Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On March 23, 2026, Silexion Therapeutics Corp (the “Company”) reconvened the extraordinary general meeting originally held on March 16, 2026 (the “Meeting”),
which had been adjourned on March 16, 2026 due to the absence of a quorum. At the reconvened Meeting, holders of an aggregate of 1,216,369 ordinary shares, representing approximately 36.6% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares, were
present either in person or by proxy. Pursuant to Article 21.3 of the Company’s amended and restated articles of association (the “Articles”),
following the lapse of a half hour from the scheduled commencement time of the reconvened Meeting, and in the absence of a quorum (defined as the presence of shareholders holding a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares),
the shareholders then present constituted a quorum for the purpose of transacting business at the Meeting.
At the reconvened Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted on the following proposals:
|
(i) |
Proposal 1: An increase to the authorized share capital of the Company by
50,000,000 ordinary shares, from US$121,500 divided into 9,000,000 ordinary shares of a par value of US$0.0135 each (which is the Company’s current authorized share capital), to US$796,500 divided into 59,000,000 ordinary shares of a par
value of US$0.0135 each (the “Authorized Share Capital Increase Proposal”).
|
The result of the vote on the Authorized Share Capital Increase Proposal was as follows:
|
Number of Votes and % of Votes in Favor (Excluding Abstentions)
|
|
Number of Votes and % of Votes Against (Excluding Abstentions)
|
|
Abstentions
|
|
461,249 (38.2%)
|
|
744,775 (61.8%)
|
|
10,345
|
|
(ii) |
Proposal 2: An amendment to the Silexion Therapeutics Corp 2024 Equity
Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”), effective as of January 1, 2026, to increase the number of ordinary shares added annually on January 1st
under the “evergreen” provision of Section 5(b)(i) of the 2024 Plan from (i) 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares, to (ii) such number of ordinary shares as yields a pool of ordinary shares reserved under all equity
incentive plans of the Company that constitutes, in the aggregate, 10% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares on a fully diluted basis (the “Evergreen Increase Proposal”).
|
The result of the vote on the Evergreen Increase Proposal was as follows:
|
Number of Votes and % of Votes in Favor (Excluding Abstentions)
|
|
Number of Votes and % of Votes Against (Excluding Abstentions)
|
|
Abstentions
|
|
486,671 (40.7%)
|
|
709,115 (59.3%)
|
|
20,583
|
Based on the above vote results, neither of the Authorized Share Capital Increase Proposal nor the Evergreen Increase Proposal was approved
by the requisite affirmative vote of a simple majority of the shareholders present, which was the required majority for those proposals under Article 17.1.1 of the Articles (in the case of the Authorized Share Capital Increase Proposal) and the
Articles generally (in the case of the Evergreen Increase Proposal).
