Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 4, 2024, Bellevue Life Sciences Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") and Toonon Partners Co., Ltd. ("Toonon") entered into a subscription agreement (the "Subscription Agreement"), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company has agreed to issue and sell to Toonon, and Toonon has agreed to subscribe for and purchase, 222,222 shares (the "PIPE Shares") of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company (the "Series A Preferred Stock") for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000 or $90.00 per share (the "Series A Original Issue Price") of Series A Preferred Stock (the "PIPE Investment"). Prior to closing of the PIPE Investment, the Company intends to file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Designations (the "Certificate of Designations") setting forth the rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock, which have been agreed to between the Company and Toonon. Such rights and preferences include, among others, that (1) dividends will accrue at a rate of 5% per annum of the Series A Original Issue Price (except as otherwise provided for in the Certificate of Designations) to be payable only when, as, and if declared by the board of directors of the Company or as otherwise specifically provided in the Certificate of Designations; (2) the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, into shares of common stock of the Company ("Common Stock") in an amount equal to the quotient of (i) the Series A Original Issue Price plus all unpaid accruing dividends as of the date of the conversion and (ii) the then applicable conversion price (the "Conversion Price") (the Conversion Price shall initially be $9.00); (3) beginning on the one-yearanniversary of the original issue date (the "Original Issue Date"), the Company has the option, in its sole discretion, to redeem all or a portion of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, for an amount equal to the Series A Original Issue Price plus all unpaid accruing dividends as of the date of the redemption; provided, that, for purposes of calculating the accruing dividends in the event of a redemption, dividends will have been deemed to have accrued at a rate of 7.0% per annum of the Series A Original Issue Price (the "Redemption Price"); (4) beginning on the three-year anniversary of the Original Issue Date, any holder of Series A Preferred Stock may demand that the Company redeem all or a portion of such holder's Series A Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the Redemption Price. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Subscription Agreement.

The purpose of the PIPE Investment is to raise additional capital for use by the Company following the closing of its previously announced business combination with OSR Holdings Co., Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Korea ("OSR Holdings") (the "Business Combination"). The Subscription Agreement contain customary representations and warranties of the Company and Toonon, and customary conditions to closing, including (i) the consummation of the Business Combination and (ii) certification by an officer of the Company that the Certificate of Designations has been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and is in full force and effect.

Additionally, pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company and Toonon will enter into a registration rights agreement prior to Closing, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will be obligated to (i) file a registration statement to register the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the PIPE Shares as soon as practicable following the receipt of written demand from Toonon, and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration, subject to certain exceptions. The PIPE Shares to be sold in connection with the PIPE Investment will be exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
