Good morning, welcome to the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders for Imunon, Inc. At this time, all participants will be in a listen-only mode. I will now turn the call over to Susan Aylward, Imunon's Corporate Secretary. Good morning, welcome to Imunon's 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Except for historical information, certain statements made during this meeting are forward-looking statements involving significant risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties, including those related to the future financial position and business strategy of the company, are detailed in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. I would now like to introduce Mr. Michael Tardugno, the Executive Chairman of Imunon and its Board of Directors. Thank you, Susan. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. As the Chairman of the Board of Imunon, it is my pleasure to welcome all of you to our 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Again, this year, we will be conducting a virtual annual meeting. After dialing into the meeting this morning, you should have been provided with a copy of our meeting agenda. It is our intention to conduct the meeting in accordance with this agenda. Only those individuals who are shareholders in Imunon as of the record date, that's 4/17/2026, are allowed to participate in this meeting of shareholders. I would like to note that, as is our long-held practice, we have provided time for questions at the end of the meeting. Before proceeding to the business portion of the meeting, I would like to introduce the company's directors and executive officers who are present with me and by phone today. Members of our Board of Directors are Dr. Donald Braun, Mr. James Dentzer, Mr. Frederick Fritz, Ms. Christine Pellizzari, and of course, our CEO, Dr. Stacy Lindborg. I would also like to introduce members of Imunon's executive staff. They include Dr. Stacy Lindborg, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Board Director, Dr. Douglas Faller, our Chief Medical Officer, Mr. Jeffrey Church, our interim Chief Financial Officer, and from whom you've just heard, Ms. Susan Aylward, our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary. Finally, I would like to note that Mr. Alexander Dundara, our Engagement Partner from WithumSmith+Brown, the company's independent public accountants, is also with us today. I would now like to ask Ms. Aylward to attend to certain procedural matters. Thank you. Susan? Thank you, Michael. This meeting is being held pursuant to the proxy statement mailed on May 4th, 2026, to each shareholder of record of the company at the close of business on April 17th, 2026, the record date fixed by the board of directors for determining the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at this meeting. I have a copy of the printed proxy statement dated May 4th, 2026, setting forth the time, place, and purpose of this meeting. I also have a complete list in alphabetical order of the record holders of our common stock as of the close of business on April 17th, 2026. The list shows the address for each shareholder and the number of shares registered in each shareholder's name. This list, which will be kept open for inspection throughout the meeting, shows that at the close of business on April 17th, 2026, there were 3,983,342 shares of Imunon common stock outstanding. I have an affidavit of distribution signed by Joanna Vogel, manager of Broadridge Financial Solutions, showing that commencing on May 4th, 2026, she caused to be mailed to each shareholder of record a copy of the proxy statement together with related proxy materials. I'll now turn it back to Michael. Ms. Aylward is directed to incorporate a copy of the proxy statement together with the affidavit of mailing into the minute book of the company as part of the minutes of this annual meeting. Prior to this meeting, the Board of Directors appointed Mr. Church as Inspector of Elections. He has executed the Oath of Inspector of Elections. We will file Mr. Church's oath with the meeting minutes of this meeting. Mr. Church will now conduct a poll of the shareholders represented here today in person or by proxy. Jeff? Thank you. There was a total of 3,983,342 shares of the company's common stock outstanding as of the record date. Pursuant to our bylaws, a quorum for conduct of business at this annual meeting requires the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of at least 33 and one-third% of their shares. I am advised that a total of 1,808,666 shares of Imunon's common stock, or 45.4% of the total outstanding shares, is present or represented by proxy here today. Having met the quorum requirements by the vote of sufficient issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the company entitled to vote at this meeting being present in person or represented by proxy, a quorum is present. I hereby declare the meeting to be lawfully and properly convened and competent to proceed to the transaction of the business for which it has been called, as stated in the meeting notice. On behalf of the board of directors, I would like to express my appreciation to all shareholders, and particularly those who are in attendance at this meeting today, and to those who have returned their proxies. It is one of my more gratifying tasks as chairman of your board of directors to thank you for your loyalty and for your continued support. On your behalf, I would like to express our gratitude to the company's board of directors, not only for their support and guidance, but also for their independence and commitment to its fiduciary responsibilities to our shareholders and to our employees. I want to turn the meeting over to Stacy Lindborg now, your President and Chief Executive Officer, for a brief business overview. Stacy? Thank you, Michael. Over the past year, Imunon has achieved several important and exceptionally meaningful clinical milestones. Our lead product candidate, IMNN-001, continues to make strong progress in the pivotal phase III OVATION 3 study, evaluating its potential as a frontline treatment for women newly diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer. Enrollment continues to be ahead of plan, supported by strong interest from principal investigators and the medical community, with multiple sites activated across North America and the first patient dosed in July 2025. We are on track to complete enrollment by Q1 2029, with a clear regulatory path to a potential BLA filing aligned with the FDA. Our completed phase II OVATION 2 study delivered even more compelling final data announced in March 2026, showing a median increase of 14.7 months in overall survival, which was 45.1 months with the IMNN-001 experimental arm versus 30.4 months with the standard of care. Again, a median increase of 14.7 months over the standard of care in the intent-to-treat population, an improvement that continues to strengthen with longer follow-up. In the subgroup of patients who received PARP inhibitor treatment as maintenance therapy, the median overall survival benefit reached 24.2 months, which was 66.6 months in the IMNN-001 arm versus 41.4 months in the standard of care control arm. These results are especially powerful since there has never been a trial that has demonstrated an overall survival benefit in this patient population. IMNN-001 also maintained its highly favorable safety and tolerability profile. These data position Imunon as a potential transformative advance in the standard of care for a disease that has seen virtually no meaningful advances in frontline therapy in over 25 years. Furthermore, since Imunon is the first company to safely and successfully harness the power of IL-12 as an investigative therapy, if we are successful in phase III, IMNN-001 would be a first-in-class IL-12 immunotherapy, opening the door for potential advances well beyond ovarian cancer. Building on the strength of OVATION 2, the phase II results, the company presented trials and progress updates on the ongoing phase III, OVATION 3 study at two prestigious international oncology forums. At the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress in 2025, with an encore at the International Gynecologic Cancer Society, IGCS 2025 annual global meeting. Additional translational data from the phase II OVATION 2 study were presented at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer, or otherwise known as SITC, their 40th annual meeting, and key insights were shared during our November 2025 R&D Day. We'll soon be announcing plans for an R&D Day in Q3 2026, and we look forward to inviting you to hear from a panel of physicians and scientists who are intimately involved with our novel immunotherapy. With the pivotal phase III trial advancing, final phase II data reinforcing IMNN-001's potential, and a focused financial strategy, the company is poised for transformative growth. We remain fully dedicated to bringing IMNN-001 to patients fighting advanced ovarian cancer. The company has continued to demonstrate its ability to finance operations through creative, efficient, and shareholder-friendly routes that support the advancement of our clinical programs while extending our cash runway. As always, our goal is to finance the company while not forgetting our shareholders and keeping a sharp focus on our North Star, which is bringing an innovative and much-needed new treatment option to women with advanced ovarian cancer. Over the past year, Imunon has executed multiple financings, including a May 2025 private placement at the market under NASDAQ rules that provided $3.25 million in immediate gross proceeds, with the potential for an additional $6.5 million from short-term warrant exercises. In December of 2025, a registered direct offering that raised $7 million, also priced at the market, and as announced on June 4th, up to $10 million is expected in aggregate gross proceeds from a uniquely structured, flexible financing. These targeted actions, paired with rigorous expense management and a sharp focus on the OVATION 3 program, ensure that we remain well-positioned to fund key clinical milestones without compromising our momentum. Our approach to raising capital reflects our steadfast commitment to advancing IMNN-101 and creating long-term value for shareholders as we work to deliver this potentially transformative therapy to patients advancing ovarian cancer. With that, I'd like to turn the meeting back to Michael. Thank you, Stacy, not only for your encouraging comments but also for your fine stewardship of Imunon over this past year. As a preliminary matter, I would like to point out that most of you who have returned proxies authorizing the individuals named in the proxy to vote on all proposals coming before the meeting. Those of you who have signed into our virtual annual shareholder meeting requesting ballots can vote individually anytime during the meeting up until the polls are closed. The proxy statement mailed to each Imunon shareholder with the additional proxy materials indicated there will be four proposals to be acted upon today.

Speaker 4: Thank you, Michael. Over the past year, Imunon has achieved several important and exceptionally meaningful clinical milestones. Our lead product candidate, IMNN-001, continues to make strong progress in the pivotal phase III OVATION 3 study, evaluating its potential as a frontline treatment for women newly diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer. Enrollment continues to be ahead of plan, supported by strong interest from principal investigators and the medical community, with multiple sites activated across North America and the first patient dosed in July 2025. We are on track to complete enrollment by Q1 2029, with a clear regulatory path to a potential BLA filing aligned with the FDA.

Again, a median increase of 14.7 months over the standard of care in the intent-to-treat population, an improvement that continues to strengthen with longer follow-up. In the subgroup of patients who received PARP inhibitor treatment as maintenance therapy, the median overall survival benefit reached 24.2 months, which was 66.6 months in the IMNN-001 arm versus 41.4 months in the standard of care control arm. These results are especially powerful since there has never been a trial that has demonstrated an overall survival benefit in this patient population. IMNN-001 also maintained its highly favorable safety and tolerability profile.

Furthermore, since Imunon is the first company to safely and successfully harness the power of IL-12 as an investigative therapy, if we are successful in phase III, IMNN-001 would be a first-in-class IL-12 immunotherapy, opening the door for potential advances well beyond ovarian cancer. Building on the strength of OVATION 2, the phase II results, the company presented trials and progress updates on the ongoing phase III, OVATION 3 study at two prestigious international oncology forums.
