On June 23, 2025, South 8 Energy, LLC (the “Company”) held its annual meeting to vote on four (4) proposals (the “2025 Annual Meeting”) pursuant to the Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 2, 2025 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”). The following proposals were presented at the 2025 Annual Meeting for a vote by the members: (1) to approve the Restatement of the Company’s Governing Documents, (2) to approve the reclassification of a portion of the Company's Class A Units, (3) to elect three (3) Governors to the Company’s Board of Governors and (4) to vote on the ability to adjourn or postpone the 2025 Annual Meeting. As described under Item 5.07, proposals No. 1 and 2 passed and the Board of Governors implemented the reclassification of the Company’s Units on June 24, 2025.

The Class A Units held by our Members owning 50,000 or more Class A Units are remaining as Class A Units; the Class A Units held by Members holding at least 10,001 but no more than 49,999 of our Class A Units have been reclassified into Class B Units and the Class A Units held by our Members holding 10,000 or less of our Class A Units have been reclassified into Class C Units.

The rights and preferences of the Class A Units, Class B Units and Class C Units are as described in the Definitive Proxy Statement and the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement which became effective on June 24, 2025. The Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
