As described in Item 5.07 below, on June 12, 2025, Mind Medicine (MindMed) Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2025 Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of the Mind Medicine (MindMed) Inc. 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2025 Equity Incentive Plan”).

The 2025 Equity Incentive Plan was previously approved, subject to shareholder approval, by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on April 22, 2025.
The 2025 Equity Incentive Plan authorizes for issuance an aggregate of 4,500,000 common shares, no par value per share, of the Company (“Common Shares”). Additional information regarding the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, including a summary of the material terms of the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, is set forth in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2025, which information is incorporated herein by reference. Such information and the foregoing description of the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Company’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
