As previously announced, at a special meeting held on March 31, 2026, the stockholders of VolitionRx Limited (the “Company”) approved a proposal granting the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) the authority to exercise its discretion to amend the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”), to effect a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), with the specific ratio to be determined by the Board within the range that was approved by the stockholders of the Company in connection therewith. The Board subsequently approved the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of one-for-twenty.
On April 27, 2026, the Company filed a Certificate of Third Amendment of the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Delaware Secretary of State, which amended Section 6.1 of Article 6 of the Restated Certificate, effective as of 12:01 a.m. ET on April 28, 2026, to (i) give effect to the Reverse Stock Split, and (ii) describe the treatment of any fractional shares of Common Stock upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.
The foregoing summary of the terms of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
