Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On September 28, 2022, SCYNEXIS, Inc. held its 2022 Special Meeting of Stockholders to approve the proposal to amend SCYNEXIS’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 150,000,000 (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”) as described in detail in SCYNEXIS’s definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 18, 2022.
The final voting results for the Charter Amendment Proposal submitted to a vote of stockholders at the Special Meeting, resulting in the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, are as follows:

In connection with the Special Meeting, SCYNEXIS also solicited proxies with respect to a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”). Because there were sufficient votes represented at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was moot and was not presented for approval by SCYNEXIS’s stockholders at the Special Meeting.
