NOTE
This
Supplement No. 1 to Schedule 14A (this “Supplement”) is being filed to supplement the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy
Statement”) of Conduit Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
on October 28, 2024. The Proxy Statement was filed in connection with the Company’s 2024 virtual annual meeting of stockholders.
This Supplement amends and restates two paragraphs, as described below. Both changes are to correct a scrivener’s error.
Except
as provided herein, no other changes have been made to the Proxy Statement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this
Supplement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Proxy Statement. This Supplement is not complete without the Proxy Statement
and should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement.
SUPPLEMENT
TO PROXY STATEMENT
The
paragraph under “Director Independence” under the section entitled “CORPORATE GOVERNANCE” is amended and restated
as follows:
Under
the Nasdaq listing standards, a majority of the members of our Board must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined
by the Board. The Board affirmatively determined that all of the Company’s directors, except for Messrs. Bligh, Tapolczay, and
Regan are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq listing standards. Due to the resignation of Ms. McNealey,
our Board is currently fixed at six members, consisting of 50% independent members and all members of the Audit Committee, Compensation
Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent directors under the applicable Nasdaq listing standards.
The Board intends to add an additional independent director by December 18, 2024, pursuant to the Nasdaq Notice, as defined and discussed
below under “Standing Committees of our Board – Audit Committee.”
The
last paragraph under “Standing Committees of our Board — Audit Committee” under the section entitled “CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE” is amended and restated as follows:
The
Company has until December 18, 2024, to comply with the requirement that the Audit Committee be comprised of at least three independent
directors prior to the expiration of the cure period provided pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(4).
