Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 29, 2025, Medicus Pharma Ltd. ("Medicus" or the "Company") entered into a Placement Agency Agreement (the "Placement Agency Agreement") with Maxim Group LLC, as representative of the placement agents named therein (the "Placement Agents"), relating to a public offering of 2,260,000 units, each unit consisting of one common share, no par value, of the Company, and one warrant to purchase one common share, at a price of $3.10 per unit (the "Offering"). Each warrant is immediately exercisable for one of our common shares at an exercise price of $3.10 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance. In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into a subscription agreement (the "Subscription Agreements") with a certain investor (the "Investor").
The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering, which closed on June 2, 2025, were $7,006,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund its Phase 2 proof of concept clinical trial for treatment of basal cell carcinoma using its doxorubicin tip loaded dissolvable microarray needle skinpatch. The Company may also use the net proceeds of the Offering to expand its exploratory phase 2 clinical trial to a pivotal trial and/or to expand its trials to cover other non-melanoma skin diseases. The Company expects to use any remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes and working capital.
The units were offered pursuant to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement"), initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") on May 27, 2025 and declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2025.
Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the Placement Agents a cash fee of 7.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Offering. The Company also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain expenses. The Placement Agency Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, agreements and indemnification obligations of the parties.
The Subscription Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements by the Company and the Investor, customary conditions to closing, and customary indemnification obligations of the Investor.
On June 2, 2025, the Company entered into a warrant agency agreement (the "Warrant Agency Agreement") with Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company ("Odyssey"), pursuant to which Odyssey will act as warrant agent with respect to the warrants issued by the Company in the Offering.
The foregoing descriptions of the Placement Agency Agreement, the Subscription Agreement, the warrants and the Warrant Agency Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning regarding the Company's expected use of the net proceeds of the Offering. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "plan," "believe," "goal," "target," "aim," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "outlook," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "continue," "could," "may," "might," "possible," "potential," "predict," "should," "would" and other similar words and expressions, although the absence of these words or expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations and beliefs of the Company's management and are inherently subject to a number of factors, risks, uncertainties and assumptions and their potential effects. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. Actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements based on a number of factors, risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC. Potential investors, shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they were made. The Company does not assume any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement after it was made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law or regulation. Investors are referred to the full discussion of risks and uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements and the discussion of risk factors contained in the Company's filings with the SEC, which are available at www.sec.gov.
