Shareholders will vote on critical proposals, including the board's continuation of its strategic alternatives review (which encompasses the recently announced $890 million acquisition of Infinite Epigenetics), Murchinson's attempt to remove three directors (including the Chairman and CEO) and elect its own nominees, and Murchinson's proposals to restrict the board's ability to implement future poison pills or execute major transactions without shareholder approval.
