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

 

On December 23, 2015, stockholders of Mecklermedia Corporation (the “Company”), adopted and approved the Company’s Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution. Stockholders constituting the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding capital stock took this action by written consent in lieu of a special meeting of the stockholders.  

 

Stockholders holding an aggregate of 3,287,835 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 54.3% of its outstanding shares of common stock as of December 21, 2015, approved the plan of liquidation. The consents received constitute the only stockholder approval required for the plan of liquidation under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Certificate of Incorporation and amended and restated Bylaws. Accordingly, the plan of liquidation will not be submitted to the other stockholders of the Company for a vote.

 

The record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of the action by written consent was December 21, 2015. As of the record date, there were 6,057,662 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the special meeting of stockholders.
