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

On August 17, 2016, Qlik Technologies Inc. (“Qlik”) held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) at the offices of Ballard Spahr LLP, 1735 Market Street, 48th Floor, Philadelphia, PA 19103.

As of the record date, July 6, 2016, there were 94,898,127 shares of common stock of Qlik eligible to be voted at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, 75,540,777 shares, or approximately 79.60% of all outstanding shares of common stock, were present either in person or by proxy. Three matters were voted upon at the special meeting, with the Board of Directors of Qlik recommending a vote “FOR” in connection with each of the proposals voted upon, as further described in the definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 6, 2016 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”).

Proposal No. 1 (the “Merger Proposal”) was to consider and vote on the proposal to adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 2, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Qlik, Project Alpha Holding, LLC (“Parent”) and Project Alpha Merger Corp. (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Qlik (the “Merger”), and Qlik will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

Proposal No. 2 (the “Adjournment Proposal”) was to consider and vote on any proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there were insufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement at the time of the Special Meeting.

Proposal No. 3 (the “Merger Compensation Proposal”) was to consider and vote on the proposal to approve, by non-binding, advisory vote, compensation that will or may become payable by Qlik to its named executive officers in connection with the Merger.

The Adjournment Proposal was not submitted for a vote. The Merger Proposal and the Merger Compensation Proposal were approved. The table below shows the final voting results from the Special Meeting.

NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” that do not directly or exclusively relate to historical facts.

Factors that may contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, the possibility that the Merger will not close when expected, if at all. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements can be found in the risks detailed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in its most recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, factors and matters described or incorporated by reference in this document or in the Definitive Proxy Statement.
