Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) of Agile Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) held on January 7, 2022, the following proposals were submitted to the stockholders of the Company:
Proposal 1: |
|
Approval of an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance from 150,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares. |
|
Proposal 2: |
|
Approval of the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to adopt Proposal 1. |
For more information about the foregoing proposals, see the Company’s Proxy Statement for the Special Meeting. Of the 121,396,033 shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, 78,474,595 shares, or approximately 64.64%, were represented at the meeting virtually in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum. The number of votes cast for, against, or withheld, as well as abstentions and broker non-votes, if applicable, in respect of each such proposal is set forth below:
Proposal 1: |
Amendment to Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation |
The Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance from 150,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares. The votes regarding this proposal were as follows:

Since there were sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies was not called for at the Special Meeting.
