Re: Exchange Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) confirms the agreement of ALX Oncology Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the holders of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), listed on Schedule I attached hereto (the “Stockholders”), pursuant to which (i) the Stockholders have agreed to surrender an aggregate of [•] shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Stockholders for no consideration and (ii) the Company has agreed to issue one or more pre-funded warrants in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each a “Warrant”) to purchase an aggregate of [•] shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”) on the terms specified below.

 

In consideration of the foregoing, the Company and the Stockholders agree as follows:

 

1)
No later than the close of business on October 15, 2026, or such other date as mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement (the “Closing Date”), and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth herein, (i) the Stockholders shall surrender the Shares for no consideration (the “Surrender”) and (ii) the Company shall issue the Warrants (the “Warrant Issuance” and, together with the Surrender, the “Exchange”) in the respective amounts listed on Schedule I. The Exchange shall be consummated pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). On or prior to the Closing Date: (a) the Company and the Stockholders shall jointly and irrevocably instruct Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Transfer Agent”) to retire, cancel or re-register such Shares in the name of the Company; and (b) the Company shall issue and deliver to the Stockholders the Warrants exercisable for the Warrant Shares, in the amounts and in the names set forth on Schedule I and shall instruct the Transfer Agent to reserve [•] shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants.

 

2)
The Company represents and warrants to each Stockholder as follows:

 

a.
Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates nor any person acting on behalf of or for the benefit of any of the foregoing, has paid or given, or agreed to pay or give, directly or indirectly, any commission or other remuneration (within the meaning of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) promulgated thereunder) for soliciting the Exchange. Assuming the representations and warranties of the Stockholders contained herein are true and complete, the Exchange will qualify for the registration exemption contained in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

 

b.
The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Exchange, and such transactions shall not contravene any contractual, regulatory, statutory or other obligation or restriction applicable to the Company.

 

c.
The Company has reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock as may be necessary to fully permit the exercise of the Warrants as of the date of issuance and the issuance

 


 

of the Warrant Shares, without regard to any adjustment provisions or beneficial ownership limits set forth in the Warrants.

 

3)
Each Stockholder, as to itself only, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

a.
Such Stockholder has the requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Exchange and such transactions will not contravene any contractual, regulatory, statutory or other obligation or restriction applicable to such Stockholder.

 

b.
Such Stockholder is the record and beneficial owner of, and has valid and marketable title to, the Shares being surrendered for no consideration by it pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of any lien, pledge, restriction or other encumbrance (other than restrictions arising pursuant to applicable securities laws), and has the absolute and unrestricted right, power and capacity to surrender the Shares being surrendered for no consideration by it pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of any lien, pledge, restriction or other encumbrance. It is not a party to or bound by, and the Shares being surrendered for no consideration by it pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to, any agreement, understanding or other arrangement (i) granting any option, warrant or right of first refusal with respect to such Shares to any person, (ii) restricting its right to surrender such Shares for no consideration as contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) restricting any other of its rights with respect to such Shares, and it has received no consideration for the surrender of the Shares.

 

c.
Neither it nor any of its affiliates nor any person acting on behalf of or for the benefit of any of the foregoing, has paid or given, or agreed to pay or give, directly or indirectly, any commission or other remuneration (within the meaning of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder) for soliciting the Exchange.

 

d.
Such Stockholder can bear the economic risk of the Exchange and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Exchange and any subsequent exercise of the Warrants, and upon exercise, any subsequent sales of the Warrant Shares. Such Stockholder is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

e.
Such Stockholder acknowledges that the default form of exercise for the Warrant is a “cashless exercise,” but such Stockholder may elect to exercise the Warrant for cash, all as specified in the Warrant. If such Stockholder elects to exercise the Warrant for cash, such Stockholder acknowledges that the shares of common stock issued upon the exercise of the Warrant will not have the benefit of tacking of the holding period of the Warrant under Rule 144(d)(3)(x) under the Securities Act.

 

f.
Such Stockholder understands that no public market currently exists for the Warrants.

 

g.
Such Stockholder acknowledges that the Exchange is being made in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares may bear restrictive legends required under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws.

 

4)
Each of the Company and the Stockholders is liable for, and will pay, its own expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, including, without limitation, attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses.

5)
