On December 18, 2025, Cognition Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement<sup>SM</sup> (the "Sales Agreement") with Jefferies LLC ("Jefferies"), pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, at its option, shares (the "Shares") of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), through or to Jefferies, as sales agent or principal (the "ATM Offering"). Pursuant to the prospectus supplement (the "ATM Prospectus Supplement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 18, 2025, the Company may sell up to an aggregate of $75,000,000 of shares of its Common Stock.

Any Shares to be offered and sold under the Sales Agreement will be issued and sold by methods deemed to be an "at the market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or in negotiated transactions, if authorized by the Company. On December 18, 2025, the Company filed the ATM Prospectus Supplement with the SEC in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. The legal opinion of Goodwin Procter LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to the ATM Offering is attached as Exhibit 5.2 to the registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed on December 18, 2025, and is incorporated by reference herein (the "Registration Statement").

Subject to the terms of the Sales Agreement, Jefferies will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares from time to time, based upon the Company's instructions (including any price, time or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions the Company may impose). The Company cannot provide any assurances that it will issue any Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. The Company will pay Jefferies a commission of 3.0% of the gross sales price per share of Common Stock sold under the Sales Agreement, if any. The Company has also agreed to provide Jefferies with customary indemnification rights.

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares nor shall there be any sale of the Shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sales Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 1.2 to the Registration Statement and is incorporated by reference herein.
