Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
As previously disclosed, on June 25, 2024, 1847 Holdings LLC (the “Company”) convened its 2024 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, there was not a sufficient number of common shares of the Company present or represented by proxy in order to constitute a quorum, so the Company adjourned the Annual Meeting, without transacting any business, to allow additional time for shareholders to vote and obtain a quorum.

At such reconvened Annual Meeting, a total of 2,138,680 common shares were represented in person or by valid proxies, which represented 40.41% of the common shares outstanding as of the record date, April 26, 2024, constituting a quorum.
Shareholders voted on four proposals at the Annual Meeting. The proposals are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, dated April 29, 2024, the relevant portions of which are incorporated herein by reference. The final results for the votes regarding each proposal are set forth below.
