OncoSec Urges Shareholders Not to Fall for Alpha's Disingenuous "Proposal" and Scheme to Prevent Fair Vote at Special Meeting

OncoSec Medical Incorporated (NASDAQ:ONCS) (the "Company" or "OncoSec"), a company developing late-stage intratumoral cancer immunotherapies, today issued the following statement to its shareholders regarding Alpha Holdings, Inc.'s ("Alpha") January 27, 2020 press release:

• Alpha's press release about a "revised binding term sheet" provided to OncoSec is disingenuous and misleading. Nothing has changed about Alpha's so-called "proposal" aside from the expiration date.

• Alpha previously put a 2.5 day expiration on its "proposal." Now, after waiting nearly two weeks, Alpha is resurfacing the exact same proposal, except now with a four-day expiration period. This is meaningless and does nothing to change the poor terms Alpha is purporting to offer shareholders, which a special committee of independent directors and the Company's Board of Directors previously considered and rejected.

• Institutional Shareholders Services Inc. (ISS), a leading independent proxy advisory firm, considered Alpha's "proposal" and reaffirmed its original recommendation that shareholders vote FOR the proposed strategic investment by, and partnership with, CGP and Sirtex¹ (the "CGP/Sirtex Transaction"), noting concerns with "the risks associated with this competing offer," including potential significant dilution of shareholders and "disruption associated with resignations of the CEO and chairman without proposed immediate replacements."²

• As we detailed in our January 21^st letter to shareholders (see this link), there are numerous reasons why Alpha's "proposal" is filled with holes and contingencies, and is based on questionable motives. For the sake of brevity, we won't repeat those reasons here, but please read our last letter for details.

• Alpha's press release today is not surprising. We predicted as much when we stated in our shareholder letter last week that "Alpha's ?proposal' is the sort of tactic we EXPECT to see more of from them in the next few weeks, as it seems that they are doing anything and everything they can to derail the CGP/Sirtex Transaction. Do not let their games distract you from the facts."

• Shareholders deserve a fair meeting, in which all their votes cast are counted. Voting on the WHITE proxy card ? whether you support the CGP/Sirtex Transaction or not ? will ensure your selection is counted.

If you have already voted on the WHITE proxy card, there is no need for you to take any further action at this time.

About OncoSec Medical Incorporated

OncoSec Medical Incorporated (the "Company," "OncoSec," "we" or "our") is a late-stage biotechnology company focused on developing cytokine-based intratumoral immunotherapies to stimulate the body's immune system to target and attack cancer. OncoSec's lead immunotherapy investigational product candidate ? TAVOtm (tavokinogene telseplasmid) ? enables the intratumoral delivery of DNA-based interleukin-12 (IL-12), a naturally occurring protein with immune-stimulating functions. The technology, which employs electroporation, is designed to produce a controlled, localized expression of IL-12 in the tumor microenvironment, enabling the immune system to target and attack tumors throughout the body. OncoSec has built a deep and diverse clinical pipeline utilizing TAVO^TM as a potential treatment for multiple cancer indications either as a monotherapy or in combination with leading checkpoint inhibitors; with the latter potentially enabling OncoSec to address a great unmet medical need in oncology: anti-PD-1 non-responders. Results from recently completed clinical studies of TAVO^TM have demonstrated a local immune response, and subsequently, a systemic effect as either a monotherapy or combination treatment approach. In addition to TAVO^TM, OncoSec is identifying and developing new DNA-encoded therapeutic candidates and tumor indications for use with its new Visceral Lesion Applicator (VLA), to target deep visceral lesions, such as liver, lung or pancreatic lesions.
