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

 

On December 1, 2023, as approved by its stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders held on December 1, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), Roth CH Acquisition V Co., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed with the Delaware Secretary of State an amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”), to, among other things, (i) give the Company the right to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination up to twelve (12) times, each such extension for an additional one (1) month period (each, an “Extension”), from December 4, 2023 to December 3, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending 36 months from the consummation of the IPO) and (ii) expand the methods that the Company may employ to not become subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The foregoing description of the Charter Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Charter Amendment, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Adoption of the Trust Liquidation Amendment required approval by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The voting results were as follows:

 

FOR   AGAINST   ABSTAIN   BROKER NON-VOTES
