Summit Therapeutics proposes 1B more authorized shares

The proposal is intended to satisfy Summit's December 31, 2026 contractual deadline for authorizing shares needed for preferred-stock conversion.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Summit Therapeutics Inc. is asking stockholders to approve a charter amendment that would increase authorized common shares by 1,000,000,000, from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000. The board unanimously recommends a FOR vote at the virtual special meeting on November 4, 2026; approval requires a majority of votes cast.

As of October 1, 2026, Summit had 799,726,418 common shares outstanding and 66,727,073 authorized, unreserved shares available, excluding additional shares issuable under the ATM program or private placement. The amendment is intended in part to permit conversion of Class A Preferred Stock issued in a private placement that closed October 5, 2026, for $2.0 billion in gross proceeds to Summit; 108,955,369 common shares are issuable on conversion after any applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period or extension expires or terminates and the amendment becomes effective.

Summit agreed to take all actions necessary to amend its charter by December 31, 2026. If the required increase is not effective by April 5, 2028, Summit must redeem all outstanding Class A Preferred Stock for cash at a price reflecting the then-prevailing market value of the underlying common stock. The amendment itself would not immediately dilute holders, though future issuance could reduce their voting power and percentage interests.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

The appendix records that stockholders approved the charter amendment on November 4, 2026; this advances the increase in authorized common shares past the vote, but the amendment becomes effective only when filed with Delaware.

Key Terms

Conversion Ratio, at the market, broker non-vote, preemptive rights, +1 more

5 terms

Conversion Ratio financial

"1,000 shares (the Conversion Ratio) of our common stock"

The conversion ratio is the number of common shares an investor receives when a convertible security (like a bond or preferred share) or an exchangeable instrument is turned into ordinary stock. It matters because it tells investors how much ownership or dilution will occur — similar to knowing how many slices you get when you trade in a coupon — and directly affects the value you get from the convertible and the company’s future share count.

at the market financial

"under the at the market equity offering program"

“At the market” describes a method companies use to sell newly issued shares directly into the open market at whatever the current trading price is, usually through a broker who places shares in small amounts over time. Investors care because it can reduce each existing shareholder’s ownership percentage and increase the number of shares outstanding, while giving the company a flexible, quick way to raise cash — like adding single seats to a train instead of buying a whole new carriage.

broker non-vote technical

"A broker non-vote occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee"

A broker non-vote happens when a brokerage firm holds shares in street name for a client but does not cast a ballot on a particular shareholder item because the broker lacks discretionary authority to vote that matter. Think of it like a person who owns a ticket but the ticket-holder refuses to vote on some issues; the share counts for ownership but not for that vote, which can affect whether proposals reach the required number of votes or a quorum.

preemptive rights financial

"Our common stock has no preemptive rights to purchase common stock"

A shareholder's preemptive rights are contractual or legal rights to buy new shares first when a company issues more stock, so existing owners can maintain their percentage ownership and voting power. Think of it like getting first dibs on extra slices when a pie is cut again: it limits dilution of ownership and influence by letting current holders purchase enough new shares to keep their stake from shrinking.

street name financial

"your shares are held in street name"

A "street name" is a way that stocks or other financial assets are registered under a broker's name rather than directly in an individual investor's name. This allows for easier buying, selling, and transferring of the assets, much like how a library might hold books on behalf of many readers. For investors, using a street name simplifies transactions and helps maintain privacy, but it also means the broker is the official record holder of ownership.

FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

How many shares does SMMT propose to authorize?

The amendment would increase authorized common stock by 1,000,000,000 shares, from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000. This changes authorized capacity; the amendment itself would not immediately dilute current stockholders.

Why does SMMT want more authorized common shares?

Summit says the additional authorization is intended in part to provide for conversion of Class A Preferred Stock into 108,955,369 common shares. Summit also cites its ATM program, under which up to $354.3 million of common stock remained to be sold as of October 1, 2026, and other potential corporate uses.

When would Summit have to pay for a preferred-stock redemption if the amendment misses its 2028 deadline?

If the required increase is not effective by April 5, 2028, Summit must redeem all outstanding Class A Preferred Stock for cash at a price reflecting the then-prevailing market value of the underlying common stock. Payment is due on or before the fifth business day after that deadline.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the shares you own. The person you designate is your “proxy,” and you give the proxy authority to vote your shares by submitting the enclosed proxy card, or if available, voting by telephone or the Internet. We have designated Robert W. Duggan, Dr. Mahkam Zanganeh, and Manmeet Soni to serve as proxies for the Special Meeting.

What matters will be voted on at the Special Meeting?

The following matters will be voted on at the Special Meeting:

Proposal 1: To approve an amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock by 1,000,000,000 (from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000) (“Proposal 1”); and

Table of Contents

How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote?

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote:

• “FOR” the approval of the authorization of the Board of Directors to amend the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock by 1,000,000,000 (from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000), as described in Proposal 1.

Will there be any other items of business on the agenda?

If any other items of business or other matters are properly brought before the Special Meeting, your proxy gives discretionary authority to the persons named on the proxy card with respect to those items of business or other matters. The persons named on the proxy card intend to vote the proxy in accordance with their best judgment. Our Board of Directors does not intend to bring any other matters to be voted on at the Special Meeting. We are not currently aware of any other matters that may properly be presented by others for action at the Special Meeting.

Who is entitled to vote at the Special Meeting?

Holders of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“common stock”) at the close of business on October 1, 2026, which we refer to as the record date, may vote at the Special Meeting. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock held as of the record date. Shares of common stock that are present virtually during the Special Meeting constitute shares of common stock represented “in person.”

A complete list of these stockholders will be available at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SMMT2026SM for ten days prior to the Special Meeting. A stockholder may examine the list for any legally valid purpose related to the Special Meeting.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Stockholders of Record. You are a stockholder of record if at the close of business on the record date your shares were registered directly in your name with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., our transfer agent. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or to vote on your own behalf at the Special Meeting.

Beneficial Owner. You are a beneficial owner if, at the close of business on the record date, your shares were held by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee and not in your name. Being a beneficial owner means that, like many of our stockholders, your shares are held in “street name.” As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote your shares by following the voting instructions your broker, bank or other nominee provides. However, since a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares of our common stock at the Special Meeting unless you follow your broker’s procedures for obtaining a legal proxy. Please see “What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?” for more information.

Do I have to do anything in advance if I plan to attend the Special Meeting?

The Special Meeting will be a virtual audio meeting of stockholders, which will be conducted via live audio webcast. You are entitled to participate in the Special Meeting only if you were a holder of our common stock as of the close of business on October 1, 2026 or if you hold a valid proxy for the Special Meeting.

To participate in the Special Meeting, you will need the control number included on your notice or proxy card. The live audio webcast will begin promptly at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 10:45 a.m. Eastern Time and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.

How do I vote and what are the voting deadlines?

Stockholders of Record. If you are a stockholder of record, there are four ways for you to vote your shares:

• By mail. If you received printed proxy materials, you may submit your vote by completing, signing and dating each proxy card received and returning it in the prepaid envelope. Sign your name exactly as it appears on the proxy card. Your completed, signed and dated proxy card must be received prior to the Special Meeting.

• By telephone. You may vote your shares by telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903. Have your proxy card in hand when you call and then follow the directions. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to return a proxy card by mail. Telephone voting is available 24 hours a day. Votes submitted by telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 3, 2026.

• Via the Internet. You may vote your shares via the Internet by visiting www.proxyvote.com. The proxy card will include detailed instructions to vote via the Internet. If you vote via the Internet, you do not need to return a proxy card by mail. Internet voting is available 24 hours a day. Votes submitted via the Internet must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 3, 2026.

• Attend the Special Meeting. You may vote at the Special Meeting by following the instructions at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SMMT2026SM. You must have your notice or proxy card in hand when you visit the website.

Beneficial Owners. If you are a beneficial owner of your shares, you will receive voting instructions from the broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares. You should follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or nominee in order to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. The availability of telephone and Internet voting will depend on the voting process of the broker, bank or nominee. Shares held beneficially may be voted at the Special Meeting only if you obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank or nominee giving you the right to vote the shares.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we request that you vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. To vote, you will need the control number. The control number will be included in the notice or on your proxy card if you are a stockholder of record, or included with your voting instructions received from your broker, bank or other nominee if you hold your shares of common stock in a “street name”.

Internet proxy voting is provided to allow you to vote your shares online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions. Please be aware that you must bear any costs associated with your Internet access.

Table of Contents

Can I revoke or change my vote after I submit my proxy?

Stockholders of Record. If you are a stockholder of record, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the Special Meeting by:

• signing and returning a new proxy card with a later date;

• entering a new vote by telephone or via the Internet by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 3, 2026;

• delivering a written revocation to Manmeet Soni, our Principal Financial Officer at Summit Therapeutics Inc., 601 Brickell Key Drive, Suite 1000, Miami, FL 33131 by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on November 3, 2026; or

• following the instructions at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SMMT2026SM.

Beneficial Owners. If you are a beneficial owner of your shares, you must contact the broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares and follow their instructions on changing your vote.

What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?

Stockholders of Record. If you are a stockholder of record and you submit a properly executed proxy, but you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted:

• “FOR” the approval of the amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock by 1,000,000,000 (from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000); and

• In the discretion of the named proxies regarding any other matters properly presented for vote at the Special Meeting.

Beneficial Owners. If you are a beneficial owner and you do not provide your broker, bank or other nominee with voting instructions, your broker, bank or other nominee will determine if it has the discretionary authority to vote on the particular matter. Under applicable regulations, brokers, banks and other nominees may have discretion to vote your shares on Proposal 1 which is a “routine” matter. Therefore, if you do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee, your broker, bank or other nominee may vote your shares on Proposal 1.

What constitutes a quorum, and why is a quorum required?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to be present at the Special Meeting for the Special Meeting to be properly held under our bylaws and Delaware law. The presence (including by proxy) of a majority of all issued and outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting will constitute a quorum at the Special Meeting. As of the close of business on the record date of October 1, 2026, we had 799,726,418 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, meaning that 399,863,210 shares of common stock must be represented at the Special Meeting to constitute a quorum.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum if you submit a proxy or vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will also count towards the quorum requirement. If there is not a quorum, a majority of the shares present at the Special Meeting may adjourn the meeting to a later date.

What is the effect of an abstention or a broker non-vote?

Abstentions. If you are a stockholder of record and you vote ABSTAIN on Proposal 1, your abstention will not be considered a vote cast affirmatively or negatively on the matter. In all cases, if you are a stockholder of record and you vote ABSTAIN, your shares will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Special Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner holding shares through a nominee, you may instruct your nominee that you wish to abstain from voting on the proposal, and your vote will have the same effect as described above.

Table of Contents

Broker Non-Votes. Brokers, banks or other nominees who hold shares of our common stock for a beneficial owner have the discretion to vote on routine proposals when they have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner at least ten days prior to the Special Meeting. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner and does not have the discretion to direct the voting of the shares. Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Special Meeting but will not be counted as votes cast affirmatively or negatively on Proposal 1. Thus, a broker non-vote will not affect the outcome of the vote on the proposal. Broker non-votes are not anticipated to be received since Proposal 1 is considered a routine matter.

What is the vote required for the proposal?

Proposal		Vote Required		Broker Discretionary Voting Allowed
Proposal 1: Approval of the amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock.		The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of all the stock present or represented at the Special Meeting pursuant to Section 242(d)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.		Yes

With respect to Proposal 1, you may vote FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN. If you ABSTAIN from voting on this proposal, your shares will not be counted toward the tabulation of votes cast on the proposal and will have no effect on the proposal. Shares represented by executed, but unmarked, proxies will be voted “FOR” the approval of Proposal 1.

Who will count the votes?

Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) has been engaged to receive and tabulate stockholder votes. Broadridge will separately tabulate FOR and AGAINST votes, abstentions, and broker non-votes. Broadridge will also certify the election results and perform any other acts required by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Who is paying for the costs of this proxy solicitation?

We will bear the entire cost of proxy solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing, mailing and distribution of the proxy materials. Solicitations may be made personally or by mail, facsimile, telephone, messenger, or via the Internet by our personnel who will not receive additional compensation for such solicitation. In addition, we will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding the proxy materials to stockholders. We have not engaged a third party to assist us in soliciting proxies.

How can I find the results of the Special Meeting?

Preliminary results will be announced at the Special Meeting. Final results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and published on our website after the Special Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one set of printed materials?

If you receive more than one set of printed materials, your shares may be registered in more than one name and/or are registered in different accounts.

7

Table of Contents

Please follow the voting instructions on each set of printed materials, as applicable, to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?

The SEC has adopted rules that allow a company to deliver a single proxy statement to an address shared by two or more of its stockholders. This method of delivery, known as “householding,” permits us to realize significant cost savings, reduces the amount of duplicate information stockholders receive, and reduces the environmental impact of printing and mailing documents to our stockholders. Under this process, stockholders that share an address with another stockholder will receive only one copy of our proxy materials and any additional proxy materials that are delivered until such time as one or more of these stockholders notifies us that they want to receive separate copies. Any stockholders who object to or wish to begin householding may notify our Investor Relations Department at investors@smmttx.com or Investor Relations, Summit Therapeutics Inc., 601 Brickell Key Drive, Suite 1000, Miami, FL 33131, or by calling (305) 203-2034, and we will promptly deliver such materials to you.

Beneficial owners may contact their broker, bank or other nominee to request information about householding.

What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?

Stockholder Proposals for 2027 Annual Meeting

PROPOSAL 1

AMENDMENT TO THE CHARTER TO INCREASE

THE AUTHORIZED NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

Our Board of Directors has unanimously adopted, and is submitting for stockholder approval, an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, dated September 18, 2020, as amended by that Amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, dated July 27, 2022, and by that Amendment No. 2 to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, dated January 19, 2023 (the “Charter”) to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock by 1,000,000,000 (from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000).

The additional shares of common stock to be authorized for issuance under the Charter would be a part of the existing class of common stock and, if and when issued, would have the same rights and privileges as the common stock presently issued and outstanding. Our common stock has no preemptive rights to purchase common stock or other securities. The Charter Amendment will become effective upon its filing and recording with the Secretary of State of Delaware.

Form of the Amendment

The Board of Directors has deemed the Charter Amendment advisable and in the best interests of the Company and is accordingly submitting it to stockholders for approval. The Charter Amendment would revise the Charter by replacing the first paragraph of its Article FOURTH with the following language:

“FOURTH: The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 2,020,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) 20,000,000 shares of Preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”).”

The full text of the proposed Charter Amendment is set forth in Appendix A of this Proxy Statement. No changes are proposed to the number of authorized shares of preferred stock.

Reasons for the Increase in the Number of Authorized Shares

The proposed increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock is intended to ensure that we will continue to have an adequate number of authorized and unissued shares of common stock for future use. As of October 1, 2026, we had 799,726,418 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and an additional 16,026,099 shares of common stock in the aggregate reserved for future issuance under granted and outstanding equity incentive compensation awards, shares available for issuance under our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, as inducement to new employees in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) and our 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. We may also issue up to an additional $354.3 million of shares of common stock that are remaining to be sold as of October 1, 2026 under the “at the market” equity offering program pursuant to the distribution agreement, dated July 23, 2026, with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “ATM Program”). Additionally, as described in more detail below, in September 2026 we entered into a private placement transaction, which transaction closed on October 5, 2026, pursuant to which we issued shares of preferred stock that are convertible into an aggregate of 108,955,369 shares of common stock, subject to certain conditions. As a result, as of October 1, 2026, we had 66,727,073 shares of authorized, unreserved common stock available for issuance, without giving effect to any additional shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the ATM Program or the Private Placement (as defined below). We do not currently have sufficient shares of common stock available to permit the conversion of such Preferred Shares (as defined below) into shares of our common stock.

As previously disclosed on our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 29, 2026, on September 28, 2026, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with AstraZeneca Holdings B.V. (the “Investor”), a subsidiary of AstraZeneca plc, for the issuance and sale by us of

Table of Contents

108,955.3686 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of our newly designated Class A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $18,356.14 per Preferred Share, for aggregate gross proceeds to us of $2.0 billion (the “Private Placement”). Each share of Class A Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares (the “Conversion Ratio”) of our common stock, for an aggregate amount of 108,955,369 shares of common stock as provided in the Certificate of Designation (as defined below). The closing of the Private Placement occurred on October 5, 2026. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to, among other things, take all actions necessary to amend the Charter to increase the number of shares of common stock we are authorized to issue to a number sufficient to permit the issuance in full of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares by no later than December 31, 2026. The Charter Amendment submitted for stockholder approval in this proposal is intended to satisfy the foregoing obligation under the Purchase Agreement, among other future uses.

In connection with the Private Placement, on September 28, 2026, we filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Certificate of Designation”). The Certificate of Designation authorizes the issuance of 108,956 shares of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Preferred Shares are convertible at the option of the holder into a number of shares of common stock equal to the Conversion Ratio, provided that no holder shall have the right to exercise such conversion right until the later of (i) if applicable, the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period (or any extension thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) the effectiveness of the amendment to the Charter increasing the number of shares of the common stock that we are authorized to issue to a number sufficient to permit the issuance in full of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Class A Preferred Stock (the “Required Increase Amendment”). The Class A Preferred Stock will also convert automatically upon certain change of control transactions and qualified sales, as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of the Certificate of Designation. If the Required Increase Amendment has not become effective by April 5, 2028 (the “Amendment Deadline”), we will be required to redeem all outstanding shares of Class A Preferred Stock for cash at a redemption price reflecting the then-prevailing market value of the common stock underlying the Preferred Shares, calculated as set forth in the Certificate of Designation. The redemption price will be payable on or before the fifth business day after the Amendment Deadline. The effectiveness of the Charter Amendment will satisfy the requirement of the effectiveness of the Required Increase Amendment prior to the Amendment Deadline, assuming it is timely. Upon the effectiveness of the Charter Amendment, we will reserve 108,955,369 shares of common stock for future issuance upon conversion of Preferred Shares.

Our Board of Directors recommends the proposed increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock to facilitate issuing shares in the event that the Board of Directors determines that it is necessary or appropriate to (i) satisfy our obligations under the Purchase Agreement and provide for a sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock available for the conversion of the Preferred Shares, (ii) provide financial flexibility to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, convertible securities or other equity-linked securities, including through sales under the ATM Program, (iii) enter into additional strategic business transactions, (iv) provide equity incentives to directors, officers and employees pursuant to equity compensation plans or (v) other general corporate purposes. The availability of additional shares of common stock is particularly important in the event that the Board of Directors needs to undertake any of the foregoing actions on an expedited basis, as market conditions permit and favorable financing and business opportunities become available, and thus without the potential delay and expense associated with convening a special stockholders’ meeting. In considering and planning for our current and future corporate needs, our Board of Directors believes that the current number of authorized and unreserved shares of common stock available for issuance is inadequate. If stockholders do not vote to approve this proposal, we may be unable to issue shares when needed; approving this proposal will help avoid that issue. The failure to approve this proposal may prevent us from pursuing effective strategies to access capital in the public and private markets and could negatively affect our ability to continue as a going concern.

Effects of the Increase in the Number of Authorized Shares

If our stockholders approve this proposal to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock, unless otherwise required by applicable law or stock exchange rules, our Board of Directors will be able to issue the additional shares of common stock from time to time in its discretion without further action or authorization by stockholders, including, but not limited to, upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares. The newly authorized shares of common stock would be issuable for any proper corporate purposes, including future capital raising transactions of equity or convertible debt securities, acquisitions, investment opportunities, the establishment of collaborations or other strategic agreements, stock splits, stock dividends, issuance under current or future equity incentive plans or for other general corporate purposes.

The proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock will not, by itself, have an immediate dilutive effect on our current stockholders. However, the future issuance of additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into our common stock, including shares of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares, could, depending on the circumstances, have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share, book value per share, voting power and percentage interest of our existing stockholders, none of whom have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional shares of common stock that we may issue, and could depress the market price of the common stock. In addition to sales made pursuant to the ATM Program, we may sell shares of common stock at a price per share that is less than the current price per share and less than the price per share paid by our current stockholders. We may also sell securities in the future that could have rights superior to existing stockholders.

Rights of Additional Authorized Shares

The additional authorized shares of common stock, if and when issued, would be part of our existing class of common stock and would have the same rights and privileges as the shares of common stock currently outstanding. The Company’s stockholders do not have preemptive rights with respect to the common stock. Accordingly, should our Board of Directors elect to issue additional shares of common stock, existing stockholders would not have any preferential rights to purchase the shares.

Failure to Approve Proposal

If stockholders do not approve this Proposal 1 we will not be able to satisfy our obligation under the Purchase Agreement that we file the Required Increase Amendment by December 31, 2026. Further, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, if we fail to file the Required Increase Amendment (which the Charter Amendment would satisfy) by the Amendment Deadline, the Preferred Shares will become redeemable which will result in a significant expense to us. Additionally, if stockholders do not vote to approve this Proposal 1, we may be unable to issue shares when needed; approving this Proposal 1 will help avoid that issue. The failure to approve this Proposal 1 may prevent us from pursuing effective strategies to access capital in the public and private markets and could negatively affect our ability to continue as a going concern.

Potential Anti-Takeover Effect

An increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock may also, under certain circumstances, be construed as having an anti-takeover effect. Although not designed or intended for such purposes, the effect of the proposed increase might be to render more difficult or to discourage a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or change in control of us and the removal of management, which stockholders might otherwise deem favorable. For example, the authority of our Board of Directors to issue common stock might be used to create voting impediments or to frustrate an attempt by another person or entity to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control of us because the issuance of additional shares of common stock would dilute the voting power of the common stock then outstanding. Our common stock could also be issued to purchasers who would support our Board of Directors in opposing a takeover bid which our Board of Directors determines not to be in our best interests and those of our stockholders.

12

Table of Contents

The Board of Directors is not presently aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company and the proposed Charter Amendment to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock is not part of any plan by our Board of Directors to recommend or implement a series of anti-takeover measures.

Effectiveness of the Charter Amendment

Upon receipt of the necessary stockholder approval, the Board of Directors will make a final determination as to the timing of filing of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware the Charter Amendment to implement the increase the number of authorized shares of common stock. The Charter Amendment to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock would become effective upon such filing.

Additional Information

The foregoing summaries of the Purchase Agreement and Certificate of Designation are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and Certificate of Designation, which were filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 3.1, respectively, to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 29, 2026.

Vote Required

In accordance with Section 242(d)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, approval and adoption of Proposal 1 requires at least the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast at the Special Meeting. Accordingly, abstentions will not be counted toward the tabulation of votes cast on this proposal and will have no effect on Proposal 1. Shares represented by valid proxies and not revoked will be voted at the meeting in accordance with the instructions given. Broker non-votes, if any, will also have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1. If no voting instructions are given, such shares will be voted “FOR” Proposal 1.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL 1.
