On September 14, 2023, Jonathan Milner announced his decision to vote against the proposed acquisition of Abcam by Danaher Corporation or its affiliates, his decision to oppose the acquisition is informed by feedback received from many shareholders and analysts, who share his belief that the $24 per share offer announced on August 28, 2023 by the Company substantially undervalues the Company, and when considering the potential of the Company as an independent entity with an effective Board and Executive Leadership, the proposed acquisition price falls significantly short of its inherent worth. In addition, Jonathan Milner stated that he will formally request the Company to convene an extraordinary general meeting with the purpose of replacing the Company?s board, including the current CEO, CFO and Chairman. Further, Jonathan Milner stated that he will publish a proxy statement and accompanying proxy card in due course to be used to solicit votes in support of the proposals that will be presented for shareholder vote at the proposed extraordinary annual meeting of stockholders of the Company.
