Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders

At our 2024 Annual Meeting, we will ask you:

You may vote at the Annual Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting) if you were a stockholder of Kintara Therapeutics, Inc. at the close of business on May 9, 2024 (the “Record Date”). Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting.

THE MEETING

General

Kintara Therapeutics, Inc., or Kintara, is a Nevada corporation. As used in this proxy statement, “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Kintara. The term “Annual Meeting” as used in this proxy statement refers to the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and includes any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting.

Pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, we are providing access to our proxy materials both by sending you this full set of proxy materials, and by notifying you of the availability of our proxy materials online at http://www.viewproxy.com/kintara/2024, where you can access this proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 (the “Annual Report”), and our proxy card. In addition, our proxy materials provide instructions on how you may request to receive, at no charge, all future proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email. Your election to receive proxy materials by mail or email will remain in effect until you revoke it. Choosing to receive future proxy materials by email will save us the cost of printing and mailing documents to stockholders and will reduce the impact of our annual meetings on the environment.

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting. This proxy statement summarizes the information you will need to know to cast an informed vote at the Annual Meeting. You do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares. You may simply complete, sign and return the proxy card and your votes will be cast for you at the Annual Meeting or you may vote online at http://www.viewproxy.com/kintara/2024. This process is described below in the section entitled “Voting Rights.”

This proxy statement and the Notice of Annual Meeting are dated May 17, 2024. If you owned shares of common stock or Series C Preferred Stock of Kintara at the close of business on May 9, 2024 (the “Record Date”), you are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, as set out below. On the Record Date, there were 55,304,613 shares of common stock and 13,668 shares of Series C Preferred Stock of Kintara outstanding.

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock based on the respective conversion prices and is entitled to vote with the common stock on an as-converted basis. The conversion prices for the Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock are $58.00, $60.70, and $57.50, respectively. As of the Record Date, we had outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock that were convertible into an aggregate of 235,009 shares of common stock.

This year’s Annual Meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format only. The Annual Meeting will convene on June 20, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time. In order to participate in the Annual Meeting live via the Internet, you must register at http://www.viewproxy.com/kintara/2024/vm by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time by June 19, 2024.

If you hold your shares beneficially through a bank or broker, you must provide a legal proxy from your bank or broker during registration and you will be assigned a virtual control number in order to vote your shares during the Annual Meeting. If you are unable to obtain a legal proxy to vote your shares, you will still be able to attend the 2024 Annual Meeting (but will not be able to vote your shares) so long as you demonstrate proof of stock ownership. Instructions on how to connect and participate via the Internet, including how to demonstrate proof of stock ownership, are posted at http://www.viewproxy.com/kintara/2024.

questions submitted in writing during the meeting in accordance with the Annual Meeting procedures which are pertinent to the Company and the meeting matters, as time permits. Questions and answers will be grouped by topic and substantially similar questions will be grouped and answered once.

If you encounter any difficulties accessing the Annual Meeting live audio webcast during the meeting time, please email VirtualMeeting@viewproxy.com or call (866) 612-8937.

Purpose Of Annual Meeting

At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to vote:

Quorum

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The holders of at one-third (1/3) of the voting power of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting as of the Record Date, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Kintara will include proxies marked as abstentions, withheld votes, and broker non-votes to determine the number of shares present at the Annual Meeting.

Voting Rights

Holders of Kintara’s common stock are entitled to one vote at the Annual Meeting for each share of the common stock that he or she owned as of the Record Date.

Holders of Kintara’s Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the common stock. The conversion prices for the Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock are $58.00, $60.70, and $57.50, respectively. Each share of the Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock is convertible into 188,412 shares, 14,801 shares, and 32,096 shares, respectively, of common stock as of the Record Date, based on the $1,000 per share stated value and is entitled to the same number of votes per share.

You may vote your shares at the Annual Meeting via live webcast, over the Internet or by proxy. If you wish to vote your shares electronically at the Annual Meeting, there will be a live link provided during the Annual Meeting (you will need the virtual control number assigned to you).

To vote over the Internet, you must go to http://www.viewproxy.com/kintara/2024. To vote by proxy, complete, sign and return the proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. If you properly complete your proxy card and send it to us in time to vote, your “proxy” (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares as you have directed. If you are a stockholder of record and you return a properly executed proxy card or vote by proxy over the Internet but do not mark the boxes showing how you wish to vote, your proxy will

vote your shares FOR the Board’s nominees for director; FOR the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers on an advisory basis; FOR EVERY THREE YEARS on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation on an advisory basis; and FOR the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024 and, in the discretion of the proxy holders, on any other matters that properly come before the meeting. If any other matter is presented, your proxy will vote your shares as a majority of the Board determines. As of the date of this proxy statement, we know of no other matters that may be presented at the Annual Meeting, other than those listed in the Notice of the Annual Meeting.

If you hold your shares through a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, you should vote your shares in accordance with the steps required by such bank, brokerage firm or other nominee.

Vote Required

Assuming that a quorum is present, the following votes will be required to approve each proposal:

You will not have any dissenters’ rights of appraisal in connection with any of the matters to be voted on at the meeting.

The Board has determined that a vote in favor of the foregoing proposals is in the best interests of Kintara and our stockholders and unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the Board’s nominees for director; “FOR” the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers on an advisory basis; “FOR” the approval of the advisory vote on executive compensation to be held every three years on an advisory basis; and “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm and, in the discretion of the proxy holders, on any other matters that properly come before the meeting.

The Board is not aware of any other matters to be presented for action at the meeting, but if other matters are properly brought before the meeting, shares represented by properly completed proxies received by mail, telephone or the Internet will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons named as proxies.

Broker Non-Votes

Banks and brokers acting as nominees are permitted to use discretionary voting authority to vote proxies for proposals that are deemed “routine” by the New York Stock Exchange (the exchange that makes such determinations) but are not permitted to use discretionary voting authority to vote proxies for proposals that are deemed “non-routine” by the New York Stock Exchange. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a proposal is deemed “non-routine” and a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not have discretionary voting authority with respect to the matter

being considered and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. The determination of which proposals are deemed “routine” versus “non-routine” may not be made by the New York Stock Exchange until after the date on which this proxy statement has been mailed to you. As such, it is important that you provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee, if you wish to determine the voting of your shares.

Under the applicable rules governing such brokers, we believe Proposal 4 to ratify the appointment of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is likely to be considered a “routine” item. This means that brokers may vote using their discretion on such proposals on behalf of beneficial owners who have not furnished voting instructions. In contrast, certain items are considered “non-routine”, and a “broker non-vote” occurs when brokers do not receive voting instructions from beneficial owners with respect to such items because the brokers are not entitled to vote such uninstructed shares. We believe Proposal 1 to elect directors, Proposal 2 to hold on advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers, and Proposal 3 to hold an advisory vote on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation, are likely to be considered “non-routine”, which means that brokers cannot vote your uninstructed shares when they do not receive voting instructions from you. Furthermore, if approval of Proposal 4 is deemed by the New York Stock Exchange to be a “non-routine” matter, brokers will not be permitted to vote on Proposal 4 if the broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

If your shares are held of record by a bank, broker, or other nominee, we urge you to give instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee as to how you wish your shares to be voted so you may participate in the stockholder voting on these important matters.

Changing Your Vote after Voting over the Internet or Revoking Your Proxy

You may change your vote by attending the Annual Meeting and voting online even if you previously voted over the Internet. Alternatively, you may change your vote by contacting Alliance Advisors LLC by phone at (855) 600-2576, or re-voting over the Internet following the instructions provided.

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by:

If your shares are not registered in your own name, you will need appropriate documentation from your stockholder of record to vote at the Annual Meeting. Examples of such documentation include a broker’s statement, letter or other document that will confirm your ownership of shares of Kintara.

Solicitation of Proxies

Kintara will pay the costs of soliciting proxies from our stockholders, directors, officers or employees of Kintara may solicit proxies by mail, telephone or other forms of communication. We will also reimburse banks, brokers, nominees and other fiduciaries for the expenses they incur in forwarding the proxy materials to you.

Kintara has also retained Alliance Advisors LLC to assist it in the solicitation of proxies. Alliance Advisors LLC will solicit proxies on behalf of Kintara from individuals, brokers, bank nominees and other institutional holders in the same manner described above. The fees that will be paid to Alliance Advisors LLC are anticipated to be approximately $14,000, and we will reimburse their out-of-pocket expenses. Kintara has also agreed to indemnify Alliance Advisors LLC against certain claims.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information, as of May 16, 2024, with respect to the beneficial ownership of the outstanding common stock by (i) any holder of more than five (5%) percent; (ii) each of the Company’s named executive officers and directors; and (iii) the Company’s directors and executive officers as a group. Except as otherwise indicated, each of the stockholders listed below has sole voting and investment power over the shares beneficially owned.

* Less than 1%

(1)Except as otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner is c/o Kintara Therapeutics, Inc., 9920 Pacific Heights Blvd, Suite 150, San Diego, CA 92121.

(2)Applicable percentage ownership is based on 55,304,613 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 16, 2024, together with securities exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock within 60 days of May 16, 2024, for each stockholder. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of May 16, 2024, are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding such securities for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

(6) Includes 11,283 shares issuable upon exercise of vested stock options exercisable within 60 days of May 16, 2024.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table

We generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income (Loss)

Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative TSR

While we are required by SEC rules to disclose the relationship between our net income and compensation actually paid to our named executive officers, this is not a metric our Compensation Committee currently uses in evaluating our named executive officers’ compensation as we are a clinical stage, biopharmaceutical company that has not generated any revenues from the sale of products.

All information provided above under the “Pay Versus Performance” heading will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board is currently composed of four directors. Vacancies on the Board may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors or by the sole remaining director. A director elected by the Board to fill a vacancy, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve for the remainder of the full term of that director for which the vacancy was created and until the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified.

Each of the four nominees listed below are incumbent directors. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until the director’s death, resignation or removal. Because the number of nominees properly nominated for the Annual Meeting is the same as the number of directors to be elected, the election of directors at this Annual Meeting is uncontested.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors. In accordance with our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) and Nevada law, a stockholder entitled to vote for the election of directors may withhold authority to vote for certain nominees for directors or may withhold authority to vote for all nominees for directors. Withheld votes and broker non-votes will not be treated as a vote for or against any particular director nominee and will not affect the outcome of the election. Stockholders may not vote, or submit a proxy, for a greater number of nominees than the four nominees named below. The director nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of the four director nominees named below. If any director nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares that would have been voted for that nominee will instead be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by our Board. Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected. Our management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.

Nominees for Election Until the Next Annual Meeting

The following table sets forth the name, age, position and tenure of each of the nominees at the Annual Meeting:

The following includes a brief biography of each of the nominees standing for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting, based on information furnished to us by each director nominee, with each biography including information regarding the experiences, qualifications, attributes or skills that caused the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board to determine that the applicable nominee should serve as a member of our Board.

Board Diversity Matrix (As of May 16, 2024)

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” ALL OF THE NOMINEES FOR ELECTION AS DIRECTORS.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors Operations and Meetings

Our Board currently consists of four members. Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until their successors have been elected and qualified or until the earlier of their resignation or removal.

We have no formal policy regarding board diversity. Our priority in selection of board members is identification of members who will further the interests of our stockholders through their established record of professional accomplishment, the ability to contribute positively to the collaborative culture among board members, knowledge of our business and understanding of the competitive landscape.

Our Board met seven (7) times and acted by written consent four (4) times in fiscal year 2023. Each of the directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board (held during the period for which such directors served on the Board), and (ii) the total number of meetings of all committees of our Board on which the director served (during the periods for which the director served on such committee or committees). Two members of our Board serving at the time attended our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

The Board oversees our business and monitors the performance of our management. In accordance with our corporate governance procedures, the Board does not involve itself in the day-to-day operations of Kintara. Our executive officers and management oversee our day-to-day operations. Our directors fulfill their duties and responsibilities by attending meetings of the Board, which are usually held on at least a quarterly basis. Our directors also discuss business and other matters with other key executives and our principal external advisers (legal counsel, auditors, financial advisors and other consultants).

Independent Directors

Our Board has determined that Robert J. Toth, Jr., Laura Johnson, and Tamara A. Favorito are qualified to serve as independent directors. The standards relied on by the Board in affirmatively determining whether a director is “independent,” in compliance with Nasdaq’s rules, are comprised of those objective standards set forth in the rules promulgated by Nasdaq. The Board is responsible for ensuring that independent directors do not have a relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Nasdaq’s rules, as well as SEC rules, impose additional independence requirements for all members of the Audit Committee. Specifically, in addition to the “independence” requirements discussed above, “independent” audit committee members must: (1) not accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fees from Kintara or any subsidiary of Kintara other than in the member’s capacity as a member of the Board and any Board committee; (2) not be an affiliated person of Kintara or any subsidiary of Kintara; and (3) not have participated in the preparation of the financial statements of Kintara or any current subsidiary of Kintara at any time during the past three years. In addition, Nasdaq’s rules require that all audit committee members be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including Kintara’s balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. The Board believes that the current members of the Audit Committee meet these additional standards.

Audit Committee

The Board has formed an Audit Committee, which currently consists of Tamara A. Favorito, Chair, Robert J. Toth, Jr., and Laura Johnson. Each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules of the SEC and Nasdaq. The Board has determined that each Audit Committee member has

sufficient knowledge in financial and auditing matters to serve on the Audit Committee. In addition, our Board has determined that Ms. Favorito qualifies as an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of SEC regulations and the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. The Audit Committee met four (4) times and acted by written consent one (1) time in fiscal year 2023.

The Audit Committee oversees and monitors our financial reporting process and internal control system, reviews and evaluates the audit performed by our registered independent public accountants and reports to our Board any substantive issues found during the audit. The Audit Committee will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of our registered independent public accountants. The Audit Committee reviews and approves all transactions with affiliated parties. The Board has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee.

A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is posted under the “Investors” tab on our website, which is located at www.kintara.com.

Compensation Committee

The Board has formed a Compensation Committee which consists of Robert J. Toth, Jr., Chair, Laura Johnson, and Tamara A. Favorito, all of whom are independent (as that term is defined under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules). The Compensation Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to (i) corporate governance practices and policies and (ii) compensation matters, including compensation of the directors and senior management of the Company and the administration of compensation plans of the Company. The Compensation Committee did not meet and acted by written consent one (1) time in fiscal year 2023.

The Board has adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee. A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is posted under the “Investors” tab on our website, which is located at www.kintara.com.

The Compensation Committee has engaged Anderson Pay Advisors LLC as our independent compensation consultant. In 2023, Anderson Pay Advisors LLC reviewed both executive and director compensation and did not provide us any other services. Anderson Pay Advisors LLC reported directly to the Compensation Committee and provided guidance on trends in executive and non-employee director compensation, the development of specific executive compensation programs, the composition of our compensation peer group and other matters as directed by the Compensation Committee.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Board has formed a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which currently consists of Laura Johnson, Chair, Robert J. Toth, Jr., and Tamara A. Favorito.

The Board has adopted a written charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. A copy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter is posted under the “Investors” tab on our website, which is located at www.kintara.com.

Nomination of Directors

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board assesses potential candidates to fill perceived needs on the Board of Directors for required skills, expertise, independence and other factors. A director candidate recommended by our stockholders will be considered in the same manner as a nominee recommended by a Board member, management or other sources. Stockholders wishing to recommend a candidate for nomination should contact our Secretary in writing at the Secretary of Kintara at 9920 Pacific Heights Blvd Suite 150 San Diego, CA 92121. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Periodically, our Board will assess the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and the Board leadership structure to ensure the interests of Kintara and our stockholders are best served. Our Board believes the current combination of the two roles is satisfactory at present. Mr. Hoffman, as our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, has extensive knowledge of all aspects of Kintara and our business. We have no policy requiring the combination or separation of leadership roles and our governing documents do not mandate a particular structure. This has allowed, and will continue to allow, our Board the flexibility to establish the most appropriate structure for the Company at any given time.

Our Board is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The Board receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding the Company’s assessment of risks. The Board focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with the Board’s risk strategy. While the Board oversees the Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Related Party Transactions

Other than compensation arrangements for our named executive officers and directors, which are described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation,” since July 1, 2022, there have been no transactions or series of similar transactions to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our executive officers, financial and accounting officers, our directors, our financial managers and all of our employees. The Board is committed to a high standard of corporate governance practices and, through its oversight role, encourages and promotes a culture of ethical business conduct. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted under the “Investors” tab on our website, which is located at www.kintara.com.

Stockholder Communication with the Board of Directors and Attendance at Annual Meetings

PROPOSAL 2

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In accordance with Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Dodd-Frank Act, we are asking stockholders to vote, on an advisory basis, on the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

The Board and the Compensation Committee believe that our Company’s compensation policies and practices are effective in achieving our goals of motivating and retaining our executives by motivating and rewarding excellence in individual and Company performance and aligning our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders. Please read the section of this proxy statement titled “Executive Compensation” for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal year 2023 compensation of our named executive officers.

Proposal 2 is advisory and non-binding on our Board. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee will review and consider the results of this vote when evaluating our executive compensation program. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation.

Proposal 2 is as follows:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as such compensation is disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting of the Stockholders pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K is hereby APPROVED.”

The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or our Board. Our Board and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and, to the extent there is any significant vote against named executive officers compensation as disclosed in the proxy statement, we will consider our stockholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

Approval Required

The approval of this Proposal 2 will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast at the Annual Meeting. As a result, abstentions, broker non-votes, if any, and any other failure to submit a proxy or vote in person at the meeting will not affect the outcome of the vote of this Proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT RELATING TO OUR 2024 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS PURSUANT TO THE SEC’S COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE RULES.

___________________________

PROPOSAL 3

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF HOLDING THE ADVISORY VOTE

ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

___________________________

The Dodd-Frank Act and the SEC rules issued thereunder require stockholders of public companies to vote, on an advisory basis, on how often we should include in our proxy materials the advisory vote on executive compensation described in Proposal 2. Stockholders may indicate whether they would prefer an advisory vote on named executive officer compensation every year, every two years or every three years.

After careful consideration of this Proposal 3, the Board has determined that an advisory vote on executive compensation that occurs once every three years is the most appropriate alternative for Kintara, and therefore our Board recommends that you vote for a three-year interval for the advisory vote on executive compensation for the following reasons:

As an advisory vote, this Proposal 3 is not binding on the Company. Notwithstanding the advisory nature of this vote, the Board values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this Proposal 3, and will consider the outcome of the vote when making its determination as to the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.

Approval Required

With respect to this Proposal 3, the option of one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast will be the frequency alternative that is preferred by our stockholders. As a result, abstentions, broker non-votes, if any, and any other failure to submit a proxy or vote in person at the meeting will not affect the outcome of this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE THAT ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION BE HELD EVERY THREE YEARS.
