Item 8.01.        Other Events.

 

On June 14, 2022, Romeo Power, Inc. (the “Company”) called to order its 2022 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The Company then adjourned the Annual Meeting without opening the polls on the matters that were scheduled to be submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting in order to provide additional time to solicit proxies with respect to the proposal to amend the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of authorized Common Stock from 250,000,000 to 350,000,000. The Annual Meeting has been adjourned to Thursday, June 30, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) with respect to all proposals described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 28, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”). No changes have been made in the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the Annual Meeting and described in the Proxy Statement.

 

The adjourned Annual Meeting will resume in a virtual format only via live webcast on June 30, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/RMO2022. The record date for determining stockholders eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting will remain the close of business on April 18, 2022. Stockholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise voted and who do not want to change their vote do not need to take any action. Proxies previously submitted with respect to the Annual Meeting will be voted on all proposals at the adjourned Annual Meeting unless properly revoked.

 

During the current adjournment, polls remain open and the Company continues to solicit votes from its stockholders with respect to all proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement.

 

At the time the Annual Meeting was called to order, proxies had been submitted by stockholders representing approximately 54% of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, which constituted a quorum. At the time of the Annual Meeting, votes were sufficient to approve each of Proposals 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 as set forth in the Proxy Statement. Although votes cast are approximately 84% in favor of Proposal 6, the Amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, at the time the Annual Meeting was called to order, there were not sufficient votes to approve Proposal 6, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of the Company entitled to vote on the proposal.
