Shareholders voted in favour of each resolution put forth at the Meeting.

Additional information regarding the Consolidation is contained in the Circular and the Company’s press release dated August 21, 2026.

Notes:

1. Approved by a majority of the votes cast by disinterested Shareholders. 7,580,000 Shares held by persons ineligible to vote on the Plan resolution were excluded from the vote.

“We appreciate the support provided by Shareholders for this enabling step in NurExone’s capital-markets strategy,” said Yoram Drucker, Chairman of the Board. “Approval of the Consolidation Resolution provides the Board with flexibility to evaluate market conditions, trading performance and potential U.S. exchange-listing requirements before determining whether, when and at what ratio to implement the Consolidation.”

Shareholder approval authorizes the Board, in its sole discretion, to implement a Consolidation of up to 30 pre-Consolidation Shares for each one post-Consolidation Share at any time within 36 months following approval of the Consolidation Resolution, subject to acceptance of the TSXV and receipt of all other required approvals. Shareholder approval does not require the Board to proceed, and the Board may revoke the Consolidation Resolution or elect not to implement the Consolidation. Any potential U.S. listing would remain subject to further Board approval, acceptance of the TSXV and the applicable U.S. stock exchange, satisfaction of applicable listing standards, regulatory review, market conditions and receipt of all other required approvals.

If implemented by the Board, the exercise prices and numbers of Shares issuable under the Company’s outstanding options, restricted share units, warrants and other securities exercisable, settleable or convertible into Shares will be proportionately adjusted in accordance with their terms.

Shareholders are not required to take any action at this time. If and when the Board determines to implement the Consolidation, further details regarding the timing, final ratio and mechanics will be announced in a subsequent news release. No fractional Shares will be issued in connection with the Consolidation, and any fractional Share that would otherwise result from the Consolidation will be rounded down to the nearest whole Share, as described in the Circular.

Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual events or results to differ materially, including, without limitation: the risk that the Board elects not to proceed with the Consolidation or selects a different timing or ratio than anticipated; the risk that required regulatory approvals or acceptance of the TSXV are not obtained; the risk that the Consolidation does not result in a proportionate or sustained increase in the market price of the Shares; the risk that the Consolidation adversely affects trading liquidity or shareholder participation; the risk that the Consolidation does not improve marketability, broaden investor interest or facilitate future financing or capital-markets initiatives; the risk that the Company does not pursue or complete a U.S. exchange listing or satisfy applicable initial or continued listing requirements; the risk that the Acorn engagement does not commence or continue as contemplated; the risk that Acorn’s services do not increase market awareness or result in any anticipated benefit; financing and market risks; regulatory and execution risks; early-stage development risks; the risk that preclinical results are not predictive of clinical outcomes; manufacturing, regulatory, intellectual-property, competition and technological-change risks; and the risks described in the Company’s continuous disclosure filings available under the Company’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

No final decision has been made to implement the Consolidation or pursue any U.S. exchange listing, registration statement, financing or other capital-markets transaction. Any potential U.S. listing would remain subject to further Board approval, applicable Canadian and U.S. regulatory requirements, acceptance of the TSXV and the applicable U.S. stock exchange, satisfaction of all applicable listing standards, market conditions and other customary considerations.
