EXPLANATORY NOTE 

 

Kairos Pharma, Ltd. has prepared this Confidential Draft No. 3 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Additional DRS Filing”) for the sole purpose of submitting confidentially to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) exhibits not previously submitted with Confidential Draft No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 submitted to the SEC on June 27, 2023 (the “Original DRS”). This Additional DRS Filing is being made due to a limitation on the number of exhibits or documents that we were able to submit at one time to the Edgar servers with the Original DRS. Save for the aforementioned inclusion of additional exhibits to the Original DRS, nothing herein amends the Original DRS and the Registration Statement that accompanies it and, accordingly, such Registration Statement has not been included herein.
