Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

 

On September 7, 2021, Atossa Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) convened a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) for the purpose of voting on a proposal to increase authorized shares of common stock by 100 million. As of that date, the proposal did not have sufficient yes votes to pass so the Special Meeting was adjourned until October 7, 2021 to allow additional time for voting. As of October 6, 2021, approximately 58,445,262 votes were cast in favor of the proposal which is approximately 46.2% of the outstanding shares of common stock on the record date. A majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on the record date must vote in favor of the proposal for it to pass. Because the proposal has not garnered sufficient votes to pass, the Company is withdrawing the proposal and is cancelling the Special Meeting.
