Your vote is important. Approval of each of the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Equity Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal, the Reverse Stock Split Proposal and the Authorized Share Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the votes cast by the holders of shares present at the meeting (by virtual attendance) or represented by proxy at the Cara special meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Approval of the Compensation Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person (by virtual attendance) or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. No Cara Proposal is conditioned upon any other Cara Proposal. However, each of the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Reverse Stock Split Proposal and the Authorized Share Proposal is a condition to the consummation of the Merger. Therefore, the Merger cannot be consummated without the approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Reverse Stock Split Proposal and the Authorized Share Proposal. The Equity Plan Proposal and the ESPP Proposal are conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger.
