Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On March 24, 2022, Surrozen, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information set forth under this “Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition” (including the exhibit referenced herein) shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Company pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 5.08. Shareholder Director Nominations.
On March 21, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors established the date of the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2022 Annual Meeting”). The 2022 Annual Meeting will be held on June 7, 2022, and the record date for the 2022 Annual Meeting will be April 11, 2022. The time of the 2022 Annual Meeting will be set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2022 Annual Meeting to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is holding the 2022 Annual Meeting as a virtual-only meeting, which will be conducted via live audio online webcast.
The Company’s bylaws permit stockholders to bring director nominations and other proposals for consideration at the 2022 Annual Meeting, provided they comply with the notice and other requirements set forth in the bylaws and SEC rules. Because the Company did not hold an annual meeting of stockholders during the previous year, all stockholder notices to bring director nominations and other matters before the 2022 Annual Meeting must be received by the Company no later than April 3, 2022, which is the tenth date following this public announcement of the 2022 Annual Meeting date. This is also the date the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials, and therefore, under SEC rules, any stockholder who wishes to include director nominations or other proposals in the Company's proxy materials for the 2022 Annual Meeting must submit proper notice no later than April 3, 2022. Stockholders may submit written notice for any director nomination or other proposal to:
Surrozen, Inc.,
Attn: Corporate Secretary
171 Oyster Point Blvd., Suite 400
South San Francisco, California 94080
Any written notice pursuant to the foregoing must also comply with all other applicable requirements found in the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including Rule 14a-8, the Delaware General Corporation Law, and the Company’s bylaws.
