Item 8.01. Other Events
On August 28, 2026, Sezzle Inc. (the “Company”) announced that its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) will be held on Thursday, November 19, 2026. The Annual Meeting will be conducted exclusively online via live webcast. Additional details regarding the Annual Meeting, including instructions for attending and voting, will be included in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Because the date of the Annual Meeting is more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was held on June 10, 2025, the Company is providing the deadlines set forth below for the submission of stockholder proposals and director nominations for the Annual Meeting.
Stockholder Proposals for Inclusion in the Proxy Statement (Rule 14a-8)
Stockholders who wish to have a proposal considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) must ensure that such proposal is received by the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices, 700 Nicollet Mall, Suite 640, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402, no later than the close of business on September 23, 2026, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and send its proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Any such proposal must also comply with all applicable requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14a-8, in order to be eligible for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting.
Director Nominations and Other Stockholder Proposals (Advance Notice Under the Bylaws)
In accordance with the advance notice provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), stockholders who wish to nominate a candidate for election as a director or to bring other business before the Annual Meeting (other than a proposal submitted for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8) must deliver timely written notice to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices. To be timely for the Annual Meeting, in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Bylaws, such notice must be delivered on or before September 7, 2026, which is ten days after the day on which the date of the Annual Meeting is first disclosed in a public announcement. Any such notice must also comply with the informational and other requirements set forth in the Bylaws.
Universal Proxy Rules (Rule 14a-19)
In addition to satisfying the requirements of the Bylaws, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must also comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act. To the extent any information is required by Rule 14a-19 that is not required under our Bylaws, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must ensure that information is received by the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices no later than September 20, 2026, which is the later of 60 calendar days prior to the date of the Annual Meeting and the 10th calendar day following the day on which the Company first publicly announced the date of the Annual Meeting.
