Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

In connection with the Sale, XWELL held a special

meeting of XWELL stockholders on October 28, 2026 (the “Special Meeting”), at which the XWELL stockholders voted on the proposals

set forth below. The proposals are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities

and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 8, 2026 (as amended, the “Proxy Statement”) and first mailed to

the XWELL stockholders on October 8, 2026. The final voting results regarding each proposal are set forth below. There were 10,620,883

shares of XWELL common stock outstanding and entitled to vote as of October 7, 2026. 5,708,101 shares of XWELL common stock were represented

in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting, representing 53.74% of the total voting power of the Company, which constituted a quorum.

Proposal

No. 1: To approve and adopt the Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, XpresSpa, the Divestiture Companies, and

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K and any exhibits filed or furnished

herewith contain forward-looking statements (including within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended

(the “Exchange Act”), and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) concerning

XWELL, the Buyer, the proposed Sale and other matters. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Current

Report on Form 8-K are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Where, in any forward-looking

statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and

believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or be accomplished. These

statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other important factors that may cause our actual results,

performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by

the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as anticipate, believe,

could, estimate, expect, intend, may, plan, potential, target, predict, project, contemplate, should, will, would, continue, assume, forecast,

future, strategy, might, or the negative or plural of those terms or other similar expressions.

These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties,

as described more particularly in the definitive proxy statement that XWELL has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the

“SEC”) in connection with the proposed Sale. Any forward-looking statement in this Current Report on Form 8-K reflects our

current view with respect to future events, speaks only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is subject to these and

other risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Given these uncertainties, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions

of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our information

may be incomplete or limited, and we cannot guarantee future results. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors

and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties. Except

as required by applicable law, we do not plan, and assume no obligation, to update or revise these forward-looking statements for any

reason, even if new information becomes available in the future. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary

statements.
