Murchinson Calls on Nano Dimension to Heed Shareholders’ Resounding Call For Change and Promptly Seat the New Board

TORONTO--()--Murchinson Ltd. (collectively with its affiliates and funds it advises and/or sub-advises, “Murchinson” or “we”), the largest shareholder with approximately 5.5% of the outstanding shares of Nano Dimension Ltd. (NASDAQ: NNDM) (“Nano Dimension” or the “Company”), announced that all four of Murchinson’s proposals received overwhelming support at today’s Special General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Special Meeting”), resulting in a much needed reconstitution of the Nano Dimension Board of Directors (the “Board”) and improvement to the Company’s corporate governance practices.

Based on the report provided by Murchinson’s proxy solicitor:

  • Each of Murchinson’s four proposals received support from approximately 92% of the votes cast for the Special Meeting (excluding abstentions).
  • Notably, Proposal 3a – to remove Chairman and CEO Yoav Stern from the Board – received support from at least 92% of the votes cast for the Special Meeting (excluding abstentions), meaning more than 11 times as many shares were voted to remove Mr. Stern as were voted for him to remain.
  • Both Proposal 1, which would allow shareholders to fill vacancies on the Board, and Proposal 2, which would allow shareholders to remove directors by a simple majority, received support from more than 95% of the votes cast for the Special Meeting.
  • In total, 56,042,891 shares were cast for the meeting – an impressive number given that the Company repeatedly discouraged shareholders from voting at the meeting, refused to recognize its legal validity and also filed a lawsuit to declare its illegality.1
  • The full results of the Special Meeting are included in the appendix below.

Murchinson commented on the results: “The numbers speak for themselves: shareholders have sent a clear message that change is urgently needed at Nano Dimension. As we have consistently said throughout our campaign, the only way to reverse the trend of underperformance and terrible corporate governance that has plagued Nano Dimension is with a reconstituted Board that will put the interests of shareholders first. We are grateful to our fellow shareholders for their support throughout our campaign in achieving this goal. We now call on the incumbent Nano Dimension Board to do what is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and promptly enact the Board changes shareholders have supported. We further urge the Company to withdraw the lawsuit and respect the will of the shareholders, thereby avoiding further cost and disruption.”

Murchinson’s specific proposals were:

  1. Amend and restate Article 41 (Continuing Directors in the Event of Vacancies) of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association to allow shareholders to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors of the Company at a general meeting of shareholders of the Company.
  2. Amend and restate clause (f) of Article 42 (Vacation of Office) of the Articles of Association to allow shareholders to remove directors by a simple majority at a general meeting of shareholders of the Company.
  3. Remove four current directors of the Company: Mr. Stern, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, Oded Gera, Igal Rotem and Dr. Yoav Nissan-Cohen, in addition to any and all new directors appointed by the Board (if any) following December 19, 2022 and until the conclusion of the Meeting.
  4. Appoint two candidates – Mr. Kenneth H. Traub and Dr. Joshua Rosensweig – to serve as directors of the Company.
