Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On December 28, 2023, Sigma Additive Solutions, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Sigma” or the “company”) convened its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), at which our stockholders were asked to consider and vote upon the following items:
(1) | the approval of the issuance of the shares of our common stock in exchange for all the capital stock of NextTrip Holdings, Inc. (“NextTrip”) and the other terms and conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement dated as of October 12, 2023, as amended, among Sigma, NextTrip and the other parties thereto and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Acquisition Proposal”); | |
(2) | the approval of an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (“Articles”) to change the company’s corporate name to “NextTrip, Inc.” following completion of the Acquisition (the “Name Change Proposal”); | |
(3) | the approval of an amendment to our Articles to increase the authorized shares of our common stock from 1,200,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares (the “Capital Increase Proposal”); | |
(4) | the election of two Class III directors to serve until the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal (the “Election of Directors Proposal”); | |
(5) | the approval, on a non-binding advisory vote basis, of the compensation payable to our named executive officers (“Say on Pay Proposal”); | |
(6) | the recommendation, on a non-binding advisory vote basis, of the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation (the “Frequency of Say on Pay Proposal”); | |
(7) | the approval of the Sigma Additive Solutions, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan Proposal”); | |
(8) | the ratification of Haynie & Company as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 (the “Ratification of Accountant Proposal”); and | |
(9) | the adjournment of the Annual Meeting by the Chairman thereof to a later date to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Annual Meeting, there are not sufficient votes to approve the Acquisition Proposal, Name Change Proposal or Capital Increase Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”). |
The foregoing proposals are more fully described in our definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 1, 2023.
At the close of business on November 20, 2023, the record date for the Annual Meeting, there were 780,423 shares of Sigma common stock issued and outstanding, which constituted all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the company as of the record date. At the Annual Meeting, 387,024 of the company’s 780,423 outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote as of the record date, or approximately 49.6%, were represented by proxy or in person (virtually), and, therefore, a quorum was present.
Due to difficulties securing votes from a significant number of Sigma’s stockholders, the company elected to adjourn the Annual Meeting in part in order to allow additional time for stockholders to vote on proposals 2 and 3 set forth above. Proposals 1 and 4 through 9 were presented to stockholders and voted on at the Annual Meeting on December 28, 2023. Each of the proposals on which action was taken at the Annual Meeting was approved, as reflected in the vote counts below:
