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

     

    On March 19, 2026, Pelican Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”). The record date for shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Extraordinary General Meeting was February 19, 2026. As of the close of business on the record date, there were 11,998,750 ordinary shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Of these shares, 7,034,878 ordinary shares (representing approximately 58.63%) were present virtually or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting, constituting a quorum.

     

    At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Company’s shareholders considered the proposals described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The final voting results for each proposal submitted to shareholders are set forth below.
