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

As previously disclosed, Trinity Place Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 5, 2024 (as amended, the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), with TPHS Lender LLC, the lender under the Company’s corporate credit facility (the “Company Investor”) and TPHS Investor LLC, an affiliate of Company Investor. On January 30, 2024, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a definitive consent solicitation statement on Schedule 14A (the “Consent Solicitation Statement”) seeking consent from stockholders to the stockholder proposals relating to the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Transactions”), as described in more detail in the Consent Solicitation Statement (the “Stockholder Proposals”). The affirmative vote of the Company’s stockholders of record as of the record date of January 2, 2024 holding a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) was required to authorize and adopt the Stockholder Proposals (the “Required Stockholder Consent”). On February 7, 2024, the Company received the Required Stockholder Consent, upon which such stockholder consents became irrevocable in accordance with the terms of the consent solicitation.

The Consent Solicitation Statement provides that the deadline for stockholders to return their consents to the Transactions is February 16, 2024, unless extended (the “Consent Deadline”).    Because the Company has obtained the Required Stockholder Consent, the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement may proceed with effectuating the transactions contemplated by the stockholder proposals prior to the Consent Deadline.  Until the earlier of the Consent Deadline or closing of the Transactions, the Company will continue to accept and tabulate consents. Although the Company has received the Required Stockholder Consent, the closing of the Transactions will not occur until the other conditions to closing set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement are satisfied or waived in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement.

The voting results of the consent solicitation as of February 7, 2024 are set forth below:

1. Authorization of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, as described in the Consent Solicitation Statement, by adoption of the following resolutions:

WHEREAS, the Board has adopted, approved and authorized the Stock Purchase Agreement, JV Operating Agreement and the Transactions contemplated thereby (the “Transactions”) and has recommended that the Company’s stockholders adopt resolutions authorizing the Stock Purchase Agreement, JV Operating Agreement and the Transactions.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Stock Purchase Agreement, JV Operating Agreement and the Transactions are hereby authorized in all respects; and be it further

RESOLVED, that, pursuant to Section 271(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, notwithstanding the approval of the Stock Purchase Agreement, JV Operating Agreement and the Transactions, the Board may abandon the Stock Purchase Agreement, JV Operating Agreement and the Transactions without further action by the Company’s stockholders, subject to the rights, if any, of third parties under any contract relating thereto.

Forward Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are not guarantees of future performance or results and involve risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted or quantified, and, consequently, the actual performance of the Company may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements about the potential benefits of the proposed Transactions; the prospective performance and outlook of the Company’s business, performance and opportunities; the ability of the parties to complete the proposed Transactions and the expected timing of completion of the proposed Transactions; as well as any assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Such statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such statements, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, (i) the risk that the proposed Transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all; (ii) the possibility that any or all of the other conditions to the consummation of the proposed Transactions may not be satisfied or waived; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement; (iv) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed Transactions on the Company’s ability to attract, motivate or retain key executives and employees, its ability to maintain relationships with its business counterparties, or its operating results and business generally; (v) risks related to the proposed Transactions diverting management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations; (vi) the amount of costs, fees and expenses related to the proposed Transactions; (vii) the risk that the Company’s stock price may decline significantly and/or that the Company will need to file for bankruptcy if the Transactions are not consummated; (viii) the risk of stockholder litigation in connection with the proposed Transactions, including resulting expense or delay; and (ix) other factors as set forth from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as may be updated or supplemented by any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or other filings with the SEC. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements which speak only as of the date they are made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or release any revisions to any forward-looking statement or to report any events or circumstances after the date of this communication or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by law.
