The Special Meeting was held at 2:00 p.m., Eastern time, on December 30, 2022, held virtually at https://www.cstproxy.com/phpventuresacquisition/2022, pursuant to due notice.

 

At the Special Meeting, the Solicitor of the Election: 1) examined the proxy tabulation report containing a record of proxies presented, and found that out of 7,480,900 shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, each of which entitles the holder to one vote per share, the holders of 6,527,307 shares were present at the virtual meeting or by proxy, representing 87.25% of the shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting; and 2) took a vote among the holders of common stock of the Company on the Extension Amendment Proposal No. 1, and the Trust Amendment Proposal No. 2. The results of such vote were as follows:

 

Proposal 1: Amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation giving the Company the right to extend the date by which the Company must (i) consummate a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (a “business combination”), (ii) cease its operations if it fails to complete such business combination, and (iii) redeem or repurchase 100% of the Company’s Class A common stock included as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering that closed on August 16, 2021 (the “IPO”) from February 16, 2023 (the “Termination Date”) by up to six (6) one-month extensions to August 16, 2023 at a price of $0.0525 per share per month, commencing February 16, 2023, our current Termination Date (which we refer to as the “Extension,” and such later date, the “Extended Deadline”) (such proposal is the “Extension Amendment Proposal”).
