The Board of Directors of Vaxart believes that the approval of Proposal No. 2 regarding the Reverse Stock Split is in the best interests of the stockholders of Vaxart for the following reasons: regains compliance of Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement and helps ensure that the Company’s common stock can remain listed on Nasdaq;brokerage firms may be more reluctant to recommend lower priced securities to their clients and investors may also be dissuaded from purchasing lower priced stocks because the brokerage commissions, as a percentage of the total transaction, tend to be higher for such stocks;analysts at many brokerage firms do not monitor the trading activity or otherwise provide coverage of lower priced stocks and that most investment funds are reluctant to invest in lower priced stocks; anda higher stock price may help generate investor interest in the Company and help the Company attract and retain employees.
