SOAR · Volato Group, Inc.

Volato Group, Inc. conducted a virtual special meeting on May 7, 2026, where shareholders overwhelmingly approved six key proposals, clearing the path for its merger with M2i Global. The Merger Proposal, which adopts the Merger Agreement for Merger Sub to merge into M2i Global with M2i surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary, received strong support with over 13 million votes in favor out of approximately 15.1 million shares present, representing 99% approval as noted in the press release. This approval, alongside the Stock Issuance Proposal for issuing over 20% of shares to comply with NYSE American rules and effect a change of control, positions post-merger ownership at approximately 85% for M2i Global shareholders and 15% for Volato shareholders on a fully diluted basis. All seven director nominees for the combined company's staggered board were elected with minimal opposition, signaling alignment on leadership transition. The Name Change Proposal to 'M2i Global, Inc.' and approval of the 2026 Stock Incentive Plan further facilitate the strategic pivot into the critical minerals sector. The Reverse Stock Split authorization grants board discretion for a ratio between 1-for-2 and 1-for-25, providing flexibility for post-merger compliance. With quorum achieved at 38.92% participation and no adjournment needed, the merger advances toward closing by end of Q2 2026, subject to customary conditions, enabling Volato's expansion into mining, refining, and recycling of critical minerals using its software expertise.
