Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 23, 2023, TenX Keane Acquisition, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“TenX”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among TenX, TenX Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned Subsidiary of TenX (“Merger Sub”), Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Citius Pharma”), and Citius Oncology, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Citius Pharma (“Citius Oncology”).

The Merger

The Merger Agreement provides that, among other things and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, the following transactions will occur (together with the other agreements and transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”), and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”):

(i) Merger Sub will merge with and into Citius Oncology, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and Citius Oncology will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of TenX (the “Merger”);

(ii) as a result of the Merger, among other things, in the aggregate, a number of shares of New Citius Oncology Common Stock (as defined below) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) six hundred and seventy-five million dollars ($675,000,000) by (y) ten dollars ($10.00), or 67,500,000 shares of New Citius Oncology Common Stock, will be issued or issuable to holders of outstanding Citius Oncology capital stock;

(iii) upon the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each option of Citius Oncology (a “Citius Oncology Option”) that is then outstanding shall be converted into the right to receive an option relating to New Citius Oncology Common Stock upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that the exercise price per share for each such Citius Oncology Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of such Citius Oncology Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by the quotient of 67,500,000 divided by the aggregate number of shares of Citius Oncology Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(iv) upon the Effective Time, Citius Oncology will immediately be renamed to a name chosen by Citius Pharma in its sole discretion prior to the Effective Time.

The board of directors of TenX (the “Board”) has unanimously (i) approved and declared advisable the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) resolved to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement and related matters by the shareholders of TenX.

The Domestication

Prior to the Closing, subject to the approval of TenX’s shareholders, and in accordance with the DGCL, the Companies Act (as revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “CICA”), and TenX’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (as may be amended from time to time, the “Cayman Constitutional Documents”), TenX will effect a deregistration under the CICA and a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL (by means of filing a certificate of domestication with the Secretary of State of Delaware), pursuant to which TenX’s jurisdiction of incorporation will be changed from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”).

In connection with the Domestication,

(i) TenX will change its name to Citius Oncology, Inc. (“New Citius Oncology”);

(ii) each of the then issued ordinary shares, par value one ten-thousandth of a dollar ($0.0001) per share, of TenX (the “TenX Ordinary Shares”) will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis into shares of common stock, par value one ten-thousandth of a dollar ($0.0001) per share, of New Citius Oncology (the “New Citius Oncology Common Stock”);

(iii) each then-issued and outstanding right to receive two-tenths (2/10^th) of one (1) share of Ten X Ordinary Shares (the “TenX Rights”) shall convert automatically into a right to receive two-tenths (2/10^th) of one (1) share of New Citius Oncology Common Stock (the “New Citius Oncology Right”); and

(iv) each then issued and outstanding unit of TenX (the “TenX Units”), will be canceled and convert automatically into one (1) share of New Citius Oncology Common Stock and one (1) New Citius Oncology Right.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, and after the Domestication, TenX will have one (1) class of common stock, the New Citius Oncology Common Stock, for which TenX will apply for listing on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) prior to the Closing.

Conditions to Closing

The Merger Agreement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, including, among others, (i) approval of the Business Combination and related agreements and transactions by the respective shareholders of TenX and Citius Oncology, (ii) effectiveness of the proxy/registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by TenX in connection with the Business Combination, (iii) expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (as contemplated by the Merger Agreement), (iv) that after redemption, TenX’s net tangible assets shall be no less than five million and one dollars ($5,000,001) upon Closing, (v) that there has been no “Material Adverse Effect” on either TenX or Citius Oncology since the date of the Merger Agreement, and (vi) the absence of certain injunctions.

Other conditions to Citius Oncology’s obligations to consummate the Merger include, among others, that as of the Closing, (i) the Domestication will have been completed, (ii) no outstanding or uncured written notice has been received by TenX from Nasdaq stating that it has failed, or would reasonably be expected to fail to meet the Nasdaq initial or continued listing requirements as of the Closing Date for any reason, and (iii) the Sponsor shall have paid or caused to be paid in full, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, any Estimated Parent Transaction Expenses (as such term in defined in the Merger Agreement) in excess of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000).

Covenants

The Merger Agreement contains additional covenants, including, among others, providing for (i) the parties to conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course through the Closing, (ii) Citius Pharma, Citius Oncology and TenX to furnish each other and their respective representatives reasonable access through the Closing to their properties, appropriate officers and employees, books and records, (iii) Citius Pharma to be able to initiate negotiations or enter into any agreements for alternative transactions during the period until the later of (a) the date the Parent Registration Statement first becomes publicly filed on U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) EDGAR database, or (b) February 29, 2024 (the “Specified Period”), subject to at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to TenX and TenX’s option, during such period, to make a matching proposal which Citius Pharma shall negotiate in good faith, (iv) Citius Pharma to prepare and deliver to TenX certain audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements of Citius Oncology, (v) TenX to prepare and file a proxy/registration statement on Form S-4 and take certain other actions to obtain the requisite approval of TenX shareholders of certain proposals regarding the Business Combination (including the Domestication), (vi) the parties to use reasonable best efforts to obtain necessary approvals from governmental agencies, (vii) the ability of TenX and its sponsor, 10XYZ Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Sponsor”), to (x) automatically extend, in accordance with the Cayman Constitutional Documents, the date by which TenX must consummate a Business Combination until April 17, 2024, and (y) if the parties determine that it is reasonably likely the Closing will not take place by April 17, 2024, TenX may seek shareholder approval to extend such date until October 17, 2024, and (viii) Citius Pharma will pay a portion of the extension fees the Sponsor is required to deposit into the trust account of TenX (the “Trust Account”) in connection with the Business Combination, which are described in section (vii) above (each, an “Extension Fee”). After the Closing, Citius Pharma will be repaid the amounts it deposited into the Trust Account by New Citius Oncology, but only if at the time of the Closing and after giving effect to any redemptions by TenX shareholders, the balance of the liquidated Trust Account equals or exceeds $2,000,000. Any amounts remaining of the liquidated Trust Account after Citius Pharma has been reimbursed will be used to reimburse the Sponsor for its portion of the Extension Fees.

Termination

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the Closing, including (i) by the mutual written consent of Citius Pharma and TenX, (ii) by TenX or Citius Pharma if, prior to the Closing, the FDA issues a complete response letter to Citius Pharma in response to Citius Pharma’s resubmission of its BLA, (iii) by Citius Pharma or TenX, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before September 30, 2024, (iv) by Citius Pharma or TenX, if any law is passed that would make the Business Combination illegal, (v) by Citius Pharma or TenX, if TenX has not obtained the requisite approval from its shareholders, (vi) by Citius Pharma or TenX if the other party breaches certain representations, warranties, or covenants, as specified in the Merger Agreement, and that breach is unable to be cured, or is not cured, within fifteen (15) days, or (vii) by Citius Pharma prior to the termination of the Specified Period, in order to accept an alternative acquisition and enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such acquisition, provided that Citius Pharma has paid TenX a termination fee of five million dollars ($5,000,000).

Certain Related Agreements

Sponsor Support Agreement

On October 23, 2023, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Sponsor entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement with Citius Pharma, Citius Oncology, and TenX, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor agreed to vote any TenX securities held by it to approve the Business Combination and the other TenX shareholder matters required pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and not to seek redemption of any of its TenX securities in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

The Merger Agreement contemplates that, at or prior to the Closing, TenX (as New Citius Oncology), the Sponsor and certain of their respective affiliates and certain stockholders of Citius Oncology will enter into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “A&R Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which New Citius Oncology will agree to register for resale, certain shares of New Citius Oncology Common Stock that are held by the parties thereto from time to time.

Additionally, the Sponsor and those certain stockholders of Citius Oncology who are a party to the agreement have restrictions on transferring any shares of New Citius Oncology Common Stock or any security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for such common stock beginning at Closing until the date that is six (6) months after Closing; provided that the restrictions may be lifted early if (a) the price of the shares equals or exceeds twelve dollars ($12.00) per share for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30)-day trading period, or (b) New Citius Oncology completes a transaction that results in public shareholders having the right to exchange their New Citius Oncology Common Stock for cash, securities or other property.

Amended and Restated Shared Services Agreement

The Merger Agreement contemplates that, at or prior to the Closing, Citius Oncology and Citius Pharma will enter into an Amended and Restated Shared Services Agreement (the “A&R Shared Services Agreement”) pursuant to which Citius Pharma and its affiliates will provide to New Citius Oncology the services set forth in the A&R Shared Services Agreement, after the Merger, which services are of the type that Citius Pharma provided to Citius Oncology prior to the Merger.

The foregoing description of the Sponsor Support Agreement, the A&R Registration Rights Agreement and the A&R Shared Services Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Agreements”) is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to each Transaction Agreement, copies of which are filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3, respectively, and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.

The Merger Agreement and the Transaction Agreements have been included to provide investors with information regarding their terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about TenX or its affiliates. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement, the Transaction Agreements and the other documents related thereto were made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement as of the specific dates therein, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to such agreements instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors.

The Parties hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the Treasury Regulations. All of the Parties agree to cooperate and use their best efforts in order to qualify the Merger as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code, to not take any action that could reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to so qualify, and to report the Merger for federal, state and any local income Tax purposes in a manner consistent with such characterization.

2.7 Adjustment to Parent Transaction Expenses.

(a) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation will prepare and deliver to Sponsor a statement (the “Closing Statement”) containing the actual amount of all Parent Transaction Expenses (including those invoiced following the Closing). The Surviving Corporation shall provide Sponsor with reasonable access to its books and records as may be reasonably requested by Sponsor to verify the information contained in the Closing Statement.

8

(b) Dispute Resolution.

(i) Within thirty (30) days following Sponsor’s receipt of the Closing Statement, Sponsor will deliver written notice to the Surviving Corporation of any dispute with respect to the Closing Statement, setting forth such disputed item in reasonable detail (a “Closing Statement Dispute”). If the Sponsor does not notify the Surviving Corporation of any Closing Statement Dispute within such thirty (30)-day period, then the Closing Statement and the determinations and calculations of the Parent Transaction Expenses set forth therein will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. If Sponsor delivers to the Surviving Corporation a Closing Statement Dispute, then Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation will negotiate in good faith to resolve all disputed matters set forth in the Closing Statement Dispute. If Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve the Closing Statement Dispute within thirty (30) days (or longer, as mutually agreed to by such Parties in writing) after Sponsor delivers to the Surviving Corporation notice of the Closing Statement Dispute, then Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation will mutually agree on and jointly engage an independent auditor that is experienced in such matters (the “Independent Auditor”), to promptly resolve any and all unresolved matters of the Closing Statement Dispute.

(ii) The Independent Auditor shall consider only those items and amounts set forth in the Closing Statement Dispute that are identified by either Sponsor or the Surviving Corporation as being items that Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation are unable to resolve. As promptly as practicable thereafter, Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation will each prepare and submit a written presentation to the Independent Auditor (each of which will be shared with the other party, but not until such time that both Parties have submitted their presentations) and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to make a final determination with respect to the Parties’ respective positions based upon the applicable language, definitions and Exhibits of this Agreement, and the presentations by Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation.

(iii) In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Auditor will be bound by the terms of this Agreement, will serve as an expert and not an arbitrator, and will not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. Except as Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation may otherwise agree, all communications between any party or its respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Auditor, on the other hand, will be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating Party (except in such cases where both Parties are submitting a presentation). The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Auditor will be borne by Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation in inverse proportion, as determined by the Independent Auditor, as they may prevail on the matter resolved by the Independent Auditor. Absent fraud, all determinations made by the Independent Auditor will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Parties agree that judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Independent Auditor in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced.

(iv) If the Parent Transaction Expenses (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.7(b)) is greater than the Parent Estimated Transaction Expenses and greater than $500,000, then Sponsor will pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Parent, an amount in cash equal to (A) the amount by which the Parent Transaction Expenses exceeds $500,000 minus (B) the amount, if any, that Sponsor paid at Closing in respect of Parent Estimated Transaction Expenses.

9

(v) Any payment required pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) will be made within five (5) Business Days after the date of final determination of the Parent Transaction Expenses in accordance with Section 2.7(b).

(vi) Each party will reasonably cooperate with and make available to the other party and its respective accountants and other Representatives all information, records, data and working papers, and will permit access to its records, facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably requested in connection with this Section 2.7(b). including the resolution of any matters or disputes hereunder.

Article III

CONVERSION OF SHARES

3.1 Effect on Capital Stock and SpinCo Options. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party to this Agreement or any holder of the capital stock of the Company, SpinCo, Merger Sub or Parent:

(a) SpinCo Common Stock and Merger Sub Common Stock.

(i) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock issued and outstanding and held by the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Outstanding SpinCo Shares”) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock equal to the Base Exchange Ratio, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(iii), with any fractional shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock rounded down to the nearest whole share for no additional consideration (the “Merger Consideration”). Each Outstanding SpinCo Share, when converted in accordance with this Section 3.1(a)(i), shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and the holder thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(b).

(ii) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock held by SpinCo as treasury stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist and no stock or other consideration shall be issued or delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof.

(iii) The Aggregate Parent Common Stock Consideration and the resulting Base Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate to reflect the effect of any stock split, split-up, reverse stock split, stock dividend or distributions of Parent Common Stock, or securities convertible into any such securities, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock having a record date occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time; provided, that nothing in this Section 3.1(a)(iii) shall be construed to permit Parent to take or to permit any of its Subsidiaries to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

10

(iv) At the Effective Time, all of the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub (“Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) SpinCo Options. As of the Effective Time, Parent shall assume each SpinCo Option that is outstanding (whether vested or unvested) as of the Effective Time (such assumed options are referred to as the “Domesticated Parent Options”). The Domesticated Parent Options will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting and termination-related provisions) set forth in the applicable option documents (including the SpinCo Equity Incentive Plan and stock option agreement or other document evidencing such SpinCo Option) immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) each SpinCo Option will be exercisable from and after the Effective Time for that whole number of shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock subject to such SpinCo Option, multiplied by the Base Exchange Ratio, and (ii) the exercise price per share for each such share of Domesticated Parent Common Stock shall be equal to the exercise price per share of such SpinCo Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by the Base Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded up to the nearest full cent). The assumption of the SpinCo Options by Parent is intended to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1 (to the extent such SpinCo Options were intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Code Section 422) and of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) (for SpinCo Options not so qualifying).

(c) Parent Securities. Each share of Domesticated Parent Common Stock, each Domesticated Parent Right and each Domesticated Parent Unit that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to and at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding immediately following the Effective Time, except to the extent as otherwise provided in the Parent Governing Documents or Rights Agreement (including in respect of automatic conversion of the Domesticated Parent Rights or redemption of the Domesticated Parent Common Stock).

3.2 Exchange Fund.

(a) At or substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, Parent shall issue, and shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Outstanding SpinCo Shares, for exchange in accordance with this Section 3.2, the number of Domesticated Parent Common Stock in book-entry form sufficient to represent the Merger Consideration (the “Exchange Fund”). Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to distribute, immediately following the Effective Time, pursuant to irrevocable instructions from the Parent, the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

11

(b) Distributions After the Effective Time. Subject to the following sentence, no dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Domesticated Parent Common Stock shall be paid with respect to any shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock that are not able to be delivered by the Exchange Agent promptly after the Effective Time, whether due to a legal impediment to such delivery or otherwise. Subject to the effect of abandoned property, escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, following the delivery of any such previously undelivered shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock, there shall be paid to the record holder of such shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock, without interest, at the time of delivery, to the extent not previously paid, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock.

(c) No Liability. None of the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Merger Sub, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable for shares of Domesticated Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto or with respect to SpinCo Common Stock) or cash properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(d) Closing of Transfer Books. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of SpinCo shall be closed, and no transfer shall be made of any shares of capital stock of SpinCo that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e) Tax Withholding. Parent, the Company, SpinCo, Merger Sub and the Exchange Agent shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

3.3 Appraisal Rights. In consideration of the benefits to be received by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company waives any rights to appraisal that may otherwise be available under the DGCL in connection with the Merger.

5.7 Sufficiency of the SpinCo Assets.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 5.7 of the SpinCo Disclosure Schedule, on the Closing Date, assuming receipt of all consents, approvals and authorizations relating to the matters set forth in Section 4.3 and Section 5.5, the SpinCo Assets, taking into account the Shared Services Agreement, the Amended and Restated Shared Services Agreement, and the license granted pursuant to Section 7.18(c), constitute all the properties, assets and rights forming a part of, used, held or intended to be used in, the SpinCo Business, and constitute all of the assets, properties and rights reasonably necessary for Parent and the Surviving Corporation to conduct the SpinCo Business immediately following the Closing in all material respects and in substantially the same manner as it is conducted on the date hereof.

17

(b) The Company has caused the SpinCo Assets that are material tangible assets or personal property (“Tangible Personal Property”) to be maintained in accordance with good business and industry practice, and such SpinCo Assets are in good operating condition and repair and are suitable for the purposes for which they are used and intended to be used, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

(c) Except for Permitted Liens, SpinCo has good, valid and marketable title to, or a valid leasehold in, license to or other legal right to use, as the case may be, all of the SpinCo Assets, free and clear of any Liens other than Permitted Liens.

Any leases related to the Tangible Personal Property are valid and binding against the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and to the Knowledge of the SpinCo Group, the counterparty thereto, and are in full force and effect and are enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the Remedies Exception.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has waived any material rights under any license or lease related to the Tangible Personal Property. To the Knowledge of the SpinCo Group, no event has occurred which either entitles, or, on notice or lapse of time or both, would entitle the other party to any license or lease related to the Tangible Personal Property with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to declare a default or to accelerate, or which does accelerate, the maturity of any obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries under any such license or lease.

18

(b) There are no outstanding loans or other extensions of credit made by SpinCo to any executive officer (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act) or director of SpinCo. SpinCo has not taken any action prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

5.10 Litigation and Proceedings. There are no Actions pending or, to the Knowledge of the SpinCo Group, threatened against SpinCo or the Company with respect to the SpinCo Business or affecting any of the SpinCo Assets. Neither SpinCo nor the Company (solely in respect of the SpinCo Assets) is subject to any Order (nor, to the Knowledge of the SpinCo Group, are there any such Orders threatened to be imposed by any Governmental Authority) which has materially and adversely affected SpinCo or the SpinCo Business or would reasonably be expected to materially or adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Transaction Document or the consummation of the Transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

With respect to the Company Real Property, (i) the Company or its applicable Subsidiary has good and valid title (or the applicable local equivalent) or a valid and enforceable leasehold interest, as applicable, in such Company Real Property, free and clear of any Liens, subject to the Remedies Exception and other than Permitted Liens, and (ii) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received (A) written notice of any pending condemnation, expropriation, eminent domain or similar Action affecting all or any portion of such Company Real Property (to the extent relating to or affecting the SpinCo Business) or (B) written notice of default or breach of any Company Leased Property.

(a) Except as not required in reliance on exemptions from various reporting requirements by virtue of Parent’s status as an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), Parent has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act). Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to Parent, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, if any, is made known to Parent’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others within those entities as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications required pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, particularly during the periods in which the periodic reports required under the Exchange Act are being prepared. To the Parent’s Knowledge, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting Parent’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to material information required to be included in Parent’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act. Parent has established and maintained a system of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act) that are designed to and, to the Parent’s Knowledge, are sufficient to provide, reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of Parent’s financial reporting and the preparation of Parent’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, including policies and procedures sufficient to provide reasonable assurance: (i) that Parent maintains records that in reasonable detail fairly reflect, in all material respects, its transactions and dispositions of assets of Parent; (ii) that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP; (iii) that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and Parent Board; and (iv) regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of its assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements. Parent has not received written notice from any Governmental Authority or Person alleging, and to the Parent’s Knowledge there have been no, significant deficiencies or material weakness in Parent’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated). Since June 30, 2023, there has been no change in Parent’s control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Parent’s internal control over financial reporting.

(b) As of the date hereof, each director and executive officer of Parent has filed with the SEC on a timely basis all statements required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Parent has not taken any action prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

38

(c) The financial statements and notes contained or incorporated by reference in the Parent SEC Filings (the “Parent Financial Statements”) (i) accurately and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and the results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Parent as at the respective dates of, and for the periods referred to, in such financial statements, all in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) comply in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements and with the rules and regulations of Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable, subject, in the case of interim financial statements, to normal recurring year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not, individually or in the aggregate, be material) and the omission of notes to the extent permitted by Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, as applicable. Parent has no off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined by Regulation S-K) that are not disclosed in the Parent SEC Filings. No financial statements other than those of Parent are required by GAAP to be included in the Parent Financial Statements.

(d) There are no outstanding loans or other extensions of credit made by Parent to any executive officer (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act) or director of Parent. Parent has not taken any action prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

(e) Neither Parent (including any employee thereof) nor Parent’s independent auditors has identified or been made aware of (i) any significant deficiency or material weakness in the system of internal accounting controls utilized by Parent, (ii) any Actual Fraud, whether or not material, that involves Parent’s management or other employees who have a role in the preparation of the Parent Financial Statements or the internal accounting controls utilized by Parent or (iii) any claim or allegation regarding any of the foregoing.

6.7 No Undisclosed Liabilities. Except for the Parent Transaction Expenses, there is no liability, debt or obligation of or claim or judgment against Parent or Merger Sub (whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, or due or to become due), except for liabilities and obligations (i) reflected or reserved for on the financial statements or disclosed in the notes thereto included in Parent SEC Filings, (ii) that have arisen since the date of the most recent balance sheet included in the Parent SEC Filings in the ordinary course of business of Parent and Merger Sub, or (iii) which, individually or in the aggregate, would not be, or would not reasonably be expected to be, material to Parent.

Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (1) solicit from its shareholders proxies in favor of the approval of the proposals required under the Parent Shareholder Approval, and (2) take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the Parent Shareholder Approval. Subject to Section 7.4(e)(iii), neither the Parent Board nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend, qualify or modify its recommendation to the Parent Shareholders that they vote in favor of the Transaction Proposals.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.4 to the contrary, if, at any time prior to obtaining the Parent Shareholder Approval, the Parent Board determines, in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel of the applicable jurisdiction, that an Intervening Event has occurred and that, as a result thereof, a failure to withdraw or modify a Parent Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with the Parent Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Parent Board may withdraw or modify such Parent Board Recommendation; provided that the Parent shall not withdraw or modify such Parent Board Recommendation unless (i) Parent first delivers to the Company a written notice advising the Company that the Parent Board proposes to take such action and containing the material facts underlying the Parent Board’s determination that an Intervening Event has occurred and that a failure to withdraw or modify a Parent Board Recommendation would constitute a breach by the Parent Board of its fiduciary obligations under applicable Law (an “Intervening Event Notice”), and (ii) at or after 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on the fourth (4th) Business Day immediately following the day on which Parent delivered the Intervening Event Notice (such period from the time the Intervening Event Notice is provided until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the fourth (4th) Business Day immediately following the day on which Parent delivered the Intervening Event Notice (it being understood that any material development with respect to an Intervening Event shall require a new notice, but with an additional three (3) Business Day (instead of four (4) Business Day) period from the date of such notice), the “Intervening Event Notice Period”), the Parent Board reaffirms in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that a failure to withdraw or modify such Parent Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with the Parent Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law. If requested by the Company, Parent shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, during the Intervening Event Notice Period, engage in good faith negotiations with the Company and its Representatives to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so as to obviate the need for any withdrawal or modification of such Parent Board Recommendation.

If the applicable Extension Fee is less than the respective amount specified in Section 7.16(b)(i), the Company will be obligated to pay only such lesser amount of the actual Extension Fee.

The Confidentiality Agreement shall not be affected by any termination of this Agreement.

67

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, except in the case of Actual Fraud or Willful Breach, if the Termination Fee is paid pursuant to Section 9.3(a), such payment(s) shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent, Merger Sub, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, Representatives or assignees against the Company, SpinCo, any of their respective Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, Representatives or assignees (together with the Company, collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) for all losses and damages suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

(d) Each of the Parties acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement and (iii) the Termination Fee does not constitute a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

9.4 Fees and Expenses. Except (a) for the filing fee incurred in connection with the filings with any Governmental Authorities pursuant to Section 7.5(b), which will be borne by the Company, or (b) as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all fees and expenses incurred by the Parties shall be borne solely by the Party that has incurred such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

10.7 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any Party may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered pursuant hereto and any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or (without limiting Section 10.7(b)) agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Persons) as this Agreement.

10.9 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties agree and acknowledge that the failure to perform under this Agreement will cause an actual, immediate and irreparable harm and injury and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the Transactions) or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that, (i) each of the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief, each without proof of damages prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (ii) prior to the Closing or any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, damages shall be awarded only in a case where a court of competent jurisdiction determines that, notwithstanding the Parties’ intention for specific performance to be the applicable remedy prior to termination or the Closing, such specific performance is not available or otherwise will not be granted as a remedy.

(b) The Parties further agree that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 10.9, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement, including monetary damages, subject to the terms hereof, (ii) nothing contained in this Section 10.9 shall require any Party to institute any proceeding for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 10.9 before exercising any termination right under Section 9.1 (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Action pursuant to this Section 10.9 or anything contained in this Section 10.9 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 9.1 or to pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter; (iii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement; and (iv) no Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 10.9, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

72

(c) To the extent either party hereto brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10.9, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

10.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE (AND SHALL CAUSE THEIR SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES TO WAIVE) THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS, OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT (INCLUDING ANY SCHEDULE OR EXHIBIT HERETO AND THERETO) OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF SUCH AGREEMENTS OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF SUCH AGREEMENTS. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS, ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS. NO PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 10.10. NO PARTY OR REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY PARTY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.10 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

10.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof. The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the Parties.

10.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by electronic or .pdf transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of any signature page by facsimile, electronic or .pdf transmission shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

10.13 Disclosure Schedules. The Company Disclosure Schedule, the SpinCo Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Disclosure Schedule” and, collectively, the “Disclosure Schedules”) (including, in each case, any section thereof) referenced herein are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein. All references herein to the Company Disclosure Schedule, SpinCo Disclosure Schedule and Parent Disclosure Schedule (including, in each case, any section thereof) shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require. Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Schedules is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information in any Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute in itself an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality.

Execution Version

sponsor support AGREEMENT

THIS SPONSOR SUPPORT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of October 23, 2023, by and among 10XYZ Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Sponsor”), TenX Keane Acquisition, a Cayman Islands exempted company (which will migrate to and domesticate as a Delaware corporation prior to the Closing) (“Parent”), Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Citius Oncology, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“SpinCo”, and following the Closing, the “Surviving Corporation”). Sponsor, Parent, the Company and SpinCo are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party.” Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS:

A. As of the date hereof, Sponsor is the holder of record and the “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of 2,044,000 shares of Parent Common Stock and 394,000 Parent Rights.

B. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, TenX Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), the Company, and SpinCo have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (as amended or modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof.

C. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL, following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo (the “Merger”), and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company in the Merger.

D. As an inducement to Parent, the Company and SpinCo to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated therein, the Parties desire to agree to certain matters as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Binding Effect of Merger Agreement. Sponsor hereby acknowledges that it has read the Merger Agreement and this Agreement and has had the opportunity to consult with its tax and legal advisors. Sponsor agrees not to, directly or indirectly, take any action, or authorize or knowingly permit any of its Affiliates or representatives to take any action on its behalf, that would be a breach of Section 7.7(e) (Permitted Activities and Exclusivity) or Section 7.8 (Public Announcements) of the Merger Agreement if such action were taken by Parent.

2. No Transfer. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (a) the Effective Time and (b) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Article IX thereof (the earlier of clauses (a) and (b), the “Expiration Time”), Sponsor shall not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the SEC (other than the Parent Registration Statement) or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to any Parent Common Stock, Parent Rights or any other shares of capital stock or warrants of Parent that Sponsor is the holder of record and the “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) to which Sponsor has voting rights (collectively, “Subject Securities”), (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Subject Securities, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii).

3. New Shares. In the event that, including in respect of the Domestication, (a) any Parent Common Stock, Parent Unit, Parent Right, Domesticated Parent Common Stock, Domesticated Parent Right or other equity securities of Parent are issued to Sponsor after the date of this Agreement pursuant to (i) any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights of, on, or affecting the Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights owned by Sponsor or otherwise, or (ii) by conversion pursuant to the terms of the promissory notes issued, or to be issued, to the Sponsor by Parent evidencing the Sponsor’s deposits of up to and aggregate of $2,115,000 into the Trust Account to extend the timeline to complete a business combination (each an “Extension Promissory Note” and, collectively, the “Extension Promissory Notes”); provided, that such conversion of the Extension Promissory Notes shall occur only to the extent any amounts remain outstanding under the Extension Promissory Notes after taking into account any reimbursements paid to the Sponsor in respect of outstanding amounts under the Extension Promissory Notes pursuant to Section 7 below, (b) Sponsor purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of any Parent Common Stock, Parent Rights or other equity securities of Parent after the date of this Agreement, or (c) Sponsor acquires the right to vote or share in the voting of any Parent Common Stock or other equity securities of Parent after the date of this Agreement (such Parent Common Stock, Parent Units, Parent Rights or other equity securities of Parent, collectively the “New Securities”), then such New Securities acquired or purchased by Sponsor shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted the Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights owned by Sponsor as of the date hereof.

4. Support Agreements.

(a) At any meeting of the shareholders of Parent, however called, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the shareholders of Parent is sought, Sponsor shall (i) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all of its Parent Common Stock to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (ii) vote (or cause to be voted), or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) covering, all of its Subject Securities:

(i) in favor of each of the Transaction Proposals and in favor of any proposal in respect of an Extension Amendment;

2

(ii) against (or otherwise withhold written consent of, as applicable) any Business Combination or any proposal relating to a Business Combination (in each case, other than as contemplated by the Merger Agreement);

(iii) against (or otherwise withhold written consent of, as applicable) any merger agreement or merger, consolidation, combination, sale of substantial assets, reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of or by Parent (other than the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby);

(iv) against (or otherwise withhold written consent of, as applicable) any change in the business, management or board of directors of Parent (other than in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby); and

(v) against (or otherwise withhold written consent of, as applicable) any proposal, action or agreement that would (A) impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation, warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Parent or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement, (C) result in any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1(c), Section 8.1(f), or Section 8.2 of the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled or (D) change in any manner the dividend policy or capitalization of, including the voting rights of any class of capital stock of, Parent.

Sponsor hereby agrees that it shall not commit or agree to take any action inconsistent with the foregoing, and shall not deposit any of its Parent Common Stock in a voting trust, grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect to any of its Parent Common Stock or subject any of its Parent Common Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Parent Common Stock unless specifically requested to do so by the Company and Parent in writing in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

(b) Sponsor shall comply with, and fully perform all of its obligations, covenants and agreements set forth in, that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of October 13, 2022, by and among Sponsor, Parent and its directors and officers (the “Sponsor Letter”).

(c) Sponsor agrees that, if Parent seeks shareholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any Transaction Documents, Sponsor shall not redeem any Subject Securities owned by it in conjunction with such shareholder approval or the transactions contemplated thereby.

(d) During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Expiration Time, Sponsor shall not modify or amend any Contract between or among Sponsor or any of its Affiliates (other than Parent or any of its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and Parent or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries, on the other hand.

3

5. Payment Obligations of Parent Transaction Expenses at Closing. On the Closing Date, in connection with the Effective Time, Sponsor shall pay in full, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, any Parent Estimated Transaction Expenses in excess of $500,000, in accordance with the Payment Schedule.

6. Payment Obligations of Parent Transaction Expenses post-Closing.

(a) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation will prepare and deliver to Sponsor a statement (the “Closing Statement”) containing the actual amount of all Parent Transaction Expenses (including those invoiced following the Closing). The Surviving Corporation shall provide Sponsor with reasonable access to its books and records as may be reasonably requested by Sponsor to verify the information contained in the Closing Statement.

(b) Dispute Resolution.

(i) Within thirty (30) days following Sponsor’s receipt of the Closing Statement, Sponsor will deliver written notice to the Surviving Corporation of any dispute with respect to the Closing Statement, setting forth such disputed item in reasonable detail (a “Closing Statement Dispute”). If Sponsor does not notify the Surviving Corporation of any Closing Statement Dispute within such thirty (30)-day period, then the Closing Statement and the determinations and calculations of the Parent Transaction Expenses set forth therein will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. If Sponsor delivers to the Surviving Corporation a Closing Statement Dispute, then Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation will negotiate in good faith to resolve all disputed matters set forth in the Closing Statement Dispute. If Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve the Closing Statement Dispute within thirty (30) days (or longer, as mutually agreed to by such Parties in writing) after Sponsor delivers to the Surviving Corporation notice of the Closing Statement Dispute, then Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation jointly will mutually agree on and jointly engage an independent auditor that is experienced in such matters (the “Independent Auditor”) to promptly resolve any and all unresolved matters of the Closing Statement Dispute.

(ii) The Independent Auditor shall consider only those items and amounts set forth in the Closing Statement Dispute that are identified by either Sponsor or the Surviving Corporation as being items that Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation are unable to resolve. As promptly as practicable thereafter, Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation will each prepare and submit a written presentation to the Independent Auditor (each of which will be shared with the other party, but not until such time that both Parties have submitted their presentations) and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to make a final determination with respect to the Parties’ respective positions based upon the applicable language, definitions and Exhibits of the Merger Agreement, and the presentations by Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation.

4

(iii) In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Auditor will be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Merger Agreement, will serve as an expert and not an arbitrator, and will not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. Except as Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation may otherwise agree, all communications between any Party or its respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Auditor, on the other hand, will be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating Party (except in such cases where both Parties are submitting a presentation). The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Auditor will be borne by Sponsor and the Surviving Corporation in inverse proportion, as determined by the Independent Auditor, as they may prevail on the matter resolved by the Independent Auditor. Absent fraud, all determinations made by the Independent Auditor will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Parties agree that judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Independent Auditor in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced.

(iv) If the Parent Transaction Expenses (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 6(b)) is greater than the Parent Estimated Transaction Expenses and greater than $500,000, then Sponsor will pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Parent, an amount in cash equal to (A) the amount by which the Parent Transaction Expenses exceeds $500,000 minus (B) the amount, if any, that Sponsor paid at Closing in respect of Parent Estimated Transaction Expenses pursuant to Section 5 above.

(v) Any payment required pursuant to this Section 6(b) will be made within five (5) Business Days after the date of final determination of the Parent Transaction Expenses in accordance with this Section 6(b).

(vi) Each party will reasonably cooperate with and make available to the other party and its respective accountants and other Representatives all information, records, data and working papers, and will permit access to its records, facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably requested in connection with this Section 6(b), including the resolution of any matters or disputes hereunder.

(vii) Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the Parties agree that any payments made pursuant to this Section 6(b) will be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes.

7. Payment Obligations of Parent after the Closing.

(a) After the Closing and upon the liquidation of the Trust Account in accordance Section 1(i) of the Trust Agreement, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Sponsor the amounts due and payable under the Extension Promissory Notes, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) business days after the Closing, as provided in this Section 7. Parent’s obligation to pay or cause to be paid to the Sponsor such amounts only will arise if each of the following conditions has been satisfied:

5

(i) the Parent Common Stock (or Domesticated Parent Common Stock, as the case may be) must have redeemed from each Public Shareholder (as such term is defined in the Trust Agreement) that properly elected to have his, her, or its Parent Common Stock redeemed;

(ii) at least $2,000,000 or more of the liquidated Trust Account Property (as such term is defined in the Trust Agreement) must remain after payment in full for all such redemptions described in Section 7(a)(i); and

(iii) Parent must have reimbursed the Company pursuant to Section 7.16(b)(iii) of the Merger Agreement (the “Company Extension Fee Reimbursement”).

(b) If each of the conditions specified in Sections 7(a) are satisfied, then the Parent will reimburse the Sponsor the amounts due and payable under the Extension Promissory Notes to the extent any amounts remain of the liquidated Trust Account Property after giving effect to the payments from the liquidated Trust Account Property specified in Sections 7(a)(i) and Section 7(a)(iii). If (i) the amount remaining in the liquidated Trust Account Property after payment in full of the amounts required to redeem Parent Common Stock (or Domesticated Parent Common Stock, as the case may be) as described in Section 7(a)(i) is less than $2,000,000 or (ii) the Company Extension Fee Reimbursement is not paid in full, Parent will not be obligated to make any payment to Sponsor in respect of the Extension Promissory Notes, and all amounts remaining under the Extension Promissory Notes will be convertible into Domesticated Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(a)(ii) above and the terms of the Extension Promissory Notes. If, after the Company Extension Fee Reimbursement has been paid in full, the amount of liquidated Trust Account Property remaining is not sufficient to repay the total amount due and payable under the Extension Promissory Notes, Parent shall pay such remaining amount of the liquidated Trust Account Property to the Sponsor, and any unpaid portion remaining under the Extension Promissory Notes will be convertible into Domesticated Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(a)(ii) above and the terms of the Extension Promissory Notes. The remaining liquidated Trust Account Property will serve as the only source of funds for purposes of any payments to the Sponsor under this Section 7.

8. No Actions. Sponsor hereby agrees not to commence or participate in any claim, derivative or otherwise, against the Company, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or (b) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the board of directors of Parent in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction Proposals, the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.

9. Permitted Disclosure. Sponsor hereby authorizes each of Parent, the Company, and their respective Subsidiaries to publish and disclose, in any announcement, filing or disclosure required to be made by any Order or other applicable Law or the rules of any national securities exchange or as requested by the SEC, Sponsor’s identity and ownership of equity securities of Parent and Sponsor’s obligations under this Agreement.

6

10. Anti-Dilution Waiver. Sponsor hereby agrees that Sponsor shall waive, and hereby does waive, any and all anti-dilution or similar rights (if any) that may otherwise be available under applicable Law or pursuant to any Contract between or among Sponsor or any Affiliate of Sponsor (other than Parent or any of its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and Parent or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and that it shall not take any action in furtherance of exercising any such rights.

11. Stop Orders. Parent hereby agrees to (a) place a revocable stop order on Sponsor’s Parent Common Stock, including those which may be covered by a registration statement, and (b) notify Parent’s transfer agent in writing of such stop order and the restrictions on such Parent Common Stock and direct Parent’s transfer agent not to process any attempts by Sponsor to transfer any Parent Common Stock; for the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of Parent under this Section 11 shall be deemed to be satisfied by the existence of any similar stop order and restrictions currently existing on Sponsor’s Parent Common Stock.

12. No Inconsistent Agreement. Sponsor hereby agrees and represents and covenants that Sponsor has not entered into, and shall not enter into, any agreement that would restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of Sponsor’s obligations hereunder.

13. Further Assurances. Sponsor shall execute and deliver such documents and take such action necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein and herein.

14. A&R Registration Rights Agreement. On the Closing Date, Sponsor shall deliver to Parent and the Company a duly executed copy of the A&R Registration Rights Agreement.

15. Representations and Warranties of Sponsor. Sponsor represents and warrants to Parent and the Company as follows:

(a) Organization; Due Authorization. Sponsor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within Sponsor’s corporate, limited liability company or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or organizational actions on the part of Sponsor. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Sponsor and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties to this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of Sponsor, enforceable against Sponsor in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity. If this Agreement is being executed in a representative or fiduciary capacity, the Person signing this Agreement has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement on behalf of Sponsor.

7

(b) Ownership. Sponsor is the record and “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of, and has good title to, all of its Parent Common Stock and Parent Rights, and there exist no Liens or any other limitation or restriction (including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such Parent Common Stock and Parent Rights (other than transfer restrictions under the Securities Act)) affecting any such Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights, or after the Domestication, any Domesticated Parent Common Stock or Domesticated Parent Right, other than Liens pursuant to (i) this Agreement, (ii) Parent’s and Sponsor’s Governing Documents, (iii) the Merger Agreement, (iv) the agreements entered into by Sponsor with Parent in connection with Parent’s initial public offering or (v) any applicable securities Laws. Sponsor’s Parent Common Stock and Parent Rights are the only equity securities in Parent owned of record or beneficially by Sponsor on the date of this Agreement, and none of Sponsor’s Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights are subject to any proxy, voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights, except as provided hereunder and pursuant to the Sponsor Letter. Other than the Parent Rights and the Parent Common Stock, Sponsor does not hold or own any rights to acquire (directly or indirectly) any equity securities of Parent or any equity securities convertible into, or which can be exchanged for, equity securities of Parent.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Sponsor does not, and the performance by Sponsor of its obligations hereunder will not, (i) conflict with or result in a violation of the Governing Documents of Sponsor or (ii) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any Person (including under any Contract binding upon Sponsor or Sponsor’s Parent Common Stock or Parent Rights), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by Sponsor of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement.

(d) Litigation. There are no Actions pending against Sponsor, or to the knowledge of Sponsor threatened against Sponsor, before (or, in the case of threatened Actions, that would be before) any arbitrator or any Governmental Authority, which in any manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by Sponsor of its, his or her obligations under this Agreement. Sponsor has not instigated an action regarding the transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement.

(e) Brokerage Fees. No broker, finder, investment banker or other Person is entitled to any brokerage fee, finders’ fee or other commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement based upon arrangements made by Sponsor, for which Parent or any of its Affiliates may become liable.

(f) Affiliate Arrangements. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(f) hereto, neither Sponsor nor, to the knowledge of Sponsor, any Person in which Sponsor has a direct or indirect legal, contractual or beneficial ownership of 5% or more is party to, or has any rights with respect to or arising from, any Contract with Parent or its Subsidiaries.

(g) Acknowledgment. Sponsor understands and acknowledges that each of Parent, the Company and SpinCo is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon Sponsor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.

8

16. Termination. This Agreement and all of its provisions shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of (a) the Expiration Time and (b) the written agreement of Sponsor, Parent and the Company. Upon such termination of this Agreement, all obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, without any liability or other obligation on the part of any party hereto to any Person in respect hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby, and no party hereto shall have any claim against another (and no person shall have any rights against such party), whether under contract, tort or otherwise, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party from liability arising in respect of any breach of this Agreement prior to such termination. Sections 15 through 25 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

17. Amendment. This Agreement cannot be amended, except by a writing signed by each of the Parties, and cannot be terminated orally or by course of conduct. No provision hereof can be waived, except by a writing signed by the Party against whom such waiver is to be enforced, and any such waiver shall apply only in the particular instance in which such waiver shall have been given.

18. Assignment. No Party may assign any right or delegate any obligation hereunder, including by merger, consolidation, operation of law, or otherwise, without the written consent of the other Parties. Any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void, in addition to constituting a material breach of this Agreement.

19. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

20. Jurisdiction. Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby must be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware), or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and each of the parties irrevocably (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such proceeding or Action, (b) waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, (c) agrees that all claims in respect of the proceeding or Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and (d) agrees not to bring any proceeding or Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence any Action or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 20.

21. Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the chancery court or any other state or federal court within the State of Delaware, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at Law or in equity.

3.1.2 prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by the Holders or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus or have ceased to be Registrable Securities;

8

3.1.3 not later than five (5) days prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such holders, provided, that the Company shall have no obligation to furnish any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”);

3.1.4 prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request (or provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Holders that the Registrable Securities are exempt from such registration or qualification) and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

3.1.5 use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities included in any registration to be listed on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or designated or, if no such similar securities are then listed or designated, in a manner satisfactory to the holders of a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities included in such registration;

3.1.6 provide a transfer agent as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

3.1.7 advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

3.1.8 notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;

3.1.9 permit a representative of the Holders (such representative to be selected by a majority of the participating Holders), the Underwriters, if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter to participate, at each such person’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives or Underwriters enter into a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;

3.1.10 obtain a “comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Registration which the participating Holders may rely on, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “comfort” letters for transactions of its type as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;

9

3.1.11 on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, obtain an opinion, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters;

3.1.12 in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering;

3.1.13 make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), and which requirement will be deemed to be satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information on Forms 10-Q, 10-K or 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

3.1.14 if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $60,000,000, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in such Underwritten Offering; and

3.1.15 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in connection with such Registration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to provide any documents or information to an Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent if such Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent has not then been named with respect to the applicable Underwritten Offering or other offering involving a Registration as an Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent, as applicable.

3.2 Registration Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.

3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Holder does not provide the Company with its requested Holder Information, the Company may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus if the Company determines, based on the advice of counsel, that it is necessary or advisable to review such information prior to filing, or include such information in, the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus and such Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information. In addition, no person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would (a) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, (b) require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, or (c) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the Board such Registration, would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the majority of the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at such time, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time reasonably practicable, but in no event more than ninety (90) days, determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until such Holder receives written notice from the Company that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents. The Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.

10

3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.5. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

ARTICLE V

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

5.1 Indemnification.

5.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including actual, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

5.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation actual, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

5.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

13

5.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

5.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 5.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 5.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 5.1.1, 5.1.2 and 5.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 5.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 5.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 5.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE VI

6.2.2 Prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period, no Holder may assign or delegate such Holder’s rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, except in connection with a transfer of Registrable Securities by such Holder to a Permitted Transferee but only if such Permitted Transferee agrees to become bound by the transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

6.2.3 This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and its successors and the permitted assigns of the Holders, which shall include Permitted Transferees.

Any transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 6.2 shall be null and void.

6.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile or PDF counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same instrument, but only one of which need be produced.

No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

6.6 Other Registration Rights.

Exhibit A sets forth the Services Citius will provide to the Company as of the Effective Time, which Services are substantially similar to the Services provided or procured by Citius and used in the operation of the business of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time. Citius shall provide and devote to the performance of this Agreement such employees and agents of Citius as Citius shall deem appropriate to the furnishing of the Services hereunder.

Citius shall devote such time and efforts to the performance of Services contemplated hereby as Citius deems reasonably necessary or appropriate; provided, however, that no minimum number of hours is required to be devoted by Citius on a weekly, monthly, annual or other basis. The Company acknowledges that Citius’s Services are not exclusive to the Company and that Citius may render similar Services to other persons and entities.

Citius covenants that the Services will be performed in a diligent, timely, efficient, workmanlike and commercially reasonable manner and in a fashion designed to support the business of the Company in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same standard as the business is conducted prior to the Effective Time, and, with respect to specific Services, in accordance with the standards, if any, set forth on Exhibit A with respect to such Services or as otherwise agreed. In performing the Services, Citius agrees that part of its responsibilities shall be to review, to the extent applicable, the regulations and laws applicable to the Services to be provided hereunder, and to reflect any such regulations, laws or requirements in the performance of Services to the Company.

Citius may change operational aspects of the Services or the way in which they are provided, or substitute them with other services, so long as the Services are provided or procured to substantially the same standards as they were provided immediately prior to the Effective Time. If changes or substitutions are made, Citius shall use reasonable efforts so that:

(i) the Services are not disrupted; and

2

(ii) the change or substitution does not result in an increase in the Service Fees, unless the Company has agreed to the increase in advance.

2.2 Freedom to Pursue Opportunities and Limitation on Liability.

2.2.1 Freedom to Pursue Opportunities. In recognition that the Company and Citius and its wholly owned and partly owned subsidiaries engage and may in the same or similar activities or lines of business and have an interest in the same general areas of corporate opportunities, and in recognition of the benefits to be derived by the Company hereunder, each of the Company and Citius wish to guide the conduct of certain affairs of the Company as they may involve Citius.

Except as Citius may otherwise agree in writing after the date hereof:

(i)	Citius will have the right: (A) to directly or indirectly engage in any business including, without limitation, any business activities or lines of business that are the same as the Company’s or its affiliates or similar to those pursued by the Company or its affiliates, or (B) to directly or indirectly do business with any client or customer of the Company or its affiliates; provided that Citius does not compete with the Company in the area of developing treatments for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma or peripheral T-cell lymphoma, immuno-oncology treatments and other oncology treatments
(ii)	Citius will have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present any corporate opportunities to the Company that do not violate this Section 2.2.1.
(iii)	Neither Citius nor any officer, director, employee, partner, member, stockholder, affiliate or associated entity thereof will be liable to the Company or its affiliates for breach of any duty (contractual or otherwise) by reason of any activities or omissions of the types referred to in this Section 2.2.1 or of any such person’s participation therein.

3. Term. Citius shall provide the Services set forth in Section 2 above from the Effective Time until the earlier of (a) termination of this Agreement by mutual agreement of Citius and the Company and (b) the 2^nd anniversary of this Agreement; provided that this Agreement shall be automatically extended for additional one-year periods unless Citius or the Company provides written notice of its desire not to automatically extend the term of this Agreement to the other Parties hereto at least thirty (30) days prior to such date (such period, the “Term”).

No termination of this Agreement, whether pursuant to this Section 3 or otherwise, will affect the Company’s duty to pay any Service Fee (as defined herein in Section 4) accrued, or to reimburse any cost or expense incurred pursuant to Section 5 hereof, prior to the effective date of such termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, Citius’s right to receive any further Service Fee or reimbursement for costs and expenses that have not accrued or been incurred to the date of termination shall cease and terminate. Additionally, the obligations of the Company under Section 5 (Expenses), Section 7 (Indemnification), the provisions of Section 2.2.2 above (whether in respect of or relating to Services rendered prior to termination of this Agreement or in respect of or relating to any Services provided after termination of this Agreement), the provisions of Section 9 (Confidentiality) (for the term provided therein) and the provisions of Section 21 (Governing Law) will also survive any termination of this Agreement to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.

4. Compensation.

4.1 The Company and Citius agree that the compensation set forth in this Agreement is being paid to Citius in consideration of the Services provided and the substantial commitment and effort made by Citius hereunder, and that such fees have been negotiated at arms’ length and are fair, reasonable and consistent with fair market value. Citius shall be paid a quarterly fee (the “Service Fee”) as set forth on Exhibit A hereto, which may be amended from time to time upon mutual agreement of the Parties.

4.2 Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, any payment pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made in cash by wire transfer(s) of immediately available funds to or among one or more accounts as designated from time-to-time by Citius to the Company in writing.

4.3 It is hereby acknowledged that the Company shall have no payment obligations hereunder other than as set forth in this Section 4 and in Section 5 for the Services to be performed hereunder (including, without limitation, the Services as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto), and the Company’s indemnity obligations to Citius under Section 7.

4.4 In the event any Service is terminated other than at the end of a payment period under the applicable underlying arrangement, such period’s associated costs shall be pro-rated based on the number of days in such period prior to the termination date.

5. Expenses. Actual and direct out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Citius and its personnel in performing the Services shall be reimbursed to Citius by the Company upon the delivery to the Company of an invoice, receipt or such other supporting data as the Company reasonably shall require.

6. Independent Contractor. Citius shall act solely as an independent contractor and shall have complete charge of its respective personnel engaged in the performance of the Services under this Agreement. Neither Citius nor its officers, employees or agents will be considered employees or agents of the Company as a result of this Agreement.

7.1 Indemnification. Subject to the applicable limitations set forth in this Section 7, the Company shall indemnify Citius, its affiliates (other than the Company or TenX) and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Citius Indemnified Party”), to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, liabilities, losses, damages and costs and expenses in connection therewith, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (“Indemnified Liabilities”) to which the Citius Indemnified Party may become subject, directly or indirectly caused by, related to or arising out of the Services or any other advice or Services contemplated by this Agreement or the engagement of Citius pursuant to, and the performance by Citius of the Services contemplated by, this Agreement.

7.2 Subject to the applicable limitations set forth in this Section 7, Citius shall indemnify the Company, its affiliates (other than Citius) and their respective directors, officers and employees (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Party”), harmless from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities to which the Company Indemnified Party may become subject, directly or indirectly caused by, related to or arising out based upon or related to the Services performed for the Company hereunder to the extent that any such Indemnified Liabilities were the result of, arise out of, or are based upon, (i) a breach of the provisions of this Agreement caused by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Citius, or (ii) any action or inaction of Citius, its affiliates or its third party contractors providing the Services, or their respective directors, officers, employees, contractors or agents at the request, at the direction, or with the consent, of the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees, representatives or agents.

7.3 An indemnifying party shall promptly reimburse the respective Indemnified Party for Indemnified Liabilities as incurred, in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party and whether or not such claim, action or proceeding is initiated or brought by or on behalf of the Company or Citius and whether or not resulting in any liability. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Parties hereby agree to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law.

7.4 Limited Liability. In no event shall either Party be liable under any provision of this Agreement to each or each other’s respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees or agents for indirect, special, incidental, consequential (including, without limitation, lost profits or savings, whether or not such damages are foreseeable) or punitive damages; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to any indirect, incidental, consequential (including lost profits) or punitive damages asserted or awarded to any third party for which Citius would otherwise be responsible under Section 7.2; provided, further, however, that Citius’s aggregate liability for all claims brought by the Company hereunder shall be limited to the total fees paid to Citius for the Services provided to the Company through the date of any claim, whether or not such claim arose under this Agreement or the Original Agreement.

7.5 An indemnifying party shall not be liable under the indemnification contained in Section 7.1 or 7.2, as applicable, hereof with respect to an Indemnified Party to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities are found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly from the Indemnified Party’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Parties further agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to such Indemnified Party’s securities holders or creditors related to or arising out of the engagement of Citius pursuant to, or the performance by Citius of the Services contemplated by, this Agreement.

Confidential Information of a Party hereto includes, but is not limited to, its product specifications and technical data, product designs/ideas, market/sales forecasts and information, proprietary materials, suppliers, tooling, all business trade secrets, financial and accounting data, customers and prospective customers, pricing information, and know-how.

The Receiving Party may only disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to the Receiving Party’s officers, directors, key employees, and financial and legal advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) who have the need to know such Confidential Information in order for the Receiving Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Such Representatives will be informed of and will agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section (or other terms and conditions that are no less protective of the Discloser’s Confidential Information than the terms herein), and the Receiving Party will remain responsible for any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information by its Representatives. The Receiving Party may also disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to the requirement or request of a governmental agency, a court or administrative subpoena, or an order or other legal process or requirement of law so long as it shall (i) first notify the Disclosing Party of such request or requirement, (ii) in the case of a required disclosure, furnish only such portion of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as it is advised in writing by counsel that it is legally required to disclose, and (iii) cooperate with the Disclosing Party in its efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to that portion of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may retain archival copies of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in accordance with policies and procedures designed to comply with legal, regulatory, and professional requirements, solely to demonstrate compliance therewith. This Section 9 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years; provided, however, that for any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as defined by applicable law), the obligations of this Section 9 shall survive until such Confidential Information is no longer a trade secret.

Exhibit 99.1

Citius Pharmaceuticals Executes Definitive Agreement to Merge Wholly Owned Subsidiary with TenX Keane Acquisition to Form Publicly Listed Citius Oncology, Inc.

Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to receive $675 million in equity of Citius Oncology, Inc. and retain approximately 90% majority control in publicly listed Citius Oncology, Inc. post transaction

Transaction anticipated to close in the first half of 2024

CRANFORD, N.J. and NEW YORK, N.Y., October 24, 2023 — Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Citius Pharma” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CTXR), a biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing first-in-class critical care products, and TenX Keane Acquisition (“TenX”) (NASDAQ: TENKU), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement, dated October 23, 2023, for a proposed merger of TenX and Citius Pharma’s wholly owned oncology subsidiary that will continue as a public company listed on the Nasdaq exchange. The newly combined public company will be named Citius Oncology, Inc. (“Citius Oncology”). Upon closing, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Citius Pharma would receive 67.5 million shares in Citius Oncology at $10 per share and retain majority ownership of approximately 90%. The transaction has been approved by the Board of Directors of both companies and is expected to close in the first half of 2024.

CITIUS ONCOLOGY OVERVIEW

Citius Oncology will serve as a platform to develop and commercialize novel targeted oncology therapies. The company is seeking approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of LYMPHIR for an orphan indication in the treatment of persistent or recurrent cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Management estimates the initial market for LYMPHIR currently exceeds $400 million, is growing and is underserved by existing therapies. If approved, LYMPHIR would be unique as the only IL-2 receptor targeted CTCL therapy, offering a novel option to patients cycling through multiple treatments. Robust intellectual property protections that span orphan drug designation, complex technology, trade secrets and pending patents for immuno-oncology use as a combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors would further support Citius Oncology’s competitive positioning.

Preparations are underway for a Biologics License Application (BLA) resubmission in early 2024. If approved, LYMPHIR could be commercially available as early as the second half of 2024 for the treatment of CTCL. Additional value creating opportunities in larger markets include potential indications in peripheral T-cell lymphoma or as a combination therapy with CAR-T and PD-1 inhibitors, and in markets outside the U.S. Currently, two investigator-initiated trials are underway to explore LYMPHIR’s potential as an immuno-oncology combination therapy.

The transaction is expected to provide Citius Oncology with improved access to the public equity markets and thereby facilitate the commercialization of LYMPHIR and position the company to explore additional value creating opportunities more fully.

CITIUS PHARMA AND TENX COMMENTS

“We believe this transaction will allow us to unlock the value of LYMPHIR, and solidly position Citius Pharma to advance our diversified pipeline. This transaction will enable Citius Oncology, with access to the broader capital markets, to better support the successful commercialization of LYMPHIR, if approved, and explore additional potential targeted oncology therapies. Our majority ownership position and shared services agreement ensures that the Citius Pharma management team will remain fully engaged with the development and commercialization efforts at Citius Oncology. As previously announced, the Company is in the process of formulating a plan of distribution of a portion of the shares of Citius Oncology to its shareholders. At Citius Pharma, we intend to focus on completing the Mino-Lok trial and continuing to evaluate next steps with our Halo-Lido program,” stated Leonard Mazur, Chairman and CEO of Citius Pharma.

“We are very pleased to announce the proposed merger with Citius Oncology,” said Mr. Xiaofeng Yuan, Chairman and CEO of TenX. “After undertaking a comprehensive process with external advisors to explore and evaluate numerous potential business combination targets, our board and management team believe that this transaction with Citius Oncology represents the best opportunity to create substantial value for our stockholders. This business combination, if consummated, will result in TenX investors owning an equity stake in a company that is focused on developing and commercializing LYMPHIR to improve the lives of patients with CTCL and additional potential upside from combinations with other drugs as immuno-oncology therapies with even larger addressable markets. We are thrilled to support Citius Oncology at an inflection point in its development and to provide an avenue for Citius to expeditiously meet its development milestones.”

THE PROPOSED MERGER AGREEMENT

Pursuant to the proposed agreement, TenX will acquire Citius Pharma’s wholly owned subsidiary via a merger, with the newly combined publicly traded company to be named Citius Oncology, Inc. In the transaction, all shares of Citius Pharma’s wholly owned subsidiary would be converted into the right to receive common stock of Citius Oncology. As a result, upon closing, Citius Pharma would receive 67.5 million shares of common stock of Citius Oncology which, at an implied value of $10.00 per share, would be $675 million in equity of Citius Oncology, before fees and expenses. As part of the transaction, Citius Pharma will contribute $10 million in cash to Citius Oncology. An additional 12.75 million existing options will be assumed by Citius Oncology.

At closing, any cash remaining in TenX’s trust account along with the cash provided by Citius Pharma will be contributed to Citius Oncology to support ongoing operations and planned commercialization efforts. References to available cash from the TenX trust account and retained transaction proceeds are subject to any redemptions by the public stockholders of TenX and payment of transaction fees and expenses.

Upon closing, Citius Oncology will operate under a shared services agreement with Citius Pharma, with fees payable quarterly to Citius Pharma, for the services of several key members of the Citius Pharma team, led by Leonard Mazur, Chief Executive Officer, Jaime Bartushak, Chief Financial Officer and Dr. Myron Czuczman, Chief Medical Officer. Myron Holubiak will serve as Executive Vice Chairman of the Citius Oncology Board of Directors.

The transaction, which has been unanimously approved by both Boards of Directors of Citius Pharma and TenX, is subject to approval by stockholders of TenX and other customary closing conditions. Citius Pharma, as the sole holder of Citius Oncology common stock, has approved the transaction. The proposed business combination is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024.

About Citius Oncology, Inc.

Citius Oncology is a late-stage pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing targeted oncology therapies. Its strategy centers on achieving a market leading position by advancing innovative therapies with reduced development and clinical risks, and leveraging competitive advantages supported by intellectual property and regulatory exclusivity protection. This includes new formulations of previously approved drugs with substantial existing safety and efficacy data or expanded indications for approved therapies.

Citius Oncology’s lead product candidate is LYMPHIR, an engineered IL-2 diphtheria toxin fusion protein, for the treatment of patients with persistent or recurrent CTCL, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Management believes the market for LYMPHIR for CTCL, estimated to exceed $400 million, is attractive, growing and underserved by existing treatments. On July 28, 2023, the FDA issued a complete response letter (CRL) in response to the LYMPHIR BLA. The FDA is requiring enhanced product testing and additional controls agreed to with the FDA during the market application review. There were no concerns relating to the safety and efficacy of the clinical data package submitted with the BLA, or the proposed prescribing information. In September 2023, Citius Pharma announced that the FDA has agreed with the plans to address the requirements outlined in the CRL. This guidance has clarified the path forward in completing the necessary activities to support the resubmission of the BLA for LYMPHIR. The BLA resubmission is anticipated in early 2024.

Citius Oncology was founded in August 2021 as Citius Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Citius Pharma and began operations in April 2022. The corporate name was changed to Citius Oncology, Inc. in May 2023.
