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

On March 14, 2024, Southport Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to vote upon the Extension Amendment Proposal (as defined below). At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Extension Amendment Proposal, and promptly thereafter, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Extension Amendment”) to implement the Extension Amendment Proposal.

The foregoing description of the Extension Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Extension Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

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

On March 14, 2024, the Company convened the Special Meeting for the purposes of considering and voting upon the following proposals, each of which is described in further detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 7, 2024:

·	a proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to extend the<br>date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination (the “Extension”) from March 14, 2024 to December<br>14, 2024 (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”); and
·	a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to<br>permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal<br>or if the Company determines that additional time is necessary to effectuate the Extension (the “Adjournment Proposal”).
---	---

Holders of 7,248,991 shares of common stock of the Company held of record as of March 4, 2024, the record date for the Special Meeting, were present virtually or by proxy, representing approximately 73.2% of the voting power of the Company’s shares of common stock as of the record date for the Special Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business.

A summary of the voting results at the Special Meeting is set forth below.

Proposal No. 1: The Extension Amendment Proposal

The voting results for the Extension Amendment Proposal were as follows:

For	Against	Abstain
7,145,033	103,958	0

Proposal No. 2: The Adjournment Proposal

The Company had solicited proxies in favor of an Adjournment Proposal which would have given the Company authority to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if the Company determined that additional time was necessary to effectuate the Extension. As sufficient shares were voted in favor of the Extension Amendment Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was not voted upon at the Special Meeting.

Item 8.01	Other Events.

In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 2,986,952 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company (“Class A Common Stock”) properly exercised their right to redeem their shares (and did not withdraw their redemption) for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.88 per share of Class A Common Stock, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $32 million.

3. An amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate, which amended the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate, was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 9, 2023 (the “First Amendment”).

4. This Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate, as amended by the First Amendment (this “Amendment”), further amends the Amended and Restated Certificate.

5. This Amendment has been approved and declared advisable by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, and was duly adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of 65% of the common stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders in accordance with the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate and Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended from time to time (the “DGCL”).

6. This Amendment shall become effective on the date of filing with the Secretary of State of Delaware.

7. The text of Section 9.1(b) of Article IX is hereby restated and amended in its entirety to read as follows:

Except for withdrawals of interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account to the extent necessary to pay the Corporation’s taxes (“Permitted Withdrawals”), none of the funds held in the Trust Account (including the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account) will be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of one hundred percent (100%) of the Offering Shares (as defined below) if the Corporation is unable to complete its initial Business Combination by December 14, 2024 (the “Deadline Date”) and (iii) the redemption of shares in connection with a vote seeking to amend any provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Corporation’s obligation to provide Public Stockholders with the opportunity to have their Offering Shares redeemed in connection with an initial Business Combination or to redeem one hundred percent (100%) of the Offering Shares if the Corporation has not consummated an initial Business Combination by the Deadline Date or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity (as described in Section 9.7).
