Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote

On August 7, 2025, Graphjet Technology (the “Company”)
held an extraordinary general meeting (the “EGM”) of the shareholders (the “Shareholders”) of the
Company conducted via live webcast at https://www.cstproxy.com/graphjettech/2025
and telephone access. At the EGM, the Shareholders present and entitled to vote at the EGM cast their votes and approved the proposals
set forth in the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 11, 2025, including effecting the consolidation of every issued and unissued
ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company, at a ratio within a range of not less than 1-for-50 and not greater
than 1-for-150 (the “Share Consolidation”), with the exact ratio to be determined by further action at the discretion
of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”).
An aggregate of 148,037,022 ordinary shares of
the Company, that were entitled to vote as of the record date of July 3, 2025, were represented in person or by proxy at the EGM. Accordingly,
a quorum was present, and the EGM was lawfully convened for conducting the business to be presented at the Meeting.
The Shareholders voted on the following proposals
at the EGM, each of which was approved:
| (1) | The Share Capital Reorganization Proposal – to approve, as an ordinary resolution, the re-designation and
re-classification of the Company’s authorized share capital from US$50,000 divided into 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares
of US$0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares of US$0.0001 per share (“Class
B Ordinary Shares”) and 1,000,000 preference shares of US$0.0001 per share (“Preference Shares”) to US$50,000
of 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares of US$0.0001 per share with each Class A Ordinary Share, Class B Ordinary Share and Preference
Share whether in issue or not, re-designated and re-classified into the equivalent number of Class A ordinary shares of US$0.0001
(the “Share Capital Reorganization”) each having the rights and privileges attaching to such Class A Ordinary Shares
as set out in, and being subject to the limitations more particularly set forth in, the Company’s A&R M&A (as defined below) |

| (2) | The Share Consolidation Proposal – subject to and immediately following the Share Capital
Reorganization being effected, to approve, as an ordinary resolution, in accordance with article 9 of the Company’s current amended
and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”), the consolidation of every issued and unissued
Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “New Class A Ordinary Shares”), at a ratio
within a range of not less than 1-for-50 and not greater than 1-for-150 (the “Share Consolidation”), with
the exact ratio to be determined by further action at the discretion of the Board, to be effective on a date on or prior to August 13,
2025 as may be determined by the Board and announced by the Company (the “Effective Date”), so that a shareholder holding
every 50 to 150 New Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Pre-Consolidation Class A Ordinary Shares”) will hold 1 New
Class A Ordinary Share of par value ranging from US$0.005 to US$0.015 each (the “Post-Consolidation Class A Ordinary Shares”),
with such Post-Consolidation Class A Ordinary Shares having the same rights and being subject to the same restrictions as the Pre-Consolidation Class
A Ordinary Shares as set out in the A&R M&A in effect at the time of Effective Date, and any fractional shares created as a result
of the Share Consolidation would be rounded up to the nearest whole share. |
In respect of any and all fractional
entitlements to the issued consolidated shares of the Company resulting from the Share Consolidation, the Board be authorized to settle
as it considers expedient any difficulty which arises in relation to the Share Consolidation, including but without prejudice to the generality
of the foregoing: rounding up fractions of shares issued to or registered in the name of such Shareholders of the Company following or
as a result of the Share Consolidation to the nearest whole share, and/or capitalizing all or any part of any amount for the time being
standing to the credit of any reserve or fund of the Company (including its share premium account and profit and loss account) whether
or not the same is available for distribution and applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be issued to the Shareholders of the
Company to round up any fractions of shares issued to or registered in the name of such Shareholders of the Company following or as a
result of the Share Consolidation.

form annexed to this proxy statement (the “A&R M&A”) in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the Company’s
Articles, to reflect the Share Capital Reorganization, the Share Consolidation and the terms of the New Class A Ordinary Shares. |

and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of any of the foregoing
proposals or (y) if our Board determines before the Extraordinary General Meeting that it is not necessary or no longer desirable to proceed
with the other proposals (the “Adjournment Proposal”, and together with the Share Consolidation Proposal, the Share

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
The information in this Current Report on Form
8-K contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,”
“project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,”
“aim,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,”
“would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result” and similar expressions, but
the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections
and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks
and uncertainties. Actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely
on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially
from the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including but not limited to: (i) changes in the markets in which
the Company competes, including with respect to its competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes; (ii) the risk that
the Company will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plans, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at
all; (iii) The Company is beginning the commercialization of its technology and it may not have an accurate estimate of future capital
expenditures and future revenue; (iv) statements regarding the Company’s industry and market size; (v) financial condition and performance
of the Company, including the anticipated benefits, the implied enterprise value, the financial condition, liquidity, results of operations,
the products, the expected future performance and market opportunities of the Company; (vi) The Company’s ability to develop and
manufacture its graphene and graphite products; (vii) The Company’s ability to return to and maintain compliance with Nasdaq continued
listing standards; and (viii) those factors discussed in our filings with the SEC. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors
and the other risks and uncertainties that will be described in the “Risk Factors” section of the documents to be filed by
the Company from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward- looking statements, and while the Company
may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they assume no obligation to update or revise these
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required by applicable law. The
Company does not give any assurance that it will achieve its expectations.
