RAMAT GAN, ISRAEL – (January 13, 2026): On January 13, 2026, XTL Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. (the “Company” or “XTL”) entered into a binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with Beyond Air, Inc. (“XAIR”) regarding a proposed acquisition transaction involving NeuroNOS Ltd. (“NeuroNOS”), a private biopharmaceutical company incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel focused on developing transformative treatments for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other complex neurological conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease and brain cancers, and a subsidiary of XAIR As of the date hereof, XAIR holds approximately eighty-five percent (85%) of the issued and outstanding share capital of NeuroNOS (the “XAIR Shares”). The contemplated transaction, as described in the LOI, is hereinafter referred to as the “Transaction.”
Pursuant to the LOI, the parties intend to negotiate and execute definitive agreements pursuant to which XTL would acquire all of XAIR Shares, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the LOI and in the definitive agreements to be entered into by the parties.
Under the LOI, the consideration to be provided by XTL to XAIR in the Transaction is anticipated to comprise: (a) the issuance to XAIR of such number of American Depositary Shares of the Company (“ADSs”) as shall be required for XAIR to beneficially own, as of the closing date of the Transaction, 19.99% of the issued and outstanding share capital of XTL (the “Beneficial Ownership”), (b) the issuance to XAIR of three-year warrants in such amount as necessary to ensure that XAIR shall continue to maintain the Beneficial Ownership in relation to the exercise of certain existing XTL warrants and any other issuances to employees and officers of NeuroNOS; (b) a cash payment in the amount of US$1,000,000, payable within sixty (60) days following the closing of the Transaction (the “Up Front Payment”); and (c) cash milestone payments in an aggregate amount of up to US$5,500,000, subject to the achievement of certain specified clinical and regulatory milestones, with an option for XTL, under certain circumstances, to discharge all such milestone payment obligations by making a single lump sum cash payment of US$4,000,000. Additionally, the LOI includes the payment of commercial milestone amounts by XTL to XAIR based on cumulative net sales of the first NeuroNOS product, ranging from US$2,000,000 to US$12,500,000, upon attainment of specified net sales thresholds.
Furthermore, the LOI provides that from the closing of the Transaction until U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of the new drug application (NDA) for the Company’s first autism therapeutic product candidate, XAIR will be subject to limitations on its ability to sell or otherwise dispose of ADSs of the Company. Specifically, XAIR would be permitted to sell on any single trading day no more than fifteen percent (15%) of the average daily trading volume of XTL’s ADSs on Nasdaq, calculated based on the ten (10) full trading days immediately preceding the date of such sale transaction, as reported by Bloomberg (or another mutually agreed reputable financial source).
The LOI contemplates that XTL intends to extend to the other shareholders of NeuroNOS, who collectively hold approximately fifteen percent (15%) of the issued and outstanding share capital of NeuroNOS not owned by XAIR (the “Remaining Shares”), the opportunity, exercisable within a specified period following the consummation of the Transaction, to exchange their Remaining Shares for ordinary shares of XTL, on terms and conditions to be set forth in the definitive agreements. As set forth in the LOI, holders of options and other equity-based awards of NeuroNOS shall be offered treatment that is economically equivalent in connection with such exchange.
The proposed Transaction forms an integral part of the Company’s strategic initiative to expand its asset portfolio by acquiring assets with significant growth potential.

In order to support the Company’s financial needs and to complete the proposed Transaction, including the funding of the Up Front Payment, the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee have approved on January 12, 2026, a private placement in the aggregate amount of up to US$2,000,000, to be consummated concurrently with the closing of the Transaction (the “Private Placement”) at a purchase price of approximately US$0.53 per American Depositary Share of the Company, representing a 20% discount to the closing bid price as determined over the ten (10) trading days immediately prior to the approval of the Private Placement by the Company’s Board of Directors. The consummation of the Private Placement shall be conditional upon the consummation of the Transaction, and subject to customary closing conditions and all requisite corporate, regulatory, and stock exchange approvals, including, to the extent required, approval by the Company’s shareholders. The Company anticipates that certain existing shareholders, directors, and/or officers of the Company (including related parties) may participate in the Private Placement. To the extent that any related party participation or other aspect of the Private Placement requires additional approval by the Company’s shareholders pursuant to applicable law or stock exchange regulations, such approvals shall be obtained prior to the completion of the Private Placement. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to enter into and/or to consummate the Private Placement on terms favorable to the Company, or at all.
The consummation of the Transaction is subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, which shall contain customary representations, warranties, and covenants, as well as the satisfaction of various conditions precedent to closing, all as are customary for transactions of this nature. Such conditions shall include, without limitation: (i) the completion of mutual legal, financial, clinical, intellectual property, tax, and regulatory due diligence, each to the satisfaction of the respective parties; (ii) the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements; (iii) the approval of the Transaction by the Company’s shareholders; and (iv) the receipt of all necessary governmental, regulatory, or third-party approvals, if and to the extent required.
