Vyant Bio, Inc. (“Vyant Bio” or “Company”) (OTC: VYNT), today
announced that its special meeting of stockholders on September 28,
2023 (the “Special Meeting”) was reconvened and then adjourned,
without conducting any business, in order to provide stockholders
additional time within which to vote on the proposals as described
in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on August 16, 2023 (the “Proxy
Statement”).
The adjourned Special Meeting will reconvene on
October 19, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time at
https://www.viewproxy.com/vynt/2023. The record date of August 4,
2023 for the adjourned Special Meeting remains the same.
Stockholders of record may attend the virtual webcast meeting by
logging in through the same method.
During this adjournment, the Company will
continue to solicit votes from its stockholders in favor of
Proposal 1 to approve the sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement
dated July 13, 2023, by and between AxoSim, the Company and
StemoniX, Inc., and Proposal 2 to approve the voluntary liquidation
and dissolution of the Company, pursuant to a Plan of Liquidation
and Dissolution. The Company is required to receive 50% or more of
the outstanding shares to vote in favor of Proposals 1 and 2 for
these proposals to pass. The Company’s board of directors believes
approval of Proposals 1 and 2 is advisable and in the best
interests of the Company and our stockholders for the reasons
described in our Proxy Statement. We believe there is significant
support for Proposals 1 and 2. At the time of the Special Meeting’s
adjournment, Proposal 1 had received approximately 96.0%
affirmative votes and requires an additional 77,522 votes required
to pass Proposal 1; and Proposal 2 had received approximately 93.0%
affirmative votes and requires an additional 175,721votes required
to pass Proposal 2. Approximately 50.8% of the Company’s shares
having cast votes. The Company plans to continue to seek approval
of these proposals with continued investor outreach.
Stockholders who have already voted their shares
on the proposals contained in the Proxy Statement do not need to
vote again. Proxies previously submitted will be voted at the
adjourned Special Meeting, and stockholders who have previously
submitted a proxy or otherwise voted need not take any action.
Vyant Bio encourages all stockholders, as of the
record date on August 4, 2023, who have not yet voted to do so
promptly to reduce future costs to facilitate the proxy voting
process and operating the Company.
