SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT
For the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on August 17, 2022
On July 11, 2022, Abeona Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”) filed its definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy Statement”) in connection with its 2022 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Due to a scrivener’s error, the second sentence on page 3 of the Proxy Statement erroneously stated that “the presence, through virtual attendance or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the conduct of business at the Annual Meeting” (emphasis added). However, pursuant to Section 12 of the Company’s bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of one-third of the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote constitutes a quorum at meetings of stockholders. Accordingly, the second sentence on page 3 of the Proxy Statement should read as follows:
“According
to our Bylaws, the presence, through virtual attendance or by proxy, of the holders of a majority one-third of
the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the conduct of business at the Annual Meeting.”
No other changes have been made to the Proxy Statement. This proxy supplement should be read together with the Proxy Statement, which should be read in its entirety.
