Item 5.07.
Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On May 8, 2026, Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“Sun Country” or the “Company”) held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to consider the proposals set forth in the definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2026, as supplemented on April 28, 2026 (as supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”), related to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (such agreement, as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Allegiant Travel Company, a Nevada corporation (“Allegiant”), Mirage Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant (“Merger Sub 1”), and Sawdust Merger Sub, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant (“Merger Sub 2”), providing for the merger of Merger Sub 1 with and into Sun Country (the “First Merger”), with Sun Country surviving the First Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant and immediately following the First Merger, the merger of Sun Country with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub 2 surviving the Second Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant..
 
As of March 25, 2026, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were (i) 54,191,637 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (“Sun Country Common Stock”), issued and outstanding, each of which was entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, a total of 44,043,534 shares of Sun Country Common Stock, representing approximately 81.27% of the Sun Country Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, were present virtually or by proxy, constituting a quorum to conduct business.
 
At the Special Meeting the following proposals were considered:
 

(1)
the proposal to approve the adoption of the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement Proposal”);
 

(2)
the proposal to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation that will or may become payable by Sun Country to its named executive officers in connection with the Mergers (the “Compensation Proposal”); and
 

(3)
the proposal to approve any adjournment of the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement at the time of the Special Meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”).
 
The Merger Agreement Proposal and the Compensation Proposal were approved by the requisite votes of the Company’s stockholders. Sufficient votes were received to approve the Adjournment Proposal, but such an adjournment was not necessary in light of the approval of the Merger Agreement Proposal. The final voting results for each proposal are described below. For more information on each of these proposals, please refer to the Proxy Statement.
