Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holdings.
On April 1, 2024, Golden Star Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”) for the purposes of considering and voting upon:
(i) Proposal 1, or the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal: to approve that the sponsor and/or its designee will deposit the amount equal to $0.02 for each outstanding public share into the trust account (the “Monthly Extension Fee”) to extend the date which the Company must consummate its initial business combination. Beginning on the 4th of the first month following the approval of this proposal, each Monthly Extension Fee must be deposited into the trust account by the 4th of each month until February 4, 2025; and
(ii) Proposal 2, or the Adjournment Proposal: to direct the chairman of the Extraordinary General Meeting to adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting, there are not sufficient votes to approve Proposal 1.
Holders of 6,513,854 ordinary shares of the Company held as of record as of January 17, 2024, the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting, were present in person or by proxy, representing approximately 72.93% of the shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting, which present a quorum.
The Extension Fee Reduction Proposal was approved, the voting results of which was as follows:
| For | Against | Abstain | ||
| 4,244,838 | 2,269,016 | 0 |
As there were sufficient votes to approve the Extension Fee Reduction Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was not presented to the shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting.
