.

(a) Term of Plan. Unless the Board earlier terminates this Plan pursuant to Section 15(b), this Plan will terminate on, and no further Awards may be granted under this Plan after, the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date.

(b) Termination and Amendment. The Board or the Administrator may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Plan at any time, subject to the following limitations:

(i) the Board must approve any amendment of this Plan to the extent the Company determines such approval is required by: (A) prior action of the Board, (B) applicable corporate law, or (C) any other applicable law;

(ii) shareholders must approve any amendment of this Plan to the extent the Company determines such approval is required by: (A) Section 16 of the Exchange Act, (B) the Code, (C) the listing requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which the Shares are then traded, or (D) any other applicable law; and

(iii) shareholders must approve any of the following Plan amendments: (A) an amendment to materially increase any number of Shares specified in Section 6(a) or the limits set forth in Section 6(b)(except as permitted by Section 17), or (B) an amendment that would diminish the protections afforded by Section 15(e).

(i) Except as provided in Section 15(e) and subject to the requirements of this Plan, the Administrator may modify, amend or cancel any Award; provided that, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Award agreement, any modification or amendment that materially diminishes the rights of the Participant, or the cancellation of an Award, shall be effective only if agreed to by the Participant or any other person(s) as may then have an interest in such Award, but the Administrator need not obtain Participant (or other interested party) consent for the modification, amendment or cancellation of an Award pursuant to the provisions of subsection (ii) or Section 17 or as follows: (A) to the extent the Administrator deems such action necessary to comply with any applicable law or the listing requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which the Shares are then traded; (B) to the extent the Administrator deems necessary to preserve favorable accounting or tax treatment of any Award for the Company; or (C) to the extent the Administrator determines that such action does not materially and adversely affect the value of an Award or that such action is in the best interest of the affected Participant (or any other person(s) as may then have an interest in the Award). Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, any such amendment shall be made in a manner that will enable an Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A to continue to be so exempt, or to enable an Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A to continue to so comply.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in an Award agreement, the Administrator shall have full power and authority to terminate or cause the Participant to forfeit the Award, and require the Participant to disgorge to the Company any gains attributable to the Award, if the Participant engages in any action constituting, as determined by the Administrator in its discretion, Cause for termination, or a breach of any Award agreement or any other agreement between the Participant and the Company or an Affiliate concerning noncompetition, nonsolicitation, confidentiality, trade secrets, intellectual property, nondisparagement or similar obligations.

(iii) Any Awards granted pursuant to this Plan, and any Stock issued, or cash paid pursuant to an Award, shall be subject to any recoupment or clawback policy that is adopted by, or any recoupment or similar requirement otherwise made applicable by law, regulation or listing standards to, the Company from time to time.

(d) Survival of Authority and Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authority of the Board and the Administrator under this Section 15 and to otherwise administer the Plan with respect to then-outstanding Awards will extend beyond the date of this Plan’s termination. In addition, termination of this Plan will not affect the rights of Participants with respect to Awards previously granted to them, and all unexpired Awards will continue in force and effect after termination of this Plan except as they may lapse or be terminated by their own terms and conditions.

(e) Repricing and Backdating Prohibited. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, and except for the adjustments provided for in Section 17, at such time as the Company’s common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or New York Stock Exchange, neither the Administrator nor any other person may (i) cancel outstanding Options or SARs in exchange for Options or SARs with an exercise or grant price that is less than the exercise or grant price of the original Options or SARs; or (ii) cancel outstanding Options or SARs with an exercise or grant price above the current Fair Market Value of a Share in exchange for cash or other securities. In addition, the Administrator may not make a grant of an Option or SAR with a grant date that is effective prior to the date the Administrator takes action to approve such Award.

(f) Foreign Participation. To assure the viability of Awards granted to Participants employed or residing in foreign countries, the Administrator may provide for such special terms as it may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy, accounting or custom. Moreover, the Administrator may approve such supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of, this Plan as it determines is necessary or appropriate for such purposes. Any such amendment, restatement, or alternative versions that the Administrator approves for purposes of using this Plan in a foreign country will not affect the terms of this Plan for any other country. In addition, all such supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions must comply with the provisions of Section 15(b)(ii).

16. Taxes.

(a) Withholding. In the event the Company or one of its Affiliates is required to withhold any Federal, state or local taxes or other amounts in respect of any income recognized by a Participant as a result of the grant, vesting, payment or settlement of an Award or disposition of any Shares acquired under an Award, the Company may deduct (or require an Affiliate to deduct) from any payments of any kind otherwise due the Participant cash, or with the consent of the Administrator, Shares otherwise deliverable or vesting under an Award, to satisfy such tax or other obligations. Alternatively, the Company or its Affiliate may require such Participant to pay to the Company or its Affiliate, in cash, promptly on demand, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company or its Affiliate regarding the payment to the Company or its Affiliate of the aggregate amount of any such taxes and other amounts. If Shares are deliverable upon exercise or payment of an Award, then the Administrator may permit a Participant to satisfy all or a portion of the Federal, state and local withholding tax obligations arising in connection with such Award by electing to (i) have the Company or its Affiliate withhold Shares otherwise issuable under the Award, (ii) tender back Shares received in connection with such Award or (iii) deliver other previously owned Shares, in each case having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount to be withheld; provided that the amount to be withheld in Shares may not exceed the total maximum statutory tax withholding obligations associated with the transaction to the extent needed for the Company and its Affiliates to avoid an accounting charge. If an election is provided, the election must be made on or before the date as of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined and otherwise as the Administrator requires. In any case, the Company and its Affiliates may defer making payment or delivery under any Award if any such tax may be pending unless and until indemnified to its satisfaction.

(b) No Guarantee of Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Plan to the contrary, the Company does not guarantee to any Participant or any other Person with an interest in an Award that (i) any Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A shall be so exempt, (ii) any Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A or Code Section 422 shall so comply, or (iii) any Award shall otherwise receive a specific tax treatment under any other applicable tax law, nor in any such case will the Company or any Affiliate be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual with respect to the tax consequences of any Award.

17. Adjustment and Change of Control Provisions.

(a) Adjustment of Shares. If (i) the Company shall at any time be involved in a merger or other transaction in which the Shares are changed or exchanged; (ii) the Company shall subdivide or combine the Shares or the Company shall declare a dividend payable in Shares, other securities (other than stock purchase rights issued pursuant to a shareholder rights agreement) or other property; (iii) the Company shall effect a cash dividend the amount of which, on a per Share basis, exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share at the time the dividend is declared, or the Company shall effect any other dividend or other distribution on the Shares in the form of cash, or a repurchase of Shares, that the Board determines by resolution is special or extraordinary in nature or that is in connection with a transaction that the Company characterizes publicly as a recapitalization or reorganization involving the Shares; or (iv) any other event shall occur, which, in the case of this clause (iv), in the judgment of the Administrator necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then the Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, adjust any or all of: (A) the number and type of Shares subject to this Plan (including the number and type of Shares described in Sections 6(a) and 6(c)) and which may after the event be made the subject of Awards; (B) the number and type of Shares subject to outstanding Awards; (C) the grant, purchase, or exercise price with respect to any Award; and (D) the Performance Goals of an Award. In any such case, the Administrator may also (or in lieu of the foregoing) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award in exchange for the cancellation of all or a portion of the Award (without the consent of the holder of an Award) in an amount determined by the Administrator effective at such time as the Administrator specifies (which may be the time such transaction or event is effective). However, in each case, with respect to Awards of Incentive Stock Options, no such adjustment may be authorized to the extent that such authority would cause this Plan to violate Code Section 422(b). Further, the number of Shares subject to any Award payable or denominated in Shares must always be a whole number. In any event, previously granted Options or SARs are subject to only such adjustments as are necessary to maintain the relative proportionate interest the Options and SARs represented immediately prior to any such event and to preserve, without exceeding, the value of such Options or SARs.

Without limitation, in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or other similar corporate transaction or event, whether or not constituting a Change of Control (other than any such transaction in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which the outstanding Stock is not being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof), the Administrator may substitute, on an equitable basis as the Administrator determines, for each Share then subject to an Award and the Shares subject to this Plan (if the Plan will continue in effect), the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Stock are or will be entitled in respect of each Share pursuant to the transaction.

(b) Issuance or Assumption. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, and without affecting the number of Shares otherwise reserved or available under this Plan, in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization, the Administrator may authorize the issuance or assumption of awards under this Plan upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate.

(i) In order to preserve a Participant’s rights under an Award in the event of a Change of Control, the Administrator in its discretion may, at the time an Award is made or at any time thereafter, take one or more of the following actions: (a) provide for the acceleration of any time period, or the deemed achievement of any Performance Goals, relating to the exercise or realization of the Award; (b) provide for the purchase or cancellation of the Award for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received upon the exercise or realization of the Award had the Award been currently exercisable or payable (or the cancellation of Awards in exchange for no payment to the extent that no cash or other property would be received upon the exercise or realization of the Award in such circumstances); (c) adjust the terms of the Award in the manner determined by the Administrator to reflect the Change of Control; (d) cause the Award to be assumed, or new right substituted therefor, by another entity; or (e) make such other provision as the Administrator may consider equitable and in the best interests of the Company.

(ii) Except to the extent the Participant has in effect an employment or similar agreement with the Company or any Affiliate or is subject to a policy that provides for a more favorable result to the Participant upon a Change of Control, in the event that the Company’s legal counsel or accounting advisor determines that any payment, benefit or transfer by the Company under this Plan or any other plan, agreement, or arrangement to or for the benefit of the Participant (in the aggregate, the “Total Payments”) would be subject to the tax (“Excise Tax”) imposed by Code Section 4999 but for this subsection (d), then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Total Payments shall be delivered either (i) in full or (ii) in an amount such that the value of the aggregate Total Payments that the Participant is entitled to receive shall be One Dollar ($1.00) less than the maximum amount that the Participant may receive without being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of clause (i) or (ii) results in the receipt by the Participant of the greatest benefit on an after-tax basis (taking into account applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax). In the event that clause (ii) results in a greater after-tax benefit to the Participants, payments or benefits included in the Total Payments shall be reduced or eliminated by applying the following principles, in order: (A) the payment or benefit with the higher ratio of the parachute payment value to present economic value (determined using reasonable actuarial assumptions) shall be reduced or eliminated before a payment or benefit with a lower ratio; (B) the payment or benefit with the later possible payment date shall be reduced or eliminated before a payment or benefit with an earlier payment date; and (C) cash payments shall be reduced prior to non-cash benefits; provided that if the foregoing order of reduction or elimination would violate Code Section 409A, then the reduction shall be made pro rata among the payments or benefits included in the Total Payments (on the basis of the relative present value of the parachute payments).

(d) Certain Modifications. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 17, the Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion, amend, modify or rescind the provisions of this Section 17 if it determines that the operation of this Section 17 may prevent a transaction in which the Company, a Subsidiary or any Affiliate is a party from receiving desired tax treatment, including without limitation requiring that each Participant receive a replacement or substitute Award issued by the surviving or acquiring corporation.

18. Stock Transfer Restrictions and Repurchase Right.

(a) Restriction on Transfer. Shares issued under the Plan may not be sold or otherwise disposed of except as permitted by the Company. As a condition to the receipt of Shares hereunder, the Participant (or individual entitled to receive Shares following the Participant’s death) may be required to execute a stockholder’s agreement or other agreement required by the Board.

(b) Restrictions; Legends. All Shares delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions as the Company may deem advisable, and the Company may cause a legend or legends to be put on any certificates for shares to make appropriate references to such restrictions.

(c) Right to Purchase Shares. Pursuant to the provisions of this Section 18(c), the Company shall have the right (the “Purchase Right”), but not the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares acquired by the Participant under this Plan upon the occurrence of any of the following events (a “Trigger Date”):

(i) the Participant’s separation from employment or service from the Company and its Affiliates, or

(ii) the Participant’s attempted or purported sale, assignment, exchange, disposition, distributions, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or other disposition or alienation of Shares acquired under the Plan without the Company’s prior written consent.

The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Shares subject to such Purchase Right shall be the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the applicable Trigger Date, unless (A) the Participant’s employment has been terminated for Cause, (B) the Company determines that the Participant’s employment could have been terminated for Cause, or (C) the Participant breaches any restrictive covenants set forth in any agreement by and between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, then in each case the purchase price shall be the lower of (x) the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the applicable Trigger Date and (y) the cost paid by the Participant to acquire the Shares.

The Company may exercise its Purchase Right by giving written notice thereof to the Participant within one (1) year after the Trigger Date (the one (1)-year period in each case, the “Call Period”) of the number of Shares with respect to which the Purchase Right is being exercised, and the Company intends that such date shall not be earlier than the first date on which the Purchase Price can be set without changing the accounting treatment for the acquisition of the Shares being repurchased from an equity-based accounting treatment to a liability-based accounting treatment (as contemplated by FASB ASC Topic 718 or any successor thereto). The Company shall promptly determine the Purchase Price for the Shares subject to the Purchase Right and shall notify the Participant of such determination. The Company may elect to pay all or any portion of such Purchase Price in cash; provided that if the Company does not elect to pay the entire Purchase Price in cash, the Company shall, at a minimum, pay to the Participant at least ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price in cash, and shall deliver to the Participant a promissory note with a principal amount equal to the remainder of the Purchase Price, which promissory note shall provide that: (A) the principal shall be paid in no more than five (5) equal annual installments commencing one (1) year from the delivery of such promissory note, (B) interest on the unpaid principal amount shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the prime interest rate interest charged by the principal bank with which the Company conducts business as determined on the date the promissory note is issued, and shall be payable together with and in addition to each principal payment, and (C) the Company shall have the right, without penalty, to prepay all or any portion of the principal and accrued interest owing thereunder at any time.

Upon the delivery of the payment and/or the promissory note described herein by the Company, the Participant shall take all actions necessary, and execute all related documents specified by the Company as being reasonably necessary to consummate the sale of the Shares to the Company, and, by accepting an award under this Plan, the Participant appoints the Company’s Secretary as his or her true and lawful attorney-in-fact to exercise and deliver all such instruments, documents and writings, and to take all such actions as shall be required to consummate the sale of the Shares to the Company as contemplated in this Section. Such power is a special Power of Attorney coupled with an interest, is irrevocable, and shall run with the shares to any subsequent owners thereof.

(d) Termination Upon Initial Public Offering. The Company’s right to exercise its repurchase rights under Section 18(c) shall terminate upon the closing of the Company’s first underwritten public offering of equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act.

19. Drag-Along Rights.

(a) If the Board or a group of shareholders that, in the aggregate, owns a majority of the voting power of the Company, receives an offer in a transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which a third party proposes to acquire all of the equity securities of the Company (a “Drag-Along Transaction”), any shareholder or any group of shareholders of the Company that, in the aggregate, owns a majority of the voting power of the Company (collectively, the “Drag- Along Shareholder”) shall have the right, at its option, to require the other shareholders of the Company, including any Participant who acquires Shares under this Plan (each such shareholder, a “Dragged Shareholder,” and collectively with any other Dragged Shareholder, the “Dragged Shareholders”), and each Dragged Shareholder hereby agrees, whether such Drag- Along Transaction is structured as a transfer of equity securities, merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise, to transfer all of such Dragged Shareholder’s equity securities on substantially the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the Drag-Along Shareholder; provided that the price per share for each equity security to be sold in such Drag-Along Transaction shall be determined by first allocation a portion of the aggregate consideration to be paid by the buyer(s) in such Drag-Along Transaction to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon and then allocation the remainder of such aggregate consideration to the equity securities to be sold in such Drag-Along Transaction ratably on an as-converted basis.

(b) Each Dragged Shareholder shall reasonably cooperate in, and shall take all actions requested by the Drag-Along Shareholder that are reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate, the Drag-Along Transaction, including: (i) to the extent applicable, voting its equity securities (or executing and delivering any written consents in lieu thereof) in favor of the Drag- Along Transaction and all actions deemed reasonably necessary by the Drag- Along Shareholder in connection with the Drag-Along Transaction; (ii) if applicable, taking all actions necessary to cause the Board to approve the Drag-Along Transaction; and (iii) entering into definitive agreements as are customary for the nature of the proposed Drag-Along Transaction and any ancillary agreements with respect thereto, and using commercially reasonable efforts (including indemnification obligations on a ratable basis) to cause the transactions contemplated by such definitive agreements and ancillary agreements to be consummated.

(c) Without limitation of the foregoing, each shareholder waives any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights it may have in connection with any sale of the Company under applicable law that is approved or instituted pursuant to this Section 19.

(d) The Drag-Along Shareholder shall provide written notice of such Drag-Along Transaction to each Dragged Shareholder (a “Drag-Along Transaction Notice”). The Drag-Along Transaction Notice shall identify the proposed transferee, the consideration for which a transfer is proposed to be made and all other material terms and conditions of the Drag-Along Transaction. Each Dragged Shareholder shall be required to participate in the Drag-Along Transaction on the terms and conditions set forth in the Drag-Along Transaction Notice.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 19, there shall be no liability on the part of the Drag-Along Shareholder to the Company or the Dragged Shareholders if the Drag-Along Transaction is not consummated for whatever reason, regardless of whether the Drag-Along Shareholder has delivered a Drag-Along Transaction Notice. The decision to effect a Drag-Along Transaction is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Drag-Along Shareholder.

(f) The foregoing shall not affect the rights of the Company or the Administrator under Section 17 (or elsewhere) of this Plan.

20. Miscellaneous.

(a) Other Terms and Conditions. The Administrator may provide in any Award agreement such other provisions (whether or not applicable to the Award granted to any other Participant) as the Administrator determines appropriate to the extent not otherwise prohibited by the terms of the Plan.

(b) Employment and Service. The issuance of an Award shall not confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continued employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate, or the right to continue as a Director. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, for purposes of the Plan and all Awards, the following rules shall apply:

(i) a Participant who transfers employment between the Company and its Affiliates, or between Affiliates, will not be considered to have terminated employment;

(ii) a Participant who ceases to be a Non-Employee Director because he or she becomes an employee of the Company, or an Affiliate shall not be considered to have ceased service as a Director with respect to any Award until such Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates;

(iii) a Participant who ceases to be employed by the Company or an Affiliate and immediately thereafter becomes a Non-Employee Director, a non-employee director of an Affiliate, or a consultant to the Company or any Affiliate shall not be considered to have terminated employment until such Participant’s service as a director of, or consultant to, the Company and its Affiliates has ceased; and

(iv) a Participant employed by an Affiliate will be considered to have terminated employment when such entity ceases to be an Affiliate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of an Award that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A, if a Participant’s termination of employment or service triggers the payment of such nonqualified deferred compensation under such Award, then the Participant will be deemed to have terminated employment or service upon his or her “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan or an Award to the contrary, if any Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A as of the date of his or her “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, then, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Code Section 409A, any payment of nonqualified deferred compensation made to the Participant on account of such separation from service shall not be made before a date that is six (6) months after the date of the separation from service.

(c) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares or other securities may be issued or delivered pursuant to this Plan, and the Administrator may determine whether cash, other securities or other property will be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or other securities, or whether such fractional Shares or other securities or any rights to fractional Shares or other securities will be canceled, terminated, or otherwise eliminated.

(d) Unfunded Plan; Awards Not Includable for Benefits Purposes. This Plan is unfunded and does not create, and should not be construed to create a trust or separate fund with respect to this Plan’s benefits. This Plan does not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person. To the extent any person holds any rights by virtue of an Award granted under this Plan, such rights are no greater than the rights of the Company’s general unsecured creditors. Income recognized by a Participant pursuant to an Award shall not be included in the determination of benefits under any employee pension benefit plan (as such term is defined in Section 3(2) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) or group insurance or other benefit plans applicable to the Participant which are maintained by the Company or any Affiliate, except as may be provided under the terms of such plans or determined by resolution of the Board.

(e) Requirements of Law and Securities Exchange. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares in connection with an Award are subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or any award agreement, the Company has no liability to deliver any Shares under this Plan or make any payment unless such delivery or payment would comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity, and unless and until the Participant has taken all actions required by the Company in connection therewith. The Company may impose such restrictions on any Shares issued under the Plan as the Company determines necessary or desirable to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations or the requirements of any national securities exchanges.

(f) Governing Law; Venue. This Plan, and all agreements under this Plan, will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without reference to any conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any award agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Plan, any Award or any award agreement, may only be brought and determined in a court sitting in the State of Florida.

(g) Limitations on Actions. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any award agreement, must be brought within one (1) year after the day the complaining party first knew or should have known of the events giving rise to the complaint.

(h) Construction. Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and wherever any words are used in the singular or plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply. Titles of sections are for general information only, and this Plan is not to be construed with reference to such titles. The title, label or characterization of an Award in an award agreement or in the Company’s public filings or other disclosures shall not be determinative as to which specific Award type is represented by the award agreement. Instead, the Administrator may determine which specific type(s) of Award(s) is (are) represented by any award agreement, at the time such Award is granted or at any time thereafter. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, in the case of any Award that includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), the Award holder’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment.

(i) Severability. If any provision of this Plan or any award agreement or any Award (a) is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or (b) would cause this Plan, any award agreement or any Award to violate or be disqualified under any law the Administrator deems applicable, then such provision should be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Administrator, materially altering the intent of this Plan, award agreement or Award, then such provision should be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of this Plan, such award agreement and such Award will remain in full force and effect.
