"This enables us strategic flexibility post data readouts expected later this year for our INBRX-109 and INBRX-106 programs," said Kelly Deck, Chief Financial Officer of Inhibrx. "Oxford has been a great partner to Inhibrx throughout its evolution as a company and we are pleased to continue the relationship." "We are proud to further our long-standing partnership with Inhibrx," said Christopher Herr, Senior Managing Director at Oxford. "The INBRX-109 and INBRX-106 programs have shown highly promising clinical results, and we look forward to supporting Inhibrx as it advances its pipeline and further develops these innovative therapies." The Credit Facility closed on January 13, 2025 (the "Closing Date"). Pursuant to the LSA, the Company received an initial Term Loan of $100 million funded on the Closing Date.

As part of the agreement, Inhibrx also issued to the Lenders warrants to purchase an aggregate of 140,741 shares of Inhibrx's common stock, which is equal to 2% of the value of the initial term loan divided by a strike price of $14.21 per share. Additional warrants will become issuable in connection with any additional funding by the Lenders. About Inhibrx Biosciences, Inc.

Inhibrx Biosciences utilizes diverse methods of protein engineering to address the specific requirements of complex target and disease biology, including its proprietary protein engineering platforms. Inhibrx Biosciences was incorporated in January 2024 as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Inhibrx, Inc. Prior to the sale of Inhibrx, Inc. and the INBRX-101 program to Sanofi S.A., Inhibrx Biosciences acquired certain corporate infrastructure and other assets and liabilities through a series of internal restructuring transactions effected by Inhibrx, Inc. Inhibrx, Inc. also completed a distribution to holders of its shares of common stock of 92% of the issued and outstanding shares of Inhibrx Biosciences. Following such transactions, Inhibrx Biosciences' current clinical pipeline of therapeutic candidates includes ozekibart (INBRX-109) and INBRX-106, both of which utilize multivalent formats where the precise valency can be optimized in a target-centric way to mediate what we believe to be the most appropriate agonist function.
