As previously disclosed, Trillion Energy International Inc. (the “Company”) convened its 2021 virtual annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on July 7, 2021. The Company adjourned the Annual Meeting to allow additional time for the Company to solicit additional votes to establish a quorum and additional time for stockholders to vote on the proposals described in the Company’s notice of meeting and definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 8, 2021, as supplemented on July 14, 2021 (the “Proxy Statement”). The adjourned Annual Meeting was reconvened on July 21, 2021.

 

A total of 83,411,262 shares of common stock were present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, representing approximately 54.02% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the May 12, 2021 record date. The following are the voting results for the proposals considered and voted upon at the Annual Meeting, each of which was described in the Proxy Statement.
