Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

A Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) of Breeze Holdings Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was held via webcast on June 21, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The number of shares of common stock that voted on matters presented at the Special Meeting was 3,449,241, representing 80.2% of the 4,299,279 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, and entitled to vote as of May 13, 2024, the record date for the Special Meeting.

 

Each of the proposals described below was approved by the Company’s stockholders of record. In connection with the special meeting, 265,564 shares of the Company’s common stock were redeemed (the “Redemption”), with 4,033,712 shares of Common Stock remaining outstanding after the Redemption; 893,712 shares of Common Stock remaining outstanding after the Redemption are shares issued in connection with our initial public offering (the “Public Shares”). Our public stockholders will continue to have the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to the vote to approve the consummation of our initial business combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations described herein.

 

Following the Redemption, approximately $10,371,000 remains on deposit in our trust account.

 

If we are unable to complete an initial business combination on or before December 26, 2024 (unless the stockholders approve a further amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination), we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

 

The following is a list of matters considered and approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Special Meeting:

 

1.

To amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination or, if it fails to do so, cease its operations and redeem or repurchase 100% of the shares of the Company’s common stock issued in the Company’s IPO, from June 26, 2024 monthly for up to six additional months at the election of the Company, ultimately until as late as December 26, 2024.
