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

 

At the Special Meeting of Stockholders of Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company (the “Company”) held on September 29, 2022 (the “Special Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders voted on the proposal below, which is described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 6, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”). The proposal was approved by the requisite vote of the Company’s stockholders. The number of votes cast for and against and the number of abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to the proposal is set forth below.

 

1.Proposal to approve an amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect, at the discretion of our Board of Directors on or prior to May 5, 2023, a reverse stock split of all of the outstanding shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), at a ratio in the range of 1-for-10 to 1-for-25 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), such ratio to be determined by our Board of Directors in its discretion and publicly disclosed prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, whereby each outstanding 10 to 25 shares would be combined, converted and changed into 1 share of our Common Stock.

 

For   Against   Abstentions   Broker Non-Votes
62,212,072   12,007,126   339,892   0

 

Because the Reverse Stock Split proposal was approved, a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Reverse Stock Split proposal was not needed and, therefore, no vote was taken on that proposal.
