To the extent required under Form 8-K,the information set forth below under Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-Kis incorporated herein by reference.

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-BalanceSheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On the Effective Date, the Company entered into the Note Purchase Agreement with Athyrium Opportunities IV Co-Invest1 LP (together with its affiliates, 'Athyrium'), as administrative agent, and the purchasers party thereto from time to time (the 'Purchasers'), including Athyrium, pursuant to which the Purchasers party to the Note Purchase Agreement agreed to purchase from the Company, and the Company agreed to issue to such Purchasers, notes payable by the Company. On the Effective Date, the Company issued to the Purchasers notes in an aggregate principal amount for all such notes of $100.0 million. Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement, $25.0 million in additional notes remains available to the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement.

The obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets, including its intellectual property. The Company also pledged 65% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its subsidiaries, Puma Biotechnology Ltd. and Puma Biotechnology B.V.

The notes issued under the Note Purchase Agreement bear interest at an annual rate equal to the sum of (a) 8.0% and (b) Adjusted Three-Month LIBOR for such Interest Period. The Company is required to make quarterly interest payments on each note issued under the Note Purchase Agreement commencing on the first calendar day of the calendar month following the funding date thereof, and continuing on the first last day of each March, June, September and December through June 30, 2024 (the 'Amortization Date'). Commencing on the Amortization Date, and continuing on the last day of each March, June, September and December thereafter, the Company will make consecutive equal quarterly payments of principal, together with applicable interest, in arrears to each Purchaser, calculated pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement. All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to each note issued under the Note Purchase Agreement is due and payable in full on July 23, 2026 (the 'Maturity Date'). At the Company's option, the Company may prepay the outstanding principal balance of all or any portion of the principal amount of the notes, subject to a prepayment fee equal to (i) a make-whole amount if the prepayment occurs on or prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date and (ii) 2.0% of the amount prepaid if the prepayment occurs after the second anniversary of the Effective Date by on or prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date. Upon prepayment or repayment of all or any portion of the principal amount of the notes (whether on the Maturity Date or otherwise), the Company is also required to pay an exit fee to the Purchasers equal to 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such notes prepaid or repaid.

The Note Purchase Agreement includes affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company, its current subsidiaries and any subsidiaries the Company creates in the future. The affirmative covenants include, among others, covenants requiring the Company to maintain its legal existence and governmental approvals, deliver certain financial reports, maintain insurance coverage and satisfy certain requirements regarding deposit accounts. The Company must also (i) maintain a minimum amount of unrestricted cash in deposit accounts subject to a control agreement in favor of Athyrium at any time and (ii) achieve at least a specified minimum amount of revenue (based on a combination of both sales of NERLYNX in the United States and royalty revenues received by the Company for sales of NERLYNX outside the United States), measured as of the last day of each four consecutive fiscal quarter period. The negative covenants include, among others, restrictions on the Company's transferring collateral, incurring additional indebtedness, engaging in mergers or acquisitions, paying dividends or making other distributions, making investments, creating liens, selling assets and suffering a change in control, in each case subject to certain exceptions.

The Note Purchase Agreement also includes events of default, the occurrence and continuation of which could cause interest to be charged at the rate that is otherwise applicable plus 2.0% and would provide Athyrium, as administrative agent, with the right to exercise remedies against the Company and the collateral securing the new credit facility, including foreclosure against the property securing the obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement, including its cash. These events of default include, among other things, the Company's failure to pay principal or interest due under the Note Purchase Agreement, a breach of certain covenants under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company's insolvency, a material adverse change, the occurrence of any default under certain other indebtedness in an amount greater than $750,000 and one or more judgments against the Company in an amount greater than $750,000 individually or in the aggregate that remains discharged or otherwise satisfied, in each case, as further described in the Note Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Note Purchase Agreement and the notes is only a summary of the material terms thereof, and does not purport to be complete. The description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note Purchase Agreement and the form of note, which will be filed as exhibits to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Qfor the quarter ending September 30, 2021.
