    Item 1.01                          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

    On September 3, 2025, MEI Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a master loan agreement (the “Agreement”) with BitGo Prime, LLC (“Lender”). The Agreement creates a framework under which the Company may borrow any digital assets or cash from Lender from time to time. Each loan is documented in a separate loan request agreed to by the parties setting forth the specific terms, including principal amount, fees, collateral requirements, and the date on which the loan is to commence and mature. 
     
    The loan fee, effectively the interest rate on the borrowed amounts, is to be determined for each loan and is calculated on a daily basis at the annualized rate specified in each confirmation. 
      
    Each loan may have a fixed term, or may include a call option or prepayment option, as specified in each loan request. In general, either party can terminate a loan by providing notice within the time frame set forth in the Agreement. Upon termination, the borrowed digital assets or cash must be returned, and the related collateral released. 
      
    Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by collateral in favor of the Lender. Collateral may include cash or other forms agreed upon by the Parties. The collateral’s required value is typically higher than the borrowed amount, subject to margin calls as set forth in the Agreement. If the value of posted collateral falls below the margin call threshold, the Company must promptly post additional collateral. Failure to maintain sufficient collateral can result in an event of default and remedies available to the Lender, including the right to liquidate pledged collateral. 
      
    The Agreement contains representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, as well as customary events of default. 
     
    The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of the Agreement, and it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.  

    Item 2.03
    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet  Arrangement of a Registrant.

    The information included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
