Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
On March 22, 2023, Direct Selling Acquisition Corp. (“DSAQ”) convened and then adjourned until March 24, 2023 at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, without conducting any other business, DSAQ’s special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) relating to its previously announced proposed extension of its deadline to complete an initial business combination. The only proposal submitted for a vote of the stockholders at the Special Meeting was the approval of the adjournment of such meeting to a later date or dates (the “Adjournment Proposal”). The Adjournment Proposal is described in greater detail in the definitive proxy statement of DSAQ, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 2, 2023, as supplemented by the additional definitive proxy materials filed on March 10, 2023 and March 17, 2023 (the “Extension Proxy Statement”).
As of the close of business on February 21, 2023, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 23,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) and 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”, and together with Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), outstanding. Each share of Common Stock was entitled to one vote on the Adjournment Proposal. The shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock were voted as a single class. A total of 23,527,389 shares of common stock, representing approximately 81.83% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote, were present in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum to conduct business.
