Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On November 19, 2024, Silexion Therapeutics Corp (the “Company”) reconvened its extraordinary general meeting (the
“Meeting”), after the Meeting had been adjourned on its originally scheduled date of November 12, 2024 due to the absence of a quorum. At the reconvened Meeting, holders of a total of 4,201,313 ordinary shares, constituting approximately 29.5% of
the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares, were present in person or by proxy. Pursuant to Article 21.3 of the Company’s amended and restated articles of association, after a half-hour had elapsed from the start time of the reconvened Meeting and a
quorum (constituted by holders of a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares) was not present, those shareholders present constituted a quorum for the conduct of business at the Meeting.
At the reconvened Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the sole matter on the agenda, a proposal to allow the
Company’s board of directors to effect a reverse share split of the Company’s ordinary shares at a ratio of 1-for-9 , whereby all issued and outstanding, and all authorized but unissued, ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, of the Company, will be
consolidated on a 1-for-9 basis, into a lesser number of ordinary shares, par value $0.0009 per share, of the Company (the “Reverse Split Proposal”).
The affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares of the Company present and voting at the Meeting (excluding
abstentions) was required to approve the Reverse Split Proposal.
Set forth below are the final voting results for the Reverse Split Proposal, evidencing the approval of the proposal
by 93.6% of the ordinary shares (excluding abstentions) present and voting on the proposal:
