Appointment of Director

Effective August 12, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ALX Oncology Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Daniel Curran, M.D. to serve as a Class III director of the Board, for a term expiring at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders. The Board also appointed Dr. Curran to serve as a member of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board. The appointment was made based upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board. In connection with the changes to the Board, the Board increased its size from six directors to seven directors.

Dr. Curran, age 58, has more than 25 years of pharmaceutical experience in strategy, business development, project leadership and development roles. Dr. Curran currently serves as the chief executive officer of Timberlyne Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, since January 2025, and has served as a managing partner at Mountainfield Venture Partners, LLC, a company-creation firm since March 2024. From 2008 to 2023, Dr. Curran has held roles of increasing responsibility at Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Ltd., and most recently served as a senior vice president and the head of the rare genetics and hematology therapeutic area unit from January 2019 to December 2023. Before Dr. Curran joined Takeda, he served as vice president, corporate development at Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc., from 1999 to 2008. Prior to joining Millennium, Dr. Curran held a business development role in the product planning and acquisition group at DuPont Merck Pharmaceuticals, a pharmaceutical company. Dr. Curran currently serves on the board of directors of Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical public company, since August 2025 and serves on the board of directors of Xilio Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical stage biotechnology public company, since December 2020. In addition, Dr. Curran previously served on the board of directors of Tome Biosciences, a private biotechnology company, from January 2024 to November 2024 and also served on the board of directors of Oak Hill Biosciences, a private biotechnology company, from April 2022 to March 2024. Dr. Curran received an M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, an M.B.A. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and a B.S. in chemistry from King’s College.

In accordance with the Company’s outside director compensation policy, Dr. Curran will automatically be granted an initial award of stock options to purchase 40,400 shares of the Company’s common stock on his date of appointment to the Board. The initial award is scheduled to vest in equal installments as to one thirty-sixth of the shares subject to the award on a monthly basis following the award’s grant date, on the same day of the month as the grant date, subject to continued services to the Company through the applicable vesting date. Dr. Curran is also entitled to annual cash compensation and equity awards under the terms of the outside director compensation policy. In addition, the Company entered into an indemnification agreement with Dr. Curran in the same form as the Company’s other directors.

The Board determined that Dr. Curran qualifies as independent under the director independence standards set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the applicable listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Dr. Curran and any other person pursuant to which he was selected to serve on the Board. There are no transactions in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party and in which Dr. Curran has a material interest subject to disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
