Dear Holder:

 

OS Therapies Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is pleased to offer to you (“Holder”, “you” or similar terminology) the opportunity to exercise for cash all or a portion of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants issued on December 31, 2024 and/or January 14, 2025, each to purchase one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company at their current exercise price of $1.12 per share (the “Existing Warrants”), which were originally issued to you by the Company pursuant to either (i) that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 24, 2024, by and among the Company and the purchaser party thereto or (ii) that certain Letter Agreement, dated December 27, 2024, by and between the Company and Brookline Capital Markets, a division of Arcadia Securities, LLC.

 

The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Existing Warrants (the “Existing Warrant Shares”) have been registered for resale pursuant to the Company’s registration statements on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-284631 and 333-287569) (the “Registration Statements”). The Registration Statements are currently effective and, upon exercise of the Existing Warrants pursuant to this letter agreement, will be effective for the issuance or sale, as applicable, of the Existing Warrant Shares. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the New Warrants (as defined below).

 

Inducement Period and Offering Terms

 

This offer is being made during the period beginning on June 20, 2025 and ending at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on July 10, 2025 (the “Termination Date” and, such period, the “Inducement Period”). During the Inducement Period, the Company is offering the terms set forth in this letter agreement to the Holder and all other holders of Existing Warrants. The offering may be consummated in one or more closings with respect to exercises of the Existing Warrants, at such times and in such amounts as determined at the mutual discretion of Ceros (as defined below) and the Company (each, a “Closing”). The Company may, at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, extend, terminate or suspend the Inducement Period prior to the Termination Date, upon written notice to the Holder and Ceros Financial Services, Inc., who is acting as the Company’s exclusive warrant solicitation agent for this offering (“Ceros”), without any obligation to extend or reopen the Inducement Period thereafter. Pursuant to a Warrant Solicitation Agreement with the Company, Ceros is entitled to receive a cash fee equal to 5% of the aggregate gross cash proceeds received by the Company from the exercise of the Existing Warrants, together with an expense reimbursement not to exceed $15,000. The Company may also waive any conditions or requirements applicable to any individual Holder or group of Holders participating in a Closing. The rights and obligations of each participating Holder shall be several and not joint with those of any other Holder, and no participating Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of any other Holder.

 

In consideration for each cash exercise of Existing Warrants held by you as set forth on the signature page hereto at the current Exercise Price of $1.12 per share (the “Warrant Exercise”) during the Inducement Period, the Company hereby offers to sell and issue to you a new Common Stock Purchase Warrant (“New Warrant”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 100% of the number of Warrant Shares issued pursuant to your Warrant Exercise (the “New Warrant Shares”). The New Warrants shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex B, and shall have an exercise price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein, and shall be exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise of five (5) years.

 

The original certificates (or book-entry statements) for the New Warrants shall be delivered within two (2) Business Days following the date of each applicable Closing. The New Warrants and the New Warrant Shares shall bear customary restrictive legends unless and until registered under the Securities Act.

 

 

 

 

Beneficial Ownership Limitation

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Warrant Exercise would otherwise cause the Holder to exceed the beneficial ownership limitations set forth in Section 2(e) of the Existing Warrants (“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), the Company shall only issue such number of Existing Warrant Shares to the Holder that would not cause the Holder to exceed the maximum number of Warrant Shares permitted thereunder, as directed by the Holder, with the balance to be held in abeyance until notice from the Holder that the balance (or portion thereof) may be issued in compliance with such limitations, which abeyance shall be evidenced through the Existing Warrants which shall be deemed prepaid thereafter (including the cash payment in full of the exercise price), and exercised pursuant to a Notice of Exercise in the Existing Warrants (provided no additional exercise price shall be due and payable). The parties hereby agree that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation for purposes of the Existing Warrants is as set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto.

 

Acceptance and Public Disclosure

 

Holder may accept this offer with respect to all or any portion of its Existing Warrants by signing this letter agreement below and delivering it to the Company, with such acceptance constituting Holder’s election to exercise the applicable portion of its Existing Warrants for cash for the number of shares of Common Stock and the aggregate exercise price set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto (the “Warrant Exercise Price”), on or prior to the Termination Date.

 

No later than 9:30 a.m., Eastern time, on the Trading Day immediately following the initial Closing, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated herein, including the filing of this letter agreement as an exhibit thereto, within the time required by the Exchange Act. For the avoidance of doubt, only one such Form 8-K shall be required to be filed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of whether multiple holders execute this letter agreement on different dates. From and after the filing of such Form 8-K, the Company represents that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information provided to you by the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. In addition, effective upon such filing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality, no trade or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, or affiliates) and you (or any of your affiliates) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

 

Delivery of Existing Warrant Shares

 

The Company represents, warrants, and covenants that, upon Holder’s acceptance of this offer and execution of this letter agreement, and subject to receipt of the applicable Warrant Exercise Price, the Existing Warrant Shares shall be issued free of any legends or restrictions on resale by Holder (except as required under applicable law) and delivered electronically to Holder through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company within one (1) Business Day following the date of each applicable Closing (or, with respect to any portion of the Existing Warrant Shares that would otherwise be issued in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, within one (1) Business Day of the Company’s receipt of notice from Holder that its ownership is below the applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation). For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the Existing Warrants, including the Company’s obligations with respect to the timely delivery of Existing Warrant Shares, shall remain in full force and effect, and the Company shall treat the acceptance of this offer as a formal and valid Notice of Exercise under the Existing Warrants, including with respect to any applicable provisions regarding liquidated damages or other remedies for late delivery.

Representations and Legends

 

The Company hereby agrees to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth on Annex A attached hereto, which include registration obligations of the Company with respect to the New Warrant Shares. By signing this letter agreement below, you represent and warrant that, as of the date hereof and the date of any Closing in which you participate, you are and will be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and acknowledges that the New Warrants will contain restrictive legends when issued, and neither the New Warrants nor the New Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act. Holder further represents and warrants that it is acquiring the New Warrants as principal for its own account and is not acquiring the New Warrants or the New Warrant Shares with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of applicable securities laws, and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understanding with any other person to distribute or regarding the distribution of the New Warrants or the New Warrant Shares (this representation does not limit Holder’s right to sell the New Warrant Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with applicable law).

 

The Holder understands that issuance of the New Warrants and the New Warrant Shares are not, and may never be, registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state and, accordingly, each certificate, if any, representing such securities shall bear a legend substantially similar to the following:

 

“NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES FOR WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, certificates representing, or book-entry statements evidencing, the New Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend, (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such New Warrant Shares is effective under the Securities Act (See “Annex A – subsection (e)” for description of registration obligations with respect to the New Warrant Shares), (ii) following any sale of such New Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) if such New Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the New Warrants), without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such New Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, (iv) if such New Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the New Warrants) and the Company is then in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such New Warrant Shares, or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission and the earliest of clauses (i) through (v), the “Delegend Date”)). Upon receipt of a representation letter or other documentation from the Holder that the Company may reasonably request, the Company shall, at its expense, cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Delegend Date if required by the Company and/or the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder, or at the request of the Holder, which opinion shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Holder. From and after the Delegend Date, such New Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the Delegend Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this paragraph, it will, no later than one (1) Trading Day following the delivery by the Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing, or book entry statement evidencing, the New Warrant Shares issued with a restrictive legend and a representation letter from the Holder that the Company may reasonably request (such Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder a certificate representing, or book entry statement evidencing, such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends or, at the request of the Holder shall credit the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Holder.

Independence of Holders

 

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Holders under this letter agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder or any other holders of warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company (each, an “Other Holder”) under any other agreement related to the exercise of such common stock purchase warrants (“Other Warrant Exercise Agreement”), and the Holder shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Holder or under any such Other Warrant Exercise Agreement. Nothing contained in this letter agreement, and no action taken by the Holders pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and the Other Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and the Other Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement and the Company acknowledges that the Holder and the Other Holders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement or any Other Warrant Exercise Agreement. By signing this letter agreement, the Holder confirms that it has had the opportunity to consult with its own counsel and advisors with respect to the matters set forth herein. The Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this letter agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
