Special Meeting
As previously disclosed, on May 6, 2025, Jet.AI Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) with flyExclusive, Inc. (“flyExclusive”), FlyX Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of flyExclusive (“Merger Sub”), and Jet.AI SpinCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“SpinCo”), pursuant to which (i) as a condition to closing, the Company will distribute all of the shares of SpinCo, on a pro rata basis, to the Company’s stockholders (the “Distribution”) and (ii) Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo (the “Merger” and, together with the Distribution and all other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”) with SpinCo surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of flyExclusive.
The Company is holding a special meeting of stockholders to vote on a proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and the Transactions (the “Special Meeting”), which are each described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 4, 2026 (the “Proxy Statement”). The Proxy Statement was first mailed to the Company’s stockholders on May 13, 2026. As of the close of business on the record date for the Special Meeting, May 8, 2026, there were 1,421,721 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.
On June 11, 2026, the Company convened the Special Meeting and a total of 486,285 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 34.2% of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote, were represented in person or by valid proxies. However, because approval of the Transactions requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of the record date for the Special Meeting, the Company adjourned the Special Meeting until 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 23, 2026.
On June 23, 2026, the Company reconvened the Special Meeting and a total of 688,430 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 48.4% of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote, were represented in person or by valid proxies. While approximately 99.0% of the votes cast prior to the reconvened Special Meeting were cast in favor of the Transactions, the Company again adjourned the Special Meeting until 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 2, 2026 to permit further solicitation of proxies because there were insufficient votes cast or the approval of the Transactions.
There is no change to the location, record date, purpose, or any of the proposals to be acted upon at the Special Meeting. Stockholders who have already submitted proxies or voting instructions need not take any further action unless they wish to change their vote. Proxies previously submitted will be voted at the reconvened Special Meeting unless properly revoked in accordance with the procedures described in the Proxy Statement.
Distribution Record Date
As previously disclosed, on June 5, 2026, the Company announced that it established June 15, 2026 as the record date for the Distribution. On June 12, 2026, in connection with the initial adjournment of the Special Meeting, the Company changed the record date for the Distribution from June 15, 2026 to June 25, 2026.
On June 23, 2026, in connection with the second adjournment of the Special Meeting, the Company changed the record date for the Distribution from June 25, 2026 to July 6, 2026. As such, if the Transactions are approved at the Special Meeting and the parties close the Transactions, stockholders of record of the Company’s common stock as of July 6, 2026, will be entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, all outstanding shares of SpinCo prior to the completion of the Merger. Upon completion of the Merger, the SpinCo shares distributed to the Company’s stockholders will convert into the right to receive shares of flyExclusive Class A common stock, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement.
The completion of the Transactions, including the Distribution and Merger, remains subject to stockholder approval and the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions.
Press Release
On June 24, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the second adjournment of the Special Meeting and the change to the Distribution record date. A copy of the press release is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain statements that may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements” within the federal securities laws, including the safe harbor provisions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future performance or future financial condition. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our company, our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strategy,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results, including the failure to obtain stockholder approval, the failure to satisfy closing conditions, and broader market conditions. As a result, caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements can be found in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports filed with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as provided by law.
Additional Information and Where to Find It
