Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
At the special meeting of the stockholders of Churchill Capital Corp V (the “Company”) held on March 14, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), a total of 44,612,883 (71.38%) shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock (the “Common Stock”) held of record at the close of business on February 15, 2023, the record date for the Special Meeting, were represented by proxy, which constituted a quorum.
The stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholders”) voted on the proposal to adopt an amendment (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”), which is described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 21, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement”), to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Extension”) from March 18, 2023 to December 18, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s board of directors) (the “Charter Amendment”).
The final voting results for the Extension Amendment Proposal were as follows:
For | Against | Abstain | Broker Non-Votes | |||
43,943,643 | 660,065 | 9,175 | N/A |
As there were sufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the “Adjournment Proposal” described in the Proxy Statement was not presented to the Stockholders.
The Extension will not be effective until the Charter Amendment has been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The board of directors of the Company retains the right to abandon and not implement the Extension at any time without any further action by the Stockholders.
Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
The information disclosed under Item 5.07 of this Current Report is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01 to the extent required herein.
Redemptions
In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, holders of 35,223,748 shares of Class A common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.07 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $354.7 million. As a result, approximately $354.7 million will be removed from the Trust Account to redeem such shares and 14,776,252 shares of Class A common stock will remain outstanding after the redemption has been effected. Upon payment of the redemption, approximately $148.9 million will remain in the Trust Account prior to any deposits made by Churchill Sponsor V LLC (the “Sponsor”) to the Company’s trust account pursuant to the non-interest bearing unsecured promissory note issued by the Company to the Sponsor, which was previously filed with the SEC on March 7, 2023.
