On December 4, 2023, Dune Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) concluded a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) at which the stockholders of the Company voted on the following proposals, as set forth below, each of which is described in detail in the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 7, 2023, as supplemented by the additional definitive proxy soliciting materials filed on November 27, 2023, November 29, 2023, November 30, 2023, December 1, 2023 and December 4, 2023.

As of October 30, 2023, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 5,494,554 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. There were 4,610,347 shares of common stock represented by proxy at the Special Meeting. The final voting results for each proposal submitted to the stockholders of the Company at the Special Meeting are included below.

Each of the proposals described below was approved by the Company’s stockholders.

Proposal 1 – The Business Combination Proposal – to adopt the Unit Purchase Agreement, dated May 14, 2023 (as amended on August 22, 2023 and as further amended on November 24, 2023, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Global Gas Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Holdings”), Global Hydrogen Energy LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Global Hydrogen”), William Bennett Nance, Jr., an individual (“W. Nance”), Sergio Martinez, an individual (“S. Martinez”), and Barbara Guay Martinez, an individual (together with W. Nance and S. Martinez, the “Sellers”), which is attached to the Proxy Statement as Annex A-1 and Annex A-2 and pursuant to which: (a) the Company will contribute to Holdings all of its assets (excluding its interests in Holdings and the aggregate amount of cash proceeds required to satisfy any redemptions by the Company’s public stockholders (“Stockholder Redemptions”)), and in exchange therefor, Holdings will issue to the Company a number of common equity units of Holdings (“Holdings Common Units”) which will equal the number of total shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately after the closing (taking into account any equity financing agreements entered into by the Company between the signing date of the Purchase Agreement and the closing and giving effect to all Stockholder Redemptions) (such transactions, the “SPAC Contribution”) and (b) immediately after the SPAC Contribution, the Sellers will transfer, convey, assign and deliver all of the limited liability company equity interests of Global Hydrogen (“Global Hydrogen Units”) to Holdings in exchange for shares of the Company’s Class B voting non-economic common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock”), and Holdings Common Units (together with the SPAC Contribution, the “Combination Transactions”), as a result of which, (i) each issued and outstanding Global Hydrogen Unit immediately prior to the Combination Transactions will be held by Holdings, (ii) each Seller will receive an aggregate number of Holdings Common Units and shares of Class B Common Stock, in each case, equal to the number of Global Hydrogen Units held by such Seller, multiplied by the applicable exchange ratio, and (iii) the Company will change its name to Global Gas Corporation (“New Global”) and New Global will be the publicly traded reporting company.
