Tilray faces shareholder class action challenging authorized share vote standard
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Lawsuit filed Oct 31, 2024 in Delaware Chancery claims proxy statements improperly used votes-cast standard instead of majority-of-outstanding shares for share increases.
- Plaintiff seeks to enjoin Nov 21, 2024 vote on 2024 Authorized Shares Proposal (increase from 1.198B to 1.416B shares).
- Company argues 2023 authorized increase (208.6M for, 85.2M against) was valid under DGCL §242(d) and ISS recommends 2024 proposal.
- If plaintiff prevails, 2023 increase from 980M to 1.198B shares could be invalid, affecting capital structure and acquisition flexibility.
- Tilray intends to defend vigorously; management needs additional authorized shares for strategic objectives including M&A.
