At the 2023 Annual General Meeting (the “Annual Meeting”) held on May 25, 2023, the shareholders of FTAI Aviation Ltd. (the “Company”) voted on the matters described below.

 

(1)  The Company’s shareholders elected three Class I directors, who comprise all the directors of such class, to serve until the 2026 Annual General Meeting and until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified. The numbers of shares that voted for the election of such directors, withheld authority to vote for such directors, and represented broker non-votes with respect to this proposal are summarized in the table below.

 

(2)  The Company’s shareholders ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. The numbers of shares that voted for, against and abstained from voting for or against the ratification of the selection of Ernst & Young LLP are summarized in the table below.

 

 

* Broker non-votes are instances where a broker holding shares of record for a beneficial owner does not vote the shares because it has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and therefore is precluded by the rules of The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) from voting on a particular matter. Under Nasdaq rules, when a broker holding shares in “street name” does not receive voting instructions from a beneficial owner, the broker has discretionary authority to vote on certain routine matters but is prohibited from voting on non-routine matters. Brokers who did not receive instructions were not entitled to vote on the election of directors, but they were entitled to vote on the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
