Our Strategy

PART I

Our  objective  is  to  develop  and  commercialize  our  product  candidates  to  treat  diseases  where  the  innate  immune  system  is  not  functioning
normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive and contribute to a tumor’s evasion
of  the  immune  system  and/or  disease  progression  while  expression  of  MUC4  and  cells  of  the  tumor  microenvironment  such  as  Myeloid  Derived
Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic
and metabolic diseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression or infectious disease where
cytokine storm causes a hypermetabolic state that causes the need to seek medical attention. Our initial focus will be the treatment of cancer, treatment
of Alzheimer’s Disease (“AD”), treatment of Treatment Resistant Depression (“TRD”), treatment of immune mediated complications due to COVID-19 and
non-alcoholic  steatohepatitis  (“NASH”).  In  cancer,  we  plan  to  pursue  two  parallel  development  programs:  (1)  with  INKmune  we  will  initially  focus  on
treating resistant disease women with  relapse  refractory  ovarian  carcinoma  and  patients  with  high-risk  myelodysplastic  syndrome  (high  risk  MDS);  (2)
with INB03, we will treat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood and evidence of disease that is resistant
to immunotherapy including women with MUC4 expressing HER2+ breast cancer. Our third drug candidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease and
TRD. XPro1595 for AD is progressing through Phase I trials and is being prepared for Phase II trials. XPro1595 for TRD is being prepared for Phase II
trials.  Our  fourth  drug  candidate,  LIVNate,  will  be  used  to  treat  patients  with  NASH.  Our  final  drug,  Quellor  is  in  Phase  II  trials  for  the  treatment  of
pulmonary complications due to COVID-19 infection. The principal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to:

●

pursue development  strategies  and  regulatory  approval  pathways  that  allow  the  treatment  of  oncology  patients  with  our  lead  product
candidates, INKmune and INB03;

●  pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patients with our

lead product candidates, XPro1595;

●

●

●

●

pursue  development strategies  and  regulatory  approval  pathways  that  allow  the  treatment  of  pulmonary  complications  from  COVID-19
infection patients with our lead product candidate, Quellor;

pursue  development  strategies  and  regulatory  approval  pathways  that  allow  the  treatment  of  NASH  in  patients  with  our  lead  product
candidates, LIVNate;

adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand our IP suite
into related immunotherapeutic areas;

provide clear  value  propositions  to  third-party  payers,  such  as  managed  care  companies  or  government  programs  like  Medicare,  to  merit
reimbursement for our product candidates; and

● Collaborate with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and the DN-TNF platform that includes
INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate product candidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our
current resources.

Pursue  development  and  regulatory  approval  pathways.  We  believe  Quellor,  INKmune,  INB03  and  XPro1595  may  be  approvable  under
pathways  that  are  potentially  shorter  than  those  typically  available  for  drug  products  based  on  novel  active  ingredients,  including  as  an  orphan  drug
under  the  Orphan  Drug  Act  and  approval  under  the  Food  and  Drug  Administration  (the  “FDA”)  Accelerated  Approval  Program  (see  “Government
Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) and/or FDA regarding such
designation, but plan to do so in the future. We believe both our INB03 HER2+ metastatic breast cancer program, high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma
treatment programs and our program Quellor to treat respiratory complications due to COVID19 infection fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these
regulatory  designations.  We  believe  that  it  would  take  a  minimum  of  six  months  to  receive  Orphan  Drug  status  once  we  submit  an  application  and  a
minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application. We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the
Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or have these applications approved if we do.

Adopt a two-pronged patent strategy.  We are pursuing a two-pronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify our existing IP to
prevent competition and expand our IP suite into related therapeutic areas. We are confident that our core in-licensed IP (see “Intellectual Property”) will
allow us both freedom-to-operate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue to invest in expanding our patent suite. We
will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to in-license IP related to our focus on the innate immune system.

Provide  clear  value  propositions  to  third-party  payors  to  merit  reimbursement  for  our  product  candidates .  We  are  designing  our  clinical
development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and to demonstrate value propositions to third-
party  payors.  We  believe  the  use  of  INKmune  and/or  INB03  in  patients  with  a  high  risk  of  tumor  progression  and  death  from  tumor  should  prolong
survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethal malignancies. For example, ovarian cancer
patients  relapse  frequently.  Each  relapse  requires  an  expensive,  hospital-based  treatment  regimen  that  has  decreasing  benefits.  Treatment  with
INKmune as an out-patient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatment-associated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we
believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and quality of life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved,
should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’s disease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost
of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The cost to families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of
patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide a strategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today. NASH, a silent
epidemic  in  the  US  due  to  the  high  incidence  of  obesity,  is  expected  to  be  the  most  common  cause  of  liver  transplant  2030.  There  are  no  approved
therapies for the NASH at this time. We believe treatment of patients requiring hospitalization due to medical complications of COVID-19 infection may
alter  the  arc  of  the  pandemic.  If  effective,  Quellor  should  allow  patients  to  be  discharged  from  the  hospital  more  quickly  and  decrease  the  risk  of
respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.

Collaborate to maximize the value of our technology . We believe there are two reasons for us to enter collaborations with other companies. The
first is the further development of INKmune, INB03, Quellor, LIVNate and XPro1595 by either providing additional innovations to the product, including
combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of the development process. The second is to optimize the
commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefit us in both ways.

We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we have identified
a  way  to  manufacture  human  mesenchymal  stem  cells  for  the  medical  research  and  biotech  community  that  offers  large  volumes  of  high-quality,  low
passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batch-to-batch variability. We believe this may solve the problem associated with
supplying  an  adequate  supply  of  human  mesenchymal  stem  cells  for  clinical  applications.  The  process  to  produce  pooled,  human  umbilical  cord
mesenchymal  stem  cells  was  developed  at  University  College  London.  We  have  established  a  reliable  supply  of  human  umbilical  cords  based  on  our
agreement  with  the  Anthony  Nolan  Cord  Blood  Bank  in  the  United  Kingdom.  We  have  developed  a  validated  manufacturing  process  that  reliably
produces  contract  manufacturer  of  the  clinical  grade  (“cGMP”)  quality  mesenchymal  stem  cells.  The  manufacturing  process  can  be  performed  at  a
contract  manufacturing  site  under  the  direction  of  Mark  Lowdell,  the  Company’s  CSO.  We  have  negotiated  an  exclusive  10-year  license  to  the
manufacturing  process  from  University  College  London  Business,  the  licensing  organization  of  University  College  London.  We  will  seek  academic
laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooled human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of
and  development  of  clinical  products.  Once  identified,  we  plan  to  act  as  a  cGMP  for  the  development  of  therapeutic  products  by  utilizing  contract
manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, we do not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer
identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in the UK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. We expect the commercial
arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of fee-for-service and licensing that does not require additional
investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for our own portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become
available.  The  regulatory  path  for  therapeutic  applications  of  the  mesenchymal  stem  cell  products  is  well  established  and  similar  to  the  regulatory
approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible for regulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells
when the product is being developed by a third party. When developing a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will
be responsible for all aspects of the regulatory process.

Overview of Immunotherapy for Cancer

The  immune  system  has  two  parts,  innate  and  adaptive.  The  innate  immune  system  is  the  body’s  first  line  of  defense  against  an  infection,
providing  immediate,  non-specific  responses  to  eliminate  harmful  cells  in  the  body.  Components  of  the  innate  immune  system  include  cytokines,
chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.

The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cells and
plays a role protecting against re-infection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a pathogen or antigen and is developed or learned from
prior  exposure.  Key  components  of  the  adaptive  immune  system  include  antibodies  which  bind  to  antigens  and  mark  them  for  destruction  by  other
immune cells, B-cells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and T-cells which attack and eliminate the diseased cells.

The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immune systems for

therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.

Cytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin-2 (“IL-2”). Interferons are
molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They have been used as standard of
care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, including chronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous
T-cell  lymphoma,  myeloma  and  non-Hodgkin’s  lymphoma.  However,  the  use  of  interferons  has  generally  decreased  over  the  years  due  to  serious
adverse events (e.g., flu-like symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapies with higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more
convenient  administration  although  Alpha-interferon  remains  the  treatment  of  choice  for  some  hematological  conditions  such  as  polycythemia.  IL-2
activates T-cells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL-2 has been used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians
often  only  resort  to  this  therapy  for  the  most  advanced  settings.  Tumor  Necrosis  Factor  alpha  (“TNF”)  is  the  focus  of  INB03.  TNF  biology  has  four
elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNF and trans-membrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and
2  (“TNFR1”  and  “TNFR2”).  The  biology  of  TNF  ligation  of  TNFR  varies  dramatically  based  on  what  elements  of  the  TNF  system  that  are  used.  sTNF
binding  to  TNFR1  is  responsible  for  inflammation  and  cell  death  while  sTNF  binding  to  TNFR2  promotes  proliferation  of  regulatory  T  cells  (“Treg”).  In
patients with advanced cancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to long-term survival because it promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transformation and
metastasis while making the tumor microenvironment more immunosuppressive promoting resistance to therapy. In the CNS, sTNF promotes neuronal
cell  death,  demyelination  and  synaptic  pruning  while  tmTNF  promotes  nerve  cell  survival,  improves  synaptic  function  and  stimulates  remyelination.  In
brief,  sTNF  is  the  “bad”  TNF  and  tmTNF  is  the  “good”  TNF.  In  patients  with  cancer,  infection  or  neurologic  disease,  blockade  of  tmTNF  function  has
negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection, synaptic dysfunction and demyelination.

Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats: monoclonals (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibody-drug conjugates. mAbs represent an
effective  therapeutic  modality  and  are  important  to  the  treatment  paradigm  of  various  diseases.  Drug  manufacturers  have  leveraged  mAbs’  ability  to
induce an antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of life of patients.
In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have overcome in vivo immune suppression and the resulting immune
responses have led to profound therapeutic benefit in some patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune
system of patients, many of whom are severely immuno-compromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched
PD-1 and PDL1 checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population.
In addition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecific antibodies,
for example bi-specific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell in contact with a target cell.
Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killing payload directly to the cancer.

Dendritic  Cell  Therapies.  This  approach  is  designed  to  indirectly  stimulate  a  patient’s  T-cells  by  leveraging  the  role  of  dendritic  cells  in
presenting  antigens  to  T-cells.  Cancer  vaccines  are  the  most  common  application  of  dendritic  cells.  The  only  FDA-approved  dendritic  cell  therapy  is
PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with the patient’s cancer antigens,
and then re-infusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intact and effective immune system of
the  patient.  There  are  additional  ongoing  preclinical  studies  and  clinical  trials  being  conducted  by  our  competitors  aimed  at  addressing  certain  of  the
limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic cell therapies have been mixed.

CAR-T and TCR Therapies.  T-cells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside the diseased
cells. CAR-T therapy entails genetically engineering T-cells to express synthetic CARs that direct T-cells to antigens on the surface of cancer cells. TCR
therapy modifies T-cells to express high-affinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intra-cellular antigens that must be presented on the surface of target
cells. In early clinical trials, CAR-T and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive anti-tumor activity in a narrow spectrum of hematologic cancers
and  garnered  significant  attention  by  research  institutions  and  biopharmaceutical  companies.  We  believe  a  key  limitation  of  adaptive  autologous
immunotherapy  is  the  need  to  retrieve  non-compromised  immune  cells  from  a  cancer  patient  which  requires  a  complex  and  costly  manufacturing
process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected in the price of the two approved therapies. CAR-T therapies -
tisagenlecleucel  and  axicabtagene  ciloleucel  for  advanced  leukemia  and  lymphoma  respectively.  The  cost  of  a  single  therapy  is  many  hundreds  of
thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active T-cells, current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CAR-T cell therapy in large part
enroll  patients  from  highly  selected,  often  relatively  early-stage  disease  in  a  narrow  spectrum  of  cancers,  including  bulky  hematological  cancers.  In
addition,  Phase  I  clinical  trials  of  CAR-T  cell  immunotherapy  have  reported  severe  adverse  toxicities  of  cytokine  release  syndrome  and  neurotoxicity,
requiring hospitalization, pre-conditioning and, in some instances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release
syndrome. As a result, though our competitors continue to develop their CAR-T and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the
limitations associated with these approaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including
solid tumors.

Checkpoint  Inhibitors.  Immune  cells  express  proteins  that  are  immune  checkpoints  that  control  and  down-regulate  the  immune  response.
These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD-1, CTLA-4, TIM-3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to these receptors. When T cells
bind  the  ligand  to  these  proteins  on  the  tumor  cells,  the  T  cell  is  turned  off  and  does  not  attempt  to  attack  the  tumor  cell.  Thus,  checkpoint  inhibitors
(“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and are responsible for resistance to immunotherapy.
Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligand interaction to promote the adaptive immune response to
the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab, avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid
tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. More CPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of
sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone of cancer therapy and are expected to be the best -selling class of drugs by 2027.

NK Cells.  NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immune system
responsible  for  innate  immunity.  Unlike  adaptive  immune  cells,  they  are  ever  present  and  ready  to  attack,  having  the  inherent  ability  to  detect  and
eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”

NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to release cytokines,
including, interferons and GM-CSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NK cells also represent
a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body or administered, are selectively
destroyed by the NK cells.

MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronic infection and
with  cancer.  In  cancer,  MDSC  are  a  unique  and  well-defined  cell  population  that  home  to  the  cancer  and  secrete  immunosuppressive  cytokines  that
provide  a  protective,  immunosuppressive  shield  to  the  tumor.  This  protective  immunosuppressive  shield  prevents  the  patient’s  immune  system  from
attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in the patient’s blood predict for more advanced disease,
resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.

Our Innate Immune Dominant-Negative TNF product candidate

We renamed XPro1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to call the drug
XPro1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease and TRD discussed below. We call the drug Quellor and
LIVNate  respectively  for  treatment  of  pulmonary  complications  of  COVID-19  and  NASH  respectively.  Quellor,  LIVNate,  INB03  and  XPro1595  are  the
same  drug  with  different  names  for  marketing  purposes.  INB03  is  a  novel  innate  immune  system  check-point  inhibitor  that  we  believe  decreases
expression of MUC4 by the tumor, an important resistance mechanism to immunotherapy, decreases proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion
of  immunosuppressive  cytokines  that  protect  the  tumor  from  the  patient’s  immunologic  attack  and  help  make  the  tumor  resistant  to  immunotherapy.
INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting trans-membrane TNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), decreases expression of
MUC4,  alters  the  immunoregulatory  cell  and  cytokine  profile  of  the  tumor  microenvironment  to  decrease  the  population  of  MDSC,  decrease
immunosuppressive  cytokines  and  increase  immunoregulatory  cytokines  that  changes  the  patient’s  immune  response  to  their  tumor  with  improved
NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response including recruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and
cytotoxic  T  cells  that  attack  the  cancer  allowing  for  decreased  resistance  to  immunotherapy  including  immune  checkpoint  inhibitors  (CPR),  anti-HER2
immunotherapy  such  as  Herceptin  and  kinase  inhibitors  such  as  lapatinib.  By  using  INB03  as  part  of  combination  therapy  for  cancer,  we  believe  the
patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to a coordinated immune response
that can overcome resistance mechanisms to immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in two animal models. In a murine model of
an  inflammatory  cancer,  where  3-methylcholanthrese  is  given  to  mice  in  a  subcutaneous  injection  that  causes  the  development  of  multiple  cutaneous
fibrosarcoma.  This  model  was  developed  by  Y  Akamatsu  in  1967  while  working  at  the  National  Cancer  Institute  of  the  NIH.  In  research  published  by
Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research  in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller and fewer cancers with increased survival.
INB03  is  an  engineered  PEGylated  protein  that  neutralizes  human  soluble  TNF,  a  human  inflammatory  cytokine  that  is  increased  in  patients  with
advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation of STAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of
the  MDSC  population,  and  secretion  of  the  immunosuppressive  cytokines.  The  combination  of  decreased  MDSC  proliferation  and  decreased
immunosuppressive  cytokines  allows  the  immune  system  to  respond  to  the  tumor.  This  data  was  published  in  an  article  entitled  Inhibition  of  Soluble
Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Mice in Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research  2016. In
summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive
shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune system is able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor. TNF plays an
important  role  in  breast  cancer  (Schillaci  R,  Front.  Oncol.,  22  April  2020  | https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2020.00584).  In  a  murine  model  of  trastuzumab
resistant breast cancer using JMIT-1 cells, a human cell line of HER2 positive breast cancer resistant to trastuzumab placed into immunocompromised
mice,  INB03  downregulates  MUC4  from  the  surface  of  the  JMIT-1  HER2+  breast  cancer  cells  to  allow  the  trastuzumab  resistant  cells  to  become
trastuzumab  sensitive  (Figure  A  from  Bruni,  NYAS  2020)  to  decrease  tumor  growth  (from  Schillaci  SABCS  2018,  Figure  B).  JMIT-1  cells  are  also
resistant to lapatinib, a TKI inhibitor used as a second line therapy in women with trastuzumab resistant HER2+ breast cancer. The addition of INB03 to
lapatinib in the animal model reverses lapatinib resistance in part by decreasing expression of MUC4 (from Bruni NYAS 2020, Figure C). In addition to
decreasing  resistance  to  trastuzumab  by  decreasing  MUC4  expression,  INB03  decreases  the  immunosuppressive  tumor  microenvironment  (Schillaci
SABCS 2018, Bruni NYAS 2020). These data are relevant to all tumors that express HER2 and MUC4 including upper gastrointestinal malignancies such
as gastric and pancreatic cancer.

Because INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treat many
types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be based on biomarkers
that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer or chronic inflammation. Because
MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronic inflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood
levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) may be used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit
from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamic effect of INB03. Other biomarkers of inflammation may be useful in
predicting if a patient will benefit from therapy with INB03 such as Our Phase I clinical trial focused on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is a typical
Phase I clinical trial design for first-in-man trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approved cancer therapies as
part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer, because INB03 therapy targets
the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific type of cancer to meet the current system of
regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC who have lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for
the treatment of patients with renal cell cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need to perform a pivotal trial in patients with renal cancer. Likewise, if
we want to get approval of treatment of women with HER2 positive breast cancer who express MUC4, we will need to perform a trial in those patients and
the results of that trial may be independent of MDSC levels. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and cost of
achieving  these  labels  extensions  will  decline  with  each  successive  approval.  At  this  time,  we  cannot  predict  if  patients  without  biomarkers  of
inflammation, elevated MDSC or cytokines, or increased expression of MUC4 will benefit from treatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in
the future, but they are not a priority.

XPro1595 neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumor microenvironment but the
effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in the brain are microglial and astroglial
cells. The glial cell are two of four cells in the neural unit that also includes oligodentrocytes and nerve cells. Activated microglial cells are considered the
resident  macrophages  of  the  brain.  The  primary  role  of  microglial  cells  is  to  protect  the  neural  unit  from  infection.  When  innate  immune  dysfunction
causes  chronic  inflammation,  activated  microglial  cells  produce  soluble  TNF  that  activates  astrocytes.  Activated  glial  cells  cause  nerve  cell  and
oligodrocyte  dysfunction  that  results  in  synaptic  pruning,  nerve  cell  death  and  demyelination  of  neurons.  These  pathologies  contribute,  in  part,  to
neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS, Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and TBI (traumatic brain injury) may contribute
to  neuropsychiatric  diseases  such  as  depression,  bi-polar  disease,  sleep  disorders,  autism,  schizophrenia  and  PTSD.  In  the  setting  of  AD,  microglial
activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that contributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of
AD  including  depression,  aggressiveness,  sleep  disorders,  hallucinations  and  anhedonia.  Elimination  of  microglial  activation  should  reverse  these
symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in the inflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent
glial activation and normalizes function of the neural unit.

The Company has an on-going Phase I trial using XPro1595 to reverse neuroinflammation in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. The trial is being
performed in Australia and is partially funded by a $1M USD Part-the-Cloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association. The clinical trial is the first in the
Company’s  development  program  for  the  treatment  of  dementia.  The  open  label,  dose  escalation  trial  in  patients  with  Alzheimer’s  disease  with
biomarkers of peripheral inflammation (one of CRP>1.5mg/L, HgbA1c>6.0, ESR>10sec or have ApoE4) treats the patients with XPro1595 as a once-a-
week subcutaneous injection for 3 months. Patients have multiple biomarkers of neuroinflammation tested before and during therapy including soluble
biomarkers in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, volatile biomarkers in breath, behavioral biomarkers (neuropsychiatric symptoms of AD) and neuroimaging
biomarkers  using  MRI.  The  primary  goal  of  this  short,  open  label  study  is  to  demonstrate  that  treatment  with  XPro1595  decreases  neuroinflammation
safely and to define the dose of XPro1595 to use in the Phase II trial. Studies of cognitive function are performed on the patients but are not expected to
show significant change because of the short duration of the trial and the wide range of disability in patients enrolled in the clinical trial (MMSE range: 24-
12). The goal of the planned Phase II trial will be to demonstrate the prolonged control of neuroinflammation in patients with dementia will help control
cognitive decline. Although the trial has not been designed, we expect the trial be of a longer duration than the Phase I trial.

The trial continues to enroll patients. More than half of the expected 18 patients have been enrolled. Preliminary data was presented in a webinar
on 13 July 2020. Neuroimaging data from six patients were presented in the figure below. In summary, treatment with XPro1595 at either 0.3 or 1.0mg/kg
once-a-week as a subcutaneous injection (low and high dose respectively) decreased white matter free water (WMFW) as measured by MRI. WMFW is a
validated biomarker of neuroinflammation. Although the number of patients is low, there was a dose response with a greater decrease in WMFW in the
high  dose  compared  to  the  low  dose  group.  An  analysis  of  inflammation  in  white  matter  tracts  demonstrated  a  significant  decrease  in  WMFW  (40%;
range 20-52%) in the arcute fasciculus, a white matter tract important in the control of language and short-term memory (Figure D). These data suggest
XPro1595 is decreasing neuroinflammation in patients with Alzheimer’s disease who have biomarkers of peripheral inflammation.

Additional data was presented on January 21, 2021. The goal of the January 21 data release was to show a correlation between the white matter
free water, a novel biomarker of inflammation with cerebral spinal fluid (“CSF”) cytokines and chemokine levels, a traditional measure neuroinflammation.
CSF cytokine/chemokines were measure in 9 patients before and after 12 weeks of weekly therapy with XPro1595 using a panel from OLINK Target 48
Cytokine (https://www.olink.com/products/olink-target-48-cytokine/), that measures 45 (Figure AD1).

In the 6 patients in the 1mg/kg per week dose, only one cytokine and chemokine, interferon gamma (INFg) did not change in the CSF of patients,
the  remainder  all  decreased  on  average  of  15%.  Using  data  from  all  patients  treated  for  12  weeks  (3  low  dose,  6  high  dose),  a  high  correlation
(R2=.7561) between the white matter free water safe mase and the inflammation composite score is shown in figure AD2. The data analyzed provides
evidence that XPro1595 decreases neuroinflammation in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.

looking  at 

the  CSF  proteome  using 

We  believe  these  data  support  the  use  of  XPro1595  to  treat  other  diseases  where  neuroinflammation  is  a  part  of  the  pathophysiology  of  the
disease.  The  company  studied  the  consequences  of  decreasing  neuroinflammation  in  the  6  patients  from  high  dose  group  (XPro1595  1mg/kg  for  12
weeks)  be 
their  TMT  Calibrator™  platform
(https://www.proteomics.com/services/tmtcalibrator-workflow). A large data set of proteins were identified. Early analysis of the data focusing on 26 AD
related  proteins  demonstrated  changes  in  inflammation,  neuronal  and  synaptic  proteins  caused  by  decreasing  neuroinflammation  after  treatment  with
XPro1595  (Figure  AD3).  The  proteome  also  demonstrated  a  clear  dose  response  with  a  greater  number  of  proteins  being  affected  by  the  high  dose
compared  to  low  dose  XPro1595  therapy  (0.3  vs  1.0  mg/kg/week  for  12  weeks)  (Figure  AD4).  The  CSF  proteome  data  is  only  partially  analyzed.
Additional data may result from these ongoing analytics. In summary, these data allow the Company to commit to initiating a blinded randomized Phase II
trial in Alzheimer’s disease patients with peripheral biomarkers of inflammation in the second half of 2021. The design of the trial has not been finalized
nor has the Company had discussions with the FDA. Hence the precise start date depends on gaining regulatory approval for trial initiation by the FDA
and resolution of the COVID19 pandemic.

for  Proteome  Sciences  using 

technology 

COVID-19  infection  causes  a  cytokine  storm  in  many  patients.  The  cytokine  storm  includes  elevated  levels  of  TNF,  IL6,  IL1  and  other  pro-
inflammatory  cytokines  in  the  patient’s  blood.  The  cytokine  storm  correlates  with  symptoms  of  COVID19  of  one  or  more  organ  systems  -  neurologic,
gastrointestinal, pulmonary, cardiovascular and renal. In 20% of patients, the cytokine storm causes severe enough symptoms to require hospitalization.
Targeting soluble TNF may have benefit in hospitalized patients with cytokine storm for two reasons. TNF may be the “master cytokine”. Up-regulation of
TNF  is  required  for  expression  of  IL6  and  IL1,  the  two  other  prominent  cytokines  of  the  cytokine  storm.  TNF  activates  endothelial  cells  to  upregulate
Tissue Factor that cause the formation of blood clots. Aberant blood clots contribute to the pathology in patients with COVID-19 infection.

The  Company  initiated  a  blinded  randomized  trial  using  Quellor  to  treat  hospitalized  patients  with  respiratory  symptoms  due  to  a  COVID-19
infection. The 366-patient trial is being perform under an FDA IND#151,834 in multiple centers in the US. The trial includes a Go/NoGo decision by the
Data  Safety  Monitoring  Board  (“DSMB”)  after  the  first  100  patients.  No  data  will  be  released  by  the  DSMB  other  than  the  trial  should  continue  or  be
closed.  The  trial  enrolls  patients  admitted  to  the  hospital  who  are  considered  high  risk  for  developing  the  need  for  mechanical  respiratory  support.
Patients are randomized to receive a single dose of Quellor, 1mg/kg as a subcutaneous injection or placebo. If patients remain in the hospital for one
week, they may get a second dose of the investigational product. The primary end-point is the need for mechanical ventilation or death by 28 days. The
final safety visit is at or about day 40. Quellor is identical to XPro1595, INB03 and LIVNate. The trial is listed on www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Effective therapy for TRD is a large unmet need. Twenty percent of patients with a Major Depressive Disorder have TRD. Once third of TRD
patients have peripheral biomarkers to inflammation (elevated CRP). This is a large patient population. The role of TNF and anti-TNF therapeutics was
explored  in  a  small  open  label  clinical  trial  by  Prof.  Andrew  Miller,  MD  of  Emory  University  demonstrated  the  patients  have  elevated  TNF  levels  and
treatment with infliximab treated their depression (Miller, 2011).

The  Company  received  a  $2.9M  USD  award  from  the  National  Institute  of  Mental  Health  (“NIMH”)  to  treat  TRD  with  XPro1595.  The  blinded,
randomized Phase II trial will use a biomarkers of peripheral inflammation to select patients with TRD for enrollment. Patients will be treated for 6 weeks.
Primary end-points include both clinical and neuroimaging measures. The final trial design is ongoing and discussions with the FDA are not complete.
The Company anticipates receiving authorization to initiate the clinical trial in the second half of 2021.

LIVNate neutralizes soluble TNF in the treatment of NASH the same way that INB03 and XPro1595 neutralize soluble TNF for the treatment of
cancer and neurodegenerative diseases respectively. NASH is a complex disease with inflammatory, metabolic and fibrotic components that contribute to
disease progression. The effects of LIVNate on NASH are diverse. Based on murine data, we believe there are 3 major pathologic cycles that contribute
to  NASH.  The  peripheral  pathologic  cycle  is  metabolic  with  obesity  and  insulin  resistance  contributing  to  the  inflammatory  and  metabolic  process  that
drives NASH. The regional pathologic cycle includes intestinal inflammation with resulting leaky gut that drives the development mesenteric fat. All three
elements contribute to a highly inflammatory mileau delivered directly to the liver via the portal vein. The local pathologic loop includes lipotoxicity and
innate  immune  dysfunction  caused  by  activated  hepatic  stellate  cell,  natural  killer  cells  and  hepatocytes.  These  pathologic  cycles  cause  hepatocyte
death,  inflammation  and  fibrosis  –  the  pathologic  hallmarks  of  NASH.  In  murine  models  of  NASH,  LIVNate  has  effects  on  each  pathologic  cycle
decreasing insulin resistance, intestinal inflammation and leak, hepatic inflammation, hepatocyte death and fibrosis. These results must be confirmed in
humans.

INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate, are delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per
week.  Because  this  is  a  simple  subcutaneous  injection  similar  to  an  insulin  injection  (the  therapy  patients  give  themselves  for  treatment  of  Type  1
diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visits to receive
the therapy.

Three step process to preparation for INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate for human clinical trials:

Release of INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate drug supply

GMP DN-TNF product (INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate) are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The
annual process for release testing was completed in February 2018, January 2019, December 2019 and November 2020. The supply of DN-TNF product
is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I study in Alzheimer’s disease and Phase II studies in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The re-
release dossier has been submitted to the regulatory authorities in Australia and the US (the FDA). We received notification on May 2018 that the INB03
can be used for oncology clinical trials and in May 2019 that XPro1595 can be used in Alzheimer’s disease clinical trials in AUS and in August 2020 that
Quellor can be used for the COVID-19 clinical trial in the US. For future trials, new batches of INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate will need to be
produced.  We  plan  to  use  a  two-step  approach  to  production  of  the  new  drug  supply.  We  hope  to  improve  the  yield  of  the  drug  product  using  the
existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, we will perform a manufacturing campaign drug for future clinical trials.
This  process  has  started  at  our  manufacturing  vendor  KBI.  The  company  expects  the  first  batches  of  new  drug  to  be  available  4Q21  assuming  that
manufacturing  materials  remain  available  and  are  not  consumed  by  COVID-19  vaccine  manufacturers.  We  expect  the  existing  drug  supply  to  support
clinical development program until mid-2021. New drug supply may not be available before the existing drug supply has been exhausted.

Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03, XPro1595 and LIVNate Development

We have completed a Phase I trial with INB03 in oncology. We are enrolling patients in a Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with Alzheimer’s
disease  and  a  Phase  II  trial  with  Quellor  to  treat  hospitalized  patients  with  respiratory  complications  from  COVID-19.  The  Phase  II  program  with
Alzheimer’s disease will start after completion of the on-going Phase I program. The Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with Alzheimer’s disease is
performed  in  Australia  under  the  regulatory  authority  of  the  TGA  using  the  Clinical  Trials  Exemption  (“CTX”)  scheme.  Our  first  interaction  with  the
regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors
on May 21, 2018. The second interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2019. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial
with XPro1595 in patients with Alzheimer’s disease in May 2019. Our first interaction with the FDA occurred in July 2020. We received authorization to
begin enrolling patients in the COVID19 trial late August 2020. We plan to discuss the Phase II Alzheimer’s disease and Phase II TRD clinical trials with
the FDA during the first half of 2021.

INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase II Studies in patients with cancer

Phase  I  open  label  study  in  patients  with  advance  solid  tumors  has  been  completed.  All  future  studies  cancer  will  use  INB03  as  part  of
combination therapy. Based on the results of the Phase I study and work performed and reported by Prof. Roxana Schillaci, we are planning a study of
INB03 in combination with currently approved second line therapy for treatment of tumors that express MUC4. This may include a study in women with
trastuzumab resistant HER2+ metastatic breast cancer where primary or secondary resistance to trastuzumab is common and may include women with
brain metastasis. Alternatively, a combination therapy trial in MUC4 expressing tumors of the upper gastrointestinal tract such as gastric or pancreatic
cancer may be performed. These trials will not be initiated until the COVID-19 pandemic has run its course. We do not expect to treat patients in a Phase
II trial with INB03 before 2022.

INB03 Registration Studies and/or Partnering

We plan to pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer and biomarkers of inflammation. We
believe that this strategy has use across many types of solid tumors including patients who have failed CPI, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (“TKI”) and anti-
cancer  antibody  therapy  We  have  an  active  partnering  position  as  it  relates  to  INB03  development  in  cancer,  although  no  partnering  discussion  are
underway  at  this  time.  We  do  not  expect  partnering  discussions  to  begin  until  Phase  II  data  demonstrating  efficacy  of  INB03  as  part  of  combination
therapy for cancer are available.

Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. The Phase I trial suggests the drug should not be used alone to treat cancer
but  used  in  combination  with,  but  not  limited  to,  other  cancer  therapies  including  cytotoxic  chemotherapy,  immunotherapy,  radiation  and  surgery.  We
believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers.

INB03, XPro1595, Quellor and LIVNate Regulatory Strategy

Drugs from the DN-TNF platform will be developed using adequately powered, well designed studies with the goal to demonstrate a meaningful
clinical  benefit  to  patients.  In  general,  these  will  be  blinded,  randomized  clinical  trials  using  validated  end-points  that  have  been  authorized  by  a
regulatory authority – the FDA, TGA, MHRA, EMA, etc. Currently, all planned studies will be performed in North America, AUS and/or the UK. Studies
will  be  expanded  to  Europe  and  beyond  as  resources  permit  and  development  needs  expand.  Because  there  are  no  therapies  similar  to  INB03,
XPro1595, Quellor or LIVNate approved in any market and no therapies approved for the treatment of the diseases we are pursuing, we plan to take
advantage  of  the  regulatory  opportunities  afforded  to  therapies  that  treat  markets  with  a  high  unmet  need.  In  the  U.S.,  this  includes  Orphan  Drug
Designation  and  expedited  programs  for  approval  including  Accelerated  Approval,  Breakthrough  Therapy  Designation,  Fast  Track  Designation,  and
priority review (see “Government Regulation”), and in the setting of COVID-19, Emergency Use Authorization. We cannot predict which, if any, of these
programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we
have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.

Immunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease

XPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03, Quellor and LIVNate in every way but
name. The name XPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation
are important causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
The  relationship  between  β  amyloid  plaques  and  tau  neurofibrillary  tangles,  the  traditional  targets  in  AD  drug  development  and  neuroinflammation  is
complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targeting neuroinflammation, the final common pathway
of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct pre-clinical data supports  the  use  of  XPro1595  in  murine  models  of  AD.  Substantial
indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD in patients treated with non-selective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid
arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus. Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the non-
selective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk of immunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS. The Company reported preliminary data
on  July  13,  2020  and  January  21,  2021  supporting  the  use  of  XPro1595  to  decrease  neuroinflammation  in  patients  with  Alzheimer’s  disease  and
biomarkers of peripheral inflammation (see above)

We  continue  to  enroll  patients  into  an  open  label,  biomarker  directed,  Phase  I  clinical  trial  in  AUS  that  approaches  AD  as  an  immunologic
disease. Patients with dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with biomarkers of chronic inflammation that includes at least one of a hs-CRP>1.5 mg/L,
a ESR>10 mm/h, a HbgA1C>6.0% or are ApoE4 positive will be treated with XPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts were planned – 0.3, 1.0 and
3 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groups of inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks.
Biomarkers  will  be  tested  in  blood  and  cerebral  spinal  fluid,  white  matter  free  water  will  be  determined  by  MRI  and  a  “breath  test”  measuring  exhaled
volatile  organ  compounds  will  be  used  to  determine  a  signature  of  inflammation  in  AD  patients.  Finally,  behavioral  biomarkers  of  fatigue,  depression
aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders, behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine
if these behaviors improve as neuroinflammation is brought under control. The first patient was enrolled in the low dose 0.3mg/kg/week cohort in the last
week of November 2019. The Safety Review Committee met by teleconference on January 7, 2020 to review the course of the patients in the first cohort
and voted to open the second cohort, 1.0mg/kg/week, to enrollment. The first patients were enrolled in the cohort the second week of February 2020.
Based on preliminary data released on July 13, 2020 and January 21, 2021, we are confident that the clinical trial will be closed after completion of a
0.6mg/kg treatment group. We have canceled plans to treat patients with 3.0mg/kg. If safety is confirmed, the data from the Phase I trial will allow the
Company to choose a dose to bring forward into the Phase II trial and select biomarkers for that trial. We plan to meet with the FDA to present our plans
for the Phase II study in patients with AD in the first half of 2021. If those meetings and subsequent regulatory filings are successful, we plan to start
treating patients in the Phase II trial in the second half of 2021.

XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or Partnering

We  plan  to  aggressively  pursue  an  efficient  registration  strategy  using  XPro1595  to  improve  the  lives  of  patients  with  AD  with  biomarkers  of
inflammation.  We  believe  AD  is  not  the  only  indication  for  XPro1595  in  neurodegenerative  and  neuropsychiatric  diseases.  We  plan  to  pursue  other
indications  in  neurodegenerative  diseases  as  resources  become  available.  We  have  received  NIMH  funding  to  support  a  Phase  II  TRD  program  that
hopes  to  start  patient  enrollment  in  the  second  half  of  2021.  We  have  an  active  partnering  position  as  it  relates  to  XPro1595  development  in
neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partnering opportunities
with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing
the  drug  for  all  neurodegenerative  and  neuropsychiatric  applications.  The  second  is  a  more  focused  partnership  developing  XPro1595  as  part  of  a
combination  therapy  for  a  company’s  existing  therapy.  After  completion  of  proof-of-concept  Phase  II  studies,  we  will  decide  what  the  most  efficient
registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may to have biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also
seek to be acquired at this stage.

Immunotherapy for the treatment of NASH

LIVNate is being developed for the treatment of NASH. LIVNate is identical to INB03, Quellor and XPro1595 in every way but name. The name
LIVNate will be used as the drug name in the NASH development program. NASH is a pleiotropic disease with elements of metabolic, immunologic and
fibrotic pathophysiology contributing to disease development and progression. The Company believes targeting the metabolic and immunologic pathology
is the best way to treat NASH. Furthermore, we believe there are three pathologic drivers of NASH, two which originate beyond the liver (refer to Figure 7
below).  The  peripheral  pathologic  loop  includes  obesity  and  insulin  resistance.  The  regional  pathologic  loop  includes  intestinal  inflammation,  intestinal
leak and mesenteric fat, a source of inflammatory factors that are concentrated in portal blood. Finally, the local pathologic loop is caused by lipotoxicity
and  innate  immune  activation  in  the  liver  that  results  in  hepatocyte  death,  hepatitis  and  fibrosis,  the  hallmarks  of  NASH.  In  murine  studies  of  NASH,
LIVNate reverses insulin resistance, intestinal inflammation and decreases the NAS (“NAFLD Activity Score”) and Fibrosis score suggesting that LIVNate
may be an effective therapy for the treatment of NASH.

We are planning an open label Phase II study of patients with NASH. The study is planned as a proof-of-concept study in patients with F3/F3
disease  defined  by  non-invasive  laboratory  and  imaging  studies.  Patients  will  be  treated  with  LIVNate  for  6  months  by  once  a  week  subcutaneous
injection.  We  do  not  plan  to  perform  liver  biopsies  as  any  part  of  the  study.  If  the  study  is  positive,  further  development  of  LIVNate  in  NASH  will  be
considered. Further development may include additional clinical trials alone or with a partner or divesting the program. This clinical trial has been delayed
due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We do not expect to enroll patients into a NASH Phase II clinical trial until 2022 at the earliest.

LIVNate Registration Studies and/or Partnering Programs

Because NASH is an exceptionally dynamic area of drug development, the Company will decide on a development and/or partnering program
after the completion of the Phase II study. At this time, it is impossible to predict the development and commercial landscape or to know if LIVNate can
be used to treat NASH as a stand-alone drug or as part of combination therapy. Finally, the market for treatments of metabolic and inflammatory liver
diseases  may  expand  to  include  non-alcoholic  fatty  liver  disease  (“NAFLD”)  in  the  near  future.  This  market  expansion  may  impact  the  Company’s
development plans for LIVNate.

INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product Candidate

INKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becoming activated cancer-
killing NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivo which is the purpose of our
planned clinical trials.

● Cancers grow  and  relapse  because  they  evade  the  immune  system.  NK  cells  are  the  most  important  cell  for  the  elimination  of  residual
disease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signal the
NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively. An NK cell
must  receive  a  series  of  multiple  signals  through  a  network of  cell  surface  receptors  constituting  of  both  priming  and  triggering  signals.
Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that one cell, such as INKmune, may
deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cells defective in priming signals evade
NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not a single surface molecule on the NK cell, but a
complex combination  of  signals  from  multiple  cell  surface  ligands  which  lead  to  NK  priming  and  triggering  respectively.  Cancer  cells also
express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the final outcome of the NK-cancer cell conjugation is a balance of all
of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance of stimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill
a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry Lowdell Frontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept
is shown in the schematic form in Figure 1 below.

●

The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately  kills the host. The first priority for
survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression of priming ligands. When
an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis. This allows the cancer to evade
NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.

● W e have  described  the  functional  biology  underlying  the  interaction  of  NK  cells  and  cancer  cells.  We  believe  that  we  have  learned to
counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to a proprietary
tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmune to a resting NK cell,
it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell into a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK are poised to kill any cancer cell that
expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive pre-clinical testing, we believe this covers a large and heterogenous array of
primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenous leukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid
tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK binds to the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will
kill  the  cancer  cell  that was  previously  resistant  to  NK  cell  killing.  Based  on  the  pre-clinical  data,  we  believe  INKmune  will  convert  the
patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NK cells to kill their tumor.

● We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (“TpNK”) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) or monoclonal
antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at all times for the NK cell to
be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cell that cannot kill the cancer cell.
INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. Once INKmune causes the resting NK cell
to  become  a  TpNK,  the  NK  cell  remains  primed and  ready  to  kill  until  its  lytic  capacity  has  been  exhausted  by  lysis  of  tumor  cells.  The
second advantage is that TpNK can prime resting NK cells by contact-dependent activation and thus enhance the initial INKmune-mediated
priming.  Third,  TpNK do  not  require  a  specific  target  compared  to  MabNK.  Trastuzumab  (Herceptin™),  a  Mab  targeting  HER2  on  breast
cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breast cancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with  and
benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other 80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because  they can
not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy. INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer.  We believe the
pre-clinical and clinical data using tumor primed NK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and
activation of NK cells to kill the cancer and possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.

● We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the source  of the NK
cells  and  in  many  types  of  tumors  –  both  cell  lines  and  primary  tumors  from  patients.  The  principle  of  TpNK killing  has  also  been
demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These  trials were not supported by us and used a
first-generation  personalized  cell  therapy  product.  In  these  trials,  haplo-identical NK  cells  obtained  from  a  first  degree  relative  by
leukapheresis were primed ex-vivo using a lysate of the parent cell line from which we derived INB16 - INKmune. Once the TpNK therapy
has  been  produced  and  passed  quality  testing,  the  patient  received conditioning  therapy  with  chemotherapy  (cyclophosphamide  and
fludarabine),  the  primed  haplo-identical  NK  cells  were  given to  patients  by  intravenous  infusion.  Two  Phase  I  clinical  trials  have  been
performed using the first-generation treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2009
was  funded  by  a  UK  charity. Fifteen  patients  with  relapsed,  high-risk  AML  were  enrolled  in  the  trial.  Because  of  drop-out  due  to  disease
progression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated with the TpNK
cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolonged relapse free  remission
and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; all patients ultimately died from
disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from the chemotherapy conditioning regimen and
the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did require medical intervention including prolonged periods of
aplasia  in  two  heavily  pretreated  patients  that  resolved  with supportive  care.  The  results  of  this  study  have  been  published  in  a  medical
journal  (PLoS  One.  2015  Jun  10;10(6):e0123416. doi:  10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.  eCollection  2015).  In  2013,  a  second  open  label,
multi-center  trial  was  performed  in  the US  using  virtually  the  same  product  and  procedures  but  targeting  a  slightly  different  patient
population. In the second trial, 12 patients in first remission with AML were treated with the haplo-identical TpNK product produced using the
first generation ex-vivo priming process. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts –  3x10^5,
1x10^6 or 3x10^6 TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK
treatment in patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial with none of the previously experienced side
effects.  Patients  benefited  from  haplo-identical  TpNK  therapy  with  prolonged relapse  free  survival  including  two  patients  that  remain  in
remission  more  than  42  months  after  treatment.  This  trial  has been  published.  (Biol  Blood  Marrow  Transplant.  2018  Mar  26.  pii:  S1083-
8791(18)30132-0. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for
treating residual disease is sensible but unproven.

● Because  INKmune primes  NK  cells  to  target  naturally  occurring  antigens,  we  believe  INKmune  can  be  used  in  to  treat  a  wide  variety  of
cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian, pancreas and
lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.

●

The  primary  role for  INKmune  will  be  an  immunotherapy  targeting  residual  disease  in  patients  after  debulking  cancer  therapies  such  as
cytotoxic chemotherapy  and  surgery.  At  this  time,  we  plan  to  give  INKmune  as  monotherapy.  We  do  not  rule  out  the  possibility  of  using
INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additional types of cancer,
because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune to receive regulatory approval
for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety and effectiveness as a treatment for each
such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval, if and when
achieved.  For  example,  if  INKmune  is  proven  to  be  effective therapy  in  patients  with  ovarian  cancer  and  high-risk  MDS,  we  will  need  to
perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.

Three step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:

INKmune GMP scale-up for Phase I/II clinical material

The  working  cell  banks  and  individual  INKmune  product  to  be  used  in  the  patients  for  the  clinical  trial  have  been  produced  at  the  Royal  Free
Hospital in the CCGTT to full cGMP (MHRA MIA(IMP)11149). All manufacturing has been under the direction of Professor Mark Lowdell. The Company
can  produce  enough  INKmune  to  complete  both  Phase  I  clinical  trials  in  women  with  ovarian  cancer  and  in  patients  with  high-risk  MDS.  We  have
validated storage of INKmune for up to 12 months in vapor phase nitrogen and have a fully scalable, closed system manufacturing process which can
produce up to 6 patient doses per week during phase I and II trials. At intermediate scale we can manufacture 40 doses per week in a single 80 liter
bioreactor. Importantly, we have validated the storage of INKmune at -80oC for up to three months which greatly facilitates the delivery and local storage
of the drug for clinical trials and post commercialization. In contrast, as far as we know all other NK cell therapies and T cell therapies require complex
shipping of drug products in vapor phase nitrogen below -150oC and specialized arrangements for ongoing storage at the clinical sites. We may need
additional INKmune for future clinical trials.

INKmune Biomarker Development Program

We  have  discovered  two  biomarker  strategies  that  we  believe  can  be  used  to  demonstrate:  i)  who  should  receive  INKmune  therapy;  ii)  if  the
INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovarian cancer and high-
risk MDS, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assay systems
with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of the clinical programs
to  multiple  sites.  We  anticipate  that,  in  the  future,  the  biomarker  program  may  be  a  surrogate  marker  for  both  clinical  effectiveness  and  marketing
purposes.

Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune Development

The  INKmune  Phase  I  studies  in  high-risk  MDS  and  ovarian  cancer  will  be  performed  in  the  UK.  We  met  with  the  Medicines  and  Healthcare
Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a Scientific Advice Meetings in preparation for submitting the CTA for each
program.  The  purpose  of  the  meeting  was  to  explain  to  the  MHRA  our  manufacturing  process  and  clinical  plan  for  the  development  of  INKmune  in  a
Phase I relapse/refractory ovarian cancer and high risk MDS respectively.

INKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I Study in patients with ovarian cancer

Pending  the  evolution  of  the  COVID-19  pandemic  in  2021,  we  plan  to  initiate  an  open  label  Phase  I  cancer  study  in  patients  with  ovarian
carcinoma.  Patients  will  be  enrolled  who  have  a  low  burden  of  relapse  refractory  disease  and  have  peripheral  blood  or  ascites  NK  cells  which  can
respond to INKmune in a laboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 was for
a two-step Phase I/II study but this has been modified to an classic Phase I study followed by a randomized phase II. At present we anticipate the Phase I
to be performed under the modified CTA at a single UK site, Sheffield University Hospital. We expect to initiate trial by the third quarter of 2021. In the
Phase  I  trial,  women  with  relapse  refractory  ovarian  cancer  will  be  treated  with  INKmune,  given  as  an  intra-peritoneal  infusion  through  an  indwelling
peritoneal  catheter  in  a  traditional  open  label  study  to  demonstrate  safety  and  determine  the  dose  of  INKmune  to  be  carried  into  the  larger  Phase  II
portion of the study. Based on pre-clinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavity
that  response  to  INKmune  to  kill  SKOV3,  an  NK-resistant  ovarian  cell  line,  we  believe  intra-peritoneal  delivery  of  INKmune  will  be  therapeutically
effective. Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haplo-identical TpNK product in
patients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection
2015)  and  (Biol  Blood  Marrow  Transplant.  2018  Mar  26.  pii:  S1083-8791(18)30132-0.  doi:  10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.).  In  summary,  the  studies
showed  that  TpNK  therapy,  when  delivered  by  intravenous  infusion  after  conditioning  therapy,  was  effective  in  providing  prolong  remissions  with  a
toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatment strategy is used for the
delivery of TALL-104 cells. TALL-104 is a replication incompetent human MHC non-restricted cytotoxic T-cell leukemic cell line that has been extensively
studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, has used TALL-104 in a Phase II clinical trial to
treat  women  with  ovarian  cancer  (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL-104.html).  In  that  study,  TALL-104  is  delivered  via  intraperitoneal
infusion.  Although  the  efficacy  of  the  therapy  is  not  yet  known,  the  therapy  is  well  tolerated  with  toxicities  mainly  related  to  the  infusion  catheter,  not
related to the TALL-104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trial are safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the
Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy end-points to be studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow
cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killing of SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor
burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Once safety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women
treated with INKmune will be compared to a group of control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I
portion of the trial, but this number can increase by as many as 18.

INKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I Study in patients with high-risk MDS

During 2021, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I cancer study in patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (“MDS”). Patients will be
enrolled who have a low burden of disease after completion of conventional therapy and have peripheral blood NK cells which can respond to INKmune
in  a  laboratory  test  of  NK  function.  At  present  we  anticipate  the  Phase  I  to  be  performed  at  a  single  UK  site,  University  Hospital  Southampton.  A  UK
contract research organization has been appointed and we expect to initiate trial by the third quarter of 2021. In the Phase I trial, patients with detectable
residual disease in bone marrow and/or peripheral blood (<15% blasts by conventional tests) will be treated with intravenous infusions of INKmune and
monitored for changes in peripheral blood NK activation, NK function and changes in residual blast counts in blood and bone marrow. We and others
have previously shown that MDS patients with inadequate NK function have statistically significantly poorer prognosis than matched patients with normal
levels of NK function (Tsirogianni et al 2019) and we have shown in laboratory experiments that the functional activity of NK cells from MDS patients can
be enhanced by exposure to INKmune. Moreover, INKmune-primed NK cells are not inhibited by the hypoxic conditions of the diseased bone marrow
microenvironment. Because both INKmune programs are being run in the UK, delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic may delay initiation of the clinical
trial.

INKmune Registration Studies and/or Partnering

After completion of proof-of-concept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as a treatment for
ovarian carcinoma indication and/or high risk MDS. Other solid cancers are of interest including nasopharyngeal cancer (“NPC”) which is a known target
for NK cells and an important unmet clinical need in emerging markets such as mainland China. We expect to have biopharma partners participate in this
decision.  We  may  also  seek  to  be  acquired  at  this  stage  or  partner  INKmune.  Although  our  development  strategy  is  focused  on  North  America  and
Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, but will wait for partners to help with
the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.

Importantly, we have published data demonstrating INKmune efficacy at priming allogeneic NK cells ex-vivo (described above) and this includes
priming  of  NK  cells  differentiated  from  cord-blood  derived  hematopoietic  stem  cells  (Domogala  et  al Cytotherapy 2017:  19:710-720).  Numerous
companies are developing therapeutic strategies using cord blood derived NK cell products and one or more may wish to partner with us to potentiate
their product by co-incubation or co-administration with INKmune.

18

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
INKmune Regulatory Strategy

INKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by well-designed clinical trials that show a
meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients with cancer where one
group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA on September 12, 2017 on the design
clinical trial for ovarian cancer. And have used that advice to plan both current phase I trials. We plan to perform the Phase I trials with INKmune in the
United Kingdom under two clinical trials authorizations (“CTA”) – one for each indication. If either phase I elicits “positive” data we plan to open one or
more Phase II programs to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. We will meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trials.
Because  there  are  no  therapies  similar  to  INKmune  approved  in  any  market,  we  plan  to  take  advantage  of  the  regulatory  opportunities  afforded  to
therapies  that  treat  small  markets  with  a  high  unmet  need.  In  the  U.S.,  this  includes  Orphan  Drug  Designation  and  expedited  programs  for  approval
including  Accelerated  Approval,  Breakthrough  Therapy  Designation,  Fast  Track  Designation,  and  priority  review  (see  “Government  Regulation”).  We
cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with
the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).

Emerging Market Opportunity

The  cancer  therapy  market  is  large,  diverse  and  competitive.  Although  the  concept  of  immunotherapy  with  monoclonal  antibodies  has  been
around  for  more  than  20  years,  the  concept  that  patient  derived  immunosuppressive  factors  was  a  barrier  to  effective  cancer  treatment  was  recently
recognized  and  had  its  first  therapy  approved  just  four  years  ago  (ipilimumab,  Yervoy,  BMS,  March  2011).  Since  then,  five  additional  “check  point”
inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumor-based immunosuppression focus is
on  the  adaptive  immune  system  (“T-cells”).  The  role  of,  and  the  importance  of  manipulating  the  innate  immune  system  has  more  recently  become  a
target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in both tumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment
(killing). MDSCs are part of the innate immune system that only appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with
cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because T-cell focused strategies do not have an
effect  on  the  innate  immune  system,  patient’s  receiving  such  treatments  may  fail  to  recruit  half  of  the  patient’s  immune  system,  the  innate  immune
system, to attack the patient’s cancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s
adaptive  and  innate  immune  system.  Normalizing  the  response  of  the  innate  immune  system  requires  eliminating  the  dysregulated  innate  immune
response  that  decreases  the  patient’s  ability  to  see  and  attack  the  cancer  as  well  as  mechanisms  the  protect  the  cancer  from  immunologic  attack
(effector and protector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation and
function of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk, recruit the
adaptive immune system to the fight.

Challenges in the Market for Our Product Candidates

The market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated, and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older, larger,
better  financed  and  have  greater  experience.  There  are  two  types  of  drug  companies  –  development  companies  and  commercial  companies.
Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proof-of-concept. Once proof-of-concept has been achieved, if the drug provides
clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical development and markets the product. We
are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedside to demonstrate proof-of-concept. The
goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets for potential partners/acquirers.

19

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
According to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%. Recently, the
market is biased towards T cell-based immunotherapies including bi-specific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CAR-T cell-based therapies.
There  are  substantial  numbers  of  clinical  trials  that  are  focused  on  the  adaptive  immune  system  versus  clinical  trials  that  are  focused  on  the  innate
immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cell-based therapeutic strategies. The need to
educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognition that therapies targeting MDSC are needed
to  improve  the  results  of  immunotherapies.  Investors  and  potential  partners  are  only  now  learning  about  MDSC.  We  will  be  responsible  for  educating
them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to the oncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and
partners  about  new  therapeutic  opportunities  is  an  easier  task  than  trying  to  differentiate  our  company  from  the  many  other  cancer  immunotherapy
companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentation and investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical,
biopharma and investor community on the value of these novel therapeutic approaches.

DN-TNF Competition

To  our  knowledge,  there  are  no  other  innate  immune  system  check-point  inhibitors  in  development  that  combine  the  characteristics  of
neutralizing  soluble  TNF,  decreasing  the  population  and  function  of  MDSC  while  promoting  NK/DC  crosstalk  that  expands,  decreases  expression  of
MUC4  and  recruits  the  adaptive  immune  response  to  attack  the  patient’s  tumor.  Lilly  is  developing  LY3022855,  a  human  IgG1  monoclonal  antibody
designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibit MDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the
tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., in collaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS-8273a, a TRIAL-R2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1
inhibitor to decrease the number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX-104, an orally bioavailable small molecule
immunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX-104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX-682. SX-682 is a small-
molecule dual-inhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapy-resistance, and myeloid cell suppression of
cancer  surveillance  by  the  adaptive  immune  system.  By  blocking  the  CXCR1/2  pathway,  SX-682  may  prevent  recruitment  of  MDSC  to  the  tumor
microenvironment.  The  University  of  Minnesota  has  a  trivalent  antibody  program  aimed  at  treating  patients  with  advanced  hematologic  malignancies.
This  CD16/IL-15/CD33  (161533)  Tri-Specific  Killer  Engagers  (TriKes)  product  may  target  CD33+  MDSC.  Siamab  Therapeutics  is  developing  an  anti-
sialyl-Tn  monoclonal  antibody  that  targets  MDSC  in  some  tumor  types.  Clathera  Biosciences,  in  collaboration  with  Incyte,  a  US  based  biotech,  is
developing CB-1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinical trial is open that combines CB-1158 with nivolumab, an
anti-PD1  CPI  marketed  by  Bristol  Myers  Squib.  Reata  Pharmaceuticals  is  testing  omaveloxolone  (RTA  408)  in  the  phase  Ib/II  REVEAL  trial  in
combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved
non-selective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab and others, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer
because  of  their  mechanism  of  action  and  safety  side  effects.  Non-  selective  TNF  inhibitors  block  the  function  of  both  sTNF  and  tmTNF.  Blockade  of
tmTNF  is  immunosuppressive  increasing  the  risk  of  infection  and  cancer  in  patients.  This  is  shown  in  Figure  3  below  where  maintaining  function  to
tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic means results in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knock-out of both
sTNF and tmTNF results in death from infection.

INKmune Competition

Our  industry  is  highly  competitive  and  subject  to  rapid  and  significant  technological  change.  Our  potential  competitors  include  large
pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, government agencies and
research  institutions.  We  believe  that  key  competitive  factors  that  will  affect  the  development  and  commercial  success  of  our  product  candidates  are
efficacy,  safety,  tolerability,  reliability,  price,  and  reimbursement  level.  Many  of  our  potential  competitors,  including  many  of  the  organizations  named
below,  have  substantially  greater  financial,  technical,  and  human  resources  than  we  do  and  significantly  greater  experience  in  the  discovery  and
development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and the commercialization of those products. Accordingly,
our  competitors  may  be  more  successful  than  us  in  obtaining  FDA  approval  for  and  achieving  widespread  market  acceptance  of  their  drugs.  Our
competitors’  drugs  may  be  more  effective,  or  more  effectively  marketed  and  sold,  than  any  drug  we  may  commercialize  and  may  render  our  product
candidates  obsolete  or  non-competitive  before  we  can  recover  the  expenses  of  developing  and  commercializing  any  of  our  product  candidates.  We
anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugs enter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the
development of new treatment methods for the conditions we are targeting could render our drugs non-competitive or obsolete.

INKmune  is  an  immunotherapy  that  harnesses  the  biology  of  NK  cells  for  the  treatment  of  cancer.  There  is  a  long  list  of  immunotherapy
strategies  for  the  treatment  of  cancer  and  the  immunotherapy  for  cancer  market  is  growing  rapidly.  There  are  at  least  three  ways  to  classify
immunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:

1. Companies in the NK cell therapy business;

2. Companies in the personalized immune-oncology business; and

3. Companies in the precision immuno-oncology business.

21

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of public companies in the NK cell therapy
business  such  as  NantKwest,  Nkarta,  Fate  Therapeutics  and  Glycostem.  These  companies  are  developing  products  that  involve  replacing  or
supplementing  NK  cells  of  the  patient  for  the  treatment  cancer.  Their  product  requires  extensive  ex-vivo  cell  manipulations  which,  with  respect  to
NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immuno-oncology business
with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CAR-T cell therapies which are a patient specific ex-vivo gene therapy
approach  to  a  single  disease  (for  example:  pediatric  ALL).  CAR-T  therapy  has  become  wildly  popular  of  late  and  includes  many  private  companies,
newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies such as Novartis and Gilead. For many
of  the  companies,  CAR-T  cell  therapies  is  their  only  business.  For  the  latter  two,  CAR-T  cell  therapies  is  a  newly  in-licensed  program  with  marketing
authorization  in  the  US.  Finally,  the  precision  immune-oncology  category  also  includes  companies  with  anti-cancer  antibody  products  and  the  newer
“check-point” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to the innate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were
the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of well-known biopharma companies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of
these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breast cancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bi-specific and tri-
specific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancer with activated T-cells of the adaptive immune system. Check-point inhibitors are currently the most
rapidly  expanding  product  category  in  immuno-oncology.  These  CTLA-4  (ipilimumab)  and  PD-1  inhibitors  (pembrolizumab  and  nivolumab)  specifically
block a mechanism that shields cancers from T-cell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and
nivolumab). There are many others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.

There  are  several  FDA  approved  drugs  that  improve  the  ability  of  the  innate  immune  system  (NK-cells)  to  treat  cancer  including  mono-clonal
antibody  therapies  (for  example:  Rituximab®;  Avastin®  and  Herceptin®  marketed  by  Roche/Genentech);  and  “check-point”  inhibitors  (Yervoy®  and
Opdivo®,  BMS,  Keytruda®,  Merck  and  others).  There  is  a  large  amount  of  development  activity  in  the  immune  checkpoint  inhibitor  field  from  both
pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis and Amgen and many start-ups, small companies
and  university  spin-offs  which  have  emerged  in  the  past  two  years.  Examples  (in  alphabetical  order)  include  Agenus,  Alligator  Bioscience,  Ambrx,
AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, Checkpoint Therapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics,
Genmab,  GITR,  ImmuNext,  IOmet  Pharma,  iTeos  Therapeutics,  Jounce  Therapeutics,  KAHR  Medical,  Multimeric  Biotherapeutics,  Nativis,  Orega
Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed, Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and
ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with poly-specific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes
both  private  and  public  companies  (Amgen,  Xencor,  F-Star,  Merus  and  many  others).  Finally,  two  CAR-T  cell  therapies  were  just  approved  for  the
treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) and Yescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immune-oncology
space.

To  our  knowledge,  there  are  no  innate  immune  check-point  inhibitors  in  development  that  have  the  unique  characteristics  of  INB03  that
neutralize  sTNF  to:  i)  decreases  the  proliferation  of  MDSC;  ii)  decreasing  local  and  systemic  immunosuppression  caused  by  MDSC  by  stopping
production of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC cross-talk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.

Intellectual Property

We seek to protect our therapeutic programs by continuously developing patent properties covering novel compositions, formulations, purpose-
limited compositions, combination treatments, methods of medical treatment, and other inventions in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the
“USPTO”), the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”), and in patent offices for various foreign
jurisdictions. While each invention is unique and territories for protection are decided on a case by case basis, we generally pursue patents in Australia,
Canada,  Europe,  Japan,  and  the  United  States,  and  sometimes  in  Brazil,  China  and/or  Korea.  The  following  sections  and  corresponding  tables
summarize,  for  each  of  our  current  therapeutic  programs,  our  pending  and  granted  patent  positions,  to  the  extent  publicly  available,  as  of  the  time  of

INKmune (Oncology)

The INKmune program is directed to compositions and methods of treating cancer. INKmune comprises cells and/or membrane portions of cells
derived from a cancer cell line expressing a unique biological signature (that is often downregulated in many cancers), which cells/membrane portions
are  inactivated  to  prevent  proliferation,  and  which  are  administered  to  a  patient.  Once  administered,  the  inactivated  cells/membranes  (INKmune)  are
presented in vivo to the patient’s own resting NK cells, thereby providing the unique biological signature, and resulting in what we call “NK cell priming,”
that is, the change of a resting NK cell to a non-naturally occurring state, or “primed NK cell,” wherein the primed NK cell has received the signals often
downregulated by cancer cells. Now having the often-downregulated signals, a primed NK cell can subsequently contact, adhere and commence killing
of the patient’s cancer cells. The following table summarizes current IP covering INKmune:

temporary in nature, and does not mature into a valid enforceable patent by itself, but instead serves to establish a chain of priority rights for
subsequently filed patent applications.

“TBD” when used above with respect to pending patent applications which are undergoing ordinary patent prosecution and may eventually

International PCT patent applications cover all 152 nations which are signatories of the PCT. However, our IP strategy generally recognizes the
United  States,  United  Kingdom,  European  Union,  Canada,  Japan,  Australia  and  China  as  targets  for  extending  patent  protection  under  the  PCT.
Decisions  regarding  which  countries  to  extend  patent  coverage  under  the  PCT  is  taken  on  a  case  by  case  basis,  subject  to  normal  business
considerations such as value and return on investment.

Each of the above-identified patents and patent applications is subject to change based on strategic patent portfolio building decisions, which
may include refiling and reissue, certain abandonments, including those in favor of continuing patent applications, maturations from provisional to non-
provisional filings, and other regular patent prosecution activities.

situation within 60 days of written notice by Immune Ventures, then Immune Ventures may provide notice to terminate the license or convert it to a non-
exclusive license.

University of Pittsburg License Agreement

On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures related to intellectual property
licensed  from  the  University  of  Pittsburgh.  Pursuant  to  the  Assignment  and  Assumption  Agreement  (the  “Assignment  Agreement”),  Immune  Ventures

Xencor License Agreement

On  October  3,  2017,  the  Company  entered  into  a  license  agreement  with  Xencor,  Inc.  (“Xencor”),  which  has  discovered  and  developed  a
proprietary biological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor (the “Xencor Agreement”). Pursuant to the Xencor Agreement, Xencor granted
the  Company  an  exclusive  worldwide,  royalty-bearing  license  in  licensed  patent  rights,  licensed  know-how  and  licensed  materials  (as  defined  in  the
Xencor  Agreement)  to  make,  develop,  use,  sell  and  import  any  pharmaceutical  product  that  comprises,  contains,  or  incorporates  Xencor’s  proprietary
protein  known  as  “XPro1595”  that  inhibits  soluble  tumor  necrosis  factor  (or  all  modifications,  formulations  and  variants  of  the  licensed  protein  that
specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor) alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. In connection
with  the  Xencor  Agreement,  we  paid  Xencor  a  one-time  non-creditable  and  non-refundable  fee  of  $100,000  and  agreed  to  issue  Xencor  1,585,000
shares of our common stock. We also issued warrants to Xencor which are discussed below.

We also agreed to pay Xencor a royalty of 5% on net sales of all Licensed Products in a given calendar year, which are payable on a country-by-
country and licensed product by licensed product basis until the date that is the later of (a) the expiration of the last to expire valid claim covering any
pharmaceutical product that contains, comprises, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as XPro1595 alone or in combination with one or
more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. (“Licensed Product”) in such country or (b) ten years following the first sale to a third party of the
licensed product in such country. Net Sales with respect to any Licensed Product is the gross amounts invoiced by us for sales of the Licensed Products
less deductions actually incurred.

Under  the  Xencor  Agreement,  we  also  agreed  to  pay  Xencor  a  percentage  of  any  sublicensing  revenue  that  it  receives  equal  to  (i)  60%  of
sublicensing revenue received in respect of any sublicense granted prior to initiation of a Phase 1 Clinical Trial of a Licensed Product in the applications
for the treatment of disease in humans (the “Field”); (ii) 30% of Sublicensing Revenue received in respect of any sublicense granted on or after initiation
of a Phase 1 Clinical Trial of a Licensed Product in the Field and prior to initiation of a Phase 2 Clinical Trial of a Licensed Product in the Field; (iii) 15% of
Sublicensing Revenue received in respect of any sublicense granted on or after initiation of a Phase 2 Clinical Trial of a Licensed Product in the Field
and  prior  to  initiation  of  a  Phase  3  Clinical  Trial  of  a  Licensed  Product  in  the  Field;  (iv)  10%  of  Sublicensing  Revenue  received  in  respect  of  any
sublicense granted on or after initiation of a Phase 3 Clinical Trial of a Licensed Product in the Field and prior filing of the first NDA application for any
Licensed Product in the Field; and (v) 5% of Sublicensing Revenue received in respect of any sublicense granted on or after the approval of the first NDA
application for any Licensed Product in the Field. For clarity, initiation of a clinical trial shall mean dosing of a first patient in said clinical trial.

Licensed  Product  in  the  Field.  Either  party  may  terminate  the  Xencor  Agreement  upon  written  notice  to  the  other  party  upon  or  after  the  insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of such other party or the making or seeking to make or arrange an assignment for the benefit of creditors of such
other  party  or  the  initiation  of  proceedings  in  voluntary  or  involuntary  bankruptcy  which  proceeding  or  action  remains  undismissed  or  unstayed  for  a
period of more than 60 days.

In connection with the Xencor Agreement, we entered into a stock issuance agreement with Xencor pursuant to which it agreed to issue Xencor
1,585,000 shares of its common stock and fully vested warrants to purchase an additional number of shares of common stock equal to 10% our the fully
diluted  company  shares  immediately  following  such  purchase.  In  August  2018,  we  entered  into  a  First  Amendment  to  Stock  Issuance  Agreement.
Pursuant to the amendment, the purchase price for the additional shares may only be paid by cash.

University College London License Agreement – MSC

On July 19, 2019, the Company entered into license agreement with UCL Business PLC (“UCLB”) with a ten-year term. Pursuant to the license
agreement,  the  Company  acquired  an  exclusive  license  (and  a  right  to  sub-license)  to  the  technology  and  know-how  relating  to  an  isolation  and
commercial scale expansion methodology of GMP grade human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (“MSC”).

In exchange for the license agreement, the Company paid UCLB an initial license fee of approximately $10,000 and shall pay annual licensing
fees of approximately $13,000 per year for the remaining term of the agreement beginning in July 2020. The Company will pay UCLB a royalty of 3-3.5%
of the net sales value (as defined in the agreement) of all licensed products sold or used by the Company. As of December 31, 2020, no amounts are
owed to UCLB pursuant to this license agreement. In the event the Company sub-licenses the technology and know-how, the Company will pay UCLB a
royalty  of  12  percent  of  the  consideration  (cash  or  non-cash)  received  by  the  Company  in  relation  to  the  development  or  sub-licensing  of  any  of  the
technology and know-how.

INKmune Research and Development

We expect to use third parties to conduct our preclinical and clinical trials under the direct supervision of management.

INKmune Manufacturing

We intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinical testing and
for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Pre-clinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune has been manufactured
under the direction of Mark Lowdell at a licensed Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual
product doses were completed in July 2018. This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate
capital to initiate the high-risk MDS Phase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell
bank. This process takes approximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the high-risk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the
manufacturing to a different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.

Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells

In November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), the oldest and
largest  non-directed  cord  blood  bank  in  the  United  Kingdom  for  the  supply  the  starting  material  for  the  mesenchymal  stem  cells  -  umbilical  cords  not
used  after  cord  blood  harvest.  Mark  Lowdell’s  research  group  developed  and  validated  a  methodology  for  producing  large  numbers  of  clinical-grade
pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliable supply of large quantities of high-
quality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem cell therapies for medicine. Under this agreement
we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinical trials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal
shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (and any intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune
Bio  International  in  exercising  its  rights  under  the  agreement  (“Licensed  Product”))  Immune  Bio  International  receives  pursuant  to  the  agreement.
Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune Bio International shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We
believe we are well positioned to become a preferred manufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC
is  performed  under  the  direction  of  Mark  Lowdell  in  a  licensed  GMP  facility  that  is  contracted  to  the  Company  as  part  of  existing  research  and
development agreements. The starting material for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully
qualified to be used for either research or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as
part of the development process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or development
opportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. The agreement with
AN  terminates  on  November  29,  2027.  AN  may  terminate  the  license  on  written  notice  to  us,  if  a  donor  withdraws  consent  to  the  continued  use  of
umbilical  cord  tissue  samples  that  were  obtained  by  AN.  Additionally,  either  party  may  terminate  the  agreement  on  30  days  prior  written  notice  to  the
other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable) is not remedied within 30 days of
the written request to the other party to do so.

Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy Products

Government Regulation

The  FDA  and  other  federal,  state,  local  and  foreign  regulatory  agencies  impose  substantial  requirements  upon  the  clinical  development,
approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing, and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research and development
activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping, advertising and promotion of our
product  candidates.  The  regulatory  approval  process  is  generally  lengthy  and  expensive,  with  no  guarantee  of  a  positive  result.  Moreover,  failure  to
comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizure of products, injunctive relief including partial or
total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.

Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion, and distribution of drugs in the United States
under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drug product candidates may be
marketed in the United States generally involves the following:

●

●

●

●

●

completion of  extensive  nonclinical  laboratory  tests,  animal  studies  and  formulation  studies,  all  performed  in  accordance  with  the  FDA’s
Good Laboratory Practice regulations;

submission to  the  FDA  of  an  investigational  new  drug  application,  or  IND,  which  must  become  effective  before  human  clinical  trials  may
begin;

for some  products,  performance  of  adequate  and  well-controlled  human  clinical  trials  in  accordance  with  the  FDA’s  regulations, including
Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;

submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;

satisfactory completion  of  an  FDA  preapproval  inspection  of  the  manufacturing  facilities  at  which  the  product  is  produced  to  assess
compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and

●

FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.

The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvals for our

product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.

Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity in animals
and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted as part of an IND to
the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocols for the initial clinical trial or
trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA, unless the FDA, within the 30-day time
period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND and places the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such
cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questions before any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may
be  imposed  at  any  time  before  or  during  studies  due  to  safety  concerns  or  non-compliance  with  regulatory  requirements.  An  independent  institutional
review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing to conduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it
commences  at  that  center.  An  IRB  considers,  among  other  things,  whether  the  risks  to  individuals  participating  in  the  trials  are  minimized  and  are
reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. The IRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until
completed.

The FDA offers several regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in the indications
on  which  we  are  focusing  our  efforts.  These  include  accelerated  approval  under  Subpart  H  of  the  agency’s  NDA  approval  regulations,  fast  track  drug
development procedures and priority review.

We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union and other
jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, is generally a disease
or  condition  that  affects  no  more  than  200,000  individuals.  In  the  European  Union,  orphan  drug  designation  can  be  granted  if:  the  disease  is  life
threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; without incentive it is unlikely that the drug
would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method of treatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new
drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product that has an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first
regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, the product is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory
authority may not approve any other applications to market the same drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven
years  in  the  United  States  and  10  years  in  the  European  Union  Orphan  drug  designation  does  not  prevent  competitors  from  developing  or  marketing
different drugs for the same indication or the same drug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA.
After  orphan  drug  designation  is  granted,  the  identity  of  the  therapeutic  agent  and  its  potential  orphan  use  are  publicly  disclosed.  Orphan  drug
designation  does  not  convey  an  advantage  in,  or  shorten  the  duration  of,  the  review  and  approval  process.  However,  this  designation  provides  an
exemption  from  marketing  and  authorization  (NDA)  fees.  We  plan  to  follow  a  similar  path  with  INB03,  although  the  precise  indication  cannot  be
determined until we are farther along in the development process.

Clinical Trials

Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1 clinical trials, the

product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretion and pharmacodynamics.

Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate for specific,

targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safety risks.

Phase  3  clinical  trials  are  undertaken  to  evaluate  clinical  efficacy  and  to  test  for  safety  in  an  expanded  patient  population  at  geographically
dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations for the product candidate and disease,
but  sometimes  can  include  several  thousand  patients.  Phase  3  clinical  trials  are  intended  to  establish  the  overall  risk-benefit  ratio  of  the  product
candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.

Clinical  trials  involve  the  administration  of  the  product  candidate  to  human  subjects  under  the  supervision  of  qualified  medical  investigators
according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusion criteria, and the parameters to
be  used  to  monitor  participant  safety.  Regulatory  procedures  differ  in  each  country  we  will  be  working  in.,  For  example,  in  the  US,  each  protocol  is
submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinical trial. The US is not the only place to perform
clinical  trials.  Most  countries  have  systems  in  place  to  allow  academics  and  companies  to  sponsor  clinical  trials  of  novel  therapies  in  patients.  For
financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of our programs in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be
included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japan and other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development
program  in  the  future.  The  first  clinical  trial  with  INKmune  will  be  initiated  in  the  United  Kingdom.  In  the  United  Kingdom,  the  regulatory  submission  is
made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This is a multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in
September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial in women with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes
and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gave recommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate
the clinical trial. We received CTA approval from the MHRA for an INKmune trial in ovarian cancer on December 18, 2018. The approval allows for the
execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the 6 patients needed for the Phase
I  portion  of  the  trial.  The  patients  will  be  treated  at  the  Phase  I  unit  a  university  hospital.  We  expect  all  of  the  Phase  I  sites  to  be  in  London,  United
Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial in early 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3
other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30 patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of
the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additional clinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at
this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sites in the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with
the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can be opened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1
study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsed refractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our pre-clinical data suggests INKmune may
have advantages over other immunotherapies in the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure
disease burden – CA125. This allows the Company to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We
believe that intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune is a low-risk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their
disease  concentrated  in  the  peritoneal  cavity  further  supporting  the  use  of  intra-peritoneal  delivery.  Finally,  relapsed  refractory  ovarian  cancer  is  an
Orphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune. INB03 will follow a similar development strategy, but will
use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification (“CTN”) scheme authorized
by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and the MHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed
an  Australian  Clinical  Trial  Notification,  or  CTN,  for  INB03  and  XPro1595  during  the  second  quarter  of  2018  and  2019  respectively.  Applications  were
accepted in May 2018 and 2019 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trials in cancer and Alzheimer’s disease respectively. We have completed the oncology
Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solid tumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood.

The  Phase  I  trial  has  been  completed  and  provided  evidence  of  safety  and  a  pharmacodynamic  drug  affect,  decrease  of  inflammatory
biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial in cancer. The Phase II clinical trial that will combine INB03 with approved second
line therapy in patients with brain metastasis in women with Her2+ breast cancer. This is a combination trial where the addition of INB03 to approved
second  line  therapy  may  provide  a  therapeutic  alternative  in  a  disease  without  any  drugs  approved.  The  Company  has  not  lost  interest  in  combining
INB03 with CPI, but competition for patients is fierce in this arena. Our plan is to pursue treatment of tumors that express MUC4 as our lead indication.
Tumors that express MUC4 are resistant to all forms of immunotherapy due to a combination of increased MDSC in the tumor, decreased inflammation in
the tumor (a “cold” tumor) and direct effects of MUC4 and soluble TNF on HER2 function. If combination therapy with INB03 decreases MUC4 expression
and changes the TME to make the “cold” tumor “hot”, then addition of a CPI will be warranted. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target
proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptive immune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to
evade  the  immune  system.  These  drugs  target  PD1,  PDL-1  or  CTLA-4.  As  of  April  2018,  there  are  six  checkpoint  inhibitors  approved  in  the  US
(Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab, Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in
development and will be approved in the coming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected
to be the largest selling class of cancer therapies by 2027. INB03 can impact the cancer market for CPI in two ways; i) increase the number of patients
eligible  for  CPI  by  making  “cold”  tumors  “hot”  and  ii)  reverse  resistance  to  CPI  due  to  immunologic  factors  in  the  TME  such  as  increased  MDSC.
Currently, only 25-30% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of these become refractory after a
period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Experts agree that combination therapy is
needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractory patients. To that end, companies with approved
checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expand market opportunities. The INB03 development program in
cancer is designed to take advantage of our pre-clinical data and the needs to the cancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint
inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial to treat trastuzumab resistant HER2+ expressing cancer is our lead registration strategy for INB03. Current
therapies  for  trastuzumab  resistant  cancers  are  used  on  a  trial  by  error  approach.  Using  MUC4  expression  as  a  biomarker  for  to  predict  trastuzumab
resistance brings a precision medicine approach to this difficult clinical scenario. Addition of INB03 to the treatment regimen for treating HER2+ cancers
may  convert  “cold”  tumors  to  “hot”  tumors  making  the  eligible  for  treatment  with  CPI.  Finally,  the  clinical  development  landscape  for  CPI  combination
therapies  to  treat  CPI  resistant  therapies  is  chaotic.  The  design  and  successful  completion  of  a  Phase  II  trial  is  not  guarantee  of  clinical  relevance  or
commercial viability. There are multiple therapies on the market or in development for the treatment of trastuzumab resistant breast cancer. The most
prominent  of  antibody  conjugates  including  ado-trastuzumab  emtansine  (Kadycycla/T-DM1,  Genentech/Roche)  and  trastuzumab  deruxtecan  (Enhertu,
Daiichi Sankyo). To our knowledge, there are no drugs approved for the treatment of patients with HER2+ brain metastasis. CPI are not active in HER2+
cancers but there is considerable interest in attempting to modify the TME to allow effective use of CPI in patients with advanced disease. Checkpoint
inhibitor  companies  announced  large  partnering  deal  with  companies  producing  checkpoint  inhibitor  potentiators  –  BMS/Nektar;  BMS/IFM  and
Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena will continue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II
program may enroll patients in other countries, including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S.
Food  and  Drug  Administration,  or  FDA.  If  partnering  is  successful  at  any  stage  of  INB03  development,  we  expect  the  partner  to  influence  the
development  and  regulatory  decisions  needed  with  moving  the  drug  to  commercialization.  Finally,  combination  therapy  to  treat  patients  resistant  to
trastuzumab or CPI are not the only oncology application for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immune-oncology therapy to improve efficacy,
safety  or  both.  INB03  can  be  used  as  part  of  combination  therapy  with  immuno-oncology  drugs,  paired  with  tradition  therapies  such  as  cytotoxic
chemotherapy,  kinase  inhibitors,  cell  therapies  or  radiation  therapy.  The  company  is  pursuing  pre-clinical  data  in  some  of  these  areas.  When  and  if
positive  developments  occur,  we  will  communicate  them  to  our  shareholders.  There  are  other  regulatory  venues  that  will  be  important  for  both  our
products  –  the  largest  and  most  important  is  Europe.  In  Europe,  the  European  Medicines  Agencies  (“EMA”)  is  responsible  for  authorization  of  clinical
trials  in  member  states.  In  EU,  there  may  be  a  requirement  to  get  individual  country  authorization  at  the  same  time  as  EMA  authorization.  The  initial
development of INB03. XPro1595 and LIVNate will occur in AUS followed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the
United  Kingdom  followed  by  trials  in  the  US.  XPro1595  is  being  developed  for  the  treatment  of  Alzheimer’s  disease  under  a  Part-the-Cloud  Award
received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trial is being performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer.
Regulatory approval to initiate the trial was received on February 8, 2019. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immune dysregulation may be
the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an anti-inflammatory strategy for the treatment of
Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developing DNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the
TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) in partnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on
microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s disease with a small molecule candidate GC021109. LIVNate is being developed for
the treatment of NASH. The Phase II trial will occur in AUS and NZ, is expected to require fewer than 5 clinical sites to complete enrollment. LIVNate
offers  a  unique  therapeutic  strategy  for  the  treatment  of  NASH  by  targeting  peripheral,  regional  and  local  cycles  of  pathology  that  contribute  to  the
development and progression of the disease. There are many drugs in development for NASH classified in three groups – anti-fibrotic, metabolic and
anti-inflammatory therapies. Drug development for the treatment of NASH has been difficult. In 2019, several programs failed in late stage development
including seldapar (CYMABAY) and selonsertib (GILEAD). Currently, ocaliva by Intercept is expected to be the first drug to receive FDA approval for the
treatment of NASH with by elafibranor by GENFIT is expected to be second. The list of companies with NASH therapies in earlier stages of development
is  long,  including  cenicriviroc  by  ALLERGAN,  MGL-3196  by  MADRIGAL,  VK2809  by  VIKING  Therapeutics  and  belapectin  by  GALECTIN.  To  our
knowledge,  the  only  true  anti-inflammatory  strategy  in  development  is  an  anti-IL11  being  developed  by  Boheringer  Ingelheim  most  likely  as  part  of
combination therapy.

34

 
 
 
Clinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at least annually to
the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials does not assure success
in  later  stage  clinical  trials.  The  FDA,  an  IRB  or  we  may  suspend  a  clinical  trial  at  any  time  on  various  grounds,  including  a  finding  that  the  research
subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.

New Drug Applications

Assuming  successful  completion  of  the  required  clinical  trials,  the  results  of  product  development,  preclinical  studies  and  clinical  trials  are
submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling for the finished
product.  An  NDA  applicant  must  develop  information  about  the  chemistry  and  physical  characteristics  of  the  drug  and  finalize  a  process  for
manufacturing  the  product  in  accordance  with  cGMP.  The  manufacturing  process  must  be  capable  of  consistently  producing  quality  product  within
specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of the final product. In addition,
appropriate  packaging  must  be  selected  and  tested  and  stability  studies  must  be  conducted  to  demonstrate  that  the  product  does  not  undergo
unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of the manufacturing facilities to assess compliance
with cGMP.

The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than accept an NDA
for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts it for filing. After an
application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as to whether the application should
be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisory committee, but it considers them carefully when
making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteria are not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not
always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret the same data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which
may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions that must be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives
regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited to specific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which
could restrict the commercial value of the product. In addition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed
to further assess a drug’s safety and effectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products
which have been commercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or
efficacy questions are raised after the product reaches the market.

Post-Approval Requirements

Any  products  manufactured  or  distributed  by  us  pursuant  to  FDA  approvals  are  subject  to  pervasive  and  continuing  regulation  by  the  FDA,
including, among other things, requirements relating to record-keeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution, and advertising
and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or other labeling claims, are subject
to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketed products and the establishments at which
such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications with clinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their
subcontractors  are  required  to  register  their  establishments  with  the  FDA  and  certain  state  agencies,  and  are  subject  to  periodic  unannounced
inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which impose certain procedural and documentation requirements upon us
and our third-party manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process are strictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may
require  prior  FDA  approval  before  being  implemented.  FDA  regulations  also  require  investigation  and  correction  of  any  deviations  from  cGMP  and
impose  reporting  requirements  upon  us  and  any  third-party  manufacturers  that  we  may  decide  to  use.  Accordingly,  manufacturers  must  continue  to
expend  time,  money  and  effort  in  the  area  of  production  and  quality  control  to  maintain  compliance  with  cGMP  and  other  aspects  of  regulatory
compliance. If our future suppliers are not able to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to
recall a product from distribution, or withdraw approval of the product.

35

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The  FDA  may  withdraw  approval  if  compliance  with  regulatory  requirements  and  standards  is  not  maintained  or  if  problems  occur  after  the
product  reaches  the  market.  Later  discovery  of  previously  unknown  problems  with  a  product,  including  adverse  events  of  unanticipated  severity  or
frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to the approved labeling to add new
safety  information;  imposition  of  post-market  studies  or  clinical  studies  to  assess  new  safety  risks;  or  imposition  of  distribution  restrictions  or  other
restrictions under a REMS program.

The  FDA  closely  regulates  the  marketing,  labeling,  advertising  and  promotion  of  pharmaceutical  products.  A  company  can  make  only  those
claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of the approved label. The
FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of off-label uses. Failure to comply with these requirements
can  result  in,  among  other  things,  adverse  publicity,  warning  letters,  corrective  advertising  and  potential  civil  and  criminal  penalties.  Physicians  may
prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and that differ from those tested by us and approved by the
FDA.  Such  off-label  uses  are  common  across  medical  specialties.  Physicians  may  believe  that  such  off-label  uses  are  the  best  treatment  for  many
patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physicians in their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict
manufacturer’s communications on the subject of off-label use of their products.

Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance Requirements

Our  sales,  promotion,  medical  education,  clinical  research  and  other  activities  following  product  approval  will  be  subject  to  regulation  by
numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal Trade Commission, the
Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the civil False
Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal and state laws similar to the foregoing.

The federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation or payment of
remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item or service that would
be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadly defined to include anything of
value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal Anti-Kickback Statute has been interpreted to apply
to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers, purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other.
Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and
safe  harbors  are  drawn  narrowly.  Practices  that  involve  remuneration  that  may  be  alleged  to  be  intended  to  induce  prescribing,  purchases  or
recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do not qualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular
applicable statutory exception or regulatory safe harbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. Instead, the
legality of the arrangement will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts
have  interpreted  the  statute’s  intent  requirement  to  mean  that  if  any  one  purpose  of  an  arrangement  involving  remuneration  is  to  induce  referrals  of
federal  healthcare  covered  business,  the  federal  Anti-Kickback  Statute  has  been  violated.  The  government  has  enforced  the  federal  Anti-Kickback
Statute to reach large settlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians.
Further, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,
the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or
fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs as well as private
payors.

36

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons or entities that,
among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed for payment or approval by
a  federal  health  care  program.  The  FCA  has  been  used  to  prosecute  persons  or  entities  that  “cause”  the  submission  of  claims  for  payment  that  are
inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promoting a product off-label, submitting claims
for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but not medically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be
brought  by  the  Attorney  General  or  as  a  qui  tam  action  by  a  private  individual  in  the  name  of  the  government.  Violations  of  the  FCA  can  result  in
significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using the FCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its
investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies throughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of
products  for  unapproved  uses  and  other  illegal  sales  and  marketing  practices.  The  government  has  obtained  multi-million  and  multibillion  dollar
settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminal convictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found
to  be  in  violation  of  the  FCA  have  been  forced  to  implement  extensive  corrective  action  plans,  and  have  often  become  subject  to  consent  decrees  or
corporate integrity agreements, restricting the manner in which they conduct their business.

The  federal  Health  Insurance  Portability  and  Accountability  Act  of  1996,  or  HIPAA,  created  additional  federal  criminal  statutes  that  prohibit,
among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private
third-party  payors;  knowingly  and  willfully  falsifying,  concealing  or  covering  up  a  material  fact  or  making  any  materially  false,  fictitious  or  fraudulent
statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfully obstructing a criminal investigation of a
healthcare  offense.  Like  the  federal  Anti-Kickback  Statute,  the  Affordable  Care  Act  amended  the  intent  standard  for  certain  healthcare  fraud  statutes
under  HIPAA  such  that  a  person  or  entity  no  longer  needs  to  have  actual  knowledge  of  the  statute  or  specific  intent  to  violate  it  in  order  to  have
committed a violation.

Given  the  significant  size  of  actual  and  potential  settlements,  we  expect  that  the  government  will  continue  to  devote  substantial  resources  to
investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states have similar fraud and abuse
statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items and services reimbursed under Medicaid and
other  state  programs.  Additionally,  to  the  extent  that  our  products,  once  commercialized,  are  sold  in  a  foreign  country,  we  may  be  subject  to  similar
foreign laws.

In  addition,  there  has  been  a  recent  trend  of  increased  federal  and  state  regulation  of  payments  made  to  physicians  and  other  healthcare
providers.  The  Patient  Protection  and  Affordable  Care  Act,  as  amended  by  the  Health  Care  and  Education  Reconciliation  Act,  or  collectively,  the
Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices, biologics and medical supplies
for  which  payment  is  available  under  Medicare,  Medicaid  or  the  Children’s  Health  Insurance  Program,  with  specific  exceptions,  for  payments  or  other
transfers  of  value  made  by  them  to  physicians  and  teaching  hospitals,  as  well  as  ownership  and  investment  interests  held  by  physicians  and  their
immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailed payment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy
of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information may result in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000
per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”), for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that
are  not  timely,  accurately  and  completely  reported  in  an  annual  submission.  Additionally,  entities  that  do  not  comply  with  mandatory  reporting
requirements  may  be  subject  to  a  corporate  integrity  agreement.  Certain  states  also  mandate  implementation  of  commercial  compliance  programs,
impose  restrictions  on  covered  manufacturers’  marketing  practices  and/or  require  the  tracking  and  reporting  of  gifts,  compensation  and  other
remuneration to physicians and other healthcare professionals.

We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our business.
HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementing regulations, imposes
specified  requirements  on  certain  health  care  providers,  plans  and  clearinghouses  (collectively,  “covered  entities”)  and  their  “business  associates,”
relating  to  the  privacy,  security  and  transmission  of  individually  identifiable  health  information.  Among  other  things,  HITECH  makes  HIPAA’s  security
standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agents of covered entities that create, receive, maintain or
transmit  protected  health  information  in  connection  with  providing  a  service  for  or  on  behalf  of  a  covered  entity.  HITECH  also  increased  the  civil  and
criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associates and possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new
authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts to enforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing
federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own laws that govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances,
many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA in significant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.

Coverage and Reimbursement

Sales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided by third-party
payors.  Third-party  payors  include  state  and  federal  government  health  care  programs,  managed  care  providers,  private  health  insurers  and  other
organizations. Although we currently believe that third-party payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for our product candidates, if approved, we
cannot  be  certain  of  this.  Third-party  payors  are  increasingly  challenging  the  price,  examining  the  cost-effectiveness,  and  reducing  reimbursement  for
medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S.
government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementing cost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on
coverage  and  reimbursement  and  requirements  for  substitution  of  generic  products.  Adoption  of  price  controls  and  cost  containment  measures,  and
adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existing controls and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to
conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate the comparative cost-effectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not
be considered cost-effective and thus may not be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and
reimbursement  from  third-party  payors,  as  each  payor  will  make  its  own  determination  as  to  whether  to  cover  a  product  and  at  what  level  of
reimbursement.  Thus,  one  payor’s  decision  to  provide  coverage  and  adequate  reimbursement  for  a  product  does  not  assure  that  another  payor  will
provide coverage or that the reimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply
that an adequate reimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive
and profitable basis.

Healthcare Reform

The United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals to change the
healthcare  system  in  ways  that  could  affect  our  ability  to  sell  our  products  profitably.  Among  policy  makers  and  payors  in  the  United  States  and
elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality
and/or  expanding  access.  In  the  United  States,  the  pharmaceutical  industry  has  been  a  particular  focus  of  these  efforts  and  has  been  significantly
affected by major legislative initiatives.

By  way  of  example,  in  March  2010,  the  Affordable  Care  Act  was  signed  into  law,  intended  to  broaden  access  to  health  insurance,  reduce  or
constrain  the  growth  of  healthcare  spending,  enhance  remedies  against  fraud  and  abuse,  add  new  transparency  requirements  for  the  healthcare  and
health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms. Among the provisions of the
Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:

●

●

●

●

●

a n annual,  nondeductible  fee  on  any  entity  that  manufactures  or  imports  specified  branded  prescription  drugs  and  biologic  agents,
apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;

an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0% of the
average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;

a new methodology by which rebates  owed  by  manufacturers  under  the  Medicaid  Drug  Rebate  Program  are  calculated  for  drugs  that are
inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;

a  new  Medicare  Part  D  coverage  gap  discount  program,  in  which  manufacturers  must  agree  to  offer  50%  point-of-sale  discounts off
negotiated  prices  of  applicable  brand  drugs  to  eligible  beneficiaries  during  their  coverage  gap  period,  as  a  condition for  a  manufacturer’s
outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;

extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaid managed care
organizations;

38

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
●

●

●

expansion of  eligibility  criteria  for  Medicaid  programs  by,  among  other  things,  allowing  states  to  offer  Medicaid  coverage  to  additional
individuals  and  by  adding  new  mandatory  eligibility  categories  for  certain  individuals  with  income  at  or  below  133%  of  the federal  poverty
level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;

expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and

a  new  Patient-Centered  Outcomes  Research  Institute  to  oversee,  identify  priorities  in,  and  conduct  comparative  clinical  effectiveness
research, along with funding for such research.

In  addition,  other  legislative  changes  have  been  proposed  and  adopted  since  the  Affordable  Care  Act  was  enacted.  These  changes  include,
among  others,  the  Budget  Control  Act  of  2011,  which  mandates  aggregate  reductions  to  Medicare  payments  to  providers  of  up  to  2%  per  fiscal  year
effective  April  1,  2013,  and,  due  to  subsequent  legislative  amendments,  will  remain  in  effect  through  2024  unless  additional  Congressional  action  is
taken.  In  January  2013,  President  Obama  signed  into  law  the  American  Taxpayer  Relief  Act  of  2012,  which,  among  other  things,  further  reduced
Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute of limitations period for the government
to  recover  overpayments  to  providers  from  three  to  five  years.  These  new  laws  may  result  in  additional  reductions  in  Medicare  and  other  healthcare
funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, if approved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.

We  expect  that  the  Affordable  Care  Act,  as  well  as  other  healthcare  reform  measures  that  may  be  adopted  in  the  future,  may  result  in  more
rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approved product. Any
reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other government-funded programs may result in a similar reduction in payments from private payors. The
implementation  of  cost  containment  measures  or  other  healthcare  reforms  may  prevent  us  from  being  able  to  generate  revenue,  attain  profitability  or
commercialize our drugs.

Human Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2020, we had 5 full-time employees. We consider the intellectual capital of our employees to be an important driver of our business
and  key  to  our  future  prospects.  Since  the  Company’s  inception  the  Company  has  experienced  no  employee  turnover.  We  monitor  our  compensation
programs closely and provide what we consider to be a very competitive mix of compensation and insurance benefits for all our employees, as well as
participation in our equity programs. None of our employees is subject to a collective bargaining agreement or represented by a trade or labor union. We
consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015. Our principal executive office is located at 1200 Prospect Street,
Suite 525, La Jolla, CA 92037 and our telephone number is (858) 964-3720.

Item 1a. Risk Factors

Summary of Risk Factors

Below is a summary of the principal factors that make an investment in our common stock speculative or risky. This summary does not address all of the
risks that we face. Additional discussion of the risks summarized in this risk factor summary, and other risks that we face, can be found below under the
heading “Risk Factors” and should be carefully considered, together with other information in this Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC, before
making an investment decision regarding our common stock.

● We have incurred significant losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

● We  will  require  additional  capital  to  fund  our  operations  and  if  we  fail  to  obtain  necessary  financing  we  will  not  be  able  to  complete  the

development and commercialization of our product candidates.

● We are significantly dependent on the success of our DN-TNF product platform and Natural Killer Cell Priming Platform (INKmune) and our

product candidates based on these platforms.

● We need to attract and retain highly skilled personnel; we may be unable to effectively manage growth with our limited resources.

● We depend upon our senior management and key consultants and their loss or unavailability could put us at a competitive disadvantage.

●

The biotechnology and immunotherapy industries are characterized by rapid technological developments and a high degree of competition.
We may be unable to compete with more substantial enterprises.

● We can provide no assurance that our clinical product candidates will obtain regulatory approval or that the results of clinical studies will be

favorable.

● Drug discovery and development is a complex, time-consuming and expensive process with a high rate of failure.

● We may face legal claims; legal disputes are expensive and we may not be able to afford the costs.

● We can provide no assurance of the successful and timely development of new products.

● We must comply with significant government regulations.

● We rely upon patents to protect our technology. We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.

●

●

The price of our common stock may be volatile.

The market prices for our common stock may be adversely impacted by future events.

● A limited public trading market may cause volatility in the price of our common stock.

● Our Rights Agreement contains anti-takeover provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control, which may cause our

stock price to decline.

You should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including information in the section
of  this  document  entitled  “Information  Regarding  Forward  Looking  Statements.”  If  any  of  the  following  risks  actually  occur,  the  Company’s  business,

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay, reduce the
scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.

In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and time-consuming research, preclinical
and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us to maintain our current operations for
at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further research and development with respect to our lead
product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business or operations change in a manner that consumes available
resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital will depend on many factors, including:

●

●

●

●

●

successful commercialization of our product candidates;

the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;

costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;

development of marketing and sales capabilities;

payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and

● market acceptance of our products, if any.

To the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution to our shareholders.
In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on such
indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope
of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to
obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or
products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize ourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms
that are less favorable to us than might otherwise be available.

The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs of preclinical studies
and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not be available on favorable terms, if
at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinical trials or obtain approval of any product
candidates  from  the  FDA  and  other  regulatory  authorities.  In  addition,  we  could  be  forced  to  discontinue  product  development,  forego  sales  and
marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources of financing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities,
which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.

We  face  intense  competition  in  the  markets  targeted  by  our  lead  product  candidates.  Many  of  our  competitors  have  substantially  greater
resources  than  we  do,  and  we  expect  that  all  of  our  product  candidates  under  development  will  face  intense  competition  from  existing  or
future drugs.

We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and future drugs marketed by
large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identify drug candidates or develop
products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less than our products, if any.

Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDA approval for our product
candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of non-patent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by the competitor of patents covering its
newly-approved drug product. Periods of non-patent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such as our current product candidates can extend up
to three and one-half years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”

These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new product targets, which would
be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieve revenue and profits.

Competition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.

We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the same indications we are
pursuing  and  that  have  greater  financial  and  other  resources.  Other  companies  may  succeed  in  developing  products  earlier  than  us,  obtaining  FDA
approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates. Research and development by others
may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments or cures superior to any therapy we develop. We
face  competition  from  companies  that  internally  develop  competing  technology  or  acquire  competing  technology  from  universities  and  other  research
institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may develop competitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product
commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in the revenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.

There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or other competing treatments.
Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approval from the FDA. Even if our products
are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be no assurance that physicians and patients will accept
our product(s) as a treatment of choice.

Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risks associated therewith are
numerous  and  significant.  The  effects  of  competition,  intellectual  property  disputes,  market  acceptance,  and  FDA  regulations  preclude  us  from
forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.

If  we  fail  to  protect  our  intellectual  property  rights,  our  ability  to  pursue  the  development  of  our  technologies  and  products  would  be
negatively affected.

Our  success  will  depend,  in  part,  on  our  ability  to  obtain  patents  and  maintain  adequate  protection  of  our  technologies  and  products.  If  we  do  not
adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in direct competition with us
and  erode  our  competitive  advantage.  Some  foreign  countries  lack  rules  and  methods  for  defending  intellectual  property  rights  and  do  not  protect
proprietary  rights  to  the  same  extent  as  the  United  States.  Many  companies  have  had  difficulty  protecting  their  proprietary  rights  in  these  foreign
countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.

We have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However, the patent process
is  subject  to  numerous  risks  and  uncertainties,  and  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  we  will  be  successful  in  protecting  our  products  by  obtaining  and
defending  patents.  These  risks  and  uncertainties  include  the  following:  patents  that  may  be  issued  or  licensed  may  be  challenged,  invalidated,  or
circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which have substantially greater resources than us and
many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or may already have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere
with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in the United States or in international markets; there may be significant
pressure on the United States government and other international governmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the
United  States  for  treatments  that  prove  successful  as  a  matter  of  public  policy  regarding  worldwide  health  concerns;  countries  other  than  the  United
States may have less restrictive patent laws than those upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to
create, develop, and market competing products.

42

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Moreover,  any  patents  issued  to  us  may  not  provide  us  with  meaningful  protection,  or  others  may  challenge,  circumvent  or  narrow  our  patents.  Third
parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design around any patents on products we
develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potential product. While extensions of patent term
due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates can be commercialized, any related patent, even with
an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization, thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.

In  addition,  the  United  States  Patent  and  Trademark  Office  (the  “USPTO”)  and  patent  offices  in  other  jurisdictions  have  often  required  that  patent
applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology-related inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover only the specific innovations
exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus, even if we or our licensors are able to
obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.

Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignment or licenses. We
may  not  be  aware,  however,  of  all  patents,  published  applications  or  published  literature  that  may  affect  our  business  either  by  blocking  our  ability  to
commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, or by covering the same or similar
technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect our ability to market our product candidates.

In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, and security measures to
protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or other proprietary information. If they
do  not  adequately  protect  our  rights,  third  parties  could  use  our  technology,  and  we  could  lose  any  competitive  advantage  we  may  have.  In  addition,
others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets, which could impair any
competitive advantage we may have.

Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is a substantial risk that
such protections will prove inadequate.

We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlying such
licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.

We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to third-party intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business. To this end, we are
dependent  on  our  licenses  with  Xencor,  Inc.,  Immune  Ventures,  LLC  the  University  of  Pittsburgh  and  University  College  London.  Our  success  will
depend  in  part  on  the  ability  of  our  licensors  to  obtain,  maintain  and  enforce  our  licensed  intellectual  property.  Our  licensors  may  not  successfully
prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigation against other companies
that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Without protection for the intellectual property
we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affect our competitive business position and harm our
business  prospects.  If  we  lose  any  of  our  right  to  use  third-party  intellectual  property,  it  could  adversely  affect  our  ability  to  commercialize  our
technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and our business prospects.

43

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We  are  dependent  on  our  licensing  agreement  with  Xencor  and  the  termination  of  this  agreement  could  a  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our
business.

On  October  3,  2017,  the  Company  entered  into  a  license  agreement  with  Xencor,  Inc.,  which  has  discovered  and  developed  a  proprietary  biological
molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusive worldwide, royalty-
bearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed know-how and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and import any pharmaceutical product
that  comprises,  contains,  or  incorporates  Xencor’s  proprietary  protein  known  as  “XPro1595”  that  inhibits  soluble  tumor  necrosis  factor  (or  all
modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor) alone or in combination with one or
more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able to terminate it and as a result of this terminate
our business could be negatively impacted.

Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our INKmune patent from.

On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC (Immune Ventures). The license agreement relates to
our  natural  killer  program,  INKmune.  Immune  Ventures  is  owned  by  our  President  and  a  member  of  our  Board  of  Directors,  David  Moss,  our  Chief
Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer. Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may
be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipated actions that adversely affect us.

We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.

We  are  an  early-stage  company  formed  in  September  2015  and  have  only  a  limited  operating  history.  Therefore,  there  is  limited  historical  financial
information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks, expenses, and
difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additional operating expenses over the
next  several  years  as  our  research,  development,  and  commercial  activities  increase.  The  amount  of  future  losses  and  when,  if  ever,  we  will  achieve
profitability  are  uncertain.  Our  ability  to  generate  revenue  and  achieve  profitability  will  depend  on,  among  other  things,  successful  completion  of  the
preclinical  and  clinical  development  of  our  product  candidate;  obtaining  necessary  regulatory  approvals  from  the  FDA  and  international  regulatory
agencies;  implementing  successful  manufacturing,  sales,  and  marketing  arrangements;  and  raising  sufficient  funds  to  finance  our  activities.  If  we  are
unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.

We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges for us, including:

● Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;

● Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;

● Obtaining regulatory  approval,  as  the  FDA  and  other  regulatory  authorities  have  limited  experience  with  commercial  development  of

immunotherapies for cancer; and

● Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.

Even  if  we  are  able  to  commercialize  any  product  candidate  that  we  develop,  the  product  may  become  subject  to  unfavorable  pricing
regulations, third-party payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.

The  commercial  success  of  our  product  candidates  will  depend  substantially,  both  domestically  and  abroad,  on  the  extent  to  which  the  costs  of  our
product  candidates  will  be  paid  by  health  maintenance,  managed  care,  pharmacy  benefit  and  similar  healthcare  management  organizations,  or
reimbursed  by  government  health  administration  authorities  (such  as  Medicare  and  Medicaid),  private  health  coverage  insurers  and  other  third-party
payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our product candidates.
Even  if  coverage  is  provided,  the  approved  reimbursement  amount  may  not  be  high  enough  to  allow  us  to  establish  and  maintain  pricing  sufficient  to
realize a meaningful return on our investment.

44

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
There  is  significant  uncertainty  related  to  third-party  payor  coverage  and  reimbursement  of  newly  approved  drugs.  Marketing  approvals,  pricing  and
reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the sale price of a drug before it can be
marketed.  In  many  countries,  the  pricing  review  period  begins  after  marketing  or  product  licensing  approval  is  granted.  In  some  non-U.S.  markets,
prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initial approval is granted. As a result, we might obtain
marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to price regulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for
lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we are able to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing
limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in one or more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.

We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.

Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights
of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application for our product candidates. The
patent  positions  of  biotechnology,  biopharmaceutical  and  pharmaceutical  companies  can  be  highly  uncertain  and  involve  complex  legal  and  factual
questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent, that we will develop additional proprietary
products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by any third parties,
that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that third parties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can
be no assurance that others will not independently develop similar products, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are
issued to us, design around the patented products we developed or will develop.

We  may  be  required  to  obtain  licenses  from  third  parties  to  avoid  infringing  patents  or  other  proprietary  rights.  No  assurance  can  be  given  that  any
licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. If we do not obtain such
licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such
licenses could be prohibited.

A  number  of  pharmaceutical,  biopharmaceutical  and  biotechnology  companies  and  research  and  academic  institutions  have  developed  technologies,
filed  patent  applications  or  received  patents  on  various  technologies  that  may  be  related  to  or  affect  our  business.  Some  of  these  technologies,
applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of the patents, if any, that we may be
able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities are issued to other companies, there can be
no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be able to develop or obtain alternative technology. If we
do  not  obtain  such  licenses,  we  could  encounter  delays  in  the  introduction  of  products,  or  could  find  that  the  development,  manufacture  or  sale  of
products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on
patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have such patents declared invalid.

Much  of  our  know-how  and  technology  may  not  be  patentable.  To  protect  our  rights,  we  plan  to  require  employees,  consultants,  advisors  and
collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will provide meaningful protection for
our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure. Further, our business may be adversely
affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no, or only narrow, patent protection.

45

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We are subject to various government regulations.

The  manufacture  and  sale  of  human  therapeutic  products  in  the  U.S.  and  foreign  jurisdictions  are  governed  by  a  variety  of  statutes  and  regulations.
These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review and approval of a submission
containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing the safety and efficacy of the product
for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control of marketing activities, including advertising and
labeling.

The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment of substantial funds prior to
its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and time-consuming, and there can be no assurance that we develop
successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop will prove to be safe and effective in clinical trials
or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be aware of the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties
which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controls our business.

If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.

We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we are seeking to develop and
market  currently  exist  or  are  being  developed.  Competition  from  fully  integrated  pharmaceutical  companies  and  more  established  biotechnology
companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in discovery and
development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to
be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large pharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology
companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that have been approved or are in development and operate large, well-funded discovery
and development programs. Academic institutions, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research,
seek patent protection and establish collaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and
institutions compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face
competition  based  on  product  efficacy  and  safety,  the  timing  and  scope  of  regulatory  approvals,  availability  of  supply,  marketing  and  sales  capability,
reimbursement  coverage,  price  and  patent  position.  There  is  no  assurance  that  our  competitors  will  not  develop  more  effective  or  more  affordable
products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.

Other  companies  may  succeed  in  developing  products  earlier  than  ourselves,  obtaining  FDA  and  European  Medicines  Agency  (“EMA”)  approvals  for
such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose to develop. While we will seek to
expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research and development by others will not render
our  technology  or  products  obsolete  or  non-competitive  or  result  in  treatments  or  cures  superior  to  any  therapy  we  develop,  or  that  any  therapy  we
develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.

We  may  request  priority  review  for  our  product  candidate  in  the  future.  The  FDA  may  not  grant  priority  review  for  our  product  candidate.
Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review or approval
process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.

We  may  be  eligible  for  priority  review  designation  for  our  product  candidate  if  the  FDA  determines  such  product  candidate  offers  major  advances  in
treatment  or  provides  a  treatment  where  no  adequate  therapy  exists.  A  priority  review  designation  means  that  the  goal  for  the  FDA  to  review  an
application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect to whether or not to grant
priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for such designation or status, the FDA may
decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products, our product candidate, should we determine to
seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our product candidate is designated for priority review, such a designation
does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarily confer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional
FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does not guarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.

46

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We  believe  we  may  in  some  instances  be  able  to  secure  approval  from  the  FDA  or  comparable  non-U.S.  regulatory  authorities  to  use
accelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studies or
clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessary marketing
approvals.

We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approval provisions in the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the  FDA  may  grant  accelerated  approval  to  a  product  designed  to
treat a serious or life-threatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over available therapies upon a determination that the product
has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical
benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of a given disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the
purposes  of  accelerated  approval,  a  surrogate  endpoint  is  a  marker,  such  as  a  laboratory  measurement,  radiographic  image,  physical  sign,  or  other
measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measure of clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that
can  be  measured  earlier  than  an  effect  on  irreversible  morbidity  or  mortality  that  is  reasonably  likely  to  predict  an  effect  on  irreversible  morbidity  or
mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approval pathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy
may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is a clinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated
approval is usually contingent on the sponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional post-approval confirmatory studies to verify and
describe the drug’s clinical benefit. If such post-approval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.

Prior  to  seeking  such  accelerated  approval,  we  will  seek  feedback  from  the  FDA  and  will  otherwise  evaluate  our  ability  to  seek  and  receive  such
accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide to pursue or submit a New
Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval. Similarly, there can be no assurance
that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or
approval,  even  if  we  initially  decide  to  do  so.  Furthermore,  if  we  decide  to  submit  an  application  for  accelerated  approval  or  under  another  expedited
regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurance that such submission or application will be accepted or that
any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, or at all. The FDA or other non-U.S. authorities could also require us to
conduct further studies prior to considering our application or granting approval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of
expedited development, review or approval for our product candidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate,
could increase the cost of development of such product candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.

Clinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs or experience
delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.

Our product candidates are either in early clinical development or have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of
failure of our product candidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive
regulatory approval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinical
development  and  then  conduct  extensive  clinical  trials  to  demonstrate  the  safety  and  efficacy  of  our  product  candidate  in  humans.  Clinical  testing  is
expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or more clinical trials can
occur  at  any  stage  of  testing.  The  clinical  development  of  our  product  candidates  is  susceptible  to  the  risk  of  failure  inherent  at  any  stage  of  drug
development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, the occurrence of severe or medically or
commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatory requirements and determination by the FDA or any
comparable non-U.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for its intended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate
has  a  beneficial  effect,  that  effect  will  not  be  detected  during  clinical  evaluation  as  a  result  of  one  or  more  of  a  variety  of  factors,  including  the  size,
duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials. Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an
apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than the actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect
toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates, or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is
not in fact the case.

47

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim results of a clinical trial
do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have suffered significant setbacks in late-
stage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will not face additional setbacks.

The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of a clinical trial may not
become  apparent  until  the  clinical  trial  is  well  advanced  or  completed.  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 believe that the results of clinical trials for our product candidate
warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities may disagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product
candidate.

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  and  the  rate  of  dropout  among  clinical  trial  participants.  Any  clinical  trials  that  we  may  conduct  may  not
demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.

If  clinical  trials  of  our  product  candidates  fail  to  demonstrate  safety  and  efficacy  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  FDA  and  comparable  non-U.S.
regulators,  we  may  incur  additional  costs  or  experience  delays  in  completing,  or  ultimately  be  unable  to  complete,  the  development  and
commercialization of our product candidates.

We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketing approval from the
FDA.  Comparable  non-U.S.  regulatory  authorities,  such  as  the  EMA,  impose  similar  restrictions.  We  may  never  receive  such  approvals.  We  must
complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans before we will be
able to obtain these approvals.

Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as to outcome. We have not
previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities for any product candidate.

Any inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our ability to generate revenues
from  product  sales,  regulatory  and  commercialization  milestones  and  royalties.  In  addition,  if  (1)  we  are  required  to  conduct  additional  clinical  trials  or
other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unable to successfully complete clinical trials of our
product  candidate  or  other  testing,  (3)  the  results  of  these  trials  or  tests  are  unfavorable,  uncertain  or  are  only  modestly  favorable,  or  (4)  there  are
unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurring additional costs, may:

●

●

●

●

be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;

not obtain marketing approval at all;

obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;

obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxed warnings;

48

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
●

●

be subject to additional post-marketing testing or other requirements; or

be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.

If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potential
marketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.

We  may  experience  numerous  unforeseen  events  during,  or  as  a  result  of,  clinical  trials  that  could  delay  or  prevent  marketing  approval  of  any  of  our
product candidates, including:

●

clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;

● we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

the number  of  patients  required  for  clinical  trials  of  our  product  candidate  may  be  larger  than  we  anticipate,  patient  enrollment in  these
clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than we anticipate;

data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, including concerns about
patient safety;

regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons, including
noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;

patients with serious, life-threatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events for reasons that
may not be related to our product candidate;

participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;

patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;

changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect these changes;

our third-party contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof or conducting clinical
trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us in a timely manner or at all;

●

regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospective trial site;

● w e may  experience  delays  in  reaching  or  fail  to  reach  agreement  on  acceptable  clinical  trial  contracts  or  clinical  trial  protocols with

prospective trial sites;

●

patients who  enroll  in  a  clinical  trial  may  misrepresent  their  eligibility  to  do  so  or  may  otherwise  not  comply  with  the  clinical  trial protocol,
resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial or extend the clinical
trial’s duration;

● we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that the participants are

being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a product candidate;

●

the FDA or comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data from preclinical
studies and clinical trials;

the FDA or comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturing processes or
facilities of third-party manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;

the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of our product
candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experience interruptions in supply; and

t h e approval  policies  or  regulations  of  the  FDA  or  comparable  non-U.S.  regulatory  authorities  may  significantly  change  in  a  manner
rendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.

Product  development  costs  for  us  will  increase  if  we  experience  delays  in  testing  or  pursuing  marketing  approvals  and  we  may  be  required  to  obtain
additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do not know whether any preclinical
tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all. Significant preclinical or clinical trial
delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize our product candidates or allow our competitors to
bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize our product candidates and may harm our business and results
of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trial delays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our
product candidates.

If  we  experience  delays  or  difficulties  in  the  enrollment  of  patients  in  clinical  trials,  we  may  not  achieve  our  clinical  development  on  our
anticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.

We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune our DN-TNF product platform or any other product candidate if we are unable to
locate  and  enroll  a  sufficient  number  of  eligible  patients  to  participate  in  clinical  trials.  Patient  enrollment  is  a  significant  factor  in  the  timing  of  clinical
trials, and is affected by many factors, including:

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

the size and nature of the patient population;

the severity of the disease under investigation;

the proximity of patients to clinical sites;

the eligibility criteria for the trial;

the design of the clinical trial;

efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;

competing clinical trials; and

clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other available therapies,
including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.

Our  inability  to  enroll  a  sufficient  number  of  patients  for  our  clinical  trials  could  result  in  significant  delays  or  may  require  us  to  abandon  one  or  more
clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our product candidates, delay or halt the
development  of  and  approval  processes  for  our  product  candidates  and  jeopardize  our  ability  to  achieve  our  clinical  development  timeline  and  goals,
including  the  dates  by  which  we  will  commence,  complete  and  receive  results  from  clinical  trials.  Enrollment  delays  may  also  delay  or  jeopardize  our
ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of the foregoing could cause the value of the Company to decline
and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.

We  will  need  to  obtain  FDA  approval  of  any  proposed  product  brand  names,  and  any  failure  or  delay  associated  with  such  approval  may
adversely impact our business.

A  pharmaceutical  product  cannot  be  marketed  in  the  U.S.  or  other  countries  until  we  have  completed  rigorous  and  extensive  regulatory  review
processes,  including  approval  of  a  brand  name.  Any  brand  names  we  intend  to  use  for  our  product  candidates  will  require  approval  from  the  FDA
regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. The FDA typically
conducts  a  review  of  proposed  product  brand  names,  including  an  evaluation  of  potential  for  confusion  with  other  product  names.  The  FDA  may  also
object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects to any of our proposed product brand
names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt an alternative brand name, we would lose the
benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required to expend significant additional resources in an effort to
identify  a  suitable  product  brand  name  that  would  qualify  under  applicable  trademark  laws,  not  infringe  the  existing  rights  of  third  parties  and  be
acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for a new trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our
ability to commercialize our product candidates.

We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, may not
confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.

Market  exclusivity  afforded  by  orphan  drug  designation  is  generally  offered  as  an  incentive  to  drug  developers  to  invest  in  developing  and
commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to
treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States. Qualification to
maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drug exclusivity period, currently seven years from the
date of approval in the United States.

We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancer and we expect to
rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related market exclusivity, in the United States
could  be  lost.  Further,  even  if  we  are  granted  orphan  drug  status,  the  FDA  can  still  approve  different  drugs  for  use  in  treating  the  same  indication  or
disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.

Further, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same product candidate will receive
marketing  approval  for  the  same  indication  before  we  do.  If  that  were  to  happen,  our  applications  for  that  indication  may  not  be  approved  until  the
competing  company’s  period  of  exclusivity  expires.  Even  if  we  are  the  first  to  obtain  marketing  authorization  for  an  orphan  drug  indication,  there  are
circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the seven-year period of marketing exclusivity, such as
if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product is deemed a different product than ours. Further, the
seven-year marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval of the same product candidate as ours for indications other than
those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use of other types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.

51

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If the market opportunities for our product candidates are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and our
business  may  suffer.  Because  the  target  patient  populations  of  our  product  candidates  are  small,  we  must  be  able  to  successfully  identify
patients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.

We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number of people who have
failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may prove to be incorrect and new
studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the United States, Europe and elsewhere may
turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or new patients may become increasingly difficult to
identify  or  gain  access  to,  all  of  which  would  adversely  affect  our  results  of  operations  and  our  business.  Additionally,  because  our  target  patient
populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.

We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements .

Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements, including
cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in, among other things, fines, injunctions,
civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pending applications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and
production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.

Even if our product candidates receive marketing approval, they may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,
third-party  payors  and  others  in  the  medical  community  necessary  for  commercial  success  and  the  market  opportunity  for  the  product
candidates may be smaller than we estimate.

We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, our DN-TNF product platform (INB03, XPro1595, Quellor, LIVNate), or any other product
candidate  we  develop  is  approved  by  the  appropriate  regulatory  authorities  for  marketing  and  sale,  it  may  nonetheless  fail  to  gain  sufficient  market
acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their
patients  from  existing  therapies  even  when  new  and  potentially  more  effective  or  convenient  treatments  enter  the  market.  Further,  patients  often
acclimate  to  the  therapy  that  they  are  currently  taking  and  do  not  want  to  switch  unless  their  physicians  recommend  switching  products  or  they  are
required to switch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.

Efforts to educate the medical community and third-party payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significant resources and may not
be  successful.  If  our  product  candidate  is  approved  but  does  not  achieve  an  adequate  level  of  market  acceptance,  we  may  not  generate  significant
revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other product candidate we develop, if approved for
commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:

●

●

●

●

the efficacy and safety of the product;

the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;

the prevalence and severity of any side effects;

the clinical indications for which the product is approved;

● whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a first-line therapy or as a second- or third-line therapy;

●

●

●

●

limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;

our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;

our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;

the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;

the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;

the approval of other new products for the same indications;

changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;

the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;

availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other third-party payors;

adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and

potential product liability claims.

The  potential  market  opportunities  for  our  product  candidate  are  difficult  to  estimate  precisely.  Our  estimates  of  the  potential  market  opportunities  are
predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, third-party research reports and other surveys. While we believe that
our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on the part of our management, are inherently
uncertain  and  the  reasonableness  of  these  assumptions  has  not  been  assessed  by  an  independent  source.  If  any  of  the  assumptions  proves  to  be
inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates of the potential market opportunities.

Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or any product from our DN-TNF platform (INB03, XPro1595, Quellor, LIVNate) those
approvals  and  ongoing  regulation  of  our  products  may  limit  how  we  manufacture  and  market  our  products,  which  could  prevent  us  from
realizing the full benefit of our efforts.

If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or the DN-TNF product platform, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will be subject to
continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition, regulatory authorities
may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we may develop. These and other factors may
significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.

We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, which include requirements
relating  to  quality  control  and  quality  assurance  as  well  as  to  the  corresponding  maintenance  of  records  and  documentation.  Furthermore,  any
manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used to manufacture INKmune, and they will also
be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to our manufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and
state  or  foreign  regulatory  authorities.  Failure  to  comply  with  FDA  or  other  applicable  regulatory  requirements  may  result  in  criminal  prosecution,  civil
penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension of production or withdrawal of a product from the market.

We must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems with INKmune, the DN-TNF
product platform or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or the DN-TNF product platform may result in restrictions or sanctions on our
products or manufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate our
products,  conduct  additional  clinical  trials,  make  changes  in  the  labeling  of  our  product  or  obtain  re-approvals.  This  may  cause  our  reputation  in  the
market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.

If our product candidates receive marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed
or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drugs could be compromised.

Clinical  trials  of  our  product  candidates  will  be  conducted  in  carefully  defined  subsets  of  patients  who  have  agreed  to  enter  into  clinical  trials.
Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than the actual positive
effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, or others, discover that the drug is
less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, any of the following adverse events could
occur:

●

regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;

● we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;

●

additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;

● we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;

●

regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;

● we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution to patients;

● we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;

●

●

the drug may become less competitive; and

our reputation may suffer.

Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.

Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, post-approval
clinical  data,  labeling  and  promotional  activities  for  such  product,  will  be  subject  to  continual  and  additional  requirements  of  the  FDA  and
other regulatory authorities.

These  requirements  include  submissions  of  safety  and  other  post-marketing  information,  reports,  registration  and  listing  requirements,  good
manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of records and documents,
and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for
which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly post-marketing testing and surveillance to monitor the
safety  or  efficacy  of  the  product.  The  FDA  closely  regulates  the  post-approval  marketing  and  promotion  of  pharmaceutical  products  to  ensure  such
products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions of the approved labeling.

In  addition,  later  discovery  of  previously  unknown  problems  with  our  products,  manufacturing  processes,  or  failure  to  comply  with  regulatory
requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:

●

●

●

restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;

restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;

restrictions on product distribution or use;

●

●

requirements to conduct post-marketing clinical trials;

requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product post-approval;

● warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;

● withdrawal of the products from the market;

●

●

●

●

●

refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;

recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;

suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;

refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and

injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.

We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establish marketing
and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be able to generate
product revenue.

We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If we develop internal
sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources and time, and we would have to
compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing and sales personnel.

If  we  are  unable  or  decide  not  to  establish  internal  sales,  marketing  and  distribution  capabilities,  we  expect  to  pursue  collaborative  arrangements
regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain such collaborative arrangements, or
if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue we receive would depend upon the efforts of
such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales, marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties
and  our  revenue  from  product  sales  may  be  lower  than  if  we  had  commercialized  our  product  candidates  ourselves.  We  also  face  competition  in  our
search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distribution efforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be
able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities or establish or maintain relationships with third-party collaborators to commercialize any
product in the United States or overseas.

We face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail to
compete effectively.

The  development  and  commercialization  of  new  drug  products  is  highly  competitive.  We  expect  that  we  will  face  significant  competition  from  major
pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmune, our DN-TNF product
platform,  and  any  other  of  our  product  candidates  that  we  may  seek  to  develop  or  commercialize  in  the  future.  Specifically,  due  to  the  large  unmet
medical need, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a number
of large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of product candidates for
the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products that are more effective, have
fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing or that we may develop, which could
render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.

We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to grow
effectively.

We  are  dependent  on  certain  members  of  our  management,  the  loss  of  services  of  one  or  more  of  whom  could  materially  adversely  affect  us.  In
particular,  our  success  depends  to  a  significant  extent  upon  the  continued  services  of  Dr.  Raymond  J.  Tesi,  our  President  and  CEO.  Dr.  Tesi  has
overseen  INmune  Bio  since  inception  and  provides  leadership  for  our  growth  and  operations  strategy  as  well  as  being  an  inventor  of  our  patents.
Although  we  have  entered  into  an  employment  agreement  with  Dr.  Tesi,  if  he  were  to  nevertheless  terminate  his  employment  with  us,  the  loss  of  the
services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are also highly dependent on the other
principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any of our key personnel to leave our company
or  to  retire.  The  loss  of  any  of  our  key  personnel,  or  the  inability  to  attract  and  retain  qualified  personnel,  may  significantly  delay  or  prevent  the
achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Our  ability  to  manage  growth  effectively  will  require  us  to  continue  to  implement  and  improve  our  management  systems  and  to  recruit  and  train  new
employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.

Product  liability  lawsuits  against  us  could  divert  our  resources,  cause  us  to  incur  substantial  liabilities  and  limit  commercialization  of  any
products that we may develop.

We  face  an  inherent  risk  of  product  liability  claims  as  a  result  of  the  clinical  testing  of  our  product  candidate  despite  obtaining  appropriate  informed
consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that we may develop. For example, we
may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable during clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or
sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the
product,  negligence,  strict  liability  or  a  breach  of  warranties.  Claims  could  also  be  asserted  under  state  consumer  protection  acts.  If  we  cannot
successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product
candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:

●

●

decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;

injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention;

● withdrawal of clinical trial participants;

●

●

●

●

●

significant costs to defend resulting litigation;

substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;

loss of revenue;

reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and

the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.

Although we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. The cost of any product
liability  litigation  or  other  proceeding,  even  if  resolved  in  our  favor,  could  be  substantial.  In  addition,  insurance  coverage  is  becoming  increasingly
expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwise protect against potential product
liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our product candidate, which could adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.

To  execute  our  business  plan,  we  will  need  to  rapidly  add  other  management,  accounting,  regulatory,  manufacturing  and  scientific  staff.  We  currently
have 5 full time employees and retain the services of additional personnel on an independent contractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate
a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing, financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and
medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursue our research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and
secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. This growth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources.
We  also  intend  to  add  personnel  in  our  research  and  development  and  manufacturing  departments  as  we  expand  our  clinical  trial  and  research
capabilities.  Any  inability  to  attract  and  retain  qualified  employees  to  enable  our  planned  growth  and  establish  additional  capabilities  or  our  failure  to
manage our growth effectively could delay or curtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.

If we or any of our third-party manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercialize our
product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.

We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulations rigorously enforced
by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce our products do not pass a pre-approval
inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for our product candidates. In complying with cGMP, we and any third-party manufacturers will need to
expend  significant  time,  money  and  effort  in  production,  record-keeping  and  quality  control  to  assure  that  each  component  of  our  product  candidates
meets  applicable  specifications  and  other  requirements.  We  or  any  of  these  third-party  manufacturers  may  also  be  subject  to  comparable  or  more
stringent  regulations  of  foreign  regulatory  authorities.  If  we  or  any  of  our  third-party  manufacturers  fail  to  comply  with  these  requirements,  we  may  be
subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approval of, and commercialize our product candidates. If
our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and that meet our required specifications, our clinical
trials or commercialization of our product candidates could be delayed or halted, and we could face product liability claims. There can be no assurance
we can manufacture a scalable quantity of our product for clinical trials or commercialization.

If we or our third-party manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law, we
may be liable for damages.

Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical and biological materials, by
us and any third-party manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations in the United States
governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Although we will seek to ensure that our procedures
for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or
injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any such contamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal
authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt our business operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages
or  penalized  with  fines,  and  the  liability  could  exceed  our  resources.  We  do  not  have  any  insurance  for  liabilities  arising  from  medical  or  hazardous
materials. Compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our
research, development and production efforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.

We plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidates. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations with
respect  to  the  clinical  development  of  our  product  candidate  may  delay  or  impair  our  ability  to  obtain  regulatory  approval  for  our  product
candidates.

We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct clinical trials relating to our product candidates. Our reliance on third
parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical data generated and adversely
affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.

Such  clinical  trial  arrangements  will  provide  us  with  information  rights  with  respect  to  the  clinical  data,  including  access  to  and  the  ability  to  use  and
reference  the  data,  including  for  our  own  regulatory  filings,  resulting  from  the  clinical  trials.  If  investigators  or  institutions  breach  their  obligations  with
respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability to design and conduct any future clinical trials
may be adversely affected.

57

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our  reliance  on  these  third  parties  for  research  and  development  activities  will  reduce  our  control  over  these  activities  but  will  not  relieve  us  of  our
responsibilities.  For  example,  we  will  design  our  clinical  trials  and  will  remain  responsible  for  ensuring  that  each  of  our  clinical  trials  is  conducted  in
accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply with standards, commonly referred
to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials to assure that data and reported results are
credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected. Our reliance on third parties that we do not control
will  not  relieve  us  of  these  responsibilities  and  requirements.  We  also  are  required  to  register  ongoing  clinical  trials  and  post  the  results  of  completed
clinical trials on a government-sponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specified timeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity
and civil and criminal sanctions.

Furthermore,  these  third  parties  may  also  have  relationships  with  other  entities,  some  of  which  may  be  our  competitors.  If  these  third  parties  do  not
successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance with regulatory requirements or our
stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for our product candidate and will not be able to, or
may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.

We  also  expect  to  rely  on  other  third  parties  to  store  and  distribute  drug  supplies  for  our  clinical  trials.  Any  performance  failure  on  the  part  of  our
distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products, producing additional
losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.

Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, if approved,
could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.

The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatory proposals to change
the  healthcare  system  in  ways  that  could  affect  our  ability  to  sell  any  of  our  products  profitably,  if  approved.  Among  policy-makers  and  payors  in  the
United  States  and  elsewhere,  there  is  significant  interest  in  promoting  changes  in  healthcare  systems  with  the  stated  goals  of  containing  healthcare
costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus of these
efforts  and  has  been  significantly  affected  by  major  legislative  initiatives.  There  have  been,  and  likely  will  continue  to  be,  legislative  and  regulatory
proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcare and containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot
predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts of the government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and
other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs of healthcare may adversely affect:

●

●

●

●

●

the demand for any of our products, if approved;

our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;

our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;

the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and

the availability of capital.

In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). The goal of ACA is to
reduce  the  cost  of  healthcare,  broaden  access  to  health  insurance,  constrain  healthcare  spending,  enhance  remedies  against  fraud  and  abuse,  add
transparency  requirements  for  the  healthcare  and  health  insurance  industries,  impose  taxes  and  fees  on  the  health  industry,  impose  additional  health
policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers. While we cannot predict what impact
on  federal  reimbursement  policies  this  legislation  will  have  in  general  or  on  our  business  specifically,  ACA  may  result  in  downward  pressure  on
pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of any of our products, if they are approved.

We  cannot  predict  what  healthcare  reform  initiatives  may  be  adopted  in  the  future.  Further  federal,  state  and  foreign  legislative  and  regulatory
developments  are  likely,  and  we  expect  ongoing  initiatives  to  increase  pressure  on  drug  pricing.  Such  reforms  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on
anticipated  revenues  from  product  candidates  that  we  may  successfully  develop  and  for  which  we  may  obtain  regulatory  approval  and  may  affect  our
overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.

Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.

As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly on obtaining and enforcing
patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legal complexity, and therefore, is costly, time-
consuming  and  inherently  uncertain.  In  addition,  the  United  States  has  recently  enacted  and  is  currently  implementing  wide-ranging  patent  reform
legislation.  Further,  recent  U.S.  Supreme  Court  rulings  have  either  narrowed  the  scope  of  patent  protection  available  in  certain  circumstances  or
weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasing uncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future,
this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to the value of patents, once obtained.

In  September  2011,  the  Leahy-Smith  America  Invents  Act,  or  the  American  Invents  Act,  or  AIA,  was  signed  into  law.  The  AIA  includes  a  number  of
significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may also affect patent litigation.
The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of the substantive changes to patent law
associated  with  the  AIA.  It  is  not  clear  what  other,  if  any,  impact  the  AIA  will  have  on  the  operation  of  our  business.  Moreover,  the  AIA  and  its
implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patent application, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business and financial condition.

An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “first-to-file” system for deciding which party
should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention. A third party that files a patent
application  in  the  USPTO  after  that  date  but  before  us  could  therefore  be  awarded  a  patent  covering  an  invention  of  ours  even  if  we  had  made  the
invention  before  it  was  made  by  the  third  party.  This  will  require  us  to  be  cognizant  going  forward  of  the  time  from  invention  to  filing  of  a  patent
application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents depends on whether the differences between our technology
and  the  prior  art  allow  our  technology  to  be  patentable  over  the  prior  art.  Since  patent  applications  in  the  United  States  and  most  other  countries  are
confidential  for  a  period  of  time  after  filing,  we  cannot  be  certain  that  we  were  the  first  to  either  (1)  file  any  patent  application  related  to  our  product
candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patent applications.

Among  some  of  the  other  changes  introduced  by  the  AIA  are  changes  that  limit  where  a  patentee  may  file  a  patent  infringement  suit  and  providing
opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even those issued before March 16,
2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in United States federal court necessary to
invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient for the USPTO to hold a claim invalid even
though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a district court action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to
use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have been invalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a
district court action.

Business  or  economic  disruptions  or  global  health  concerns  could  seriously  harm  our  development  efforts  and  increase  our  costs  and
expenses.

Broad-based  business  or  economic  disruptions  could  adversely  affect  our  ongoing  or  planned  research  and  development  activities.  For  example,  in
December 2019 an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus originated in Wuhan, China, and has since spread to a number of other countries, including
the  United  States.  To  date,  this  outbreak  has  already  resulted  in  extended  shutdowns  of  certain  businesses  in  the  Wuhan  region  and  has  had  ripple
effects to businesses around the world. Global health concerns, such as coronavirus, could  also  result  in  social,  economic,  and  labor  instability  in  the
countries in which we or the third parties with whom we engage operate. We cannot presently predict the scope and severity of any potential business
shutdowns or disruptions, but if we or any of the third parties with whom we engage, including the suppliers, clinical trial sites, regulators and other third
parties with whom we conduct business, were to experience shutdowns or other business disruptions, our ability to conduct our business in the manner
and on the timelines presently planned could be materially and negatively impacted. It is also possible that global health concerns such as this one could
disproportionately impact the clinical sites in which we conduct any of our clinical trials, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and
our results of operation and financial condition. The Company has not yet experienced any known business disruptions as a result of the coronavirus.

We  may  face  business  disruption  and  related  risks  resulting  from  President  Biden’s  invocation  of  the  Defense  Production  Act,  which  could
have a material adverse effect on our business.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, President Biden invoked the Defense Production Act (the “Defense Production Act”). Pursuant to the Defense
Production  Act,  the  federal  government  may,  among  other  things,  require  domestic  industries  to  provide  essential  goods  and  services  needed  for  the
national defense. While we have not experienced any impact on our business as a result of such actions, we continue to assess the potential impact that
the  invocation  of  the  Defense  Production  Act  may  have  on  our  ability  to  effectively  conduct  our  business  operations  as  planned,  either  as  a  result  of
becoming directly subject to the requirements of the Defense Production Act, our suppliers becoming so subject and diverting deliveries of raw materials
elsewhere,  or  otherwise.  There  can  be  no  assurance  that  we  will  not  be  impacted  by  any  action  taken  by  the  federal  government  under  the  Defense
Production Act, and any resulting disruption on our ability to conduct business could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results
or operations.

A cybersecurity incident and other technology disruptions could negatively affect our business and our relationships with customers.

We use technology in substantially all aspects of our business operations. The widespread use of technology, including mobile devices, cloud computing,
and the internet, give rise to cybersecurity risks, including security breach, espionage, system disruption, theft and inadvertent release of information. Our
business  involves  the  storage  and  transmission  of  numerous  classes  of  sensitive  and/or  confidential  information  and  intellectual  property,  including
information relating to suppliers, private information about employees, and financial and strategic information about us and our business partners. If we
fail to effectively assess and identify cybersecurity risks associated with the use of technology in our business operations, we may become increasingly
vulnerable to such risks. Additionally, while we have implemented measures to prevent security breaches and cyber incidents, our preventative measures
and  incident  response  efforts  may  not  be  entirely  effective.  The  theft,  destruction,  loss,  misappropriation,  or  release  of  sensitive  and/or  confidential
information or intellectual property, or interference with our information technology systems or the technology systems of third parties on which we rely,
could  result  in  business  disruption,  negative  publicity,  brand  damage,  violation  of  privacy  laws,  loss  of  customers,  potential  liability  and  competitive
disadvantage.

We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

We  have  paid  no  dividends  on  our  common  stock  to  date,  and  we  do  not  anticipate  paying  any  dividends  to  holders  of  our  common  stock  in  the
foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, we anticipate that we will
retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, you should take note of the fact that
a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect the value of any investment in our Company.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from other projects,
thus impairing our ability grow.

We  are  a  public  reporting  company  and,  accordingly,  subject  to  the  information  and  reporting  requirements  of  the  Exchange  Act  and  other  federal
securities  laws,  including  compliance  with  the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act  of  2002  (the  “Sarbanes-Oxley  Act”).  The  costs  of  preparing  and  filing  annual  and
quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would cause our expenses to be
higher than they would be if we remained privately held.

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-
Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate
internal controls and reporting procedures.

We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and if we decide
to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, our common stock
could be less attractive to investors.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (1) the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of
$1.07 billion or more, (2) December 31, 2024 (the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering),
(3) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt, and (4) the date on which we
are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act (i.e., the first day of the fiscal
year  after  we  have  (a)  more  than  $700.0  million  in  outstanding  common  equity  held  by  our  non-affiliates,  measured  each  year  on  the  last  day  of  our
second fiscal quarter, and (b) been public for at least 12 months).

Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may still qualify as a “smaller reporting company,” which would allow us to take
advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements including exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements
of  Section  404  of  the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act  and  reduced  disclosure  obligations  regarding  executive  compensation  in  our  periodic  reports  and  proxy
statements. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find
our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

Our stock price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are
beyond our control, including the following:

●

●

changes in our industry;

competitive pricing pressures;

●

●

●

●

our ability to obtain working capital financing;

additions or departures of key personnel;

limited  “public float”  in  the  hands  of  a  small  number  of  persons  whose  sales  or  lack  of  sales  could  result  in  positive  or  negative  pricing
pressure on the market price for our common stock;

sales of our common stock;

our ability to execute our business plan;

operating results that fall below expectations;

loss of any strategic relationship;

regulatory developments;

economic and other external factors;

period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results; and

inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.

In  addition,  the  securities  markets  have  from  time  to  time  experienced  significant  price  and  volume  fluctuations  that  are  unrelated  to  the  operating
performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our common stock.

Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our common stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investors may find it difficult
to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the common stock and would likely reduce
the market price of our common stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited market for our securities. Accordingly, investors
may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite period of time.

Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.

Given  our  plans  and  expectations  that  we  may  need  additional  capital  and  personnel,  we  may  need  to  issue  additional  shares  of  common  stock  or
securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options or warrants. The
issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.

Anti-takeover provisions in our stockholder rights plan could make a third-party acquisition of us difficult.

We  have  a  stockholder  rights  plan  that  may  have  the  effect  of  discouraging  unsolicited  takeover  proposals.  Specifically,  the  rights  issued  under  the
stockholder rights plan could cause significant dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire us on terms not approved in advance by our board of
directors. The rights plan is not intended to prevent a takeover, and we believe it will enable all our stockholders to realize the full potential value of their
investment in the Company and protect the Company and its stockholders from efforts to obtain control of the Company that are inconsistent with the
best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The rights under the plan will expire on December 30, 2021, subject to a possible earlier expiration to
the extent provided in the stockholder rights plan, unless extended.

ITEM  5.  MARKET  FOR  REGISTRANT’S  COMMON  EQUITY,  RELATED  STOCKHOLDER  MATTERS  AND  ISSUER  PURCHASES  OF  EQUITY
SECURITIES

Common Stock

Our common stock trades under the symbol “INMB” on the Nasdaq and has been publicly traded since February 4, 2019. Prior to this time, there was no
public market for our common stock.

As of December 31, 2020, there were 35 holders of record of our common stock. Because shares of our common stock are held by depositories, brokers
and other nominees, the number of beneficial holders of our shares is substantially larger than the number of record holders.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer

During  January  2020,  the  Company  purchased  and  cancelled  220,000  shares  of  its  common  stock  from  a  shareholder  in  exchange  for  $1,012,000  of
cash. Immediately following the purchase, the investor owned less than 10% of the outstanding common stock of the Company.

Dividend Policy

We have not declared any cash dividends on our common stock since inception and do not anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future.
We  plan  to  retain  any  future  earnings  for  use  in  our  business  operations.  Any  decisions  as  to  future  payment  of  cash  dividends  will  depend  on  our
earnings and financial position and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and in Item 10(f)91) of Regulation S-K, we are electing
scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information required by this item.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You  should  read  the  following  discussion  and  analysis  of  our  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  in  conjunction  with  our  financial
statements  and  notes  thereto  appearing  elsewhere  in  this  Annual  Report.  In  addition  to  historical  financial  information,  the  following  discussion  and
analysis  contains  forward-looking  statements  that  involve  risks,  uncertainties,  and  assumptions.  Our  actual  results  could  differ  materially  from  those
anticipated  by  these  forward-looking  statements  as  a  result  of  many  factors.  We  discuss  factors  that  we  believe  could  cause  or  contribute  to  these
differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10-K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

We are a clinical-stage immunotherapy company focused on developing drugs that may reprogram the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease.
We believe this may be done by targeting cells of the innate immune system that cause acute and chronic inflammation and are involved in the immune
dysfunction associated with chronic diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative, metabolic and infectious diseases. The Company has two therapeutic
platforms – dominant-negative TNF platform (“DN-TNF”) and the Natural Killer (“NK”) platform. The DN-TNF platform neutralizes soluble TNF (“sTNF”)
without affecting trans-membrane TNF (“tmTNF”) or the receptors TNFR1 and TNFR2. This unique biologic mechanism differentiates the DN-TNF drugs
from currently approved non-selective TNF inhibitors that inhibit the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Protecting the function of tmTNF while neutralizing
the function of sTNF is a potent anti-inflammatory drug that does not cause immunosuppression or demyelination. Currently approved non-selective TNF
inhibitors  are  approved  to  treat  autoimmune  disease,  however  they  are  contraindicated  in  patients  with  infection,  cancer  and  neurologic  diseases
because they increase the risk of infection, cancer and demyelinating neurologic diseases, respectively, because of off-target effects on inhibiting tmTNF.
The NK platform targets the dysfunctional natural killer cells (“NK cells”) in patients with cancer. NK cells are part of the normal immunologic response to
cancer  with  important  roles  in  immunosurveillance  to  prevent  cancer  and  in  preventing  relapse  by  clearing  residual  disease.  Residual  disease  is  the
cancer left behind, often undetected, that can grow and cause relapse. The NK cells of cancer patients have the ability to kill cancer cells but are not
effective  because  cancer  cells  mutate  to  evade  NK  cell  immune  surveillance.  INKmune  provides  the  missing  signals  needed  to  prime  NK  cells  to
overcome the immune evasion mutation to allow NK cells to kill the cancer cell. We believe INKmune is best used to eliminate residual disease after the
patient has completed other cancer therapies. Both the DN-TNF platform and the INKmune platform can be used to treat multiple diseases. The DN-TNF
platform  will  be  used  as  an  immunotherapy  for  the  treatment  of  cancer,  neurodegenerative,  metabolic  and  infectious  diseases.  INKmune  is  being
developed to treat NK sensitive hematologic malignancies and solid tumors.

We  believe  our  DN-TNF  platform  can  be  used  to  reverse  resistance  in  immunotherapy,  to  target  glial  activation  to  prevent  progression  of  Alzheimer’s
disease  (“AD”),  to  target  neuroinflammation  in  treatment  resistant  depression  (“TRD”),  to  target  intestinal  leak  and  inflammation  to  treat  non-alcoholic
steatohepatitis  (“NASH”)  and  to  treat  complications  of  the  cytokine  storm  associated  with  COVID-19  infection.  The  drug  is  named  differently  for  each
indication;  INB03,  XPro1595,  LIVNate  and  Quellor,  respectively,  but  it  is  the  same  drug  product.  In  each  case,  we  believe  neutralizing  sTNF  is  a
cornerstone to the treatment of each of these diseases. As an immunotherapy for cancer, we are using INB03 to neutralize sTNF produced by HER2+
trastuzumab resistant breast cancers to reverse resistance to therapy. sTNF causes an up-regulation of MUC4 expression that causes steric hindrance of
trastuzumab binding to the HER2/Neu receptor on HER2+ breast cancer cells. Without binding, trastuzumab is not effective. In addition, INB03 changes
the immunobiology of the tumor microenvironment by decreasing the number of immunosuppressive myeloid cells, both myeloid derived suppressor cells
and  tumor  active  macrophages,  and  increasing  the  number  of  cytotoxic  lymphocytes  in  the  TME.  The  Company  has  completed  an  open  label  dose
escalation trial in cancer patients with metastatic solid tumors that have failed multiple lines of therapy. The trial informs the design of the Phase II trial by
demonstrating  that  INB03  was  safe  and  well  tolerated,  defined  the  dose  of  INB03  to  carry  into  Phase  II  trials,  and  demonstrated  a  pharmacodynamic
end-point. A Phase II trial is planned in women with advanced HER2+ breast cancer with metastasis.

Likewise,  we  believe  the  DN-TNF  platform  can  be  used  to  treat  selected  neurodegenerative  diseases.  XPro1595  is  being  used  to  treat  patients  with
Alzheimer’s disease in a Phase I trial partially funded by a Part-the-Clouds Award from the Alzheimer’s Association. XPro1595 targets activated microglia
and astrocytes of the brain that produce sTNF that promotes nerve cell loss and synaptic dysfunction, key elements in the development of dementia. In
animal  models,  elimination  of  sTNF  prevents  nerve  cell  dysfunction  and  reverses  synaptic  pruning.  The  Phase  I  trial  in  patients  with  biomarkers  of
inflammation with AD is enrolling patients. The open label, dose escalation trial is designed to demonstrate that XPro1595 decreases neuroinflammation
in patients with AD. This end-points of the trial are measures of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, measures of
neuroinflammation  by  MRI  by  measuring  white  matter  free  water  and  breath  by  measuring  volatile  organic  compounds  in  exhaled  breath  and  by
monitoring  neuropsychiatric  symptoms  known  to  be  associated  with  neuroinflammation  including  depression,  apathy,  aggression,  hallucinations  and
sleep disorders.

In addition, we believe the DN-TNF platform can be used to treat selected metabolic diseases. LIVNate is being developed to treat NASH. NASH is a
pleiotropic  disease  caused  by  a  complex  mix  of  metabolic,  inflammatory  and  fibrotic  pathophysiology.  We  believe  targeting  inflammation  caused  by
intestinal leak, mesenteric and peripheral fat will prevent lipotoxicity, hepatic stellate cell activation and hepatocyte death that causes fibrosis and liver
dysfunction  associated  with  advanced  disease.  sTNF  is  elevated  in  obesity  and  is  believed  to  cause  intestinal  leak.  Intestinal  leak  combined  with
cytokines coming from mesenteric fat may dramatically increase the concentration of inflammatory cytokines in portal blood destined for the liver. The
cytokine  load  contributes  to  the  development  of  non-alcoholic  fatty  liver  disease  (“NAFLD”)  and  progression  to  NASH.  LIVNate,  by  neutralizing  sTNF
improves insulin sensitivity, decreases the inflammation in peripheral and mesenteric fat and may also seal the intestinal leak. This combination prevents
development of NAFLD or NASH in animal models. The Company is planning a Phase II open label randomized study using non-invasive measures to
enroll patients with NASH in a study using a fixed dose of LIVNate delivered as a once a week sub-cutaneous injection.

We also believe the DN-TNF platform may be used to treat the complications associated with the cytokine storm caused by coronavirus disease 2019
(“COVID-19”). Three inflammatory cytokines make up the cytokine storm associated with COVID19 infection – sTNF, IL-6 and IL-1β. Targeting sTNF with
Quellor may have advantages because IL-6 and IL-1 expression occur after sTNF expression; sTNF promotes endothelial activation causing expression
of proteins that promote trafficking of immune cells from the blood vessel to the tissue and expression of Tissue Factor that stimulates the coagulopathy
that is a prominent pathology of COVID-19 infection. The Company plans a Phase II trial in patients with symptomatic COVID-19 infection and hypoxia.
The  goal  of  the  study  is  to  prevent  the  catastrophic  complications  of  advanced  COVID-19  infection  including  one  or  more  of  the  need  for  mechanical
ventilation, new onset of cardiovascular, neurologic or thromboembolic disease, admission to an intensive care unit or death. The randomized trial will
treat patients requiring hospitalization because of their disease.

Effective  therapy  for  treatment  resistant  depression  (TRD)  is  a  large  unmet  need.  Twenty  percent  of  patients  with  a  Major  Depressive  Disorder  have
TRD. Once third of TRD patients have peripheral biomarkers to inflammation (elevated CRP). This is a large patient population. The role of TNF and anti-
TNF  therapeutics  was  explored  in  a  small  open  label  clinical  trial  by  Prof.  Andrew  Miller,  MD  of  Emory  University  demonstrated  the  patients  have
elevated TNF levels and treatment with infliximab treated their depression (Miller, 2011). The Company received a $2.9M USD award from the National
Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) to treat TRD with XPro1595. The blinded, randomized Phase II trial will use a biomarkers of peripheral inflammation to
select patients with TRD for enrollment. Patients will be treated for 6 weeks. Primary end-points include both clinical and neuroimaging measures. The
final trial design has is ongoing and discussions with the FDA are not complete. The Company anticipates receiving authorization to initiate the clinical
trial in the second half of 2021.

We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert
them from inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into primed NK cells that kill the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary
cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient after determining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK
cells  are  functional  when  exposed  to  INKmune  in  vitro.  INKmune  is  designed  to  be  given  to  patients  after  their  immune  system  has  recovered  after
cytotoxic  chemotherapy  to  target  the  residual  disease  the  remains  after  treatment  with  cytotoxic  therapy.  INKmune  can  be  used  to  treat  numerous
hematologic  malignancies  and  solid  tumors  including  leukemia,  multiple  myeloma,  lymphoma,  lung,  ovary,  breast,  renal  and  prostate  cancer.  The
Company plans Phase I trials using INKmune to treat patients with high risk MDS, a form of leukemia and women with relapsed refractory ovarian.

As a company with less than $1.07 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As an
emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to
public companies. These provisions include:

●

●

●

●

●

only  two  years  of audited  financial  statements  in  addition  to  any  required  unaudited  interim  financial  statements  with  correspondingly
reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;

reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;

no non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;

exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and

delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those
standards apply to private companies.

We have elected to take advantage of the above-referenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to five years or such
earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we have more than $1.07 billion
in  annual  revenues,  we  have  more  than  $700  million  in  market  value  of  our  stock  held  by  non-affiliates,  or  we  issue  more  than  $1  billion  of  non-
convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reduced burdens.

Components of Operating Results

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discover and develop our
product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts and activities related to regulatory
filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Our research and development expense primarily
consist of:

●

●

clinical trial and regulatory-related costs;

expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;

● manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials; and

●

employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stock-based compensation

We typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourced development costs by
product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or external consultant costs to specific product
candidates or development programs.

We  participate,  through  our  wholly-owned  subsidiary  in  Australia,  in  the  Australian  research  and  development  tax  incentive  program,  such  that  a
percentage of our qualifying research and development expenditures are reimbursed by the Australian government, and such incentives are reflected as
a  reduction  of  research  and  development  expense.  The  Australian  research  and  development  tax  incentive  is  recognized  when  there  is  reasonable
assurance that the incentive will be received, the relevant expenditure has been incurred and the amount of the consideration can be reliably measured.

We participate, through our wholly-owned subsidiary in the United Kingdom, in the research and development program provided by the United Kingdom
tax relief program, such that a percentage of our qualifying research and development expenditures are reimbursed by the United Kingdom government,
and such incentives are reflected as a reduction of research and development expense. The United Kingdom research and development tax incentive is
recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the incentive will be received, the relevant expenditure has been incurred and the amount of the
consideration can be reliably measured.

Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our current and future product candidates. We
expect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of our product
candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials and manufacturing drug to be used in those clinical trials. The
process  of  conducting  clinical  trials  necessary  to  obtain  regulatory  approval  is  costly  and  time  consuming.  The  successful  development  of  product
candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of
any product candidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.

The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

●

per patient trial costs;

the number of sites included in the clinical trials;

the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;

the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;

the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;

the number of doses that patients receive;

the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;

the drop-out or discontinuation rates of patients;

potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;

the duration of patient follow-up;

the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate; and

the cost of manufacturing, finishing, labeling and storage drug used in the clinical trial

We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect to continue to incur
significant  expenses  and  increasing  operating  losses  for  the  foreseeable  future,  which  may  fluctuate  significantly  from  quarter-to-quarter  and  year-to-
year. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:

●

●

continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;

potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;

●

seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;

establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of our product
candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;
seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;

● maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;

●

●

●

hire clinical,  manufacturing,  scientific  and  other  personnel  to  support  our  product  candidates  development  and  future  commercialization
efforts;

add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and

incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist principally of payroll and personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation; professional fees for
legal, consulting, accounting and tax services; overhead, including rent and utilities; and other general operating expenses not otherwise classified as
research and development expenses.

Waiver of Common Stock Issuable

Waiver  of  common  stock  issuable  consists  of  a  reversal  of  stock-based  compensation  for  a  consultant  that  permanently  waived  the  Company  issuing
200,000 shares owed to the consultant which were expensed in a prior period.

Other income

Other  income  primarily  consists  of  income  from  a  settlement  in  2020.  In  addition,  other  income  includes  interest  income  on  money  market  accounts
during 2020 and 2019.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

This  management’s  discussion  and  analysis  of  our  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  is  based  on  our  financial  statements,  which  we  have
prepared  in  accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States.  The  preparation  of  our  financial  statements  requires  us  to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date  of  our  financial  statements,  as  well  as  the  reported  revenues  and  expenses  during  the  reported  periods.  We  evaluate  these  estimates  and
judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

In-Process Research and Development

The Company evaluates the carrying value of indefinite-lived intangible assets, which consists of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), on an
annual basis or more frequently when indicators of impairment exist. An impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets would occur if the fair value of the
intangible  asset  is  less  than  the  carrying  value.  Intangible  assets  with  finite  lives  are  tested  for  impairment  when  events  or  changes  in  circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If these facts and circumstances exist, the Company assesses for recovery by
comparing the carrying values of the assets with their future undiscounted net cash flows. Significant management judgment is required in the forecast of
future operating results that are used in the preparation of expected undiscounted cash flows.

IPR&D assets are considered to be indefinite-lived until the completion or abandonment of the associated research and development projects. During the
period  the  assets  are  considered  indefinite-lived,  they  are  tested  for  impairment.  If  the  related  project  is  terminated  or  abandoned,  the  Company  may
have a full or partial impairment related to the IPR&D assets, calculated as the excess of their carrying value over fair value. The valuation process is
very complex and requires significant input and judgment using internal and external sources with respect to the Company’s future revenue and expense
growth rates, changes in working capital use, the selection of an appropriate discount rate, and other assumptions and estimates.

Research and Development (“R&D”)

R&D expenses consist primarily of costs related to clinical studies and outside services, personnel expenses, and other R&D expenses. Clinical studies
and  outside  services  costs  relate  primarily  to  services  performed  by  clinical  research  organizations  and  related  clinical  or  development  manufacturing
costs,  materials  and  supplies,  filing  fees,  regulatory  support,  and  other  third-party  fees.  Personnel  expenses  relate  primarily  to  salaries,  benefits  and
share-based compensation. R&D expenditures are charged to operations as incurred.

We recognize R&D tax credits receivable from the United Kingdom and Australian government for spending on R&D as an offset of R&D expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation

We  measure  and  recognize  compensation  expense  for  all  stock-based  awards  granted  to  service  providers.  employees,  and  directors  based  on  the
estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. We calculate the estimated fair value of stock options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model, which is impacted by the fair value of our common stock, as well as changes in assumptions regarding a number of highly complex
and  subjective  variables.  These  variables  include,  but  are  not  limited  to,  the  market  value  of  common  stock  on  the  grant  date,  the  expected  dividend
yield, the expected term of the awards, the risk-free interest rates and the expected common stock price volatility over the term of the option awards. The
expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a few unrelated public companies within our industry over the most recent period commensurate
with  the  estimated  expected  term  of  our  stock  options  as  we  have  insufficient  historical  information  regarding  the  volatility  of  the  share  price  of  our
common stock. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of
grant. We have never declared or paid dividends and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.

We  recognize  the  fair  value  of  stock  options  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  period  during  which  a  service  provider  is  required  to  provide  services  in
exchange for the award (generally the vesting period). We account for forfeitures as they occur.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.

Licensing and Collaboration Agreements

We  anticipate  that  in-licensing,  out-licensing  and  strategic  collaborations  will  become  an  integral  part  of  our  operations,  providing  the  company  with
opportunities  to  leverage  our  partners’  expertise  and  capabilities  to  further  expand  the  potential  of  our  technologies,  product  candidates  and  revenue
streams.

Xencor

In October 2017, we licensed INB03 (also known as XPro1595, Quellor, and LIVNate) from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came with
considerable know-how, intellectual property, pre-clinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on the immune-
oncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety of delivery techniques by
ourselves or in conjunction with partners.

During 2020, the Company sold MSC’s to one third-party and recognized $10,916 of revenues. There were no sales during 2019.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $6.0 million for the year ended December
31,  2019.  The  increase  was  primarily  attributable  to  higher  stock-compensation  ($0.2  million  higher  in  2020),  higher  insurance  expense  ($0.2  million
higher in 2020) and higher wages and benefits ($0.2 million higher in 2020) partially offset by lower professional fees ($0.4 million lower in 2020).

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased to $5.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 from $3.3 million for the year ended December
31,  2019.  During  the  years  ended  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  the  Company  recorded  stock-based  compensation  of  $0.6  million  and  $1.8  million,
respectively,  within  research  and  development  expenses.  The  increase  in  research  and  development  expenses  during  the  year  ending  December  31,
2020 compared to December 31, 2019 is due to additional amounts incurred for the advancement of our drug platform and due to the Company incurring
manufacturing costs in connection with producing its DN-TNF product.

Waiver of Common Stock Issuable

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2019,  the  Company  reversed  $1.5  million  of  expense  as  a  result  of  a  consultant  permanently  waiving  the
Company’s obligation to issue 200,000 shares owed to the consultant which were expensed in a prior period. No similar transaction occurred during the
year ended December 31, 2020.

Other Income

Other income increased during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 2019 as a result of the Company receiving a refund from a third-party
vendor pursuant to a release and settlement agreement of approximately $0.1 million for services provided in a previous year, partially offset by earning
lower interest in 2020 compared to 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity  is  the  ability  of  a  company  to  generate  funds  to  support  its  current  and  future  operations,  satisfy  its  obligations  and  otherwise  operate  on  an
ongoing basis.

We  incurred  a  net  loss  of  $12,099,159  and  $7,678,313  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  respectively.  Net  cash  used  in  operating
activities  was  $8,943,646  and  $5,384,656  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  respectively.  Since  inception,  we  have  funded  our
operations primarily with proceeds from the sales of our common stock and from the receipts of grants. As of December 31, 2020, we had cash and cash
equivalents of $22.0 million. We anticipate that operating losses and net cash used in operating activities will increase over the next few years as we
advance our products under development.

Our primary uses of capital are, and we expect will continue to be, third-party clinical and preclinical research and development services, costs incurred
to manufacture our drugs under development, compensation and related expenses, legal, patent and other regulatory expenses and general overhead
costs. We believe our use of CROs provides us with flexibility in managing our spending.

The Company incurs the majority of its research and development expenses in Australia and the United Kingdom. Fluctuations in the rate of exchange
between the United States dollar and the pound sterling as well as the Australian dollar could adversely affect our financial results, including our expenses
as  well  as  assets  and  liabilities.  We  currently  do  not  hedge  foreign  currencies  but  will  continue  to  assess  whether  that  strategy  is  appropriate.  As  of
December 31, 2020, the cash balance held by our foreign subsidiaries with currencies other than the United States dollar was approximately $0.6 million.
We do not have any material financial exposure to one customer or one country that would significantly hinder our liquidity.

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $33,375,340 and working capital of $22,209,460. Losses have principally occurred
as a result of stock-based compensation expense as well as the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products
which  included  the  general  and  administrative  expenses  associated  with  its  organization  and  product  development,  as  well  as  the  lack  of  sources  of
material revenues until such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. As of December 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $22.0
million. In addition, during January and February 2021, we raised an additional $29.0 million in gross proceeds through sales of common stock under the
ATM program. As such, we believe our cash and cash equivalents, including the proceeds received in January and February 2021, will be sufficient to
fund our operations for at least the next 12 months following the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Initial Public Offering

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering in which the Company sold 1,020,820 shares of its common
stock for gross proceeds of $8.2 million (net proceeds of $7.3 million).

April and May sale of common stock

During April and May 2019, the Company sold 522,212 shares of its common stock to certain investors for cash proceeds of $4.7 million, of which the
Company’s CEO purchased 11,100 shares for $0.1 million of cash and the Company’s CFO purchased 5,000 shares for $0.1 million of cash.

The Lincoln Park Transaction

On May 15, 2019, the Company entered into the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from us up to
an aggregate of $20.0 million of the Company’s common stock (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the 24-month term of the agreement.
The Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with Lincoln Park pursuant to which the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) the registration statement to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, the shares
of common stock that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement. The registration statement was effective as of July 2,
2019.

72

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As  a  result,  on  May  15,  2019,  70,000  newly  issued  shares  of  the  Company’s  common  stock  were  issued  to  Lincoln  Park  as  consideration  for  Lincoln
Park’s commitment to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock under the agreement, and 30,000 newly issued shares of common stock, valued
at $10.00 per share, were sold to Lincoln Park in an initial purchase for an aggregate gross purchase price of $0.3 million ($0.2 million net of offering
costs).  During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020,  the  Company  issued  196,000  shares  of  the  Company’s  common  stock  to  Lincoln  Park  for  gross
proceeds of $1,002,644.

Under  the  terms  and  subject  to  the  conditions  of  the  Lincoln  Park  Purchase  Agreement,  the  Company  has  the  right,  but  not  the  obligation,  to  sell  to
Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase up to, an additional $18.7 million worth of shares of the Company’s common stock. Such future
sales of common stock by the Company, if any, will be subject to certain limitations, and may occur from time to time, at the Company’s option, over the
24-month term of the agreement.

As contemplated by the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement, and so long as the closing price of the Company’s common stock exceeds $3.50 per share,
then the Company may direct Lincoln Park, at its sole discretion to purchase up to 20,000 shares of its common stock on any business day. The price per
share for such purchases will be equal to the lower of: (i) the lowest sale price on the applicable purchase date and (ii) the arithmetic average of the three
(3)  lowest  closing  sale  prices  for  the  Company’s  common  stock  during  the  twelve  (12)  consecutive  business  days  ending  on  the  business  day
immediately preceding such purchase date (in each case, to be appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock
split  or  other  similar  transaction  that  occurs  on  or  after  the  date  of  the  purchase  agreement).  The  maximum  amount  of  shares  subject  to  any  single
regular purchase increases as the Company’s share price increases, subject to a maximum of $1.0 million.

In  addition  to  regular  purchases,  the  Company  may  also  direct  Lincoln  Park  to  purchase  other  amounts  as  accelerated  purchases  or  as  additional
purchases if the closing sale price of the common stock exceeds certain threshold prices as set forth in the purchase agreement. There are no trading
volume requirements or restrictions under the purchase agreement nor any upper limits on the price per share that Lincoln Park must pay for shares of
common stock.

The Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement and the registration rights agreement contain customary representations, warranties, agreements and conditions
to  completing  future  sale  transactions,  indemnification  rights  and  obligations  of  the  parties.  The  Company  has  the  right  to  terminate  the  purchase
agreement  at  any  time,  at  no  cost  or  penalty.  During  any  “event  of  default”  under  the  purchase  agreement,  all  of  which  are  outside  of  Lincoln  Park’s
control, Lincoln Park does not have the right to terminate the purchase agreement; however, the Company may not initiate any regular or other purchase
of  shares  by  Lincoln  Park,  until  such  event  of  default  is  cured.  In  addition,  in  the  event  of  bankruptcy  proceedings  by  or  against  the  Company,  the
purchase agreement will automatically terminate.

Actual  sales  of  shares  of  common  stock  to  Lincoln  Park  under  the  purchase  agreement  will  depend  on  a  variety  of  factors  to  be  determined  by  the
Company from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the common stock and determinations by the Company as to
the appropriate sources of funding for the Company and its operations. Lincoln Park has no right to require any sales by the Company, but is obligated to
make purchases from the Company as it directs in accordance with the purchase agreement. Lincoln Park has covenanted not to cause or engage in
any manner whatsoever, any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of the Company’s shares.

ATM Sales Agreement

On April 16, 2020, we entered into a sales agreement with BTIG, as sales agent, to establish an ATM offering program. We were required to pay BTIG a
commission of 3%  of  the  gross  proceeds  from  the  sale  of  shares.  During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2020,  we  issued  and  sold  178,600  shares  of
common stock at an average price of $5.45 per share under the ATM program. The aggregate net proceeds were approximately $0.8 million after BTIG’s
commission and other offering expenses.

During  January  and  February  2021,  we  issued  and  sold  1,439,480  shares  of  common  stock  at  an  average  price  of  $20.17  per  share  under  the  ATM
program. The aggregate net proceeds were approximately $28.4 million after offering expenses.

Public Offering

During July 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering in which it sold 2,500,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of
$10.00 per share. The 2,500,000 shares sold included the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase 326,086 shares at a price of $10.00 per
share. Aggregate net proceeds from the underwritten public offering were approximately $23.1 million, net of approximately $1.9 million in underwriting
discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

Grants

During  2019,  the  Company  was  awarded  a  $1.0  million  grant  from  the  Alzheimer’s  Association  to  advance  XPro1595,  a  novel  therapy  targeting
neuroinflammation  as  a  cause  of  Alzheimer’s  disease.  The  endowment  was  awarded  under  the  Part  the  Cloud  to  RESCUE  grant.  During  the  years
ended  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  the  Company  received  $0.1  million  and  $0.9  million,  respectively,  related  to  the  grant,  which  the  Company
recorded as a reduction of research and development expense. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has received $1.0 million of cash proceeds from
the Alzheimer’s Association and no additional amounts are available to the Company pursuant to this grant.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company was awarded a $0.5 million grant from the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (“ALS”) Association
to  fund  a  study  of  the  efficacy  of  XPro1595  to  reverse  ALS  in  vitro  and  to  fund  a  study  of  the  efficacy  of  XPro1595  to  protect  against  ALS  model
phenotypes in vivo. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received $0.3 million of cash proceeds pursuant to this grant which the
Company recorded as deferred liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded $0.2 million as a reduction of research and
development expense related to the ALS grant. As of December 31, 2020, the Company recorded $0.1 million as deferred liabilities in the consolidated
balance sheet related to the ALS grant.

During September 2020, the Company was awarded a grant of up to $2.9 million from the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”). As of December 31, 2020,
the Company has not received any proceeds pursuant to this grant.

Our cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by our net loss.

Operating activities used $8.9 million of cash for the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily resulting from our net loss of $12.1 million, partially offset
by non-cash stock-based compensation charges of $3.1 million.

Operating  activities  used  $5.4  million  of  cash  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2019,  primarily  resulting  from  our  net  loss  of  $7.7  million,  a  net  cash
outflow  of  $0.3  million  for  changes  in  our  net  operating  assets  and  liabilities,  offset  by  non-cash  stock-based  compensation  charges  of  $4.1  million,
partially  offset  by  a  waiver  of  common  stock  issuable  of  $1.5  million.  The  change  in  our  net  operating  assets  and  liabilities  was  primarily  due  to  a
decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.2 million and a $0.1 million increase in prepaid expenses.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of
INmune Bio, Inc.
La Jolla, California

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of INmune Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,
and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the  financial  position  of  the  Company  as  of  December  31,  2020  and  2019,  and  the  results  of  its  operations  and  its  cash  flows  for  the  years  ended
December 31, 2020 and 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial
statements  based  on  our  audits.  We  are  a  public  accounting  firm  registered  with  the  Public  Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States)
(“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  PCAOB.  Those  standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audits  to  obtain
reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement,  whether  due  to  error  or  fraud.  The  Company  is  not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain
an  understanding  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the  effectiveness  of  the  Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and
performing  procedures  that  respond  to  those  risks.  Such  procedures  included  examining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  regarding  the  amounts  and
disclosures  in  the  financial  statements.  Our  audits  also  included  evaluating  the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

INMUNE BIO, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization and Business Overview

INmune Bio, Inc. (the “Company” or “INmune Bio”) was organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015, and is a clinical stage biotechnology
pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing its product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is not
functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune Bio has two product platforms. The DN-TNF product platform utilizes dominant-
negative technology to selectively neutralize soluble TNF, a key driver of innate immune dysfunction and mechanistic target of many diseases. DN-TNF is
currently being developed for COVID-19 complications (Quellor), cancer (INB03), Alzheimer’s and treatment resistant depression (XPro595), and NASH
(LIVNate).  The  Natural  Killer  Cell  Priming  Platform  includes  INKmune  aimed  at  priming  the  patient’s  NK  cells  to  eliminate  minimal  residual  disease  in
patients  with  cancer.  INmune  Bio’s  product  platforms  utilize  a  precision  medicine  approach  for  the  treatment  of  a  wide  variety  of  hematologic
malignancies, solid tumors and chronic inflammation.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(“US GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The  consolidated  financial  statements  herein  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  US  GAAP  and  include  the  accounts  of  INmune  Bio,  its  wholly-
owned  UK  subsidiary,  and  its  wholly-owned  Australia  subsidiary  (collectively,  the  “Company”).  All  significant  intercompany  accounts  and  transactions
have been eliminated.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $33,375,340 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses have principally
occurred  as  a  result  of  non-cash  stock-based  compensation  expense  and  the  substantial  resources  required  for  research  and  development  of  the
Company’s products, which included the general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the
lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’s products are commercialized.

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and achieve its business plan:

● During July 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering in which it sold 2,500,000 shares of common stock at a public offering
price of $10.00 per share. The 2,500,000 shares sold included the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase 326,086 shares at a price
of $10.00 per share. Aggregate net proceeds from the underwritten public offering were approximately $23.1 million, net of approximately $1.9
million in underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

● During April 2020, the Company entered into a sales agreement with BTIG, LLC (“BTIG”), as sales agent, to establish an At-The-Market  (“ATM”)
offering program. The Company was required to pay BTIG a commission of 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares. The ATM program
will remain in full force and effect until the earlier of the sale of all of the shares under the ATM program or the termination of the sales agreement
by the Company or BTIG. From April 2020 through December 2020, the Company sold 178,600 shares of common stock at an average price of
$5.45 per share for net proceeds of approximately $0.8 million. During January and February 2021, the Company sold in aggregate 1,439,480
shares on common stock at an average price of $20.17 per share for net proceeds of approximately $28.4 million.

F-6

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
● During  May  2019, the  Company  entered  into  a  securities  purchase  agreement  (“Purchase  Agreement”)  with  Lincoln  Park  Capital  Fund LLC
(“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $20.0 million of common stock
of the Company (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the Purchase Agreement. The extent we rely on Lincoln Park as
a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are
able  to  secure  working  capital  from  other  sources.  As  of  the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company has already
received approximately $1.3 million from the Purchase Agreement from the sale of 296,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park from the
inception of the Purchase Agreement through the date of issuance of this Form 10-K, leaving the Company an additional $18.7 million to draw
upon, subject to the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement.

Although it is difficult to predict the Company’s liquidity requirements, as of December 31, 2020, and based upon the Company’s current operating plan,
the Company believes that it will have sufficient cash to meet its projected operating requirements for at least the next 12 months following the filing date
of this Annual Report on Form 10-K based on the balance of cash available as of December 31, 2020 and the proceeds received from the Company’s
ATM sales during January and February 2021. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future as it continues
the development of its clinical drug candidates and preclinical programs and incurs additional costs associated with being a public company.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the
Company’s  business  is  highly  uncertain  and  difficult  to  predict.  Also,  economies  worldwide  have  also  been  negatively  impacted  by  the  COVID-19
pandemic, however policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole.
The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain.

In addition, the Company’s clinical trials have been affected by and may continue to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Clinical site initiation and
patient enrollment have and may continue to be delayed due to prioritization of hospital resources toward the COVID-19 pandemic. Some patients have
not and others may not be able to comply with clinical trial protocols if quarantines impede patient movement or interrupt healthcare services. Similarly,
the ability to recruit and retain patients and principal investigators and site staff who, as healthcare providers, may have heightened exposure to COVID-
19, may adversely impact the Company’s clinical trial operations.

The severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the
duration  and  severity  of  the  pandemic  and  the  extent  and  severity  of  the  impact  on  the  Company’s  service  providers,  suppliers,  contract  research
organizations (“CROs”) and the Company’s clinical trials, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. As of the date of issuance of Company’s
financial  statements,  the  extent  to  which  the  COVID-19  pandemic  may  materially  impact  the  Company’s  financial  condition,  liquidity  or  results  of
operations is uncertain.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three month s or less to be cash equivalents. The Company
holds cash in banks in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. However, the Company believes risk of loss is minimal as the
cash is held by large, highly-rated financial institutions.

Research and Development Tax Incentive Receivable

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia, participates in the Australian research and development tax incentive program, such that
a percentage of our qualifying research and development expenditures are reimbursed by the Australian government, and such incentives are reflected
as a reduction of research and development expense. The Australian research and development tax incentive is recognized when there is reasonable
assurance that the incentive will be received, the relevant expenditure has been incurred and the amount of the consideration can be reliably measured.
At each period end, management estimates the reimbursement available to the Company based on available information at the time.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary in the United Kingdom, participates in the research and development program provided by the United
Kingdom  tax  relief  program,  such  that  a  percentage  of  our  qualifying  research  and  development  expenditures  are  reimbursed  by  the  United  Kingdom
government, and such incentives are reflected as a reduction of research and development expense. The United Kingdom research and development tax
incentive  is  recognized  when  there  is  reasonable  assurance  that  the  incentive  will  be  received,  the  relevant  expenditure  has  been  incurred  and  the
amount of the consideration can be reliably measured. At each period end, management estimates the reimbursement available to the Company based
on available information at the time.

Intangible Assets

The Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with in-process research and development purchased from others if the asset has alternative uses
and  such  uses  are  not  restricted  under  applicable  license  agreements;  patent  applications  (principally  legal  fees),  patent  purchases,  and  trademarks
related  to  its  cell  line  as  intangible  assets.  Acquired  in-process  research  and  development  costs  that  do  not  have  alternative  uses  are  expensed  as
incurred.  Amortization  is  initiated  for  acquired  in-process  research  and  development  intangible  assets  when  their  useful  lives  have  been  determined.
These acquired in-process research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggering event occurs that could indicate
a potential impairment. No impairments of intangible assets were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

Basic  loss  per  share  is  computed  by  dividing  net  loss  available  to  common  shareholders  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  outstanding  common
shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share
excludes  all  potential  common  shares  if  their  effect  is  anti-dilutive.  For  all  periods  presented,  there  is  no  difference  in  the  number  of  shares  used  to
calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.

At  December  31,  2020,  the  Company  had  3,457,000  potentially  issuable  shares  of  common  stock  upon  the  exercise  of  stock  options  and  1,955,922
potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.

At  December  31,  2019,  the  Company  had  3,417,000  potentially  issuable  shares  of  common  stock  upon  the  exercise  of  stock  options  and  1,660,874
potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration the
Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue following the five-step model prescribed under
ASC Topic 606: (1) identify contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4)
allocate  the  transaction  price  to  the  performance  obligations  in  the  contract;  and  (5)  recognize  revenues  when  (or  as)  the  Company  satisfies  the
performance obligations. The Company records the expenses related to revenue in research and development expense, in the periods such expenses
were incurred.

F-8

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of performance, including amounts which are refundable.

The Company’s 2020 revenue was from the sale of MSC’s to one third-party customer. The revenue was recognized when the MSC’s were shipped to
the customer.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards at the date of grant, which requires the
input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the
measure  of  estimated  fair  value  of  our  share-based  compensation.  These  assumptions  are  subjective  and  generally  require  significant  analysis  and
judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, or determined from, external data and other assumptions
may  be  derived  from  our  historical  experience  with  stock-based  payment  arrangements.  The  appropriate  weight  to  place  on  historical  experience  is  a
matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances. The Company accounts for forfeitures of stock options as they occur.

Research and Development

Research and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as a reduction of
research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stock-based compensation, costs of
preclinical studies, clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead
costs, regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities on the
Company’s behalf.

The Company recognizes grants as contra research and development expense in the consolidated statement of operations on a systematic basis over
the periods in which the entity recognizes as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the  estimated  tax  consequences  attributable  to  differences  between  the  financial  statement  carrying  values  and  their  respective  income  tax  basis
(temporary  differences).  The  effect  on  deferred  income  tax  assets  and  liabilities  of  a  change  in  tax  rates  is  recognized  in  income  in  the  period  that
includes the enactment date.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functional currencies are
the  U.S.  Dollar  for  its  U.S.  based  operations,  British  Pound  (“GBP”)  for  its  United  Kingdom-based  operations  and  Australian  Dollars  (“AUD”)  for  its
Australian-based operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, stockholders’ equity is translated at
historical  rates  and  statement  of  operations  items  are  translated  at  the  weighted  average  exchange  rate  for  the  period.  The  resulting  translation
adjustments  are  reported  under  other  comprehensive  income.  Gains  and  losses  resulting  from  the  translations  of  foreign  currency  transactions  and
balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

There were various accounting standards and interpretations issued recently, none of which are expected to a have a material impact on the Company´s
consolidated financial position, operations, or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.

NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY

According to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&D subject to
certain  requirements.  The  Company’s  UK  subsidiary  submits  R&D  tax  credit  requests  annually  for  research  and  development  expenses  incurred.  At
December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded a research and development tax credit receivable of $833,024 and $395,850, respectively for R&D
expenses incurred in the UK. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company received $305,593 and $443,929 of R&D tax credit
reimbursements, respectively from the UK.

According to AUS tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in AUS for expenses incurred in R&D subject to
certain requirements. The Company’s Australian subsidiary submits R&D tax credit requests annually for research and development expenses incurred.
At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded a research and development tax credit receivable of $853,041 and $172,289, respectively, for
R&D expenses incurred in Australia. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company received $178,029 and $410,857 of R&D tax
credit reimbursements, respectively from Australia.

Xencor, Inc. License Agreement

On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement (“Xencor License Agreement”) with Xencor, Inc. (“Xencor”), which has discovered
and  developed  a  proprietary  biological  molecule  that  inhibits  soluble  tumor  necrosis  factor.  Pursuant  to  the  license  agreement,  Xencor  granted  the
Company an exclusive worldwide, royalty-bearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed know-how and licensed materials (as defined in the license
agreement) to make, develop, use, sell and import any pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein that
inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis
factor)  alone  or  in  combination  with  one  or  more  active  ingredients,  in  any  dosage  or  formulation  (“Licensed  Products”).  The  Company  refers  to  this
licensed  protein  as  DN-TNF  and  the  Company  has  labeled  it  as  XPro1595  for  the  Company’s  Alzheimer’s  and  Treatment  Resistant  Depression
indications, Quellor for the COVID-19 indication and LIVNate for the NASH indication. The Company believes the protein has numerous other medical
applications.  Such  additional  alternative  applications  of  the  technology  are  available  under  the  license  agreement.  In  connection  with  the  license
agreement,  the  Company  paid  Xencor  a  one-time  non-creditable  and  non-refundable  fee  of  $100,000  and  issued  Xencor  1,585,000  shares  of  the
Company’s common stock with a fair value of $12,221,000. In addition, the Company issued Xencor fully vested warrants with a fair value of $4,193,000
to purchase an additional number of shares of common stock equal to 10% of the fully diluted company shares immediately following such purchase. The
warrants have an exercise price based on a valuation of the Company at $100,000,000 and expire on October 3, 2023. The aggregate purchase price for
the  full  exercise  of  the  option  is  $10,000,000  which  purchase  price  shall  be  pro-rated  for  any  partial  exercise  of  the  Warrant.  In  August  2018,  the
Company entered into a First Amendment to Stock Issuance Agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, the purchase price for the additional shares may
only be paid by cash.

The Company recorded $16,514,000 for the acquisition of intangible assets for the in-process research and development as the fair value of the cash,
stock  and  warrants  on  the  date  of  the  License  Agreement  acquisition  in  accordance  with  Accounting  Standards  Codification  730  – Research  and
Development. The Company has the license rights to pursue alternative applications of the technology as part of its future development plans.

The Company also agreed to pay Xencor a royalty on Net Sales of all Licensed Products in a given calendar year, which are payable on a country-by-
country and licensed product by licensed product basis until the date that is the later of (a) the expiration of the last to expire valid claim covering such
Licensed Product in such country or (b) ten years following the first sale to a third party of the licensed product in such country. The Company had no
sales of Licensed Products during 2020.

Under the Xencor License Agreement, the Company also agreed to pay Xencor a percentage of any sublicensing revenue that it receives.

INKmune License Agreement

On  October  29,  2015,  the  Company  entered  into  an  exclusive  license  agreement  (the  “INKmune  License  Agreement”)  with  Immune  Ventures,  LLC
(“Immune Ventures”). Pursuant to the INKmune License Agreement, the Company was granted exclusive worldwide rights to the patents, including rights
to  incorporate  any  improvements  or  additions  to  the  patents  that  may  be  developed  in  the  future.  In  consideration  for  the  patent  rights,  the  Company
agreed to the following milestone payments (of which none have been met as of December 31, 2020):

Each Phase I initiation
Each Phase II initiation

In addition, the Company agreed to pay the licensor a royalty of 1% of net sales during the life of each patent granted to the Company. The License is
owned  by  Immune  Ventures.  RJ  Tesi,  the  Company’s  President  and  a  member  of  our  Board  of  Directors,  David  Moss,  its  Chief  Financial  Officer  and
Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, its Chief Scientific Officer, are the owners of Immune Ventures. As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no sales
had occurred under this license.

The term of the agreement began on October 29, 2015 and, if not terminated sooner pursuant to the agreement, ends on a country-by-country basis on
the date of the expiration of the last to expire patent rights where patent rights exists. Upon the termination of the agreement we shall have a fully paid
up, perpetual, royalty-free license without further obligation to Immune Ventures. The agreement can be terminated by Immune Ventures if, after 60 days
from  the  Company’s  receipt  of  notice  that  the  Company  has  not  made  a  payment  under  the  agreement,  and  the  Company  still  does  not  make  this
payment. On July 20, 2018, the parties amended the agreement under which the Company was required achieve milestones pursuant to the agreement.
On October 30, 2020, the parties executed an additional amendment to the agreement under which the Company is required to achieve the following
milestones:

Initiation of Phase 1 clinical or equivalent trials by October 29, 2021

Initiation of Phase II clinical trials or equivalent by October 29, 2023

Initiation of Phase III clinical trials or equivalent by October 29, 2025

Filing of NDA or equivalent by October 29, 2026 or equivalent

If  the  Company  doesn’t  achieve  the  above  milestones,  it  is  required  to  negotiate  in  good  faith  with  Immune  Ventures  to  determine  how  it  can  either
remedy the failure or achieve an alternate development. If the Company fails to make any required efforts, or if the efforts do not remedy the situation
within 60 days of written notice by Immune Ventures, then Immune Ventures may provide notice to terminate the license or convert it to a non-exclusive
license.

University of Pittsburg License Agreement

On  October  3,  2017,  the  Company  entered  into  an  Assignment  and  Assumption  Agreement  with  Immune  Ventures  related  to  intellectual  property
licensed  from  the  University  of  Pittsburgh.  Pursuant  to  the  Assignment  and  Assumption  Agreement  (“Assignment  Agreement”),  Immune  Ventures
assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under an Exclusive License Agreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth
System of Higher Education (“Licensor”) and Immune Ventures to INmune Bio (“Licensee”), (the “PITT Agreement”).

Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase, up to $20.0 million in shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations, from time to

$3.50 per share, then the Company may, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, direct Lincoln Park, at its sole discretion to purchase up
to 20,000 shares of its common stock on any business day. The purchase price will be based on the market prices of the common stock at the time of
such purchases as set forth in the securities purchase agreement.

In addition to regular purchases, the Company may, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, also direct Lincoln Park to purchase other
amounts as accelerated purchases or as additional purchases if the closing sale price of the common stock exceeds certain threshold prices as set forth

approximately $230,000 based on the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The Company accounted for the exchange of the

exceeded the fair value of the shares issued.

purchase right (each, a “Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock held by stockholders as of the close of business on January
11,  2021.  When  exercisable,  each  right  initially  would  represent  the  right  to  purchase  from  the  Company  one  one-thousandth  of  a  share  of  a  newly
designated series of preferred stock, Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company, at an exercise price of
$300.00  per  one  one-thousandth  of  a  Series  A  Junior  Participating  Preferred  Share,  subject  to  adjustment.  Subject  to  various  exceptions,  the  Rights
become exercisable in the event any person (excluding certain exempted or grandfathered persons) becomes the beneficial owner of twenty percent or
more of the Company’s common stock without the approval of the Board. The Rights are scheduled to expire on December 30, 2021.

At December 31, 2020, the Company had a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $10.5 million. The net operating loss carryforwards
for 2017 will begin to expire in the year ending December 31, 2037. The net operating loss carryforwards starting in 2018 have no expiration. The change
in the valuation allowance was $1,638,407 during the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company recognizes uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the tax
positions  will  be  sustained  upon  examination  by  tax  authorities.  For  those  tax  positions  that  meet  the  more-likely-than  not  recognition  threshold,  we
recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2020, and
2019,  the  Company  has  no  significant  uncertain  tax  positions.  There  are  no  unrecognized  tax  benefits  included  on  the  balance  sheet  that  would,  if
recognized, impact the effective tax rate. The Company does not anticipate there will be a significant change in unrecognized tax benefits within the next
12 months.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls
and  procedures  as  of  December  31,  2020.  The  term  “disclosure  controls  and  procedures,”  as  defined  in  Rules  13a-15(e)  and  15d-15(e)  under  the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company 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 information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated,
can  provide  only  reasonable  assurance  of  achieving  their  objectives  and  management  necessarily  applies  its  judgment  in  evaluating  the  cost-benefit
relationship  of  possible  controls  and  procedures.  Based  on  the  evaluation,  our  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer  concluded  that  our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2020.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

Our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting
for as long as we are an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the provisions of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our  CEO  and  our  CFO  are  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining  adequate  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  as  such  term  is  defined  in
Exchange  Act  Rules  13a-15(f).  Management  conducted  an  assessment  of  the  effectiveness  of  our  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of
December 31, 2020. In making this assessment, management used the criteria described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission  (“COSO”).  Our  management  concluded  that  our  internal  controls  over  financial
reporting were effective based on those criteria, as of December 31, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During 2020, we engaged qualified accounting consultants to remediate the risks related to inadequate segregation of duties.
