NEWTON, Mass. - October 8, 2025 - Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: KPTI), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, today announced that it has entered into comprehensive financing and capital structure transactions expected to provide the Company with $100 million of financial flexibility and additional capital, extending the Company's cash runway into the second quarter of 2026 based on the Company's current operating plans.

"Following the recent completion of enrollment of our Phase 3 SENTRY trial in myelofibrosis, we are excited to announce this strategic financing which is expected to provide us with the resources needed to deliver top-line data from this pivotal trial," said Richard Paulson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Karyopharm. "I would like to thank our lenders, noteholders and equity investors for their ongoing support to strengthen our balance sheet, equitize near-term debt maturities and support our potentially transformational Phase 3 myelofibrosis program. We believe that selinexor plus ruxolitinib has the potential to be the first combination therapy approved for the treatment of myelofibrosis. By combining selinexor with the current standard of care, we have the potential to redefine the way people living with myelofibrosis are treated."

Each of the financing and capital structure transactions is expected to close on or around October 10, 2025 (Closing Date), subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company's existing senior lenders have agreed to multi-faceted financing transactions with the following key components:

$67.5 million in financial flexibility and new capital consisting of $27.5 million in new term loan borrowings and new convertible notes, $25 million of near-term deferrals of interest and royalty payments, and a $15 million temporary reduction in the Company's minimum liquidity covenant. In addition, holders of the Company's convertible notes due 2029 have agreed to exchange $15 million of their notes for newly issued shares of common stock or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof.

Holders of approximately $24.25 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's senior unsecured convertible notes due October 15, 2025 have agreed to exchange their notes and accrued interest due thereon at a discount to par value for newly issued shares of common stock, or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof, plus warrants to purchase shares of common stock.

In addition, the Company has entered into a securities purchase agreement for a private placement in which the Company agreed to sell 1,487,917 shares of common stock and accompanying warrants to purchase 1,317,771 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $6.64 per share. The warrants issued in the private placement will be exercisable on or before the 30th day following the public announcement of top-line results from the Company's XPORT-EC-042 trial in endometrial cancer, which is anticipated in mid-2026. The private placement is expected to result in gross proceeds of approximately $8.75 million before deducting any offering expenses.
