나스닥 상장에 대해서 CoImmune CFO Lori Harrelson 

2022IPO 계획을 주된 목표로 계획하되, 주식시장 상황을 고려하여 전략적으로 추진할 것이라고 답변하였고 메일의 원문은 다음과 같습니다.

 

 

Regarding your question about the timing of CoImmunes potential listing on the NASDAQ exchange, CoImmune as a private company cannot dictate the timing for its IPO. In the US, market conditions, not the SEC, determine the timing and likelihood of whether or not a private company will go public.

 

CoImmunes business plan contemplates an equity financing and preparation for an IPO in 2022. Only if market conditions permit, will CoImmune file a Form S-1 with the SEC. Per our business plan, we are actively seeking an equity financing in the amount of $80 - $100 million. Currently, we do not know when we will close the equity financing. Further, we were informed by our bankers that the biotech IPO market is mostly closed at this time due to market volatility. Accordingly, we cannot determine or predict when we will close on an IPO. We do plan to prepare an S-1 and will only file it with the SEC upon favorable market conditions for an eventual IPO. We continue to have calls with potential investors and discuss financing options with our bankers.


 

에스씨엠생명과학㈜의 이사선임에 대해서

CoImmune CFO Lori Harrelson의 답변은 시리즈 B가 완료된 이후 정관에 따라 진행하면 된다고 답변하였고 메일의 원문은 다음과 같습니다.

 

 

As indicated in the latest executed shareholders agreement sent to you by our counsel, Cole Schotz, SCM is no longer entitled to appoint a director to CoImmune’s board.  According to the latest shareholders agreement and amended Bylaws (also sent to you by Cole Schotz), all common shareholders as a group are entitled to elect (not appoint) up to three (3) common directors. In order for the common shareholders to elect an additional common director (currently two common directors sit on the board), a common shareholder has to nominate a director candidate and call for an election among all common shareholders.  If more than 50% of all common shareholders vote for that candidate, he or she will be officially elected to the CoImmune board as a common director. Currently, the common shareholders of CoImmune are comprised of SCM, Genexine, MSK, and former shareholders of Formula Pharmaceuticals.

Our understanding is that our board members have already spoken to Dr. Song at SCM, and Dr. Song agreed to wait to nominate himself as director candidate until after the crossover equity financing round has closed.  Therefore, CoImmune is not taking any further action regarding Dr. Song.  Further, electing an additional common director is a matter for the common shareholders, not a matter for the management team.

Regarding the request for board meeting minutes, they are for the directors only. Any shareholder, including SCM, is not entitled and privy to the board meeting minutes.』
