This Joinder to Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (this “Joinder”) is made and entered into as of July 31, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), by and among Xxxxxxxx Biopharma, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the investor listed on Exhibit A attached to this Joinder (the “Additional Purchaser”).

WHEREAS, the Company and the Purchaser executed and delivered that certain Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2022 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Company is party to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 30, 2022, by and among the Company, TradeUP Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “SPAC”), and TradeUp Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the SPAC (“Merger Sub”) (as may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving such merger as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the SPAC (the “Merger”);h

WHEREAS, Section 2.3 of the Purchase Agreement contemplates that Additional Purchasers will join and agree to become bound by the Purchase Agreement as an Additional Purchaser and thereof be deemed to be “Purchasers” for all purposes under the Purchase Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Additional Purchaser now wishes to join and agrees to become bound by the covenants, terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement as a Purchaser thereunder.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Unless defined herein, all capitalized terms used in this Joinder have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

2. Sale and Issuance of Series A Preferred Stock. The closing of the purchase of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Merger. The Closing shall occur on the closing date of, and immediately prior to, or simultaneously with, the consummation of the Merger. Additional Purchaser shall deliver to the Company on or prior to August 3^rd 2023, which is two (2) business days prior to the scheduled closing date of the Merger as of the date hereof of August 7^th, 2023 (the “Scheduled Closing Date”), to be held in escrow until the Closing, the purchase price set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Purchase Price”) for the shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock set forth on Exhibit A hereto (“Shares”) by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company. In the event the Closing does not occur within five (5) business days of the Scheduled Closing Date, the Company shall promptly (but not later than two (2) business days thereafter) return the Purchase Price to the Additional Purchaser. In the event that the Closing fails to occur on the Scheduled Closing Date, Additional Purchaser hereby agrees to upon written notice from (or on behalf of) the Company to the Additional Purchaser (the “New Closing Date Notice”) that the Company reasonably expects all conditions to the Transaction Closing to be satisfied on a scheduled closing date specified in the New Closing Date Notice (the “New Scheduled Closing Date”), Additional Purchaser shall deliver to the Company, at least two (2) business days prior to the New Scheduled Closing Date to be held in escrow until the Closing, the Purchase Price for the Shares by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company in the New Closing Date Notice, which at the Closing will be released to the Company against delivery by the Company promptly after the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure of the Closing to occur on the Scheduled Closing Date or New Scheduled Closing Date, as applicable, shall not terminate this Joinder or otherwise relieve any party of any of its obligations hereunder, including Additional Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Shares following the Company’s delivery of a New Closing Date Notice.
