Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 27, 2026, Polaryx Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with approximately 35 investors, including existing investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers in a private placement a total of 2,502,696 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Private Placement”), representing approximately 5.3% of the Company’s outstanding shares immediately prior to the Private Placement, for aggregate gross proceeds of $10 million. MStone Partners Healthcare Limited, the Company’s largest stockholder, purchased 88,453 shares of common stock in the Private Placement, for gross proceeds to the Company of $360,000. The Private Placement closed on May 28, 2026.
The per share purchase price is based on each Purchaser’s committed amount, ranging from $3.70 per share at a $2.2 million investment level, increasing in defined increments up to $4.10 per share as the committed amount decreases by $50,000 increments. The weighted average price per share for all sales in the Private Placement was approximately $4.00.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants for a transaction of this type.
The Company currently expects to use the net proceeds from this Private Placement to fund its Phase 2 proof-of-concept basket trial, SOTERIA (PLX-200-600), as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The form of the Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The foregoing summary of the terms of the Purchase Agreement is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by the Purchase Agreement, the form of which is incorporated herein by reference.

The Shares will be issued without prior registration in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or Regulation S thereunder. In connection with the Purchasers’ execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers represented to the Company that the Shares to be purchased by them will be acquired solely for their own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law. Such Shares shall not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares of common stock contain a legend stating the same.
