Explanatory Note
On May 15, 2025, Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC (the “Company”) entered into letter agreements (the “Agreements”) with certain accredited holders (collectively, the “Holders”) of the Company’s outstanding Series E warrants (“Series E Warrants”), Series H warrants (the “Series H Warrants”), Series J warrants (the “Series J Warrants”) and Series K warrants (“Series K Warrants,” and collectively, the “Warrants”) issued in prior transactions. Pursuant to the Agreements, the exercise price of each Warrant that is being exercised will be reduced to $0.31 per share.
The Holders are collectively exercising an aggregate of 200,433 Warrants consisting of: (i) 47,530 Series E Warrants, (ii) 66,947 Series H Warrants, (iii) 42,978 Series J Warrants and (iv) 42,978 Series K Warrants. As a result of the exercises, the Company will issue an aggregate of 200,433 of its American depositary shares (“ADSs”), with each ADS representing 10,000 of the Company’s ordinary shares, nominal value £0.00005 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”). The ADSs to be issued represent approximately 7.5% of the Company’s issued ADSs. The shares underlying the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) have all been previously registered on Form F-1 registration statements. The closing is expected to take place on or about May 19, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company anticipates receiving gross proceeds of approximately $62,000, before estimated offering expenses.
In the event that the exercise of Warrants would cause the Holder to exceed the beneficial ownership limitation provisions contained in the applicable Warrants, the Company shall only issue such number of shares that would not cause the Holder to exceed the maximum amount permitted thereunder, with the balance to be held in abeyance until notice from the Holder that the balance (or portion thereof) may be issued in compliance with such limitations.
As a condition to reducing the exercise price of the Warrants, each Holder has agreed (i) to not sell or transfer any Warrant Shares until after May 22, 2025, and (ii) to the extent the Company calls a general and/or annual general meeting of shareholders during the period the Holder is the owner of such Warrant Shares, to, among other things, vote or cause to be voted such Warrant Shares in favor of any proposal presented by the Company at such meeting.
The Company will not be issuing new warrants to replace the Warrants, and it did not engage a placement agent to facilitate the transaction.
The foregoing descriptions of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreements, a copy of which is attached to this Report on Form 6-K as Exhibit 10.1.
The information included in this report on Form 6-K, including Exhibit 10.1, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the registration statements on Form S-8 (File No. 333-214969) and Form F-3 (File No. 333-233901) of the Company (including any prospectuses forming a part of such registration statements) and to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is filed, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.

Re: Reprice of Warrants
To Whom It May Concern:
Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC, a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (the “Company”), is pleased to offer to you the opportunity to exercise the warrants set forth on your signature page attached hereto (the “Warrants”) and held by you (the “Holder”). The ordinary shares, nominal value £0.00005 (“Ordinary Shares”) (in the form of American Depositary Shares) underlying the Warrants (“Warrant Shares”) have been previously registered pursuant to registration statements on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statements”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Warrants.
In consideration for cash exercising the Warrants held by you as set forth on your signature page attached hereto on or before 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on May 15, 2025 (the “Warrant Exercise”), the Company hereby offers you a reduction of the exercise price of the Warrants to US$0.31 per share. As such, upon accepting this offer, Section 2(b) of all Warrants issued pursuant to the Registration Statements and held by you is hereby amended and restated as follows:
“The exercise price per ADS under this Warrant shall be US$0.31, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).”
For the avoidance of doubt, the Company will not be issuing warrants to the Holder to replace those being exercised pursuant to this letter agreement.
The Holder may accept this offer by countersigning this letter below, with such acceptance constituting the Holder’s exercise of the number of Warrants as set forth on your signature page attached hereto for an aggregate exercise price as set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) on or before 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on May 15, 2025. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Warrant Exercise would otherwise cause the Holder to exceed the beneficial ownership limitations set forth in Section 2(e) of the applicable Warrants, upon notice from the Holder of such limitation the Company shall only issue such number of Warrant Shares to the Holder that would not cause the Holder to exceed the maximum number of Warrant Shares permitted thereunder with the balance to be held in abeyance until notice from the Holder that the balance (or portion thereof) may be issued in compliance with such limitations, which abeyance shall be evidenced through the applicable Warrant which shall be deemed prepaid thereafter, and exercised pursuant to a Notice of Exercise in the applicable Warrant (provided no additional exercise price shall be payable).
If the Holder accepts this offer by countersigning this letter below, the Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that it shall (i) not sell or transfer such Warrant Shares until after May 22, 2025, after which time the Holder shall be free to sell or transfer such Warrant Shares, and (ii) to the extent the Company calls a General Meeting of Shareholders and/or Annual General Meeting of Shareholders during the period the Holder is the beneficial and/or record owner of such Warrant Shares, (x) cause to be counted for purposes of establishing quorum at such meeting all of the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such Holder, including the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Holder Securities”), or at any adjournment thereof, and (y) vote or cause to be voted (in person, by proxy, by action by written consent, as applicable, or as otherwise may be required or permitted under the articles of association of the Company or the terms of the applicable Warrant) the Holder Securities in favor of any proposal presented by the Company at such meeting. In furtherance of this provision, concurrently herewith, the Holder hereby authorizes the Company to notify the Company’s transfer agent and/or depositary that there is a stop transfer order with respect to the Holder Securities (and that this letter agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of such Holder Securities).
Additionally, the Company agrees to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth on Annex A attached hereto. The Holder represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof it is, and on each date on which it exercises the Warrants it will be, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
If this offer is accepted and this letter agreement is executed and delivered to the Company on or before 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on May 22, 2025, the Company shall (i) file a prospectus supplement to the Registration Statements, as applicable, with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") disclosing the reduced exercise price of the Warrants, and (ii) file a Current Report on Form 6-K (the "Form 6-K") with the SEC disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder, including this letter agreement as an exhibit thereto with the SEC within the time required by the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. From and after the issuance of the Form 6-K, the Company represents to the Holder that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to the Holder by the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, effective upon the issuance of the Form 6-K, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company or any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on the one hand, and the Holder or any of its Affiliates on the other hand, as it relates to the transaction described herein, shall terminate. The Company represents to the Holder that none of the Company's directors, officers, employees or agents will provide the Holder with any material, nonpublic information that is not disclosed in the Form 6-K.
The closing of the transaction described herein shall occur no later than May 19, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. (New York City Time) at such location as the parties shall mutually agree (the “Closing Date”). Unless otherwise directed by the Company, settlement of the Warrant Exercise hereunder shall occur via “Delivery Versus Payment” (“DVP”) (i.e., on the Closing Date, the Company shall issue the American Depositary Shares issued in the Warrant Exercise in the Holder’s name and address and be released by the transfer agent or depositary directly to the account(s) identified by the Holder; and upon receipt of such Warrant Shares, the payment of the aggregate exercise price therefor shall be made by the Holder by wire transfer to the Company). On or prior to the Closing Date, the Holder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company such Holder’s aggregate exercise price for the exercised Warrant Shares, which shall be made available for DVP settlement with the Company or its designee. Except as set forth herein, the terms of the Warrants, including but not limited to the obligations to deliver the Warrant Shares, shall remain in effect as if the acceptance of this offer was a formal exercise notice under the applicable Warrants. In addition, upon the receipt of the Ordinary Shares (in the form of American Depositary Shares) pursuant to the Warrant Exercise, the Holder agrees to surrender the applicable Warrants exercised hereunder to the Company for cancellation.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Holder under this letter agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other holder warrants of the Company (each, an “Other Holder”) under any other agreement related to the exercise of such warrants (“Other Warrant Exercise Agreement”), and the Holder shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Holder or under any such Other Warrant Exercise Agreement. Nothing contained in this letter agreement, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and the Other Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and the Other Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement and the Company acknowledges that the Holder and the Other Holders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement or any Other Warrant Exercise Agreement. The Company and the Holder confirm that the Holder has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. The Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this letter agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this letter agreement. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Warrant Shares. This letter agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
