Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
ITEM
9A.
CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure
controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and
is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate, in order to allow timely decisions in connection with required disclosure.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports
we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s
rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In
designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how
well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. As required by Rule 13a-15(b)
or Rule 15d-15(b) promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation
of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation
of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the
period covered by this Annual Report at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes
in Internal Control
There
have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
Management’s
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, under the supervision of our Audit Committee. Our internal control over financial reporting is
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those
systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated
the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the framework in Internal Control
- Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment
and those criteria, management believes that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024.
Limitations
on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management
of the Company, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure
controls and procedures or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system,
no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives
will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must
be considered relative to their costs. Furthermore, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud,
if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that
breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons or
by the collusion of two or more persons. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood
of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Auditor’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
This
Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control
over financial reporting as our management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting
firm pursuant to SEC rules that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

will be granted Restricted Stock Units (“RSU”) Awards of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that vest over
three years in equal amounts contingent upon the Company realizing certain gross revenue and gross profit targets. In the event that
Mr. Norton resigns for “good reason” or is terminated by the Company without “cause,” each as defined in Mr.
Norton’s employment agreement, or a change of control takes place, all outstanding and unvested RSUs will immediately accelerate
and vest in full. Under Mr. Norton’s employment agreement, Mr. Norton will be eligible for other employee benefits in accordance
with the Company’s policies and plans.

Components
of Compensation for Fiscal Year 2024
Base
Salary and Bonuses. As existing executive officers and NEOs, Dr. Pirani and Mr. Norton receive a base salary and bonuses to compensate
them for services rendered to the Company. The base salary payable to each NEO is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation
reflecting the executive’s skill set, experience, role and responsibilities. Base salary amounts will be established based on consideration
of, among other factors, the scope of the NEO’s position, responsibilities and years of service and the compensation committee’s
general knowledge of the competitive market, based on, among other things, experience with other similarly situated companies and Wellgistics
Health’s industry and market data reviewed by the compensation committee.
Incentive
Plan. We have adopted the Amended and Restated 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) in order to facilitate
the grant of equity incentives to our directors, employees (including our NEOs) and consultants and certain of our affiliates and to
enable us and certain of our affiliates to obtain and retain services of these individuals, which is essential to our long-term success.
The below sets forth the principal features of the Incentive Plan.
Administration.
The Incentive Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors, which may delegate different levels of
authority to different committees or persons with administrative and grant authority under the Incentive Plan (referred to collectively
as the “Administrator”), subject to certain limitations that may be imposed under the Incentive Plan, Section 16 of the Exchange
Act and/or stock exchange rules, as applicable. The Administrator has broad authority under the Incentive Plan, including, without limitation,
the authority:
●
to
select eligible participants and determine the type(s) of award(s) that they are to receive;
●
to
grant awards and determine the terms and conditions of awards, including the price (if any) to be paid for the shares or the award
and, in the case of share-based awards, the number of shares to be offered or awarded;
●
to
determine any applicable vesting and exercise conditions for awards (including any applicable performance and/or time-based vesting
or exercisability conditions) and the extent to which such conditions have been satisfied, or determine that no delayed vesting or
exercise is required, to determine the circumstances in which any performance-based goals (or the applicable measure of performance)
will be adjusted and the nature and impact of any such adjustment, to establish the events (if any) on which exercisability or vesting
may accelerate (including specified terminations of employment or service or other circumstances), and to accelerate or extend the
vesting or exercisability or extend the term of any or all outstanding awards (subject in the case of options and stock appreciation
rights to the maximum term of the award);
●
to
cancel, modify, or waive our rights with respect to, or modify, discontinue, suspend, or terminate any or all outstanding awards,
subject to any required consents;
●
subject
to the other provisions of the Incentive Plan, to make certain adjustments to an outstanding award and to authorize the conversion,
succession or substitution of an award;
●
to
determine the method of payment of any purchase price for an award or shares of the Company’s common stock delivered under
the Incentive Plan, as well as any tax-related items with respect to an award, which may be in the form of cash, check, or other
acceptable instrument, by the delivery of already-owned shares of the Company’s common stock or by a reduction of the number
of shares deliverable pursuant to the award, by services rendered by the recipient of the award, by notice and third party payment
or cashless exercise on such terms as the Administrator may authorize, or any other form permitted by law;
●
to
modify the terms and conditions of any award, establish sub-plans and agreements and determine different terms and conditions that
the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with laws in the countries where we or one of our subsidiaries operates
or where one or more eligible participants reside or provide services;
●
to
approve the form of any award agreements used under the Incentive Plan; and
●
to
construe and interpret the Incentive Plan, make rules for the administration of the Incentive Plan, and make all other determinations
for the administration of the Incentive Plan.
69
Eligibility.
All of our officers and employees and officers and employees of our subsidiaries (including all of our named executive officers),
each of the members of our board of directors who are not employed by us or any of our subsidiaries (“Non-Employee Directors”),
and certain independent contractor consultants who provide bona fide services to us or one of our affiliates are eligible to receive
awards under the Incentive Plan.
Limitation
on Awards and Shares Available. The number of shares initially available for issuance under awards granted pursuant to the Incentive
Plan is 43,506,064 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Share Limit”). In addition, the Share Limit shall automatically
increase on January 1 of each calendar year during the term of the Incentive Plan, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) three percent
(3%) of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding
calendar year or (ii) such number of shares of the Company’s common stock as may be established by the Administrator.
The
following other limits are also contained in the Incentive Plan. These limits are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Share Limit
for the plan described above.
●
The
maximum number of shares that may be delivered pursuant to options qualified as incentive stock options granted under the plan is
the Share Limit. (For clarity, any shares issued in respect of incentive stock options granted under the plan will also count against
the overall Share Limit above.)
●
Awards
that are granted under the Incentive Plan during any one calendar year to any person who, on the grant date of the award, is a Non-Employee
Director shall not exceed the number of shares that produce a grant date fair value for the award that, when combined with (i) the
grant date fair value of any other awards granted under the Incentive Plan during that same calendar year to that individual in his
or her capacity as a Non-Employee Director and (ii) the dollar amount of all other cash compensation payable by Wellgistics Health
to such Non-Employee Director for his or her services in such capacity during that same calendar year (regardless of whether deferred
and excluding any interest or earnings on any portion of such amount that may be deferred), is $750,000; provided that this
limit is $1,000,000 as to any new Non-Employee Director for the calendar year in which the non-employee director is first elected
or appointed to the board of directors. For purposes of this limit, the “grant date fair value” of an award means the
value of the award as of the date of grant of the award and as determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) or successor provision but excluding the impact of estimated
forfeitures related to service-based vesting provisions. This limit does not apply to, and will be determined without taking into
account, any award granted to an individual who, on the grant date of the award, is an officer or employee of Wellgistics Health
or one of its subsidiaries. This limit applies on an individual basis and not on an aggregate basis to all Non-Employee Directors
as a group.
Awards.
The Incentive Plan authorizes stock options, stock appreciation rights, and other forms of awards granted or denominated in the Company’s
common stock or units of the Company’s common stock, as well as cash bonus awards. The Incentive Plan retains flexibility to offer
competitive incentives and to tailor benefits to specific needs and circumstances. Any award may be structured to be paid or settled
in cash.
A
stock option is the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a future date at a specified price per share (the
“exercise price”). The per share exercise price of an option generally may not be less than the fair market value of a share
of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The maximum term of an option is ten years from the date of grant. An option
may either be an incentive stock option or a nonqualified stock option. Incentive stock option benefits are taxed differently from nonqualified
stock options, as described under “ U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Awards Under the Incentive Plan ” below.
Incentive stock options are also subject to more restrictive terms and are limited in amount by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”) and the Incentive Plan. Incentive stock options may only be granted to employees of Wellgistics Health
or a subsidiary.
A
stock appreciation right is the right to receive payment of an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of share of the Company’s
common stock on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right over the base price of the stock appreciation right. The base price
will be established by the Administrator at the time of grant of the stock appreciation right and generally may not be less than the
fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Stock appreciation rights may be granted in connection
with other awards or independently. The maximum term of a stock appreciation right is ten years from the date of grant.
70
The
other types of awards that may be granted under the Incentive Plan include, without limitation, stock bonuses, restricted stock, restricted
stock units, performance stock, stock units or phantom stock (which are contractual rights to receive shares of stock, or cash based
on the fair market value of a share of stock), dividend equivalents which represent the right to receive a payment based on the dividends
paid on a share of stock over a stated period of time, or similar rights to purchase or acquire shares, and cash awards.
Any
awards under the Incentive Plan (including awards of stock options and stock appreciation rights) may be fully-vested at grant or may
be subject to time- and/or performance-based vesting requirements.
Dividend
Equivalent Rights. The Administrator may grant dividend equivalent rights as a component of an award of restricted stock units or
as a freestanding award. Dividend equivalent rights may be settled in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination
thereof. A dividend equivalent right granted as a component of an award of restricted stock units will provide that such dividend equivalent
right shall be settled only upon settlement or payment of, or lapse of restrictions on, such other award, and that such dividend equivalent
right shall expire or be forfeited or annulled under the same conditions as such other award.
Assumption
and Termination of Awards. If an event occurs in which we do not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of the
Company’s common stock), including, without limitation, a dissolution, merger, combination, consolidation, conversion, exchange
of securities, or other reorganization, or a sale of all or substantially all of the business, stock or assets of the Company, awards
then-outstanding under the Incentive Plan will not automatically become fully vested pursuant to the provisions of the Incentive Plan
so long as such awards are assumed, substituted for or otherwise continued. However, if awards then-outstanding under the Incentive Plan
are to be terminated in such circumstances (without being assumed or substituted for), such awards would generally become fully vested
(with any performance goals applicable to the award being deemed met at the “target” performance level), subject to any exceptions
that the Administrator may provide for in an applicable award agreement. The Administrator also has the discretion to establish other
change in control provisions with respect to awards granted under the Incentive Plan. For example, the Administrator could provide for
the acceleration of vesting or payment of an award in connection with a corporate event or in connection with a termination of the award
holder’s employment.
Transfer
Restrictions. Subject to certain exceptions contained in Section 12(b) of the Incentive Plan, awards under the Incentive Plan generally
are not transferable by the recipient other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and are generally exercisable, during
the recipient’s lifetime, only by the recipient. Any amounts payable or shares issuable pursuant to an award generally will be
paid only to the recipient or the recipient’s beneficiary or representative. The Administrator has discretion, however, to establish
written conditions and procedures for the transfer of awards to other persons or entities, provided that such transfers comply with applicable
federal and state securities laws and are not made for value (other than nominal consideration, settlement of marital property rights,
or for interests in an entity in which more than 50% of the voting securities are held by the award recipient or by the recipient’s
family members).
Adjustments .
As is customary in incentive plans of this nature, each share limit and the number and kind of shares available under the Incentive
Plan and any outstanding awards, as well as the exercise or purchase prices of awards, and performance targets under certain types of
performance-based awards, are subject to adjustment in the event of certain reorganizations, mergers, combinations, recapitalizations,
stock splits, stock dividends, or other similar events that change the number or kind of shares outstanding, and extraordinary dividends
or distributions of property to the stockholders.
No
Limit on Other Authority. The Incentive Plan does not limit the authority of our board of directors or any committee to grant awards
or authorize any other compensation, with or without reference to the Company’s common stock, under any other plan or authority.
Termination
of or Changes to the Incentive Plan. The board of directors may amend or terminate the Incentive Plan at any time and in any manner.
Stockholder approval for an amendment will be required only to the extent then required by applicable law or deemed necessary or advisable
by the board of directors. Unless terminated earlier by the board of directors and subject to any extension that may be approved by stockholders,
the authority to grant new awards under the Incentive Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of its establishment. Outstanding
awards, as well as the Administrator’s authority with respect thereto, generally will continue following the expiration or termination
of the plan. Generally speaking, outstanding awards may be amended by the Administrator (except for a repricing), but the consent of
the award holder is required if the amendment (or any plan amendment) materially and adversely affects the holder.
71
U.S.
Federal Income Tax Consequences of Awards under the Incentive Plan. The following is a summary of some of the material federal income
tax consequences to participants in the Incentive Plan under current federal tax laws. This summary deals with the general tax principles
that apply and is provided only for general information. Certain types of taxes, such as state, local or international income taxes,
are not discussed. Tax laws are complex and subject to change and may vary depending on individual circumstances and from locality to
locality. The summary does not discuss all aspects of income taxation that may be relevant to a participant in light of his or her personal
investment circumstances and, among other considerations, does not describe the deferred compensation provisions of Section 409A of the
Code to the extent an award is subject to and does not satisfy those rules. This summarized tax information is not tax advice.
With
respect to nonqualified stock options, we generally are entitled to deduct and the participant recognizes taxable income in an amount
equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise. With respect
to incentive stock options, we generally are not entitled to a deduction nor does the participant recognize income at the time of exercise,
although the participant may be subject to the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax.
The
current federal income tax consequences of other awards authorized under the Incentive Plan generally follow certain basic patterns:
nontransferable restricted stock subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture results in income recognition equal to the excess of the
fair market value over the price paid (if any) only at the time the restrictions lapse (unless the recipient elects to accelerate recognition
as of the date of grant); restricted stock units, bonuses, stock appreciation rights, cash and stock-based performance awards, dividend
equivalents, stock units, and other types of awards are generally subject to tax at the time of payment; and compensation otherwise effectively
deferred is taxed when paid. In each of the foregoing cases, we will generally have a corresponding deduction at the time the participant
recognizes income.
If
an award is accelerated under the Incentive Plan in connection with a “change in control” (as this term is used under the
Code), we may not be permitted to deduct the portion of the compensation attributable to the acceleration (“parachute payments”)
if we exceed certain threshold limits under the Code (and certain related excise taxes may be triggered). Furthermore, under Section
162(m) of the Code, the aggregate compensation in excess of $1,000,000 payable to current or former named executive officers (including
amounts attributable to equity-based and other incentive awards) may not be deductible by us in certain circumstances.
Other
Elements of Compensation
Retirement
Plans. We intend to adopt and maintain a 401(k) retirement savings plan for our employees, including our NEOs, who satisfy certain
eligibility requirements. We expect that our NEOs will be eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time,
salaried employees. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation,
within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the 401(k) plan. We believe that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred
retirement savings through a 401(k) plan adds to the overall desirability of its executive compensation package and further incentivizes
its employees, including its NEOs, in accordance with its compensation policies.
Health/Welfare
Plans. We intend for all of its full-time, salaried employees, including its NEOs, to be eligible to participate in our health and
welfare plans, which we expect to include: medical, dental, and vision benefits, and life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance.
No
Tax Gross-Ups. We do not intend to make gross-up payments to cover our NEOs’ personal income taxes that may pertain to any
of the compensation or benefits paid or provided by us.

Amounts in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of awards computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards
Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 718. Such grant date fair value does not take into account any estimated forfeitures. The
assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of restricted shares and option awards are set forth in the Critical Accounting
Estimates as disclosed in our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The amount reported in this column
reflects the accounting cost for these awards and does not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the director
upon the vesting of the restricted shares, the exercise of the stock options, or any sale of the underlying shares of common stock.
**
Amounts in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of awards computed in accordance with the Black-Scholes option pricing
model. The Black-Scholes model considers several variables and assumptions in estimating the fair value of stock-based awards. These
variables include the per share fair value of the underlying common stock, exercise price, expected term, risk-free interest rate, expected
annual dividend yield and the expected stock price volatility over the expected term. The Company estimates volatility by reference to
the historical volatilities of the Company. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon
issues similar in duration to the expected term of the equity-settled award.

Independent
Director Compensation Policy
Wellgistics
Health has entered into individual agreements with each of its independent directors pursuant to which each independent director will
receive an annual cash retainer of $50,000.
Wellgistics
Health’s board of directors anticipates that Wellgistics Health will adopt a non-employee director compensation policy in the near
future. The policy will be designed to enable Wellgistics Health to attract and retain, on a long-term basis, highly qualified non-employee
directors. Wellgistics Health anticipates that each non-employee director will be eligible to receive cash retainers (which will be payable
quarterly in arrears and prorated for partial years of service) and certain equity awards.

Rule
10b5-1 Trading Plans
Our
executive officers and directors are encouraged to conduct purchase or sale transactions under a trading plan established pursuant to
Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. Through a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, the executive officer or director contracts with a broker to
buy or sell shares of our common stock on a periodic basis. The broker then executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the
executive officer or director when entering into the plan, without further direction from them. The executive officer or director may
amend or terminate the plan in specified circumstances.

SECURITY
OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The
following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 20, 2025,
for (a) each stockholder known by us to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company’s common stock (b) our NEOs, (c) each of our
directors, and (d) all of our current directors and executive officers as a group. We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance
with SEC rules. The information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. A person is also deemed to
be a beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote
or direct the voting of the Company’s common stock or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the
disposition of such capital stock. Except in cases where community property laws apply or as indicated in the footnotes to this table,
we believe that each stockholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over all shares of the Company’s
common stock shown as beneficially owned by the stockholder.
The
number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder as described in this prospectus is determined under rules issued by the SEC and
includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Each of the stockholders listed has sole voting and investment power
with respect to the shares beneficially owned by the stockholder unless noted otherwise, subject to community property laws where applicable.

The
only equity compensation plan that has been approved by the Company’s security holders and currently is in full force and effect
is the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan was approved by the Company on October 29, 2024. The Incentive Plan provides an opportunity
for any employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company, subject to any limitations provided by federal or state securities
laws, to receive (i) incentive stock options (to eligible employees only); (ii) nonqualified stock options; (iii) stock appreciation
rights; (iv) restricted stock; (v) stock awards; (vi) stock bonuses; (vii) restricted stock units; (viii) performance stock; (ix) stock
units or phantom stock (contractual rights to receive shares of stock, or cash based on the fair market value of a share of stock); (x)
dividend equivalents which represent the right to receive a payment based on the dividends paid on a share of stock over a stated period
of time, or similar rights to purchase or acquire shares; and (xi) cash awards.
In
making such determinations, the Company’s board of directors (or the Compensation Committee) may take into account the nature of
the services rendered by such person, his or her present and potential future contribution to the Company’s success, and such other
factors as the Company’s board of directors (or the Compensation Committee) in its discretion shall deem relevant. Incentive stock
options granted under the Incentive Plan are intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section
422 of the Code. Nonqualified (non-statutory stock options) granted under the Incentive Plan are not intended to qualify as incentive
stock options under the Code.
The
Incentive Plan is intended to secure for the Company the benefits arising from ownership of the Company’s common stock by the employees,
officers, directors and consultants of the Company, all of whom are and will be responsible for the Company’s future growth. The
Incentive Plan is designed to help attract and retain for the Company, qualified personnel for positions of exceptional responsibility,
to reward employees, officers, directors, and consultants for their services to the Company and to motivate such individuals through
added incentives to further contribute to the success of the Company.

Subject
to adjustment in connection with the payment of a stock dividend, a stock split or subdivision or combination of the shares of common
stock, or a reorganization or reclassification of the Company’s common stock, the maximum aggregate number of shares of common
stock which may be issued pursuant to awards under the Incentive Plan is 43,506,064 shares of common stock, which automatically increases
on January 1 of each calendar year during the term of the Incentive Plan, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) three percent (3%)
of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding
calendar year or (ii) such number of shares of the Company’s common stock as may be established by the Administrator.
As
of the date of this Annual Report, a total of 43,506,064 shares of common stock remain available for awards under the Incentive Plan.

CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Director
Independence
Our
common stock is traded on Nasdaq under the ticker “WGRX”. Compensation arrangements for our named executive officers and
our directors are described elsewhere in this Annual Report under the sections entitled “ Executive Compensation ” and
“ Director Compensation .”
Under
Nasdaq’s rules and listing standards, a majority of the members of our board of directors must satisfy Nasdaq’s criteria
for “independence.” Under applicable Nasdaq rules, no director qualifies as independent unless our board of directors affirmatively
determines that the director does not have a relationship with us that would impair independence (directly or as a partner, stockholder
or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us). Our board of directors has determined that all members of our board of
directors, except Prashant Patel, are independent directors, including for purposes of Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. Mr. Patel
is not independent as a result of his position as our executive officer. In making these determinations, our board of directors considered
the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board
of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our shares by each non-employee
director and the transactions described below.
Related
Transactions
Except
as set forth below, since January 1, 2023, there has not been nor are there currently proposed any transactions or series of similar
transactions to which we were or are to be a party in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of
our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years and in which any of our directors or executive officers or any holder
of more than 5% of our common stock or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or
indirect material interest.
Wood
Sage Membership Interest Purchase Agreement
In
January 2023, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Wood Sage MIPA”) with Nikul Panchal, an individual

Wellgistics
LLC Membership Interest Purchase Agreement
During
May 2023, we entered into the Wellgistics MIPA, whereby we agreed to acquire all of the issued outstanding membership interests of Wellgistics
LLC.
76
On
August 4, 2023, the Company and Wellgistics LLC amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the termination date of the Wellgistics MIPA to
no later than December 26, 2023, and designate Brian Norton as a representative who may act on behalf of all named sellers in the Wellgistics
MIPA. On December 26, 2023, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the termination date to March
29, 2024. On March 22, 2024, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the termination date to August
31, 2024, and to provide for the Company to extend such date for a maximum of ninety days, among other things.
On
August 23, 2024, the Company and Wellgistics LLC entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Wellgistics MIPA, which amended the purchase
price to be paid by us for acquiring Wellgistics LLC, the closing date of the transaction, and certain other terms and conditions. The
purchase price that we agreed to pay Wellgistics LLC under the revised agreement consists of:
●
a
closing cash payment of $10 million, $1 million of which is payable in immediately available funds to Zions Bank, a creditor of Wellgistics
LLC, by wire transfer, and the remainder of which is due no later than the earlier of 45 calendar days following effectiveness of
this registration statement and August 30, 2025;
●
a
promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $15 million plus simple interest accruing annually equal to the “Prime
Rate” as published by the Wall Street Journal on January 1 of the applicable year, together payable in three equal annual
installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date that this registration statement becomes effective;
●
bonus
payments in the form of the Company’s common stock equaling an aggregate value of $10 million that vest over three years and
are payable in three equal annual installments;
●
bonus
payments in the form of the Company’s common stock in an aggregate amount of up to $5 million that vest only if certain financial
metrics are met, with unvested shares of common stock subject to repurchase by us for a nominal purchase price if such financial
metrics are not met; and
●
contingent
bonus payments consisting of 50% cash and 50% the Company’s common stock to the extent that our EBITDA is in excess of 110%
of certain established targets for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2026.
On
August 30, 2024, we closed on the acquisition of Wellgistics LLC, thereby making Wellgistics LLC—a company focused on wholesale
operations including the distribution and fulfillment of certain pharmaceutical medications to a network of independent pharmacies meant
to improve market access to and patient outcomes regarding the medications—a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On
November 4, 2024, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to convert the $10 million and $5 million respective
bonus payments into an immediate share issuance of 3,999,335 shares of restricted the Company’s common stock. 2,666,223 shares
of common stock vest in equal annual installments over a period of three years. These shares of common stock are not subject to repurchase
by us. 1,333,112 shares have been fully issued, but vest only upon the achievement of certain financial metrics. In the event the stated
metrics for the applicable year are not achieved, we can repurchase the applicable portion of the 1,333,112 unvested shares for nominal
consideration of $0.0001 per share.
On
March 6, 2025, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the due date of the $10 million closing
cash payment such that the closing cash payment will be due upon the earlier of (i) 120 calendar days following effectiveness of the
Registration Statement on Form S-1 that we filed with the SEC on July 22, 2024, as subsequently amended and (ii) or August 30, 2025.

Wood Sage Agreement, Wood Sage agreed to provide management and other administrative services and assistance in return for payment in
the amount of $265,881.44. On September 29, 2023, Wood Sage and the Company entered into a termination agreement whereby we terminated
the Master Service Agreement, as well as any amendments thereto, and released Wood Sage and the Company from their respective covenants,
agreements, and undertakings made thereunder.

Indemnification
Agreements
On
January 9, 2024, Wellgistics Health entered into an indemnification agreement with Tim Canning, its former Chief Executive Officer. The
agreement required Wellgistics Health to indemnify Mr. Canning for certain expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred
by him in certain actions or proceedings arising out of his services as Wellgistics Health’s Chief Executive Officer.
We
intend to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that will, among other things, require us to
indemnify our directors and executive officers for certain expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by such directors
and executive officers in generally any action or proceeding arising out of their services as directors or executive officers of the
Company or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the Company’s request. We believe that indemnification
agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. These indemnification provisions may discourage
stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties, and may reduce the likelihood of derivative
litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit Wellgistics Health and its stockholders.
A stockholder’s investment may decline in value to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors
and officers pursuant to the indemnification provisions.
Related
Party Transaction Policy
Our
board of directors intends to adopt a written related person policy to set forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval
or ratification of related person transactions. This policy will cover any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of
similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which we are to be a participant, the amount involved exceeds $100,000 and a related
person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including purchases of goods or services by or from the related person
or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness and employment by us of a related

Policy
on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Public Accountant
Consistent
with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing
the work of our independent registered public accounting firm. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee has established
a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm
Prior
to engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm for the next year’s audit, management will submit an aggregate
of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services to the Audit Committee for approval.
1.
Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work that generally
only an independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits,
and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards.
2.
Audit-Related services, if any, are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by an independent
registered public accounting firm, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special
procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements.
3.
Tax services, if any, include all services performed by an independent registered public accounting firm’s tax personnel
except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance,
tax planning, and tax advice.
4.
Other Fees are those associated with services not captured in the other categories. The Company generally does not request
such services from our independent registered public accounting firm.
Prior
to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the Audit Committee
requires our independent registered public accounting firm and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout
the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage our independent registered
public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee
requires specific pre-approval before engaging our independent registered public accounting firm.
The
Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must
report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
