Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On May 20, 2026, CuriosityStream Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) in a virtual format. Of the 59,287,600 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) that were issued and outstanding as of March 27, 2026, the record date, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, a total of 44,359,198 shares (74.82%) were present in person or represented by proxy, constituting a quorum for the transaction of business.

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders:

i.elected three Class III directors to the Company’s board of directors to serve a three-year term expiring at the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified (the “Director Election Proposal”);

ii.did not approve an amendment to the CuriosityStream Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Plan”) to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan from 10,725,000 shares to 11,725,000 shares (the “Plan Increase Proposal”);

iii.ratified the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 (the “Auditor Ratification Proposal”); and

iv.approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers (the “Executive Compensation Proposal”); and

v.approved, on an advisory basis, a frequency of one year for holding advisory votes on the compensation paid to our named executive officers.

Under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws, the vote necessary to approve the Director Election Proposal was the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The vote necessary to approve the Auditor Ratification Proposal and the Executive Compensation Proposal was the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation was determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the vote necessary to approve the Plan Increase Proposal was the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at a duly constituted meeting of the shareholders of the Company.

The proposals are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2026.
