Q: Will Scilex management take any
actions with respect to the substantial “naked short” positions of
Scilex common stock that represents approximately three times the
public float of Scilex common stock?
A: Yes. The management teams of both Scilex and Sorrento are in
consultation with their outside legal counsel to explore all legal
avenues to resolve the imbalance of the substantial “naked short”
positions of Scilex common stock estimated to be approximately 8.4
million or more shares of Scilex common stock as compared to the
limited public float of approximately 2.5 million shares of Scilex
common stock.
Scilex and Sorrento will send a written notification to the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), which oversees
U.S. broker-dealers, to advise FINRA of the substantial “naked
short” positions of Scilex common stock. Sorrento and Scilex will
offer to work closely with FINRA and other regulatory agencies to
enforce compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations
governing market participants, which strictly prohibit intentional
or abusive “naked shorting” of publicly traded securities.

Dear Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. Stockholder:
As Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sorrento”)
previously announced, on December 29, 2022 our board of directors
declared a stock dividend (the “Dividend”) consisting of an
aggregate of 76,000,000 shares (the “Dividend Stock”) of common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Scilex Holding Company
(“Scilex Common Stock”) held by Sorrento to record holders of (i)
Sorrento’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (such stock,
the “Sorrento Common Stock” and such record holders, the “Record
Common Holders”) as of the close of business on January 9, 2023
(the “Record Date”), and (ii) certain warrants to purchase Sorrento
Common Stock that, among other things, have not been exercised
prior to the ex-dividend date under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock
Market LLC (and which have or may have the right to participate in
the Dividend pursuant to the terms of their respective warrants)
(the “Record Warrant Holders” and together with the Record Common
Holders, the “Record Holders”), which Dividend shall be paid on
January 19, 2023 (the “Payment Date”) and shall be apportioned on a
pro rata basis among the Record Holders in accordance with each
Record Holder’s ownership percentage of Sorrento Common Stock
(assuming the full exercise of all outstanding warrants to purchase
Sorrento Common Stock) as of the Record Date as set forth in the
records of Sorrento’s transfer agent (with respect to the Record
Common Holders) and Sorrento (with respect to the Record Warrant

Each Record Common Holder will receive (and each
applicable Record Warrantholder will be entitled to receive
following the exercise of such holder’s applicable warrants)
0.1410127 of a share of Scilex Common Stock for each one (1) share
of Sorrento Common Stock held (or underlying the applicable
warrants) by such Record Holder as of the close of business on the
Record Date. The Dividend Stock will be subject to certain transfer
restrictions through May 11, 2023, as more fully described in the

shares of Scilex Common Stock will be issued in the Dividend. To
the extent a Record Holder of Sorrento would otherwise be entitled

the product obtained by multiplying (a) the closing price of Scilex
Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the Record Date, by

otherwise issuable to such equityholder in connection with the
Dividend).
You should consult your own tax advisor as to
the particular tax consequences of the Dividend, including
potential tax consequences under state, local, and non-U.S. tax
laws.
The Dividend does not require Sorrento
stockholder approval, and you do not need to take any action to
receive your Dividend Stock. Upon the payment of the Dividend, you
will own common stock in both Sorrento (if you retained this stock
following the Record Date) and Scilex. Sorrento Common Stock is
expected to continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under
the ticker symbol “SRNE” and Scilex Common Stock is expected to
continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker

Scilex is an innovative revenue-generating
company focused on acquiring, developing and commercializing
non-opioid pain management products for the treatment of acute and
chronic pain. Scilex believes that its innovative non-opioid
product portfolio has the potential to provide effective pain
management therapies that can have a transformative impact on

On the payment date for the Dividend, each
Record Common Holder will receive (and each applicable Record
Warrantholder will be entitled to receive following the exercise of
such holder’s applicable warrants) 0.1410127 of a share of Scilex
Common Stock for each one (1) share of Sorrento Common Stock held
(or underlying the applicable warrants) by such Record Holder as of
the close of business on the Record Date. In lieu of receiving
fractional shares of Dividend Stock otherwise apportioned to the
Record Common Holder, each Record Common Holder will receive cash
representing the fair market value of such fractional shares. The
Dividend Stock will be subject to certain transfer restrictions
through May 11, 2023, as more fully described below. Payment of the
Dividend is conditioned upon the Sorrento Board not revoking the
dividend prior to the Payment Date.
Immediately after Sorrento completes the
Dividend, Sorrento will hold approximately 52.1% of our currently
outstanding voting stock.
You are urged to consult your tax
advisor as to the particular U.S. federal, state, local, and
non-U.S. tax consequences to you of receiving the
Dividend.
If you are a corporate U.S. Holder (as defined
below), you may be eligible for a dividends-received deduction
(subject to certain requirements and limitations) with respect to
your receipt of the Dividend, but the Dividend may be subject to
certain “extraordinary dividend” provisions of the U.S. Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Such provisions may
result in a reduction in the adjusted basis of your Sorrento Common
Stock and, potentially, recognition of gain.
If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder (as
defined below), the Dividend (including cash paid in lieu of
fractional shares) to be made to you may be subject to backup
withholding at a rate of 24% of the fair market value of such
Dividend, unless you provide a correct taxpayer identification
number by delivering a properly executed IRS Form W-9 (or successor
form).
If you are not a U.S. Holder (as defined below),
the Dividend (including cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) to
be made to you may be subject to withholding at a rate of 30% of
the fair market value of such Dividend, unless you establish an
entitlement to a reduced rate of withholding by providing a
properly executed IRS Form W-8 BEN, W-8BEN-E, or other applicable
IRS Form W-8 (or successor form).
As used above, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial
owner of Sorrento Common Stock that for U.S. federal income tax
purposes is (a) an individual who is a citizen or resident of
the United States; (b) a corporation created or organized
under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the
District of Columbia; (c) an estate, the income of which is
subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its
source; or (d) a trust, if a court within the United States is
able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the
trust and one or more United States persons has the authority to
control all substantial decisions of the trust, or, if the trust
was in existence on August 20, 1996, and it has elected to continue
to be treated as a United States person.
The Dividend (including cash paid in lieu of
fractional shares of Dividend Stock) may be includable in ordinary
taxable income to you in the year that includes the Payment Date to
the extent of a portion of Sorrento’s current and accumulated
earnings and profits. To the extent that the fair market value of
the Dividend exceeds Sorrento’s current and accumulated earnings
and profits, the Dividend will first be treated as a non-taxable
return of basis, and any amounts in excess of such adjusted basis
will constitute capital gain.
No vote or other action is required by you to
receive the Dividend Stock. You will not be required to pay
anything to Sorrento or Scilex for the new shares or to surrender
any of your shares of Sorrento Common Stock. We are not asking you
for a proxy, and you should not send us a proxy or your share
certificates.
In reviewing this information statement,

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences: |
The Dividend (including cash paid in lieu of fractional shares of
Dividend Stock) may be includable in ordinary taxable income to you
in the year that includes the Payment Date to the extent of a
portion of Sorrento’s current and accumulated earnings and profits.
To the extent that the fair market value of the Dividend exceeds
Sorrento’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, the
Dividend will first be treated as a non-taxable return of basis,
and any amounts in excess of such adjusted basis will constitute
capital gain.If you are a corporate U.S. Holder, you may be
eligible for a dividends-received deduction (subject to certain
requirements and limitations) with respect to your receipt of the
Dividend, but the Dividend may be subject to certain “extraordinary
dividend” provisions of the Code. Such provisions may result in a
reduction of the adjusted basis of your Sorrento Common Stock and,
potentially, recognition of gain.If you are not a U.S. Holder, the
Dividend to be made to you may be subject to withholding at a rate
of 30% of the fair market value of such Dividend, unless you
establish an entitlement to a reduced rate of withholding by
providing a properly executed IRS Form W-8 BEN, W-8BEN-E, or other
applicable IRS Form W-8 (or successor form).This discussion does
not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxes. Furthermore,
the discussion above is based upon the provisions of the Code, and
Treasury regulations, rulings, and judicial decisions thereunder as
of the date hereof, and such authorities may be repealed, revoked,
or modified, possibly retroactively, and are subject to differing
interpretations which could result in U.S. federal income tax
consequences different from those discussed above. You are urged to
consult your tax advisor as to the particular U.S. federal, state,
local, and non-U.S. tax consequences to you of receiving the
Dividend. |

About Sorrento Therapeutics,
Inc.
Sorrento is a clinical and commercial stage biopharmaceutical
company developing new therapies to treat cancer, pain (non-opioid
treatments), autoimmune disease and COVID-19. Sorrento's
multimodal, multipronged approach to fighting cancer is made
possible by its extensive immuno-oncology platforms, including key
assets such as Abivertinib, next-generation tyrosine kinase
inhibitors (“TKIs”), fully human antibodies (“G-MAB™ library”),
immuno-cellular therapies (“DAR-T™”), antibody-drug conjugates
(“ADCs”), and oncolytic virus (“Seprehvec™”). Sorrento is also
developing potential antiviral therapies and vaccines against
coronaviruses, including STI-1558, COVI-MSC™; and diagnostic test
solutions, including COVIMARK™.
Sorrento's commitment to life-enhancing therapies for patients
is also demonstrated by our effort to advance a TRPV1 agonist,
non-opioid pain management small molecule, resiniferatoxin (“RTX”),
and SP-102 (10 mg, dexamethasone sodium phosphate viscous gel)
(SEMDEXA™), a novel, viscous gel formulation of a widely used
corticosteroid for epidural injections to treat lumbosacral
radicular pain, or sciatica, and to commercialize ZTlido®
(lidocaine topical system) 1.8% for the treatment of postherpetic
neuralgia (PHN). RTX has been cleared for a Phase II trial for
intractable pain associated with cancer and a Phase II trial in
osteoarthritis patients. Positive final results from the Phase III
Pivotal Trial C.L.E.A.R. Program for SEMDEXA™, its novel,
non-opioid product for the treatment of lumbosacral radicular pain
(sciatica), were announced in March 2022. ZTlido® was approved
by the FDA on February 28, 2018.For more information
