On May 1322, 2024, NeuBase Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) convened and adjourned aits previously-adjourned Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, a total of 1,~~336~~379,~~544~~904 shares, or 3536.6378% of the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding as of March 28, 2024, which is the record date for the Special Meeting, were represented virtually or by proxy, constituting a quorum.

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders considered two proposals, each of which is described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 9, 2024 (the “Proxy Statement”) and is set forth below.

Proposal No. 1: To approve the liquidation and dissolution of the Company and the plan of liquidation and dissolution of the Company (the “Plan of Dissolution”), which, if approved, will authorize the Board of Directors of the Company to liquidate and dissolve the Company in accordance with the Plan of Dissolution (the “Dissolution Proposal”).

Proposal No. 2: To approve an adjournment of the Special Meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Dissolution Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

As there were not sufficient votes to approve the Dissolution Proposal at the time of the Special Meeting, the sole item of business presented to the stockholders for consideration at the Special Meeting was a vote on the Adjournment Proposal. The voting results for the Adjournment Proposal are set forth below.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the factual statements made herein, information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K consists of forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Words and expressions reflecting optimism, satisfaction or disappointment with current prospects or future events, as well as words such as “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans” and similar expressions, or the use of future tense, identify forward-looking statements, but their absence does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and actual actions or events could differ materially from those contained in such statements. For example, there can be no assurance that the Company will receive sufficient votes to approve the Dissolution Proposal. Reference is also made to other factors detailed from time to time in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the SEC, including the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
