**** IMPORTANT REMINDER ****
Dear Histogen Inc. Stockholder:
By now, you should have received your proxy materials for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Histogen Inc., which is scheduled to be held virtually, via live webcast, on June 1, 2022. If you have already voted, we would like to thank you for your vote.
Your vote is extremely important. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE TODAY. The fastest and easiest way to vote is by telephone or over the Internet. Instructions on how to vote your shares over the telephone or Internet are enclosed with this letter.
WE URGE YOU TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE TODAY.
Your Board recommends that you vote “FOR” ALL proposals. Even if you plan on attending the virtual meeting, we urge you to vote your shares now, so they can be tabulated prior to the meeting
As reminder, that if you indicate a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon on your voting instruction card, the shares will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you do not indicate a choice or return the voting instruction card, the broker, bank or other nominee will determine if it has the discretionary authority to vote on each matter. Under applicable regulations, a broker, bank or nominee has the discretion to vote on routine matters, including Proposal 2 (“Reverse Stock Split Proposal”) and Proposal 3 (“Auditor Ratification Proposal”). However, whether brokers have discretion to vote on matters is ultimately determined by the brokers and their relevant regulator on this matter. It is nonetheless very important for you to vote your shares for each proposal.
****PLEASE VOTE TODAY****
If you have questions or need help voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitation firm, Kingsdale Shareholder Services, U.S. LLC at 1-855-476-7982.
