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

On June 21, 2023, Thunder Bridge Capital Partners IV, 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) and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal (as defined below) to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Charter Amendment”) were 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 June 22, 2023. The terms of the Charter Amendment are set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 31, 2023.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Charter Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

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 July 2, 2023 to July 2, 2024 (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 amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to provide for the right of a holder of shares of Class B common stock of the Company to convert such shares into shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis prior to the closing of a business combination (the “Founder Share 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, 2023 (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.
