Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Amendment to Merger Agreement
On July 6, 2026, InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc., a
company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (the “Company”), Indigo Merger Sub Corp., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First Merger Sub”), Indigo Merger Sub II, LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Second Merger Sub” and, together
with First Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”), and Mentari Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Mentari”),
entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Amendment”), which amends
the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of May 19, 2026 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”),
by and among the Company, the Merger Subs, and Mentari.
A description of the Merger Agreement prior to
the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Merger”) was previously reported in the Current Report
on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 19, 2026.
The Amendment (i) clarifies the sequencing of
the Contemplated Transactions (as defined in the Merger Agreement), including by providing that the Company will effect a name change
to “Mentari Therapeutics, Inc.” prior to the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and will redomesticate from
the Province of British Columbia to the State of Nevada on the Closing Date but prior to the filing of the certificate of merger, and
will effect the Nasdaq Reverse Split (as defined in the Merger Agreement), if any, prior to the First Effective Time (as defined in the
Merger Agreement); (ii) introduces the concept of a Company PIPE Amendment (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to facilitate potential
additional private placement financing of Mentari pre-closing and clarifies the impact of such additional potential financing on the Exchange
Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement); and (iii) clarifies the intended tax treatment of the Merger by, among other things, removing
the contingency relating to a potential redomestication of the Company to the Cayman Islands and confirming that the First Merger and
the Second Merger (as such terms are defined in the Merger Agreement), taken together, are intended to constitute an integrated transaction
that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Except as expressly modified by the Amendment,
all terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement remain in full force and effect.
The foregoing summary of the Amendment does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 2.2
to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On July 6, 2026, the Company and Mentari issued
a joint press release announcing the entry into the Amendment, as well as the filing on July 2, 2026 of a registration statement on Form
S-4 (the “Form S-4”) containing a preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus and management information circular
with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction contemplated therein.

except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

to continue Parent out of the Province of British Columbia to Nevada (the “Continuation”). At the Closing, (i) the
Parties shall cause the First Merger to be consummated by executing and filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a

hereto as Exhibit D-1 and incorporated herein by reference (the “First Certificate of Merger”) and (ii) the Parties

time of the filing of such Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be
specified in such Certificate of Merger with the consent of Parent and the Company (the time as of which the Merger becomes effective
being referred to as the “First Effective Time”). The Second Merger shall become effective at the time of the filing
of such Second Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be specified in
such Second Certificate of Merger with the consent of Parent and the Company (the time as of which the Second Merger becomes effective
being referred to as the “Second Effective Time”).
3
1.2.3 Section 2.4(b)(iii) of the Merger Agreement shall be, and hereby is, amended and replaced in its
entirety with the following:
(iii) The Organizational Documents
of Parent shall be identical to the Organizational Documents of Parent immediately prior to the Second Effective Time; provided, however,
that immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, Parent shall adopt a resolution of the Parent Board in accordance with Parent's Organizational
Documents to (A) appoint new directors of Parent in accordance with subclause (b)(iv) below, and (B) make such other changes as are mutually
agreeable to Parent and the Company (such resolution, together with the Parent Name Change and the continuation of Parent from the Province
of British Columbia to Nevada and the First Parent Charter Amendment, the “Parent Charter Amendment”).
1.2.4 Section 2.11 of the Merger Agreement shall be, and hereby is, amended and replaced in its entirety
with the following:
2.11 Intended
Tax Treatment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes, (i)
the First Merger and the Second Merger, taken together, are intended to constitute an integrated transaction described in Rev. Rul. 2001-46,
2001-2 C.B. 321 that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and (ii) Section 367
of the Code shall not apply to the Merger (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The Parties adopt this Agreement as a “plan
of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a).
1.2.5 References to “Parent,” “Parent Common Shares,” “Parent Convertible Preferred
Shares,” “Parent Outstanding Shares” and other similar terms shall be deemed to include references to Parent, and to
the corresponding shares and other attributes of Parent, in each case as they exist following the Continuation, mutatis mutandis.
Article
2 Miscellaneous
2.1. Except
as specifically modified herein, the Merger Agreement remains in full force and effect, and the Parties hereto reserve all of their respective
rights and remedies with respect to all other matters and claims, whether known or unknown, arising under the Merger Agreement. On and
after the date hereof, each reference to the Merger Agreement in the Merger Agreement or any other document or instrument delivered in
connection therewith shall mean the Merger Agreement as amended by this Amendment. The Merger Agreement (including as amended hereby)
and the other schedules, exhibits, certificates, instruments and agreements referred to in the Merger Agreement constitute the entire
agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the Parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded and shall remain
in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
2.2. This
Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto were in the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed
Amendment (in counterparts or otherwise) by all Parties by electronic transmission in PDF format shall be sufficient to bind the Parties
to the terms and conditions of this Amendment.
2.3. Article
11 of the Merger Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference into this Amendment, mutatis mutandis.

Vancouver, British Columbia and San Francisco,
California--(Newsfile Corp. - July 6, 2026) - InMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: INM) (“InMed” or the “Company”)
today announced that it has entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the previously announced definitive merger agreement
(the “Agreement”) for an all-stock transaction with Mentari Therapeutics, Inc. (“Mentari”), a privately-held biotechnology
company developing therapies for migraine prevention, Indigo Merger Sub Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of InMed, and Indigo Merger Sub
I, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of InMed. InMed also announced that it has filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “S-4”)
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) containing a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and management
information circular in connection with the proposed merger (as amended, the “Merger”) and related transactions contemplated
by the Agreement (the Merger together with such related transactions, the “Contemplated Transactions”).
Amendment to the Agreement
The Amendment, among other things, (i) clarifies
the sequencing of the Contemplated Transactions, (ii) reflects clarifications regarding the impact of the pre-closing financing on the
exchange ratio , and (iii) clarifies the intended tax treatment of the Merger. Except as specifically modified by the Amendment, the Agreement
remains in full force and effect.
The Merger has received approval by the Boards
of Directors of InMed and Mentari and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to certain closing conditions, including,
among others, approval by the shareholders of InMed and the stockholders of Mentari, the effectiveness of the S-4, and the satisfaction
of other customary closing conditions.
For further information regarding the Merger,
refer to the Company’s press release dated May 19, 2026.
Filing of Registration Statement on Form
S-4
InMed filed on July 2, 2026 the S-4 containing
a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and management information circular with the SEC in connection with the Merger. The S-4 outlines
the strategic rationale and merits of the Merger, as well as the processes undertaken by InMed and Mentari and their respective Boards
of Directors in reaching their recommendations. While the S-4 has not yet become effective and the information contained therein is subject
to change (including in respect of the Amendment), it provides important information about the Contemplated Transactions. Once declared

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release,
other than purely historical information, may constitute “forward- looking statements” within the meaning of the federal
securities laws, including for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, express or implied statements relating to
InMed’s and Mentari’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the Merger, the Private
Placement, and the combined company’s future, pipeline and business including, without limitation, statements regarding the
expected timing and completion of the Merger and the Private Placement, the expected benefits, opportunities and market potential of
the Merger and the effectiveness of the S-4 and the timing of the special meeting of InMed shareholders. In addition, any statements
that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying
assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These forward- looking statements are based on current expectations and beliefs
concerning future developments and their potential effects. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the
combined company will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties
(some of which are beyond InMed’s, Mentari’s or the combined company’s control) or other assumptions that may
cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, risks related to: the risk that the Merger and the Private Placement
may not be completed on the anticipated timeline or at all; the failure to satisfy the conditions to closing, including obtaining
the requisite approvals of the shareholders of InMed and stockholders of Mentari and the effectiveness of the S-4 filed with the SEC
in connection with the Merger; the risk that the Private Placement may not close or may not result in the anticipated gross
proceeds; the outcome of preclinical studies and clinical trials; regulatory approval processes; the combined company’s
ability to successfully develop and commercialize its product candidates; competition in the migraine treatment market; the combined
company’s reliance on third parties; protection of intellectual property; and the combined company’s need for
substantial additional funding. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of InMed’s,
Mentari’s or the combined company’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those
projected in these forward-looking statements. Nothing in this press release should be regarded as a representation by any person
that the forward-looking statements set forth therein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such
forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements in this press
release, which speak only as of the date they are made and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements
herein and in InMed’s filings with the SEC. InMed, Mentari and the combined company do not undertake or accept any duty to
make any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
