The definitive proxy statement and proxy card will be delivered to the stockholders of the Company in advance of the special meeting relating to the proposed acquisition. This Schedule 14A is not a substitute for the proxy statement or any other document that may be filed by the Company with the SEC. THE COMPANYS STOCKHOLDERS AND INVESTORS ARE URGED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE AND ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED BY EACH OF PARENT AND THE COMPANY WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE THEREIN BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION AND THE PARTIES TO THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION.

Participants in the Solicitation
This Schedule 14A does not constitute a solicitation of proxy, an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities. Parent, the Company and their respective directors, executive officers and certain employees may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the stockholders of the Company in connection with the proposed acquisition. Information regarding Parents directors and executive officers is contained in Parents Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on February 14, 2023, and its definitive proxy statement for the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on March 23, 2023.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Schedule 14A contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding, among other things, the acquisition of the Company by Parent, potential contingent consideration, and the development and commercialization of certain biological compounds, including the therapeutic and commercial potential of KRAZATI® (adagrasib), sitravatinib (TAM receptor inhibitor), MRTX1719 (MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor),
MRTX0902 (SOS1 inhibitor), MRTX1133 (selective KRASG12D inhibitor), and the Companys other technologies and products in development. These statements may be identified by the fact they use words such as should, could, expect, anticipate, estimate, target, may, project, guidance, intend, plan, believe, will and other words and terms of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance, although not all forward-looking statements contain such terms. All statements that are not statements of historical facts are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions, and such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including factors that could delay, divert or change any of them, and could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from current expectations. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Actual results may differ materially from current expectations because of numerous risks and uncertainties including with respect to (i) the approval of the Companys stockholders for the proposed acquisition, which may be delayed or may not be obtained, (ii) whether the contingent consideration under the CVR will become payable, (iii) the risk that the expected benefits or synergies of the acquisition will not be realized, (iv) the risk that legal proceedings may be instituted related to the merger agreement, (v) any competing offers or acquisition proposals for the Company, (vi) the possibility that various conditions to the consummation of the acquisition may not be satisfied or waived, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the acquisition and (vii) unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to the proposed acquisition, the response of business partners and competitors to the announcement of the proposed acquisition and/or potential difficulties in employee retention as a result of the announcement and pendency of the proposed acquisition. The actual financial impact of this transaction may differ from the expected financial impact described in this Schedule 14A. In addition, the compounds described in this Schedule 14A are subject to all the risks inherent in the drug development process, and there can be no assurance that the development of these compounds will be commercially successful. Forward-looking statements in this Schedule 14A should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect Parents business, particularly those identified in the cautionary factors discussion in Parents Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the Companys business, particularly those identified in the cautionary factors discussion in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as other documents that may be filed by Parent or the Company from time to time with the SEC. Neither Parent nor the Company undertakes any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The forward-looking statements made in this Schedule 14A relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made.
