5C Lending Partners Corp. 8-K

What Happened

• 5C Lending Partners Corp. filed an 8-K on June 17, 2026 reporting the results of its Annual Meeting held June 16, 2026. A total of 8,921,874 shares of Capital Stock were represented (8,921,359 common shares and 515 shares of 12.0% Series A preferred), about 74.4% of outstanding shares as of the April 20, 2026 record date.
• The company reported election of two Class II directors, ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2026, and approval of an amendment to Section 7.2(a) of the charter to reduce the stockholder vote required to effect a liquidation proposal. The inspector of election certified the vote tabulations.

Key Details

• Shares represented: 8,921,874 total (8,921,359 Common; 515 Preferred) — ~74.4% of outstanding (record date April 20, 2026).
• Director elections:
  • Robert Gheewalla elected Class II director (Preferred holders voted separately): For = 515.
  • Michael Koester elected Class II director: For = 7,018,843.
• Auditor ratified: Deloitte & Touche LLP approved as independent registered public accounting firm — For = 8,921,874 (unanimous of shares represented).
• Charter amendment approved: Section 7.2(a) amended to reduce the stockholder vote required to effect a liquidation proposal — For = 8,921,874.

Why It Matters

• Director elections and auditor ratification confirm governance continuity for investors: two Class II directors were elected and Deloitte remains the company’s independent auditor for fiscal 2026.
• The approved charter amendment changes the voting threshold related to liquidation proposals (the filing states it reduces the required stockholder vote). That change alters a material governance rule and may affect how future liquidation proposals are approved; investors should review the amended charter language in the company’s proxy materials for specifics.
