ImageneBio, Inc. Commitments Disclosure
14. Commitments and Contingencies
In connection with the merger, two actions were filed against the Company and its board of directors in the Supreme Court for the State of New York, County of New York, captioned Smith v. Ikena Oncology, Inc., et al., No. 653576/2025 (filed June 12, 2025) and Kent v. Ikena Oncology, Inc., et al., No. 653588/2025 (filed June 13, 2025) (collectively, the “Complaints”). The Complaints allege that the defendants filed or caused to be filed a materially incomplete and misleading registration statement with the SEC and asserts claims under New York common law for negligent misrepresentation and concealment and negligence. In addition, the Company and its board of directors have received five additional demands from purported stockholders seeking additional disclosures in the registration statement (collectively, the “Demands”). On February 27, 2026, the Complaints were voluntarily dismissed and the Company has received no additional outreach from the purported stockholders who sent the Demands.
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
The Company enters into contracts in the normal course of business with third-party contract organizations for clinical trials, preclinical studies, manufacturing and other services and products for operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination following a certain period after notice and therefore the Company believes that its non-cancelable obligations under these agreements are not material.

About Commitments Disclosures
Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.
Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
