This supplement, dated September 22, 2023, supplements the Proxy Statement of Soligenix, Inc. filed with the SEC on August 7, 2023, relating to our Annual Meeting, scheduled to be held virtually on September 21, 2023, and is first being mailed to shareholders on or about September 22, 2023. This Supplement, which adds to and amends the Proxy Statement, includes a new proposal to ratify the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, and an amended proxy card.
New Proposal 3 – Ratification of Cherry Bekaert LLP as Independent Auditors
Proposal 3, which has been added to the agenda for the Annual Meeting, proposes the ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
Amended Proxy Card
The enclosed amended proxy card (the “Amended Proxy Card”) differs from the proxy card previously furnished to stockholders with the Proxy Statement (the “Original Proxy Card”), as the Amended Proxy Card includes new Proposal 3 for the ratification of Cherry Bekaert LLP. If you have already voted, we encourage you to submit your vote on all three proposals by resubmitting the Amended Proxy Card by mail or by submitting a proxy by telephone or over the Internet by following the procedures on the Amended Proxy Card. If you vote by telephone or over the Internet, you do not need to return a proxy card by mail. However, if you return, or have already returned, an Original Proxy Card, then the votes indicated on such Original Proxy Card will remain valid for each of the proposals and director nominee elections other than Proposal 3 and will be voted at the Annual Meeting unless revoked.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE SUBMISSION OF A NEW PROXY CARD WILL REVOKE ALL PRIOR PROXY CARDS SUBMITTED, SO IT IS IMPORTANT TO INDICATE YOUR VOTE FOR EACH PROPOSAL ON THE NEW PROXY CARD, INCLUDING THOSE INCLUDED ON THE ORIGINAL PROXY CARD.
Except as indicated herein, this Supplement does not modify, amend, supplement or otherwise affect any matter presented for consideration in the Proxy Statement. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PROXY STATEMENT, WHICH CONTAINS IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
Capitalized terms used in this Supplement, but not otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Proxy Statement.
