Result of the 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders
On September 2, 2025, Universe Pharmaceuticals
INC (the “Company”) re-convened its annual general meeting of shareholders, originally convened on August 26, 2025 (the “2025
Annual General Meeting”) at 10:00 a.m., Beijing Time, at 265 Jingjiu Avenue, Jinggangshan Economy and Technology Development Zone,
Ji’an City, Jiangxi 343100, the People’s Republic of China.
At the 2025 Annual General Meeting, the shareholders
of the Company adopted resolutions approving all of the proposals considered at the Meeting. A total of 2.55% of the 563,338 votes exercisable
as of July 18, 2025, the record date, were present in person or by proxy at the 2025 Annual General Meeting, representing less than one-third
(1/3) of the shares carrying the right to vote at the 2025 Annual General Meeting. However, since the 2025 Annual General Meeting was
adjourned from August 26, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Beijing Time due to a lack of quorum, and shareholders representing less than one-third (1/3)
of the shares carrying the right to vote were present in person or by proxy at the 2025 Annual General Meeting within fifteen minutes
of the time appointed for the 2025 Annual General Meeting, the shareholders present or by proxy shall constitute a quorum in accordance
with article 11.2 of the Amended and Restated Articles of Association of the Company currently in effect. A quorum for the transaction
of business was therefore present at the 2025 Annual General Meeting.
The results of the votes were as follows:
| 1. | “It is resolved as an ordinary resolution that Gang Lai be re-elected as a director of the Company
to hold office in accordance with the articles of association of the Company until the next annual general meeting of the Company.”
