Item 5.08 Shareholder Director Nominations

 

On August 29, 2022, the Board of Directors of Enveric Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) will be held virtually by means of remote communication on or about October 28, 2022, or as otherwise set forth in the Company’s notice and proxy statement for the Annual Meeting. Stockholders of record of the Company’s common stock at the close of business on September 14, 2022 will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. The Company, however, reserves the right to change the record date prior to the Annual Meeting.

 

Because the date of the Annual Meeting is more than thirty days from the anniversary date of the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was held on September 14, 2021, the Company is providing revised deadlines for any stockholder proposal, including director nominations, intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for its Annual Meeting.

 

If you want the Company to consider including a proposal in its proxy statement for its Annual Meeting, you must deliver a copy of your proposal to the Company’s Secretary at its corporate office at 411 Hackensack Ave, Hackensack, New Jersey 07601, no later than September 12, 2022. The Company has determined such date to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy material prior to the Annual Meeting. The Company has also determined such date to be reasonable under the Bylaws and the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is hereby providing notice of the deadline for stockholder proposals to be included in the Company’s proxy statement for its Annual Meeting.

 

In addition to complying with the September 12, 2022 deadline for stockholder director nominations and stockholder proposals intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, the submitting stockholder must also comply with all applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules, including Rule 14a-8, Delaware corporate law and the Company’s Bylaws in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Any director nominations and stockholder proposals received after the September 12, 2022 deadline will be considered untimely and will not be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting.

 

Because the date of the 2022 Annual Meeting is not advanced by more than thirty days or delayed by more than sixty days from the anniversary date of the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, proposals for the Annual Meeting, including director nominations, that are not intended to be including in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, must have been delivered no earlier than May 23, 2022 and no later than the close of business on June 22, 2022.
