Result of Special Meeting

 

 

GAITHERSBURG, MD, 06 July 2021 - MaxCyte, Inc., (LSE: MXCT, MXCN), a leading provider of platform technologies for cell engineering, announces that at the Special Meeting held earlier today in respect of the Company's proposed US-registered public offering of shares of Common Stock and dual-listing of the Common Stock on Nasdaq (the "Proposed Offering"), each of the resolutions as set out in the notice of Special Meeting was duly passed, with the sole exception of Resolution 5, which is not a requirement for the Proposed Offering to proceed.

 

The Special Meeting was convened following the Company's announcement on 14 May 2021, that it had confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form S-1 to the SEC relating to a proposed dual-listing and public offering of shares of Common Stock on Nasdaq. The exact timing of the Proposed Offering as well as the number of and the price of the shares of Common Stock to be offered and sold in the Proposed Offering have not yet been determined. The Proposed Offering is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission satisfactorily completing its review of the Company's registration statement related thereto in addition to market and other conditions. There is no assurance that the Proposed Offering will be completed, nor is there certainty as to the timing of the Proposed Offering.

As a result of the outcome of the Special Meeting, should the Proposed Offering proceed, MaxCyte's Directors intend to maintain the admission of the shares of Common Stock to trading on AIM alongside listing of the shares of Common Stock on Nasdaq. Accordingly, Stockholders will continue to be able to deal in shares of Common Stock on AIM and, in due course, may also deal in shares of Common Stock on Nasdaq. The Company will continue to be subject to the AIM Rules for Companies.

The Company intends to provide further details in due course in an announcement to be made via a Regulatory Information Service as to how, subject to completion of the Proposed Offering, Stockholders will be able to move shares of Common Stock between the UK and the US.

This press release is being made pursuant to, and in accordance with Rule 135 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of that jurisdiction. Any offers, solicitations or offers to buy, or any sales of securities will be made in accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
