Notice of Guaranteed Delivery for Exercise of Warrants of Cassava Sciences, Inc.

(Not to be used for Signature Guarantees)

On April 15, 2024, Cassava Sciences, Inc. (the "Company") gave notice that it is redeeming, on May 7, 2024 (the "Redemption Date"), all of the Company's outstanding Warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") for a redemption price of $0.001 per Warrant (the "Redemption Price"). The Warrants were issued under the Warrant Agreement, dated as of January 3, 2024 (the "Warrant Agreement"), by and between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as warrant agent (the "Warrant Agent"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase 1.5 shares of Common Stock for a purchase price of $33.00 per Warrant.

The rights of the Warrant holders to exercise their Warrants will end at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on May 6, 2024, the Business Day immediately preceding Redemption Date. At 5:00 p.m. New York City time on May 6, 2024 and thereafter, the Warrants will no longer be exercisable and the holders of unexercised Warrants will have no rights with respect to those Warrants, except to receive the Redemption Price in accordance with the Warrant Agreement. The Company is offering holders of Warrants the opportunity to use this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery if the procedure for the exercise of the Warrants cannot be completed on a timely basis before 5:00 p.m. New York City time on May 6, 2024.

To allow for any settlements of Warrants on a T+2 settlement cycle ahead of the Redemption Date, the Warrants will continue to be listed and trade on Nasdaq until the end of trading on May 2, 2024, the 2nd trading day prior to last date on which Warrants may be exercised. For the avoidance of doubt, Warrant holders may continue to exercise their Warrants until 5:00 p.m. New York City time on May 6, 2024, the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date.

This Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, or a form substantially equivalent hereto, must be used to exercise any Warrants if the procedure for the exercise of the Warrants cannot be completed on a timely basis before 5:00 p.m. New York City time on May 6, 2024.
