Ensysce Biosciences Postpones Special Meeting of Stockholders to December 29, 2023

SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / December 19, 2023 / Ensysce Biosciences, Inc. ("Ensysce" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:ENSC), today announced that the Company's Special Meeting of Stockholders (the "Special Meeting") to be held on December 20, 2023 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time has been postponed due to lack of the required quorum.

A quorum consists of one third of the outstanding shares of our common stock (present in person (including virtually) or represented by proxy). There would be fewer than one third of the outstanding shares of our common stock (present in person (including virtually) or represented by proxy) present, either in person or by proxy at the time of the meeting. The Special Meeting therefore would have had no quorum, and the meeting was postponed to 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time on Friday, December 29, 2023, to allow additional time for the Company's stockholders to vote on the proposals set forth in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 13, 2023.

Stockholders who have previously submitted their proxies or otherwise voted and who do not want to change their vote need not take any action. Stockholders who held Company common stock as of the record date of October 30, 2023 can vote, even if they have subsequently sold their shares, at https://www.iproxydirect.com/ensc. There is no change to the location, the record date, the purpose or any of the proposals to be acted upon at the Special Meeting. The meeting will be held via live audio-only webcast at https://agm.issuerdirect.com/ensc.

During the postponement, the Company expects to continue to solicit votes from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Company's proxy statement. If the number of additional shares of common stock voted at the postponed Special Meeting is not sufficient to reach a quorum, the Company may seek to postpone the Special Meeting again, which will require the Company to incur additional costs.
