August 9, 2023
To Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees:
Pasithea Therapeutics Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is offering to purchase for cash up to 5,714,285 shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (each, a “Share,” and collectively, “Shares”), at a price of $0.70 per Share (the “Purchase Price”), less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 9, 2023 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”), the related Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Letter of Transmittal”) and other related materials as may be amended or supplemented from time to time (collectively with the Offer to Purchase and the Letter to Transmittal, the “Offer”).
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, if 5,714,285 Shares or less are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, the Company will purchase all Shares properly tendered. All Shares acquired, if any, in the Offer will be acquired at the Purchase Price. Only Shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn will be purchased. However, because of proration and the conditional tender provisions described in the Offer to Purchase, the Company may not purchase all of the Shares tendered if more than 5,714,285 Shares are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn.
Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase. The description of the Offer in this letter is only a summary and is qualified by the terms and conditions of the Offer set forth in the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and other related materials.
The Company will not purchase any Shares tendered at prices in excess of the Purchase Price. When used together with a specific time, the term “Expiration Date” refers to the date on which the Offer expires. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, if 5,714,285 Shares or fewer are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn, the Company will purchase all Shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date. Only Shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn will be purchased in the Offer upon the terms of and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including proration and conditional tender provisions described in the Offer to Purchase). Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the Purchase Price for the Shares regardless of any delay in making such payment. All Shares acquired in the Offer, if any, will be acquired at the Purchase Price. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to increase or decrease the Purchase Price and to increase or decrease the number of Shares sought in the Offer, subject to applicable law. In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if more than 5,714,285 Shares are properly tendered in the Offer, the Company may increase the number of Shares accepted for payment in the Offer by no more than 2% of the outstanding Shares, or increase the aggregate purchase price of Shares by no more than 2%, without extending the Offer.
The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) upon the occurrence of any of certain conditions to the Offer more specifically described in the Offer to Purchase, (a) terminate the Offer and return all tendered Shares to the tendering stockholders, (b) extend the Offer and, subject to the withdrawal rights set forth in the Offer to Purchase, retain all of the tendered Shares until the expiration of the Offer as so extended, (c) waive a condition to the Offer and, subject to any requirement to extend the period of time during which the Offer is open, purchase all of the Shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, subject to proration, or (d) delay acceptance for payment of or payment for Shares, subject to applicable law, until satisfaction or waiver of such condition, or (ii) amend the Offer in any respect, subject to applicable law.

If the terms and conditions of the Offer have been satisfied or waived and 5,714,285 Shares or less are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, we will buy all Shares properly tendered.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, if more than 5,714,285 Shares, or such greater number of Shares as we may elect to purchase, subject to applicable law, have been properly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, we will purchase properly tendered and not properly withdrawn Shares on a pro rata basis with appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases of fractional Shares, as described below. Such proration will apply to all stockholders without priority. If proration of tendered Shares is required, we will determine the proration factor promptly following the Expiration Date. Subject to adjustment to avoid the purchase of fractional Shares, proration for each beneficial owner tendering Shares will be based on the ratio of the number of Shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn by the beneficial owner to the total number of Shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn by all stockholders.
As a result of the foregoing priorities applicable to the purchase of Shares properly tendered, it is possible that fewer than all Shares tendered by a stockholder will be purchased or that, if a tender is conditioned upon the purchase of a specified number of Shares, none of those Shares will be purchased even though those Shares were properly tendered and not properly withdrawn. Shares not purchased in the Offer, including Shares not purchased because of proration or conditional tender, will be returned to the tendering stockholders at the Company’s expense promptly after the Expiration Date. See Section 1, Section 3 and Section 5 of the Offer to Purchase.
The Offer is not conditioned on any minimum number of shares being tendered. The Offer is, however, subject to certain other conditions. See Section 7 of the Offer to Purchase.
