Notice of General Meeting

 

Genflow Biosciences Plc (LSE: GENF) (OTCQB: GENFF) ("Genflow" or the
"Company"), a European-based biotechnology company focused on the development
of gene therapies for age-related diseases, announces that the Board is
considering potentially undertaking an equity raise which would be structured
by issuing rights over the New Shares (in the form of shares or warrants) to
new investors and/or existing shareholders in the Company for cash
consideration in one or more private placements on a non-pre-emptive basis
(the "Potential Equity Raise").

 

In order to facilitate the Potential Equity Raise and to ensure that it could
be swiftly concluded if it progresses, the Board is seeking specific
shareholder approval at a general meeting (the "General Meeting") for the
allotment and issue of up to 188,947,368 new ordinary shares ("New Shares")
(which is approximately 38% of the Company's current issued share capital) in
connection with the Potential Equity Raise, on terms that the Board may
determine.

 

In order for the Directors to issue New Shares free of statutory pre-emption
rights, such statutory pre-emption rights must be dis-applied. Accordingly,
the Board wishes to seek separate authorities to dis-apply pre-emption rights
in respect of the allotment of the New Shares pursuant to the Potential Equity
Raise.

 

The General Meeting will be held at One Heddon Street, London, W1B 4BD at 11am
on 2 March 2026.

 

At this time, there is no certainty that the Potential Equity Raise will
proceed and at this point no investors have entered into any agreements to
subscribe for New Shares and the amounts and price of any Potential Equity
Raise have not been agreed. To the extent that any money is raised from the
Potential Equity Raise, it would be applied towards:

 

·      Moving the MASH program to IND-enabling stage;

·      Animal health: final payment to the contract research
organization for the randomized clinical trial in aged beagle dogs and
licensing effort;

·      Glaucoma Proof of Concept studies and Business development
effort; and

·      Final phase of EU patent approval and continued processing of US
patent applications

 

If the authorities sought at the General Meeting in connection with the
Potential Equity Raise are approved, the Directors shall have discretion to
determine the terms of the Potential Equity Raise, including the number of New
Shares and warrants to be issued (subject to the limits of the authorities)
and the price at which the New Shares will be issued, as well as the identity
of who the New Shares will be issued to. Further details of the Potential
Equity Raise (if it proceeds) will be announced in due course.
