CONTENTS

Completion of Merger Transaction

On October 30, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), NLS Pharmaceutics Ltd., a corporation incorporated under the laws of Switzerland (“NLS” or the “Company”), completed the previously announced transaction with Kadimastem Ltd., an Israeli company (“Kadimastem”), pursuant to the Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of November 4, 2024, and as amended from time to time (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Kadimastem and NLS Pharmaceutics (Israel) Ltd., an Israeli company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).

In connection with the Merger, the Registrant effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company’s common shares, preferred shares and preferred participation certificates (the “Reverse Share Split”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including the Merger and the Reverse Stock Split) were approved by the Company’s shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on September 29, 2025.

As part of the closing of the Merger, holders of common shares, preferred shares, preferred certificates and warrants of NLS at the time of the Merger also received contingent value rights with respect to future net proceeds, if any, from the disposition of certain legacy assets of the Company (including Mazindol ER, but excluding the DOXA platform).

Further, in connection with the Merger, the Company changed its name to “NewcelX Ltd.” and the business conducted by the Company has been combined with that of Kadimastem, creating an integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of cell-based and small-molecule therapies for neurodegenerative and metabolic diseases.
