PROPOSED ACQUISITION

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

To the Stockholders of MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc.:

You are cordially invited to attend a virtual special 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 on           , at Eastern Time, unless postponed or adjourned to a later date. This is an important meeting that affects your investment in MIRA.

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         , 2025, the last trading day before the date of the attached proxy statement, the closing sale price of the MIRA Common Stock was $         per share.

MIRA is holding a virtual special meeting of its stockholders (the “MIRA virtual special meeting”) to obtain the stockholder approvals necessary to complete the Merger and related matters. MIRA has chosen to hold an exclusively virtual special 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 virtual special 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 Common Stock. At the MIRA virtual special meeting, unless postponed or adjourned to a later date, MIRA will ask its holders of MIRA Common Stock to, among other things:

Please refer to the attached proxy statement for further information with respect to the business to be transacted at the MIRA virtual special meeting.

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, that the stockholders of MIRA vote “FOR” Proposal Nos. 1 and 2. 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.

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.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved the Merger described in this proxy statement or the MIRA Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this proxy statement.

Dear Stockholder of MIRA:

On behalf of the board of directors of MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Florida corporation (“MIRA”), we are pleased to deliver this proxy statement for a virtual special meeting of stockholders of MIRA (the “MIRA virtual special meeting”), for the proposed merger between MIRA and SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SKNY”), pursuant to which MIRAPHARM Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA, will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA (the “Merger”).

Notice is hereby given that the MIRA virtual special meeting will be held on            , 2025, at           Eastern Time.

Please refer to the attached proxy statement for further information with respect to the business to be transacted at the MIRA virtual special meeting. The board of directors of MIRA (the “MIRA Board”) has fixed                 , 2025, as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the MIRA virtual special meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Q: What is the Merger?

MIRAPHARM Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA (“Merger Sub”), and SKNY Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SKNY”), entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization on June 16, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement, as it may be further amended from time to time, contains the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction among MIRA, Merger Sub and SKNY. Under the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SKNY, with SKNY surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRA (the “Merger”).

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.

Under the Exchange Ratio formula described in the Merger Agreement, immediately following the Merger, the pre-Merger equity holders of SKNY are expected to hold approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock and the pre-Merger equity holders of MIRA are expected to hold approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of MIRA Common Stock, in each case, on a fully diluted basis using the treasury stock method. The Exchange Ratio formula is based upon the relative values of MIRA and SKNY, as determined by Moore Financial Consulting, or Moore, as more fully described in the section titled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration and Exchange Ratio.” As a condition to Closing, on the Effective Time, SKNY must hold at least $5 million in either cash, marketable securities or a combination of cash and marketable securities. At the Effective Time, MIRA’s stockholders will continue to own and hold their existing shares of MIRA Common Stock. Following the Merger, MIRA’s shares will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq under the symbol “MIRA”.

Q: What will happen to MIRA if, for any reason, the Merger does not close?

A: If, for any reason, the Merger does not close, the board of directors of MIRA (the “MIRA Board”) may elect to, among other things, attempt to complete another strategic transaction similar to the Merger.

Q: Why are the two companies proposing to merge?

A: 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.

The procedures for voting are as follows:

Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote online at the MIRA virtual special meeting, vote by proxy over the telephone, vote by proxy through the internet, or vote by proxy by mail using the enclosed proxy card. Whether or not you plan to attend the MIRA virtual special meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the MIRA virtual special meeting and vote even if you have already voted by proxy.

If your shares are registered in your name with MIRA’s stock registrar and transfer agent, Equiniti, no proof of ownership is necessary because MIRA can verify your ownership.

Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other nominee, you should have received voting instructions from that organization rather than from MIRA. Simply follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that your vote is counted. Alternatively, you may vote by telephone or over the internet as instructed by your broker, bank, or other nominee. To vote online at the MIRA virtual special meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee. Follow the instructions from your broker, bank, or other nominee included with these proxy materials, or contact that organization to request a proxy form.

If you own shares in street name through an account with a bank, broker or other nominee, please send proof of your MIRA share ownership as of the MIRA record date (for example, a brokerage firm account statement or a “legal proxy” from your intermediary) along with your registration request. If you are not sure what proof to send, check with your intermediary.

We provide internet proxy voting to allow you to vote your shares online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions. However, please be aware that you must bear any costs associated with your internet access, such as usage charges from internet access providers and telephone companies.

If MIRA experiences technical difficulties during the MIRA virtual special meeting (e.g., a temporary or prolonged power outage), MIRA will determine whether the MIRA virtual special meeting can be promptly reconvened (if the technical difficulty is temporary) or whether the MIRA virtual special meeting will need to be reconvened on a later day (if the technical difficulty is more prolonged). In any situation, MIRA will promptly notify stockholders of the decision. MIRA will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the MIRA virtual special meeting website. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the MIRA virtual special meeting website during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the MIRA virtual special meeting website log-in page at www.proxyvote.com.

Q: How are votes counted?

A: Votes will be counted by the inspector of elections appointed for the meeting, who will separately count votes “FOR” and “AGAINST,” abstentions and, if applicable, broker non-votes.

We do not expect that any matter other than Proposal Nos. 1 and 2 will be brought before the MIRA virtual special meeting.

Q: What are “broker non-votes”?

A: Brokers who hold shares in street name for customers have the authority to vote on “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, brokers are precluded from exercising their voting discretion with respect to approval of non-routine matters, such as Proposal No. 1, and, as a result, absent specific instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares, brokers are not empowered to vote those shares, referred to generally as “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes, if any, will be treated as shares that are present at the virtual special meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists but will not be counted or deemed present virtually or by proxy for the purpose of voting on Proposal No. 1.

Q: What will happen if I return my proxy or voting instruction form without indicating how to vote?

A: If you submit your proxy or voting instruction form without indicating how to vote your shares on any particular proposal, the shares of MIRA Common Stock represented by your proxy will be voted as recommended by the MIRA Board with respect to that proposal.

Q: May I change my vote after I have submitted a proxy or voting instruction form?

A: MIRA’s stockholders of record may change their vote at any time before their proxy is voted at the MIRA virtual special meeting in one of following ways:

If a stockholder who owns shares of MIRA Common Stock in “street name” has instructed a broker, bank or other nominee to vote its shares of MIRA Common Stock, the stockholder must follow directions received from its broker to change those instructions.

Q: Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

A: MIRA is responsible for the cost of printing and filing of this proxy statement and the proxy card, including any fees paid to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with filing the proxy statement, and any amendments and supplements thereto, with the SEC. Arrangements will also be made with brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries who are record holders of MIRA Common Stock for the forwarding of solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of MIRA Common Stock. MIRA will reimburse these brokers, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses they incur in connection with the forwarding of solicitation materials. In addition to these proxy materials, MIRA’s directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication.

Q: What is the quorum requirement?

A: A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence at the MIRA virtual special meeting, virtually or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, as of the record date, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the MIRA virtual special meeting.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you attend the MIRA virtual special meeting and vote your shares during the MIRA virtual special meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if applicable, will also be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the holders of a majority of shares present at the MIRA virtual special meeting or represented by proxy may postpone or adjourn the meeting to another date.

Q: Am I entitled to dissenters’ rights?

A: MIRA shareholders are not entitled to dissenters’ rights. See the section of this proxy statement titled “Appraisal Rights and Dissenters’ Rights” on page 36.

MARKET PRICE AND DIVIDEND INFORMATION

MIRA Common Stock

The closing price of MIRA Common Stock on March 18, 2025, the trading day immediately prior to the public announcement of the Merger on March 19, 2025, as reported on The Nasdaq Global Market, was $1.17 per share. The closing price of MIRA Common Stock on March 19, 2026, as reported on The Nasdaq Global Market, was $1.20 per share. As of , 2025, the record date for the MIRA virtual special meeting, there were holders of record of the MIRA Common Stock.

Dividends

MIRA has never declared or paid any cash dividends on the MIRA Common Stock and does not anticipate paying cash dividends on the MIRA Common Stock for the foreseeable future. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any determination to pay cash dividends subsequent to the Merger will be at the discretion of MIRA’s then-current board of directors and will depend upon a number of factors, including MIRA’s results of operations, financial condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors the then-current board of directors deems relevant.

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:

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 post-approval 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 post-approval 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:

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:

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 day-to-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 integration-related 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 MIRA Board also reviewed various reasons impacting the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of SKNY, including:

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:

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:

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.

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.

On March 26, MIRA’s Chief Financial Officer provided responses to the questions asked by Moore.

On April 8, 2025, Moore provided SKNY with follow up questions related to diligence. SKNY promptly responded with the requested information.

On April 9, 2025, Moore provided the parties a preliminary valuation of SKNY.

On April 10, 2025, Moore provided the parties a preliminary valuation of MIRA.

On April 21, 2025, Moore provided a preliminary oral discussion of its valuation results with the management teams of MIRA and SKNY.

On April 22, 2025, Moore provided SKNY’s and MIRA’s management with an initial fairness opinion for the Exchange Ratio and valuation reports of SKNY and MIRA.

On April 30, 2025, MIRA’s board of directors held a meeting to discuss the approval of the Merger Agreement and Exchange Ratio. Moore presented MIRA’s board of directors with an analysis of its determination of MIRA’s and SKNY’s valuations. MIRA’s and SKNY’s management provided a discussion regarding the benefits of the Merger. MIRA’s legal counsel provided a discussion on the potential conflicts of interest involved in the Merger. 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:

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:

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 virtual special 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 virtual special 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 virtual special 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 1.1% 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:

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:

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:

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. Such records should specifically include information regarding the amount, basis, and fair market value of all transferred property, and relevant facts regarding any liabilities assumed or extinguished as part of such reorganization. U.S. holders who owned immediately before the Merger at least one percent (by vote or value) of the total outstanding stock of SKNY or securities of SKNY with a basis of $1,000,000 or more are required to attach a statement to their tax returns for the year in which the Merger is consummated that contains the information listed in Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3(b). Such statement must include the U.S. holder’s tax basis in such holder’s SKNY Capital Stock surrendered in the Merger, the fair market value of such stock, the date of the Merger and the name and employer identification number of each of SKNY and MIRA. U.S. holders are urged to consult with their tax advisors to comply with these rules.

Holders of SKNY Capital Stock are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger in light of their personal circumstances and the consequences to them under state, local and non-U.S. tax laws and other federal tax laws.

Nasdaq Stock Market Listing

MIRA Common Stock currently is listed on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “MIRA.” MIRA has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to maintain its existing listing on Nasdaq until the Effective Time and obtain approval of the listing of the combined company on Nasdaq, (ii) to the extent required by the rules and regulations of Nasdaq, to prepare and submit to Nasdaq a notification form for the listing of the shares of MIRA Common Stock to be issued in connection with the MIRA, and to cause such shares to be approved for listing (subject to official notice of issuance), and (iii) to the extent required by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5110, to file an initial Nasdaq Listing Application for the MIRA Common Stock on Nasdaq and to cause such listing application to be conditionally approved prior to the Effective Time.

In addition, under the Merger Agreement, each of SKNY’s and MIRA’s obligation to complete the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver by each of the parties, at or prior to the Closing, of various conditions, including that the shares of MIRA Common Stock to be issued in the Merger have been approved for listing (subject to official notice of issuance) on Nasdaq as of the Closing.

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 book-entry 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.

Completion and Effectiveness of the Merger

The Merger will be completed as promptly as practicable after all of the conditions to Closing are satisfied or waived, including the approval of the stockholders of MIRA and of SKNY, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. For more information on termination rights, see the section titled “The Merger Agreement—Termination.” MIRA and SKNY cannot predict the exact timing of the Closing because it is subject to various conditions.

Conditions to the Merger

The completion of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including but not limited to:

SKNY Capitalization on Closing

As mentioned earlier, upon Closing, SKNY is to have assets comprising any combination of cash and marketable securities with a total value of at least five million U.S. dollars (US$5,000,000). It is expected that upon closing, SKNY will hold approximately $5 million worth of shares of Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:TELO).

Approvals

The Board of Directors of SKNY has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and recommends that shareholders of SKNY approve the Merger. Similarly, the Board of Directors of MIRA has approved the Merger and recommends that its shareholders vote “FOR” the issuance of shares in connection with the Merger.

Termination

The Merger Agreement provides for termination under certain circumstances, including:

Treatment of SKNY Stock Options

SKNY currently has no stock options outstanding.

Treatment of SKNY Warrants

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each warrant to purchase shares of SKNY Common Stock that is outstanding will be converted into and become a warrant to purchase shares of MIRA Common Stock and MIRA will assume each SKNY warrant in accordance with its terms.

Treatment of MIRA Options, RSUs and Warrants

MIRA’s outstanding options, RSUs and warrants will not be affected by the Merger.

Representations and Warranties

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties that MIRA and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and SKNY, on the other hand, have made to one another as of specific dates. These representations and warranties have been made for the benefit of the other parties to the Merger Agreement and may be intended not as statements of fact but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if such statements made in the representations and warranties prove to be incorrect. In addition, the assertions made in the representations and warranties are qualified by the information in confidential disclosure schedules exchanged by the parties in connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement. While MIRA and SKNY do not believe that these disclosure schedules contain information required to be publicly disclosed under the applicable securities laws, other than information that has already been so disclosed, the disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties as current characterizations of factual information about MIRA, SKNY or Merger Sub, because they were made as of specific dates, may be intended merely as a risk allocation mechanism between MIRA and Merger Sub on the one hand, and SKNY on the other hand, and are modified by the disclosure schedules.

Management 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

Regulatory Approvals

We are not aware of any federal, state, local or foreign regulatory requirements that must be complied with or approvals that must be obtained prior to completion of the merger pursuant to the merger agreement, other than compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, the filing of articles of merger as required under the Florida Business Corporation Act and various state governmental authorizations.

Appraisal Rights and Dissenters’ Rights

Pursuant to Section 607.1302 of the Florida Business Corporation Act, the shareholders of MIRA will not be entitled to appraisal rights or dissenters rights as a result of the merger.

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.

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:

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:

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.

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:

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 heat-not-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).

Figure: Estimates of the Smoking Cessation Target Population.

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:

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:

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:

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.

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. We seek protection of these trade secrets, proprietary know-how and any continuing innovation, in part, through confidentiality and proprietary information agreements. However, these agreements may not provide meaningful protection for, or adequate remedies to protect, our technology in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of information. Furthermore, our trade secrets may otherwise become known to, or be independently developed by, our competitors. We intend to seek appropriate patent protection for technology in our research and development programs, where applicable, and their uses by filing patent applications in the United States and other selected countries. We intend for these patent applications to cover, where possible, claims for compositions of matter, medical uses, processes for preparation and formulations.

Properties

Our current business address is 3014 West Palmira Ave., Suite 302 Tampa, FL 33629.

Employees

As of June 2025, we have one full time employee and various consultants providing support. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our relationship with our employees to be satisfactory.

Legal Proceedings

Currently, no legal proceedings, government actions, administrative actions, investigations, or claims are pending against us or involve us that, in the opinion of our management, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We anticipate that we will expend significant financial and managerial resources in the defense of our intellectual property rights in the future if we believe that our rights have been violated. We also anticipate that we will expend significant financial and managerial resources to defend against claims that our products and services infringe upon the intellectual property rights of third parties.

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.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or SKNY Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of any stock split, dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares of Company Common Stock or SKNY Common Stock, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange of shares or similar event, then the Exchange Ratio shall be correspondingly adjusted to provide the holders of the SKNY Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange of shares or similar event.

(c) Each share of SKNY Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in this Section ‎2.1.0 shall no longer be outstanding and shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and the holders of certificates (“Certificates”) which, immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such shares of SKNY Common Stock, shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Certificates for Company Common Stock calculated in accordance with the Exchange Ratio.

2.1.1 No Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Company Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares will be issued. All fractional share amounts shall be rounded down to the nearest whole based on the total number of shares of Company Common Stock to be issued to the holder of shares of SKNY Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of Company Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional Company Common Stock issuable to such holder).

2.2 Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but not later than three Business Days thereafter), Company shall deliver to the holders of SKNY Common Stock, stock certificates or evidence of book entry for the number of shares of Company Common Stock to which the holders of record of SKNY Common Stock become entitled to receive pursuant to Section ‎2.1.1 above, and the holders of SKNY Common Stock shall surrender to the Company the certificates evidencing ownership of such shares of SKNY Common Stock.

2.3 Full Discharge. All shares of Company Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of shares of SKNY Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to cancelled shares of SKNY Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of SKNY of the SKNY Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

2.4 No Liability. The rights of a holder of SKNY Common Stock to receive Company Common Stock upon surrender of the shares of SKNY Common Stock shall expire on the 18-month anniversary of the Closing. Company shall not be liable to any holder of shares of SKNY Common Stock for any shares of Company Common Stock (or dividends or distributions, if any, with respect thereto) properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar Applicable Law.

2.5 Further Actions. If, at or prior to the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes or intent of this Agreement, the directors and officers of the Company, Merger Sub and SKNY shall have the authority to take all such lawful and necessary action.

3.8 No Undisclosed Liabilities; Absence of Changes.

3.9 Litigation.
