Appeal Decision By Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court Supports Right of Prime Success and Vivo Capital to Participate in Critical Sinovac Biotech Shareholder Vote
Decision Stays Attempt of 1Globe to Disenfranchise Shareholders
The decision confirmed Vivo and Prime Success were permitted to attend and vote in the July 8th shareholder meeting as valid shareholders. Allowing 1Globe’s actions to proceed would have harmed shareholder rights and undermined the integrity of the Company’s governance structure, and Vivo thanks the Court for granting the stay.
Since its 2018 investment in Sinovac, Vivo has contributed immensely to the Company’s success to the benefit of all shareholders, including by providing incremental investment vital to the success of CoronaVac. By contrast, 1Globe obtained control of Sinovac by unscrupulous, dishonest, and criminal conduct and by surreptitiously purchasing its position in the open market without contributing a single dollar or otherwise providing any support to the Company.
Vivo has remained steadfast in its mission to restore trust in Sinovac’s governance, and ultimately, position the Company to resume trading and return cash to shareholders.
