Fans can test new “Flavor Filters” and Enter for a Chance to Win an Experience Fit for a Lead Guitarist, Stallion Trainer, Race Car Driver and more

PLANO, Texas, Aug. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Despite the endless amount of job listings that say they need a “rock star” or someone who can “slay,” Gen Z are often required to tone down their vibrant personalities and quirks in the workplace. That’s why, following National Authenticity Day and leading up to job hunting season, Jack Link’s® and Frito-Lay® are giving Gen Z the opportunity to meat their inner flavor.

Young 9-to-5’ers experiencing the collective yawn known as “job bore out” are encouraged to embrace their flavorful personalities by creating new, flavor-fied headshots on meatyourinnerflavor.com, where they can also enter for a chance to win an experience fit for a lead guitarist, stallion trainer, and racecar driver (with $5,000 to-boot!). By uploading their selfie and using a “Flavor Filter” that matches their own boldness, fans will receive brand-new headshot that’s perfectly fit to set their professional profiles ablaze. Entrants are also encouraged to upload their flavor-fied photo to LinkedIn and post to their feed with the hashtag #OpenToFlavor.

Each title is inspired by the brand’s new ‘Meat Your Flavor’ video series, which highlights how Jack Link’s Flamin’ Hot®, Fritos® Chili Cheese and Doritos® Spicy Sweet Chili flavored meat snacks unleashes the ‘you’ with more flavor.

“Just like our iconic collaboration with Jack Link’s, flavor is Gen Z’s superpower. We’re not about fitting them in boxes; we’re about stoking their inner flames,” said Leslie Vesper, Vice President of Marketing at Frito-Lay. “It’s our goal at Frito-Lay to disrupt the mundane and create innovative, epic flavors that meat the bold kaleidoscope of Gen Z personalities beyond snacking.”

“At Jack Link’s, creativity is at the core of everything we do. Our mission is to craft amazing flavors that reflect the vibrant and unique personalities of our fans,” said Molly Russell, Director of Marketing for the Jack Link’s brand. “Through our partnership with Frito-Lay, we’ve discovered new ways to excite meat snack enthusiasts with flavors they’ll love.”

Each winner’s package* includes a gift card to enjoy an experience like attending a concert, horseback riding or a racecar ride along plus, $5,000 and deliciously flavorful office snacks including Jack Link’s Fritos Chili Cheese, Flamin’ Hot and Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili flavored Beef Jerky and Meat Sticks.

Lunai Bioworks Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Determination and Intention to Voluntarily Delist and Deregister

Published

October 22, 2026

By

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Lunai Bioworks Inc. (Nasdaq: LNAI) (the “Company”) announced that on October 21, 2026, it received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires minimum stockholders’ equity of $2,500,000. The Company reported a stockholders’ deficit of $(9,024,946) in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, and does not meet the alternative market value of listed securities or net income standards. Because the Company is subject to a mandatory Hearings Panel Monitor under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B), Nasdaq staff determined to delist the Company’s securities. Trading in the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq is expected to be suspended at the opening of business on October 30, 2026.

The Company will not request a hearing. Rather than contest the staff determination, the Company’s Board of Directors approved on October 22, 2026 the voluntary withdrawal of the Company’s common stock from listing on Nasdaq under Rule 12d2-2(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Board took this action because of the staff determination and the Company’s financial condition, and concluded that the cost of continued listing and SEC reporting is not justified.

The Company notified Nasdaq of its intention on October 22, 2026. The Company intends to file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or about November 2, 2026, and expects the delisting to become effective on or about November 12, 2026. The Company then intends to file a Form 15 to suspend its SEC reporting obligations, to the extent it is eligible to do so. The Company’s SEC reporting obligations will continue unless and until they are terminated or suspended in accordance with the SEC’s rules.

The Company does not intend to arrange for quotation of its common stock on any over-the-counter market and cannot assure that any trading market for its common stock will exist after trading on Nasdaq is suspended.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the expected suspension of trading, the expected timing of the Form 25 and Form 15 filings, and the expected timing of delisting and deregistration. Actual results may differ materially due to risks and uncertainties, including Nasdaq and SEC procedures and the Company’s financial condition. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these statements, except as required by law.

By

KISTA, Sweden, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Extraordinary General Meeting in Sivers Semiconductors AB (the “Company”) was held on 22 October 2026 and in particular the following resolutions were resolved.

Election of auditor

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the Nomination Committee’s proposal, to terminate the assignment of the Company’s auditor Deloitte AB and to elect Ernst & Young AB as new auditor for the period until the close of the next Annual General Meeting.

Resolution on a long-term incentive program

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved to introduce a long-term incentive program (the “P11”) for employees of the group in the United States, Scotland, Sweden, India and China.

P11 comprises a maximum of 7,280,000 stock options entitling to purchase of the same number of shares, corresponding to approximately 2.0 per cent of the shares and votes in the Company after dilution. The stock options are granted free of charge, are not subject to any performance conditions, and may not be transferred or pledged. Each vested stock option entitles the employee to acquire one ordinary share between the third and the sixth anniversary of the date of grant, at a price corresponding to 110 per cent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the five trading days immediately preceding the date of grant.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on directed issue of Series C shares

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to, until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve on a new issue of no more than 7,280,000 Series C shares to be subscribed for by a bank or securities company at a subscription price corresponding to the quota value.

The purpose is to secure delivery of shares to participants under the Company’s outstanding incentive programs and payment of related social security charges. The Series C shares will be reclassified into ordinary shares before transfer to participants.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on repurchase of Series C shares and transfer of ordinary shares to secure payment of social security charges

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to, until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve on repurchases of all outstanding Series C shares, at a price corresponding to the quota value.

The Board of Directors was further authorised to, until the next Annual General Meeting, transfer own ordinary shares on Nasdaq Stockholm within the applicable price range, or outside Nasdaq Stockholm to a bank or securities company with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights at such market discount as the Board of Directors deems appropriate, to the extent required to secure payment of social security charges related to the Company’s outstanding incentive programs.
