This proposal was revised on April 24. Our Board carefully reviewed and considered the revised proposal in consultation with independent financial and legal advisors to determine the best course of action. Earlier today, we issued a press release [Link] announcing that the Board has unanimously determined to reject the proposal after concluding that it is not in the best interest of the Company, our customers, employees or stockholders.\n\n \n\nThe Board’s decision reflects our confidence in Seer’s strategy and the compelling opportunities ahead as we continue to advance our platform. We are building a market from the ground up, and we are excited about the future as we work to expand our relationship with you in the years to come.\n\n \n\nImportantly, we want to assure you that this news has no impact on our business, our strategy or our commitment to providing you with the same high-quality products and services you have come to expect from Seer. We are operating as usual and remain focused on empowering the scientific community with tools that help them to achieve exceptional outcomes.\n\n \n\nIf you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to [me / your usual Seer contact]. Should there be news to share, you can expect to hear from us directly.\n\n \n\nThank you for your continued partnership and ongoing support.\n\n \n\nBest,\n\n[Name]\n\n \n\nAdditional Information and Where to Find It\n\n \n\nSeer, its directors and certain executive officers are participants in the solicitation of proxies from stockholders in connection with Seer’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Seer plans to file a proxy statement (the “2026 Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting.\n\n \n\nOmid Farokhzad, Meeta Gulyani, Robert Langer, Terrance McGuire, Deep Nishar, Isaac Ro and Nicolas Roelofs, all of whom are members of Seer’s board of directors, and David Horn, Seer’s president and chief financial officer, are participants in Seer’s solicitation. Additional information regarding such participants, including their direct or indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, will be included in the 2026 Proxy Statement and other relevant documents to be filed by Seer with the SEC in connection with the Annual Meeting. Information relating to the foregoing can also be found in Seer’s definitive proxy statement for its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2025 Proxy Statement”), which was filed with the SEC on May 28, 2025, and is available [here](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1726445/000095017025078352/ck0001726445-20250528.htm). Particular attention is directed to the sections of the 2025 Proxy Statement captioned “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance,” “Executive Compensation,” “Named Executive Officer Compensation Overview,” “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” and “Certain Relationships, Related Party and Other Transactions.” To the extent that holdings of such participants in Seer’s securities have changed since the amounts printed in the 2025 Proxy Statement, such changes have been reflected on the following filings: for Mr. Farokhzad, on [May 22, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1586852/000141588925014126/xslF345X05/form4-05222025_080542.xml), [August 21, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1586852/000141588925022594/xslF345X05/form4-08212025_080814.xml), [November 21, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1586852/000158685225000004/xslF345X05/form4-11212025_101143.xml), [December 11, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1586852/000158685225000007/xslF345X05/form4-12122025_011232.xml), [February 5, 2026](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1726445/000158685226000002/xslF345X05/form4-02052026_110217.xml), and [February 19, 2026](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1586852/000158685226000004/xslF345X05/form4-02192026_090239.xml); for Ms. Gulyani, on [July 9, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1896292/000141588925019569/xslF345X05/form4-07092025_080759.xml); for Mr. Langer, on [July 9, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1239757/000141588925019571/xslF345X05/form4-07092025_080719.xml); for Mr. McGuire, on [July 9, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1117003/000141588925019573/xslF345X05/form4-07092025_080731.xml) and [December 11, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1726445/000111700325000005/xslF345X05/form4-12122025_011208.xml); for Mr. Nishar, on [June 16, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1519500/000141588925017434/xslF345X05/form4-06162025_100649.xml) and [July 9, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1519500/000141588925019575/xslF345X05/form4-07092025_080759.xml); for Mr. Ro, on [September 3, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1873463/000141588925023618/xslF345X05/form4-09042025_010927.xml); for Mr. Roelofs, on [July 9, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1292341/000141588925019577/xslF345X05/form4-07092025_080741.xml); and for Mr. Horn, on [May 22, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1834217/000141588925014130/xslF345X05/form4-05222025_080548.xml); [August 21, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1834217/000141588925022596/xslF345X05/form4-08212025_080834.xml); [November 21, 2025](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1834217/000183421725000005/xslF345X05/form4-11212025_101114.xml), [February 5, 2026](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1834217/000183421726000002/xslF345X05/form4-02052026_110224.xml), and [February 19, 2026](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1834217/000183421726000004/xslF345X05/form4-02192026_090244.xml).\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nPromptly after filing its definitive 2026 Proxy Statement with the SEC, Seer will mail the definitive 2026 Proxy Statement and a BLUE proxy card to each stockholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
