Subject: Annual Shareholder Meeting
To All Coherus Employees,
We filed our Preliminary Proxy last week to announce our Annual Shareholder Meeting to be held virtually on May 27, 2026, at 1:30pm PST. There are several proposals in the Proxy for shareholders to vote on, including a proposal to reprice employee stock options which have strike prices that are $5 and above down to the closing price on the date of the meeting. The proposal requires that a majority of votes cast "FOR" to pass. We encourage you to vote your shares when you receive the proxy in the mail!
We anticipate filing the definitive proxy on April 20th which will provide more information.
Thank you, Rebecca
Rebecca Sunshine
