County honors Harren Gjersvik, say goodbye
Apr. 22—In the recognition and awards portion of Tuesday morning's Mower County Board of Commissioners meeting, the board and several Mower County staff members honored County Administrator Trish Harren Gjersvik for over six years of service.
Harren Gjersvik announced earlier this month that she was stepping down to take the City Administrator position with the City of Crosby, which is near Brainerd.
The presentation, which was oftentimes emotional, featured several from the county who spoke directly to the impact Harren Gjersvik has had on their own time with the county.
"When I started here, It was a leap of faith because I came from a county where I had an amazing administrator," said Kris Kohn, the head of Human Resources. "I really found a mentor and a teammate and someone who believes in my abilities."
That support was a common theme across the board for many of those who spoke including Board Chair Polly Glynn, who lauded Harren Gjersvik for her dedication to the county and what she was leaving behind.
"We are saying goodbye and allowing her to phase into retirement while being closer to her family," Glynn read from a statement. "Trish, you've left your tracks and you certainly paved the way. You will be missed, but never forgotten."
At the same time, Harren Gjersvik has been recognized for her time collaborating with the City of Austin, something that was noted by Austin Police Chief David McKichan.
"Everybody on the city side has said great things. She's been a great collaborative partner," McKichan said. "From the city perspective, she's just been a great person to work with and I think the city and county are much stronger for you being here."
For her part, Harren Gjersvik expressed the joy she's had working in role as the first county administrator for Mower County after the transition from county coordinator. While she nearly left once before, this time she said everything was in the palace to make the move smooth.
"I thought I was ready. The county was ready," Harren Gjersvik said. "Neither the county nor myself was ready and today we're in a very different place. There are so many great leaders I'm actually not needed.
But more than helping guide the county to a stronger base, Harren Gjersvik said her favorite part was finding success with the employees of the county, something she did Tuesday morning when she announced that Kohn was this year's Leader of the Year for Mower County.
"My favorite aspect of my job really is celebrating others," Harren Gjersvik said. "Kris is not just a leader, but a pillar of strength for everyone."
Harren Gjersvik's last day with the county is Friday and then she will start her job with Crosby on April 28.

ADAR1 Issues Statement on Keros Therapeutics' Troubling 2025 Director Election Results and Insufficient Capital Return Proposal
Significant Withhold Votes from Directors Mary Ann Gray and Alpna Seth Underscores Need for Change and a More Disciplined Capital Allocation Strategy AUSTIN, Texas, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ADAR1 Capital Management, LLC (together with its affiliates, "ADAR1" or "We"), the largest stockholder of Keros Therapeutics (Nasdaq: KROS) ("Keros" or the "Company"), today issued the following statement regarding the results of the Company's 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"): "We believe the outcome of the Annual Meeting underscores what we have consistently conveyed to Keros' Board of Directors: there is broad and growing concern among stockholders regarding the Board's capital allocation decisions and fidelity to stockholder interests. ADAR1 previously disclosed its intention to withhold votes from Dr. Mary Ann Gray and Dr. Alpna Seth at the Annual Meeting. These two directors received among the highest level of shareholder opposition of any directors standing for election in 2025. In our view, this result reflects a substantial loss of stockholder confidence in the Board and clear dissatisfaction with the status quo. With only approximately 34% of outstanding shares voting to elect Dr. Gray and only 37% voting to elect Dr. Seth, the Board must recognize the widespread dissatisfaction with its stewardship of the Company. We appreciate the Company's recent decision to discontinue development of cibotercept in pulmonary arterial hypertension and, finally, implement a reduction in headcount. While these delayed actions are directionally positive, they are wholly insufficient and, in our view, are overshadowed by the Board's baffling decision to return only a modest portion of the Company's excess capital to stockholders. We can think of no credible justification for the Company to retain approximately half of its cash balance given its limited clinical pipeline and commercial prospects. In fact, at an investor conference today, CEO Jasbir Seehra acknowledged that the capital being held exceeds what is needed to fund the Company's current DMD program and may instead be used to pursue other high risk, hyper-competitive indications. Even more troubling is the lack of detail around the proposed capital return ― including the Board's failure to specify the terms, timing and method ― despite its claims to have completed a "thorough" and "comprehensive" review of strategic alternatives. In our view, this reflects a haphazard and incoherent approach to decision-making. In order for the Board to follow through on its stated commitment to maximizing value, it must take immediate and concrete action to reduce costs more aggressively, commit to returning $475 million (i.e., an additional $100 million over the currently proposed amount) to stockholders through a special dividend by the end of Q3 2025, and ensure that stockholders can directly capture the potential cash flow from the Takeda partnership through a contingent value right or similar mechanism, which should be implemented no later than year-end. ADAR1 continues to believe Keros possesses significant upside potential. But realizing that potential will require fresh perspectives in the boardroom and a disciplined, investor-focused approach to capital stewardship. Shareholders have spoken and the current directors do not have the support of a majority of shareholders. If the Board nevertheless insists on clinging to a failed strategy, ADAR1 will not hesitate to hold it accountable, including by nominating new directors for election at the 2026 Annual Meeting. We are committed to ensuring that the will of investors is not ignored, and we will continue engaging with the Company and our fellow investors to see that the desires of stockholders are heard and respected."

Deep Track Capital Sends Letter to Dynavax Technologies Shareholders Offering Final Perspectives on Why Change is Needed in the Boardroom
Deep Track's Nominees Are Prepared to Collectively Enter the Boardroom with Open-Minded Perspectives, Constructive Approach and Sole Focus on Creating Value for All Shareholders Believes that Without Meaningful Board Change "Valid and Critical Questions Regarding Dynavax's Strategic Direction, Capital Allocation, and Board Responsiveness" Will Remain Unanswered Details Urgent Need to Address Company's Consistent Failure to Achieve Stated Targets and Reverse Heplisav Market Share Stagnation GREENWICH, Conn., June 09, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Deep Track Capital, LP, (together with its affiliates, "Deep Track" or "we"), one of the largest shareholders of Dynavax Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: DVAX) ("Dynavax", "DVAX" or the "Company"), with ownership of approximately 14.82% of the Company's outstanding shares, today issued a letter to shareholders detailing the benefits of electing Deep Track's four nominees – Brett Erkman, Jeffrey Farrow, Michael Mullette and Donald Santel – to the Board of Directors (the "Board") at the upcoming 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") on June 11, 2025. For more information, including details on how to vote Deep Track's WHITE proxy card, please visit The full text of the letter follows: Dear Fellow Dynavax shareholders, We would like to express our appreciation for the opportunity we have had over the course of this campaign to engage with so many of you. Deep Track undertook this effort because, as one of Dynavax's largest and longest-tenured shareholders, we believe deeply in the Company and its value creation potential. With the Annual Meeting now only a few days away, we want to convey a few final thoughts about why we believe new, independent and fully objective perspectives should be added to the Board. First, the numbers speak for themselves. The key asset at Dynavax is Heplisav, but under the Board's increasing pressure for inorganic growth, Heplisav is not reaching its full potential. As outlined in the Company's proxy statement1, Heplisav failed to achieve both key metrics established by the Board: 2024 Board Target 2024 Result Outcome Heplisav U.S. sales $275 million $268 million Missed by $7 million U.S. market share in 4Q 47% 44% Missed by 3 p.p. Management cautions that market share numbers should only be evaluated on a year-over-year basis and dismisses the slip to 43% market share in the first quarter of 2025. But even through that lens the numbers are troubling: fourth quarter market share in 2023 was 42%2, which means there were only two percentage points of growth in 2024 – a substantial decline from the seven points achieved in the year prior. At this rate, Heplisav will fall far short of the Company's 60% target for 2030 – yet management contended on the earnings call last month that this is "exactly how we had planned."3 Shares fell 11% the next day.4 We believe that growing questions about Heplisav growth with a distracted management team combined with an outsized cash pile with no coherent strategy for deployment have taken their toll on the share price. While the Company points to a "pivot" in 2019 when it made the unsurprising choice to focus on its only approved product, this reference point ignores the multi-year losses since then – both on an absolute basis and against the Company's benchmark historically used in its own proxy filings5, the Nasdaq Biotechnology Index (NBI): DVAX NBI DVAX vs. NBI One year -17% -6% -10% Two years -12% +2% -14% Three years -15% +17% -32% Slowing market share growth, missed revenue targets, and a stock price meaningfully underperforming the Company's index for years all point to fundamental problems at Dynavax – problems that are a direct result of the questionable Board strategy of diversifying the Company away from its lead asset. Second, without new voices in the boardroom, nothing will change. As leading proxy advisory firm Glass, Lewis & Co. ("Glass Lewis") noted in its report,6 our campaign "…highlighted valid and critical questions regarding Dynavax's strategic direction, capital allocation, and board responsiveness." By voting for the incumbent directors up for election, you would be voting to leave these questions unaddressed and effectively assenting to the current strategy set by Chairman Scott Myers without any further debate, assessment, or new thinking. As Glass Lewis wrote when recommending against Mr. Myers, shareholders would be "best served" by electing Deep Track directors who would bring "relevant and differentiated perspectives to the Board." Shareholders must also keep in mind that a "wait and see" approach simply will not work. Due to the Board's imbalanced class of directors and the classified structure not ending until 2028, there is only one independent director up for election next year – making this year's Annual Meeting a uniquely important opportunity to effect real change.7 Finally, the truth about Deep Track and our nominees. The current Board has made repeated and increasingly baseless mischaracterizations regarding Deep Track, our nominees and our campaign. Consider these facts: Our director nominees are open-minded and ready to work constructively to do what is best for all Dynavax shareholders. Suggesting that highly respected and experienced professionals like our nominees would violate their fiduciary duties is nothing more than campaign theatre. The Company has particularly targeted Deep Track principal Brett Erkman, accusing him of being "rigid" in his views. In fact, all evidence points to the contrary: in the years of engagement Brett has had with Dynavax and the communications over the course of this campaign (including the very last settlement offer he proposed to Ryan Spencer on April 17, 2025, which the Board flatly rejected over a week later with no substantive dialogue in the interim), Brett consistently and explicitly made clear that he was always "open to discussion" and "happy to engage" on any point of potentially differing opinions, including specifics on capital allocation, board composition and the components of the two-year standstill. Deep Track is one of Dynavax's largest and longest-tenured investors – the antithesis of "short-term." Our principals first invested in Dynavax a decade before any incumbent director up for election this year had joined the Board. The idea that we are looking for a quick profit at the expense of the Company's best interests is simply false. We also do not understand how the Board can believe a single shareholder representative could engineer such an outcome; again, this is more theatre that defies logic and yet another attempt to distract from the facts. Deep Track is not a typical "activist" – this is the first time we have publicly engaged at all with a portfolio company, much less run a proxy contest. Our nominees would bring needed valuable experience, independence and investor perspective to the Dynavax Board. Throughout this campaign, we have struggled to understand why Dynavax has fought so hard (while spending shareholder capital) to prevent a nearly 15% shareholder from having a representative on the Board. Regardless of these motivations, the reality is that our directors are needed. As Glass Lewis concluded in its report, "...we find that the board is notably lacking in directors with direct capital markets or institutional investor backgrounds," and specifically regarding Brett, "Mr. Erkman's extensive background as a public equity investor in the life sciences sector addresses what we believe is a notable deficiency in the current board's composition and could help sharpen the board's approach to capital allocation, shareholder engagement, and long-term value creation." We appreciate you taking the time to consider our views. We truly believe that by voting for all four Deep Track nominees, you can help to unlock the value that Dynavax can deliver and put the Company on a better path to success.

Burcon Achieves First Commercial Production of Pea Protein
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 9, 2025) - Burcon NutraScience Corporation (TSX: BU) (OTCQB: BRCNF) ("Burcon" or the "Company"), a global technology leader in plant-based protein innovation, is pleased to announce the successful first commercial production run of its next-generation Peazazz®C pea protein at its Galesburg facility in Illinois, USA. "The successful startup of our Galesburg facility marks a key operational milestone in Burcon's commercial scale-up," said Kip Underwood, Burcon's chief executive officer. "In less than 90 days since commissioning, our team has brought next-generation protein production online, enabling us to meet accelerating customer demand and unlock scalable revenue opportunities." Burcon remains on track to achieve key operational and financial milestones through 2025/2026. The Company anticipates the following revenue targets: $1-3 million in revenue for calendar year 2025 $10+ million in revenue for calendar year 2026 Positive cash flow projected to be achieved in calendar year 2026 With commercial production now underway and ramping through the second half of 2025, Burcon is actively progressing customer supply agreements that will support long-term recurring revenue. The Galesburg facility provides meaningful capacity to scale production and positions the Company to execute its growth plan, expand market penetration, and drive long-term enterprise value. Share Consolidation Burcon announces it has consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares (the "Shares") at a ratio of twenty (20) pre-consolidation Shares to one (1) post-consolidation share (the "Consolidation"). The Shares are expected to commence trading on the TSX on a post-Consolidation basis at the start of trading on June 11, 2025. The Company's name and trading symbol will remain the same after the Consolidation. Peter H. Kappel, Burcon's Chairman of the board commented: "We are confidently advancing our strategic plan, and the Consolidation marks a key step in optimizing our capital structure and unlocking long-term value for shareholders. This initiative is designed to attract new investors, improve the marketability of our common shares, and position Burcon for future growth." The Consolidation has been approved by the board of directors of Burcon (the "Board") and by shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") pursuant to the share consolidation authorizing resolution approved at the Company's most recent annual general and special meeting of Shareholders held on September 18, 2024. As discussed in greater detail in the management information circular of the Company dated August 1, 2024, the Board believes that implementing the Consolidation is in the best interests of the Company as it could lead to increased interest by a wider audience of potential investors and result in less volatility resulting in a more efficient market for the Common Shares. The Board also regularly evaluates other opportunities to increase the Company's access to capital markets and the Consolidation could allow the Company to access other exchanges that have minimum listing requirements. No fractional Shares will be issued under the Consolidation. The holdings of any Shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional Share as a result of the Consolidation shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number if the fraction is 0.5 or greater and rounded down to the next lower whole number if the fraction is less than 0.5. The Consolidation will not affect any Shareholder's percentage ownership in the Company other than by the minimal effect of the aforementioned elimination of fractional Shares, even though such ownership will be represented by a smaller number of Shares. Instead, the Consolidation will reduce proportionately the number of Shares held by all Shareholders. There were 253,761,444 common shares of Burcon outstanding prior to the Consolidation. Shareholders who hold uncertificated Shares (including Shares held through a brokerage account and/or not represented by a physical share certificate), will have their holdings electronically adjusted by the Company's transfer agent or by their brokerage firms, banks, trust or other nominees. Such Shareholders do not need to take any additional actions to exchange their pre-Consolidation Shares for post-Consolidation Shares. Letters of transmittal are being mailed to all registered Shareholders holding share certificates with instructions on how to exchange existing share certificate(s) for new share certificate(s). A copy of the letter of transmittal will also be available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+. The Company's new CUSIP number for the post-Consolidation Shares will be 120831300 and its new ISIN number is CA1208313009. The exercise price and number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of Burcon's outstanding warrants will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the Consolidation in accordance with the terms of such securities.
