Item 5.03 Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

 

On December 16, 2022, Thunder Bridge Capital Partners III, Inc. (the “Company”) held a special meeting of its stockholders in lieu of an annual meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the Extension Amendment Proposal (as defined below) to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Charter Amendment”) was approved. Under Delaware law, the Charter Amendment took effect upon the filing of the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on December 16, 2022. The terms of the Charter Amendment are set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 29, 2022.

 

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

 

At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders were presented with a proposal to extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination from February 10, 2023 to August 10, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the Board) by amending the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”).

 

Also at the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders were presented with a proposal to ratify the selection by the Audit Committee of Grant Thornton LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022 (the “Auditor Ratification Proposal”).

 

Set forth below are the final voting results for the Extension Amendment Proposal. Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the approval of the Extension Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of holders of at least 65% of our outstanding shares of common stock (the “Common Stock”) who attend and vote at the Meeting with a quorum.

  

The Extension Amendment Proposal was approved with the following vote from the holders of Common Stock:

 

For     Against     Abstentions     Broker Non-Votes  
   42,591,138        424,847        39        0  

 

Set forth below are the final voting results for the Auditor Ratification Proposal. Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the approval of the Auditor Ratification Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by holders of Common Stock present (including virtually) or represented by proxy who vote at the Meeting with a quorum.

 

The Auditor Ratification Proposal was approved with the following vote from the holders of Common Stock:

 

For     Against     Abstentions     Broker Non-Votes  
   42,758,386       256,739         899        0  

 

In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Auditor Ratification Proposal, the holders of 40,302,259 shares of Class A common stock properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.10 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $407 million in connection with the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Auditor Ratification Proposal.

 

A proposal to adjourn the Meeting to a later date was not presented because there were enough votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Auditor Ratification Proposal.
