[DEFR14A] Invizyne Technologies Inc. Revised Proxy Statement

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Invizyne Technologies Inc. ("IZTC") has filed Amendment No. 1 to its definitive proxy statement (Form DEFR14A) to correct the proxy card for Proposal 1, the election of directors. The updated card now offers shareholders the standard choices of "For All," "Withhold All," or "For All Except," and explains how to withhold authority for specific nominees.

The company notes that proxy materials have not yet been distributed, so investors will receive only the corrected version, avoiding the need for multiple or color-coded cards. No other proposals, financial metrics, or strategic items were affected by this administrative update.

Insights

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Routine filing; fixes proxy card to add withhold options—administrative, no material financial impact.

This amendment merely rectifies a ballot design flaw that previously prevented shareholders from withholding votes for individual director nominees. Providing the "For All/Withhold All/For All Except" structure aligns the proxy card with SEC and best-practice corporate governance norms, reducing potential challenges and ensuring the integrity of the upcoming annual meeting vote. Because proxy materials were not yet mailed, investor confusion and incremental costs are minimal. The filing contains no financial data or strategic changes, so valuation and outlook remain unchanged.

EXPLANATION OF FILING

This filing is being made to correct the proxy card that was filed on June 20, 2025 by ExoZymes Inc. The change is to correct the voting for director nominees.

The proposal number 1 originally did not provide for the ability of a shareholder to withhold for all or for one or more of the director nominees. The card has been adjusted to provide for the ability of the shareholder to select either a vote “For All,” “Withhold All” or “For All Except” and an explanation as to how to withhold authority for a specific director nominee for those shareholders selecting to vote “For All Except.”

As the proxy materials have not yet been distributed as of the date of this filing, shareholders will only be receiving the corrected proxy card; therefore there is not being provided to shareholders differently colored or otherwise separately distinguishable proxy cards.
