NOTICE OF 2024 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
Notice is hereby given that the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Voyager Therapeutics, Inc., or the Annual Meeting, will be held on Wednesday, June 5, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, at our offices at 75 Hayden Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts 02421.
We intend to hold the Annual Meeting in person. As always, we encourage you to vote your shares prior to the Annual Meeting regardless of whether you plan to attend in person.
The purpose of the Annual Meeting is the following:
| 1. | to elect three directors, Michael Higgins, Jude Onyia, Ph. D., and Nancy Vitale, each to serve as a Class III director until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, subject to his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal; |
| 2. | to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers; |
| 3. | to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024; and |
| 4. | to transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. |
The proposal for the election of directors relates solely to the election of Class III directors nominated by the Board of Directors.
Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on April 8, 2024, will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any stockholder, for any purpose related to the Annual Meeting, during ordinary business hours for ten days prior to the Annual Meeting at our offices at 75 Hayden Avenue, Lexington, MA 02421 and at the time and place of the Annual Meeting during the whole time thereof.
We are pleased to take advantage of SEC rules that allow companies to furnish their proxy materials over the Internet. We are mailing to many of our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or Notice, instead of a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Notice contains instructions on how to access those documents and to cast your vote via the Internet. The Notice also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. All stockholders who do not receive a Notice will receive a paper copy of the proxy materials and the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K by mail. This process allows us to provide our stockholders with the information they need on a more timely basis, while reducing the environmental impact and lowering the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials. If your shares are held in street name (held for your account by a broker or other nominee), you will receive instructions from your broker or other holder of record that you must follow for your shares to be voted. The mailing of the Notice to our stockholders is scheduled to begin on April 25, 2024.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you are able to attend the Annual Meeting in person, it is important that your shares be represented. To ensure that your vote is recorded promptly, please vote as soon as possible, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, by submitting your proxy via the Internet at the address listed on the proxy card or by signing, dating and returning the proxy card.
