A: A quorum will exist at the Meeting if the holders of record of 33 1/3 percent of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy. Shares of the Company’s common stock that are voted to abstain are treated as shares that are represented at the Meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

Q: What vote is required in order for the proposals to be approved?

A: The following table sets forth the required vote for each proposal:

Q: What are broker non-votes?

A: Broker non-votes are shares held by brokers that do not have discretionary authority to vote on the matter and have not received voting instructions from their clients. Brokers holding shares of record for customers generally are not entitled to vote on “non-routine” matters, unless they receive voting instructions from their customers. The proposed ratification of the appointment of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public

Table of Contents

accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 is considered a “routine” matter. Accordingly, brokers are entitled to vote uninstructed shares only with respect to the ratification of the appointment of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm.

Q: How do I vote my shares if I am a record holder?

A: If you are a record holder of shares (that is, the shares are registered with our transfer agent in your name and not the name of your broker or other nominee), you are urged to submit your proxy as soon as possible, so that your shares can be voted at the meeting in accordance with your instructions. Registered stockholders may vote in person at the Meeting, or by sending a personal representative to the Meeting with an appropriate proxy, or by one of the following methods:

• By Internet. www.proxyvote.com;

• By Telephone. 1-800-690-6903

• By Mail. If you received our proxy materials in the mail, you can complete, sign and date the included proxy card and return the proxy card in the prepaid envelope provided;

• During the Annual Meeting. Instructions on how to vote while participating in our annual meeting live via the internet are posted at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INMB2022. We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the Virtual Shareholder Meeting log in page.

Please note that the Internet and telephone voting facilities for registered stockholders will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the day before the meeting date. For more information, please see “The Meeting — How to Vote Your Shares” below.

Q: How do I vote my shares if I hold my shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee?

A: If you hold your shares as a beneficial owner through a bank, broker or other nominee, you should have received instructions on how to vote your shares from your broker, bank or other nominee. Please follow their instructions carefully. You must provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would like at the Meeting.

Q: If my bank, broker or other nominee holds my shares in “street name,” will such party vote my shares for me?

A: For all “non-routine” matters, not without your direction. Your broker, bank or other nominee will be permitted to vote your shares on any “non-routine” proposal only if you instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote. Under applicable stock exchange rules, brokers, banks or other nominees have the discretion to vote your shares on routine matters if you fail to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares with respect to such matters. The proposals to be voted upon by our stockholders described in this proxy statement, except for the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm, are “non-routine” matters, and brokers, banks and other nominees therefore cannot vote on these proposals without your instructions. The proposed ratification of the appointment of Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 is considered a “routine” matter. Accordingly, brokers, banks and other nominees are entitled to vote uninstructed shares only with respect to the ratification of the appointment of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. Therefore, it is important that you instruct your broker, bank or nominee on how you wish to vote your shares.

You should follow the procedures provided by your broker, bank or other nominee regarding the voting of your shares of the Company’s common stock. Without instructions, a broker non-vote will result, and your shares will not be voted, on all “non-routine” matters.

Table of Contents

Q: What is a proxy?

A: A proxy is your legal designation of another person, referred to as a “proxy,” to vote shares of stock. The written document describing the matters to be considered and voted on at the Meeting is called a “proxy statement.” Our Board of Directors has designated Raymond J. Tesi, our Chief Executive Officer and David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer, and each of them, with full power of substitution, as proxies for the Meeting.

Q: If a stockholder gives a proxy, how are the shares voted?

A: When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no specific instructions are given on properly-executed returned proxies, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors as described above. If any matters not described in this proxy statement are properly presented at the Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote your shares.

Q: What happens if I do not vote or return a proxy?

A: A quorum will exist at the Meeting only if the holders of record of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company entitled to vote at the Meeting are present in person or by proxy. Your failure to vote on the proposals, by failing to either submit a proxy or attend the Meeting if you are a stockholder of record, may result in the failure of a quorum to exist at the Meeting.

Q: What happens if I abstain?

A: If you abstain, whether by proxy or in person at the Meeting, or if you instruct your broker, bank or other nominee to abstain your abstention will not be counted for or against the proposals, but will be counted as “present” at the Meeting in determining whether or not a quorum exists.

Q: Can I revoke my proxy or change my vote?

A: You may change your vote at any time prior to the vote at the Meeting. To revoke your proxy instructions and change your vote if you are a holder of record, you must (i) vote again on a later date on the Internet or by telephone (only your latest Internet or telephone proxy submitted prior to the Meeting will be counted), (ii) advise our Secretary at our principal executive offices (225 NE Mizner Blvd, Suite 640, Boca Raton, FL 33432) in writing before the proxy holders vote your shares, (iii) deliver later dated and signed proxy instructions (which must be received prior to the Meeting) or (iv) participating in the Meeting live via the internet and voting again. If you hold shares in “street name,” you should refer to the instructions you received from your broker, bank or other nominee. Attendance in and of itself at the Meeting will not revoke a proxy. For shares you hold beneficially but not of record, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker or nominee or, if you have obtained a valid proxy from your broker or nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by participating in the Meeting live via the internet and voting again.

Q: What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

A: You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a stockholder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, date, sign and return (or vote via the Internet or telephone with respect to) each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive to ensure that all of your shares are counted.

Q: What is “householding”?

A: We have adopted a procedure approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) called “householding” for stockholders who have the same address and last name and do not participate in electronic delivery of proxy materials. In some instances, only one copy of the proxy materials is being delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address, unless we have received instructions from one or more of the stockholders to continue to deliver multiple copies. This procedure reduces our printing costs and postage fees.

Table of Contents

We will deliver promptly, upon oral or written request, a separate copy of the applicable materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy was delivered. If you wish to receive a separate copy of the proxy materials you may call us at (858) 964 3720, or send a written request to INmune Bio, 225 NE Mizner Blvd, Suite 640, Boca Raton, FL 33432, Attention: Secretary. If you have received only one copy of the proxy materials, and wish to receive a separate copy for each stockholder in the future, you may call us at the telephone number or write us at the address listed above. Alternatively, stockholders sharing an address who now receive multiple copies of the proxy materials may request delivery of a single copy, also by calling us at the telephone number or writing to us at the address listed above.

Q: Where can I find the voting results of the Meeting?

A: The Company intends to announce preliminary voting results at the Meeting and publish final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K that will be filed with the SEC following the Meeting. All reports the Company files with the SEC are publicly available when filed.

Q: What if I have questions about lost stock certificates or need to change my mailing address?

A: You may contact our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC at (212) 828-8436, or by email at info@vstocktransfer.com, if you have lost your stock certificate. You may email VStock Transfer, LLC at info@vstocktransfer.com if you need to change your mailing address

Q: Who can help answer my additional questions about the proposals or the other matters discussed in this proxy statement?

A: If you have questions about the proposals or other matters discussed in this proxy statement, you may contact the Company by mail at INmune Bio, 225 NE Mizner Blvd, Suite 640, Boca Raton, FL 33432, Attention: Secretary.

THE MEETING

We are furnishing this proxy statement to our stockholders as part of the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors for use at the Meeting of stockholders to be held on June 1, 2022, or continuation thereof. We began distributing this Proxy Statement, Annual Meeting notice and proxy card, or a notice of internet availability of proxy materials on or about April 19, 2022.

Date, Time and Place

The Meeting of the Company’s stockholders will be held via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INMB2022 on June 1, 2022, starting at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time.

Matters to be Considered

The purpose of the Meeting is for stockholders of the Company to consider and vote on the following proposals.

Proposal No. 1 The Election of Directors |  | To elect six directors to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.
Proposal No. 2 Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |  | To ratify the appointment of Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Record Date; Shares Outstanding and Entitled to Vote

The close of business on April 12, 2022, has been fixed as the Record Date for determining those Company stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting. As of the close of business on the Record Date for the Meeting, there were 17,945,995 shares of the Company’s common stock, held by 29 holders of record. Each share of the Company’s common stock entitles its holder to one vote at the Meeting on all matters properly presented at the Meeting.

Quorum

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will exist at the Meeting if shares of 331/3 percent of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, are represented in person or represented by proxy. Shares of the Company’s common stock that are voted to abstain are treated as shares that are represented at the Meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. Broker non-votes do not count for voting purposes, but are considered “present” at the meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

Vote Required

Directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the shares represented in person or by proxy.

Ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm and approval of the Say-on-Pay Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting, whether in person or by proxy, provided that a quorum is present. An abstention will not be counted for or against the proposals, and therefore will not affect the vote outcome. Failure of record holders to submit a signed proxy card, grant a proxy electronically over the Internet or by telephone or to vote in person by ballot at the Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of the votes for such items, although such failure may contribute to a quorum not being present at such meeting. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the votes for all proposals except for the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm, for which we do not expect any broker non-votes.

Recommendations of our Board of Directors

The Board of Directors also recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each of the nominees for director “FOR” the proposals set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the Proxy Statement.

Common Stock Ownership of Directors and Executive Officers

As of the Record Date, our directors and executive officers held an aggregate of approximately 24% of the shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote at the Meeting.

How to Change Your Vote

If you are the stockholder of record, you may revoke your proxy or change your vote prior to your shares being voted at the Meeting by:

If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, you may change your vote by:

• submitting new voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee in a timely manner following the voting procedures received from your broker, bank or other nominee; or

• participating in the Meeting live via the internet and voting, if you have obtained a valid proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares.

Attendance at the Meeting will not, in and of itself, constitute revocation of a proxy. See the section entitled “— How to Vote Your Shares” above for information regarding certain voting deadlines.

Counting Your Vote

All properly executed proxies delivered and not properly revoked will be voted at the Meeting as specified in such proxies. If you provide specific voting instructions, your shares of the Company’s common stock will be voted as instructed.

REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors has appointed Marcum LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year 2022 and has further directed that the selection of Marcum LLP be submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders at the Meeting for ratification.

As described below, the stockholder vote is not binding on the Board of Directors. If the appointment of Marcum LLP is not ratified, the Board of Directors will evaluate the basis for the stockholders’ vote when determining whether to continue the firm’s engagement, but may ultimately determine to continue the engagement of the firm or another audit firm without re-submitting the matter to stockholders. Even if the appointment of Marcum LLP is ratified, the Board of Directors may in its sole discretion terminate the engagement of the firm and direct the appointment of another independent auditor at any time during the year if it determines that such an appointment would be in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders.

Representatives of Marcum LLP are not expected to attend the Meeting.

STOCK OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
M ANAGEMENT OF INMUNE BIO, I NC.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock as of April 10, 2022 for:

• each of the Company’s current directors and executive officers;

• all of the Company’s current directors and executive officers as a group; and

• each person, or group of affiliated persons, who beneficially owned more than 5% of our common stock.

Except as indicated by the footnotes below, the Company believes, based on information furnished to it, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares of common stock that they beneficially owned, subject to applicable community property laws.

The Company’s calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 17,945,995 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 10, 2022. The Company has determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person or persons, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person or persons (and only such person or persons) by reason of these acquisition rights.
