ITEM 5.07 SUBMISSION OF A MATTER TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

On June 18, 2024, the Company held an Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The record date for the stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting was May 28, 2024. At the close of business on the record date, the Company had 6,837,711 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting. Of the 6,837,711 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting, 5,457,897 shares (or 79.82%), constituting a quorum, were represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. At the Annual Meeting, three proposals were submitted to the Company’s stockholders. The proposals are described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 5, 2024. Proposal 4 was not voted on at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results were as follows:

Item 8.01 Other Events

In connection with the stockholders’ vote at the Annual Meeting 3,395,590 shares of common stock were tendered for redemption. As a result, approximately $38,098,520 (approximately $11.22 per share) has been removed from the Company’s Trust Account to pay such holders, without taking into account additional allocation of payments to cover any tax obligation of the Company, such as franchise taxes, but not including any excise tax, since that date. Following redemptions, the Company has 3,442,121 shares of public common stock outstanding, and approximately $17,873,794 remains in the Trust Account.

On June 18 2024, the Company filed a second amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State (the “Charter Amendment”), to extend the date to consummate a business combination until June 21, 2025, as approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting. A copy of the as-filed Charter Amendment is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1.

The Company has deposited the initial payment of $50,000 in its trust account established at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in connection with its initial public offering, to initially extend the date by which the Company can complete an initial business combination by one month to July 21, 2024.
