Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On June 30, 2022, iBio, Inc. (the “Company”) held a special meeting of stockholders virtually at which the following actions were taken (the “Special Meeting”). The proposals below are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Special Meeting dated May 24, 2022, as amended on May 26, 2022, and revised on June 14, 2022.
As previously described in the Proxy Statement, each share of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”) entitled the holder to 5,000,000 votes on Proposal 1 at the Special Meeting; provided, that, such votes were required to be counted by the Company in the same proportion as the aggregate shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) that were voted on such proposal. Holders of Preferred Stock had no voting rights with regard to Proposal 2 and Proposal 3. Holders of the Company’s Common Stock were entitled to one vote per share on each proposal.
Proposal 1
A proposal to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at the ratio of one (1) share of Common Stock for every twenty five (25) shares of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split Ratio”), such amendment to be effected after stockholder approval thereof only in the event the Board of Directors still deems it advisable (the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”), was approved based on the following votes:
Votes For |
| Votes Against |
| Abstentions |
| Broker Non-Votes |
3,095,125,956 |
| 2,017,764,557 |
| 875,301 |
| 0 |
Proposal 2
A proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to decrease, immediately following and conditioned upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock (the “Authorized Common Stock Decrease”) from 275,000,000 to 22,000,000 (the “Authorized Common Stock Decrease Proposal”), was not approved based on the following votes:
Votes For |
| Votes Against |
| Abstentions |
| Broker Non-Votes |
75,319,857 |
| 37,372,276 |
| 1,073,681 |
| 0 |
Proposal 3
The proposal to approve any adjournment or postponement of the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of either the Reserve Stock Split Proposal and/or the Authorized Share Decrease Proposal, was approved based on the following votes:
Votes For |
| Votes Against |
| Abstentions |
| Broker Non-Votes |
65,457,849 |
| 47,267,874 |
| 1,040,091 |
| 0 |
The Company determined not to adjourn the Special Meeting in order to allow additional time for the Company’s stockholders to vote on Proposal 2. As a result, the number of the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock will remain at 275,000,000.
