Other Events.

On or about October 7, 2022, certain stockholders of 23andMe Holding Co. (the “Company”) voluntarily converted shares of their Class B common stock (which is entitled to ten votes per share) into shares of Class A common stock (which is entitled to one vote per share) (the “Conversion”). Shares of Class B common stock may be converted by the holders thereof at any time into shares of Class A common stock. As a result of the Conversion, the combined voting power of the shares of Class A common stock and the shares of Class B common stock beneficially owned by Anne Wojcicki, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chair of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), and Co-Founder, automatically increased from approximately 46.05% to approximately 50.08%. As a result of this automatic increase, the Company is now considered a “controlled company” under applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. However, the Company has no intention of utilizing any of the available exemptions under the Nasdaq Listing Rules for controlled companies and intends to maintain its independent Board and Board committees.
