Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
AIkido Pharma Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) has determined that it will be unable to convene its scheduled annual meeting of stockholders on October 5, 2020 because it will not receive a sufficient number of votes to form a quorum (>50% of outstanding shares) to take action under Delaware law and the Company’s bylaws. The annual meeting has been rescheduled for 12:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on November 3, 2021 in order to provide additional time to obtain the votes required to reach a quorum. The Company has received votes from approximately 34% of the shares outstanding on the August 17, 2021 record date and needs only an additional approximately 17% to convene the meeting.
The annual meeting can be attended by stockholders using the same access information set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 26, 2021.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
The information set forth in Item 5.07 is incorporated herein by reference.
