Introduction

 

This form of proxy (the “Form of Proxy”) is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the board of directors (the “Board”) of YS Biopharma Co., Ltd.(the “Company”) of proxies from the shareholders the Company to be exercised at the Extraordinary General Meeting (the “EGM”) of the shareholders of the Company to be held at 35th Floor, Two Exchange Square, 8 Connaught Place Central, Hong Kong on February 22, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time), and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (the “EGM Notice”).

 

Only the holders of record of the ordinary shares, par value US$0.00002 per share, of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) on the Company’s register of members as of 5:00 p.m. on February 16, 2024, Hong Kong time (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at the EGM. In respect of the matters requiring shareholders’ vote at the EGM, each Ordinary Share shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote. The resolution put to the vote at the EGM will be decided by poll.

 

The quorum of the EGM is at least one or more holders of Ordinary Shares which carry in aggregate not less than one-third of all votes attaching to all Ordinary Shares in issue and entitled to vote at the EGM, present in person or by proxy or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative throughout the EGM.

 

This Form of Proxy is available to shareholders beginning on February 14, 2024. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the EGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote in his/her stead. The Ordinary Shares represented by all properly executed proxies returned to the Company will be voted at the EGM as indicated or, if no instruction is given, the holder of the proxy will vote the shares in his/her discretion, unless a reference to the holder of the proxy having such discretion has been deleted and initialed on this Form of Proxy. Where the chairman of the EGM acts as proxy and is entitled to exercise his discretion, he is likely to vote the shares FOR the resolutions. As to any other business that may properly come before the EGM, all properly executed proxies will be voted by the persons named therein in accordance with their discretion. The Company does not presently know of any other business which may come before the EGM. However, if any other matter properly comes before the EGM, or any adjourned or postponed meeting thereof, which may properly be acted upon, unless otherwise indicated the proxies solicited hereby will be voted on such matter in accordance with the discretion of the proxy holders named therein.

 

Any proxy given by a holder of Ordinary Shares may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before its use by:

 

·holders of Ordinary Shares registered on the Company’s register of members as of the Record Date by executing and delivering a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date by email to YSBiopharma.IR@icrinc.com, which should be received by 9:00 a.m. on February 20, 2024 (Hong Kong time); and

 

·attending the EGM and voting in person for holders of Ordinary Shares registered on the Company’s register of members. Attendance at the EGM in and of itself does not revoke a prior proxy.

 

To be valid, this Form of Proxy must be completed, signed and returned to the Company by email to YSBiopharma.IR@icrinc.com as soon as possible so that it is received by the Company no later than 48 hours before the time of the EGM.
