Monitor the shareholder vote outcome on November 12, 2026. If approved, watch for warrant holders to increase their stakes and potentially exercise warrants, which could bring in capital but also dilute existing shareholders. The 61-day notice period means any ownership increases would not be effective until at least mid-January 2027.

Executive Summary
Quoin Pharmaceuticals is holding a special shareholder meeting on November 12, 2026, to vote on two proposals: (1) amending beneficial ownership limitations on warrants from prior private placements (October 2025 and August 2026) from 4.99% to up to 9.99%, and (2) adjourning the meeting if needed. The board recommends voting FOR both. The amendment would allow warrant holders to increase their stake, potentially accelerating warrant exercises and company proceeds, but also increases dilution risk for existing shareholders.
