Amendment and Supplement to the Proxy Statement
For the Annual Meeting of Stockholders
To be Held on December 29, 2021

 

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On November 22, 2021, MyMD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“MyMD” or the “Company”) filed its definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) for its annual meeting of stockholders to be held on December 29, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”), to be conducted in a virtual format only via live audio webcast at 10:00 a.m. E.T.

 

The Company is voluntarily amending and supplementing the Proxy Statement with the information provided in this supplement to the Proxy Statement (the “Supplement”) to make certain revisions to the section titled “Stock Ownership Of Certain Beneficial Owners And Management.” Such section of the Proxy Statement included incorrect numbers of shares beneficially owned by some executive officers, directors, and shareholders, mainly due to including in the calculation unvested awards made to executive officers and directors. This supplement corrects such errors and provides the correct information.

 

Other than the foregoing, no other changes have been made to the Proxy Statement and it continues to be in full force and effect as originally filed. Management continues to seek the vote of the Company’s stockholders for all proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

 

Any proxies submitted by stockholders before the date of this Supplement will be voted as instructed on those proxies, unless a stockholder changes his or her vote by submitting a later dated proxy. Stockholders should follow the instructions described in the Proxy Statement regarding how to submit proxies or vote at the Annual Meeting.

 

 

 

 

THIS SUPPLEMENT SHOULD BE READ

This supplemental information should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement, which should be read in its entirety. Section references in the below disclosures are to sections in the Proxy Statement, and defined terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Proxy Statement.
