Special

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report include statements regarding:

● the<br> timing, progress and results of clinical studies for our product candidates, including the development of our only product candidate,<br> Olvi-Vec;
● the<br> timing, scope and likelihood of regulatory filings and approvals, including final regulatory approval of our product candidates;
● the<br> potential benefits and market opportunity for our product candidates and CHOICE platform;
● expectations<br> regarding the size, scope and design of clinical studies;
● our<br> manufacturing, commercialization, and marketing plans and strategies;
● our<br> plans to hire additional personnel and our ability to attract and retain such personnel;
● our<br> estimates of the number of patients who suffer from the diseases we are targeting and potential growth in our target markets;
● our<br> expectations regarding the approval and use of our product candidates;
● our<br> competitive position and the development and impact of competing therapies that are or may become available;
● expectations<br> regarding future events under collaboration and licensing agreements, including potential future payments, as well as our plans and<br> strategies for entering into further collaboration and licensing agreements;
● our<br> intellectual property position, including the scope of protection we are able to establish and maintain for intellectual property<br> rights covering product candidates we may develop, including the extensions of existing patent terms where available, the validity<br> of intellectual property rights held by third parties, and our ability not to infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any third-party<br> intellectual property rights;
● the<br> rate and degree of market acceptance and clinical utility of product candidates we may develop;
● our<br> estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing;
● our<br> future financial performance;
● the<br> period over which we estimate our existing cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments will be sufficient to fund<br> our future operations;
● our<br> expected use of net proceeds from our financing transactions;
● the<br> impact of laws and regulations;
● the<br> impact of geopolitical and macroeconomic factors; and
● other<br> risks and uncertainties, including those described under Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions described under the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”) and in this Quarterly Report. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise. You should, however, review the factors and risks we describe in the reports we will file from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) after the date of this Quarterly Report.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and while we believe such information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, such information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and you are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

Corporation Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(unaudited)

(inthousands, except share amounts and per share data)

NOTE

1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organizationand Operations

Genelux Corporation (“Genelux” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, incorporated on September 4, 2001, is a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company located in Westlake Village, California. The Company is focused on developing a pipeline of next-generation oncolytic viral immunotherapies for patients suffering from aggressive and/or difficult-to-treat solid tumor types.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

The

accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced recurring losses from operations since inception and incurred a net loss of $22.9 million and used cash in operations of $19.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s December 31, 2024 financial statements, has expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its strategies. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

As

of September 30, 2025, the Company had $4.7

million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash ($1.0

million in restricted cash) and $16.2

million in short-term investments. The Company plans to fund its development activities as cash resources allow. The Company does not expect to become profitable until it can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever. Unless and until such time, the Company expects to finance its operations through a combination of public or private equity offerings and debt financing, which may include sales of shares of Company common stock under the Sales Agreement entered into with Guggenheim Securities, LLC in February 2024, or other sources, such as potential collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. Based on its research and development plans, the Company expects that its existing cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments will fund its planned operations into the third quarter of 2026. The Company has based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and the Company could exhaust its available capital resources sooner than it expects. In addition, due to the inherent uncertainties in the design and outcomes of its ongoing and future clinical trials, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the actual costs required to successfully complete the development and commercialization of Olvi-Vec or any other product candidates. The Company’s current cash resources may be insufficient to fund the completion of development for Olvi-Vec or any additional product candidates.

No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in case of equity financing, or require the Company to grant terms that are not favorable to the Company in future licensing agreements.

Basisof Presentation

The interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial information. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual Report.

| --- |

In the opinion of management, all material adjustments of a normal recurring nature have been made to present fairly to the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2025. Operating results and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.

NOTE

2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies disclosed in the Annual Report.

CashEquivalents, and Restricted Cash

The

Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition as cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, cash equivalents were comprised of money market funds that totaled $1.8

million and $7.6

million, respectively.

At

September 30. 2025, there was $1.0 million restricted cash that is held as a refundable security deposit for an equipment lease (see Note 7). At December 31, 2024, there was no restricted cash.

Investments

The Company’s short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and non-credit related losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and included in stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses and declines in value determined to be other than temporary are based on the specific identification method and are included as a component of other income (expense), net in the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. There were no realized gains or losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Bonds with maturity dates subsequent to September 30, 2026, are classified as long-term investments, while bonds with maturity dates on or before September 30, 2026, are classified as short-term investments.

ComprehensiveLoss

Comprehensive

loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ equity that result from transactions and economic events other than those with shareholders. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, comprehensive loss included $56 and $110, of unrealized loss and gain on short-term investments, net of tax, respectively.

RecentAccounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to disclose in the notes to the financial statements, among other things, specific information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation and amortization expense for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments may be applied prospectively to reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing the potential impact on its financial statement disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through additional disclosures about significant segment expenses. This ASU requires public companies with a single reportable segment to provide all disclosures required under ASC 280. In addition, this ASU requires public companies to include in interim reports all disclosures related to a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required in annual reports. While ASU implements further segment disclosure requirements, it does not change how an entity identifies its operating or reportable segments and it will have no impact on the Company’s condensed financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. This ASU is applicable to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025, and subsequent interim periods. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company has elected to adopt the standard in its Annual Report.

In September 2021, the Company entered into a License Agreement (as amended, the “Newsoara License”) with Newsoara BioPharma Co. Ltd. (“Newsoara”) pursuant to which it granted Newsoara an exclusive license to research, develop, commercialize or exploit (i) any and all oncolytic viruses that are controlled by the Company, including Olvi-Vec but excluding V-VET1 (licensed viruses); (ii) any pharmaceutical product in final form that is comprised of or contains the licensed viruses as an active ingredient (licensed products); (iii) any virus developed by or behalf of Newsoara that (a) has a vaccinia virus backbone; (b) is not disclosed or covered by any of the Company’s patents; and (c) includes modifications (as compared to the licensed viruses) of a gene function with therapeutic intent (derived molecules); and (iv) any pharmaceutical product in final form that is comprised of or contains derived molecule as an active ingredient (derived products), in each case in mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau (the “Newsoara Territory”) in the field of human diagnostic, prophylactic and therapeutic uses (the “Newsoara Field”). The license granted to Newsoara is royalty bearing for licensed products and royalty free for derived products. Under the Newsoara License, Newsoara also granted the Company an exclusive and royalty bearing license to develop, commercialize and exploit outside the Newsoara Territory any derived products developed by Newsoara.

Under

the terms of the Newsoara License and to date, we have received from Newsoara an aggregate of $11.0

million ($5.0

million as an upfront payment and $6.0

million as a milestone payment) associated with the Newsoara

License. Newsoara is obligated to pay us additional development and commercial milestone payments up to $160.5

million in the aggregate upon the occurrence of certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones by the licensed products, and royalties on net sales of the licensed products in the mid-single-digit to mid-teens percentage range (the “Newsoara Royalty”). The Newsoara Royalty term, with respect to a licensed product and each region in the Newsoara Territory, is the period beginning on the date of first commercial sale of such licensed product in such region and ending on the last to occur of: (a) the expiration of the last to expire patent controlled by the Company (including any applicable patent term extension) in such region that contains either (i) an issued valid claim that covers the licensed product (including the licensed virus contained therein, and including the composition of matter and method of making and using thereof) or (ii) a pending valid claim that covers the sequence of the licensed virus contained therein; (b) the 10th anniversary of the first commercial sale of such licensed product in such region; and (c) the expiration of all regulatory exclusivity for such licensed product in such region. If the Company, at its discretion, elects to develop and commercialize outside the territory any derived product developed by Newsoara, the Company is required to make certain milestone and royalty payments to Newsoara.

Pursuant to the Newsoara License, Newsoara is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize the licensed products in the Newsoara Territory in the Newsoara Field and is solely responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such activities. In addition, Newsoara is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a multi-center Phase 2 clinical trial for Olvi-Vec in NSCLC using clinical sites in the United States and China, which is the VIRO-25 clinical trial. Newsoara is generally obligated under the Newsoara License to fund the costs of the VIRO-25 clinical trial in the United States and China. In November 2023, the Company and Newsoara agreed that the Company would engage a clinical research organization (“CRO”) to conduct certain start-up activities for the trial in the United States only, with Newsoara to reimburse the Company for the costs and expenses. Pursuant to a letter of understanding (the “LOU”), in September 2025, the Company agreed with Newsoara that the CRO would conduct additional study activities beyond startup for the VIRO-25 clinical trial in the United States and Newsoara would reimburse the Company for costs and expenses related to such additional activities; however, Newsoara is permitted to defer reimbursement of the foregoing costs and expenses until the earlier of: (i) completion of its next round of financing, or (ii) December 31, 2026.

In November 2022, the Company entered into a Clinical Supply Agreement with Newsoara to manufacture and supply Olvi-Vec for Newsoara’s clinical trials in the Newsoara Territory. The Company is responsible for supplying Olvi-Vec at its own costs of manufacturing.

NOTE

4 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company employs a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The Company’s valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value and the definitions of the three levels (Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3) of the fair value hierarchy are disclosed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Part IV, “Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statements Schedules” of its Annual Report.

| 9 |

| --- |

The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruptions, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified from Level 1 to Level 2, or from Level 2 to Level 3. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at either the actual date of the event or a change in circumstances that caused the transfer. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any financial assets based on Level 3 measurements.

The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company.

StockOptions Awards

Option exercise prices are set forth in the grant notice, without commission or other charge, provided however, that the price per share of the shares subject to the option shall not be less than the greater of (i) 100% of the fair market value of a share of stock on the grant date, or (ii) with respect to awards under the 2019 Plan or 2022 Plan, 110% of the fair market value of a share of stock on the grant date in the case of a Participant then owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any “subsidiary corporation” of the Company or any “parent corporation” of the Company. Options to employees, directors and consultants generally vest and become exercisable over a period not exceeding four years. Options typically expire ten years after the date of grant.

The Company’s policy is to recognize compensation cost for awards with only service conditions on a straight- line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Additionally, the Company’s policy is to issue new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option exercises. The Company applied fair value accounting for all share-based payments awards. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

In January 2025, under its Inducement Plan, the Board approved the granting of an option to its Chief Financial Officer to purchase 275,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.95 per share.

EmployeeStock Purchase Plan

The Company’s 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) permits eligible employees to purchase Company shares on an after-tax basis in an amount between 1% and 15% of their earnings: (i) on May 16th of each year at a 15% discount of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on November 17th of the previous year or May 16th of the then-current year, whichever is lower, and (ii) on November 15th of each year at a 15% discount of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on May 17th or November 15th of the then-current year, whichever is lower. The ESPP includes an “evergreen” feature, which provides that an additional number of shares of common stock will automatically be added to the shares authorized for issuance under the ESPP on January 1st of each year, beginning on January 1, 2024 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2032. The number of shares added each calendar year will equal the lesser of 1% of the Company’s common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year or 2,100,000 or a lesser number as determined by the Board. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 25,876 shares of common stock were purchased for an aggregate purchase price of $52 under the ESPP, and as of September 30, 2025, 1,234,128 shares remain authorized and available for issuance.

NOTE

11– NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued.

The basic and diluted shares outstanding were the same, as potentially dilutive shares were considered anti-dilutive. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

Item2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Genelux Corporation (“Genelux,” “Company,” “we,” “us”, or “our”) and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) and the financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, both of which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. See also “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included in this Quarterly Report.

CompanyOverview

Genelux is a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing a pipeline of next-generation oncolytic viral immunotherapies for patients suffering from aggressive and/or difficult-to-treat solid tumor types. Our clinical and preclinical product candidates are intended to selectively kill tumor cells and induce a robust immune response against a patient’s tumor neoantigens. Importantly, our oncolytic immunotherapy product candidates are “off-the-shelf” personalized immunotherapies. In other words, while we administer the same virus product to different patients, the cellular immune response generated is expected to be specific to the unique neoantigens in that patient. Our product candidate, Olvi-Vec (olvimulogene nanivacirepvec), is a proprietary, modified strain of the vaccinia virus (“VACV”), a stable DNA virus with a large engineering capacity.

Employing our proprietary selection technology and discovery and development platform (“CHOICE”), we have developed an extensive library of isolated and engineered oncolytic VACV immunotherapeutic product candidates. These provide potential utility in multiple tumor types in both the monotherapy and combination therapy settings, via physician-preferred administration techniques, including regional (e.g., intraperitoneal), local and systemic (e.g., intravenous) delivery routes. Informed by our CHOICE platform and supported by extensive clinical and preclinical data, we believe we have the capacity to develop a pipeline of treatment options to address high unmet medical needs for those patients with insignificant or unsatisfactory responses to standard-of-care therapies, including chemotherapies.

Our operations have focused on organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, acquiring and developing our technology, establishing our intellectual property portfolio, identifying potential product candidates and undertaking preclinical and clinical studies and manufacturing. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product sales.

Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Our net losses were $22.9 million and $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $274.3 million. We expect to continue to incur significant and increasing expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future, as we advance our current and future product candidates through preclinical and clinical development, manufacture drug product and drug supply, seek regulatory approval for our current and future product candidates, maintain and expand our intellectual property portfolio, hire additional research and development and business personnel and operate as a public company.

We will not generate revenue from commercially approved product sales unless and until we successfully complete clinical development and obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates. In addition, if we obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates and do not enter into a third-party commercialization partnership, we expect to incur significant expenses related to developing our commercialization capability to support product sales, marketing, manufacturing, and distribution activities.

As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of public or private equity offerings and debt financings, which may include sales of shares of Company common stock under the Sales Agreement entered into with Guggenheim Securities, LLC in February 2024 (“ATM Sales”), or other sources, such as potential collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such agreements as, and when, needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we closed our initial public offering (“IPO”) and two PIPE transactions and received $37.8 million of net proceeds from these transactions. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we closed a second public offering and received $27.7 million of net proceeds from that offering. In March 2025, we closed a third public offering and received $9.6 million of net proceeds from that offering. Due to the funds received through these offerings, and the conversion of preferred stock and convertible notes payable upon the closing of the IPO, we had stockholders’ equity of $18.6 million at September 30, 2025. We expect our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, totaling $21.0 million at September 30, 2025, to last into the third quarter of 2026.

RecentDevelopments

US-BasedPhase 2 Trial in NSCLC

In October 2024, we announced that the first patient had been dosed in a Phase 2, open-label, randomized, and controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenously delivered Olvi-Vec oncolytic VACV for patients with recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) in the United States. In accordance with our license agreement (as amended, the “Newsoara License”) with our partner in China, Newsoara BioPharma Co. Ltd. (“Newsoara”), Newsoara is generally obligated to fund the Phase 2 NSCLC trial in its entirety in the United States and China (“VIRO-25 Trial”). In November 2023, we agreed with Newsoara that Genelux would directly engage a contract research organization (“CRO”) on mutually agreeable terms to conduct certain startup activities for the VIRO-25 Trial in the U.S. only, with Newsoara reimbursing us for the costs and expenses of such agreed-upon startup activities. Pursuant to a letter of understanding (the “LOU”), in September 2025, we agreed with Newsoara that the CRO would conduct additional study activities beyond startup for the VIRO-25 Trial in the United States and Newsoara would reimburse us for costs and expenses related to such additional activities; however, Newsoara is permitted to defer reimbursement of the foregoing costs and expenses until the earlier of: (i) completion of its next round of financing or (ii) December 31, 2026.

OfficerTransition

On July 7, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Eric Groen as General Counsel, Corporate Secretary, Chief Compliance Officer and Head of Business Development, effective as of July 1, 2025.

Resultsof Operations

NetSales

No revenue was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized $0.8 million relating to the Company’s license agreement with Elias Animal Health, LLC.

OperatingExpenses

Our operating expenses consist of (i) research and development expenses and (ii) general and administrative expenses.

Researchand Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for our research and development activities, including our product candidate discovery efforts and preclinical and clinical studies under our research programs, which include:

● employee-related<br> expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expense for our research and development personnel;
● costs<br> of funding research performed by third parties that conduct research and development and preclinical and clinical activities on our<br> behalf;
● costs<br> of manufacturing drug product and drug supply related to our current or future product candidates;
● costs<br> of conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials of our product candidates;
--- ---
● consulting<br> and professional fees related to research and development activities, including equity-based compensation to non-employees;
● costs<br> of maintaining our laboratory, including purchasing laboratory supplies and non-capital equipment used in our preclinical studies;
● costs<br> related to compliance with clinical regulatory requirements; and
● facility<br> costs and other allocated expenses, which include expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, insurance, depreciation and other<br> supplies.

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Costs for certain activities are recognized based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as information provided to us by our vendors and analyzing the progress of our preclinical and clinical studies or other services performed. Significant judgment and estimates are made in determining the accrued expense balances at the end of any reporting period.

The successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain. We cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing, and estimated costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete development of our current or future product candidates. We are also unable to predict when, if ever, material net cash inflows will commence from the sale of our product candidates, if they are approved. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing product candidates, including the uncertainty of:

● the<br> scope, rate of progress, and expenses of our ongoing research activities as well as any preclinical studies and clinical trials and<br> other research and development activities;
● establishing<br> an appropriate safety profile;
● successful<br> enrollment in and completion of clinical trials;
● whether<br> our product candidates show safety and efficacy in our clinical trials;
● receipt<br> of marketing approvals from applicable regulatory authorities;
● establishing<br> commercial manufacturing capabilities or making arrangements with third-party manufacturers;
● obtaining<br> and maintaining patent and trade secret protection and regulatory exclusivity for our product candidates;
● commercializing<br> product candidates, if and when approved, whether alone or in collaboration with others;
● continued<br> acceptable safety profile of the products following any regulatory approval;

A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of our current and future product candidates would significantly change the costs and timing associated with the development of those product candidates.

| 21 |

| --- |

Research and development activities are central to our business model. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials. We expect research and development costs to increase significantly in the foreseeable future as we continue the development of our current and future product candidates, commence additional clinical trials, manufacture greater volume of clinical supply and invest further in our manufacturing facilities. However, we do not believe that it is possible at this time to accurately project expenses through commercialization. There are numerous factors associated with the successful commercialization of any of our product candidates, including future trial design and various regulatory requirements, many of which cannot be determined with accuracy at this time based on our stage of development. Additionally, future commercial and regulatory factors beyond our control will impact our clinical development programs and plans.

Generaland Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include salaries and other compensation-related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance, business development, operations and administrative roles. Other significant costs include professional service and consulting fees, including legal fees relating to intellectual property and corporate matters, accounting fees, recruiting costs and costs for consultants who we utilize to supplement our personnel, insurance costs, travel costs, facility and office-related costs not included in research and development expenses.

We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as our business expands to support expected growth in research and development activities, including our future clinical programs. These increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees to outside service providers, among other expenses. We also anticipate increased expenses associated with being a public company, including costs for audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services related to compliance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and listing standards applicable to companies listed on a national securities exchange, director and officer insurance premiums, and investor relations costs. In addition, if we obtain regulatory approval for any of our product candidates and do not enter into a third-party commercialization collaboration, we expect to incur significant expenses related to building a sales and marketing team to support product sales, marketing and distribution activities.

Generaland Administrative Expenses

The table below summarizes our general and administrative expenses for the following periods indicated (in thousands):

NineMonths EndedSeptember 30, 2025 NineMonths EndedSeptember 30, 2024 Change
Employee compensation and related expenses $ 2,531 $ 1,791 $ 740

Total general and administrative expenses $ 9,605 $ 9,478 $ 127

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 over the same period in 2024 primarily as a result of a $0.7 million increase in employee compensation partially offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in consulting fees and $0.1 million in stock compensation.

OtherIncome

Other income was $0.9 million and $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, other income consisted of interest income of $0.6 million and bond accretion income of $0.3 million from the investment into money market funds and investments, while during the same period in 2024, other income consisted of interest income of $0.5 million and bond accretion income of $0.6 million.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses from operations since inception and incurred a net loss of $22.9 million and used cash in operations of $19.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph in their report with respect to the uncertainty that accompanies our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its development strategies. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

As of September 30, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments of $21.0 million. Apart from payment and reimbursement obligations of Newsoara under the Newsoara License, we do not have any committed external source of funds or other support for our developmental efforts. Until we can generate sufficient product revenue to finance our cash requirements, which we may never do, we expect to finance our future cash needs through a combination of public or private equity offerings and debt financings, which may include ATM Sales, or other capital sources such as milestone payments, royalties or other payments or funding from existing or potential collaborations, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements and other arrangements. Based on our research and development plans, we expect that our existing cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments will fund our planned operations into the third quarter of 2026. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. In addition, because the design and outcome of our anticipated and any future clinical trials is highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development and commercialization of Olvi-Vec or any future product candidates. Our existing cash balance may not be sufficient to complete the development of Olvi-Vec or any other product candidate.

| 25 |

| --- |

No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing, or grant unfavorable terms in future licensing agreements.

CashFlows

The following table sets forth the primary sources and uses of cash for each of the periods presented below:

Nine Months Ended<br><br> <br>September 30,
2025 2024
(in thousands)
Cash Flow from:
Operating activities $ (19,069 ) $ (16,926 )
Investing activities 5,577 (14,805 )
Financing activities 9,619 28,415
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalent and restricted cash $ (3,873 ) $ (3,316 )

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, cash flow used in operating activities was $19.1 million, which consisted of a net loss of $22.9 million, non-cash expense of stock-related compensation of $3.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in accrued expense of $1.6 million. Cash provided by investing activities amounted to $5.6 million, which was primarily attributable to net maturities of investments of $6.2 million. Cash provided by financing activities of $9.6 million was related to cash received from sale of common stock. See “Stockholders’ Equity” in Note 9 to our unaudited interim condensed financial statements in Part I. Item 1 “Financial Statements” in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, cash flow used in operating activities was $16.9 million, which consisted of a net loss of $20.9 million, non-cash expense of stock-related compensation of $4.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1.4 million. Cash used in investing activities amounted to $14.8 million, which was primarily attributable to the net purchase of investments of $14.5 million. Cash provided by financing activities was $28.4 million, which was primarily related to cash received in connection with the closing of a secondary offering from sale of common stock of $27.7 million.

EquityFinancings

CommonStock Issued for Cash Upon Closing of the Company’s Third Public Offering

In March 2025, we completed an underwritten offering of 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $3.50 per share. The net proceeds received from the offering were $9.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.

We also agreed to issue the underwriter a warrant to purchase 120,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $4.20 per share and which may be exercised until March 25, 2030, subject to certain terms and conditions.

FundingRequirements

We expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue our research and development, initiate and conduct preclinical studies and clinical trials, and seek marketing approval for our current and any of our future product candidates. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any of our current or our future product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution, which costs we may seek to offset through entry into collaboration agreements with third parties. Furthermore, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on acceptable terms, we would be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our research and development programs or future commercialization efforts.

| 26 |

| --- |

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments will fund our planned operations into the third quarter of 2026. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we may use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including:

● the<br> costs of conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials;
● the<br> costs of manufacturing;
● the<br> scope, progress, results and costs of discovery, preclinical development, laboratory testing, and clinical trials for product candidates<br> we may develop, if any;
● the<br> costs, timing, and outcome of regulatory review of our product candidates;
● our<br> ability to establish and maintain collaborations on favorable terms, if at all;
● the<br> achievement of milestones or occurrence of other developments that trigger payments under any license or collaboration agreements<br> we might have at such time;
● the<br> costs and timing of future commercialization activities, including product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution, for<br> any of our product candidates for which we receive marketing approval;
● the<br> amount of revenue, if any, received from commercial sales of our product candidates, should any of our product candidates receive<br> marketing approval;
● the<br> costs of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications, obtaining, maintaining and enforcing our intellectual property rights,<br> and defending intellectual property-related claims;
● our<br> headcount growth and associated costs as we expand our business operations and research and development activities;
● the<br> costs of operating as a public company; and
● the<br> impact of geopolitical and macroeconomic events, including tariffs or other trade measures future bank failures, increased geopolitical<br> tensions between the United States and China, the Russia/Ukraine conflict, conflicts in the Middle East and global pandemics on U.S.<br> and global economic conditions including changes in monetary and fiscal policy, United States political developments and other sources<br> of instability that may affect our ability to access capital on acceptable terms, if at all.

We anticipate needing to obtain further funding to achieve our business objectives beyond such date.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenues, we expect to finance our cash needs through public or private equity offerings and debt financings, which may include ATM Sales, or other sources, such as potential collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, our common stockholders’ ownership interests may be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that could adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. Additional debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that limit our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends, that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business.

If we raise funds through potential collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates, or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

CriticalAccounting Policies

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheets and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. In accordance with GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances at the time such estimates are made. Actual results may differ materially from our estimates and judgments under different assumptions or conditions. We periodically review our estimates in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in our financial statements prospectively from the date of the change in estimate.

We define our critical accounting policies as those accounting principles that require us to make subjective estimates and judgments about matters that are uncertain and are likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the specific manner in which we apply those principles. Our critical accounting policies are described in Part II. Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates” in our Annual Report. There were no material changes to these accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

RecentAccounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of our material changes in recent accounting pronouncements, see “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in Note 2 to our unaudited interim condensed financial statements in Part I. Item 1 “Financial Statements” in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

EmergingGrowth Company Status

As an “emerging growth company,” the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 permits us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected to “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards when they are required to be adopted by public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

Item3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes in the Company’s exposure to market risk from that described in “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluationof Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), refers to controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to a company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2025.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changesin Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART

II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings. We are not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects because of legal and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Item1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those described in our Annual Report, other than the updates to the risk factors or new risk factors set forth below. New risk factors that were not included in our Annual Report have been marked with an asterisk (*).

Wehave incurred significant losses since our inception and anticipate that we will incur significant and increasing losses for the foreseeablefuture and we may never achieve or maintain profitability.

We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company, and our operations to date have been focused substantially on organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, creating, assessing, and developing our technology, establishing our intellectual property portfolio, identifying potential product candidates, undertaking preclinical studies, commencing clinical trials and manufacturing. Additionally, as an organization, we have not yet demonstrated an ability to successfully complete clinical development, obtain regulatory approvals, manufacture a commercial-scale product, or conduct sales and marketing activities necessary for successful commercialization. We have never generated any revenue from commercially approved product sales and have incurred significant operating losses. Our net losses were $22.9 million and $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $274.3 million. We expect to continue to incur significant and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future. Our prior losses, combined with expected future losses, have had and will continue to have an adverse effect on our stockholders’ deficit and working capital.

We expect that it will be several years, if ever, before we have a commercialized product. The net losses we incur may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially if, and as, we:

● advance<br> the Phase 3 registration clinical trial for our lead product candidate, Olvi-Vec, in platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer<br> (“PRROC”);
● initiate<br> planned and future clinical trials of Olvi-Vec in other cancer indications;
● discover<br> and develop new product candidates, and conduct research and development activities, preclinical studies and clinical trials;
● manufacture<br> preclinical, clinical and commercial supplies of our product candidates;
● broaden<br> and strengthen our internal manufacturing capabilities, including the expansion and upgrade of our in-house manufacturing facility;
● seek<br> regulatory approvals for any product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials;
● maintain,<br> expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio;
● hire<br> additional research and development, clinical, scientific and management personnel;
● add<br> operational, financial and management information systems and personnel;
● establish<br> a sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any product candidate for which we may obtain regulatory approval<br> and we commercialize on our own or in collaboration with others; and
● incur<br> additional legal, accounting and other expenses operating as a public company. 
| 30 |

| --- |

To become and remain profitable, we must succeed in developing and eventually commercializing products that generate significant revenue. This will require us to be successful in a range of challenging activities, including completing preclinical studies and clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approval for product candidates and manufacturing, marketing and selling products for which we may obtain marketing approval and satisfying any post-marketing requirements. We are only in the development stages of most of these activities. We may never succeed in these activities and, even if we do, may never generate revenue that is significant enough to achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to become and remain profitable would depress the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, maintain our research and development efforts or even continue our operations. A decline in the value of our company could also cause stockholders to lose all or part of their investment.

Wewill require substantial additional financing to advance the development of Olvi-Vec and any of our future product candidates, whichmay not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain this necessary capital could force us to delay, limit, reduceor terminate our product development programs, potential commercialization efforts or other operations.

The development of biopharmaceutical product candidates is capital-intensive. Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since inception. We expect to continue to spend substantial amounts to continue the preclinical and clinical development of, and seek regulatory approval for, our current and future product candidates. If we are able to gain marketing approval of any product candidate that we develop, including Olvi-Vec, we will require significant additional amounts of cash in order to launch and commercialize such product either alone or in collaboration with others. Because the design and outcome of our ongoing, anticipated and any future clinical trials is highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development and commercialization of any product candidate we develop.

Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including:

● the<br> scope, progress, results and costs of researching and developing Olvi-Vec and our other product candidates and programs, and of conducting<br> preclinical studies and clinical trials;
● the<br> timing of, and the costs involved in, obtaining marketing approvals for Olvi-Vec and future product candidates we develop if clinical<br> trials are successful;
● the<br> success of any future collaborations;
● the<br> cost of commercialization activities for any approved product, including marketing, sales and distribution costs;
● the<br> cost and timing of establishing, equipping, and operating our current and planned manufacturing activities;
● the<br> cost of manufacturing Olvi-Vec and future product candidates for clinical trials in preparation for marketing approval and commercialization;
● our<br> ability to establish and maintain strategic licensing or other arrangements and the financial terms of such agreements;
● the<br> cost, timing and outcome of seeking U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and any other regulatory approvals for<br> any future product candidates;
● the<br> costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, expanding, defending and enforcing patent claims, including litigation<br> costs and the outcome of such litigation;
● our<br> ability to establish and maintain healthcare coverage and adequate reimbursement for our future products, if any;
● the<br> timing, receipt, and amount of sales of, or royalties on, our future products, if any;
● the<br> emergence of competing cancer therapies and other adverse market developments;
● our<br> efforts to enhance operational systems and our ability to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel, including personnel to support<br> the development of our product candidates;
● the<br> costs associated with being a public company;
● our<br> need and ability to retain key management and hire scientific, technical, medical and business personnel;
● the<br> costs associated with expanding our facilities or building out our laboratory space; and 
| 31 |

| --- | | ● | the<br> impact of geopolitical and macroeconomic events, including future bank failures, tariffs and other trade measures, increased geopolitical<br> tensions between the United States and China, the Russia/Ukraine conflict, the conflicts in the Middle East and global pandemics<br> on U.S. and global economic conditions including changes in monetary and fiscal policy, U.S. political developments and other sources<br> of instability. | | --- | --- |

Besides the obligations by Newsoara to provide clinical trial funding under the Newsoara License, we do not have any committed external source of funds or other support for our development efforts. Until we can generate sufficient product revenue to finance our cash requirements, which we may never do, we expect to finance our future cash needs through a combination of public or private equity offerings and debt financings, or other capital sources such as milestone payments, royalties or other payments or funding from existing or potential collaborations, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements and other arrangements. Based on our research and development plans, we expect that our existing cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments will fund our planned operations into the third quarter of 2026. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. In addition, because the design and outcome of our anticipated and any future clinical trials is highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development and commercialization of Olvi-Vec or any future product candidates. Our existing cash balance may not be sufficient to complete development of Olvi-Vec or any other product candidate. The failure to receive all or some of the committed proceeds would exhaust our available capital resources sooner than expected and will require us to obtain further funding to achieve our business objectives.

Ourproduct candidates are in preclinical and clinical stages of development, are not approved for commercial sale and might never receiveregulatory approval or become commercially viable.

All of our product candidates are in research, preclinical or clinical development. We have not completed the development of any product candidates, we currently generate no revenue, and we may never be able to develop a marketable product. Enrollment of our Phase 2 clinical trial, an open-label, single-arm study, of our lead product candidate, Olvi-Vec, in patients with PRROC, was completed in September 2019, and we reported multiple data readouts in 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 for our Phase 2 PRROC clinical trial. We expect the final readout, reported on May 25, 2023 and published in JAMA Oncology in May 2023, to remain essentially unchanged in the final study report. Our Phase 3 registration trial of Olvi-Vec in PRROC initiated enrollment in the third quarter of 2022. We continue to enroll patients in this Phase 3 trial with topline results anticipated in the second half of 2026.

Newsoara is generally obligated under the Newsoara License to fund our ongoing Phase 2, open-label, randomized, and controlled NSCLC clinical trial in its entirety in the United States and China, known as the VIRO-25 Trial. In November 2023, we agreed with Newsoara that we would directly engage a CRO on mutually agreeable terms to conduct certain startup activities for the VIRO-25 Trial in the United States only, with Newsoara reimbursing us for the costs and expenses of such agreed-upon startup activities. In September 2025 and pursuant to the LOU, we agreed with Newsoara that the CRO would conduct study activities beyond startup for the VIRO-25 Trial in the United States and Newsoara would reimburse us for costs and expenses related to such additional activities. Under the agreed upon terms, Newsoara is permitted to defer reimbursement of the foregoing costs and expenses until the earlier of: (i) completion of its next round of financing, or (ii) December 31, 2026. Subject to regulatory authorization in China, the Company expects Newsoara to eventually to add sites in China and for the parties to conduct this study as a multi-regional clinical trial.

We and Newsoara co-sponsor a Phase 1/2 clinical trial of Olvi-Vec in patients with recurrent SCLC in China, which Newsoara is conducting, and initiated the Phase 1 portion in the first half of 2023. A readout of interim results in the Phase 1b portion of this trial was disclosed in the first quarter of 2025. We expect to report additional interim results from this trial in the fourth quarter of 2025. Data are supportive of Olvi-Vec being a platinum resensitizing agent beyond ovarian cancer and underscore the current clinical development strategy. In addition to expecting Newsoara to join our ongoing Phase 2 NSCLC trial, as discussed above, we anticipate they will initiate a trial in recurrent ovarian cancer in China.

Additionally, we have a portfolio of oncolytic VACV constructs that are in early-to-late stages of discovery and preclinical development that may never advance to clinical-stage development or marketing approval. Our ability to generate product revenues, which we do not expect will occur for several years, if ever, will depend on obtaining marketing approvals for, and successfully commercializing our product candidates, either alone or in collaboration with others, and we cannot guarantee that we will ever obtain marketing approval for any of our product candidates. Before obtaining marketing approval for the commercial distribution of our product candidates, we, or a future collaborator, must conduct extensive preclinical studies and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy in humans of our product candidates.

The success of our current and future product candidates will depend on several factors, including the following:

● successful<br> completion of preclinical studies and clinical trials;
● sufficiency<br> of our financial and other resources to complete the necessary preclinical studies and clinical trials;
● acceptance<br> of investigational new drug (“IND”) applications or IND amendments for our planned clinical trials or future clinical<br> trials;
● successful<br> enrollment and completion of clinical trials;
● successful<br> data from our clinical trials that support FDA conclusion of an acceptable risk-benefit profile of our product candidates in the<br> intended populations;
● receipt<br> of regulatory and marketing approvals from applicable regulatory authorities;
● obtaining<br> and maintaining patent and trade secret protection or regulatory exclusivity for our product candidates;
● obtaining<br> regulatory approval to use our existing or future manufacturing processes for the clinical and commercial manufacture of our product<br> candidates at our existing or future manufacturing facilities or at the facilities of one or more third-party manufacturers with<br> whom we would need to establish supply arrangements;
● successfully<br> launching commercial sales of our product candidates, if and when approved, whether alone or in collaboration with others;
● acceptance<br> of any products we develop and their benefits and uses, if and when approved, by patients, the medical community and third-party<br> payors;
● effectively<br> competing with other therapies;
● obtaining<br> and maintaining healthcare coverage and adequate reimbursement from third-party payors; and
● maintaining<br> a continued acceptable safety profile of the products following approval.

If we do not achieve one or more of these factors in a timely manner or at all, we could experience significant delays or an inability to successfully commercialize our product candidates, which would materially harm our business.

Resultsof preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of results of future clinical trials.

For our lead product candidate, Olvi-Vec, we completed enrollment, and we reported multiple data readouts in 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 for our Phase 2 PRROC clinical trial. Our Phase 3 registration trial of Olvi-Vec in PRROC initiated enrollment in the third quarter of 2022. In March 2025, we announced that we had concluded a productive Type D meeting with the FDA for Olvi-Vec in the treatment of PRROC. In response to a question seeking the FDA’s guidance on our expectations regarding a confirmatory trial based on the Phase 3 OnPrime/GOG-3076 registration trial (Phase 3 trial) results, the FDA responded that “As stated previously, an interim analysis of overall survival (“OS”) should be planned at the time of the primary progression-free survival (“PFS”) analysis. If a clinically meaningful PFS advantage is demonstrated in the absence of a decrement in OS, this could potentially support traditional approval.” The FDA further recommended we request a pre-BLA meeting with FDA with topline safety and efficacy data following completion of the trial so that the FDA may discuss next steps. Clinical development is expensive and can take many years to complete and its outcome is inherently uncertain. Olvi-Vec may not perform as we expect in clinical trials, particularly in our open-label, randomized, and controlled Phase 3 registration clinical trial, in which Olvi-Vec may ultimately have a different or no impact on tumors, may have a different mechanism of action than we expect and may not ultimately prove to be safe and effective. The FDA’s analysis and interpretation of the data may also differ from ours.

The results of previous clinical trials of Olvi-Vec and results of preclinical studies or early clinical trials of any other product candidate we develop, may not be predictive of the results of subsequent and later-stage clinical trials. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have suffered significant setbacks in registration-stage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we could face similar setbacks. The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product and flaws in the design of a clinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced. We do not have experience in successfully completing a registration-stage clinical trial and may be unable to execute a clinical trial to support marketing approval. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are often susceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily in preclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we, or future collaborators, believe that the results of clinical trials for our product candidates warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may disagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidates.

In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same product candidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patient populations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols, variations in conducting clinical trials at different sites, changes in medical practice, FDA requirements based on agency guidelines or precedence which may be more strict for a Phase 3 clinical trial, the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants and changes in the manufacturing process. Moreover, should there be an issue with the design of any of our clinical trials, our results may be impacted. We may not discover such a flaw until the clinical trial is at an advanced stage.

Seriousadverse events, undesirable side effects (including emergent drug-drug interactions between Olvi-Vec and any of the other therapeuticagents given to the clinical trial subjects) or other unexpected properties of our current or future product candidates may be identifiedduring development or after approval, which could halt their development or lead to the discontinuation of our clinical development programs,refusal by regulatory authorities to approve our product candidates or, if discovered following marketing approval, revocation of marketingauthorizations or limitations on the use of our product candidates thereby limiting the commercial potential of such product candidate.

To date, Olvi-Vec is the only product candidate we have tested in humans. The most advanced trial with enrollment completed was our open-label, single-arm Phase 1b/2 clinical trial in PRROC. Enrollment was completed in September 2019, and we reported multiple data readouts in 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 for our Phase 2 PRROC clinical trial. We expect the final readout, reported on May 25, 2023 and published in JAMA Oncology in May 2023, to remain essentially unchanged in the final study report. Additionally, we previously conducted five Phase 1 clinical trials and one Expanded Access Program in different indications, using different routes of administration and different dosing regimens. The most common treatment-related toxicities generally observed in our trials from different routes of administration were pyrexia, nausea, vomiting, chills and fatigue with additional common treatment-related toxicities observed in our intraperitoneal administration trials being abdominal pain and abdominal distension. As we continue our development of Olvi-Vec and initiate clinical trials of any future product candidates, serious adverse events, undesirable side effects or unexpected characteristics may emerge or be reported, causing us to abandon these product candidates or limit their development to more narrow uses or subpopulations in which the serious adverse events, undesirable side effects or other characteristics are less prevalent, less severe or more acceptable from a risk-benefit perspective. Even if our product candidates initially show promise in early clinical trials, the side effects of therapies are frequently only detectable after the drug is tested in large, Phase 3 clinical trials or, in some cases, after they are made available to patients on a commercial scale after approval. Sometimes, it can be difficult to determine if the serious adverse or unexpected side effects were caused by the product candidate or another factor, especially in oncology subjects who may suffer from other medical conditions and be taking other medications. If serious adverse or unexpected side effects are identified during development and are determined to be attributed to our product candidates, or the result of drug-drug interactions between our product candidate and any of the concomitant therapies given to the trial subjects, we, the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities, or institutional review boards and other reviewing entities, could interrupt, delay, or halt clinical trials and could result in a more restrictive label, a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy or the delay or denial of regulatory approval by the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities. The FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may also require, or we may voluntarily develop strategies for managing adverse events during clinical development, which could include restrictions on our enrollment criteria, the use of stopping criteria, adjustments to a study’s design, or the monitoring of safety data by a data monitoring committee, among other strategies. Any requests from the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authority for additional data or information could also result in substantial delays in the approval of our product candidates.

Drug-related side effects could also affect subject recruitment or the ability of enrolled subjects to complete the trial or result in potential product liability claims. Any of these occurrences may harm our business, financial condition and prospects significantly.

In addition, if one or more of our product candidates receives marketing approval, and we or others later identify undesirable side effects caused by such products, a number of potentially significant negative consequences could result, including:

● regulatory<br> authorities may withdraw approvals of such product;
● regulatory<br> authorities may require additional warnings on the label;
● we<br> may be required to create a medication guide outlining the risks of such side effects for distribution to patients;
● we<br> may be forced to suspend marketing of that product, or decide to remove the product from the marketplace;
● we<br> may be required to change the way the product is administered;
● we<br> could be subject to fines, injunctions, or the imposition of criminal or civil penalties;
● we<br> could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients; and
● the<br> product may become less competitive, and our reputation may suffer. 
| 35 |

| --- |

The therapeutic-related side effects could affect patient recruitment or the ability of enrolled patients to complete the trial or result in potential product liability claims. Any of these events could prevent us from achieving or maintaining market acceptance of the particular product candidate, if approved, and could significantly harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, stock price and prospects.

Ourcurrent and any future collaborations are not a guarantee of success, and all collaborations are as risky, or more risky, than undertakingthe activities ourselves.

Our current collaborations with TVAX Biomedical, Inc. and Newsoara, and potential future collaborations we might enter into for Olvi-Vec or our other product candidates, may pose a number of risks, including the following:

● collaborators<br> may not perform their obligations as expected;
● collaborators<br> may not pursue development and commercialization of product candidates that achieve regulatory approval or may elect not to continue<br> or renew development or commercialization programs based on clinical trial results, changes in the collaborators’ strategic<br> focus or available funding, or external factors, such as an acquisition, that divert resources or create competing priorities;
● collaborators<br> may delay clinical trials, provide insufficient funding for a clinical trial program, stop a clinical trial or abandon a product<br> candidate, repeat or conduct new clinical trials or require a new formulation of a product candidate for clinical testing;
● collaborators<br> could fail to make timely regulatory submissions for a product candidate;
● collaborators<br> may not comply with all applicable regulatory requirements or may fail to report safety data in accordance with all applicable regulatory<br> requirements, which could subject them or us to regulatory enforcement actions;
● collaborators<br> could independently develop, or develop with third parties, products that compete directly or indirectly with our products or product<br> candidates if the collaborators believe that competitive products are more likely to be successfully developed or can be commercialized<br> under terms that are more economically attractive than ours;
● product<br> candidates discovered in collaboration with us may be viewed by our collaborators as competitive with their own product candidates<br> or products, which may cause collaborators to cease to devote resources to the commercialization of our product candidates;
● a<br> collaborator with marketing and distribution rights to one or more of our product candidates that achieve regulatory approval may<br> not commit sufficient resources to the marketing and distribution of such product candidate or product;
● disagreements<br> with collaborators, including disagreements over proprietary rights, contract interpretation or the preferred course of development,<br> might cause delays or termination of the research, development or commercialization of product candidates, might lead to additional<br> responsibilities for us with respect to product candidates, or might result in litigation or arbitration, any of which would be time<br> consuming and expensive;
● collaborators<br> may not properly maintain or defend our intellectual property rights or may use our proprietary information in such a way as to invite<br> litigation that could jeopardize or invalidate our intellectual property or proprietary information or expose us to potential litigation;<br> and
● collaborators<br> may infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties, which may expose us to litigation and potential liability.

For example, Newsoara is generally obligated under the Newsoara License to fund a Phase 2, open-label, randomized, and controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenously delivered Olvi-Vec oncolytic VACV for patients with recurrent NSCLC in the United States, which VIRO-25 trial is now ongoing with the first patient dosed in October 2024. Newsoara has also agreed to reimburse us for the costs and expenses of a CRO to conduct activities for the NSCLC trial in the United States, but is permitted to defer such reimbursement payments until the earlier of: (i) completion of its next round of financing, or (ii) December 31, 2026. If Newsoara is unable or unwilling to provide funding and/or reimbursement of costs for the NSCLC trial in a timely manner or at all, we would need to obtain the funding on our own and/or scale back or discontinue these clinical development activities.

In addition, all of the risks relating to product development, regulatory approval and commercialization described in the Annual Report and in this Quarterly Report also apply to the activities of any of our current or future collaborators.

Collaborations with biopharmaceutical companies and other third parties often are terminated or allowed to expire by the other party. Any such termination or expiration could adversely affect us financially and could harm our business reputation.

If any collaborations we have entered into or might enter into do not result in the successful development and commercialization of products or if one of our collaborators subsequently terminates its agreement with us, we may not receive any future research funding or milestone or royalty payments under such collaboration. If we do not receive the funding we expect under the agreements, our development of our product candidates could be delayed and we may need additional resources to develop our product candidates and our product platform.

Additionally, if any collaborator of ours is involved in a business combination, the collaborator might deemphasize or terminate development or commercialization of any product candidate licensed to it by us. If one of our collaborators terminates its agreement with us, we may find it more difficult to attract new collaborators and our reputation in the business and financial communities could be adversely affected.

We face significant competition in seeking appropriate collaborators. Our ability to reach a definitive agreement for any collaboration will depend, among other things, upon our assessment of the collaborator’s resources and expertise, the terms and conditions of the proposed collaboration and the proposed collaborator’s evaluation of a number of factors.

If we are unable to reach agreements with suitable collaborators on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all, we may have to curtail the development of a product candidate, reduce or delay its development program or one or more of our other development programs, delay its potential commercialization or reduce the scope of any sales or marketing activities, or increase our expenditures and undertake development or commercialization activities at our own expense. If we elect to fund and undertake development or commercialization activities on our own, we may need to obtain additional expertise and additional capital, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to enter into collaborations and do not have sufficient funds or expertise to undertake the necessary development and commercialization activities, we may not be able to further develop our product candidates or bring them to market or continue to develop our product platform and our business may be materially and adversely affected.

Disruptionsto the operations of the FDA, the SEC, other U.S. governmental agencies or comparable foreign regulatory authorities caused by fundingshortages, leadership changes, staffing cuts or other staffing shortages, along with uncertainty regarding the potential for new initiatives,laws, regulations, policies and guidance affecting our product candidates or other aspects of our business, could materially and adverselyaffect our business.*

The ability of the FDA or other comparable foreign regulatory authorities to review and approve new products or take action with respect to other regulatory matters can be affected by a variety of factors, including government budget and funding levels, leadership changes, the ability to hire and retain key personnel and accept payment of user fees, the availability of personnel and other resources, changes in statutes, regulations and policies that affect the FDA’s or comparable foreign regulatory authorities’ ability to perform routine functions, and other business disruptions. Average review times at the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities have fluctuated in recent years as a result. In addition, government funding of the SEC and other government agencies on which our operations may rely, including those that fund research and development activities, is subject to the political process, which is inherently fluid and unpredictable.

Over the last several years, the U.S. government has shut down several times, including most recently on October 1, 2025, and certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA and the SEC, have had to furlough critical FDA, SEC and other government employees and stop critical activities. In addition, there have recently been terminations of large numbers of federal employees at various federal agencies, including the FDA. Changes and cuts in FDA staffing could result in delays in the FDA’s responsiveness or in its ability to review IND submissions or applications, issue regulations or guidance, or implement or enforce regulatory requirements in a timely fashion, or at all. A prolonged government shutdown and/or employee terminations or resignations could significantly impact the ability of the FDA or other federal agencies to timely review and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Further, current and future government shutdowns and/or employee terminations or resignations at the SEC could impact our ability to access the public markets and obtain necessary capital in order to properly capitalize and continue our operations.

There is substantial uncertainty as to whether and how the current administration will seek to modify or revise the requirements and policies of the FDA and other regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over our product candidates and any products for which we obtain approval. This uncertainty could present new challenges as we navigate development and approval of our product candidates. Some of these efforts have manifested to date in the form of personnel cuts and measures that could impact the FDA’s ability to hire and retain key personnel, which could result in delays or limitations on our ability to obtain guidance from the FDA on our product candidates in development and obtain the requisite regulatory approvals in the future. There is uncertainty as to whether we will be materially and negatively impacted by governmental orders, regulations, policies or guidance, or disruptions to the normal operations of government agencies.

Internationaltrade policies, including tariffs, sanctions and trade barriers may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operationsand prospects.*

We operate in a global economy, which includes utilizing third-party suppliers in several countries outside the United States. There is inherent risk, based on the complex relationships among the U.S. and the countries in which we conduct our business, that political, diplomatic, and national security factors can lead to global trade restrictions and changes in trade policies and export regulations that may adversely affect our business and operations. The current international trade and regulatory environment is subject to significant ongoing uncertainty. The U.S. government has recently announced substantial new tariffs affecting a wide range of products and jurisdictions and has indicated an intention to continue developing new trade policies, including with respect to the pharmaceutical industry. In response, certain foreign governments have announced or implemented retaliatory tariffs and other protectionist measures. Further, the Bureau of Industry and Security, U.S. Department of Commerce, has initiated an investigation to determine whether pharmaceutical ingredients, including finished drug product, manufactured outside the United States pose a national security risk and should be subject to additional tariffs. These developments have created a dynamic and unpredictable trade landscape, which may adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

We rely on specialized laboratory equipment, supplies, and materials, all or part of which we believe may be ultimately sourced from multiple countries outside the United States, to advance our research and development efforts.

Current or future tariffs will result in increased research and development expenses, including with respect to increased costs associated with specialized laboratory equipment used in the manufacture of Olvi-Vec. In addition, such tariffs will increase our supply chain complexity and could also potentially disrupt our existing supply chain. Unlike consumer goods, pharmaceuticals face unique regulatory constraints that make rapid supply chain adjustments particularly difficult and costly. Trade restrictions affecting the import of materials necessary for clinical trials could result in delays to our development timelines. Increased development costs and extended development timelines could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to companies operating in regions with more favorable trade relationships and could reduce investor confidence, negatively impacting our ability to secure additional financing on favorable terms or at all. In addition, as we advance toward commercialization in the future, tariffs and trade restrictions could hinder our ability to establish cost-effective production capabilities, negatively impacting our growth prospects.

The complexity of announced or future tariffs may also increase the risk that we or our suppliers may be subject to civil or criminal enforcement actions in the United States or foreign jurisdictions related to compliance with trade regulations. Foreign governments may also adopt non-tariff measures, such as procurement preferences or informal disincentives to engage with, purchase from or invest in U.S. entities, which may limit our ability to compete internationally and attract non-U.S. investment, employees, customers and suppliers. Foreign governments may also take other retaliatory actions against U.S. entities, such as decreased intellectual property protection, increased enforcement actions, or delays in regulatory approvals, which may result in heightened international legal and operational risks. In addition, the United States and other governments have imposed and may continue to impose additional sanctions, such as trade restrictions or trade barriers, which could restrict us from doing business directly or indirectly in or with certain countries or parties and may impose additional costs and complexity to our business.

| 38 |

| --- |

Trade disputes, tariffs, restrictions and other political tensions between the United States and other countries may also exacerbate unfavorable macroeconomic conditions including inflationary pressures, foreign exchange volatility, financial market instability, and economic recessions or downturns. The ultimate impact of current or future tariffs and trade restrictions remains uncertain and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and prospects. While we actively monitor these risks, any prolonged economic downturn, escalation in trade tensions, or deterioration in international perception of U.S.-based companies could materially and adversely affect our business, ability to access the capital markets or other financing sources, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. In addition, trade developments have and may continue to heighten the risks related to the other risk factors described in the Annual Report and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

You represent to the Company that you have full authority to accept this position and perform the duties of the position and that you are not subject to or a party to any employment agreement, non-competition covenant, or other agreement that would be breached by, or prohibit you from, executing this Agreement and performing fully your duties and responsibilities hereunder beginning on the Start Date.

| 3. |

| --- |

(a) Severance. The Company shall pay you, as severance, the equivalent of six (6) months (the “Severance Period”) of your Base Salary in effect as of the Separation Date, and in the event of termination initiated by the Company without Cause your full target annual bonus for the calendar year in which the Separation Date occurs, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings (the **“Severance”).**The Severance will be paid in equal installments as salary continuation beginning on the first regularly-scheduled payroll date following your Separation from Service (as defined in Section 7.7), provided the Separation Agreement (as discussed in Section 6.6) has become effective.

(b)Payment of Continued Group Health Plan Benefits. If you are eligible for and timely elect continued group health plan coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 or any state law of similar effect (“COBRA”) following your Separation Date, the Company will pay your COBRA group health insurance premiums for you and your eligible dependents directly to the insurer until the earliest of (A) the end of the period immediately following your Separation Date that is equal to twelve (12) months (the “COBRA Payment Period”), (B) the expiration of your eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA, or (C) the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. For purposes of this Section, references to COBRA premiums shall not include any amounts payable by you under a Section 125 health care reimbursement plan under the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA premiums without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then regardless of whether you elect continued health coverage under COBRA, and in lieu of providing the COBRA premiums, the Company will instead pay you on the last day of each remaining month of the COBRA Payment Period, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premiums for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings (such amount, the “Special Severance Payment”), which payments shall continue until the earlier of expiration of the COBRA Payment Period or the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. On the first payroll date following the effectiveness of the Separation Agreement (as discussed in Section 6.6), the Company will malce the first payment to the insurer under this clause (and, in the case of the Special Severance Payment, such payment will be to you, in a lump sum) equal to the aggregate amount of payments that the Company would have paid through such date had such payments instead commenced on the Separation Date, with the balance of the payments paid thereafter on the schedule described above. If you become eligible for coverage under another employer’s group health plan, you must immediately notify the Company of such event, and all payments and obligations under this subsection shall cease.

6.4 InvoluntaryTermination During Change in Control Period. If you are subject to an Involuntary Termination during the Change in Control Period, and provided that you remain in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including the conditions described in Section 6.6 below), the Company shall provide you with the following benefits (the “CIC Severance Benefits”):

(a) CICSeverance. The Company shall pay you, as severance, the equivalent of twelve (12) months (the **“CIC Severance Period”)**of your Base Salary in effect as of the Separation Date and your full target annual bonus for the calendar year in which the Separation Date occurs, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings (the “CIC Severance”). The• CIC Severance will be paid in a lump sum on the first regularly-scheduled payroll date after your Separation from Service, provided the Separation Agreement has become effective.

| 4. |

| --- |

(b)Payment of Continued Group Health Plan Benefits. If you are eligible for and timely elect continued group health plan coverage under COBRA following your Separation Date, the Company will pay your COBRA group health insurance premiums for you and your eligible dependents directly to the insurer until the earliest of (A) the end of the period immediately following your Separation Date that is equal to twelve (12) months (the “CIC COBRA Payment Period”), (B) the expiration of your eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA, or (C) the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. For purposes of this Section, references to COBRA premiums shall not include any amounts payable by you under a Section 125 health care reimbursement plan under the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA premiums without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then regardless of whether you elect continued health coverage under COBRA, and in lieu of providing the COBRA premiums, the Company will instead pay you on the last day of each remaining month of the CIC COBRA Payment Period, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premiums for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings (such amount, the “Special SeverancePayment”), which payments shall continue until the earlier of expiration of the CIC COBRA Payment Period or the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. On the first payroll date following the effectiveness of the Separation Agreement, the Company will make the first payment to the insurer under this clause (and, in the case of the Special Severance Payment, such payment will be to you, in a lump sum) equal to the aggregate amount of payments that the Company would have paid through such date had such payments instead commenced on the Separation Date, with the balance of the payments paid thereafter on the schedule described above. If you become eligible for coverage under another employer’s group health plan, you must immediately notify the Company of such event, and all payments and obligations under this subsection shall cease.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall you be entitled to benefits under both Section 6.3 and this Section 6.4. If you are eligible for benefits under both Section 6.3 and this Section 6.4, you shall receive the benefits set forth in this Section 6.4 and such benefits shall be reduced by any benefits previously provided to you under Section 6.3.

6.5 Terminationfor Cause; Resignation Without Good Reason; Death or Disability. If you resign without Good Reason, or the Company terminates your employment for Cause, upon dissolution or cessation of the Company, or upon your death or disability, then (a) all payments of compensation by the Company to you hereunder will terminate immediately (except as to amounts already earned), and (b) you will not be entitled to any Severance Benefits or CIC Severance Benefits.

6.6 Conditionsto Receipt of Severance Benefits and CIC Severance Benefits. The receipt of the Severance Benefits and CIC Severance Benefits will be subject to you signing and not revoking a separation agreement and general release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Separation Agreement”) by no later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Separation Date (“ReleaseDeadline”). No Severance Benefits or CIC Severance Benefits will be paid or provided until the Separation Agreement becomes effective. You shall also resign from all positions and terminate any relationships as an employee, advisor, officer or director with the Company and any of its affiliates, each effective on the Separation Date.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Involuntary Termination” means a termination of your employment with the Company pursuant to either (i) a termination initiated by the Company without Cause, or (ii) your resignation for Good Reason, and provided in either case such termination constitutes a Separation from Service. An Involuntary Termination does not include any other termination of your employment, including a termination due to your death or disability.

7.7Separation from Service. For purposes of this Agreement, “Separation from Service” means a “separation from service”, as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A- l(h).

8. Proprietary Information<br>Obligations.

As a condition of your employment with the Company, you shall execute and continue to abide by the Company’s standard form of Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), attached as ExhibitA. In your work for the Company, you will be expected not to use or disclose any confidential information, including trade secrets, of any former employer or other person to whom you have an obligation of confidentiality. Rather, you will be expected to use only that information which is generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to your own, which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain, or which is otherwise provided or developed by the Company. You agree that you will not bring onto Company premises any unpublished documents or property belonging to any former employer or other person to whom you have an obligation of confidentiality. You also agree to honor all obligations to former employers during your employment with the Company. You hereby represent that you have disclosed to the Company any contract you have signed that may restrict your activities on behalf of the Company.

9. Section 409A.

It is intended that all of the severance benefits and other payments payable under this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Code Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A l(b)(4), 1.409A l(b)(5) and 1.409A I (b)(9), and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions, and to the extent not so exempt, this Agreement (and any definitions hereunder) will be construed in a manner that complies with Section 409A. For all purposes of Code Section 409A (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A 2(b)(2)(i) and (iii)), your right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement (whether severance payments, reimbursements or otherwise) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each installment payment hereunder shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are deemed by the Company at the time of your Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), and if any of the payments upon Separation from Service set forth herein and/or under any other agreement with the Company are deemed to be “deferred compensation,” then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of such payments is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the related adverse taxation under Section 409A, such payments shall not be provided to you prior to the earliest of (i) the first date following expiration of the six-month period following the date of your Separation from Service with the Company, (ii) the date of your death or (iii) such earlier date as permitted under Section 409A without the imposition of adverse taxation. Upon the first business day following the expiration of such applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be paid in a lump sum to you, and any remaining payments due shall be paid as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable agreement. No interest shall be due on any amounts so deferred. If the severance benefits are not covered by one or more exemptions from the application of Section 409A and the Release Deadline occurs in the calendar year following the. calendar year of your Separation from Service, the Separation Agreement will not be deemed effective any earlier than the Release Deadline for purposes of determining the timing of provision of any severance benefits.

10. Section 280G.

If any payment or benefit you will or may receive from the Company or otherwise (a “280G Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then any such 280G Payment pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”) shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment (after reduction) being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount (i.e., the amount determined by clause (x) or by clause (y)), after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in your receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in a Payment is required pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Reduced Amount is determined pursuant to clause (x) of the preceding sentence, the reduction shall occur in the manner (the “Reduction Method”) that results in the greatest economic benefit for you. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata ReductionMethod”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Reduction Method or the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Payment being subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A that would not otherwise be subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A, then the Reduction Method and/or the Pro Rata Reduction Method, as the case may be, shall be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A as follows: (A) as a first priority, the modification shall preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit for you as determined on an after-tax basis; (B) as a second priority, Payments that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without Cause), shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and (C) as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A.

Unless you and the Company agree on an alternative accounting firm, the accounting firm engaged by the Company for general tax compliance purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the change in control transaction triggering the Payment shall perform the foregoing calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the change in control transaction, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder to provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to you and the Company within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which your right to a 280G Payment becomes reasonably likely to occur (if requested at that time by you or the Company) or such other reasonable time as requested by you or the Company.

| 7. |

| --- |

If you receive a Payment for which the Reduced Amount was determined pursuant to clause (x) of the first paragraph of this Section and the Internal Revenue Service determines thereafter that some portion of the Payment is subject to the Excise Tax, you shall promptly return to the Company a sufficient amount of the Payment (after reduction pursuant to clause (x) of the first paragraph of this Section so that no portion of the remaining Payment is subject to the Excise Tax). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Reduced Amount was determined pursuant to clause (y) in the first paragraph of this Section, you shall have no obligation to return any portion of the Payment pursuant to the preceding sentence.

11. Arbitration of All Disputes.

11.1 Agreementto Arbitrate. To ensure the timely and economical resolution of disputes that may arise between you and the Company, both you and the Company mutually agree that pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1-16, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and the Company will submit solely to final, binding and confidential arbitration any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action arising from or relating to: (i) the negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance, breach or enforcement of this Agreement; or (ii) your employment with the Company (including but not limited to all statutory claims); or (iii) the termination of your employment with the Company (including but not limited to all statutory claims). BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATIONPROCEDURE, BOTH YOU AND THE COMPANY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO RESOLVE ANY SUCH DISPUTES THROUGH A TRIAL BY JURY OR JUDGE OR THROUGH AN ADMINISTRATIVEPROCEEDING.

11.2 ArbitratorAuthority. The arbitrator shall have the sole and exclusive authority to determine whether a dispute, claim or cause of action is subject to arbitration under this Section and to determine any procedural questions which grow out of such disputes, claims or causes of action and bear on their final disposition.

11.3 IndividualCapacity Only. All claims, disputes, or causes of action under this Section, whether by you or the Company, must be brought solely in an individual capacity, and shall not be brought as a plaintiff (or claimant) or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding, nor joined or consolidated with the claims of any other person or entity. The arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person or entity, and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. To the extent that the preceding sentences in this Section are found to violate applicable law or are otherwise found unenforceable, any claim(s) alleged or brought on behalf of a class shall proceed in a court of law rather than by arbitration.

| 8. |

| --- |

11.4 ArbitrationProcess. Any arbitration proceeding under this Section shall be presided over by a single arbitrator and conducted by JAMS in Westlake Village, CA, or as otherwise agreed to by you and the Company, under the then applicable JAMS rules for the resolution of employment disputes (available upon request and also currently available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration/). You and the Company both have the right to be represented by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding, at each party’s own expense. The arbitrator shall: (i) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution of the dispute; (ii) issue a written arbitration decision, to include the arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions and a statement of the award; and (iii) be authorized to award any or all remedies that you or the Company would be entitled to seek in a court of law. The Company shall pay all JAMS arbitration fees in excess of the amount of court fees that would be required of you if the dispute were decided in a court oflaw.

11.5 ExcludedClaims. This Section shall not apply to any action or claim that cannot be subject to mandatory arbitration as a matter of law, including, without limitation, sexual assault disputes and sexual harassment disputes as defined in the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), claims brought pursuant to the California Private Attorneys General Act of 2004, as amended, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, as amended, and the California Labor Code, as amended to the extent such claims are not permitted by applicable law to be submitted to mandatory arbitration and are not preempted by the FAA (collectively, the “Excluded Claims”). In the event you intend to bring multiple claims, including one of the Excluded Claims listed above, the Excluded Claims may be filed with a court, while any other claims will remain subject to mandatory arbitration.

11.6 InjunctiveRelief and Final Orders. Nothing in this Section is intended to prevent either you or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration. Any final award in any arbitration proceeding hereunder may be entered as a judgment in the federal and state courts of any competent jurisdiction and enforced accordingly.

12. General Provisions.

Exhibit 10.2

Letter of Understanding

This Letter of Understanding (“Letter”) is entered into as of September 30, 2025 by and between Genelux Corporation, a corporation established under the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, having a place of business at 2625 Townsgate Road, Suite 230, Westlake Village, CA 91361 (“Genelux”), and Newsoara Biopharma Co., Ltd., a corporation established under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China, having a registered place of business at Building 10, No. 860, Xinyang Road, Shanghai, China (“Newsoara”). Genelux and Newsoara may be individually referred to herein as a “Party” or, collectively, as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, Genelux and Newsoara are parties to that certain License Agreement dated September 27, 2021 (the “License Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Section 4.1.5 of the License Agreement requires Newsoara to conduct the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial in the U.S. and China, at Newsoara’s cost and expense; and

WHEREAS, Genelux and Newsoara entered into a Letter of Understanding dated November 6, 2023 (the “LOU”) to address the handling of certain startup activities with respect to the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial and the Parties desire to amend the LOU to address trial-related activities and expenses for the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial, as set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises set forth herein and in the License Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Capitalized<br> terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the License<br> Agreement.
2. Notwithstanding<br> Section 4.1.5(d) of the License Agreement (which requires Newsoara to engage and manage the<br> CRO), by agreement of the Parties Genelux engaged TigerMed under a Letter of Intent dated<br> November 15, 2023 (“LOI”) and a Clinical Trial Study Agreement dated September<br> 14, 2024 (including the LOI and work orders, the “TigerMed CTSA”) to conduct<br> the activities of the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial in the U.S., including without limitation<br> startup activities and actual trial activities. Subject to the budget set forth in Schedule<br> 4.1.5(f) of the License Agreement (the “Budget”), Newsoara shall reimburse Genelux<br> for all costs and expenses under Section 4.1.5(f) of the License Agreement incurred by Genelux<br> to conduct the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial in the U.S. in accordance with Section 4.1.5, including<br> without limitation all expenses under the TigerMed CTSA (whether incurred prior to or after<br> the date hereof) that have been actually incurred and borne by Genelux solely in connection<br> with the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial in the U.S., but expressly excluding the cost and expenses<br> of regulatory filing in the U.S. Newsoara shall make reimbursement payment to Genelux for<br> such costs and expenses within ninety (90) days after receipt of an invoice therefor. Notwithstanding<br> the foregoing, Newsoara may defer reimbursement payments hereunder for the NSCLC Multi-Center<br> Trial in the U.S. and make the payments to Genelux within ninety (90) days after the closing<br> of Newsoara’s initial public offering. If Newsoara’s initial public offering<br> has not closed by December 31, 2026, then Newsoara shall make all outstanding reimbursement<br> payments to Genelux by no later than December 31, 2026. Without prejudice to the foregoing,<br> if Newsoara expects that its initial public offering will not close prior to December 31,<br> 2026, then upon request of Newsoara the parties will consider in good faith potential alternative<br> payment arrangements satisfactory to the parties. Genelux will not invoice Newsoara for deferred<br> costs and expenses during the deferral period. Any change to the Budget or costs and expenses<br> for the NSCLC Multi-Center Trial in excess of the Budget shall be subject to mutual approval<br> in advance by the Parties.

This Letter supersedes the LOU. Except as expressly set forth in this Letter, all terms and conditions of the License Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the terms and conditions of this Letter shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the License Agreement.
