Item 5.07.Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

On March 9, 2023, iStar Inc., a Maryland corporation (“STAR”), held a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to vote on the proposals identified in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus, dated January 30, 2023, which was first mailed to STAR stockholders on or about February 6, 2023.

 

As of the close of business on January 27, 2023, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 86,831,977 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of STAR (the “STAR Common Stock”) and 4,000,000 shares of Series D preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of STAR (the “STAR Series D Preferred Stock”) outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Stockholders entitled to cast 81.96% of all the votes entitled to be cast at the Special Meeting were present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting. A summary of the voting results for the following proposals, each of which is described in detail in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus, is set forth below:

 

1.Proposal to approve the merger of Safehold Inc., a Maryland corporation (“SAFE”), with and into STAR, with STAR continuing as the surviving corporation and operating under the name “Safehold Inc.” (“New SAFE”), as contemplated by the merger agreement entered into by and between STAR and SAFE on August 10, 2022 (the “STAR merger proposal”). The results of the vote were as follows:

4.Proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting from time to time, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, to approve each of the STAR merger proposal and the STAR stock issuance proposal (the “STAR adjournment proposal”). The results of the vote were as follows:

 

Votes For  Votes Against  Votes Abstained  Broker Non-Votes
66,660,077  5,192,673  131,555  —
