LETTER FROM OUR CEO

Dear fellow stockholders,

As we reflect on 2025 and look ahead to 2026 and beyond, Nurix enters its next chapter with a pivotal development program in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) underway. In addition, we are expanding opportunities in inflammation and immunology (I&I) and deepening our partnered pipeline. Our focus remains clear: to establish degrader-based medicines at the forefront of patient care in oncology and autoimmune disease.

Tremendous Progress in 2025: From Proof of Concept to Pivotal Trials

2025 marked a year of strategic transition for Nurix as bexobrutideg, our lead Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) degrader, advanced from clinical proof of concept into registrational development in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the most common leukemia in adults. At the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, we presented maturing Phase 1a/1b data in heavily pretreated CLL patients that underscore bexobrutideg’s potential best-in-class profile.

In the Phase 1a cohort that consisted of patients who had received many prior lines of treatment, bexobrutideg achieved a remarkable objective response rate (ORR) of 83.0%, including two complete responses, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 22.1 months and a median duration of response of 20.1 months across all doses tested. Data from the randomized Phase 1b cohort comparing 200 mg and 600 mg once-daily dosing demonstrated higher response rates and a favorable trend toward longer PFS at the 600 mg dose. These results supported the 600 mg dose as the recommended Phase 2 dose in accordance with FDA’s Project Optimus. Importantly, bexobrutideg was well tolerated, demonstrating a consistent safety profile across dose levels, with no dose-limiting toxicities, no systemic fungal infections, and no Grade 4 infections.

We also reported encouraging Phase 1 data in Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM), a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, achieving a 75.0% ORR with a median follow-up of 8.1 months. Notably, neither median duration of response nor PFS had been reached, indicating that patients continue to benefit from therapy over time. Collectively, these results position bexobrutideg as a potentially transformative once-daily, oral therapy for patients with B-cell malignancies.

Beyond bexobrutideg, we continued to advance our broader oncology pipeline, reflecting Nurix’s ability to apply its degrader expertise across multiple programs. Zelebrudomide, our dual BTK and cereblon neosubstrate degrader, progressed through dose escalation with the new chirally controlled drug form. NX-1607, our oral CBL-B inhibitor, generated additional monotherapy signals of efficacy with a disease control rate of 49.3% across doses and tumor types as well as supportive translational data in solid tumors, demonstrating dose-dependent target engagement and peripheral immune activation.

DAYBreak™ and the Path to Registration

The DAYBreak-201 Phase 2 study in relapsed/refractory CLL is designed as a pivotal trial to support accelerated approval in the United States. It is enrolling adult patients who have progressed after all approved agents, including a covalent BTK inhibitor, a BCL-2 inhibitor, and a non-covalent BTK inhibitor. These patients currently have few meaningful treatment options remaining.

We also announced plans for DAYBreak-306, a Phase 3 trial that will test bexobrutideg head-to-head against the latest approved BTK non-covalent inhibitor, pirtobrutinib. The trial is designed to not only enable full approval of bexobrutideg in the United States and other major markets, but also to generate practice-changing data that compares the removal of cancer-driving proteins versus merely inhibiting its enzymatic function.

STAT6 and IRAK4: Building a Differentiated I&I Portfolio

STAT6 is a key transcription factor regulating Type 2 inflammation. Our collaboration with Sanofi is focused on targeted degradation of STAT6 as an approach to modulating IL-4/IL-13–driven pathways compared with antibody or inhibitor strategies. In 2025, Sanofi exercised its option to extend its license for our STAT6 program, including on a development candidate, NX-3911, which currently is in investigational new drug (IND) enabling studies.

IRAK4 is a key kinase that regulates immune cell activity. In 2025, GS-6791 demonstrated potent and sustained IRAK4 degradation, robust inhibition of IL-1 and IL-36 signaling, and meaningful efficacy in an animal model of

TABLE OF CONTENTS

atopic dermatitis. Gilead and Nurix presented this preclinical data at the 2025 European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology Congress. Also in 2025, GS-6791 began a comprehensive, first-in-human Phase 1 study in healthy volunteers.

Financial Strength and Operational Discipline

We ended fiscal 2025 with $592.9 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. In October 2025, we completed a $250.0 million underwritten registered offering with participation from leading healthcare-focused institutional investors, significantly strengthening our balance sheet and enabling accelerated execution across pivotal clinical programs and pipeline expansion.

Throughout 2025, our collaborations with Gilead, Sanofi, and Pfizer continued to validate the breadth and scalability of our DEL-AI™ platform while providing meaningful nondilutive capital. In 2025, we recognized $84.0 million in revenue from these partners and remain eligible for up to $6.1 billion in future fees and milestones, plus royalties on product sales. In oncology, our Degrader Antibody Conjugate (DAC) collaboration with Pfizer achieved multiple preclinical milestones that demonstrated the feasibility of DACs as a next-generation antibody-drug conjugate modality. In all our collaborations, we maintain highly valuable option rights to join our partners in co-development and co-commercialization in the United States, rights that are triggered after clinical data is obtained from trials funded and managed by our partners. Such optionality provides us with the ability to selectively and cost-effectively develop our product pipeline in alignment with established leaders in the fields of oncology and I&I.

Looking Ahead to 2026: Advancing to Phase 3 in Oncology and Expanding into I&I

The central theme for 2026 is advancing bexobrutideg to Phase 3 while also broadening the bexobrutideg clinical program to include selected I&I indications. BTK sits at a critical intersection of B-cell receptor, toll-like receptor, and Fc-receptor signaling, making it a compelling target in antibody-mediated autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. While existing BTK inhibitors validate aspects of this biology, they address only the kinase function of BTK and may be limited by off-target effects.

Bexobrutideg is designed to catalytically degrade BTK, eliminating both its kinase and scaffolding functions and enabling deeper and more durable pathway suppression at low, free plasma concentrations. We believe this profile may offer a more effective and safe therapeutic option for chronic autoimmune diseases where sustained control of pathogenic B-cell and myeloid signaling must be balanced with long-term tolerability.

2026 Catalysts and Strategic Priorities

As we enter 2026, our focus centers on four major priorities:

•	Bexobrutideg in CLL: Execute the DAYBreak-201 and DAYBreak-306 studies towards registration for CLL in multiple major markets.

•	Bexobrutideg in I&I: Complete the new tablet formulation single ascending dose / multiple ascending dose (SAD/MAD) study and file an IND in a selected I&I indication.

•	I&I Collaborations: Support advancement of Sanofi’s STAT6 degrader and Gilead’s IRAK4 degrader as they progress through IND-enabling and early clinical evaluation.

•	Pipeline and Platform: Define expansion paths for zelebrudomide and NX-1607 in high-value oncology indications and continue advancing DEL-AI–derived programs, including DACs with Pfizer, toward development candidate selection.

Closing Thoughts

Nurix was founded on science that demonstrated the potential to selectively alter protein levels within the cell. After over a decade of applying rigorous scientific principles of drug discovery, we believe we are approaching an inflection point in our efforts to develop innovative, targeted protein degradation drugs to treat serious disease. We have a deep appreciation for all who have supported these efforts: the patients and families who participate in our trials, the investigators and study staff who partner with us, our corporate collaborators, our employees, and our stockholders. We expect 2026 will be a significant year for Nurix as we progress our clinical trials with the ultimate goal of delivering new therapies for patients in need. We look forward to sharing our progress as these therapies advance toward patients.

Sincerely,

Arthur T. Sands, M.D., Ph.D.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE MEETING

Purpose of the Meeting

At the meeting, stockholders will act upon the proposals described in this proxy statement. In addition, we will consider any other matters that are properly presented for a vote at the meeting. We are not aware of any other matters to be submitted for consideration at the meeting. If any other matters are properly presented for a vote at the meeting, the persons named in the proxy, who are officers of the company, have the authority in their discretion to vote the shares represented by the proxy.

Record Date; Quorum

Only holders of record of Nurix common stock at the close of business on March 20, 2026, the record date, will be entitled to vote at the meeting. At the close of business on March 20, 2026, a total of 103,405,813 shares of Nurix common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote.

The holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting as of the record date must be present or represented by proxy at the meeting in order to hold the meeting and conduct business. This presence is called a quorum. Your shares are counted as present at the meeting if you are present and vote online at the virtual meeting or if you have properly submitted a proxy in advance of the meeting. Abstentions, withhold votes, and broker non-votes are counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GENERAL PROXY INFORMATION

Voting Rights; Required Vote

Each holder of shares of Nurix common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held as of the close of business on the record date, March 20, 2026. You may vote all shares owned by you as of such date, including (1) shares held directly in your name as the stockholder of record and (2) shares held for you as the beneficial owner in street name through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee. Dissenters’ rights are not applicable to any of the matters being voted on.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If on March 20, 2026, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, then you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the meeting or vote in advance through the internet or by telephone, or if you request to receive paper proxy materials by mail, you may vote by filling out and returning the proxy card.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Nominee

If on March 20, 2026, your shares were held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of the shares held in street name. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote the shares held in your account, and your nominee has enclosed or provided voting instructions for you to use in directing it on how to vote your shares. However, the organization that holds your shares is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. Because you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from the organization that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

Required Vote

Ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2026, will be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter that are present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and are voted either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the proposal.

Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers will be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter that are present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and are voted either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the proposal.

Recommendations of the Board of Directors on Each of the Proposals Scheduled to be Voted on at the Meeting

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR ALL” nominees for the election of the Class III directors named in this proxy statement (Proposal 1); “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2026 (Proposal 2); and “FOR” the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement (Proposal 3).

None of the directors or executive officers has any substantial interest in any matter to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting, other than Proposal 3 and elections to office with respect to the Class III directors nominated in Proposal 1.

Abstentions; Withholding; Broker Non-Votes

Abstentions occur when shares present at the Annual Meeting are marked “Abstain.” Under Delaware law, abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present but are voted neither “for” or “against” a matter. Accordingly, at the Annual Meeting, abstentions will have no effect on Proposals 1, 2 or 3.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

A proxy submitted by a stockholder may indicate that the shares represented by the proxy are not being voted with respect to one or more directors (stockholder withholding). In addition, a broker may not be permitted to vote shares held by a customer in street name on a particular matter in the absence of instructions from the beneficial owner of the stock (broker non-vote). Broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted because the broker did not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner and lacked discretionary authority to vote the shares without instruction. The shares subject to a proxy which are not being voted on a particular matter because of either stockholder withholding or broker non-votes will count for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting, but will not be treated as votes cast and, therefore, will have no effect on Proposals 1 or 3.

Brokers have limited discretionary authority to vote shares that are beneficially owned. While a broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on “routine” matters without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on “non-routine” matters absent instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares. At our Annual Meeting, only Proposal 2 is considered a routine matter; accordingly, brokers have discretionary authority to vote shares that are beneficially owned on Proposal 2 without instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares. If a broker chooses not to vote shares for or against Proposal 2, it will have no effect because it will not be treated as a vote cast for or against the matter. The other proposals presented at the Annual Meeting, Proposals 1 and 3, are non-routine matters; accordingly, brokers do not have discretionary authority to vote shares that are beneficially owned by their customers on Proposals 1 or 3 without instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares. However, broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposals 1 and 3 because they will not be treated as a vote cast for or against the matter.

If you hold your shares in street name, it is critical that you cast your vote if you want it to count on all matters to be decided at the Annual Meeting.

Voting Instructions; Voting of Proxies

If you are a stockholder of record, you may:

•

vote online at the Annual Meeting — attend the Annual Meeting online and follow the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NRIX2026. You will need the control number included on your proxy card or voting instruction form, or included in the e-mail to you if you received the proxy materials by email;

•	vote through the internet — in order to do so, please go to www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions shown on your proxy card;

•	vote by telephone — in order to do so, please call the toll-free number 1-800-690-6903 and follow the instructions shown on your proxy card; or

•	vote by mail — if you request or receive a paper proxy card by mail, simply complete, sign and date the proxy card and return it as soon as possible before the meeting in the envelope provided.

Votes submitted through the internet or by telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 14, 2026. Submitting your proxy, whether by telephone, through the internet or by mail if you requested or received a paper proxy card, will not affect your right to vote online should you decide to attend the virtual meeting.

If you are not the stockholder of record, and hold your shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, please refer to the voting instructions provided by your brokerage firm, bank or nominee to direct how to vote your shares.

For Proposal 1, you may vote “FOR ALL,” “WITHHOLD ALL,” or vote “FOR ALL EXCEPT” one or more of the nominees to the Board of Directors you specify. For Proposals 2 and 3, you may vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” from voting. Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure that your vote is counted.

All proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions specified on the proxy card. If you sign a physical proxy card and return it without instructions as to how your shares should be voted on a particular proposal at the Annual Meeting, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors stated above.

If you do not vote and you hold your shares in street name, and your broker does not have discretionary power to vote your shares, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes” (as described above) and will not be counted in

TABLE OF CONTENTS

determining the number of shares necessary for approval of the proposals. However, shares that constitute broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of establishing a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

If you receive more than one proxy card, your shares are either registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. To make certain all of your shares are voted, please follow the instructions included on each proxy card or provided by your broker, bank or other nominee and vote each proxy card or voting instruction form through the internet, by telephone or by mail. If you requested or received paper proxy materials by mail, please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card or voting instruction form to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Expenses of Soliciting Proxies

We will pay the expenses associated with soliciting proxies. Following the original distribution and mailing of the solicitation materials, we or our agents may solicit proxies by mail, email, telephone, facsimile, by other similar means, or in person. Our directors, officers and other employees, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies personally or in writing, by telephone, email or otherwise. Following the original distribution and mailing of the solicitation materials, we will request brokers, custodians, nominees and other record holders to forward copies of those materials to persons for whom they hold shares and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, we, upon the request of the record holders, will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses. If you choose to access the proxy materials and/or vote through the internet, you are responsible for any internet access charges you may incur.

Revocability of Proxies

A stockholder of record who has given a proxy may revoke it at any time before the closing of the polls by the inspector of elections at the Annual Meeting by:

•	delivering to our Secretary (by any means, including facsimile) a written notice stating that the proxy is revoked;

•	signing and delivering a proxy bearing a later date;

•	voting again through the internet or by telephone; or

•	attending and voting online at the Annual Meeting by following the instructions posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NRIX2026 (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).

Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, and you wish to revoke a proxy, you must contact that firm to revoke or change any prior voting instructions.

Voting Results

Voting results will be tabulated and certified by the inspector of elections appointed for the Annual Meeting. We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we will file a Current Report on Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

Board Composition and Leadership Structure

The positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chair of our Board of Directors are held by two different individuals (Arthur T. Sands and Julia P. Gregory, respectively). This structure allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on our day-to-day business while our Chair leads our Board of Directors in its fundamental role of providing advice to, and independent oversight of, management. We believe Ms. Gregory’s industry leadership and expertise in strategy development and implementation, business development and investment banking provide her with the expertise and judgment necessary to effectively oversee our company, our key risks, business strategy and management. Our Board of Directors believes such separation is appropriate at this time, as it enhances the accountability of the Chief Executive Officer to the Board of Directors and strengthens the independence of the Board of Directors from management.

Board Structure

Our Board of Directors is divided into three classes, with each class serving staggered three-year terms, so that approximately one-third of the directors stand for election each year. In the pharmaceutical industry, the extended timeline for drug development—often spanning a decade or more from discovery through regulatory approval—requires directors with deep institutional knowledge who can pursue long-term strategies without undue pressure to prioritize short-term results. A classified board supports this by providing continuity and stability of leadership, ensuring that at any given time a majority of directors have meaningful experience with our pipeline, regulatory history, and strategic direction. This structure also strengthens the Board of Directors’ ability to negotiate effectively on behalf of stockholders in the event of an unsolicited acquisition proposal, as it prevents an acquirer from gaining control of the Board of Directors in a single election cycle, affording the Board of Directors additional time to evaluate strategic options and maximize long-term stockholder value. The Board of Directors regularly evaluates its governance practices and believes this structure currently serves the best interests of our company and our stockholders.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors believes that open communication between management and the Board of Directors is essential for effective risk management and oversight. Our Board of Directors meets with our Chief Executive Officer and other members of the senior management team at quarterly meetings of the Board of Directors, where, among other topics, they discuss strategy and risks in the context of reports from the management team and evaluate the risks inherent in significant transactions. While our Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for risk oversight, our Board committees assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in certain areas of risk. The Audit Committee assists our Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management in the areas of major financial risk exposures, internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance and cybersecurity and data privacy. The Compensation Committee assists our Board of Directors in assessing risks created by the incentives inherent in our compensation policies. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists our Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of corporate governance, corporate responsibility and sustainability risks. The Clinical and Commercialization Committee assists our Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to our scientific integrity, our research platform and programs, and our clinical development and commercialization strategies, programs and opportunities.

Cybersecurity Risk Oversight

Securing the information of the participants in our clinical trials, employees, partners, and other third parties is important to us. We have adopted physical, technological, and administrative controls on data security, and have a

TABLE OF CONTENTS

defined procedure for data incident detection, containment, response, and remediation. While everyone at the company plays a part in managing these risks, oversight responsibility is shared by our Board of Directors, our Audit Committee, and management. Our management team provides regular cybersecurity updates in the form of written reports and presentations to our Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee also reviews metrics about cyber threat response preparedness, program maturity milestones, risk mitigation status, and the current and emerging threat landscape. Our Audit Committee reports to our Board of Directors regarding its activities, including those related to key cybersecurity risks, mitigation strategies and ongoing developments. We also maintain information security risk insurance coverage. We have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents.

Director Independence

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. Under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq), independent directors must constitute a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the Nasdaq listing rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees must be an “independent director.” Under the Nasdaq listing rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Additionally, compensation committee members must not have a relationship with the listed company that is material to the director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member.

Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors or any other board committee: (i) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director and considered whether each director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. As a result of this review, our Board of Directors determined that Julia P. Gregory, Roy D. Baynes, Roger Dansey, Anil Kapur, David L. Lacey, Judith A. Reinsdorf, Edward C. Saltzman, and Paul M. Silva, representing eight of our nine incumbent directors, are “independent directors” as defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us regarding each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director and any affiliates.

Board of Directors and Committee Self-Evaluations

Our Board of Directors is committed to a robust self-evaluation process designed for continuous improvement. To achieve this, the Board of Directors conducts an annual self-evaluation for itself and its committees. As part of this process for 2025, our Board of Directors utilized a third-party facilitator to seek feedback from each director, and the results were reported to and discussed with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the full Board of Directors.

Committees of Our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Clinical and Commercialization Committee, each of which has the composition and responsibilities described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board of Directors. Each of these committees has a written charter, copies of which are available without charge on the investor relations section of our website at ir.nurixtx.com/corporate-governance/overview.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee is composed of Ms. Gregory, Ms. Reinsdorf and Mr. Silva, with Mr. Silva serving as the chair of our Audit Committee. The composition of our Audit Committee meets the requirements for independence under the current Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that each of

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Ms. Gregory and Mr. Silva is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act. This designation does not impose on Ms. Gregory or Mr. Silva any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than are generally imposed on members of our Audit Committee and our Board of Directors.

Compensation Committee

Our Compensation Committee is composed of Dr. Lacey, Mr. Saltzman and Mr. Silva, with Dr. Lacey serving as the chair of our Compensation Committee. Each member of our Compensation Committee is a non-employee director, as defined by Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and meets the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations.

•	evaluating, recommending, approving and reviewing executive officer compensation arrangements, plans, policies and programs;

•	evaluating and recommending non-employee director compensation arrangements for determination by our Board of Directors;

•	administering our cash-based and equity-based compensation plans;

•	overseeing human capital management, including matters related to employee acquisition and development, employee engagement, employee retention and attrition, and pay equity; and

•	overseeing our compliance with regulatory requirements associated with the compensation of directors, officers and employees.

The Compensation Committee has the sole authority and responsibility, subject to any approval by the Board of Directors which the Compensation Committee or legal counsel determines to be desirable or required by applicable law or the Nasdaq listing rules, to determine all aspects of executive compensation packages for our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers. The Compensation Committee also makes recommendations to our Board of Directors regarding the form and amount of compensation of non-employee directors. The Compensation Committee may take into account the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer with respect to the compensation of the other executive officers, and the recommendations of the Board of Directors or any member of the Board of Directors with respect to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers.

The Compensation Committee engaged an independent executive compensation consulting firm, Aon’s Human Capital Solutions practice, a division of Aon plc (Aon), to evaluate our executive compensation and non-employee director compensation program and practices and to provide advice and ongoing assistance on these matters for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025. Specifically, Aon was engaged to:

•	provide compensation-related data for a peer group of companies to serve as a basis for assessing competitive compensation practices;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•	review and assess our current non-employee directors, Chief Executive Officer and other executive officer compensation policies and practices and equity profile, relative to market practices;

•	review and assess our current executive compensation program relative to market practices to identify any potential changes or enhancements to be brought to the attention of the Compensation Committee; and

•	review market practices regarding base salary, bonus and equity programs.

Representatives of Aon attended the regular meetings of the Compensation Committee, including executive sessions from time to time without any members of management present. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025, Aon worked directly with the Compensation Committee (and not on behalf of management) to assist the Compensation Committee in satisfying its responsibilities and undertook no projects for management without the Compensation Committee’s prior approval. The Compensation Committee has determined that none of the work performed by Aon during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025, raised any conflict of interest.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other executive and senior financial officers. We intend to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, or waivers of these provisions, on our website or in public filings. The full text of our code of conduct is posted on the investor relations section of our website at ir.nurixtx.com/corporate-governance/overview.

Corporate Social Responsibility

We believe that corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives are important to our business and to creating sustainable value for our stockholders and wider stakeholder group. Our Board of Directors and management are committed to these initiatives and believe these efforts will benefit our employees, partners, and the communities in which we operate.

Social and Ethical Practices

We are committed to treating our employees fairly, compensating them competitively, and investing in their professional growth.

•

Equality and respect. We are committed to creating and maintaining a workplace free from discrimination or harassment on the basis of color, race, sex, national origin, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression or any other status protected by applicable law. Our management team and employees are expected to exhibit and promote honest, ethical and respectful conduct in the workplace. All of our employees must adhere to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that sets standards for appropriate behavior and are required to attend biennial training to help prevent, identify, report and stop any type of discrimination and harassment. Recruitment, hiring, development, training, compensation and advancement at our company is based on qualifications, performance, skills and experience without regard to gender, race and ethnicity.

•

Competitive pay and benefits. Drug development is a complex endeavor that requires deep expertise and experience across a broad array of disciplines. Biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies both large and small compete for a limited number of qualified applicants to fill specialized positions. We monitor our compensation programs closely and provide what we consider to be a very competitive mix of compensation, insurance and wellness benefits for all our employees, as well as enhanced maternity and paternity programs. To attract qualified applicants, we offer a total rewards package consisting of base salary and cash target bonus, a comprehensive benefits package and equity compensation for all full-time employees. Bonus opportunity and equity compensation increase as a percentage of total compensation based on level of responsibility. Actual bonus payout is based on company and individual performance.

•

Employee development and training. We focus on attracting, retaining and cultivating talented individuals. We emphasize employee development and training by providing access to a wide range of online and instructor-led development and continual learning programs. Employees are encouraged to attend scientific, clinical and technological meetings and conferences and have access to broad resources they need to be successful.

Governance

We are committed to corporate governance policies and practices demonstrating the highest standards of business ethics. We have procedures in place to help ensure compliance with governmental regulations. We review industry trends and best practices so we can continue to foster an environment centered around accountability.

•	Board of Directors Oversight. Our Board of Directors routinely discusses with management issues impacting our employees, including workplace culture, talent retention and employee development.

•	Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Oversight. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s purview includes oversight of our corporate responsibility programs.

•	Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Training Compliance. All employees and members of the Board of Directors are trained in and affirm compliance with our comprehensive Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Board and Committee Meetings and Attendance

The Board of Directors and its committees meet regularly throughout the year and also hold special meetings and act by written consent from time to time. During fiscal year 2025, the Board of Directors held nine meetings; the Audit Committee held four meetings; the Compensation Committee held seven meetings; the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held seven meetings; and the Clinical and Commercialization Committee held five meetings. During fiscal year 2025, none of the directors attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings held by the Board of Directors during his or her tenure and the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which such director served during his or her tenure. The independent members of the Board of Directors meet regularly in executive session without management directors or members of management present, either during scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors or on an ad hoc basis, to discuss such matters as the independent directors consider appropriate.

Board Attendance at Annual Meeting of Stockholders

We invite and encourage each member of our Board of Directors to attend our annual meetings of stockholders; however, we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by the members of our Board of Directors at our annual meetings of stockholders. Four of the nine then-serving members of our Board of Directors attended our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the 2025 Annual Meeting).

Communication with Directors

Stockholders and interested parties who wish to communicate with our Board of Directors, the non-management members of our Board of Directors as a group, a committee of the Board of Directors or a specific member of our Board of Directors (including the Chair of our Board of Directors) may do so by letter addressed to:

Nurix Therapeutics, Inc.

c/o Secretary

1600 Sierra Point Parkway

Brisbane, California, 94005

All communications by letter addressed to the attention of our Secretary will be reviewed by the Secretary and provided to the members of the Board of Directors unless such communications are unsolicited items, sales materials and other routine items and items unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the Board of Directors.

Considerations in Evaluating Director Nominees

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying, considering and recommending candidates to the Board of Directors for membership on the Board of Directors. A variety of methods are used to identify and evaluate director nominees, with the goal of maintaining and further developing a diverse, experienced and highly qualified Board of Directors. Candidates may come to our attention through current members of our Board of Directors, professional search firms, stockholders or other persons.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will recommend to the Board of Directors for selection all nominees to be proposed by the Board of Directors for election by the stockholders, including approval or recommendation of a slate of director nominees to be proposed by the Board of Directors for election at each annual meeting of stockholders, and will recommend all director nominees to be appointed by the Board of Directors to fill interim director vacancies.

Our Board of Directors encourages selection of directors who will contribute to the company’s overall corporate goals and diversity of viewpoints and ideas. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may from time to time review and recommend to the Board of Directors the desired qualifications, expertise and characteristics of directors, including such factors as breadth of experience, knowledge about our business and industry, diversity, willingness and ability to devote adequate time and effort to the Board of Directors, ability to contribute to the Board of Directors’ overall effectiveness, and the needs of the Board of Directors and its committees. Exceptional candidates who do not meet all of these criteria may still be considered. In evaluating potential candidates for the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers these factors in the light of the specific needs of the Board of Directors at that time.

In addition, under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, a director is expected to spend the time and effort necessary to properly discharge such director’s responsibilities. Accordingly, a director is expected to regularly

TABLE OF CONTENTS

attend meetings of the Board of Directors and committees on which such director sits, and to review, prior to meetings, the materials distributed in advance for such meetings. Thus, the number of other public company boards and other boards (or comparable governing bodies) on which a prospective nominee is a member, as well as his or her other professional responsibilities, will be considered. Also, under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, there are no limits on the number of three-year terms that may be served by a director. However, in connection with evaluating recommendations for nomination for reelection, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers director tenure.

Stockholder Recommendations for Nominations to the Board of Directors

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider properly submitted stockholder recommendations for candidates for membership on our Board of Directors who meet the minimum qualifications as described above. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the minimum criteria set forth above, based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder. A stockholder of record can nominate a candidate for election to the Board of Directors by complying with the procedures in Article I, Section 1.12 of our amended and restated bylaws. Any eligible stockholder who wishes to submit a nomination should review the requirements in the amended and restated bylaws on nominations by stockholders. Any nomination should be sent in writing to our Secretary at Nurix Therapeutics, Inc., 1600 Sierra Point Parkway, Brisbane, California, 94005. Submissions must include the full name of the proposed nominee, complete biographical information, a description of the proposed nominee’s qualifications as a director, other information specified in our amended and restated bylaws, and a representation that the nominating stockholder is a beneficial or record holder of our stock. Any such submission must be accompanied by the written consent of the proposed nominee to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected. These candidates are evaluated at meetings of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and may be considered at any point during the year. If any materials are provided by a stockholder in connection with the recommendation of a director candidate, such materials are forwarded to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Additional information regarding the process for properly submitting stockholder nominations for candidates for membership on our Board of Directors is set forth below under “Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations To Be Presented at Next Annual Meeting.”

PROPOSAL NO. 1

ELECTION OF CLASS III DIRECTORS

Our Board of Directors is divided into three classes. Each class serves for three years, with the terms of office of the respective classes expiring in successive years. Directors and director nominees in Class III will stand for election at the Annual Meeting. The terms of office of directors in Class I and Class II do not expire until the annual meetings of stockholders to be held in 2027 and 2028, respectively. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended to our Board of Directors, and our Board of Directors nominated, Dr. Sands, Dr. Dansey and Mr. Silva, each an incumbent Class III director, for election as Class III directors at the Annual Meeting. At the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Board of Directors proposes that each of the Class III nominees be elected as a Class III director for a three-year term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2029 and until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier resignation or removal.

Each Class III director will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter that are present in person or represented by proxy at the virtual Annual Meeting. This means that the three individuals nominated for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. As a result, any shares not voted “FOR” a particular nominee, whether as a result of a withhold vote or a broker non-vote, will not be counted in such nominee’s favor and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. You may vote “FOR ALL,” “WITHHOLD ALL,” or vote “FOR ALL EXCEPT” one or more of the nominees you specify. Shares represented by proxies will be voted “FOR ALL” unless the proxy is marked to withhold authority to so vote. You may not cumulate votes in the election of directors. If a nominee for any reason is unable to serve, the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominee as the proxy holders, who are officers of our company, might determine. Each nominee has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. Proxies may not be voted for more than three directors.

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders are being asked to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2026. Although ratification by stockholders is not required by law, our Audit Committee is submitting the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to our stockholders because we value our stockholders’ views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. If this proposal does not receive the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal that are voted “FOR” or “AGAINST” the matter, the Audit Committee would reconsider the appointment. Notwithstanding its selection and even if our stockholders ratify the selection, our Audit Committee, in its discretion, may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee believes that such a change would be in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders.

The following table presents fees for professional audit services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the audit of our annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended November 30, 2025 and 2024.

This non-binding advisory vote is commonly referred to as a “say on pay” vote. Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement, will be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock entitled to vote on the matter that are present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and are voted either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the proposal.

Stockholders are urged to read the “Executive Compensation” section of the proxy statement, which discusses how our executive compensation policies and procedures implement our compensation philosophy and contains tabular information and narrative discussion about our executive compensation policies and procedures and the compensation of our named executive officers. Our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe that these policies and procedures are effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our goals. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting.

“RESOLVED, that our stockholders approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation disclosures, the compensation tables and narrative discussion and the other related disclosures.”

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding.
