Other Events.

On September 18, 2024, Cibus, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Roth Capital Partners and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, as representatives (the "Representatives") of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the "Underwriters"), relating to the underwritten public offering (the "Offering) of 3,000,000 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock") at a public offering price of $4.00 per Share. In addition, the Company granted the Representatives a 45-dayoption to purchase up to 450,000 additional shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

The Offering is expected to close on September 19, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company estimates that the net proceeds of the Offering will be approximately $11.2 million (or $12.8 million if the Representatives' option to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock is exercised in full), in each case, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

The Offering was made pursuant to the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (Registration No. 333-273062) and the accompanying base prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and declared effective by the Commission on October 27, 2023. The preliminary prospectus related to the Offering was filed with the Commission on September 17, 2024 and the final prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") related to the Offering was filed with the Commission on September 19, 2024.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments that the Underwriters may be required to make because of such liabilities. In addition, the Company and the Company's directors and executive officers also agreed not to sell or transfer any Class A Common Stock without first obtaining the written consent of the Representatives, subject to certain exceptions as described in the Prospectus Supplement, for 30 days after closing of the Offering, in the case of the Company, and 30 days after the date of the Prospectus Supplement, in the case of the Company's directors and executive officers.

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the Underwriting Agreement and lock-uparrangements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibit.
