On June 2, 2026, Crescent Biopharma, Inc. (the "Company") held its annual general meeting of shareholders (the "Annual Meeting"). At the close of business on April 7, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting (the "Record Date"), 27,571,935 ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share ("Ordinary Shares"), were issued and outstanding, and 2,890 Series A non-voting convertible preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share ("Series A Preferred Shares"), were issued and outstanding. Each Ordinary Share was entitled to one vote per share for the election of Susan Moran, M.D., MSCE and one vote on each of proposals 3, 4 and 5. The holders of each Series A Preferred Share were entitled to 1,000 votes per share, voting as a separate class for the election of Jonathan Violin, Ph.D. and voting together with the holders of Ordinary Shares as a single class for the election of Susan Moran, M.D., MSCE, and were not entitled to vote on any other proposal. The following are the voting results for the proposals considered and voted upon at the Annual Meeting, each of which was described in the Company's definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2026.

Based on the foregoing votes, each of Jonathan Violin, Ph.D. and Susan Moran, M.D., MSCE was elected as a Class II director, Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 were approved, and shareholders recommended a one year frequency for future advisory votes to approve named executive officer compensation.

Based on the foregoing voting results and consistent with the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), the Board has determined to hold an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers every year until the next advisory vote regarding the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers is submitted to the shareholders or the Board otherwise determines that a different frequency for such advisory votes is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
