Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On February 15, 2024, Fresh Tracks Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) convened a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”), and held votes on the following proposals:
Proposal 1 – To approve the liquidation and dissolution of the Company and the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution (the “Plan of Dissolution”), which, if approved, will authorize the Company and the Board of Directors to liquidate and dissolve the Company in accordance with the Plan of Dissolution (the “Dissolution Proposal”).
| For | Against | Abstain | Broker Non-Votes | |||||||||||||||||
| 2,528,217 | 72,980 | 16,015 | 0 | |||||||||||||||||
Proposal 2 - To approve one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Dissolution Proposal or in the absence of a quorum.
| For | Against | Abstain | Broker Non-Votes | |||||||||||||||||
| 2,533,041 | 66,225 | 17,946 | 0 | |||||||||||||||||
Proposal 2 was approved, as it received the affirmative requisite vote of the holders of shares of the Company’s common stock. Although Proposal 2 was approved, the Company determined that a further adjournment of the Special Meeting was not necessary or appropriate. While Proposal 1 received the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting, Proposal 1 was not approved, as it did not receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote.
Each proposal is described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Special Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 17, 2024.
